MUSIC VIDEO OF THE WEEK.

Love it!

DANITY KANE ARE OVER, ACCORDING TO A BAND MEMBER.

Yikes! The not so good girl band, Danity Kane is over, according to Dawn Richard. "As of right now, [Danity Kane doesn't exist]," Dawn Richard told MTV News on Wednesday (January 28). "It's devastating for me." The band seemed to have trouble to begin with! Maybe that's what Diddy wanted -- it makes for some good press and TV shows.

You can read more about what Dawn had to say, here.

Check out the video above to watch Ashton Kutcher rant and rave about his neighbor doing home construction at 7:00am -- which is apparently too early for the diva! In the video he has anything but nice words to say about his neighbor, and claims he's shooting the video for "legal" purposes. LOL !

ASHLEE SIMPSON DEFENDS JESSICA'S WEIGHT GAIN.

We've all noticed Jessica Simpson's weight gain lately, and her younger sister Ashlee is pretty pissed off about all the buzz. I personally think it was nice of Ashlee to defend sister Jessica, and now she too can get some publicity. Maybe it's easy for her to say, seeing as she's the skinny sister!!

Ashlee blogs:
I am completely disgusted by the headlines concerning my sister's weight. A week after the inauguration and with such a feeling of hope in the air for our country, I find it completely embarrassing and belittling to all women to read about a woman's weight or figure as a headline on Fox News.

All women come in different shapes, sizes, and forms and just because you're a celebrity, there shouldn't be a different standard.

Is this something you would say to your wife, daughter, mother, grandmother, or even a friend?

I seriously doubt it.

How can we expect teenage girls to love and respect themselves in an environment where we criticize a size 2 figure?

Now can we focus on the things that really matter.

-Ash
Is Ashlee right or should she shut up?? What do U think?

JONAS BROTHER'S NEW MUSIC VIDEO.


This is for all you Jonas Brothers fans! Click here to see the Jonas Brother's new music video to their hit song Tonight. What do U think?? I'm not a fan of the Jonas Brothers at all, but the music video is decent. Yet the song seems entirely too whiny for me!

JESSICA ALBA BLOGS.


Ha! Jessica Alba just updated her blog today to talk about the Inauguration and of course her whole feud with Billy O'Reilly. She seems to be a little upset about Billy O'Reilly and his claims of making her appear "stupid,"  so do U think she's wrong and doesn't want to admit it???

She wrote:
Hey Guys,

Jay_eh here. I wanted to share with everyone in the ibeatyou and MySpace communities my experiences at the inauguration last week, so I put together a little video.

Before I get to the video, I want to clear some things up that have been bothering me lately. I find it depressing that in the midst of perhaps the most salient time in our country's history, individuals are taking it upon themselves to encourage negativity and stupidity. Last week, Mr. Bill O'Reilly and some really classy sites (i.e.TMZ) insinuated I was dumb by claiming Sweden was a neutral country. I appreciate the fact that he is a news anchor and that gossip sites are inundated with intelligent reporting, but seriously people...it's so sad to me that you think the only neutral country during WWII was Switzerland. Check out: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweden_during_World_War_II if you want to see what I was referring to. I appreciate the name calling and the accurate reporting. Keep it up!!

Now on to more important things...like our new President.

Best,

IS THE OBAMA FAMILY GETTING SPECIAL TREATMENT???

HMMM!! Seems like the Obama family really has gotten special treatment, compared to past presidents. I understand that America is very excited to have the first half-black president, but do they really need all this unnecessary attention??

I mean really who has cared before what the president's wife fashion is like?? And the kids are apparently trend setters for carrying around dolls that have been around for years?? I think it's a little too much to be honest.  Now don't get me wrong, I'm excited for a new president whether I like him or not... and his kids are absolutely adorable but sometimes too much is too much.

America, don't get too excited until drastic, promised change has actually taken place.

CHRIS CROCKER WANTS TO BE MILEY'S MOM???


Ugggh. One of the most annoying people on the internet -- Chris Crocker! Chris apparently ran out of things to do after having his 15 minutes of fame, so in a new video he talks completely about Miley Cyrus, and even says he should be Miley's step-mom. Gross!

Click here to watch the video -- if your ears can stand it.

TAYLOR SWIFT TEEN VOGUE COVER.

Taylor Swift is looking naturally gorgeous on the new cover of Teen Vogue.  Check out samples from Taylor's interview with Teen Vogue below. Enjoy!

