That Hair Just Looks Glued On

Angelina Jolie- as always- looks stunning. However, there has to be some type of photoshopping or extension done with her hair. It looks beyond FAKE- it doesn't even look like her hair is glued to her face. Thoughts?

Ummm... What Happened??

Is Aubrey O' Day's dress just going to fall off? And did her stylist decide like this was a good idea for a dress? It's NOT flattering at all.

Natalie Portman's Boyfriend Dares to Wear Short Shorts

It's a problem when your man is wearing shorter shorts than yours on a summer day.

Am I Being Punked?

This just proves to me that you don't have to have ANY skill to be a designer or have your own jewelry line. This "slutbag" necklace is $55- WHO ON EARTH WOULD PAY $55 to advertise that they are a slutbug?? And (I love this) their "tag line" is "Feeling a little slutty? Or a lot slutty?"

Look out for my new t-shirt line, the inagural season's shirts are going to say, "Jam Out With Your Clam Out" and "Vagina". And then I'm going to charge $105 and if they're on organic cotton shirts, $210. Yeah. That's it.

I'm Totally In

I just read a New York Times article about fashionistas purposely having chipped nails... Here's a short excerpt.

"PITY the mothers and grandmothers. Visible bra straps, glaringly obvious roots — these are but a few of the grooming no-nos that have become yes-yeses in recent years. Now there is another stylistic tic that would have been unthinkable on a proper lady in your Aunt Beatrice’s day.

Over the last few years — since the era of the skull print scarf, let’s say, or the (metaphorical) rise of the Olsen twins — having streaked, chipped or just plain grotty nail polish no longer suggests drug addiction, manual labor or pure laziness. Like untied high-tops, thread-worn jeans and bedhead, it’s now part of a deliberate look. And chipped polish is not sported solely by nail-biting school students and downtown punkers. It has been spotted uptown, in professional settings and gala parties, behind department store sales counters and even (gasp!) on beauty and fashion industry insiders."

Apparently, before, when nail polish was chipped you absolutely had to run and get it fixed,” said Ji Baek, the owner of Rescue Beauty Lounge and who has noticed the Olsens and Lindsay Lohan with less-than-impeccable polish. Now, clients like hers are “wearing perfectly-tailored clothes, they have $5,000 bags and equally fabulous shoes, but their nails are chipped and they’re saying, ‘I don’t care.’ They don’t want to be too perfect.”

That's just part of the article, but you get the idea! While I appreciate how much easier it is to let a manicure go a few days (trust me, I do), doesn't this just feel like an excuse to be lazy? Yeah, why be TOO PERFECT?

Ummm.. How Do I Say This Delicately?

To preface this blog, I've seen "alternative" wedding dances before - and for the most part, if the couple can dance well, then it's great. It's entertaining and fun. A bit non-traditional, but whatever. HOWEVER, when you're just going to jump around AIMLESSLY and lose your breath in the middle of a 6 MINUTE routine (WHY SO LONG??), then you should probably just do the spin and smile. With that being said, watch it and tell me what you think...

The "Perspective" Chair

Ummmm... who is going to be this chair? Besides Pharrell (yes, the rapper-musician-producer)who in colloboration with Domeau & Peres designed this "Persepective Chair". In case you haven't caught in, this chair is supposed to represent the "love" between a woman and a ban... It took me a while too. Anyways, this is only part of a larger colloection- there are other chairs and tables. The chairs will be available in a few colors and only 4 of each will be sold. What only 4? I'm sooooo surprised.

Just Advertising for Victoria's Secret

It's not often that I am able to spot and recognize items. So, when I saw Sarah McLachlan in this bikini - I thought Victoria's Secret. So, if you want to own it, it's on sale now at http://www.victoriassecret.com/ for only $42!

Mariah Carey Could Have Been a Professional Athlete

Mariah Carey threw out the opening pitch at the Yomiuri Giants vs Rakuten Eagles match at the Tokyo Dome yesterday, and let's just say it was the most impressive display of baseball I've ever seen in my life. Lord knows why she became a singer and not a professional pitcher.

Seriously though, you'd think she would've prepared a little before showing up. It's like instead of practicing throwing balls, she decided to just break both her arms to make sure they wouldn't function correctly. She could've dropped the ball and sort of nudged it with her foot and it would've been just as impressive. And that cloying smile afterwards - like hee,hee KILLS me.

Is This Karma?

