Hello, lover...
I finally, finally, finally got to a theater to see the Sex and the City movie this afternoon. I can't give you a rundown without revealing all the details. Suffice it to say it was absolutely worth the wait. Seeing the girls together again was fabulous. I laughed, I cried, I even gasped. Get to a theater as fast as you can see this film. It's the event movie of the Summer!
What's up with rehab?
Stories have been appearing lately about B-list stars who've either gone to (or been sent to) rehab who claim they aren't there to deal with drug or alcohol addictions. Ever since Grey's Anatomy star Isaiah Washington went to rehab for "sensitivity training" it's become a game of publicist one-upmanship to see what crazy reason they can give for their client's stint at Cirque Lodge. Some recent favorites:
- Eva Mendes - she "might" have been researching a roll. She plays a female drug king pin in an upcoming project. Um, rehab is filled with addicts honey, not dealers.- Kirsten Dunst - she was depressed and just need a place to hang out until it passed.
- Steven Tyler - he had foot surgery and couldn't get any privacy to recuperate, so he yup, went to rehab.
What's next people? Winona Ryder checks in for help with "shoplifting issues" or Britney Spears checks in for "parenting lessons". This is getting ridiculous!
At last, my love has come along
Okay, so I'm not in the market for boots. It's almost Summer after all. However, when I stopped by ColeHaan.com this morning for a little cyber-window shopping I found these. The shine, the Bottega-esque leather weave, yum. This is just about the sexiest boot I've ever seen. Still, with a sale price of $559.95, out of my price range. But a girl can dream...right?
Just say no
These may look good on Carmen Electra, but you'll never see them on me. I like high heels as much as the next girl, but these are just ridiculous. I trekked over to Piperlime.com this morning and was confronted with an entire page of these nightmares. Hey guys, I want to look like a woman of style, not like I'm for sale.
Stop torturing me
Sarah Jessica Parker rolled into the New York City premier of Sex in the City in this amazing dress. I can't reprint the photo, but you should really check out the link. She looked like a dream. And for once on this promotional tour, she didn't look like she was dressing as her character, Carrie. When, oh when is this movie going to hit the theater? I know it's this weekend, but the wait is killing me!!!
Hello Gorgeous!
Okay, admittedly I've been spending too much time surfing through my local Banana Republic store. However, this I just had to share. The last time I cruised through BR I found a gorgeous straw clutch that I'm just dying to add to my ever expanding purse collection.
You tell me, could you resist this little beauty?
File this under dubious awards
OK! magazine announced this week that Nicole Ritchie will be a recipient of the "golden pacifier" award from Babytalk magazine. Yup, 6 months of motherhood, and she's totally reformed folks. That getting high and driving the wrong way down the freeway is a thing of the past. Now Nicole is a model mother. If they could just get her to marry Joel Madden, they could vote her "bride of the year" as well. Ugh, a wedding with Paris Hilton as bridesmaid is just too gross to contemplate.
Yum
I don't usually buy Banana Republic shoes because they're expensive and they make my feet hurt. For these gladiators though, I might almost take the risk again. Gorgeous!
If you're gonna be a cougar...own it
like Sharon Stone does in this rockin' dress. I love this woman. She has done more to raise money for AIDS research than anyone since Elizabeth Taylor. Who else could get Madonna (and her husband no less!) to come to the party and plunk down some major cash? She even convinced Madge to auction off her own handbag! Kudos to you Sharon.
Money quote of the day
"I'm stockpiling canned food, water, and matches because I just read that Paris Hilton plans to breed next year. The end of times is nigh!"

I'm back!
Okay it has literally been killing me not to write this blog. I get the odd request here and there to restart the website. (Thanks for the love X-tina) Well maybe it's time. There's so much going on in pop culture that I could talk about. Like the fact that Nicole Richie and Christina Aguillera are considered model parents. Or that Jessica Alba got married this week and didn't invite anyone to her wedding (ashamed of the groom perhaps?). Or that Pete & Ashley had an Alice in Wonderland themed wedding (what are you guys, 12? Wait, maybe Ashlee is).Since I'm already writing for two other blogs I'm going to try an experiment. I'll drop a few posts a week and see if anyone is out there. If you'd like to post something yourself, just leave a comment, and I'll find you and give you rights to write for the site.