Teen Vogue: You grew up in a town called Wyomissing, Pennsylvania, listening to the Dixie Chicks and Shania Twain. When—and why—did you first come to Nashville?
Taylor Swift: Well, I started begging my mom to bring me here after I saw a TV special on Faith Hill—she came to Nashville, and that's how she made it. So for spring break we rented a car and drove up and down Music Row, handing my homemade demo CD to the receptionists at all the labels. I'd say, "Hey, I'm eleven, and I want a record deal. Call me."

TV: Was country music popular in your hometown?
TS: Not at all. The kids at school thought it was weird that I liked country—they'd make fun of me. Junior high was actually sort of hard, because I got dumped by this group of popular girls. They didn't think I was cool or pretty enough, so they stopped talking to me.


TV: You're playing yourself in the Hannah Montana movie. Are you interested in acting?
TS: Only if it was a show that I loved, like CSI or Grey's Anatomy, or if it was a really cool script. But I'm not feeling this desperate urge.

HAYDEN PANETTIERE UNDERAGE DRINKING???

19 year old Hayden Panettiere apparently had her license taken away at NV, a nightclub, and according to JustJared, she slipped in through a private side entrance to meet up with friends. The owner of the nightclub tells Inside Edition that Hayden approached the main bar and attempted to order a drink.

The bartender then asked for ID, and when it was noticed she was under 21 -- took the ID away. Shortly after, Hayden and her friends were escorted out of the club. A very frustrated Hayden, then took it upon herself to call the police. Read her 911 call, below!

911 Operator: “What’s your name?”
Pannettiere: “Hayden…I went into a bar and I showed them my ID. They let me in and um…he took my ID and he won’t give it back.”
911 Operator: “What bar is it?”
Pannettiere: “NV.
911 Operator: “NV?”
Pannettiere: “Yeah!
911 Operator: “Ok, and he took your ID and they’re not going to give it back to you?”
Pannettiere: “Yeah, and I need to get on a plane in a couple of days and I really need my ID back…I live in California.
911 Operator: “Ok, we have officers on the way.”
Pannettiere: “Thank you very much.

Wow! I hope it isn't true that she tried to underage drink, and then even more stupid -- she calls 911 to get her ID back.  Celebrities need to use their noggins more often, I think.

LEONA LEWIS NEW MUSIC VIDEO. "I WILL BE"


Check out Leona Lewis in her new music video to the song I Will Be, which features pretty boy Chace Crawford in it!! I've gotta say I'm a fan of both the music video and the song this time.

HILARY DUFF'S NEW MOVIE, "SAFETY GLASS"

Hmm?? Hilary Duff's latest movie, Safety Glass is set to come out sometime soon -- but will it be worth seeing??? The movie seems like another flop, unfortunately.

Plot: Set in the mid-80's when a reporter is sent to cover the Challenger Space Shuttle launch only to become mixed up in the lives of some local students.
Eh. Would U watch it?

VINTAGE KRISTEN STEWART.

LOL! No this isn't a boy you're looking at! Pictured above, and below is Twilight star Kristen Stewart when she was younger.  She's quite the looker now, but as you can tell she definitely went through some awkward stages. On a side note: Kristen, please never cut your hair short again. Thanks!

NEW FOOTAGE FROM HUDSON RIVER CRASH.


Check it out above! The video features new footage of moments after the recent plane crash into the Hudson river. I'm still so amazed that the pilot was able to save more than a hundred lives, including his own with his smart thinking.

What a way to bring in 2009! I really hope the guy got a raise.

PINK'S NEW MUSIC VIDEO, "PLEASE DON'T LEAVE ME".

AUDRINA PATRIDGE'S DIVINE RIGHTS OF DENIM AD.

Check it out! PEOPLE has released this exclusive look at Audrina Patridge's (from The Hills) Divine Rights of Denim ad. I am amazed by how much this ad doesn't look anything like her, not even a little bit. Audrina will be the new face of Divine Rights of Denim for Spring / Summer 2009 ads. No, Audrina doesn't have her own line of clothing -- but she did help style this one!

Check out Divine Rights of Denim's online store. Celebrities such as Jessica Alba, and Lauren Conrad have been spotted wearing the label, and it's affordable to people like you and me!
What do U think?? Is this ad HOT or NOT?

MARIANA BRIDI DA COSTA, A BRAZILIAN MISS WORLD CONTESTANT LOSES HANDS & FEET.