It's pretty obvious at this point that not everyone appreciates Sharon Stone's brash, outspoken manner.... Stone's remarks have been met with major anger in China, where people have now promised to boycott her films. Um, what films? China figured this wasn't harming her enough, so they figured they would try her even more and get her CUT from the Christian Dior campaign.

Dior was one of the first international brands to enter China and has won the affection and respect of the consuming public. We absolutely do not support any remark that hurts the Chinese people's feelings. We express our sorrow over the compatriots who lost their lives in the earthquake in Wenchuan, Sichuan, and we extend our sympathy and condolences to the people in the disaster area." Stone has also done her mea culpas. She was quoted by the Beijing News, "In the course of the interview I made inappropriate remarks and for any harm created towards the Chinese people I am extremely sad and apologize."

TOO LATE. I guess it doesn't pay to hurt 1 BILLION people's feelings.

FLEX and the City

HAHAHAHAHHAHAHA... Sorry for all of the videos, but seriously this is AWESOME. I love it. This is just like the old people playing the characters on the Hills re-makes. Except here, for Flex and the City, Heavy replaced Sarah Jessica Parker, Cynthia Nixon, Kim Cattrall and Kristin Davis with body builders to reenact favorite scenes from th Sex and the City- the EXACT same scene with the SAME dialogue. No soft lighting needed here: Carrie, Miranda, Samantha and Charlotte are sinewy, sexy and can bench press at least 450 pounds.

So You Wanna Be A Playboy Model?

If you always wanted to flash your naughties in the pages of Playboy? Well, now the gentleman’s monthly has partnered with YouTube to pick a lady straight out of her trailer home, I MEAN INTERNET of course, to celebrate its 55th anniversary issue. With a tepid audience response (368,000 views in one month - I mean, come on- Soldier Boy had 16 million hits) and a dismally low number of video submissions (69 (coincidentally) videos submitted at the time of this posting), it looks like the Hef might want to stop trying to figure out “that damn computerbox.”

More Info (if you're actually interested): This year, to honor Playboy's 55th anniversary, Holly Madison is heading up a search for a very special playmate and thinks it might be YOU! We at Playboy invite you to post a video response to this video showing us why you should be the 55th anniversary playmate (no nudity allowed). Check out at our sample videos at http://www.youtube.com/playboycasting to give you ideas and come back and post your video for Holly to review! The top ladies will win a paid trip to Los Angeles and real Playmate test shoot under the guidance of Holly Madison. Submit your video today!

Jessica Wants You To "Come On Over"

FINALLY, a song by Jessica Simpson that seems OK. Given the HUGE success of her blonde peers (Carrie Underwood, Taylor Swift, and even Kellie Pickler)in the country foray, Jessica is finally taking a stab at it and "getting back to her roots." That should be read to say her label is TIRED of her TRIED pop attempts and if this doesn't work, she should hope that she invested wisely.

Hi, My Name Is Amy Winehouse and I Wear A Diaper.

Prepare to fall in love with Amy Winehouse all over again, as a German newspaper is reporting today that she has now begun to wear a diaper whenever she leaves the house. As Winehouse says, "Oh bugger, I've gone an' soiled my knickers I have." (I really want to say something different, but may be inappropriate for YPandBored's younger audience.) This story just can't be true - I mean crack hoes have FULL self control of their bodily functions, right? I mean, just ask Tyron Biggums (oh you know, the fictional crackhead character that David Chappelle used to portray on his show).

Does Anyone Look At Her Ears?

I guess it's not unusual to see a high-profile professional athlete score a million dollar endorsement deal with the likes of Adidas, Nike, and Reebok and as a condition of the contract, you have to wear their stuff during games.

But you would be hard pressed to find even the most flamboyant of athletic stars rocking semi-precious stones or diamonds while competing in their field of expertise. I mean, would T.O. rock a blinged out chain or studs during a game? DOUBTFUL.

Well, that is until now. Tiffany & Co. announced that it signed a two-year deal with tennis champ Maria Sharapova. Tiffany & Co. will outfit her at in eight different pairs of earrings over the next eight Grand Slam tennis events, including the French Open, Wimbledon and the U.S. and Australian Opens. Additionally, the pair of earrings Sharapova wears on court and at the various Grand Slam events will then be available immediately for sale at Tiffany's stores worldwide. N0w I need to know- chandeliers, studs... what are we talking? And honestly, who is looking at Sharapova's ears? Irregardless, aren't her ears covered with all that Nike crap?

