People Watching at the Chelsea Piers Skatepark

The weather has been really dank in NYC for the past week, but there was a small window of glorious sunshine this past Saturday. I took that as a chance to run over the Hudson to catch some rays near Chelsea Piers.

On my walk home I made a pit stop to watch the skateboarders do their thing at the Chelsea Piers Skatepark... and now you can, too. Check out the boarders -- good and bad -- practice their ollies and grinds (that's what the kids call it, right?) :

It's a little hypnotic, no? To be honest, I'm a little sad that nobody wiped out, but it was still fun to watch.

Now that the season is over, the contestants of America's Next Top Model are able to speak out about their time on the show. Check out this great interview with the confident and likable Kasia Pilewicz, who came in fifth place on Cycle 16.


In a sit down with the Associated Press, Kasia gives us insight into her experience with the competition, what Alexandria was really like, and why she was rooting for Molly to win the competition. Check it out:

Kasia may not have been my most favorite model of Cycle 16, but I definitely think she's super talented and fun! Do you think she'd wanna be my friend?

America's Next Top Model Is...

Hard to believe that Cycle 16 of America's Next Top Model is over already, but after some wild photo shoots, loads of drama and a trip to Morocco it was finally time to pick a winner. Both Molly and Brittani had strong performances in the final week, and through the season, but only one can be named America's Next Top Model.
