[Access Hollywood] Vanessa Carlton gives tour of Apt

[cassiemoy]

ALL RIGHT, while we angst away in other threads... vanessa has been on "hollywood green".

tour of her apartment, her being green again. lord victor is as cute as ever.

there's a snippet of that new song, too, on gotti's way. at least, an instrumental snippet - the vid shows her playing it and it's absolutely gorgeous. can't wait to hear that song in full.

and a little bit from her on the cape farewell trip.

Cool, thanks for the link!

Oh thank you for posting, that's awesome !

[craft]

See, we were uproaring (well, you all were) for nothing.

her showing off all her expensive stuff is hardly coming by to say hello.
but thanks for posting.

yeah i agree, i don't think this makes anybodies point valid or invalid.

but it is nice to have SOMETHING new..even if it has to be posted/found by fans...

[Ghisy]

Thanks for the link!
Is anyone able to capture the vid so we can download it?
My usual Firefox extension doesn't work on that website...

[nutnlp]

what a breathtaking home......wow....

[cassiemoy]

mmm i didn't mean to suggest anyone's point is valid/invalid, only to point our way to some vanessa presence. this was apparently on tv sometime, too. :]

edit: never made the claim that this should suffice as artist-fan interaction, either.

oh. and as i was reminded, i was only speculating that whatever she's playing is the same song as the one she played on irv gotti. it sounded similar to me? i suppose it could be an entirely new song or just a little passage she composed.

and uh, for some reason, my add-on doesn't want to capture this vid either. it only wants to capture the ad preceding it :[

We paid for it. Lol.

I don't think all that stuff is all that expensive.  What do candles go for, $2.00?

I don't know why environmentalists talk about going green and stuff.  I don't consider myself an environmentalist  but I have about the same type of behavior but mostly for efficiency and quality of life reasons.  I've always tried to live within a few blocks of where I work so I didn't have to drive #%!* hours to work.  And I've been wanting an EV for years.  I was eyeing the Th!nk City website back when Ford owned the company because I wanted one really bad.

Green has always been reserved for HORNY for me.  When people talk about going green, I think, "Horny for social acceptance."

At least it is for some good; for those who are compelled to drive their SUV on a 100 mile round trip commute. (I've known people like that.)

antique furniture and handcrafted tables from indonesia are not cheap. the candles could be, but honestly tend to run around $9-10 apiece. and even if they were cheap, those candelabra probably weren't.
i'm sure not everything in her home is ridiculously expensive, but her apartment is a hell of a lot nicer than mine.

theres no doubt that v has invested a lot of money into her apartment, she has a fucking elevator leading up to her level(which is common in nyc for a loft i know) but come on......but i don't think money-wise it's any of our business...

but I DO think it's a lot easier for people to go green, if you have the money too...it's easier to go the cheaper, easier, quicker more at your fingertips-route when your on a budget, which almost everyone who isn't rolling in the dough is..and people who work 9-5 jobs don't have the time and money to worry about where there kitchen table is coming from, and where it was crafted and with what materials....im glad she is "green" in a sense but it's almost impossible for someone to even think about going green when they lead a normal life with a normal average income.

I agree.

I don't even have an apartment.

but I DO think it's a lot easier for people to go green, if you have the money too...it's easier to go the cheaper, easier, quicker more at your fingertips-route when your on a budget, which almost everyone who isn't rolling in the dough is..and people who work 9-5 jobs don't have the time and money to worry about where there kitchen table is coming from, and where it was crafted and with what materials....im glad she is "green" in a sense but it's almost impossible for someone to even think about going green when they lead a normal life with a normal average income.

I disagree.  There are many things people can do.  Just consider them on coffee breaks(or like me smoke breaks.)  I've even done some non-eco friendly things on purpose.  Like adding tri-sodium phosphate(you can buy it at a hardware store or gardening center) to my laundry detergent to make my clothes cleaner.  The problem is if everyone does that it becomes a big problem.  I don't do it now but have in the past.  If you look at the side of laundry detergent it says on almost every package(if not every one) in the united states, "No Phosphates"

I think the main push right now is to reduce carbon emissions without overloading the capacity of the electrical grid.  Which is why they say use less.  Ect., ect.

Some people are tree huggers.  Others just leave the trees alone because hugging a damn tree is stupid.  :wink:

i do. we paid for it.
