Music Monday: My All-Time Favorite Songs
This week’s Music Monday falls on a special day: my birthday. That’s right, on November 2nd V for Vetrano was born; and from a young age, music played a big part of my life. So, in honor of the big day, I’ve compiled some of my all time favorite songs –since birth– in one epic playlist. Songs that have touched my soul from the moment I’ve heard them. Songs that take me back to a special memory. Songs that I never skip when they come up on my Pandora station. All these songs, in some way or another, represent the first thirty years of my life. From my very first purchased…

Turn Back Time
Hey guys, gals and undecideds, V for Vetrano here on the first day of November! If you’re like most of the population, you probably “whooped it up” last night for Halloween and might be praying for the pounding in your head to stop. And if the night’s scares didn’t end until the wee-hours of the morning, you may not even be reading this until tomorrow (or next week, for that matter). Me, on the other hand? I stayed in. With a busy Sunday Funday ahead to celebrate my birthday, I opted to skip the costumes and candy this year. Part of me loved the alone time to catch up on…

It’s Thursday, so that means it’s time for another edition of Listen! It’s Vetrano‘s weekly web series. This week’s video is exciting because you get to meet my fabulous and talented friend Alexis Ryan.

I Licked a Donut On Vacation
Just because I was on summer vacation the last few weeks didn’t mean the world of pop culture and entertainment news slowed down. The Listen! It’s Vetrano‘s web series returns to YouTube today with an inside look at my vacation and everything I missed in pop culture, including Ariana Grande‘s donut licking, anti-American mishap, Caitlyn Jenner‘s Vanity Fair debut, marriage equality (!!!) and what I’ve been reading on break (spoiler alert: Joey Graceffa‘s new book In Real Life: My Journey to a Pixelated World). You can watch the video above to see my take on the events that has everyone talking, but I do want to note one thing before you watch. The episode was recorded and edited…

Back To Reality: How To Recover from Vacation
After a three week vacation, soaking up the Destin, Florida sun, eating fancy and delicious foods, drinking my weight in booze and enjoying summer festivities, I returned to work mode this week. Let me tell you, nothing smacks you in the face quite like getting “back to reality.” Well except perhaps those Housewives who literally smack each other in the face on their reality shows. Waking up before 10 a.m., sweating through an hour of cardio at the gym and answering emails all day can really be a buzz kill. It’s a sad truth, but most of us cannot stay on a perma-vacation –unless you’re somehow a part of the Kardashian empire– and…
