Style Idol: Gorgeous and Glam Red Carpet Looks

red_carpet.jpg

So this week, rather than choosing a specific celebrity whose style I admire, I decided to give an ode to awards season by picking out some of the best red carpet looks of the season and explaining why these starlets succeeded in looking amazing.

You may not have any red carpet events coming up (What? You weren’t invited to the Oscars?), but that doesn’t mean you can’t learn a thing or two from these fashion experts. Read More »


Getting Creepily Close with the Cruz Siblings

99387.jpg Here are two things I know to be true; Penelope Cruz is hot, and helping family members succeed in life is awesome.

Here are two more things I know to be true; just because one family member is talented, doesn’t mean everyone else in that family got the gene, and two sisters making out—no matter how good-looking they are, is majority creepy.

The UK magazine The Sun is reporting that in an attempt to get famous fast, Penelope Cruz’s brother, Eduardo Cruz (who will now be know as “Sketchy Cruz”), has put his two sisters in his new music video—making out.

In the video, Penelope and Monica play sexy sound-dub artists who are putting the finishing touches on a lesbian porn tape. Something about the porn, plus Sketchy Cruz’s typical pop music sound, gets these two so riled up that they can’t help acting out their sexual tension.

Now matter how hard I wish I was, I’m not making this up.

But wait! The story gets even weirder. Read More »


The Enigma That is Matthew McConaughey

061006_bodyimage_vmed_4pwidec.jpgI’m sure some of his rabid fans will want to kill me after I say this, but I just don’t get the hoopla over Matthew McConaughey.

Everyone freaks out about this guy. Magazine after magazine goes nuts for his abs and workout habits and his abs and single status and his abs and his muscular, muscular abs.

Enough about the man’s chest! He’s just a guy, being fit. I don’t think it’s possible for him to get any fitter, so let’s just discuss something else.

Like how he’s part of the Paris and Britney club of Being Famous For Just Being Him. When was the last time McConau-hot had a movie that wasn’t lame?

Failure to Launch? Eh.

Sahara? Eh.

Two For the Money? Ugh.

We Are Marshall? Better than eh, but still not good.

And how come we never see MMc with a chick? He hasn’t been photographed with a girl on his arm since…I mean, I have no idea (didn’t he date Penelope Cruz at one point?).

Is he single because he just doesn’t go out? (too busy playing naked bongos?) Read More »


These Stars Have Their Cake, and Actually Eat it Too.

scarlett-johansson-size-10Both of my best buds are just some skinny bitches. Always have been, always will be. But their eat anything and still stay small bods are just not happening for a lot of the rest of us, and even at my best weight I probably wouldn’t be as small around as either of them. Ever since I hit puberty I haven’t been able to break below a size 10 at my best, though I haven’t been much past a size 14 at my worst.

I always assumed, however, from everything I saw on TV and in Hollywood, that in order to be considered beautiful as a female, I had be half the size I am.

Now I’m not going to give you some bull about how I’m perfectly happy with my body, I’m not. I’d definitely like to tone up and lose that tummy flab, but on my own terms, and in the meantime is it too much to ask to at least feel comfortable in the not even overweight body I’m in? But I have to face the facts; I am an average sized girl living in a skinny mini world, and the days when my weight would be considered acceptable and even hot (i.e. Marilyn’s day) are long gone.

Or so I thought. All my life I’ve been told that the thinner you are, the happier you are, the richer you are, and the prettier you are. Well if that’s the case, then why is it, in iVillage’s 10 Stars Over Size 2, every single one of those women are grinning their phat faces off? Umm, maybe it’s because they’re all rolling in the big bucks, and not starving or cutting themselves up with surgery to do it. Read More »
