Robin Givens styled by Mr. Bradshaw for TightRope Magazine

Last week, I had the absolute pleasure of working with the UBER talented actress, Robin Givens, for an AMAZING fashion spread in Tightrope Magazine.

Celebrity Photographer,Marcus Redd, came up with the perfect theme for Ms. Givens’ shoot: “Sex In The City” meets Rock & Roll edge! & by the looks of these behind the scenes pictures taken by yours truly, I think I executed it PERFECTLY!

Special thanks to Deron Cole (Hair Stylist), Reggie Dowdley (Make-Up Artist), Delise Aubrey (Editor in Chief of Tightrope Magazine) & the entire glam squad for making this such a fun & productive shoot!

What do you GEMS make of my work with Ms. Givens?

Did I do a good job in giving her a different look?

Miss Tila styled by Mr. Bradshaw

Last month, Miss Tila & I attended Fred Segal’s 40th Anniversary Shoe Party & you GEMS have been hounding me to discuss what she wore!

Well, let me break it DOWN for you:

Dress by Carmelita Couture

Corset Belt & Shoes & studded clutch all by Burberry

Bow Headband by American Apparel

Necklace by Ventidue

Gold Cuff is Tila’s Own

I hope you GEMS enjoyed today’s Fashion Break with me!

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF MISS TILA’S ENSEMBLE?

SHARE YOUR THOUGHTS WITH ME BELOW!

The music video for Eminem’s catchy track featuring Rihanna “LOVE THE WAY YOU LIE” has finally surfaced the internet & I am obsessed with it!

Meagan Fox & “LOST” actor, Dominic Monaghan, play the two love interests in the music video that suffer from an abusive relationship.

Domestic Violence is a serious epidemic & I’m glad that this video shows how bad it can be for couples who suffer from an abusive spouse.

I grew up in a household like this & as a child brought up in such a chaotic environment, I can honestly say that it isn’t healthy for the children involved.

Aside from this, I recently got out of an abusive relationship myself so this video really hits home.

I got out just in time & if you’re reading this & 2nd guessing whether or not you should stay in an abusive relationship, I hope by the time you finish reading this & watching the video, you have the answer you’ve  been looking for.

So enjoy the video & share your thoughts with me below.

Dani Wright & Mr. Bradshaw on the set of her "Fed Up" Musi Video!

Last weekend, I had the absolute pleasure of working with the phenomenal artist that is Ms. Dani Wright!

We shot the Music Video for her latest single “Fed Up” in Los Angeles, CA & it co-stars Baldwin Hills actor, Justin Walker & Disney Actress, Kayla Pratt.

It was truly a magnificent experience getting to brand someone who’s spirit & sound are as beautiful on the outside as they are on the inside!

Check out the behind the scenes footage from the set of her shoot & share your thoughts on the wardrobe after the JUMP!

Mr. Bradshaw & Alycia Bellamy at R&B Live inside the Key Club in Hollywood, California

Last night, I had the absolute pleasure of attending the R&B Live showcase held inside the Key Club in Hollywood, California.

The host of the evening was none other than R&B sensation himself, Tank.

The night consisted of the best R&B singers of the early 90′s & some of today’s, with Brandy Norwood as the main act!

Around midnight, Ray J, Brandy’s brother, introduced his sister to the stage & everyone took notice of how GREAT she looked & sounded!

She sang some of her all time greatest hits like “What About Us,” “Almost Doesn’t Count,” “I Wanna Be Down!” & even a rendition of “At Last!”

Brandy brought everyone to a standing Ovation as the night ended with Tank calling her the, “HOTTEST R&B SINGER OF OUR TIME!”

& I couldn’t agree more!

Check out the pictures & Videos provided above & share your thoughts on Brandy’s performance after the JUMP!

Last week, I had the opportunity to work with “Vampire Diaries” actress, Candice Accola, for an upcoming 8 page style spread in Regard Magazine.

I wanted to feature one of my favorite cocktail dress designers, Dalia McPhee www.daliaonline.com, & showcase the various ways her line can be worn!