Of course, it gets better. Tiffany & Co. has also accessorized Sharapova's custom French Open tennis dress. The "Paris dress," by Nike will be a 1920s-inspired ultra-light design that is finished with luminous Tiffany pearl button closures that fastens at the back of the dress. Is this necessary? Her hair is way longer than any back button enclosure!

Don't worry, I'm not jealous...arghhh... If only I drank more milk as a young child, enjoyed exercise, had uber genes to perform superhuman athletic feats...I'm sure I could be getting these multi-million dollar endorsements AND able to wear free awesome jewelry. But hey, I'm kinda "smart," that certainly makes up for it all.

A Bit Much or Appropriate? You Make The Call

Dunkin Donuts has pulled the above ad featuring (BLEH!) Rachael Ray wearing a black and white silk paisley scarf after a number of bloggers complained that it looked like a keffiyeh (a traditional headress worn by Arab men) and questioned whether people should boycott DD because of it. Seriously, did the bloggers really think that Rachael Ray or any of the others who simply wear keffiyeh-esque scarves as a fashion statement are Islamic jihad sympathizers? Dunkin Donuts issued a statement saying, "Absolutely no symbolism was intended. However, given the possibility of misperception, we are no longer using the commercial."

Great Non-Registry Gift

Sorry for all of these wedding posts, but I'm just at that age where I'm going to too many weddings! Anyways, I'm in this position where the registry is done- no items left - and I'm close to the bride, so I don't feel like a Bed Bath & Beyond gift certificate is personal enough (moreover, what if they file for bankruptcy?!?! Then my gift is a nullity!) Anyways, I didn't find too much, but had to post my personal favorite.

So cute, right? Personalize it with your invitation. $120.... I've got others, but do you really care? If so, e-mail me!

I Probably Wouldn't Have Bought This Stereo...

This is the car stereo salesman at Best Buy doing his best to pawn a new car stereo off on some chicks. Here's the deal- The girls just start dancing to some song on one of the radios, and dude decides to show them what he's made of (spoiler: he's made entirely out of awesome dance moves).

This Is Made For Lifetime

For anyone who reads this blog, this is seriously a MUST READ messed up story.

In this bizarre, completely epic, seemingly made-for-the-big screen true story featured in Wired, a 45-year-old former Marine living in upstate New York named Thomas Montgomery visited gaming site Pogo with a fabricated identity: that of Tommy, an 18-year-old Marine (with a 9" member) about to be sent to Iraq. In a chat room, he met Jessi, an 17-year-old West Virginian girl, with whom he fell in love over IM. There were times when Tommy couldn't be online because he was "on duty" — but that was really because Montgomery had a wife, two daughters and a job in a factory. Jessi, however, had more free time on her hands, so she would make video montages of herself for Tommy, set to Aerosmith power ballads. About eight months after they'd met online, Tommy proposed. Jessi accepted.

He sent her flowers; she sent him G-strings and dog-tags engraved "Tom & Jessi Always & Forever." Tommy told Jessi to send his mail to Thomas Montgomery, his "father."
Montgomery was consumed by his marathon online chats with Jessi. While at work, he didn't stop talking about her, telling colleagues that he planned to leave his wife and move to West Virginia. In the evening, he would chase his daughters off the computer, planting himself in front of the screen late into the night.At some point, Montgomery's wife, Cindy, discovered some of the items Jessi had sent. "I cannot believe is that you are living out some bizarre fantasy — as father and son," she wrote in a note to her husband. Cindy also wrote a letter to Jessi, enclosing a family photo and explaining that there was no "Tommy," only a 45-year-old man, his fantasies, his wife and two daughters (ages 14 and 16).

Jessi didn't know what to think, so she contacted a coworker Tommy had mentioned also frequented Pogo: Brian Barret. She wanted to know if Tommy was real or fake. Brian, 22, told Jessi the truth: Tommy didn't exist. But Brian and Jessi started messaging regularly. And that's when things took a turn for the worse. Brian boasted about IMing Jessi at work, and, not surprisingly, Montgomery started "acting erratic." And one day, as he was leaving work, someone shot Brian three times, killing him. Montgomery was charged with the murder, and while detectives were investigating, they also found Jessi's phone number on Brian's phone, so they contacted her.

"Jessi" turned out to be a 45-year-old mother of two who had used her daughter's screen name and pictures in all of the contact with Tommy and Brian.

There's several things to be learned from this story, among them that one should never, ever communicate with anyone in West Virgina and that To Catch A Predator's Chris Hanson will probably have a job for all of eternity.

