random articles of the day

The Wall Street Journal put out an article claiming that where you live, does indeed affect your attitude/personality. (Is this a no-duh moment?)

No really, researchers have apparently proven it.

Virginians are said to be "open to new ideas."
West Virginians are high-anxiety..

Not all of the states are on there, but it's still kind of interesting.. so check it out if you want. :)




Do you think you know every acronym or abbreve for texting?

I bet you ten dollars you don't.

Proof here.

Yea, a dictionary of texting/email lingo, acronyms and abbreviations. Holy moly. Someone's got some time on their hands.. and it's not me. (OK, not THAT much time anyways.)

Enjoy! :)

back out in the world

Good news, guys. DJ AM was seen out yesterday.

The sad part is that it was because he was paying respects to Chris Baker, one of the passengers on the wrecked plane who passed away.

That picture shows AM yesterday. The burns are poking out of his collar. :( It looks rough, but I think it's better than I personally imagined. I heard his face was in bad shape. Maybe that's why he has sunglasses on.

Either way, it's good to see him in recovery mode.

Also-- Paris Hilton told Ryan Seacrest about a text AM had sent her that said "I'm so lucky to be alive."

I don't think he or Travis Barker will ever take a day of life for granted again.

We're still praying for you two, and the other four's families.

love,
elizabethany

PS: Travis was released from the hospital yesterday.

in lieu of making the band tonight..

...A couple of things..

First off, Mr. Sean P. Diddy Combs, is coming out with yet ANOTHER show. (Is it just me or does it feel like every show on tv has to do with one of a few people??)

It's called "StarMaker." Think part American Idol, part Making the Band. It's been said he's looking for one solo artist like AI, but also photo-ops, press interviews, paparazzi and living together.

Wait. That IS Idol... they live together, make commercials, walk the red carpet... hmmm. I guess just more focus on that aspect is what Diddy is going for.

It's set to begin in January, probably on MTV since that's who he is working with, along with Survivor mastermind Mark Burnett.

Does this mean he's giving up on Making the Band and letting down fans like me? Or is he playing the role of Seacrest on Idol, and taking on way too many jobs for one person?


About the actual episode from tonight.. [If you didn't watch, it shouldn't affect your further reading..] I'm sad that the tour is over tv-wise... and I'm super worried this means the season finale is right around the corner.

What I'm even more worried about--> Danity Kane's breakup rumor actually coming true. There's so many reasons to think that it IS true.. but I won't want to admit it. I'll probably become one of those crazy Clay Aiken fans who blogged about how they'll never live their life the same after he came out...... (ok ok, not that serious.)

Diddy, keep your main priority, which I declare the Making the Band Family, on your mind and at the top of your to-do list at all times. Please.

benefitting you billy, bruce and barack fans


Who loves Billy Joel? How abouttt Bruce Springsteen? I know there's at least a couple of you Barack Obama fans out there...

Well, they're teaming up to do a benefit concert! Ok, ok... so obviously Obama isn't performing. Billy and Bruce are going to be performing a concert to benefit Senator Obama!! Can you believe this is the first time they have ever done a concert together?!?!

I'm pretty sure this is going to be a bangin' concert.. and I'd LOVE to go.. but A) It's in NYC. B) It's on Oct. 16th which is TOTALLY a WVU game day... and oh yea.. C) Tickets START at 500$ !!!!! And go up to 10,000$ !!! Woah, that's hefty.

They do say that Mr. Amazing-Speaker himself WILL be there, though...

Again I'm going to give a shout out to Mr. Obama.. Oh hey! Wanna hook me up with a ticket? I'm from VA.. ya know.. one of the "battle states".......... ;)

being put on hold

Hope no one was too excited or looking forward to "Rock of Love Bus with Bret Michaels"...

Turns out one of his crew members fell asleep at the wheel of a production van and crashed... and killed two 19-year-olds. (It happened Friday..)

Bret says "As a father of two, I cannot even imagine what the families must be going through at this time. I will make every attempt to reach out to them to let them know that my heart and prayers are with them during their time of grief” in a statement he released.. yet, sources say he has not yet contacted the families at all.. Yikes.

Cmon Bret.. don't you know when you apologize publicly you're supposed to mean it? And you're supposed to do something to "correct" the issue?

wanna get laid on halloween?


I know everyone is beginning to figure out what they're going to be for Halloween at this point... and maybe even what you're going to do.

I'm assuming that at this point, most people who read this blog are in college, and probably trying to.. "have a good time" on Halloween night.