I took your average dress & transformed each one of them into a life of their own!

We tried the Avant Garde look, the Grecian Goddess Look, The “Up-”Town” Girl Look, The 1940′s Glam Look, & the EMPOWERING woman look & many more on Candice & she looked STUNNING in every one of them!

Can you GEMS guess which is which from the pictures above?

Be sure to check out www.regardmag.com periodically to see the rest of the shoot once the issue is released!

Special thanks to Candice Accola, photographer Dimitry Loiseau www.dimitryl.com, Make Up & Hair Artist Valerie Noble www.valerienoble.com, 2nd key stylist Chris Emoch & the entire glam squad for making this shoot as SPECTACULAR as it was!

So what do you think of the shoot so far?

Pretty amazing, right?

Share your thoughts with me after the JUMP!

Since the day I changed my look, I received a massive amount of calls, emails, texts, etc. from photographers asking if they could set up a photo shoot for me.

I am not the model type & I hardly EVER have time to do anything but work but I do enjoy being on a set so I figured, WHY NOT?

But spending a day with me won’t be as easy as you think!

SO here’s the Challenge:

I’M LOOKING FOR THE MOST CREATIVE PHOTOGRAPHER TO COME UP WITH A WILD CONCEPT LIKE THE PICTURES POSTED ABOVE. IT’S NO SECRET THAT I AM A HUGE FAN OF DAVID LACHAPELLE’S WORK. THUS, I USED HIS IMAGES AS REFRENCES TO ANYONE LOOKING TO BOOK A PHOTO SHOOT WITH ME. THE PHOTOGRAPHER THAT COMES UP WITH THE BEST CONCEPT FOR THE SHOOT WILL BE PROVIDED WITH A FULL TEAM OF ASSISTANTS, HAIR STYLIST, MAKE-UP ARTIST, & STYLING PROVIDED BY ME. I WILL ALSO RUN A FEATURE ON MY WEBSITE WHICH WILL GET THAT PERSON TONS OF EXPOSURE. LASTLY, I WILL SUBMIT THE FINAL PRINTS TO THE MAGAZINE’S I WORK CLOSELY WITH FOR A POSIBLITY TO GET THEIR WORK PUBLISHED IN A REAL MAGAZINE!

THAT’S A PRETTY BIG PRIZE FOR ANYONE LOOKING TO MAKE A NAME FOR THEMSELVES!

NOW ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS COME UP WITH SOMETHING OUT OF THIS WORLD & SUBMIT IT TO: THEMRBRADSHAW@YAHOO.COM

I LOOK FORWARD TO HEARING FROM ALL YOU ASPIRING PROSPECTS SOON!

HAPPY CONJURING!

A few months back, I told you GEMS about how I was styling former Destiny’s Child member, Farrah Franklin, for her starring role in the Yuk Mouth music video entitled “Hard Way.”

The song also features a very dear friend of mine, Janine V & the beautiful Bria Myles!

It was truly a pleasure to work with such a diverse group of gorgeous & talented women!

Special thanks to Natalia Romano & Velvet Angels Footwear for the AMAZING custom pieces produced for this video!

Check out the video posted above & share your thoughts on Farrah’s wardrobe with me after the JUMP!

Mr. Bradshaw's New look as of 5.20.10

Mr. Bradshaw clean cut! No facial Hair & a simple Buzz cut

There comes a time in every person’s life where change is necessary….

Yesterday, I decided to make a drastic change to my own personal look!

I thought about a few options & couldn’t decide what to do!

After much thought, I decided to shave  my head & facial hair!

Check out my new look in the pictures above!

Many of you keep asking me what made me do this impulsive move?

I received emails asking if I had a nervous breakdown or if I was on drugs.

NONE OF THOSE ABSURD ALLEGATIONS CAUSED ME TO CUT MY HAIR!

The truth is that I’ve been wanting to do something different with my look for quite some time.

& I was inspired by 1 of my many fashion icons, Ms. Grace Jones!

So I did the unthinkable & completely unpredictable & I’m happy with my new look!

Are you GEMS digging it?
