Mr. Robert Clivilles Sooo, finally the MVP video is out and the new site is up and running. Here below is the original posting, the one that opened COMA. Check out the video by clicking the "video" icon on their website. Robert, Vice and Stagga, keep rocking! :-) PS.: Most of the "takes" in the video are from the New York tapings, and hair guru Justin Cruz was the NYC hairdresser responsible for the looks. He busted his "derriere." You go Justin! He is at CUTLER/NYC , uptown. Hello to you all and a big warm hug from the city of New York.

Hence, the more grounded I am the better for "moi," and in the long run... for others too. You've seen postings, links and magazine articles with "Karlo quotes," some of those quotes were published and posted during my three- month gig as a "Beauty Editor," which ended when the character that "owned" the magazine disappeared.