Lucky you! I found this list, on MetroMix, of the top costumes that are destined to get you laid.

Check it out-->

  • Sassy Disney Characters.. They're reasoning makes no sense to me so I'm going to go with the whole "fairy tale" route. Everyone grew up watching the classic movies and having crushes/fantasies (depending on how out of control you were as a kid..) about the characters. Now.. can their wildest dreams come true?!
  • Sassy Witch... After going to the Halloween store yesterday, plenty of hott young women were getting these costumes. Maybe it has something to do with the classic costume, or maybe it plays on the "Bewitched" fantasy.. either way, it's magic.
  • Anything with a dog also in costume... Especially if you're a guy, definitely bring your dog. And dress him up. The ladies are bound to flock around you.
  • Fro'd Comedian.. Think Will Ferrell, Jonah Hill, Seth Rogen... They're wildly popular right now. Every girl imagines teaming up with one of them for a night they're not used to.
  • Judge.. The thing about this one is.. you wear a robe and.. well, what is under that robe? Anything? Nothing? It's a mystery someone might want to figure out.
That's some of the list they gave. I feel like I could add more, but I'm not sure. Most girls think cowgirls, or anything slutty really.. I'm a firm believer in being different. Leaving something for the imagination. And not buying whatever looks hott on the rack.

Good list overall, but what would you add? Let me know, I'm totally interested.

while i'm on the topic of republicans..

Since I just posted something about McCain.. why not post something else about Palin? They ARE on the same ticket after all right? Like, they come hand-in-hand...

This video shows Mrs. Sarah Palin in the 1984 Miss Alaska Pageant.. Swimsuit Competition.




First of all, I'd like to say she would have never even come close to winning these days. Second, did you hear the "Sarah says that she wants to prepare for a career in television broadcasting by majoring in Telecommunications and Political Science" ???

Sorry guys... sorry if you like her but.. I just don't see the credibility in this lady. I always thought the fact that ALL of the national FOX News ladies were beauty queens in order to start their career.. let alone the possible next VP of our country. They're taught how to answer questions from an even earlier age than politicians.. aka-- deceiving.

But, I'm not saying who to vote for. Simply putting what I find out there. And if you have anything you want me to share about ANYONE.. please send it my way. :)

love,
elizabethany

woopsies

I'm going to go ahead and say McCain wasn't using his brain when he made this quick slip-up...




Yeaaa,that's TOTALLY him saying "horse-shit." WOOPSIES.

Hmmm.. Didn't your mom ever teach you not to cuss.. especially in public.. on national television, Senator McCain?

joining the disney team


Who's the latest star to join the list of actors to lend their voice to a classic Disney movie?

Oprah you say? Yep! Can you believe it? Cuz I can't..

But she will be the mother of the princess of the newest Disney animated movie, "The Princess and the Frog"

The movie (Coming out Christmas of 09) is being talked about as one that will be added to the list of Disney classics that we grew up around and will never forget about. Ron Clements and John Muskar are working together on it.. and in case you didn't know.. they are the creators of "The Little Mermaid" and "Aladdin."

I'm a little hesitant whenever these movies come out, only because I feel like the others will never find their match. Maybe because I'm a big kid now.. but I still consider myself a kid, so I don't know. I also don't think Oprah is very "Disney-like," do you? I mean.. she's a great helped around the world and all.. but... I just don't see her as an animated character... How do you feel about it??

Good luck though, Oprah! I'll definitely be waiting to see it!

elizabethany

trying to get her


Why hurt the girl who just rose back up to the top?

She struggled for a couple years, we all know that, dated the wrong people, and now it's all coming back to haunt her.. right after she won her first 3 VMA's.

Britney's ex-BF and ex-manager, Adnan Ghalib, is saying he has a TWO HOUR LONG sex-tape of the two of them.. and is taking offers from tabloids and other sources to sell it.

"There is such a tape, but I won't discuss prices for hypothetical enquiries. Unless there is a locked-in deal, I will go no further. I am not interested in selling out any other details about Britney,” he told Heat magazine.

Sources close to BritBrit are denying it the whole thing.. and I actually don't know if I believe it either. Although, I wouldn't be surprised. It WAS during her hard times.. she did crazy things. But I just have a feeling he's making this ish up.


In other Britney news [we all know I love it.. and I'm sure you do too! ;)].. She said in an interview with Z100 that she is surprised "Piece of Me" won 3 VMA's because she has done, by far, much better videos.

