teevz: straight up, paula! posted by Chris comments (3)

Okay, did anybody tune in to Paula Abdul’s new reality TV show this week on Bravo? OMG, I was so excited to watch it, I could hardly breath! This was, by far, the best, most craziest thing I’ve watched since the Pussy Cat Dolls. First tho, who came up with the name “Hey Paula”? It so obviously should be called “Straight Up, Paula”, riiight? But seriously, I could totally relate to Paula’s insomnia! I’m always working on the site or watching OnDemand at 4AM… Just caught John Tucker Must Die, great flick. Anyhoot, I also couldn’t figure out why they booked Paula to appear on QVC at 1AM! She’s like a major star, couldn’t they fit her in at prime time? Is 1AM prime time for QVC? Hmm, could be.

But fer realz, I know they showed Paula all sleep deprived, jetting around from the Grammy’s then off to QVC and then to a press junket for Idol, but was she totally vasted or what? I defs think Paula had a couple cocktails here and there… Totes relate there too, whoops! My fave part tho, was at the end of the 2nd ep, she’s like beyond tired, falling asleep in the limo and in a kinda “talkin’ in your sleep” way, she just says “I love Dunkin Donuts”!!! Yummz, buttermilk! Or maybe it was when she asked the Irish tourists at Starbuck if she could stay with them next time she’s in Ireland! Vasted! Oh Paula! Do-Do Ya Love Me… YES!!!!

let there be light posted by Chris comments (6)

OMG, I’m so happy that Paris is outta jail and back to her old tricks. C’mon, I’m sure the Lord approves, He did say we should rest on the 7th day or something! Anyhoot, whether you think Parz shoulda stayed in jail or not, you have to admit, she looks pretty amazing frolicing in Hawaii in her bikini. I do some of my best spiritual reflecting and comtemplating while tanning in my Missoni bikini, don’t you?!?

this week was a knockout! posted by Keith comments (12)

Wutta week! While summer has crashed into us and we’re all melting in this warehouse with no A/C, guess what I am doing? I’m stocking the store for winter! Have been on a buying blitz all about cold weather: coats, thermals, hats, scarves, ugh! But, anyhow, some supes cute things coming…

Can you spy that Harajuku Lovers zip-up behind me? It’s so RAD!! I could rock that look, right? Um, don’t answer that. I’ll try and give ya some previews of some awesome things next week, if you think you can handle it. I know someone was like, Argh! pleeze don’t show me a composition notebook duffel as my summer is just starting… Soooo you might not be quite ready to check out the cutest Charlie Brown scarf? But maybe you are.

For fun, I thought I’d show you something that didn’t turn out so good. Amy designed these adorably demure donut bangles and the samples came back so giant HI-larious that I busted out laughing when I opened the package. Ah well, back to the drawing board. Have a POW! kind of weekend, okay?

trailor trash! posted by Chris comments (6)

What now, right? Well, if you didn’t think there was enough trashy drama in Britterz’ life… There’s more! Britterz showed up on the set of Jaime Lynn’s TV show in Ventura, CA yesterday to hand deliver some legal papers to her mom, Lynne! I don’t think it’s an actual restraining order but I do believe it’s the official letter from Brit’s lawyers stating that Lynne best stay away from the boyz while she’s on some sorta medz. Jeez, what in the hull is up here. I mean is Britterz really that pizzed that Lynne HELPED her by sending her to rehab. I mean, did rehab really hurt her that much? It may have gotten her off the hooch but but it definitely turned her on to other vices… Someone should start a rehab for poor taste! I do hope the ladiez manage to work it out and clean up the TRASH! In other Britterz news: I just found out that she’s pulled out of her special performance this weekend at Cyndi Lauper’s True Colors Tour in LA. They wanted her to sing LIVE. Hmm, imagine that!

aloha paris! posted by Chris comments (7)

OMG, I hardly recognized her?!? Yeah, right! No disguise can fool me! But seriously, it’s been a tuff month for Paris and right after her Larry King interview she got on a plane and jetsetted off to Hawaii for some well needed R&R! Who could blame her… I mean her home for wayward women can wait a week, riiiight? She touched down in Maui yesterday, sporting the simple life: no bodyguards, no entourage, just her disguise of a brown wigginz, a straw hat and a hospital gown… Tres Glam! Even superhero’s need a break! Go get ‘em Parz!

“i’ve been a little immature” posted by Chris comments (8)

OMG you guys, I can’t even believe it, you’re gonna be so mad at me! I totes forgot to watch Paris’s interview last night with Larry King. What was I thinking? It was just to hot at work yesterday and when I got home I plopped on the bed and got sucked into watching “Deja Vu” OnDemand… Oh, I love that Denzel Washington. But my reliable sources got me all up to date this morning on Parz! Okay, so if you live under a rock, you might not know, but last night Paris Hilton had her first interview since being released from the slammer Tuesday! Let’s check it out…

Okay, I think she looked absolutely beautiful and classy in her beige BCBG dress and cascading blonde locks! Parz seemed very demure in her delivery too. She dropped quotes like “I’ve been a little immature in the past and made some wrong choices. But they made me who I am today,” AND “I felt like this is a new beginning for me,” AND “There’s just so much more to me than what people think.” She also talked about Britterz, saying that she’s a sweet girl and a good mom… Hmmm! Okay! She really seems to have pulled it together… But I guess the proof is in the puddin’, so we’ll she how she behaves now! Well Parz, you survived! I knew you would! She’s totes like a Hollywood superhero now, doing good all over tinsel town… Let’s hope!

MaK: warrior princess posted by Chris comments (4)

Oh no, don’t blink, you might miss this fashion icon in the wild! Look, over there, it’s Mary-Kate looking ever the ferocious goddess that she is! Check out MaK as she grabbed a little snackette with twinster, Ash at LA’s hot dining spot, Il Sole, last night. Now I gotta just mention that outfit!!! I love the firtly mini mini and the wild animal accessories are so supes hot right now (Better be fake Mak!!! Gotta be responsible) but those gladiator sandals are gross! I would much prefer the strap on bricks. I think such a high shew makes a petite person appear mas petite, no?!? And it sure does seem like MaK is all boo-hoo! She must be super bummed to hear about Liz Claiborne passing away! I know I’m bummed! I’m sure Liz is a totes inspirado to our fave minichire gazzillionaires! Liz was the first lady run biz to ever hit the Fortune 500 after all! We’ll miss you tunz Liz!!! And in other Full House news… What’s up with Uncle Jessie??

PROPER INTRODUCTIONS! posted by fred flare comments (15)

How rude of me! I just realized I never properly introduced myself on here – so let us make this short, sweet, and to the point! Hi, I’m Julie. If you have not already you can read allllll about me here. Yes, I know, I am kind of a nerd… but who isn’t really, right?! P.S. I’m in love with this shirt right now..

A few things you should know about me as of late:

1. I’ve been buying a bag of dixie cup ice cream at least once a week to keep stocked in the fridge here. I can eat about 3 dixie cups in a day now. Healthy times!
2. I’ve only really been listening to jazz again mostly (or Kings of Leon). The jazz is relaxing! Try it!
3. I love Frank Sinatra. It’s weird.
4. I have been itching to buy My So Called Life on DVD… let me know if you see any deals out there!
5. My roommate and I want to buy a hedgehog. We’ll call him Bob. They are cute, c’mon!

Okay, that’s about it for now… can’t wait to meet all of you on this here interweb!! ; )
