How to become Paris’ BFF

When I heard about Paris Hilton’s genius of an idea of looking for a new pal for a reality TV show, I thought what a ludicrous joke it was. But apparently it’s true. My favorite Toronto Star columnist Vinay Menon came up with a simple 10-point guide to succeeding as Paris Hilton’s BFF that had me laughing my head off. Here’s some mid-workday humor for you

1. STAYING IN TOUCH

Then go find an agent.

My favorite Oscar’s best-dressed

I didn’t watch the Oscars last night, but everybody has to pick a favorite best-dressed actress right? Mine is the Hollywood’s Nicest Actress Anne Hathaway. I just love her. She’s always so elegant and poised. This grecian goddess dress is to die for and cannot look any better with her gorgeous milky skin. Her makeup and hair was perfection. I’m really glad she did an up-do to really show off beautiful neckline and rosettes.

Who’s your favorite?

Heath Ledger dead?!

OH MY GOD, I couldn’t believe it when I heard it on the radio today as I was driving home. Who would’ve expected Heath Ledger in such shocking news? He was hardly in the tabloids. Only 28 years old and now his 3-year-old daughter is fatherless. What a tragedy. “CNN and the NY Times are reporting that Heath Ledger was in fact found dead at an apartment that was owned by Mary-Kate Olsen. Heath Ledger’s autopsy is scheduled for tomorrow. He was found face down on the bedroom floor.”

Keira Knightley and Atonement – a perfect marriage

A UK poll by high street chain Superdrug has found Keira Knightley is Britons’ beauty icon for 2007. I’m sure the movie Atonement has something to do with it. Have all of you seen the movie? Isn’t it just a beautiful picture? Keira Knightley looks divine in it. Don’t you just love the emerald green dress she wore?

From the Press Association: this dress has been voted the best film costume of all time! It even beat out Marilyn Monroe’s white dress in The Seven Year Itch and Audrey Hepburn’s little black dress in Breakfast At Tiffany’s! That’s something.

Tinz TV? I hope it’s true!

Anyone who cares about or follows the society world of NYC knows Tinsley Mortimer is the IT girl on the scene. She gets a lot of flack for being a social climber and appearing in the media non-stop. True or not, I still quite like her style. I love her perfect blond hair, doesn’t she look adorable? I read in The New York Observer that she might get her own TV series. Well, I hope it’s true! She admits that she’s “never done effortless chic well. I do better looking very feminine with everything tucked into its place”, which works for her I think. She sticks to her own style even though some people criticize her.
And I like the look of her Samantha Thavasa bags judging from the party pictures she’s in carrying them. They seem hip, bold, and trendy, which definitely has a place in a girl’s wardrobe. I hope she does do a TV show, I’ll keep my eyes peeled.

Heidi Klum wants you to eat McDonald’s

Think Supermodel Heidi Klum eats McDonald’s herself? Methinks not. But I’m sure she gets paid handsomely for being in the ad.

Audrina’s new man

Looks like The Hills’ girl Audrina Patridge has finally come to her senses and dumped her douchebag boyfriend ‘Justin Bobby’ and found herself a new man, Tyson Paige (who is he?) He’s hot and he doesn’t have dirty hair like Justin Bobby. Vast improvement, Audrina!

By the way, I can’t wait to see next week’s episode. Lauren and Heidi are finally gong to confront each other! But Star Magazine’s reporting that their feud was staged and now they are all friendly with each other again. Hmm…

Can you work this diet?

Adorable Lily Allen dropped from a size 12 to a svelte eight by following Posh’s diet, herbal tea for breakfast, sushi for lunch and raw vegetable crudites with dried fruit for dinner. I could totally do this diet (except for the raw vegetable. Yuck). When we go to our favorite all-you-can-eat sushi place, I can pound back raw fish like you wouldn’t believe. My friends are always amazed at where I put all that food. They think one of these days I’m going to put the place out of business. It doesn’t help me lose any weight though, so don’t do what I do if you are a sushi fan.

Can’t wait for the movie!

I cannot wait for the Sex and The City movie to come out! I don’t care about the story, I just want to see the fashion. The ladies look fab in their vintage inspired dresses. Too bad Samantha isn’t in the shot. SJP’s little orange clutch is so cute. And how gorgeous is her green dress and jacket ensemble?

Always nice to look at

I’d like to “Happy Monday” to you, but we know Monday sucks! So to wane off some Monday blues, let’s look at something gorgeous — David Beckham for the New Motorola Razr 2. Niiiice.

Desperate Housewives new promo shot

The cast of Desperate Housewives have unveiled a red hot new look to promote the show’s fourth season. They got airbrushed the hell out of. I can’t say I’m excited about the new season. I almost gave it up last season but I stuck it out. I will most likely keep watching it. I’m skeptical nevertheless.

(Garden varitey housewives: the cast’s first ever promotional shot is rather dowdy in comparison to their new look)

Dancing With the Stars new season

If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, you know I was a big fan of the show. Even though ABC hasn’t made the official announcement about who will be competing in the next season, the official list of contestants have been leaked onto the Internet. The athletes and pop stars will fare the best I’m sure. I’m very curious to see how Gisele dances. It seems that being able to strut down the runway oozing sex appeal doesn’t necessarily translate into good dancing skills. Who are you rooting for? I know I do Not want to see Tori Spelling win :p

Aaron Carter
Gisele Bundchen
Wayne Newton
Mark Cuban
Dr. Quinn
Mel B. (will be participating but not dancing)
Tori Spelling
Jennie Garth
Floyd Mayweather, Jr
Lou Ferrigno
Nia Peeples
Richard Quest
Helio Castroneves
Sabrina Bryan

Celebrity style on the cheaps

Seen a celebrity who’s wearing something that you quite liked? I saw in the mags Katharine McPhee in the colorful lollipop swirly dress and Halle Berry in this simple shift. I found the dresses on sale at Tobi!

Katharine’s shorter hem version is cuter though.

Oh the drama

(This is probably the last time Lauren and Heidi will pose together for pics.)

Did you guys all watch the Hills season premiere this Monday night? I had to miss it, but thank God for the Internet, I managed to download episode one and two. It was the show’s highest rated season opener yet, making it the highest rated cable program of the night in the 12-34 demographic. Lauren Conrad and Heidi Montag squared off at Los Angeles club Les Deux, with LC calling her former BFF “a sad pathetic person.” Heidi is dumb. And Spencer is just so gross. And what’s up with Audrina’s ex-boyfriend. Weeeeird. Do you love the show as much as I do? It’s funny that for somebody who rarely watches reality TV, I’m totally into this one.
