Another Emmy award show has come and gone and to be completely honest with you, I was pretty disappointed. I don’t remember if I watched it last year so I might not have anything to compare it to but it was really boring. The opening show was the best part in my book – they took Jimmy Fallon (Who hosted the show), gleeks – Lea Michele, Corey Monteith, Chris Colfer, Amber Riley and Jane Lynch, Tina Fey from 30 Rock, The Soup’s Joel McHale, Jorge Garcia (Hurley from Lost), Mother of 8 Kate Gosselin and last but not least Nina Dobrev from Vampire Diaries (Love her) – and made them sing and dance – How freaking fantastic was that?
And then the big snore began. But at least we have Fashion to talk about right? Eh. As you will see below there were a lot more misses then hits and even the hits weren’t that jaw dropping gorgeous. So lets start with the best dressed shall we… Taking the #1 place in my book is as always Lea Michele, this girl never disappoints at an award show.
The theme of this award show was navy blue in the lead and white close behind. Lea Michele, Jayma Mays, Jane Krakowski, Padma Lakshmi and Jane Lynch (Although they ended up on the other side of this pretty train) were all sporting this fabulous color. While Kim Kardashian, Rose Byrne, Amber Riley, Elisabeth Moss, Giuliana Rancic, Nina Dobrev, Mariska Hargitay and Claire Danes opted out for the classic white and it’s many shades.
Now lets move on to the worst dressed… The absolute worst was Mindy Kaling from the office. I do not know what that girl was thinking but she looks like she is going to her very own 80′s prom. Newly wed Anna Paquin who always dresses to impress, did not bring it to the Emmy’s. Her Alexander McQueen black satin frock with the gold gladiator shoulders was not working at all and covered up that hot body of hers. Nina Dobrev who I absolutely adore on Vampire Diaries seemed to channel her alter ego Katherine and looked the part in her Victorian one shoulder dress with a leg slit and way too much lace.
Mariska Hargitay looked like she was wearing a wedding dress (Seriously people, it’s a thin line, don’t cross it), Christina Hendricks from Mad Men… gosh what can you say about this one… her red hair and fair skin in a pastel purple gown with feathers; someone really needs to get in there and smack her around a bit because this is not the first time she put her giant gazoongas in an awful outfit and took them for a walk. As much as I love Emily Deschanel, she looks like she was eaten by a giant purple flower. Kerri Russell who is working on a come back with Amy Pohler’s husband needs to bring in Betty White to conduct an Easter egg hunt because those little nubs are in the wrong dress. Now if we put Christina Hendricks in that dress (Since she has the right stuff to fill it out) and change the color to black, she’d look pretty damn good. The Hills’ Lo Bosworth looks like she is going to a PTA meeting and last but not least, Sofia Vergara and Naya Rivera looked like they robbed the Miss Universe pageant.
Let It Be is a song by the legendary band, The Beatles, that was written by Paul McCartney and released on March 6th, 1970 as a single. The single reached number one in Germany, Italy, Australia, Switzerland, New Zealand, Norway and the United States and number two in the United Kingdom. It was the last single released by The Beatles while the band was still officially considered together.
The video might not be very extravagant but I like that it shows The Beatles at their best, creating music together and just hanging out. It even shows John Lennon and Yoko Ono together and all right before they finally broke up. This is a very special song.
Now this is one funny title if I’ve ever seen one. Think this is a joke? Apparently, 41-year-old Livia Bistriceanu swears (to God) that she and the Inception star are happily married and are expecting a baby together, who is none other than baby Jesus himself. Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Carol Boas Goodson issued an injunction against Bistriceanu (Or should we say Mrs. DiCaprio) on Wednesday forbidding her from coming within 100 yards of Leo or his property.
DiCaprio made the following statements at a recent court declaration: “Livia Bistriceanu was sending me unwanted and unsolicited letters in which she expressed delusional thoughts and irrational feelings, calling and showing up at business I am associated with and, most recently, locating and traveling to my private residence. I am frightened of Ms. Bistriceanu and feel that my personal safety, and the personal safety of those around me, is in jeopardy.”
Oh wait and my favorite: “Bistriceanu maintains a delusional belief that she is my wife and carrying my child, Jesus…and has threatened that we will live together forever..in His Kingdom”. Wow this is priceless. Leo also mentions that the Looney Toons who has been placed on psychological holds in the past—has vowed to live with him forever in the afterlife. I guess this situation poses only one question… What Would Jesus Do?
These two actors may look alike on the surface but when it comes to the details of their lives, they couldn’t be more different. So lets start with their similarities: teeth, lips, noses, shape of their eyes and even their manly eyebrows if you squint a little, and… that’s about it.