Can't say that I disagree, girl! But be thankful for what you got and keep doin' your thang! Only 9 weeks til "Circus" comes out!!

love,
elizabethany

she came back again!

Here's another "in case you missed it"...

Tina Fey is back at it again, despite her vows to not come back to "Saturday Night Live," as Sarah Palin...



She's simply amazing at the role. Unbeatable.

My only question is.. how many more times can the ratings talk her into coming back to the show??

elizabethany

he's big headed


This one is for the ladies AND the fellas! :)

And no, it's nothing bad about Chris Brown.. I could never do such a thing.

He's actually coming out with an underwear line.. called "Big Headed" (interesting) for males AND females!!

The main page says "Feeling is believing. Big Headed boxers have a touching feel about them.. Put them on and you'll feel good. Your partner will feel good, and you'll be able to feel your partner feeling good." ..Wowzers!

The whole front page is actually pretty scandalous. And by front page I mean the whole site. They have models VIDEO-MODEL all the undies for you! It's like a crazy new-age technology thing I feel! And every piece has a scandalous slogan thing.

It's pretty sweet! But ohh, you want me to show you? OK.. Check it out ;) [click to make it bigger]-->




1.) One of the pictures on the main page
2.)Satin Boxahs--> Be a knockout in the satin boxahs.
3&4.) Breakaway boxers--> Don't get caught up at the ankles.
5.) Classic thong--> So cute you'll want to show it, so smooth you'll forget it's there.
6.) Peek a boo Sports bra--> Peek-a-boo in Big Headed too!
7.) Safety Collection Boxers, No U-Turn--> Access denied, Please reroute. [<-- written on butt] I think it's cute. Definitely a shocker though. Only problem I have is that he calls them "boxahs" and said "boi shorts".. and that it's a bit expensive. If anyone wants to buy me some, I'd totally be okay with it. If not, Chris, can you please hook it up for a fellow Virginian?! ;) love, elizabethany

slight wardrobe malfunction


Not sure if anyone still watches Survivor anymore... but I can bet that no one caught this while it was happening.

And if you did, more power to ya, cuz the Survivor crew sure didn't.

Check that out.. Marcus's... uh... "thing"... is peeking out of his boxers just trying to get some air time!

Guys, I know you're probably freaked out, yet watching it over and over again. Ladies, he's HOTT! Check him out-->

Now.. how come Janet Jackson gets fined because her boob pops out, even though the nipple is covered, but Survivor doesn't look to be facing any legal action... yet anyways.

Atta boy Marcus.. way to stir up controversy and get Survivor some attention. Will we see more interesting "exposures"??

call it a night, ladies

This is actually a group on Facebook, but it's been getting a lot of news attention in the past week.. so I thought I'd share it with you guys..

It's the "30 Reasons Girls Should Call It a Night".. aka.. if you do this, you're dunzo, hammered, waste-face, effed up! And need to find your way home...

1. You have absolutely no idea where your friends are.
2. You have absolutely no idea where your car is... wait did you bring your car??
3. You've become convinced that dancing with your arms overhead, shaking your ass, and yelling WOO HOO is truly the sexiest dance move EVER.
4. You've suddenly decided you want to kick someone's ass and honestly believe you can do it
5. You start singing 80's songs at the top of your lungs and showing off your dance skills to the car next to you.
6. Your bladder becomes amazingly full every 10 minutes.
7. You sit down and the room and people around you start spinning profusely.
8. Your slurring your words so bad, that nobody can understand what your saying and then when they say what, you can't even remember what you were talking about.
9. You've come up with the brilliant idea that you can create less hassle on your friends by just "sleeping over" at a guy friend's house.
10. You see beers all over a table so you lift each one up until you find one half full and chug it when no one is looking.
11. You talk to stupid skanks you really hate and tell them you really do like them and that ya’ll should be friends.
12. You pass out at the party. And the next morning there is writing all over your face and limbs.
13. You find yourself peeing behind random buildings.
14. You become overly enthusiastic when someone offers you $20 dollars to make out with your friend (when you totally would have done it for free).
15. The man you're flirting with used to be your TA.
16. You've suddenly taken up smoking, and become really good at it.
17. Every conversation starts with a booming, "DON'T take this the WRONG WAY but..."
18. Your make-up is smeared all over your face and somehow you have still managed to make out with 5 different guys. very classy.
19. The urge to take off articles of clothing becomes strangely overwhelming.
20. Your eyes just don't seem to want to stay open on their own, so you keep them half closed and think it looks exotically sexy.
21. You yell at the bartender, because you think he cheated you by giving you lemonade, but that's just because you can no longer taste the vodka.
22. You think you're in bed, but your pillow feels strangely like the bathroom floor.
23. Your hugs begin to resemble wrestling take-down moves.
24. You begin to think you're a really good dancer and anyone within arms reach becomes your new dancing partner.
25. You've taken off your shoes because you believe it's their fault that you're having problems walking.
26. You can't feel your phone vibrating in your pocket and then when you look to see what time it is, you find you have 7 missed calls from someone you
"supposively" met at the last party.
27. One minute you're strutting your stuff, the next minute you're rolling on the ground, and you can't seem to remember the transition.
28. You can no longer feel your face or limbs so you flail your body about to try to regain feeling
29. You call your ex-boyfriend 1,000 times and leave lots of really nice voicemails saying that ya'll need to hang out more.
30. You start hugging strange people and having great converstations with strangers at whataburger.

