Workout song of the week: ‘Love Story’ by Taylor Swift
For the past couple of weeks, I get really hype when I am running in the mornings and “You Belong With Me” by Taylor Swift funnels its way through my iPod shuffle and courses through my veins. Now, I have found that her modern day Romeo and Juliet pop country tune “Love Story” gives me...

American Idol: Asians go to Hollywood!
John Park only hinted at the “I’m-in-an-Asian-family-therefore-my-parents-want-to-be-an-engineer/doctor-excuse” so that doesn’t make him the annoying typical reality show competition Asian boy. With his emo/preppy Pete Wentz bangs and his bellowing baritone, Park made waves in his audition in Chicago a couple weeks ago – and he made Shania Twain get all hot and bothered with her...
My love letter to Felicity Porter
J.J. Abrams is my hero. One day, I will write a script and he will direct it. Does that sound too stalker-ish? Anyways…second to Lost, I will be forever grateful that he created the lovelorn series titled Felicity – mainly because the gang on that TV show started college around the same time I did....
Another great Christmas gift idea!
Stroke and shake your way to a Merry Christmas.
‘New Moon’ star Kellan Lutz shows us his six pack
Well, he kind of showed us his six-pack. Tonight, stars of New Moon, Ashley Greene and Kellan Lutz were welcomed by throes of “Twi-hard” fans at Stonestown Galleria in San Francisco. First they stopped by Nordstrom and then they went on to the Goth headquarters of all that is Twilight, Hot Topic and they ended...
U2 and Jay-Z have a ‘Bloody Sunday’
I was actually kinda nervous about the Jay-Z and U2 collabo at the MTV European Music Awards, but after Hova got into the groove with Bono and company, it made perfect sense: U2 – New Music – More Music Videos I must admit, there was a moment where I was expecting Lil’ Mama to jump...
Julia Stiles is actually kind of funny
Julia Stiles has never made me laugh in any of her movies. Well, there was her role in the Bourne series, but I don’t think that was supposed to make me laugh. Then there is that one scene in 10 Things I Hate About You where she recites that poem. Again, I don’t think that’s...
A ‘Man’ shops for Anthropologie?
It seems that the peeps at the Sundance Channel are lovin’ these fashion documentaries. First, they found success with the Marc Jacobs & Louis Vuitton doc and now they have created a whole series called Man Shops Globe, which follows Keith Johnson, the buyer-at-large for Anthropologie while he shops around the world trying to find...
Waking up to Al B. Sure!
First thing in my head this morning: I don’t know how this happened, but I am so glad it did. It’s always good to revisit Al B. Sure! every now and again. It should be a requirement of every U.S. citizen. And please, when writing his name, please don’t forget the crucial exclamation point. It...
My ‘New Moon’ excitement goes to ‘another level’
I can’t help myself. I know I just did a post about New Moon and how it is going to be “edgier,” but I feel my inner tween breaking out of my skin like a bad case of Hannah Montana gums. I realize that I am behind on New Moon news, but I just saw...
‘New Moon’ buzzwords
New Moon, the second installment of the Twilight Saga, like many sequels, promises to be “stepped up a whole other notch” and “more complicated” and “exciting” and “pushed to the next level” and – well, let’s see what Taylor Lautner (a.k.a. Jacob) has to say: It looks like Sharkboy has done some great media training...