Their differences? Where do I begin! They are from two different parts of the world, Crowe is 15 years older then McKenzie, Crowe has made at least 12 successful films, while McKenzie has been in a few known Television series.
Russell Crowe has dated a few very famous ladies and is now married. Ben McKenzie on the other hand has dated one of the hottest young actresses but that’s about it. Guess he just doesn’t have as much game as good ole Crowe. That’s ok, it probably comes with age.
As for right now, Russell just completed a movie called The Next Three Days with Elizabeth Banks, Lian Neeson and Olivia Wilde, while Benjamin is starring in an NBC police drama called Southland. The show actually was canceled after it’s first season, bought by TNT who ordered 7 new episodes and then picked up again for another 10 episodes which will air in January 2011.

Seriously though! Recent investigations tracked the salmonella diseased eggs to two Iowa farms,Wright County Egg and Hillandale Farms. It seems that the chicks that arrived at the farms were perfectly healthy so the contamination most likely occurred at the farms themselves. Officials say that the current total of 580 million eggs recalled will most likely not grow.
The recall effects eggs sold under the following brands: Lucerne, Albertson, Mountain Dairy, Ralph’s, Boomsma’s, Sunshine, Hillandale, Trafficanda, Farm Fresh, Shoreland, Lund, Dutch Farms, and Kemps. If you have eggs from any of these brands and are afraid you might be infected, check the codes stamped on the end of the carton. The plant numbers affected are P-1026, P-1413, and P-1946. The dates (recorded in the “Julian format”) range from 136 to 225, according to a statement by the Egg Safety Center.
On the bright side, a few brave folks at the Canyon Ranch Hotel & Spa decided to investigate further into this matter. Turns out the salmonella side effects are worse than we thought and may cause temporary egg talk. This disease manifests itself by replacing commonly used words with words like egg and it’s many uses. This is what was found in their report:
listen up everyone this is no yolk
there is an eggpidemic among us
when apoached with the dilemma
scientist brains were scrambled
one scientist – Dr Benedict omelette whites
said he sees no over easy way out of this
on the sunny side up of things
the disease has not hard boiled over into surrounding countries.

Looks like our favorite True blood hotties – Alexander Skarsgard, Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer – have opened up for the camera… literally! The latest cover of Rolling Stone magazine features the sexy trio sans-clothing and covered in blood. It’s no secret that the HBO hit series has never been shy about exposing any of their stars but is this cover too sexy? Well People.com made a survey and the “people” have spoken. 67% (30,619 votes) think that the cover is fang-freakin-tastic! And 33% (15,302 votes) think it’s borderline soft core porn.
I really don’t understand why this is so shocking to everyone, Rolling Stone magazine has had plenty of “too sexy” covers (See below). Is it because there are two naked guys and a naked girl instead of the usual naked girl or two naked girls OR is it because the accessory they are wearing just happens to be blood instead of riffle shells or a guitar… who knows. What do you think? Is this toooo sexy to place in a magazine stand?
Have all my prayers really been answered? Oh hallelujah!!! Even though BRAVO hasn’t made any announcements about the Staubster leaving her NJ pals (Just like they haven’t about OC Housewife Lynne Curtin), Danielle has taken it upon herself to neither confirm or deny [wink wink] the rumors. The 48 year old striparella tweeted: “I’m not even thinking about season 3 right now, I am considering many incredible options that have been presented to me. Right now I just want to let fans know that we have a fantastic finale coming up next week and explosive reunion shows on August 30 and September 6”.
Let me tell something tu ju… YOU HAVE NO FANS! No one wants to know anything about you and no one will watch your solo show. You know it’s funny, I was actually listening to the radio down here in Miami – Y100 – and they were discussing Staub’s departure from the show. They were taking calls and one girl called in and said that she’s glad Danielle is finally leaving the show and even though she loves the Real Housewives of New Jersey, every time she watches Danielle, she gets a really creepy feeling like something bad is going to happen. At that moment I almost called in myself because I get that same feeling. There is something not right with this lady and I feel very uncomfortable watching her. In fact… as I am writing this, I’m thinking if she reads this, she’s going to find me and kill me in my sleep.
If the rumors are true I will be a very happy camper! Even though Mr. Smith always says that Danielle brings the drama to the show and that’s why everyone watches it, I disagree. Yes, she does bring the drama, but there are plenty of crazy housewives out there that can still bring drama but maybe in a less homicidal way. I would rather watch Kelly Bensimon over Danielle Staub any day, at least she’s entertaining. Rainbows and gummy bears FOREVER! By the way is anyone else hearing the Psycho theme song when looking at the picture above?