Everyone has seen the girl that this list is talking about... and I'm sure everyone has been that girl AT LEAST once.. woops. So I guess everyone can relate to it.

Which one is your favorite?? Let me know..

And in the meantime, try not to be "that girl".. ;)

love,
elizabethany

16 of the greatest


Entertainment Weekly put out a list of the 16 best guest voices on "The Simpsons"... ever! Not necessarily stars who played themselves, but those who used their voices as another character.

Here it is: -->

Alec Baldwin
Jack Black
Glenn Close
Dustin Hoffman
Beverly D'Angelo
Harvey Fierstein
Sarah Gilbert
Winona Ryder
Mandy Patinkin
Michelle Pfeiffer
Meryl Streep
John Waters
Lisa Kudrow
Kelsey Grammar/David Hyde Pierce
Marisa Tomei
Ricky Gervais

Now, I don't know that I'm a good critic on this because I haven't kept up with The Simpsons since I was in high school.. like a freshman.. so it's been a while.

But for those of you who practically live in Springfield, what do you think?

EW, you haven't been impressing me lately.. and though I may not remember more than 3/4 of those episodes, I feel like The Simpsons had a lot more A-list stars than those listed above.. but I'll wait to see what others say..

hott mess



Woah lady.

That's Heather Locklear.. for those of you who don't recognize her right away.

And it's her mug shot (obviously) after she was arrested for a DUI 4:30 this morning.

Someone who saw her driving called the cops, who arrested her and brought her in for tests. Apparently, alcohol was ruled out and they think she was just feeling something from prescription meds. Interesting.

She was in rehab not too long ago for depression and anxiety, though.. so maybe that has SOMETHING to do with it, eh?

I hope it all works out! We don't like seeing pictures like this (well, maybe sometimes). And stop driving under the influence of ANYTHING!

elizabethany

back on the big screen

For all of you "Notebook" or "Wedding Crashers" or even "Mean Girls" fans... your favorite lady is heading back to the big screen!!

She's set to star in the new Sherlock Holmes movie!! :)

Robert Downing Jr is her co-star, and Guy Ritchie is the director!!

No exact release date yet.. but filming should begin in about a month!

I feel like this is just one more type of movie she can add to her resume. She's done the girly teen movie, the great comedy, the great, classic love story.. and now.. I don't know.. a teen/classic/remake?? I'm excited to see how it looks once the trailers come out.. :)

Oh and also, she IS still with Ryan Gosling!!! They broke up.. but then got back together when they realized how much they missed each other! :) How precious.

Good luck Rachel! I think you are one of the great, young female actresses with a good head on her shoulders, so I believe in you completely! :)

love,
elizabethany

update: in case you missed it


Redskins: 26
Cowboys: 24


Campbell: 20/31, 231 yards
[STILL no interceptions in over 200 throws!!]
Portis: 121 yards
Moss: 145 yards

Romo: 28/47, 300 yards, 1 interception
[pictured above.. Rookie Horton making third interception of his career!]
Barber: 26 yards
Witten: 90 yards

I must say.. I love that I can have Skins players on my fantasy team, and wonder whether or not they'll even see the ball. I feel like we're really using every player, AND we still have playmakers. I think they're definitely working as a team, and DEFINITELY entering these games with the right mindset. It's something new and different. And Portis is running the ball and getting YARDS! Also something that I feel has not been consistent the past couple seasons. I don't know who to thank for all of it, but I'd like to say that I am pretty comfortable with Mr. Jim Zorn.

