#Hoodrat Issue #1

JEFF HERE. I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR DOWNLOADING THIS FIRST ISSUE OF #HOODRAT! IT’S BEING RUSHED TO COMPLETION IN TIME FOR THE FIRST #HOODRAT PARTY (THURSDAY DEC 13 AT BEDLAM),SO ITS A "BABY ISSUE", BUT I HOPE YOU ENJOY IT NONETHELESS. THE IDEA IS SIMPLE. #HOODRAT IS THE IDEA THAT YOU CAN BE EXCELLENT AND A MESS AT THE SAME TIME. THAT “GROWING UP” DOESN’T MEAN “GROWING OLD”, AND THAT WE ARE THE ARCHITECTS OF OUR OWN LIVES. AS THE LATE MARIAH CAREY ONCE SAID: “MAKE IT HAPPEN”

Bryssa says she's calling me from poolside at the Chateau Marmont. In the background I can clearly hear someone ordering a Dorito Taco™, so I have my doubts. Nevertheless, she's regaling me with tales of the previous night... I can't make out everything she's saying but select words jump out at me: "Blah blah blah Champagne... blah blah VIP! *cackle* Blah blah panties. *muffled wheeze* Çiroc. Blahblahblah Sunset!!" (either the the Boulevard, or the time she usually wakes up). This continues for several minutes, then the line suddenly goes dead. Bryssa, short for Brysssssssssssssa, is a 20(? 30? 40?)­something Pop Star celebutart, Actress, Model, Dancer, and Real Housewife wannabe. She's part starlet, all harlot. Bryssa hosts and performs a medley of her hits at the Grand Opening of #Hoodrat on Thursday, December 13, 2012. ­JC

OPPOSITE PAGE: Bryssa poses with a fan outside Grauman's Chinese Theatre, which is next to her favorite Starbucks. INSET: Bryssa goes green.




Stephanie Stone is, to me, everything that I love about New York. She's fabulous and glamorous, yes, but she's also wonderful, entertaining, and occasionally just as trashy as the rest of us. Her ability to toe the line between high and low is one of the reasons that Steph stands out from the crowd. On a more personal note, she's also one of the most generous people I have ever known, and has been there for me countless times when I needed it. I am honored to have Ms. Stone host the Grand Opening of #Hoodrat at Bedlam on Dec 13.




Kyle Brincefield started STUDmuffin NYC in 2010. Earlier this year, downtown legend Patricia Field began carrying the line in her shop and exposure quickly grew. The line of studded streetwear and custom creations brings an east village punk sensibility to everything from hoodies to jockstraps (pictured), and has been seen everywhere... from Snooki to the NYT Style Section. Kyle and STUDmuffin NYC host #HOODRAT on December 27. www.studmuffin足nyc.com




If a picture is worth a thousand words, I don't need to say anything about how amazing these two are, right? I WANT TO LIVE INSIDE THEIR HAIR. Joseph Trotto Junior and Valissa Yoe take over the #Hoodrat decks on Thursday December 27.


Our first ever #Hoodrat Boy & Girl are two of my favorite East Village kids. Michael & Danielle are flatmates, best friends, and pretty much amazing. It’s Danielle’s Birthday this week (HAPPY BIRTHDAY!) so if you see her, buy her a drink!
