Kyou wa February 14th in Japan… meaning today is Sebastiano Serafini’s birthday!

You probably don’t need to reminded that it’s also Bloody Black Heart Venereal Disease Day. (There’s no such thing as Valentine’s Day in Spookyville. Too goopy, don’t you agree?)

To celebrate Seba’s b-day and V-day, I’m going to be Tweeting fun photos and messages. Please follow my Twitter (@lacarmina) and Seba’s (@sebaofficial) to see the mischief I have planned!

I’m still sorting through mega-folders of photos from our Los Angeles Invasion. We were quite the sight in our gyaru leopard print outfits, gifted from Like Atmosphere. The designer necklaces are presents from RJ 1959. (Sebastiano models for both Japanese brands.)

We took part in a TV shoot at Blue Monday, the 80s party at Boardner’s. The same venue where our Bar Sinister Goth club hosting fiasco went down! (If you missed it, here are the photos and story.)

We also did some TV shoots at M Cafe de Chaya. I interviewed the owner and head chef, Tachibe-san, and he filled us up with flavorful macrobiotic food.

I always take new LA visitors to Amoeba Records. Best place to find used CDs and vinyls, such as KISS records.

My favorite part of the music store, by far, is the Death Metal aisle. Oh, the band names.

Our Hollywood Invasion was an explosive mix of work and play… many LA photos and stories still to come!

NOH8 CAMPAIGN IS COMING TO TOKYO, JAPAN! WE’RE HELPING TO BRING NOH8 CHARITY WORLDWIDE, FOR THE FIRST TIME.

NOH8 CAMPAIGN IS COMING TO TOKYO, JAPAN! LA CARMINA & SEBA BRINGING NOH8 CHARITY WORLDWIDE, FOR THE FIRST TIME. noh8worldwide, gay marriage protest prop 8, la carmina noh8, sebastiano serafini, celebrity noh8 photos, adam bouska, protest proposition 8, lgbt, familiar faces, famous people in gay rights campaign, charity, noh8 photoshoot, japanese noh8

At last, we can unveil huge news! This year, Sebastiano and I are committed to making a difference. In Los Angeles, we did a photoshoot for NOH8 — a non-profit campaign against inequality that uses striking photos and interactive media to spread the message.

We feel so strongly about the message, and clicked with the founders as soon as we met. And now, we’re helping to take the NOH8 Campaign worldwide, for the very first time… to Tokyo, Japan!

Founders Jeff Parshley and Adam Bouska have taken tens of thousands of photos (people with duct tape over their mouths and NOH8 on their cheeks) to symbolize how voices are silenced by unequal laws. NOH8 began as a protest of the Prop 8 ban on gay marriage in California, and blew up into a viral phenomenon.

The message of No Hate is that all individuals should be treated with love and respect, no matter their…
– Gender
– Sexual orientation
– Race and nationality
– Economic and social status
– Political stance

NOH8 has held photoshoots all over the US, with hundreds of supporters lining up. However, the campaign has never ventured out of the country… until now. Seba and I (and our amazing intern-pirates) have been working like mad to help arrange NOH8’s Tokyo trip. We’ll all be in Japan soon, and hope you can help us support the cause!
