Terra Naomi Covers Faster Pussycat’s ‘House Of Pain’
Every day from December 13th to December 25, Terra Naomi and filmmaker James Gunn will post a new video interpretation of a classic hair metal song in a '12 Days of Hair Metal' series. "James and I dug deep into the 80's... we looked past the liberal application of man-makeup, excessive use of aerosol hairspray, and over the top 1980's production in search of some real songwriting gems, and we think we found them," Terra writes. "Just to be clear, we are not making fun of the genre of Hair Metal, out of which came some of the best pop songs ever."Watch Terra's Faster Pussycat cover 'House Of Pain' - and the original - below:

Terra Naomi Weighs In On Today’s Election
Terra Naomi checked in with fans on her blog at MySpace on Tuesday (November 4), commenting on today's elections and Proposition 8, which will change the California Constitution to eliminate the right of same-sex couples to marry in California. The Los Angeles based singer songwriter tells readers:It's election day. In under 24 hours we will know the results. It's looking good, at least from where I sit, but I can't relax until
know the final counts.
And, to be honest, I'm VERY concerned about prop 8. The fact that I've seen "yes on prop 8" banner ads on MySpace, non-stop, ALL DAY LONG, is really upsetting. This is 2008. There was a time in our country's history, not so long ago, when it was illegal for a white person to marry a black person.
Why is proposition 8 even an issue? It is a discussion which should exist only between groups of bigots... not something which is up for debate while we are about to elect our first African-American president. We have come so far, in some ways... and saying that we've "come so far" feels ridiculous to me since "coming so far" simply means overcoming our disgusting natural states of hatred, bigotry and ignorance.
That being said, better that we overcome it than NOT overcome it, since it was (and still is) there to begin with. Ok. Enough of that... at least for now...

Terra Naomi Selling All Kinds Of Stuff To Fund Album
Terra Naomi updated fans on her blog at MySpace on Thursday (October 16), talking about progress on her new album and a trip to a Beverly Hills dentist. The American singer songwriter tells readers:Now I'm off to sign more CDs and guitar picks. And sort out the details of recording my album. And because I'm so excited about all this stuff and can't keep myself from telling you before I'm supposed to, here's something really cool:
I'm selling all kinds of stuff in order to help fund this album, and one of the things which will be up for sale on the website when it launches in the next couple of weeks is A DAY IN THE STUDIO WHILE WE RECORD THE NEW ALBUM!!! and I'll give you lunch, too. (I think the studio will be up in Malibu, which will be super cool, but don't hold me to that, because details could change.)
Check out the full posting, and a detailed photo of her mouth, here.
Terra Naomi Keeps Busy Autographing Items
Terra Naomi updated fans on her blog at MySpace on Tuesday (October 14). The Los Angeles based singer songwriter tells readers:Yesterday was spent signing things for you people. I asked for some special free gift ideas, and you guys basically wanted everything I already had planned for you - signed guitar picks, shirts, buttons, etc. Some of you wanted predictably weird sh** like "go on a date with you!" and i'm sorry to inform you that I will not be sending "go on a date with you" along with your CDs. First of all, I have no concept of how to package and ship that, and secondly... Just NO.
As many of you know, most "autographed" band stuff is not actually autographed by the band. (and for those of you whose dreams I just shattered, I apologize.)
HOWEVER - now, when you order TERRA NAOMI AUTOGRAPHED SH**, it will actually be SIGNED BY ME.not a printed signature (like the guitar picks that came with my 'virtually' cd - those were printed in a factory. I never even touched 'em.)
Check out the full post and pictures of Terra signing stuff here.

Terra Naomi Guilt Blogging
Terra Naomi updated fans on her blog at MySpace on Tuesday (September 30). The American singer songwriter tells readers:My friend James is writing a blog so I felt like I needed to write a blog, too.
I feel guilty and lazy when I think about the fact that somewhere, someone is blogging, and it isn't me.
Thing is, there are people blogging all over the world, all the time.
People are twittering and zanneling and blogging and fu**ing and... I'm off topic.
And Then I start to feel bad because I know my blog won't be as good as James' blog.
See, he's blogging because he actually has something to blog about.
Also, he's really mean, so his blogs are more fun to read.
I'm guilt-blogging.
Just wanna keep up.
Nothing to say.
Not really.
Just don't want to be lazy.
