Not quite a resurrection, as the very alive Monsieur Tellier is strutting back onto American stages for a sweet run of dates this Spring, kicking off tomorrow in Viva’s own backyard. With him he brings two new remix EPs, featuring some of the most striking tracks off of his critically adored Sexuality album...

Dear Daily Update, It’s been a while, I know I shouldn’t have kept you waiting! I got back from gay Paris a few weeks ago and have been recuperating….let me tell you I will never eat petit déjeuner in that town again! You can read the juicy details when my gal pal Lesley posts...

Yesterday, American Apparel won Apparel Magazine’s first annual Sustainability All-Star award. After our nomination by the California Fashion Association (Levi’s nominated themselves, but after 150 years of awesomeness, we’re willing to overlook it), the editors chose American Apparel...

OMJ, Everybody’s favorite Jonny Makeup and Cody from Ssion recently did a very Teen Beat esque interview over the telephone at Viva Radio. It’s unedited, totally explicit, and very appropriately inappropriate for anything going onto a blog in the year 2009. I don’t even know what...

If I were to visit New York, my first stop would be Harlem, not because we have a store there, but because of Dipset! In my opinion Dipset is one of the best rap groups from New York. Now, some say they are no longer a group and others say it’s a brotherly argument. Whatever the deal is, let’s...