FINALLY, An Answer...

To the age old riddle, "What is black, white and red all over?" Why, it's Gretchen Mol.

HAHAHAAHAHHAHAHA...

The detailing on Judge Judy's collar is just exquisite. However, when was the last time anyone saw her smiling in the courtroom?

Another Old Lady Outfit?

Is Beyonce just shopping in her mom's closet these days? I love the ensemble- but then the white hose and peep toes?Ay dios mio.

That Dirty Dancing Lift IS Harder Than It Looks, Slater

Seeing these pictures of Mario Lopez and dancer girlfriend Karin Smirnoff makes me cringe... besides the nipple on his nose, Smirnoff getting dumped face first in the water just looks painful. Anyways (this if for you, Dana), this just shows we need to give Patrick Swayze a little more credit...

Survivor for Kidergarteners

This story is so sad. Melissa Barton, a Port St. Lucie, Fla., mother is (rightfully) outraged and considering legal action after her son's kindergarten teacher led his classmates to vote him out of class. Barton says Morningside Elementary teacher Wendy Portillo had her son's classmates say what they didn't like about 5-year-old Alex. She says the teacher then had the students vote, and voted Alex, who is being evaluated for Asperger's syndrome -- an autism spectrum disorder -- out of the class by a 14-2 margin.

Click on the video below to watch the interview, it's terribly sad if it's real.

This Is Just Tacky

Sharon Stone gave an interview while on the red carpet at Cannes this weekend in which -- after recounting all of China's atrocities -- she wondered, "All these earthquake and stuff happened and I thought, 'Is that karma?' When you are not nice that bad things happen to you." Sharon went on to say she has come around and no longer thinks the death of over 60,000 people is cosmic payback...because the Tibetan people told her it's ok.

This Outfit Is Giving Me The Icks

What isn't wrong with this picture? However, I must say Beyonce's puke color nails are the mas egregious "don't" for me in this picture. Also pukey: the outfit, the earrings, the bag...

Huh?

What is Lily Allen doing? More importantly, what is she wearing? It looks like a one-sie meant for a toddler!

Whatcha Got In That Bag?

That bag is larger than the one I posted Eva Longoria holding a while ago... Couldn't Matthew McConaughey fit that lunch bag in that murse (man purse) of his? Or maybe he is getting excited and ready for the birth of his child and this is a diaper bag... awww, he's so sensitive. :) Doubtful, he probably has a fold up home gym in that bag.

Kinda Flat For the "Body"

If someone didn't tell me this was Heidi Klum, I would have thought good looking Midwest mom on vacation. Am I wrong? Not like I can talk... but I don't get $10 million a year from Victoria's Secret. If you want more pictures to decide, click below:

YESSSSSSSSSS!! Finally Caught Her!!

If you don't know, I am a major Kimora Lee Simmons hater. A major hater of her amazing hair, jewels, clothes... and to find this picture is a GEM, GEM and GEM.

I knew the bitch had extensions. Yes.

Fergie Is Kid Friendly

I posted Fergie's "painted on" pants the other day, but had never actually seen the performance or knew that the audience outside The Today Show that morning was apparently an elementary school. Knowing this, I guess Fergie thought it would be a good idea to flail around in those skin tight leather pants and hump the stage. As a special treat for the smaller kids, she also pretended to go down on her guitar player. It's just like an episode of Barney except with way more inappropriate sexual tension. What fun!

Note: Be sure to check out what happens at :28 - :32. Uncomfortable? Oh my, heavens no! And "Sock It To Me"... there must be some kind of filter.

NSFW...or Anyone's Eyes

Shania Twain Got Dumped For HER??!?!

I suppose beauty is skin deep....but this really is just "strange." Marie-Anne Thiebaud, the secretary who is allegedly responsible for breaking up the 14 year marriage of Shania Twain and producer, Mutt Lange, has been a "mystery" of sorts since this story broke last week. Until now. In an exclusive, People has the first photo of Thiebaud. Let's bring that back...Matt Lunge cheated on Shania Twain for that...woman?

Of course, it gets worse. Sources close to Twain that she is reeling from double betrayal from her husband of 14 years and a woman she considered a close friend and spent vacations and holidays together.

Eva and The Giant

I knew there was a height difference...but this is ridiculous. I didn't know Tony Parker was THAT much taller than Eva. One thing seems clear, Eva likes her bags and men big.