So Coach, I hope this continues. You started out better than all of our coaches in.. well about forever.. so you're only on the right track! I'm pumped!!

love,
elizabethany

PS: In case you didn't check yourself, here are the rest of the scores for today's football :)

hollywood has lost a star


Paul Newman died Friday after his long-time battle with cancer. :(

He won TEN Academy Awards in his 6-decade long career.

He ALSO was a professional race car driver..

AND... I know everyone has seen "Newman's Own" dressing etc... yea, that's him.

Everyone in Hollywood and around the world are really mourning his death (obviously..).. here are a couple statements that were issued..

"Sometimes God makes perfect people and Paul Newman was one of them."
--co-star Sally Field

"He set the bar too high for the rest of us. Not just actors, but all of us."
--George Clooney

"Paul was an American icon, philanthropist and champion for children . . . Our prayers and thoughts are with Joanne and the Newman family and the many people who Paul impacted through his endless kindness and generosity."
--Bill and Hilary Clinton

It was just May of last year when he told Good Morning America that he was done with acting... saying "I'm not able to work any more as an actor at the level I would want to. You start to lose your memory, your confidence, your invention. So that's pretty much a closed book for me."

You will certainly be missed, Mr. Newman. But we'll be sure to smile and think of you every time we have a taste of your own dressing or see your movies. :)

we want dallas


I'm sure most of you guys know, but for those of you who don't, I'm a huge Redskins fan. Ya, that's right, HAIL TO THE REDSKINS!!!

And you BETTER know that today is a HUGE game.. vs. DALLAS!!!

So, thanks to Cooley's blog, my brother, and my obsession with the most amazing football team ever invented, I came up with a couple things I want everyone to check out in the next hour in order to get pumped for the game...




Also, The KANE Show debuted this song last week.. a local rapper submitted it into them and they played it for all of us skins fans :) [hint hint: if you're a rapper, and a Redskins fan, or even if you want to pretend to be, make a song and send it to Kane. He'll play it live for you!!!]
Check it out--> It's good.

Sorry Cowgirls fans, but I feel as though your team is slightly overrated, and we're underrated. So here's to a good game.... and the skins coming out on top. Just like the last time. :)

worthy of the win?


David Cook has officially released his first single (besides "Time of My Life," the cheesy yet great single he released as the winner..) this week!

It's called "Lights On".. and honestly, I like it! I think it definitely sounds enough like him, and not like Daughtry, that he could really do something with his title! And I'm pumped about it!!

What do you think?? -->

Light On - David Cook

I'll request it all day long for you, David! Good work, I think! :)

love,
elizabethany

he's back for more

Looks like "Pirates of the Caribbean" is going to be more than just a trilogy!!!

Johnny Depp has officially signed for a FOURTH installation of the series!

I know I said I absolutely hate when movies have a ton of sequels but (even though I have NEVER seen any of them.. I know, I'm terrible..) this series is one of the biggest of all time, so I won't hate.

AND! Johnny is also said to be working on roles in "Lone Ranger," "Dark Shadows" AND "Sin City 3" !!

If you're not what we call a busy guy, Mr. Depp, I don't know who is..

love,
elizabethany

PS--> credit The Insider for the picture.. un-elizabethany'd for once :)

in case you missed the news..


This is Tuesday's news.. but I was talking to someone who hadn't heard.. so I thought I'd post this for all you late bloomers.. :)

Lindsay Lohan= totally, officially, with Samantha Ronson...

AND.. Sam is saying by the end of the year, Lindsay ("her love") will be Mrs. Ronson

...........................

Come onnn LiLo... I know you're happy and in love or whatever... but you could find a WAY hotter lesbo.

IT'S HERE!!!

So, they officially released "Womanizer" by BRITNEY.. TODAY!!

Check it out here-->




Britney Spears Lyrics
Womanizer Lyrics

My opinion is kinda strewed.. being a huge fan and everything.. but I definitely think it could be a hit. I even heard it on HOT 99.5 twice already today!! ;) It totally could have been on her last album though, so I just hope that there's some new stuff on "Circus".. which is coming out December 2. :)

Let me know what you think, though!

Thanks Britney! :)

elizabethany

this needs to stop


Hollywood is doing just what it does.. eh.. "best"...

Making a prequel to a fantastic movie... "I Am Legend"

I mean obviously they couldn't make a sequel. Will Smith can't just come back to life..

But I just feel like sequels/prequels are getting so outdone.. and sometimes they even ruin the credibility of the original.. am I right?!