Mariana Bridi da Costa, a 20 year old model who was in the Miss World contest, representing Brazil has had her hands and feet amputated after catching a severe urinary infection, Australian News reports. Bridi was diagnosed with a infection by the Pseudomonas aeruginosa bacteria, which is often deadly. She was apparently misdiagnosed with kidney stones.

 What??? How could they miss such a thing? The infection reportedly spread quickly which resulted in her going back to hospital for tests that revealed her actual condition. Surgeons had to act to remove her damaged hands and feet, because they were cutting off circulation. I guess everyone is human and make mistakes -- but this mistake may prove fatal!

Poor girl, I hope she successfully recovers.

Ekaterina Rubleva, a Russian Figure Skater had a little wardrobe problem -- apparently her top didn't want to stay on!

KEITH URBAN - SWEET THING.

Sweet Thing


I'm a fan! Check out a newer music video by country singer Keith Urban called Sweet Thing. It's actually a decent song / music video ;-). Even if you're not a fan of country -- give it a listen. Ms. Taylor Swift has definitely made country music 'cool' and made a lot of close-minded people loosen up a little bit.

ANOTHER TRAGEDY AT VA TECH.

Sad! After the tragic shootings which took place at Virginia Tech back in 2007, people were hoping that no more violence would occur.  They were wrong! A 22 year old female graduate student Xin Yang was decapitated on campus, with a kitchen knife.

Yahoo reports that the victim and her accused attacker, 25-year-old Haiyang Zhu, knew each other but the motive is currently unknown. My condolences go out to the family who lost their daughter, these types of tragedies are always hard to accept.

COAT OF THE DAY.


This purple Frill Front Tulip Coat is absolutely adorable! Purple is definitely a color to look out for this Spring / Summer 2009. Obviously purple is the perfect color for this coat, I really can't see any other color working this good.  The coat has an above average price of $160, but it's something worth your money. Would U wear it???

JODIE SWEETIN HAS COCAINE RELAPSE.

The former Full House star, Jodie Sweetin can't seem to stay away from drugs! While she claims to be completely sober, others are saying something else. According to a co-worker on the set of her new movie Port City, Jodie Sweetin has been using drugs yet again, Radar reports.

"I watched Jodie Sweetin snort cocaine," said the eyewitness who was quoted in this week's National Enquirer.  The eyewitness, who reportedly passed a lie detector test, is claiming that she saw Sweetin abuse cocaine in a trailer in late August along with her co-workers.

Yikes!! This news actually is quite disappointing, as a big fan of Full House and of Jodie herself, I really hoped things would turn out for the best. But, it looks like she's beyond addicted, poor girl!

Uh oh! Miley Cyrus, and Justin Gaston who are apparently all about church -- can't seem to help themselves.  They were apparently sending several text messages back and forth during services in California.

"They thought they could fool people, but Miley couldn't stop giggling," an insider tells Star. Isn't texting during church services and listening to Miley giggle a little immature for 20 year old Justin??????? Maybe not!

NICK NOLTE CAPITAL ONE CARD, HA!


As you know, you can customize your Capital One cards now, well David Mackie did just that! He customized his Capital One card by submitting a rough picture of Nick Nolte in his September 2002 mug shot. Once Capital One took notice to the fraud, they immediately got in contact with David and informed him that the card was being deactivated until he submitted a different picture.

Capital One offered Mackie a $50 customer goodwill statement credit for the cards return.  Mackie did return the card on Tuesday.  A little bizarre, but pretty funny at the same time.

FIRST PICTURE OF BOY GEORGE IN JAIL.

This is the first picture released of Boy George in prison, apparently writing on a pad of paper. Boy George is currently sentenced to 15 months in jail, because he got convicted of falsely imprisoning a male escort by handcuffing him to a wall in a London apartment. Freak!!

The inmate who took this picture of Boy George, said "A celeb is a celeb in here. People love fame. Everyone remembers Culture Club.” Do U think he'll last in prison??

MILEY CYRUS PERFORMS @ KID'S INAUGURAL


The video above features Hannah Montana, Miley Cyrus singing The Climb off of her new movie soundtrack, at the kid's inaugural. Again, I'm not a huge Miley fan but lately she really has it together!

SHOES OF THE DAY.

Super cute, that's exactly what these 4 1/2" heels are. These faux leather wood stacked heels by Michael Antonio are a must have! I actually really want a pair of these for myself, so if you buy a pair -- buy me one too! The price tag on these high heels is $34.50, which is surprisingly decent. Even if you're not a heels girl, you should try these out, if you think you can master walking in 4 1/2" heels.

