Jimmy and Drew Set a Record.


There are some pairings that warm your heart. You know it's not romantic, just really epic friendships. I feel like Jimmy Fallon and Drew Barrymore are like this. Say what you will, but I liked "Fever Pitch". It was cute. Jimmy had a pretty significant role in "Whip It!" and they just have that comfortable/adorable thing going on. Love them. Individually, I like them, but together it's love. Only as friends though. If they were romantic it would be ruined. Plus Jimmy is married to her best friend (and business partner in Flower Films).

Saw "Whip It!" on Friday. Funny movie. Go see it with your girlfriends (and guyfriends, trust, there is stuff for them as well) when you're bored. It's that movie. Really funny.

Surprise: Maeby Funke is in it! Loves it. She was kind of small town trampy, but we're chillin on it. I'll post my review for the paper sometime tomorrow for those of you who want to go in depth.

Glee Whips Into Shape.


Glee's Chris Colfer and Dianna Agron were looking fab at the "Whip It!" premiere in Hollywood on Wednesday night.

Did you watch "Glee" last night? How amazing was Kristin Chenoweth? Love her. Speaking of- "Somebody to Love" gave me goosebumps. Possibly the best "Glee" has ever done. Loves it.

Whip It Good.

Hmm. I probably won't see Whip It! Will it be worse than some other movies that are being made? Probably not. Will it be as good as Drew Barrymore is tying to make it out to be? No.

One thing that is super annoying me about her is how she keeps trying to make roller derby sound like the solution to all the world's problems. Listen to this:

"I just want women to embrace several body shapes. That’s the thing I love about derby. It’s really welcoming."

Um. Ok, sure. We'll take your word for it Drew. She also gets really creep on Ellen Page-
"She was in her frickin’ bra and with an open jacket and hot-pink shorts, skating around the rink with red lips and… and she was sexy as a mother…. a feral creature. It was great."

Sit down Drew Barrymore. We get it- you're directing for the first time. Stop trying to be real cool.
