As someone who is mildly addicted to the reality drama that is “The Hills,” I was so happy when I caught up with the season finale this morning before work. Lauren Conrad, who is actually becoming a TV persona I actually really like, got a second chance at a big career move and she […]

The romance of old movies
October 15th, 2007 · 2 Comments
I’ve been meaning to write about my thoughts earlier last week when I watched the 1959 classic movie Pillow Talk with Rock Hudson and Doris Day. I’ve always been a sucker for old movies and I can’t say that this one was any different. I loved it!
It’s just so interesting to see movies […]

A Hairspray star’s bout with anorexia, cutting
October 5th, 2007 · 4 Comments
One can imagine my surprise today when I sat down to eat lunch and turned on Access Hollywood, which airs around noontime here in Pittsburgh. One of their stories was about Hairspray starlet Brittany Snow and how, when she was young, she had a bout with anorexia and cutting. It surprised me and […]

The Britney Spears Debacle
October 4th, 2007 · 2 Comments
I hate to say it, but I feel bad for Britney Spears. The girl spends her teen years on top of the world, selling out concerts worldwide and making millions with her best-selling albums. Now, it seems like the girl-next-door we all once loved has gone bad, and very bad at that.
Spears’ has […]

silverstone’s meat free look
September 20th, 2007 · 2 Comments
Far from her Clueless days (or is she?), Alicia Silverstone latest endeavor is a nude (and somehow, scandalous) ad for PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals). In this “leave little to the imagination” commercial, she attempts to seduce the viewer by enrapturing him/her with her eyes and signature hair toss. She’s mumbling something […]

dog fighting and domestic abuse, oh my!
September 18th, 2007 · No Comments
Why is it that when a professional athlete assaults his wife or his girlfriend, he gets a slap on the wrist (most of the time) but when onetortures dogs (I realize animals hold different meanings to different people) he is under more public scrutiny and could potentially receive prison time?
According to an article from Sandra […]

The VMA Wrap-up
September 10th, 2007 · No Comments
Well, tonight’s MTV Video Music Awards definitely opened up my eyes to the fact that I’m getting older! I thought tonight’s production was mediocre, but did have its highlights. The excessive flashing lights, constant changing from one party to another upstairs at the Palms casino, and performance after performance were awfully distracting from […]

Hudgens photo pure lapse in judgment
September 8th, 2007 · 4 Comments
When news surfaced earlier this week about Vanessa Anne Hudgens (star of High School Musical and High School Musical 2) having a nude photo surface on the Internet, I was appalled. She was under 18 at the time, which to me is a red flag because of the fact that she was underage.
A few […]

Princess Diana
August 31st, 2007 · 2 Comments
On this day exactly 10 years ago, the life of this beautiful 35-year-old princess abruptly ended with a tragic car crash in Paris. I remember sitting at the dining room table with my bowl of Chex as my mom turned on the morning news. There it was. At only 8 years old I knew little […]
