Can We Just Leave Carrie Alone Yet?

Not even Carrie herself wants to go back!

Carrie Bradshaw is an icon. Her lifestyle is completely unattainable (you show me a columnist for a New York paper who has a closet full of Manolos, and I’ll shave my eyebrows). She’s the most fashionable woman in New York, and she’s not even real. Don’t tell me you have never looked at a wacky dress and thought, “That’s SO Carrie.”

She’s an aspiration. You know you’ll never have her closet or her men or her friends who always seem to always have time to grab lunch with her despite their real jobs. She’s pure fiction, but I still love her. And let me be clear, I know she’s self-centered. I know she only talks about herself when Miranda’s mom dies or when Charlotte learns that she can’t get pregnant, but her whole aura is still fabulous.

And now she’s going to be ruined.

The CW is as close to closing a deal to create The Carrie Diaries as Carrie was to marrying Aiden. The Carrie Diaries is Candace Bushnell’s prequel to Sex and the City and follows Carrie through her senior year of high school. Read More »


Top 5 Reasons I’m Pumped for ‘New York Goes to Hollywood’

hbjtlkqg_pxgen_r_365×505.jpgEveryone’s favorite diva is back! The lovable Tiffany aka New York is back on Vh1 in New York Goes to Hollywood to claim the acting fame she truly deserves. In New York’s fifth Vh1 performance I know we will see her star qualities shine. Here are the top 5 reasons I’m excited to view the spectacle.

5. I can’t wait to pick up more style tips from NY. I can’t wait to again learn how to apply fake eye lashes and what to do when they fall off. I want to see the wonders of blue eye shadow when applied up to the brow line. I want to see NY strut her stuff in glitter and metallic. I want to hear New York talk about her weave. I love when she fusses over it when it’s windy. I love when she refuses to get in the water because it will be ruined. I love that New York is bringing the concerns of weave wearers into light for the rest of the world. We should all only hope to one day be as fierce as Miss. NY.

4. I know in this new show we will see the rise of a star. Not that NY isn’t already a star, but this time we will see her Hollywood acting abilities shine. What notorious producer/director wouldn’t want to cast a gem like NY? New York goes to Hollywood will certainly show us how versatile NY’s talents are. I know we have previously seen her appear on a role in Nip/Tuck but that was just the beginning. I for one know I will buy a ticket to anything NY stars in. Read More »
