Yow Yow!


We don’t ask to be role models

A lot of things that Taylor Momsen usually says leaves a nasty taste in my mouth. She’s a sixteen-year old girl who displays this attitude of “not giving a f—,” but I can’t help but wonder every time if this is just some sort of an act. Why so much angst? 

In a recent interview w/ Parade, Taylor Momsen finally said something that made sense. For the first time, I have found myself agreeing with her. 

“I don’t read that crap that describes me as having an attitude, but I don’t know why that’s a bad thing. Attitude is in the eye of the beholder. I didn’t get into this to be a role model for 7-year-olds. I have no interest in doing that, you know? If parents don’t like some of the stuff I do then they shouldn’t let their kids watch me.

 I smoke, so what? Why do people give a sh*t what a 16-year-old girl who they’ve never met does? It’s not like I’m sitting there going, ‘Kids, you should go buy a pack of cigarettes.’ When I walk outside with a cigarette and someone takes a picture of it and puts it on the Internet, it’s not my problem. I’m just living my life and I’m not gonna live my life for other people.”

She makes a good point. She’s no Miley, Selena, Demi, or Taylor Swift. She wasn’t in this to have little girls looking up to her. There are plenty of other 16-year old girls that smoke, I remember it around me in high school. So I guess…good for Taylor, for not conforming to be that role model. There are enough of those out there right now anyways.



Oscars Arrivals + Parties

What you’ve all been waiting for!

Anna Kendrick in Elie Saab Couture – 4.5

Big things are about to happen for Anna in terms of her acting career and her appearance on the red carpet. It’s too bad that Up in the Air did not win any Oscars last night because that is one of my favorite movies from last year and she was great in it. This gown is beautiful. I’m glad she didn’t go overboard with it. Only thing I would change would be the shoes.

Old Disney vs New Disney

Welcome to the world of Miley Cyrus, Wizards of Waverly Place, and High School Musical. Don’t get me wrong, I actually don’t mind watching them every once in a while and I’m not ashamed to admit it. When I was younger though, the Disney Channel meant so much more to me. They were more than just a television channel, their website was a kid’s playground. Now that I’ve typed that, I’ve realized how corny that sounded. Anyways, I bumped into two Disney Channel “Express Yourself” videos tonight. One is from 2010 with the new stars and the other is from…the old times, the good times.

I’m gonna go ahead and predict the favorite of the two.

I wish they would bring back Even Stevens and The Famous Life of Jett Jackson. I miss you Zoog Disney.



Grammy Arrivals

Lady Gaga in Armani Prive – well…what were we expecting? Something normal? I can’t judge

Move over Miley Cyrus and The Jonas Brothers, the purity ring is OUT. Now you can get the virginity certificate!

What does that mean exactly? It means now you have a super cool piece of paper stating that you’re a virgin (the cool way to let everyone know basically.)

Currently there are 215 virgins and counting! (oh c’mon I know there are more than that…)

Obtain your virginified certificate here



In the News…

- Michael Cera wanted to spend the entire day hanging out w/ the Jersey Shore cast… why?

- Laurie Ann Gibson (Making the Band) will choreograph Lady Gaga’s music video for “Telephone.”

- Barack Obama has appointed Amanda Smith, a transgendered woman, to the Commerce Department. She’s not the first to have a government post, but she also  ran unsuccessfully for the Arizona House of Representatives and was a delegate for then-Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-NY, to the Democratic National Convention in 2008 Source

- Martin Lawrence is producing a new comedy called “Love That Girl!” for black viewers which will be premiering on the cable network station TV One. Source

- Vince Vaughn married girlfriend Kyla Weber.

- Casey Johnson heiress to founder of Johnson & Johnson fell into a diabetic coma over the weekend, but later passed away. She was engaged to Tila Nguyen… yeah.