HAPPY DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING JR DAY.


To celebrate Martin Luther King Jr, I've decided to post this Youtube tribute video made by user Manny535. The song used in the video is called "Look Down, Lord" from "Rosewood"(1997), featuring lyrics and music by John Williams. This is a very well done video.

There is also an audio excerpt from Dr. King's "I've Been to the Mountaintop" speech: "We've got some difficult days ahead. But it really doesn't matter with me now, because I've been to the mountaintop. And I don't mind. Like anybody, I would like to live a long life. Longevity has its place. But I'm not concerned about that now. I just want to do God's will. And He's allowed me to go up to the mountain. And I've looked over. And I've seen the Promised Land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people, will get to the Promised Land!"

Martin Luther King Jr, will never be forgotten! Let's hope Obama can fulfill what Martin wanted to do, we'll have to see though.

OPRAH HAD A PRIVATE DINNER W/OBAMA.


Entertainment Tonight is saying that Oprah and Gayle were among 100 people at a closed-doors banquet at Blair House, across the street from the White House. If that's not enough -- Oprah's best friend Gayle King confirmed the story, and revealed details.

"It was a buffet dinner, so everything you'd expect in a buffet was there - as someone who's trying to fit into a red hot inauguration dress, a buffet is not my friend," Gayle tells ET. Well well, what lucky girls, huh?? I'm kinda hungry now, I could go for a buffet -- Obama invite me to dinner next!

A 16 YEAR OLD GETS STABBED AFTER WATCHING "MY BLOODY VALENTINE, 3D"

Yikes!! No 16 year old boy could see this coming! After watching a screening of the movie My Bloody Valentine in 3D, a security guard named Ricardo Singh was getting people out of the theaters for the next show -- when a 16 year old boy refused to leave, saying he wanted to wait inside for his ride.

What did that result in??? An irrational stabbing in the stomach! "They pushed and shoved each other, then Singh removed a folding knife from his pocket and stabbed the victim in the upper stomach area," a police news release said, according to NewsDay. The 16 year old boy was taken to the hospital, where he received six stitches.

The guard was arrested and charged with second-degree assault, and is set to appear in court today. What a crazy guy!! It was probably cold out, the guard should've let him stay in.

5 ESSENTIAL ITEMS YOU NEED IN COLLEGE.

So many girls realize they forgot items at home they typically don’t think they would need at school. Here’s to save you the frustration and an inside look to what you should have in your dorm!

1. Dress pants/Suit

Make sure to have an outfit that can be versatile for all occasions. Classes sometimes require formal attire for presentations or you may be invited to an award ceremony. You never know when a dressy occasion can occur!

Ann Taylor Loft has adorable jackets and pants to mix and match cute outfits! And the accessories match any outfit for cheap!


2. Sweats
Always have a cute pair of sweats for that girl’s night planned last minute! You’ll have a blast with manicures, do-it-yourself facials and blasting the radio along with feeling comfy and cute!

Victoria’s Secret PINK

has an awesome and colorful collection of sweatpants and shirts. And lots of items are on clearance!


3. Umbrella

Nothing is worse than getting ready for the day and running to class sopping wet! Fix the problem by getting a cute umbrella.

This pink umbrella is really cheap and adorable! It’s from Target and comes in different colors and styles! And it is compact and can fit in your book bag/purse!


4. Webcam
Even if you live a half hour away from home or three hours away from home, having a webcam is a really nice item to have. Seeing your parents or friends face makes talking to them more special than just hearing there voice on the phone. And it allows you to stay in touch with high school friends! If you feel homesick while away at school a webcam is an easy solution.

HANNAH MONTANA MOVIE TRAILER.

Cute! Despite the fact that I'm not a huge fan of Miley Cyrus, the movie seems like it'll be cute and actually enjoyable. I probably won't pay to see this movie in a theater, but someday I'll end up watching it. Click here to watch the trailer.

PURSE OF THE DAY.

Check out this purse of day! This multi-colored sequin purse is absolutely adorable, and has a decent price tag of $33. You will definitely be unique with this one of a kind purse -- I haven't seen anyone with one of these! Do U like it???

REMEMBER AALIYAH.


Today would've been Aaliyah's 30th birthday. R.I.P Aaliyah, you are missed by people around the world. This video is in tribute to her.

