‘fly girls’ flying high!

make sure your trays are folded up and your seat is back in its upright position because more reality tv is zoomin’ in to your living room. okay, that was obnoxious. but so is this: the CW has greenlit a reality tv show based on the personal lives of five flight attendents working for virgin america. the CW boasts,

fly girls follows [the ladies] as they jet from one glamorous location to the next, including las vegas, south beach and new york city, while purusing good times, great parties, adventure and love.”

i don’t know about you, but the flights i’ve been on have all seemed quite boring. the ladies will also share a “crash-pad” in la la land, california. check out some cast interviews here.

if you ask me, this is just about co-branding. virgin america and the CW are tootin’ each other’s horns all over the place. smart move, actually. the CW says their partners at virgin are offering the “hip, sophisticated vibe” that today’s travelers are looking for.  and virgin hits back that the CW is helping to bring the “style and fun back to flying.” alright, whatever you say guys! fly girls premieres on march 24th.

pre-’sex and the city’!

‘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.
