peace out, 2010!

It's that time of the year again... where I get to take a 2 week vacation from blogging because I said so. [Considering I haven't gotten my shopping done and I have to travel this year, I think this is necessary.]

BUT, before I disappear [not completely, I'll be tweeting and facebooking everything interesting, duh. I can't stay away 100%], I have to give you your Christmas card! [I got this designed just for me thanks to Art2Art Designs! AMAZING!]


And, I should point out that I wrote up my top 10 moments of 2010 over on EB IRL.


Thank you all for making so much of this possible. I mean it when I say I love ya! ;)

Have a very happy holiday!

love,
elizabethany

watch: lonely island and akon- i just had sex

It's only right that the Lonely Island boys come back with an epic song right before Christmas. This time, Akon is joining them. [And Blake Lively and Jessica Alba join them in bed!]



SO good. And it seems as though they got a little inspiration from Katy Perry.

Bravo, boys... Bravo. And thank you.

i spy: a whole lotta woman

I said I had the ultimate I Spy coming up, and I wasn't lying. Now I shall give it to you as an early Christmas present. You're welcome.

At the "rap" concert I went to the other week, I spotted this uber confident woman walking into the bar like what she was wearing and how she looked was something everyone say every day.

She was wrong. This was in fact something new for me.


Oh yes, that is in fact a lime green, mesh, full body suit. Yes, her nipple was beginning to slide out from her bra. Yes her ciggies are inside the suit close to her bosom. And yes, this is a normal bar in College Station.

Here's another view for ya:


Ohhh, yeah... That's a bare ass, only covered by a green mesh body suit. Mm mm MM, GURL!

Like I said, she walked in with the confidence of Pam Anderson on a Playboy cover... And so did her friend. If you look closely, you'll see they thought it was twin night at the club. The twin chose pink.



I know what you're thinking: "EB, you can't post this. She's going to find you and do scary things." Well, maybe... But she saw me and plenty others taking pictures and videos and didn't do a thing about it. Plus- if someone's going to have the nerve to wear such a thing in front of me when I have my camera, there's nothing I can do about it. I've given plenty warnings.

Like I said, you're welcome for sharing this beautiful piece of work. [Now come protect me, kthanks.]

watch: hilarious translation of freestyle battle

Like I said yesterday, I've been in need of a few laughs from around the Internet that I may have missed, and luckily Katelynn shared this gem with me.

You know how freestyle battles work. You've seen 8 Mile. You've listened to hip hop.

Now watch the gentleman's translation of said rap battle:



Like I said, I know this is something that's been around for a while but if I haven't seen it, you may not have either.

And you're welcome... Because there will never be a more perfect translation of rap battles.

watch: fast five movie trailer [fast and the furious installment]

I normally hate all movies that end up outstaying their welcome, but there's something that the Fast and the Furious movies that keeps me intrigued.

Can you believe they're on their 5th installment?!

Check out the official trailer for "Fast Five," which will be out in IMAX April 29, 2011.



Okay, I know what keeps me intrigued- the hella hott cast! Deezang. They haven't lost it at all.

Vin Diesel says this is the most action packed of them all, but I'm sure he has to say that. I guess we'll have to see how good the movie is when it comes out because let's be honest- Half of us were lost after 2Fast 2Furious.

What are your thoughts? Excited? Over it? Think the IMAX could add an awesome touch? [I sure do.]

holiday pick-up lines to try on the ladies

Little known fact: Cheesy pick-up lines will actually work on cool girls. They'll break the ice, and make a girl laugh as long as she has a sense of humor.

An obvious fact: the holiday season rocks, in every way shape or form.

So fellas, if you're looking to pick up a lady to make you not-so-lonely this season, send her one of these, or even deliver them via your own voice. I promise they'll work.

Ladies- enjoy.










I don't care what you say, those are GENIUS. And made by the EB team especially for you! ;-P

watch: little girl freaks out because she can't sing

I've been in need of some hilarious videos this week, so I asked everyone to leave me some things to check out.

I'm sure I'll end up posting a lot of them, but this is the first one that really made me laugh.

Homegirl just wants to sing like Whitney Houston... and when she can't, she's not happy. [Beware: I wouldn't play this at work with the speakers up loud.]



Hilarious comment from YouTube:
"So this is what Rosie O'Donnell's childhood was like.

Poor girl. I hope she try-tries again.. For our sake.

real world las vegas update: meet leroy and heather

It's been a while since I've been able to update you on the upcoming season of Real World: Back in Las Vegas. I have 2 more roommates to introduce you to [which only leaves one "mystery"] and a few fun little spoilers.

Meet Leroy Garrett and Heather Cooke:


Leroy is from Romulus, Michigan, and apparently "loves to party, have fun, and most of all hook up with chicks." People are saying he moved to Dallas recently, so if any of my Texans recognize him, you know what to do. By the looks of his pics, I'd say he's going to be a huge dbag.. but "ya can't judge a book by its cover." ...Yea, whatever.

Heather is the replacement for Adam who got kicked out after 4 weeks of filming [and yes, is the second Heather in the house.] She turns 22 on Christmas day, half Filipino, half white, and is from California, MD! Another DMV local! She went to Leonardtown High and played soccer for Layola Maryland. Apparently she was working in DC as a junior program analyst for Amelex before heading out to Sin City! DMV REPRESENT!


As for what's been goin' on:
  • The cast got to go on vacation this season! They went back to Cancun.
  • Adam returned to Vegas [probably for pictures, but maybe something else too]
  • Adam is on Twitter, but won't tell you a thing.
  • Filming is probably going to wrap up sometime this week or early next week
  • "Nani" is still missing. If you know anything about this chic, or anyone for that matter, feel free to email me.


