Isabelle Caro French model died from Anorexia nervosa she was 28
Isabelle Caro was a French model from Marseille, France, who became well-known after appearing in a controversial ad campaign "No Anorexia" which showed Caro with vertebrae and facial bones showing under her skin in a picture by photographer Oliviero Toscani died from Anorexia nervosa she was 28. She was the 3rd cousin of poker author Mike Caro.
(12 September 1982 – 17 November 2010) |
Biography
Caro suffered from severe anorexia nervosa from the age of 13. Anorexia was caused by what she called a "troubled childhood". When she appeared on CBS's The Insider, it was revealed that at the worst of her eating disorder, she weighed only 25 kilograms (55 lb; 3 st 13 lb) at a height of 1.65 metres (5 ft 5 in); her most recent weight was 33 kilograms (73 lb; 5 st 3 lb).She appeared on Channel 4's Supersize vs Superskinny which aired on 11 March 2008, in which she spoke to journalist Anna Richardson about her anorexia.
Caro was hospitalized for the first time when she was 20. At her worst, in 2006, she slipped into a coma, weighing just 25 kilograms (55 lb; 3 st 13 lb). The doctor said she would not survive the coma but she did.
Caro was also interviewed in the second episode of the TV documentary series, The Price of Beauty, in which Jessica Simpson and her two best friends, Ken Pavés and CaCee Cobb, traveled the world to explore the meaning of true beauty. Simpson investigated the problem of how some female fashion models have become obsessed with being skinny. Caro talked about how she became anorexic and warned other girls about the affliction. Simpson was moved to say "What you are doing right now makes you more beautiful and I hope women all over the world hear about the story and it is important to know that how skinny you are does not make you beautiful." It aired on 22 March 22 2010 in the USA and on 21 August in Japan.
Death
Caro died on 17 November 2010 in France, after spending about two weeks in hospital with acute respiratory disease. The cause of her death is unknown. Ms Caro's acting instructor, Daniele Dubreuil-Prevot, told the Associated Press news agency that Ms Caro had died "after returning to France" from a job in Tokyo. Her family only reported Caro's death to the media a month afterward, on 29 December 2010.Tuesday, October 29, 2013

Who is the Jabbawockeez?
Who is the Jabbawockeez? The entertainment & dance world knows the Jabbawockeez as a seven-member, male, hip-hop dance crew best known for being the winners of the first season of America's Best Dance Crew.
They were initially formed by members Kevin "KB" Brewer, Phil "Swagger
Boy" Tayag, & Joe "Punkee" Larot under the name "3 Muskee". By 2004,
their members included Ben "B-Tek" Chung, Chris "Cristyle" Gatdula,
Rynan "Kid Rainen" Paguio, and Jeff "Phi" Nguyen. The Jabbawockeez do
not have a leader of the group; choreography for their performances as
well as music and design choices are made as a collective unit.[4] They always perform wearing white masks (rare they wear other colour mask) and white gloves.[4]
Contents
Early Career
Phil "Swagger Boy" Tayag, Kevin "KB" Brewer, and Joe "Punkee" Larot
began performing as a trio called "Three Musky" in Sacramento,
California while wearing white masks and gloves. The mask and glove
motif was adopted as a tribute to the 1960s San Francisco strutting crew
Medea Sirkas. Gary "Gee One" Kendall and Randy "DJ Wish One" Bernal
were both members of the MindTricks dance crew who were active in the
San Francisco Bay Area. Both the MindTricks dance crew and the Three
Muskee were friends and associates with each other. Tayag, Brewer, and
Larot all later moved to the San Diego area and what began as an effort
to start a Southern California chapter of the MindTricks crew later
evolved into JabbaWockeeZ.
Established in 2003[4]
in San Diego, California, Jabbawockeez is the brainchild of the "Three
Musky" who wanted to showcase freestyle dance. The name Jabbawockeez,
coined by Joe Larot, was inspired by the fantastical monster from the Lewis Carroll nonsense poem Jabberwocky.[4]
The white masks and gloves from Phil, Kevin, and Joe's performances as
Three Musky were adopted as the visual signature of the group. In San
Diego, through Gary's connections, the Jabbawockeez added b-boys
Rynan "Kid Rainen" Paguio and Chris "Cristyle" Gatdula to the group.
The original seven member iteration of the Jabbawockeez began performing
as a group in 2004. This lineup consisted of Gary, Randy, Phil, Kevin,
Joe, Rynan, and Chris.
Jabbawockeez rounded out their numbers with additional members, bringing their total to eleven. Phoenix native Jeff "Phi" Nguyen had met Rynan Paguio at various Los Angeles area auditions and performances and earned a spot in the Jabbawockeez in 2004 by battling Kevin Brewer.[4] The Jabbawockeez also brought Kaba Modern
alumnus Ben "B-Tek" Chung and b-boys Eddie "Eddiestyles" Gutierrez and
Saso "Saso Fresh" Jimenez into the fold. Stylistically, the Jabbawockeez
style of dance features an eclectic mix of various urban styles,
primarily popping & b-boying, along with a careful synchronicity to choreography which one member dubs "Beat-Kune-Do" (a play on the word "Jeet Kune Do", a martial arts style created by Bruce Lee). In 2007, the JabbaWockeeZ appeared on the second season of America's Got Talent.
Performing with nine members, the group was eliminated in the Las Vegas
callbacks episode. In 2008, they auditioned and were accepted onto the
first season of America's Best Dance Crew.
America's Best Dance Crew
The Jabbawockeez auditioned a seven-member contingent for the first season of America's Best Dance Crew,
because of crew member limits imposed by the show. Originally, the ABDC
group was supposed to consist of Gary Kendell, Phil Tayag, Kevin
Brewer, Joe Larot, Rynan Paguio, Chris Gatdula, and Phi Nguyen; however,
Gary died that year, and Joe suffered a knee injury during the audition
rounds. The group chose Ben Chung to replace Joe on the show and left
Gary's spot vacant, proceeding with six members. They eventually went on
to become the winners of the show. The win earned the crew $100,000
(USD).[5]
