Jeffree Star 'Cupcakes Taste Like Violence' album

Jeffree Star, the self-made phenomenon with a flare for the dramatic and an on (and off)-line army of supporters as dedicated as they are diverse makes his musical debut today by way of the EP Cupcakes Taste Like Violence which is available today at all major physical and digital retailers. Jeffree has teamed with Warner Music Group's Independent Label Group (ILG) to form his own label, Popsicle Records. He's currently recording his full length record, Beauty Killer, set for release this summer and featuring a variety of guest appearances. The first single from Cupcakes is "Lollipop Luxury" and a remix is available on Jeffree's MySpace page (not available on the EP) featuring up-and-coming hip hop star Nicki Minaj. Minaj is the first signing to Lil' Wayne's label Young Money Entertainment.

Jeffree’s love for the extreme started from a young age attending the Hollywood club scene fully clad in nine-inch heels, mini-dresses, show-stopping makeup and his trademark stunning pink hair. He quickly was in high-demand as a personal makeup artist to stars such as Kelly Osbourne, Nicole Richie, and Paris Hilton. Soon, Jeffree's profile began to rise in LA as he graced the covers of Frontiers and LA Weekly in addition to being the face of jewelry designer Tarina Tarantino’s Tokyo Hardcore campaign alongside his close friend, AFI’s Davey Havok. Things started moving quickly as his MySpace page became and remains one of the site's most trafficked pages. Jeffree launched his own clothing line in Hot Topic, expanded his web presence as the face of sites like Buzznet and Stickam, and even became a beloved guest on America’s Next Top Model and regular on L.A. Ink. He has appeared in music videos for Good Charlotte, Peaches and Godhead as well. Jeffree's first foray into recorded music can be found on his self-released EP Plastic Surgery Slumber Party which is available on iTunes.

Dubbed “Queen of the Internet,” Jeffree is a cultural icon and perhaps the most flamboyant, yet appealing star to emerge in recent memory. Jeffree Star is not just a trend, he’s an obsession for all.

Jeffree Star biography
Jeffree Star the gorgeous, tattooed, 6 foot tall human epitome of glamour, and if you’re not careful he will steal your man. A self-made phenomenon who has an on (and off)line army of devoted fans. Star has managed to acquire a fan base that is as dedicated as it is diverse.

Jeffree’s love for the extreme started from a young age attending the Hollywood club scene fully clad in nine-inch heels, mini-dresses, show-stopping makeup and his trademark stunning pink hair. He quickly was in high-demand as a personal makeup artist to stars such as Kelly Osbourne, Nicole Richie, and Paris Hilton. He then took the modeling world by storm gracing the covers of Frontiers and LA Weekly in addition to being the face of jewelry designer Tarina Tarantino’s Tokyo Hardcore campaign alongside AFI’s Davey Havok.

Loyal fans insisted on more from Jeffree so he launched his own clothing line in Hot Topic, expanded his web presence as the face of sites like Buzznet and Stickam, and even became a beloved guest on America’s Next Top Model and regular on L.A. Ink.

Appearing in music video appearances for Good Charlotte, Peaches and Godhead, Jeffree can now add recording artist to his impressive resume. Star’s first release, the self released EP Plastic Surgery Slumber Party debuted at #1 on the iTunes dance chart and “hovered high above household names such as Justin Timberlake and Cascada.” (Craig Edmonds, South End Newspaper). His myspace page has a staggering 850,000 friends and his songs have been played over 44,000,000 times on his page with daily plays averaging over 60,000.

Jeffree Star has teamed with Warner Music Group’s Independent Label Group (ILG) to form his own label, Popsicle Records. The inaugural Popsicle Records release will be Jeffree’s Cupcakes Taste Like Violence EP which comes out on December 9th, 2008. That EP will be followed by Jeffree’s debut full length which he is currently recording and due out Spring/Summer 2009. Says Jeffree on the new label deal: “I’ve always wanted something like this and I’m so thankful that I’ve been given this opportunity. ILG believe in my vision and are making it happen! I get to put out my own music, as well as sign bands to my label and have all the control. Some old executive can’t pick my album cover for me and tell me what I should sound like!”

In the spring of 2008, Jeffree traveled the country stealing hearts and delivering sold-out shows during his first headlining US Tour, aptly titled the Jeffree Star Will Steal Your Man Tour. He recently finished the west coast run of the Vans Warped Tour where he was a top draw on the Hurley Stage and the third ranking band in daily merchandise sales, ranking only below mainstage acts Cobra Starship and Gym Class Heroes. He is currently recording his first full-length album, Beauty Killer. It is scheduled for release in 2009.

Dubbed “Queen of the Internet,” Jeffree is a cultural icon and perhaps the most flamboyant, yet appealing star to emerge in the new millennium. He is a global brand that has played to sold out crowds in Europe. A talented musician, a beautiful model, and an inspiration to anyone looking to stand out in a crowd, Jeffree Star is not just a trend, he’s an obsession for all.
