Remember that video of Stephanie Germanotta — oops, I mean, Lady Gaga — from 2006 that I posted earlier? Well, somebody has dug up an even older video from a 2005 NYU talent showcase and this video makes Lady Gaga look sooooooo incredibly normal compared to her current look.
I guess Stephanie Germanotta couldn’t break out in NYC with all of the other female vocalists with a piano in the area so she had to resort to turning herself into Lady Gaga. Pfft.
After seeing this image above, I am so glad that my current job does not require me to work in the darkroom to tweak exposures on a photograph.
Don’t get me wrong, I really do enjoy working in the darkroom, but I think I’d sooner quit than start doing something like this IN THE DARKROOM for the amount of photos I process daily. Yeesh. I guess it just goes to show how awesome Richard Avedon is/was. [via]
You have to check out this insane jump-roping routine from the US Naval Academy’s King Firecrackers. Most people I know can barely jump-rope for a steady 5 minutes, and these girls do it longer than that while skipping, flipping, crossing, and running across a basketball court.
