Welcome to The Weeknd. You've probably heard some buzz over the past year on just who this mysterious Canadian duo was, only to realize The Weeknd was in fact singular- 21-year-old Toronto native Abel Tesfaye, to be exact.

Tesfaye's career is blowing up, yet the man behind The Weeknd stays intriguingly elusive, thus making it all the more promising. His genre-bending sound, a scattered mix of indie, dub-step, R&B, and trip-hop can only be described as druggie soul, and I say this in the most complimentary of ways.

Sit back, relax, and get ready for The Weeknd. More»

From the moment he landed in NYC in 2008, tech billionaire Sean Parker has indulged the big city scene, quite literally some would say, like a kid in a candy store. The rumored drug-fueled parties and late night stints at the city’s famed hot spots are evidence that Silicon Valley’s bad boy is in no hurry to depart from his hard-partying image.

He’s no stranger to six-figure bar tabs, and he rang in his 32nd birthday with a super hot (we meanfire extinguisher hot) champagne celebration at the off-Broadway performance “Sleep No More.” Luckily enough for him, there’s an equally party-loving hottie who finds this playboy irresistible. More»
