Win stuff now!
If I wasn’t being whisked to Paris on a bloggers’ jolly, I’d pretty much definitely be hitting the V&A Village Fête this weekend. The action kicks off this evening (er like, now) and continues tomorrow arvo. My lovely jewellery-crafting buddy Leona from Lady Luck Rules OK and her team of creative cohorts are ramping things up on their stand with a giant game of Rock’n’Roll Tiddleywinks. What loons, I don’t even want to imagine the carnage.
There will also be the chance to win one of LLROK’s Rock’n’Roll Kitten necklaces (named after Leona’s punk kittens Dee Dee and Joey) which have been designed and handmade especially for the Fête.
BUT if you can’t make the Fête, you can still win a necklace – just enter this exclusive (er, I think) wee Disneyrollergirl competition by answering the following question:
FURTHER UPDATE>>> Here’s the winner

Love it! I would want a black panther or a white tiger and I would call it Hendrix if it were male and Carine (after Roitfeld) if it were female. I recognise I've cheated a little bit there by effectively doubling up my answer, but it's best to be prepared!!

Ah, good answer(s) Claire. I'm obv not entering the comp but what the hell… I'm not an animal fan but I like parrots so it would have to be a parrot named after Jimmy Saville. I would train him to say 'Now then, now then, now then' like this:
(Clearly, there is no way I would win this competition, rock n roll I am not)

I would get me a little ocelot and name her siouxsie. She'd also sport the most hardcore crystal studded collar…
thanks for posting this – looking forward to going to it tomorrow hopefully!

I love how you say "whisked to Paris" as if it's no big deal, ahah.
The necklace is cute! If I had a pet, I'd have a dog (because I'm just that original)..
A maltese cross bred with a shih-tzu actually
(http://www.murrayriverpuppies.com.au/images/Maltshihtzusmall.jpg look at that dog. You can't tell me that isn't the cutest the ever!)
I'd name him Galileo, because I think because the father of modern science automatically makes you a superstar.

That it so cute!
My answer:
A millipede called Imelda, after the wife of former Philippines dictator Ferdinand Marcos, because she was famous for owning 2,500 pairs of shoes.

I would really love a cute little turtle to call Obama! I know he's not a superSTAR but he's super famous and a great politician. And could you imagine a little turtle called Obama? This is no offense to Obama.. I am a huge supporter of him and my mom voted for him :) Love the necklace,

I'd like a capibara, I would call him Sufjan. I think the stupid looks of the capibara contrasting with the name would make me laugh each time I look at him.
It was lovely meeting you, hope you got home safe x

I'm a real cat person but I haven't been able to have a pet for a while but if I could get one tomorrow, I would freakin' ADORE a lil' kitten and I would name her 'Boots' after Little Boots. Just 'cause I think she rocks. I know she's more flavour of the month than superstar but I totally <3 her. And 'Boots' is a very generic name so it works for both male and female cats.
<3 LLROK too! :)

I'd have a unicorn. because, as my 3 year-old godson says, their horns are like wands. they can do magic with them. And speaking of magic, there obviously is no other option than calling that pet Mr Daniel Radcliffe.

27 July, 2009 @ 8:37 pm
It would be quite cool to have a cow called Angus… after Angus Young of AC/DC of course :)
Maybe a ginger cat and some hedgehogs… Ginger and the Sonic Circus anyone? (Sonic – hedgehogs, geddit? maybe I'm trying to be too clever)
Or how awesome would it be to name a male cat Abraham De Lacy Guiseppe Casey Thomas O'Malley, like in the Aristocats? I think that would be the best thing to name a cat, but mine's called Foxwell after the street the rescue centre found him on.

27 July, 2009 @ 10:30 pm
If I had a pet, it would be a purple dinosaur called Billie after Holiday but he will be a boy. He will of course be magical and have super powers such as cake vision and the ability to guess whatever number you are thinking of but he can't tell you because being a magic purple dinosaur, he can't talk. We will shop at Tesco and he will wait in the car park eating anyone who gives him a ticket. He will watch topical news shows, eat lemon biscuits, and have a bouncy tum to jump on as long as you take of your shoes and socks first. Failing that, I'll have a pony called David Bowie.