Insane

In the new annual Hot Bodies issue of Us Weekly, Christina Aguilera shares the diet and workout secrets behind her 40 pounds weight loss... BLAH BLAH BLAH... But in the interview, she finally addresses the famous growth in her chest that came from breastfeeding.

"It's kind of hilarious! I've never fit into an E-cup before," she tells Us. "I look at my husband and go, 'Guess what size this bra is?' And when I tell him, he's just amazed. We keep the tags that prove it, to look back for memory's sake!"

From X-Tina to E-Cup Aguilera.

Amy Winehouse Has Love For Blake In Her Heart...

And her hair.

WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THIS??

Sometimes an invention comes along that is so simple, awesome, and bound to change the world of canned drinking so drastically that you just have to stop and ponder, "Why didn't I think of that?" Well this isn't one of those, but it is can related. Introducing the Resealable Can by Ukranian inventor Johan De Broyer! You pop the top as usual with this design, and then when you want to re-seal it, you turn the pop top tab and it completely closes up the can again, good as new. The inventor says his invention can create a completely gas-tight and liquid-tight seal. An added incentive toward this idea's adoption is a space on the resealed top for advertising.

Amazing- I wonder how much "extra" it will cost. This is just GENIUS. Who doesn't like fresh tasting fizzy soda??

Important to Me...

I have a very long commute to work every day, so I typically "gas" up about twice every 10 days. That has really started to hit the wallet. What's worse now though are the increasing gas prices are clearly effecting airline tickets as well. So, if you're a frequent flyer like me, you'll enjoy this POV written by Scott McCartney.

Scott McCartney, who writes the Wall Street Journal's "Middle Seat" column, has some thoughts about what consumers can expect from airlines, now that oil has hit $130 a barrel. He says that "he change in oil prices from a year ago to today translates into $24.6 billion in added fuel costs for passengers and cargo airlines on an annualized basis," which is more than the airline industry has ever earned— its best year saw $5.3 billion in earnings. So what now?

It's very difficult for airlines to simply raise prices to levels that cover their higher fuel costs. Raising prices chokes demand: If tickets get too expensive, business travelers make alternate plans, pick cheaper airlines or buy discounted tickets further in advance. For vacationers, if prices get too high, they don't buy or they switch to cheaper destinations. Airlines can price themselves right out of a sale. So to avoid that, carriers have been slap-happy with fees added at the airport, not at the ticket purchase point. A family heads off to Disney because they got a good fare – then find themselves paying $300 extra at the airport in baggage fees. Fees are essentially fare increases that airlines hope won't choke demand. But slapping fees on customers here, there and everywhere won't solve the problem. Airlines will have to make big cuts in capacity, eliminating flights that just aren't profitable with oil at $130 a barrel (as of Wednesday morning). Fewer flights means skimpier schedules for many travelers. More important, it means higher fares. The price of flying has to go up if airlines are to survive.

Lesson of the Day: Book now before oil goes up to $150/barrel.

In Real News Today...

Maj. Margaret Witt, a former flight nurse, is continuing her lawsuit against the military for dismissing her because of her sexual orientation. Witt had been in the military for 20 years and was honorably discharged in July 2007 for a relationship she had with a civilian woman from 1997 to 2003. The Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals has upheld the military's "Don't ask, don't tell" policy and held that the government may only "intrude upon the personal and private lives of homosexuals" to "advance an important governmental interest," such as maintaining troop readiness or improving morale.

Discharging after 20 years? That's ice cold. I personally don't understand why sexual orientation matters, as Maj. Witt eloquently states, "Wounded people never asked me about my sexual orientation. They were just glad to see me there."

Could You Live Off of $52,000?

Charlie Sheen's friends are calling Denise Richards a liar. Richards says she's doing this reality show to make money and support her children. They say she "gets more than enough money from Charlie to never have to work, much less do a reality show that exploits the kids." Denise gets $52,000 a month tax-free in child support and previously received $60,000 a month (tax-free) for two years in alimony. Anybody think they could give it a try and raise two kids on that awfully paltry sum? To put it in perspective, Denise Richards gets $624,000 a year to raise two kids. In addition, Richards also gets a chunk of Sheen's sitcom, "Two and a Half Men," which "eventually will net her up to $25 million," the source said. UNREAL.

The Bald and The Beautiful

What do you think about Cameron Diaz bald? Not for a remake of Coneheads, but for a movie nonetheless.

Say It Ain't Say, Jason...

