There's a video of Kerli's performance at The Necto, which occurred on the performance of AOL at 3rd. Unfortunately are not with a very good quality, below:
One more post on iamamoonchil.net Kerli's talking about her routine. She talked about her last week: Detroit, Bucharest (Romania), Motor City Pride, Moonchildren, Natalia Kills and more. Check out the post below:

Last week was insane again. I had a couple of days to make outfits for the Detroit pride when at home in LA and I thought I’d be all set but still ended up pulling an all nighter the last day of putting it all together. The usual:)
My life has gotten insane… but It’s so amazing to be able to go places and meet you guys.
I did the Detroit pride and the club Necto there the night before. You guys gave me so much love and as always, I had some nice conversations and hangs with the MoonChildren there. Quality time:)
The most epic picture ever:
For some reason, all the MoonChildren kept giving me these kandi bracelets. I am in love with them and wearing them reminds me of you guys. Next time you guys make them for me, also do a little ritual: Think good thoughts while you’re making them and illuminate them with your light. This way when I wear them, I can feel you even more:)
Here’s some pics from the pride. It was epic. Epic love.
Here I am hand making every piece u can see on stage. Wish I had some more help but at the same time, I’m probably too much of a control freak to have other people doing it. Unless I can afford the best of the best, of course.
With the very talented and beautiful Natalia Kills.
If ou don’t know who she is, check her music/vids out.
I feel like there’s so much shameless copying of lesser known artists bitchiness going on with female artists and although they put on an act of loving everyone, u rarely see any girls in pop tweet or talk about other girls in pop.
I aint no catty bitch, I know how hard chicks have it in this business so I make a promise to always let u know if any new killer girls are popping up on the scene.
::Crosses Heart::
Done with the Detroit Pride madness, I flew to Bucharest, Romania to work with Play and Win. My angels and their beats have been magical together. Been working with them for 2 days now…Really happy with it and really loving this city. It’s kinda like Italy meets Latin American slums meets Eastern Europe. Just a really cool vibe.
Some more Romania pics coming in the next weeks post. <3
Ugh..it's 3.30 am. Need to do some writing.
Anyway love u much and the iced coffee section is coming the moment I have a second to myself you.
<3
Tell me about your week..I've been enjoying reading these:)
I.L.U
Cant wait for this album, I hope for at least a debut of 60,000+...but preferably over 100,000 first week. But a more realistic is around 50-60,000 I believe depending on the next single. But she is definitely getting more popular!
The website from Bmi Inc., a U.S. company that cares about music rights, made a nice issue about Kerli and her Bubblegoth style.
Quote:
As defined by Kerli, “bubblegoth” is about “putting together things that don’t necessarily go together. It’s about making dark things beautiful and beautiful things dark.” The 24-year-old Estonian singer/songwriter is the hybrid’s poster child, believing in and living out those ideals everyday, extending her fascinations into both extremes and working to understand their dichotomy through her music. Kerli’s unique brand of electropop personifies the light and dark polarity of “bubblegoth”; it is ethereal and smoldering, gossamer yet tenebrous, electronic, intricate, expansive.
It seems clear that conviction and innovation are key factors in the creation of Kerli’s music as well as her image, inspiration that most assuredly stemmed from the necessity of imagination during her childhood. “I grew up in Estonia, and my family was very small town. I never had any art or creativity around me, so I had to create that for myself.” Now, that ideology has manifested itself into something more sophisticated, even visionary. “I always write in colors,” she explains. “I try to paint the picture with lyrics and with sounds and melody, so that each song has a lot of personality.”
Despite the distinctiveness of her background and philosophies, Kerli has a songwriting process not unlike the time-tested patterns of a pro. “I like going out into the world and taking note of what people are thinking and feeling, then I try to see everything that I’ve gathered through my own lens and attach it to my own concept.”
And that concept is shaping up to be both insightful and esoteric: “the human search for perfection, or somebody’s idea of perfection.” For her sophomore album, expected this fall, Kerli succumbed to her natural obsessions. “I find a lot in my art that I write about overcoming obstacles… even if I don’t mean to, it just sort of comes out that way.”
As for her motivation, well, it comes full circle: She is a conscientious poster child, representing a greater population of the “bubblegoth” community. “My fans are a big part of what I do… it’s like we’re all doing it together. I’m just a piece of the puzzle."
I can't wait for her album! but sadly she will be labled as a Lady Gaga wannabe which sucks because she came out before Lady Gaga. I don't like them being compared so much. They both have different styles.

I fear for this too but it will most likely happen. I have loved Kerli since I discovered her a year ago! I have all her unreleased and release songs on my ipod. I like her more than Gaga too no doubt
Two more shows for Kerli. The first, Cameo Chicago will obviously be in Chicago (Illinois). The show will be held on June 18th and also has Tommie Sunshine and Mixin Marc, this one produced some remixes for Army Of Love.
The second, the SoCal Youth Takeover Festival will be held on August 13rd in Los Angeles. Unlike most of the places where Kerli has made her performances, SoCal is free of censorship.
Kerli is back to the country that gave birth to her career and also the country that made it had to survive on rice and water, Sweden. Well bubblegoth:
Kerli, who now is on the top of U.S. Billboard Dance/Club chart with her single "Army of Love" is currently in Sweden to work. Today she was in the office to greet those who work here. Kerli, who is from Estonia, has signed with Island Records in the U.S., which is really great!
Army Of Love is the first single from her upcoming album, and second, continuation of "Love Is Dead". The song was written and produced by Kerli and Free School, who worked with Kelis and Chris Brown.
In the office, she played some new songs and talked about all her accessories, how she makes and wears them. Very cool, actually. And then she told me about her blog, and her fans - Moonchildren - which seems to be a very dedicated street team. Her army of Love.
Do you know any artists, or bloggers who also make their own clothes and jewelry? Tell me please!
And if the name "Kerli" sounds familiar, this was exactly the same Kerli who competed in Melodifestivalen 2003 with the song Let's Go But only we, the geeks, who remember such things.
