Happy Birthday... You!

This is the ultimate Lohan move. I'm pretty sure Paris coined it, but Lindsay's mastered it. This move is: The Sponsered Birthday Party. Jessica Lowndes of 90210 tried it last night in Las Vegas. I'm just going to go ahead and call this one a fail. Starting with the outfit, I'm not a fan of this open chested look. I feel like she should be prepping for heart surgery. And, then- the hair. What the hell? It's awful. I just can't even deal with that.

But, no other stars showed up for her 21st. Not even her co-stars. Can't blame them though. Party looks lame.

Life is not so Beautiful

The Beautiful Life: TBL is over. I watched half of its season, which comes out to be one episode. It was painful. That's really the best way to sum it up. The guys were too ripped. The girls were too short and, sadly, not thin enough. It was just not something I cared about despite my love of fashion mags. That black in the corner was maybe 5'7". Maybe. Glad, it's over. Bring back VMARS.

Isn't that whats-his-face from High School Musical? Um...Corbin Bleu.

I just looked it up. And, it is Corbin Bleu or Corbin Bleu is one of them... I don't know who that is though.

Alright, we'll I will settle it, it is Corbin Bleu. Hmm. That's weird, he is not that pretty.

He played the child star left behind that hooked up with a cougar model exec. But, I think he wanted to be a DJ. That's what I got from the first episode.

Oh, ok that makes total sense. I can see him being that. I feel like this show is more a discussion than it is an actual show. Like right now for instance.

It's Not that Bad

Remember when Mischa Barton went crazy a few weeks ago? Checked herself into a mental facility, before the start of press tours for The Beautiful Life : TBL? She was removed from her home on an involuntary psychiatric hold.

I'm not going to make a joke about this, because good for her for going to get help for herself. I imagine her life can be difficult - every now and then... on occasion.

Anyways, Mischa went on The View claiming she basically went crazy because her wisdom teeth were removed (here's the link). Um... Okay, Mischa. I thought I was in pain - more so extreme discomfort. But, Court can vouch, I wasn't on my way to the hospital. A week later, I was weening myself off my meds and despite trouble sleeping, perfectly fine!

If you don't want to talk about being the the psych ward, don't. But, we can all smell the BS in this story. I know people that have had shattered tooth roots in their gum and never had to be checked into the psych ward.

All I will say is that Theo is addicted to the happy pills they gave her after she got her wisdom teeth out. She is however, functioning well and not Mischa Barton crazy. So, using her as an example, addiction does not necessarily make you crazy. In fact, it made Theo so much fun! There is a lesson in there somewhere. Become addicted responsibly- like me with Diet Coke.

Vamp It Up.

The premiere of The Vampire Diaries is tonight at 8/9 c on the CW. I cannot wait for this new CW insanity. Love their shows, mostly at the beginning with less and less tolerance as it goes on. Instead of talking more about this, I'm just going to put my article from The Observer in here:

Based on the book series by L.J. Smith, "The Vampire Diaries" follows a small town beauty and her brooding vampire male lead. Stefan Salvatore (Paul Wesley) becomes obsessed with Elena (Nina Dobrev), a girl who is a dead ringer (no pun intended) for an old love. The two bond over journal writing, angst-filled stares and trendy clothing. Their love, which is fraught with the usual peril, is in immediate jeopardy when Stefan's less than upstanding vampire brother, Damon (Ian Somerhalder) using smoke and crows as an entrance, comes to town. Elena finds herself in a dangerous love triangle just as the people around her are being attacked by a mysterious assailant.

The show plays on many vampire myths. While "Twilight" and "True Blood" choose to keep away from distorted faces when the fangs come out, "Diaries" seems to mix between that and Joss Whedon's animalistic morphing, in a bug-eyed Dorian-Gray-like aging transformation that the CW still makes it look attractive.

Seriously, WATCH. I will be discussing tomorrow.

Kill Me. Figuratively.

This looks so stupid. Cannot identify with the main girl. She is slutty and stupid. It's so cheesy and I hate the gag me drama music. But will I watch it? Yes.

Why can I not control this? I think I understand how reality tv shows are still on the air. And why So You Think You Can Dance is so damn popular.

The Misunderstood Runaway.

Ok talk about contracting "I think I'm real cool". Taylor Momsen shopping with her mother. Taylor has created this alternate reality in her mind where she is a misunderstood teen runaway who just rolled out of bed wearing blood red lipsick and $200 sunglasses. This so called runaway made those fug bracelets in the garage of her house to get away from the pain of her parents not understanding her. Now they're all she has. Just her, her talent and a dream. Plus a little Starbucks along the way.

Here's the reality: Taylor Momsen is a pampered CW television star. Start shopping at Abercrombie and Fitch like the rest of your kind. It's who you are.

Why does he have to be black?

Most of you won't understand, because this is a question African-Americans ask themselves whenever a high profile criminal case has a black suspect (i.e. Michael Vick). So, I'm sure lots of black people sighed and shook their heads over this article.

Antwon Tanner, more commonly known as Skills from The CW's "One Tree Hill," was arrested as the middle man in an identity theft ring in April in NYC. He comped to selling 19 Social Security cards (3 of which were fake) for over $10,000.

Stuff like this just makes me sad, just because you don't want to be a role model doesn't mean you aren't.

A true test of character is how you act when you think no one is watching. Well, Antwon, your character sucks. The only thing that could maybe redeem you in my book is if you were going to donate all of the money to a widow of five whose husband died in the war... I'll be waiting.

Really Ashlee Simpson-Wentz? Really.

A satin short-suit/corset. What the fug. Also, she is turning into a bit of a lollipop head.

As our friend NeNe would say, she needs to go eat a sandwich.

This has been REALLY? With Courtney and Theo.

The outfit below on Katie is actually much worse. With the right carpet, a better actress and a less gaudy necklace this could work. Rompers are in.