JEANS OF THE DAY.

Hottt! These dark skinny jeans are to die for, and the shoes are awesome too. The price tag of these must have jeans are a somewhat high of $100, but if I had $100 to spare I'd be buying a pair right now -- maybe two. Skinny jeans and a pair of hot high heels is such an easy look to pull off. Try it!

SNEAP PEEK AT BRITNEY'S TOUR.

Get it girl! Check out these pictures of Britney Spears taken at tour rehearsal on Monday night. You can tell Ms. Britney is really trying hard, and she's got her body back! Now that everyone is rooting for her and she looks great -- I hope she has the confidence to deliver a great tour. I believe that she can.
Britney's drawstring pants made by designer Lisa Kline, benefited Breast Cancer awareness! Aw, what a good deed Brit. 

FERGIE VIVA GLAM CAMPAIGN.

Yikes! This new Viva Glam campaign Fergie is in on for Mac Cosmetics isn't so flattering. Due to the horrible angle she's in, she appears to look like a bird -- and the ouftit doesn't help with that either. Maybe they wanted her to look like a bird??? In that case, she did a great job. Despite the fact that Fergie looks yucky in this picture, the colors and makeup are done nicely!

VANESSA & ANGELA SIMMONS COPY CATS??

Vanessa and Angela Simmons have a new line of clothing coming out called Pastry, and their designs are anything but original apparently! Johnny Cupcakes, a designer who has all his own original ideas is speaking out against them to make people aware. Check out stolen ideas below! Johnny Cupcakes designs are on the left, the original ones..... and Pastry is on the right. What do U think about all of this???

From Johnny;

Rando​mly putti​ng baked​ items​ on t-​shirt​s and havin​g an entir​e brand​ revol​ve aroun​d it is free for anyon​e to do. I don’​t own food.​ Howev​er,​ I did indee​d start​ this brand​ of mine 8 years​ ago, havin​g it’s main focus​ be revol​ved aroun​d cupca​kes and anyth​ing assoc​iated​ with it. In the indep​enden​t t-​shirt​ indus​try,​ I belie​ve I was the first​ perso​n to go all out with this cupca​ke / bakin​g motif​.​ I’ve made a treme​ndous​ amoun​t of sacri​fices​ and risks​ to make it the homeg​rown,​ famil​y run, fun, limit​ed busin​ess that it is, since​ I dropp​ed out of high schoo​l and sold my t-​shirt​s out of my rusty​ car. With my brand​s main focus​ on my custo​mers and their​ exper​ience​,​ I think​ I’ve been doing​ a prett​y swell​ job at it.
Last Sprin​g I was alert​ed by a custo​mer who happe​ned to work at a popul​ar mall sport​swear​ store​.​ This custo​mer of mine caugh​t a glimp​se of his manag​er’s catal​og which​ had vario​us items​ that were being​ relea​sed in the near futur​e at all of their​ mall locat​ions.​ One of the items​ in this compa​nies catal​og was a “​Make Pastr​y Not War” t-​shirt​.​ Not only was it a very simil​ar sloga​n,​ but it had the same EXACT​ place​ment,​ font,​ EVEN A CUPCA​KE in the cente​r of the t-​shirt​.​ This was no coinc​idenc​e.​ Weeks​ later​ my inbox​ was flood​ed with furio​us Johnn​y Cupca​kes custo​mers who saw this same catal​og with the ‘​Pastr​y’​ desig​n in it. I could​ of made a big deal about​ it onlin​e,​ makin​g every​one else aware​ of it. Inste​ad,​ I decid​ed not to be a cry baby and post it all over the inter​net,​ so I sough​t out a diffe​rent route​.​ I decid​ed to conta​ct my trade​mark attor​ney,​ who then conta​cted the owner​s of Pastr​y / Pastr​y Kicks​.​ We got in touch​ with the Presi​dent of a certa​in mall chain​-​store​ who ended​ up decli​ning the order​ of all ‘​Make Pastr​y Not War’ t-​shirt​s.

The thing​ that baffl​es me, is why would​ two girls​ who’​re famou​s via MTV, have to stoop​ so low to creat​e such simil​ar items​,​ never​ mind brand​?​ Maybe​ they’​re both reall​y great​ girls​ who happe​ned to hire some not-​so-​great​ desig​ners?​ I’m not sure what the case is, but I do know that this shoul​d be broug​ht to every​ones atten​tion.