As an English teacher, I consider Mr. Shakespeare to be a bit of a celeb, so I hope you will too. I would name my kitty "Willy Shakes" after the bard himself. It would be quite fitting since he would wear a ruffly collar just like old Bill and he would always be shakin' that tail of his! ;)

Good golly, miss molly, this necklace is amazing. i love it. im upset i missed the fete!
I would have a little (preferably baby blue or pink furred) kitten in a jumper, that would stay a tiny cute kitten forever. I would knit it new jumpers to wear so we could match., and I would turn one of your personalised heart name necklaces into a collar to match my double-heart name necklace (its my pride and joy!). And it would come everywhere with me. She'd be my bestest friend. And her name would be Bettie after Bettie Page.

Felicity
29 July, 2009 @ 12:40 pm
Now I'm torn between the scaly option, or the fluffy one, but if we're talking superstars, there's nowt more rock and roll than a lizard. So it would have to be a bearded dragon (or maybe a blue tongued skink?) called Fabrizio (Moretti).
Woop Woop! x x x

I would have a little dormouse called Bowie. Instead of sawdust he would have stardust… failing that, barry m eye glitter.
He will also love to listen to German techno and is in desperate need of a lycra mouse-suit.

Hello! Wowsers! that is an uber super necklace! I would have a siamese cat (though that is not as exotic as some of the other pets, I am hideously allergic to everything so I can only fantasise about owning a pet, or even stepping within a three mile radius of one) and I would name him Chairman Miaow and he would ironically protect us from the *ahem* communist threat ;) x

So hard to choose! There are many pets I would want (and many superstars I would name them after!) One I would like is a baby mediterranean monk seal named Bette Davis. Unique, rare, and special, she would be timid (unlike her namesake), modest and playful, as yet to realise and unleash her full superstar potential.

29 July, 2009 @ 2:17 pm
Well I've always wanted a pet pig since watching Uptown Girls in which the character Britney Murphy played Molly had a pet pig called Mu. Mu meaning Chinese for pig i even named my pet Chihuahua Mu :L
My original name for my pet pig if i ever got one would be Little Miss Princess of Narnia she would be female of course. :)
But i suppose if i had to name her or maybe him now after a celebrity, i think I'd call him or her Banksy; simply because Banksy himself is an amazing artist, but he's anonymous which i think amplifies his art and the one of the queen being a lesbian is just inspiring :)

I would have a pet ant named Adam, after eighties new-wave legend Adam Ant.
I would use a tiny toothpick to carefully paint two white stripes on his back (attempting to paint the feelers would perhaps be one step too far),and his home would be fashioned out of a disgarded pirate hat.

I'd have an owl named Plath, after Sylvia Plath. Her literary genius makes her a superstar to me and I think the owl is the perfect embodiment of her wisdom and insight (the way they always seem to be watching and listening and can turn their heads 135 degrees) and her fierce ambition and brilliance (their ruthless hunting abilities).

My favourite star is Kate Bush for her beautiful voice, incredibly original music and amazing style and wild dance moves!
So i would have a gentle snow leopard cub, which is every bit as magical and mesmerising as kates performances.
Though it would be tame and calm, it would have a wild side and never fails to surprise.
i would take my cub out to frolic and roll with me while I dance barefoot on the moors and teach her to wail 'heathclifffe… its mee..' !

If we are really talking fantasy pets, I think I want something no one else has. My very own type of pet born from my noggin named after Joey Ramome. He shall be a Hullabaloo! Yes it's made up but you did say any pet I wanted! Here is a poem about my pet….
The Hullabaloo.
I last saw “Joey” at half past 5,
In the morning when I was barely alive
When he woke me with a terrible din
And got himself caught in the garden swing.
I asked “What do you think you’re doing
At this time in the morning? Hullabalooing?”
He swung ‘round three times and then he just said,
“I’ll sorry to wake you out of your bed”.
He said “I AM a Hullabaloo”
Which is why he was making such a to do.
It didn’t take long for my eyes to see
That instead of two eyes he really had three.
He had seven legs and was furry and fat,
He was wearing a necktie and a top hat.
After I freed him we drank cups of tea
And talked about polos and what’s on TV.
He said he likes ant farms and kung fu and jelly,
Listening to the Ramones and rubbing his belly,
He then ate the teapot and tucked me back in
And went back to the garden to make a big din.
I also drew a pic….

Excuse the bad poem and pic, I am made of thumbs. :o)

It has to be kittens everytime! I would adopt a cat that had just had lots of kittens, and the kittens too. The cat would be called Mrs Slocombe and the kittens would be called Omar, Snoop, Stringer and The Greek. I'm sure Mrs Slocombe would make sure they all beheave, and I would take every opportunity tell the other cats 'Omar's coming'…
