ARVO me Roy, is that the Chattanooga Shu Shu?
FROM THE VAULT: August 29, 2013
Besides you know the ability to do math and stuff, Mikey D. has strict requirements for the Finance guys. They must have 6-pack abs. They must have thick, , spiky, well-coiffed hair (or a stylish cap like Rahiem to disguise a lack of thick, spiky, well-coifed hair). They must wear day-glo sneakers. And they must, at all costs, avoid the spotlight and paparazzi's red-hot glare.
While most of us lounge on a beach during vacation, Brian Shu became a one-man Sportscenter and TMZ highlight reel on his week off. As most of you know, Brian was the ball boy buzz of the Internet when hugged by Italian tennis player Francesca Schiavone at the US Open.
But that was just the beginning of his whirlwind week…
His late 90s boy band, Utilization Nation, reunited at the MTV VMA Awards…
He tried out for both the New York Jets…
And New York Mets…
The Kardashians were up in arms when photos showed baby North looks more like a Shu and less like a Kanye…
And of course, who could forget Brian's infamous twerking dance with Miley Cyrus…
Here we are at the end of summer, fellow FutureBranders. And before everyone heads out for the long weekend tomorrow, and returns begrudgingly next Tuesday for the big year-end push, let's gather tonight for a few ARVO libations and toast to Brian's newfound celebrity. We're even going to a new, and far classier joint than our normal beer-soaked dives—Bread & Tulips in the basement of the Hotel Giraffe, 26th and Park Avenue. While Brian unfortunately is dining with Beyonce and Jay-Z, Holmfridur has confirmed in ink her attendance. And since she's dressed like the Queen of Icelandia today, we should score VIP seating.