Metro Station quickly disbands

Today Metro Station’s drummer Anthony Improgo has made the decision to depart from the band. He is the second member to leave within two months after keyboardist Blake Healy. All that’s left is Trace Cyrus (Miley’s brother) and Mason Musso (Mitchell Musso’s brother)

Sad news when a band like this had great potential. And I’m not talking about their recent stuff… their EP was actually decent and I still find myself listening to it. I haven’t been following them for some time, but I’m going to say that they started going downhill once they hit mainstream.



In the News… [some really messed up news]

- Despite his entire personal life being splashed across the front pages of newspapers and tabloids and his god-awful new nickname of “cheater Woods,” Tiger Woods was still voted the top athlete of the decade. Really…?

- Bilboard has also declared Nickelback as the band of the decade. What is wrong with the world?


- Today, Cincinnati Bengals receiver Chris Henry passed away after he suffered severe injuries upon falling out of a pickup truck during a messy dispute with his wife. He was discovered on a residential road and rushed to the hospital, but it was too late. He was 26.

- Our country is beginning to lose that “hope” that we were instilled with when Barack Obama became President this year. The numbers and percentages regarding optimism and reflection over President Obama’s job in the office have been declining rapidly. The numbers are online somewhere I’m sure, I watched the segment on NBC nightly news last night. If you thought our unemployment rate was bad in Seattle… well it’s 50% in Detroit. Yeah, that’s terrible.

- When I was nine years old, I was singing along to Spice Girls. These days I guess it’s okay for a nine-year-old Noah Cyrus, sister of Miley Cyrus, to be singing Akon’s “Smack That.” Does the girl even know what the lyrics mean? Miley’s camp is cheering for her like it’s cute, it’s not cute. It’s just discomforting.

- Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal have finally called it quits after three years together.

- The Hills will be returning for a sixth season on MTV. Filming will start up after New Years. NOOOOOOOOOO!

On a happier note…

Kevin Jonas [The Jonas Brothers] and Danielle Deleasa will wed this weekend

Happy 20th Anniversary Simpsons! They premiered on television exactly 20 years ago.

- Project Runway season 7 will return to Lifetime on January 14th.

- American Apparel has just announced that they have launched a nail polish line.

While performing in Louisville recently, Miley performed her hit song “7 Things” but changed her lyrics from “Your games” to “You’re gay.”

 

hmmm this girl is about to be CUT.



Dream Out Loud

Selena Gomez is the next Disney Channel star in line to debut her new clothing line. Unlike Miley’s, I’m actually excited for this one? I adore the way Selena dresses and I’m diggin’ on these two looks so I can’t wait to see the revealing of her full collection for Fall 2010.

In the News…

- Because this is what Heroes needs to survive right? Word on the street is that this kiss, which will end up leading to some relationship on the show with Claire and her college roommate was actually Hayden’s idea. If you’re still watching this show (I stopped) you can catch the random make out sesh on next Monday’s episode on NBC.

- After Harry Potter is over, Daniel Radcliffe will be returning to the stage with the 1961 musical How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying


- Natalie Portman and Mila Kunis will play rival ballerinas in the new thriller out in 2010 called Black Swan. “They reportedly will participate in a racy girl-on-girl love scene” Is this the theme of the year?!

- Miley Cyrus has shut down her super popular Twitter because apparently her new boy and co-star Liam Hemsworth doesn’t think she should have one…because he doesn’t.

- Jennifer Lopez is going under another alias. Lola. hmm Beyonce – Sasha Fierce, Mariah Carey – Mimi… why?

- Ellen Page is writing a new comedy for HBO titled “Stitch N’ Bitch.” She will star alongside w/ actress Alia Shawkat. “…a show about two hipster girls who move from Williamsburg, Brooklyn to Silver Lake, Los Angeles in a passionate quest to be artistes.”I need my HBO back.

- Lady Gaga being FABULOUS in a new photo shoot.




