Sundance. The parties and movies keep coming…
The parties: The Sundance Channel had a party, and it was everything an industry party should be: exclusive, relaxed, and prepped with finger food. Seriously, they had mini s’mores, who can beat that? It was low on celebrity, but...
Musings from Sundance: Day 1. Where did the Artists and shiny black cars go?

Sena Cech: The last rock star model.
If you had asked Sena Cech when she first started modeling at the age of 16 (some 10 years ago) who Kate Moss was she would have looked at you with a blank stare. Yet ironically it's this same...