I mean really.. even the DISNEY classics have been redone.. it's just out of control I feel..

It's time to do NEW things, Hollywood! I mean I know it's hard and "everything's been done".. but I hate to see good movies go to waste, so to speak..

a "wicked" show for josh and the roommates

[This post written on September 25, 2009]


I love when I witness something with the cast that I have no doubt in my mind will be an episode. It's just cool to try and imagine what the episode will be like. The truth is- It's impossible to predict how it will come out.

Anyway, Josh's band, Wicked Liquid, performed at Rock N Roll Hotel with The Politicks and Once, Okay Twice. All of them were pretty freakin' good, and I must admit... Josh totally surprised me- in a good way.

  • Every roommate was in attendance, and it seemed like they all had a guest:
  • Andrew had his girlfriend Andrea with him. As always, they were hugging and kissing on each other all night. It was cute, though... Not obnoxious. It's interesting to see him tied up and not mingling anymore!
  • Adam, AKA "Guest", also showed up again. Ashley [who was wearing a super cute dress that I'm in love with] didn't seem to be too thrilled, but he must have become a friend of everyone in the house because he was interlocked with the gang all night.
  • Kelly Ann Collins was in attendance just as expected. She didn't seem to be only there with Josh.. She seemed like just another roommate or something. I guess she's a regular!
  • Emily was with a blonde girl all night. I'm not sure what the connection is here, whether it's friends or more than that, but they were definitely side by side for most of the night.

There were more people with the housemates, but it's impossible to tell who was with who besides that. It was as if the cast DOUBLED in size overnight!

Cameras were EVERYWHERE! Not that I didn't expect them to be, but woah. I don't have any idea how they didn't get each other in their shots. There was also production crew everywhere, and even my favorite security guard was there!! [He laughs whenever he sees me, it's great. He knows what's up, and he thinks it's funny. He's had to deal with me since day 1- the fake move-in day.]

Once Josh took the stage, the crowd loosened up, made their way toward the stage, and danced to his whole set. They did a lot of cover-songs, but there were a couple originals in the mix, too. Everyone seemed to love every bit of it, especially the cast and friends.

At one point, Josh pulled two girls onto the stage to dance with him for a bit while performing. I have no idea who the first one was. I feel like I've seen her at Rhino or somewhere before, but who knows what that means. The second girl was Andrea, Andrew's girlfriend. She was definitely feelin' the music... And maybe the drinks too.

After everything was over, everyone cleared out pretty quick. On the way out, Ty decided to do a backflip on his own this time. It.. Ummm... Didn't turn out too well, to say the least. He ended up looking like a pancake on his stomach in front of everyone there. It's okay, though- It was funny, and everyone laughed, including him.

Lance helped him get back up, they went outside, and Ty did it again. This time, in the streets, and he landed it! As a gymnast, I can say it was beautiful. Good work, Ty. Good recovery.

At this point, it was only 12:15, but it felt way later. Everyone dispersed and either went back to the house, or over to Rhino for a little bit of an after party before it was time to head home for curfew.

  • So, going back to how I used to do things, here are some lessons learned:
  • It's not "8 strangers picked to live in a house." First of all, one is gone. Second- the number nearly doubles when you consider all of the "cast members" that get added in thanks to relationships.
  • Once you're in with the roommates, no matter if your relationship with one ends or not, you're still okay to hang out with the rest.
  • When you're in a place that's uber public and lots of people are taking pictures, it's really easy to get great pictures and footage, even if the production crew give you the death stare all night. [I'm pretty sure one lady's sole job is to give me a death stare and never stop.]

he's a writer, too!


So, Lil Wayne is doing more than just writing songs..

Now, ESPN is giving him the chance to write a sports blog for their magazine.

Apparently he's a HUGE sports fan.. and doesn't watch or read about anything but sports.. so he talks a little football in the beginning.

Then he goes on to talk about how he used to play fullback growing up... and how he would tackle everyone or run through the piles without them knowing and score a touchdown. Interesting.. the man ALWAYS ends up on top, eh?!

Also interesting--> he's a big fan of... tennis?!? Hm, apparently so.

What I find the most.. eh.. surprising, interesting, whatever you wanna call it, is how he talks. For the most part, minus some stupid grammar errors that we ALL make when we're talking, his writing is great! He's definitely a smart guy.. hmph.