Now we'll sit back and relax and just wait for the show to air. Hopefully it won't be too long of a wait since Cut Throat is coming to an end.

holiday tunes on tuesday 121410


I told you last week that most of the new music coming out is Christmas music, so I think it's time we enjoy the season and experience it together.

I grew up with all the classic carols, so now I like it when my favorite artists sing their own versions, or even make their own. And that's what this is. Enjoy!


Coldplay--> Christmas Lights



Didn't know it was legal to make a depressing Christmas song, but Coldplay pulled it off. I like to stay away from depressing songs...


The Killers--> Boots



I lied. The Killers also wanted to make a depressing-feeling Christmas song, too. Fabulous. [Maybe the lyrics aren't so depressing, but the feel of the song certainly is.]


Train--> Shake Up Christmas



Yes, this is the song for the Coke commercials... I still enjoy it as a song, though. Even if Train has been haunting us in all of pop culture this year.


Matisyahu--> Miracle



Here's a Chanukah song for all my Jewish readers! Everyone's raving about it. You have to go about 1:45 in to get to the song part, and it's got a good beat.


Katharine McPhee--> Christmas Is the Time to Say I Love You



Probably my favorite new one I've heard so far. I like Katharine. It's a shame she hasn't done better in the mainstream radio world.


Kristinia Debarge--> Do You Hear What I Hear



I also fully enjoy Kristinia Debarge. This is a really pretty rendition of the classic song.


Mariah Carey--> Oh Santa



Everyone wants this to be as big as her classic "All I Want For Christmas" song. I don't think that's possible. For anyone, really. It is a good Christmas song, though. Her Christmas special on ABC last night- weird.


Rihanna--> A New Child Is Born



Ooh, she put her Barbados touch on this song! It's fun! I totally dig it. It's different and it's not your typical Christmas song, but that's what's refreshing.


That's all for now! Enjoy the smiles!

elizabethany

watch my first parody: 98 degrees "this gift"

I've been coming up with parody ideas for a LONG time. I'll admit: They're not my strong suit, but I was pretty excited for this one.

After a TON of obstacles to work through, I finally got to film this video.

Normally the song is all about an upcoming proposal, but we decided to show the stereotypical men/women. It may be a bit much, and definitely more awkward than any other Christmas music video, but that's why it's great.

All I'll say is: The kicker is at the end... So stay tuned.



Teeheehee.

I gotta give HUGE credit to my singers that really came through for me [cuz OBVIOUSLY I can't sing]: Sam Houston and Brittany Durapau! They're the bomb diggity.

And thanks to my last minute co-star Jason!

Feel free to tell me it sucks, but if you didn't laugh or feel awkward at least once, you're lame.

Happy Holidays and merry gift exchanging! ;)

love,
elizabethany

PS: Make sure you catch all the Slutty Cat cameos on the video. She was being a camera whore, and I realized I had to just embrace it.

nifty gift idea: unsual flavors of alcohol

A lot of people may be really freaking out at this point trying to figure out what to get a new friend, coworker, or someone not extremely close.

Do you know what they like to eat or drink? That's easy to figure out! Then, you could always match it up with some flavored alcohol!

There are a TON of flavors I've never heard of. Did you know they have root beer flavored liqueur? Jalapeno flavored vodka?! Coconut tequila! There's even salmon flavored vodka!

Who knows if any of these are really delicious, but that's not the point. It's one of those unusual gifts that someone isn't going to think of and will be totally excited to try. Plus, they'll appreciate the effort you put in to finding something different. [You're welcome.]


It's really not that expensive, either! You can get Me Oko Jalapeno Vodka [and also give these recipes] or a handle of root beer Smirnoff Vodka, both about $20! What a DEAL!

My favorite has always been the cheapo Burnetts vodka, in cherry or fruit punch flavor, and I promise it's delicious and under $10.

If you know of any crazy flavors, please share!

love,
elizabethany

cute of the week: baby seals

Ever since my "happy seals" post, seals have been rapidly climbing up my list of favorite animals.

Now, after finding 101 pictures of lil baby seal pups, I'm sold. They're in my top 3. Check out these preshies.

















If they don't make you want to go out into the ocean and murder every single shark that is out hunting them, you're not normal. You should see a doctor.

Shall we all say it together in unison?! "AWWWWW!!!"

exclusive interview: christina milian and ashley benson of "christmas cupid"


I noticed that there are no Christmas movies in the theater this year and it has honestly saddened me quite a bit. Luckily we can count on ABC Family to deliver some goodies straight to our TV sets.

This Sunday "Christmas Cupid" is premiering! It's just like every other "Christmas Carol" type movie with a twist... Except that it deals with an extremely attractive cast.

I got to talk to the two female costars Ashley Benson [Pretty Little Liars] and Christina Milian [singer and Love Don't Cost A Thing/other things].

We talked about everything from the fact that every "Sloane" on TV is perfect, to their amazing costars, to the 90's and their upcoming album with Vanilla Ice. [WHAT?!]

"He's a cutie pie. He's really tall and really handsome and everything about him is just really cool... It was easy to flirt with him, let's just say."
-Christina Milian on costar boyfriend Chad Michael Murray

"We're actually working on an album together that's going to have to do with the whole 90s thing, and Vanilla Ice is going to be on it."
-Ashley Benson




They totally remind me of two besties in high school or college! Very fun.

I definitely think there might be a bit of a connection there with Christina/Chad. I know Chad is supposedly with/engaged/married to Kenzie Dalton, but I'm not buying it. If nothing else, Christina definitely felt a flutter when she was with him in the movie.

Be sure to watch the movie this Sunday night at 8pm/7c on ABC Family!