Anyone around me knows that I love Jason Taylor of the Miami Dolphins. I, in fact, even watched "Dancing with the Stars" a few times to watch him dancing like a queen. In any event, if Jason Taylor wants to pretend his football career is as important as his new Hollywood one, he's going to have to try harder. According to his blog (yes, he has one), Taylor says he'll miss the Miami Dolphins' mini-camp in lieu of "some things" he's gotta do in L.A.

But according to TMZ, Taylor is confirmed to show up at Mark Ballas and Derek Hough's joint birthday party in Las Vegas this weekend. That seems more important than training camp- I guess Miami can't have a season worse than 1-15, right?

Bye, Bye, Bye...

Boy band man Lou Pearlman -- the guy who made the Backstreet Boys and 'NSYNC famous -- just got 25 years in jail for money laundering and conspiracy, among other shady shit...gotta admit, he had a string of good hits. Big Lou pleaded guilty back in March to a long, complicated con game that basically pumped up his net worth and cheated other people out of millions. In return for his "honesty", the judge gave him the maximum sentence.

He did, however, have that small snafu... remember O-Town? With that being said, that "Making of the Band" was the Real World of making bands. Maybe Pearlman will produce records from jail...or not.

Didn't Her Sister Just Wear This? You Make the Call

This is just one reason why I wish I had a sister- to share a wardrobe...

That's Hot

Necessity is the mother of invention as they say and as these stripper shoes with a tip jar in the platform would illustrate. And at $47.99 from Funky Pair (your one stop shop for stripper shoes), they cost less than the price of a lap dance. Just don't ask why I was originally on this website... I'm thinking white for the summer and the black ones after Labor Day. Who's with me?

Another Interesting Public Service Announcement

I posted the "informative" PSA by Kim Kardashian a few days ago and needless to say, I wrote it off, because frankly, I can't take Kim Kardashian seriously. However, I came across this PSA featuring Harrison Ford... I would say equally "interesting". Just so I'm clear- does he get his chest waxed to stop deforestation? Who thought of this analogy?? Whatever, I'm still seeing Indiana Jones!

Next Time You're In Key West

A new dessert restaurant opening in Key West is already turning some heads with its racy name and suggestive menu. "Better Than Sex" opened today and is wwned by husband and wife TEAM Dani and Len Johnson. The restaurant will offer a variety of decadent dessert.That includes sweets with names like Missionary Crisp, Pump-in Pie and the Pop My Cherry Cheesecake, Naked Nut... I'm voting that nothing beats the real thing...

Seriously- What Are They On?

Amy Winehouse and Pete Doherty made a YouTube video together that can only be described as "WHAT THE DOUBLE FUCK?!" It's essentially the two of them playing with, no joke, newborn mice and babbling incoherently. Though at one point, Amy uses them to deliver a message to her incarcerated husband Blake and says, "This one's [newborn mouse] got a message from Blake," she says. "Blake, please don't divorce mummy. She loves you ever so. Hang on, my big brother wants to say something."

Taking another mouse from Doherty, she continues: "Yeah, if you divorce her you'll have me to deal with. I'm only a day old. I don't know what I'm doing but I know what love is." If Pete Doherty, drugs and baby mice can't save a marriage, then, shit, I don't know what can. Maybe Amy should try food, I heard food can be quite comforting.

First

This is the FIRST photo I've ever seen of the ever so precious Shiloh Jolie-Pitt walking on her own. For a while, the press had me believe that she was indeed a demi-god that just couldn't bare to make contact with the ground that us mere mortals walk on.

Try Not To Be Blinded

Overall, the jewelry market has seen signs of weakness lately but the tip of the market is still going strong (typical). The blue diamond shown above is a 13.39 carat stunner which sold for a world record price of $8.9 million at a sale at Christie's in Geneva last Wednesday. Just in case you're curious, this stunner is set with a rectangular-cut fancy intense blue diamond weighing 13.39 carats and then micro pavé-set with fancy pink diamonds - because white would have been too "pedestrian".

I Don't Normally Do This...

I feel like I've said this in the past, but as you know, I don't watch the Hills and usually do not post about anyone or anything on the "Hills". However, I came across this picture of Audrina Patridge and her sister and had to post it.

I wonder why MTV hasn't tried to get Audrina to make her sister "have lunch" with her more often. Thoughts?

Shout Out to Ashlee

One of my friends, Ashlee Norman, pens the blog, "Watch Me Turn 30" and it is indeed one of my daily guilty pleasures. In any event, I'm re-posting one of her most recent posts, just because I find it amusing.