Looks like the How I Met Your Mother star, Neil Patrick Harris, and his partner of six years, David Burtka, are expecting twins this fall via a surrogate. After announcing the good news on the Ellen DeGeneres show on Saturday, he confirmed the next day on his Twitter: “So, get this: David and I are expecting twins this fall. We’re super excited/nervous/thrilled.”
It’s pretty funny how Harris always seems to play a womanizer on TV but in real life he’s a proud gay. From his hilarious guest appearance on Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle where he plays himself on Ecstasy looking for tail to his regular character on How I Met Your Mother where he plays well… a player.
Big congrats goes out to these two… I guess since they are not having the babies themselves, they can have as much champagne as they want!
Just as I predicted, Lauren Froderman and her prize winning booty are officially America’s Favorite Dancer! But was she a safe bet according to the judges as well? Nigel Lythgoe wasn’t surprised at all. According to Lythgoe, Froderman beat the guys by 2% last week and by 11:00pm last night, they already knew that LoFro was a sure bet. So what is Lauren going to do with all that money? She says get something for her parents and then save it! “I’m 18 and I’ll do crazy things if I have that much money”. So let’s see… She is a total bombshell, straight A student, cheerleader, volunteers at a preschool, responsible, loves her parents, just won $250,000 and a national Gatorade campaign with her picture on it AND she’s America’s favorite dancer! Really? I agree with Mia Michaels… I want to be her!
I cannot tell you how happy I am. Not only did Lauren totally deserve it but I finally picked the winner. As I previously mentioned on my memorable moments, Lauren caught my eye when she first auditioned and I just knew that girl is good! Every season I pick a hot blonde from auditions and follow her through the process. Since I only started watching at season 4, so far I’ve picked Chelsea Hightower who made it all the way to 5th place, Kayla Radomski who made it 4th place, Mollee Gray, who unfortunately stayed at 8th place and this season my girl Lauren Froderman won the trophy! I don’t know why they are always blonde… it really isn’t on purpose lol!
So what’s the deal with next season? Are the all-stars coming back? Well the jury is still out on that one but Nigel said that he would love to keep the all-stars. “I would like to look at possibly a top 20, bringing them to a 10, then introducing the All-Stars”. Sounds good to me… I wonder if they are going to keep the same all-stars or mix it up a bit.
One person I would like to see next season would be Mary Murphy. Not that I don’t like Mia “The Cutter” Michaels and her fantabulous lingo but I really really miss the hot tamale train. Lucky for me, Mary and my fellow fans agree… “Absolutely. If I come back on the show, it’s definitely a tribute to my fans. I know they’ve been writing in and going crazy on Nigel’s Twitter”. He called me and said, “Will you tell them to stop that damn hot tamale train?” Loving it!
Another juicy bit of gossip on everyone’s mind is of course Lauren Froderman and Kent Boyd’s upcoming nuptials. J/K… they haven’t set the date yet. Ever since they did that stunning ‘Collide’ number and smooched in front of millions of viewers (For longer then they should have ) the rumors have been going nutso over what was really going on between the two back stage. Straight from the horse’s mouth: “Kent and I are just very close,” Lauren said. “We definitely have a connection. We’ll see how it goes.” What did Kent say to that? “We’re just friends, but If we happen to do “Collide” on the upcoming tour, that’s 40 cities—that’s 40 kisses!”
After all that however, the most awesome moment of the night goes to Ellen DeGeneres – That lady rocked my socks! Big thanks to E! for the quotes and the video.
No, it’s not a joke. OC’s resident loopy housewife broke the news to us last Friday, August 6th, via her Facebook page. She will no longer be able to have plastic surgeries or afternoon boozing on national television. I know what you’re thinking, and I decided that life is no longer worth living if I can’t watch Lynne work out on downers, but we have to be strong, for Lynne! [Sniffle]
BRAVO hasn’t made any comments on their decision yet but Mrs. Curtin sure has: “I am broken hearted! I was so let down the way this came about! We were the last to know! I guess Bravo has to do what they have to do! I thought we had a great relationship! I guess I was wrong! Its funny how fast offers came to us from other places! That’s how we found out we were not returning! Funny how life can be!” Was BRAVO really that naughty that they didn’t even tell her themselves? I think Lynne was just being dramatic.
But do not fear my fellow Lynne lovers, because she thinks there might be a show in the works just for her and her Tequila. “Further rumor has it we will be back somewhere else on our own show! Hmmmm! I would like our new show to be totally honest! No retakes or do overs. You will see it exactly the way it really happens! Someone thinks a lot of people will tune in! That makes me feel better about things! Its important to keep a positive vibe in life no matter what is going on!”
Now that is television gold!!! When I grow up, I want to be just like her!