Mr. Carter, I think we can officially say that you are literally EVERYWHERE now that this is out in the sports world.. and I can't wait to read more. :)

PS: Thanks to Bdot for pointing this out on Thoughts of Dots :)

uhhhh...

Question: When you're in a relatively small room with a lot of electronics, and it catches on fire, what do you do??
a) stop, drop, and roll
b) get out as fast as you can
c) a & b
d) stay in there until someone else comes and tries to put it out...

Homeboy below picked d.. decided it'd be best to keep doin his job as a radio DJ and stay on-air, while the room nearly blows up in flames...



Radio Booth Engulfed in Flames - Watch more free videos

Yo, guy, I understand you have a job to do, I understand it's "good radio" to stay on while your studio is about to blow up... but didn't anyone ever tell you YOU COULD DIE?!?

VH1 at it again


Don't even worry, guys..

VH1 is trying to make as many spinoff-spinoff-spinoffs as they possibly can..

How would you feel about "A Real Chance at Love"???

That's right... a "find your true love" show about the infamous VH1 brothers is coming your way soon... maybe even as early as November.

I just have one question--> How many shows can one station have.. that a) has the same characters?? and b) HAS THE WORD LOVE IN IT?!?!

goodness gracious they're wearin me out,
elizabethany

This is bad.. I don't even know what else to say.....

fooled ya!

GOTCHYA!

I know I haven't said much about David Blaine's latest "hang upside down for 60 hours straight" stunt.. but I'm sure most people have kinda heard about it.

Anyways, yea, he said he was going to hang upside down for 60 hours, even though tons of doctors kept saying there was no way he would survive it..

Yea well, he failed to mention that EVERY HOUR he has to come down to bring his head above his heart... and people are not so much happy about it.

He's supposed to end it all tonight on an ABC special.. as he takes a huge fall...

I mean really, David.. how "magical" is it to hang upside down with a bunch of breaks?!?

elizabethany

doin big things


So, Kanye has recently been uttering some quick *nudges* at 50 cent about competing for record sales again...

Thing is, 50 is comin out with his next CD on December 9, just one week before Kanye's debuts..

OH.. and did I add that he's ALSO coming out with a movie the same day?!

Thats right! And they're both going to be titled "Before I Self-Destruct".. BUTTT.. they won't be sharing the same music..

He told Rolling Stone that they will both be about "showing characters under pressure in scenarios where they felt like there were no other options, even though there were." He adds--> "There are always options. People just usually start to see them while being incarcerated - for not seeing them in the first place.”

WOW! This is kinda cool I think.. and will totally help album sales, right?! I just wonder how much it will be like "8 Mile..."

Good luck 50! As much as I like Kanye's music, I'm not so much a fan for the conceited... mmm.. you know what. Can't wait!

love,
elizabethany

OOH! PS!! I JUST saw that Kanye now changed the date of his album to be in November because "it's done so everyone should hear it"
.....ya okay.

somethin incredible

When did YOU learn how to read?!

I'm pretty sure it took me a good amount of time before I was reading "beatle" and "family" out of a magazine...

Check out this FOURTEEN MONTH OLD baby... she can read!! And.. yea... it's legit..



I can't believe it either, but that's TOTALLY proof! Ah.. now parents are going to be even crazier on their kids trying to get them to ready crazy early.

I wanna see what kinda novels you're writing at age 10, little girl. :)

love,
elizabethany

i LOVE it



OMG!! Did you see last night's Making the Band?!

While I will admit that it was super cheesy, Dawn and Que have GOT to be the CUTEST couple EVER!! Oh man, it made me laugh, and made me jealous at the same time!!

Dawn FINALLY dropped the L-bomb on screen.. :)

And that boxers and GOLD sneakers combo! HAHA! I loved every second of it.

I hope ya'll work out cuz it'd be a shame to see the cuteness go to waste! :-P Get married! Just like Que said :)

love,
elizabethany

it's official


Welp, it's official ladies and gents!! Clay Aiken is out of the closet!!

The American Idol Season 2 contestant officially came out via People Magazine saying that he can't live as a liar or someone who keeps secrets now that he is raising a baby...

..yea, in case you forgot, he's a daddy!! [He donated his sperm to a friend.. but they're raising it together!!]

I hope all the claymates aren't tooooo upset!

Congrats, Clay!! I'm sure it feels real good to not have to worry about denying it anymore... seeing as we DID ALLLL know.. :)

dumb, dumb, stupid



What do you think are the stupidest shows to hit TV?!

Entertainment Weekly came out with this list..

