So guess who was lucky enough to score an invite to bop out with the Pussy Cat Dolls in Auckland, with the crew from Xbox (huuuuge ups to Angely, Greer and Tolan!)? The Dolls were good, but they didn't amaze me. I reckon we could have watched one of their music vids for a better show - and more clothing!

Don't get me wrong, I enjoyed the energy of the PCD, but I was BLOWN AWAY by Stefani Germanotta, aka Lady Gaga! In fact, I went SO gaga over Gaga that we've named the FREE pull-out get-glam section in this month's mag after one of her hit singles, "Just Dance". You'll find Part One of Just Dance! from page 67. Look out for Part Two in next month's ish - it'll have even more tips and treats for your school ball, junior dance, semi-formal, or your next big par-tay!

Speaking of parties, I've found the perfect party starter, Xbox Lips. It's a must-try if you love a bit of karaoke!

Our cover girl, Lily, is another singer with attitude. Sometimes, she's in the press for the wrong reasons, but we admire her for sticking up for herself and focusing on the real joy of life, not materialistic things.

Enjoy the mag and, as Lily would say... go ahead and SMILE!