AA Scandal

Keep pushing it to the limit American Apparel! The company never ceases to amaze me. Last month or two months ago, they had to take down some of their own advertisements because one of their models looked so young people thought it was child porn! The model was actually in her twenties, the girl just had a baby face! Yeah, I know where she’s coming from.

Anyways, the little Miley Cyrus wannabe above is working the leg warmers well, but her pose should be more Gap Kids then Agent Provocateur



Britney sings live – first time…in a very long time.

Britney Spears is notoriously known for her lip-synching. [pause] Don’t act like you didn’t know… In her defense, I’m sure it DOES require more work to sing and dance at the same time and it’s not like she hasn’t said before in interviews, “I’m a performer/entertainer.” She never said she was a singer! Then the world introduced us to Miley Cyrus and I thought if this fifteen year old girl can do then Britney sure as hell can too – she just chooses not to.

Tonight at her concert, Britney surprised fans when she decided to do a cover of Alanis Morisette’s “You Oughta Know.” Fans weren’t really expecting her to sing at all, just very good lip-synching and flawless dancing.

Yet, the video proves it. That really IS her belting it out. annnnnd I never said she was actually good, but it’s a step right?! And that’s always the hardest.



A Collection Part 6

In The News…

It’s a BIG news day. These will be my only posts of the day unless something relevant comes up. It’s finals week so you’ll won’t be seeing too much until Thursday :)

- Eunice Kennedy Shriver has passed away today at the age of 88. She was the founder of the Special Olympics.

- The famous Times Square Studio will no longer be home to MTV. The glass window is known for being a classic tradition during the live tapings of MTV’s hit show TRL – Total Request Live

- Last week news broke that Emmy Rosum had split with boyfriend Justin Siegel. Turns out that they were actually married and had a confidential marriage license.

-Twilight Barbies. Enough said.

The trailer for Heath Ledger’s final film “The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus” has been released.

- Jennifer Hudson gave birth to a baby boy with fiance David Otunga on Monday.

- In case you haven’t seen… Mac Book Touch

I hate Macs, but I still think it’s pretty. To read more about the article click here

Charlize Theron is gracing the cover of THE SEPTEMBER ‘09 issue of Vogue and because of the financial crisis we’re all living in, the fashion magazine has scaled down to a mere 584 pages this year. oh man more ads and less text I’m sure.

- Did anyone watch the Teen Choice Awards last night? It was completely all about The Jonas Brothers, Miley Cyrus and Twilight. Granted, the Jo Bros were the hosts of the night so that’s understandable.

- Kathy Griffin took Levi Johnston (Bristol Palin’s baby daddy) as her date. Then they talked about it on Larry King Live? and it was awkward to the max. This must be a sick joke.

- Miley Cyrus’s very controversial performance at the Teen Choice Awards performing “Party in the USA.”

I guess the pole part wasn’t that bad… but I can see why it might make people uncomfortable. DAMN what does Nick Jonas think of Miley now?! And this song is really catchy… can’t stop listening to it.

- 60 year old grandpa John Moyer has been sentenced to two days in jail, 180 days of probation and 50 hours of community service for publicly groping Minnie Mouse at Walt Disney World back in June ie giving her “fake Minnie Mouse boobs a squeeze.”

How did this go down in court?

“It doesn’t matter she was grabbed. She’s just a mouse,” argued the prosecutor. “It’s not just a mouse. It’s a person … It’s not OK to go to the diner and pinch a waitress’ butt anymore, and it’s not OK to go to a theme park and pinch a character’s butt.”

- Scott Schuman’s book “The Sartorialist,” featuring his profession as a photographer for street style will debut this Wednesday. I’ll be at Border’s reading it all Saturday.

- Some guy has a handgun strapped to his leg during a health care forum. In public. President Obama is attending and no one is doing anything about it really.

- and irrelevant Country music news. Brooks & Dunn are ending their music career after 20 years. no big deal.