  • Hole in the Wall- FOX
  • Hurl- G4
  • Wipeout- ABC
  • I Love Money- VH1
  • The Hills- MTV
  • Under One Roof- MyNetworkTV
  • America's Funniest Home Videos- ABC
  • Pam: Girl On The Loose- E!
  • Secret Talents of the Stars- CBS
  • Moment of Truth- FOX
  • Fear Factor- NBC
  • Temptation Island- FOX
  • Chains of Love- UPN
  • Homeboys in Outer Space- UPN [what?!]
  • Jackass- MTV
  • Cheaters
  • Beavis and Butthead- MTV
  • Man vs. Beast- FOX
  • Titans- NBC
  • The Swan- FOX
Okay, I have some beef with EW now...
The Hills, AFV, Moment of Truth, Fear Factor, Cheaters and Jackass are all fantastic shows!!

OK OK, so they may have silly motives behind them.. making them SEEM stupid.. but they're GREAT! AFV is a CLASSIC!!! So is Beavis and Butthead and Jackass!

I DO, however, agree with Pam's show.. and I Love Money... I know it's funny and entertaining.. but I'm sick of those raunchy characters. At least the Challenges have cool, real people.

Hmmm, I just don't know about this.. I vote a recount!

Jesus is real!

There's always reports across the country of people finding Jesus in different things like chicken nuggets, moths... and now, a ceiling tile.

Washington DC's HOT 99.5's morning show (The KANE Show!) found Jesus in a ceiling tile in the trash can as their studio is being demolished for construction.

I think it's pretty legit. What do you think?!

Congrats, guys! You've been trying to find one for FOREVER, and I give you an A++ on this one! ;)

killin the ladies, not the cowboys

Sorry, ladies... Our beloved #55 Jason Taylor is not going to be playing against the Cowboys this week. :(

Apparently he injured his calf against the Cardinals during the second quarter and thought it was fine.. until it swelled up and doctors said he had to go under emergency medical procedures to repair it.. oh no!

Jim Zorn says he'll definitely be out this week, but beyond that he doesn't know.
He also admits that it's going to hurt the skins, but it leaves opportunities for the next guy.. how nice.

Get better, Jason! Ladies everywhere also need something to drool over on Sundays as their husbands sit in front of the TV all day. ;)

elizabethany

wait a little longer

I'm sure all of you were wondering why Britney's latest single, "Womanizer," which was supposed to be debuted on radio yesterday, has not been heard.

Turns out a station in Nashville got some leak of the song before it was finished, so her record label pushed the date back "at least a week."

Ugh. Thanks Tennessee. Way to eff it up for everyone.

elizabethany

update!


Travis Barker and DJ AM are just lookin forward to the future right now..

The docs are saying they're are both still in critical condition, but stable.. and are expected to make a full recovery.

Their crash, which happened just before midnight on Friday night, left four others, including Travis' assistant, dead. :(


Apparently upon impact they ran out of the burning plane and onto the highway, where they patted eachother down to stop the flames from growing. Travis suffered burns from the waist-down.. DJ AM's face and torso were unfortunately the worst parts for him. :-/

Hurry and get better, guys! Everyone is rootin and prayin for ya!! Hang in there, we'll see you back on stage ASAP! :)

love,
elizabethany

woops


Welp. Guess their plan didn't work out as well as they had hoped..

The 60th Annual Emmy Awards' reality show cohosts are getting an interesting set of reviews..

..none of which, are very great.

Not sure if any of you guys saw it, but the opening was pretty rough. They literally just stood there and talked.. over top of each other.. and none of it was funny..

And all the while, little Vicky's Secret model Heidi Klum looked just as out of place as we thought she might ahead of time.. standing there in silence and confusion.

Apparently, when 5 people get together it's impossible.. that's what Jeff Probst said anyways. Since they couldn't come to an agreement, they just went with nothing... cuz that always seems like a good idea, right?

Entourage's Jeremy Piven even poked fun after winning his award for best supporting actor.. he said he should just stand up there for 12 minutes and talk... but nevermind, that's what the opening was.

The 5 hosts were picked because of their nominations into a brand new category of best host of a reality show. We all know reality is certainly taking over, so it's a great category. Probst ("Survivor") ended up winning. [I personally think he's definitely got a great show and a lot of experience so I'm not mad.. but we all know how much I love me some Seacrest..]

So apparently it needs to be said that reality tv needs to take a step back and stop taking all the jobs from the actors.. but don't kill the messenger.. I didn't say it.

elizabethany
