Another one, but not just any one. Mark’s South Beach, in the Hotel Nash, is no more. Perhaps not surprising, as The Nash was a curiously low-profile address for so high-profile a chef. It was out of sight from the street and, as far as locals were concerned, pretty much…

What you might not know is that the commercial below was filmed in South Florida and aside from being hilarious, the ad features our very own badminton enthusiast,…
It’s all well and good to be proud of your heritage, but I’m sure wearing your country’s flag as a tank top is a crime outside of the Calle Ocho Festival. If you look closely his socks say “USA”, because apparently shaming the Puerto Rican flag isn’t enough. Maybe he…
Some dude from the Union-Tribute wrote an 800 word piece on how he too does not know what Bill Parcells will do with the Dolphins’ first overall pick. But he does make some neat observations, like how Parcells has done nothing but study tapes on college players and talk to…
Crossing the line isn’t always a difficult task when you’re a ‘shock jock’ personality hosting a morning radio show, who garnered a following by being crude, rude and all things beyond. But two of the most successful at the craft agree there’s tasteful and then there’s tasteless, while defending what…
Back in the day, there was Mary Kay, Avon, and Amway for side-job entrepreneurs looking to expand their social circles and bank accounts. Now there’s a new direct-selling company making inroads amongst Miami’s makeup mavens. L’Bel Paris is a luxurious, high quality line of French makeup, skin care, and fragrance…
At the Carbonell Awards last night, my boyfriend and I sat right next to a cameraman in the Amaturo Theater at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts. We wore tuxes, and we looked cute. Everybody else looked cute, too. The real winner at last night’s Carbonell Awards was actress…
Wire Image John Legend and D. Wade made appearances at the Art for Life Miami Beach gala Saturday, April 5. Legend was honored for his contributions while Wade posted on the host committee. Instead of usual A-list bottle behavior, a cluster of celebs came out to The Bath Club on…
Lucy Orozco Better Than: Being home alone drunk on a Saturday night, listening to Wu-Tang on your iPod. Cappadonna, a lesser known part of the Wu Tang Clan family, was supposed to perform Saturday at Studio A. Instead, club personnel posted a sign at the entrance asking anyone to call…
So WMC has come and gone, and things are getting back to normal (at least what we call normal) in Miami, but that doesn’t mean that there was nothing to do over the weekend. Although with the price of gasoline nearing four dollars a gallon, a lot of people chose…
The Japanese Masters Film Festival at the Cosford Cinema at UM wasn’t much of a festival as it was a movie screening. That doesn’t necessarily make it bad but it isn’t what you expect when you hear the word festival, there should at least be some sort of reception or…
Clearly, Miami is the off-season hotspot for many a baller from all walks of leagues. Such was the case for Dallas Cowboy Terrell Owens Wednesday night. The wide receiver was on a cozy, yet casual dinner date with a no-name model hottie at the chic Lincoln Road eatery with definite…
Pauly Shore joins in the fun at The Forge “Dulce de Leche” swimwear show in true ball-busting style. We all know how hard the party rocks over at The Forge on Wednesday night, but in light of bathing suit season, folks turned up the heat with a super-sexy male swimwear…

John Hood Let me set the scene for you. I’m at The Command Center at the Triple A , which is one of the best staffed arenas in the country, by the way, trying to sort out my media credentials. People from production, security, law enforcement, all rolling by me…
Helena D. Lewis and Ill-Literacy April 1, 2008 Cielo Garden and Supper Club Better Than: A night at home watching Def Poetry Jam. I admit I’ve always secretly wanted to be a spoken-word poet. Witty, charismatic and thought-provoking; what’s not to love? But the ability to express my deepest feelings…
I got a press release this morning announcing that Nestle will be changing the name of their Butterfinger candy bar to just, “The Finger.” I can picture it now, Bart Simpson pulling his chocolate bar away from Nelson after knocking him out, then looking at the television viewer while quipping,…
When it comes to Miami-Dade County, no other Banana Republic in the southern hemisphere compares to our wacky tropical metropolis. Here, we can always expect a public official to find a way to bamboozle us. Take Miami City Commissioner Marc Sarnoff. The Coconut Grove lawyer has already proven he has…
Bill Parcells confirmed with the New York Daily News last week that he is, in fact, willing to trade out of the first overall pick. We all would like him to do this for a number of reasons — mainly to get more picks so he can have more flexibility…
Ivon David Rojas Another rainy weekend didn’t stop the people from partying non stop as the Winter Music Conference drew to a close. The Sony Ericsson Open started last week and continues far in to this coming week. Traffic was hell at all hours of the night as you approached…
Lucy Orozco Traffic before the toll booths on the Rickenbaker Causeway was backed up for almost an hour due to the Sony Ericsson Open. It was interesting to find people with a dislike for certain aspects of tennis at the event. These people developed their own version of the game,…
