craptastic TV

you didn’t think it could get any worse, did you? crappy reality TV is (unfortunately) on the rise – and this next adventure will surely get all of our eyes rolling. abc is set to unveil their latest disaster, ‘conveyor belt of love,’ on january 4th.

if you like standing at the baggage carousel waiting for your luggage at the airport, then you’ll love this one. 30 men are ushered by on this “conveyor belt of love” and have 60-seconds to impress a panel of 5 ladies. if a woman is interested in one of the men rolling by, he steps aside. the woman then has the option of swapping out her first choice if a more appealing man pops up down the line.

but this is the best part – after all 30 men have been looked over, each woman takes her final choice on a date in the hopes of finding a true connection. yeah, because a 60-second speech really give a true peep into your soul. the show will be run as a special with the opportunity for more episodes down the line. watch the trailer below!

ask ashley

no, she won’t go away. especially not now! shamed new york governor eliot spitzer had a little run-around with call girl ashley dupre. and now the little lady thinks she’s got wisdom to share.

when the press uncovered tiger woods’ 14 (gasp!) mistresses, dupre opened her mouth with “advice” for the young women caught up in the scandal. well it appears that the new york post was listening, because they gone and hired her as an advice columnist! for reals. check out this extremely painful-to-watch promo video for her new gig.

ask her ANYthing, she says. she’ll be the inspiration for home-wreckers, mistresses, and hookers everywhere!

no, pam no

pam-anderson-reality-blog

the always-classy pamela anderson is venturing into the music world. yes, you heard me right. after carving a niche for herself in the glamour world, pammie decided to go after fame one more time.

the lady with large assets will launch her pop career with her debut single, high. according to her friend richie rich, the album is “not about drugs, but about high fashion.”

riiiight, because she knows so much about that!

richie goes on to say “we are recording a pop single together. pam says she wants to sing, but nothing too difficult, so she’s just going to sing the word ‘high’ over and over.” sounds like a winner!

move over, ‘glee!’

glee-cast

sometimes tv execs make some interesting decisions. cult-hit tv show ‘glee’ has taken audiences by storm… one song at a time. and while i don’t particularly enjoy the musically-dominated show, it’s no secret that most people want ‘glee’ to stay. but what does fox do? they put the show on hiatus… for 5 months!

making way for the ratings-giant ‘american idol,’ fox is wrapping up ‘glee’s’ fall run on december 9th. then – get this – doesn’t come back until april 13, 2010! a very risky decision, if you ask me. since the show is still so new, they could lose some fans by making them wait to see more of it. i suppose time will tell if this will effect ‘glee’s’ fan base.

pre-’sex and the city’!

satcbook__oPt

‘sex and the city’… we see carrie as a young adult, working in new york city with her best friends and lots and lots of boyfriends. but what was she like as a teenager? well, we might now have our answer!

‘sex and the city’ author candace bushnell is set to publish a book entitled ‘the carrie diaries’ that will chronicle the fashionista’s life before the cameras started rolling. we’ll see carrie in high-school, dealing with all the perils of the teenage days – mother issues, first loves, friends and enemies galore! the book will also address how carrie became a writer.

‘the carrie diaries’ will hit shelves april 27, 2010 – conveniently close to the ‘sex and the city 2′ movie premiere in may! should be a good month for the die-hards.

yes please

ryan_reynolds_profilefinally! a reason to blog about ryan reynolds. i may or may not have a massive celeb crush on him. but besides all that, i’m happy to report that he and anna faris are reuniting in a new comedy! these two, who were hysterically matched in ‘just friends,’ will star together in a movie all about the good & bad of honesty in a relationship.

sometimes too much information can be a bad thing, the movie seeks to show us. entitled ‘tmi,’ ryan and anna will star as the leads in the universal pictures-developed film. after a few box office duds, universal is trying its hand with this sure-fire duo to prove the studio still has it in ‘em. with ryan on board, chances are it will be a good one. we want them to make a film that we enjoy as much as we enjoy going out with our friends or playing popular bingo games or going on a great date. we want it to be so good we’ll watch it time and time again and be able to get a great ryan fix each time.

i think i speak for all of us when i say, hurry up, universal! we want to see this movie and SOON.

dumb & dumber

this’ll just make your day. or make you cringe. either way, it’s another noteworthy idea from mr. jimmy kimmel himself. why not take the world’s most ignorant beauty queen and have her answer life’s most challenging queries? of course you remember miss south carolina and her trouble with “some people who don’t have maps.” well, jimmy found her, and sent her to find out where babies come from.

enter octomom, nadya suleman. the famous mother of octuplets makes a guest appearance to give us some insight into the art of baby-making (the in-vitro kind, of course). aaaand, the blind leads the blind! check out the wannabe celebs below.

next stop, space!

LIFE-US-SPACE-HOTEL

pretty soon “visit space” could be knocked off a lucky few of your bucket lists! a barcelona-based architect company has begun production on the ‘galactic suite space resort’, a multi-billion dollar hotel that will actually orbit the earth. the price tag for this interstellar experience? a cool $4.4 million will cover your three-night stay and eight-week training course. riiiight, let me just pull out my wallet!

the hotel’s ceo xavier claramunt forecasts that space travel will become “common” in the future. “it’s very normal to think that your children, possibly within 15 years, could spend a weekend in space.” guests will be able to visit the final frontier as early as 2012, but can put in reservations now. and 43 people have already done so!

after a day and a half of travel, guests will settle into their velcro suits and pod rooms. the velcro, of course, so they can “crawl around by sticking themselves to the walls like spiderman.” fascinating! they’ll also be able to peer out their windows to see over 15 sunrises a day. i bet it will be just plain incredible. maybe one day they’ll lower the price?! pretty please?

a personal post

you’ll have to excuse my personal post, but i feel the need to explain just where the heck i’ve been! i took a little break from my blogging to, well, do a lot of things. it’s been a busy summer’s end. let’s see…

i’ve been to st. louis, san diego (twice), san francisco, chicago, napa valley, palm springs and my first trip out of the country, japan. i moved into a townhouse, got a fabulous new job and found purpose in my career path. what else? i learned how to snowboard, surf and golf (200 yd drive, pretty darn good!). i went to sea world, disneyland, ran a 5k mud-run, bet on horses in del mar, cheered on the angels at a playoff game and went to the beach countless times (newport, huntington, san clemente, santa barbara).

so anyway, this is a post to my readers (are you out there?) to let you know i’m back. and will be blogging on a regular basis again. happy reading!

one foxy host

sure she’s gorrrrgeous, but can she be funny? megan fox of ‘transformer’s fame is headlining ’saturday night live’s’ season 35th premiere tonight as the sketch show’s host.  she & cast member andy samberg put together a series of web promos for the big show – check them out above.

based on the promos, i’d be surprised if every skit didn’t focus on her good looks. let’s face it – the girl ain’t famous for her acting. her latest flick, ‘jennifer’s body,’ bombed big time at the box office. but the ‘snl’ cast is known for being able to carry guest hosts along – anyone recall the michael phelps episode?! – so i’m sure meggy will be just fine.

although, i gotta admit, she’s a fairly awkward person. the lady appeared on the jimmy fallon show this past thursday to discuss her upcoming ‘snl’ debut, and things got kinda strange. apparently she’s scared of touching paper? in any case, tonight’s the big night. megan will bring her crazy to nyc and we’ll see if she gets our laughs. also starring with megan will be musical guest u2. go big or go home, megs!
