The hot-ish!


Once again we’ve turned out one SMOKIN HOT BUMPER issue of HOTSTUFF! This month we went crazy to bring you some of the best festivals London had to offer with The Foodies Festival, Greenwich Summer Sessions’ Mark Ronson + Business International supported by the Noisettes (the best Summer concert of the lot!!). Plus we caught up with Sean Paul & Shaggy at the One Love Peace Festival! We also took it to the streets with the XXL Streetdance Championships. The very same championships that aired on C4 last week.


Then there’s US Neo-soul singer CARMEN RODGERS!! Carmen was in town for one night only at London’s Jazz Cafe.


Last but not least we take luxury to a new level with our straight ballin’ feature on Concours D’ Elegance. If you’re not hip to the Concours game you need to be, if you wanna be hanging with Diddy in a yacht skimming the St. Tropez coastline. We took in the hot rides!!! Vintage and Formula One racing cars, jewels, champagne and all the sheer luxe the garden party at Hurlingham Club is famous for.


Phew! Told ya it was a bumper issue. Now we the team are gonna pass out from the utter exhaustion of it all.


Enjoy & as always.... Keep it HOT!! The hm team xxx
