WOMEN STABS BOYFRIEND OVER AMERICAN IDOL.
Oh wow! Just when you think you've heard it all, moms getting tattoos so her daughter can meet Justin Bieber....but apparently a woman stabbed her boyfriend over the hit show American Idol.
The woman went crazy when her boyfriend changed the channel from "American Idol" to something else. She then proceeded to stab him with a 10 inch butchers knife, and poured hot chocolate on him.
The boyfriend is doing fine, but she is being charged with attempted murder. Oh gee, I really doubt the episode was worth trying to kill your friend. They do make TIVO y'know!
MY RECENT PURCHASE: AE SUEDE GRADUATE BOOT.
They finally came in! I've been really busy with work, college, and a new apartment ~ which my boyfriend and I are moving into today, so sorry for lack of updates. I recently purchased these suede graduate boots from American Eagle, for $20 -- while they were originally $70.
I must say I love these boots already!! They are comfortable, and easy to walk in-- yes even with the heel it is. I will say the color is a little darker in person, and you should order a size up. I wear size 7 but ordered a size 7 1/2. If you like boots, especially cowboy-ish style ones -- these are great.
Own it!

JASON CASTRO OPENS UP US TOUR TO GREAT REVIEWS.
This week, Jason Castro hit the road with Caitlin Crosby and label-mate Matt Hires on a cross-country tour. The American Idol alum is only a few shows in, and his set is already receiving great reviews. The New York Times checked out Wednesday night's show and reflected on the journey that Castro has made from his American Idol audition to his "magnetic set" at Joe's Pub.
"Earlier this month he released “The Love Uncompromised EP” (Atlantic), a prelude to a full album this spring, and it’s among the most sure-footed records, debut or otherwise, by an “Idol” contestant from any season. Partly that’s because Mr. Castro has had time to marinate, and to woodshed. His season’s winner, David Cook, and runner-up, David Archuleta, both released debut albums about six months after the season finale. But no one rushed Mr. Castro to pin down his style, and he certainly didn’t rush himself. He’s got it down cold now, though: 1960s pop with bright guitars, slashed through with a contrarian streak. It’s as if he were still stuck in one of the genre-themed weeks on “Idol,” but the most apt one. Jack Johnson and Jason Mraz should be nervous."

MOM GETS TATTOO OF GUYS FACE, SO HER DAUGHTER CAN MEET JUSTIN BIEBER.
What in the...? A teenager who desperately wanted tickets to meet 15 year old singer Justin Bieber had her mother get a tattoo of a radio hosts' face on her back. Watch the video above to see the tattoo and the crazy mom who did it.
Ok.....I could understand if it was a huge celebrity like.. Brad...well no I couldn't understand! What is this lady thinking??? I hope that daughter gets the best night of her life, because her mother will surely never forget it.
TAYLOR SWIFT BEATS OUT BRITNEY SPEARS.

Country singer Taylor Swift broke the record for best first-week download sales by a female artist as her single "Today Was a Fairytale" for her upcoming film "Valentine's Day" has topped at 325,000 downloads according to Billboard.
The previous female artist holding this was pop star Britney Spears, with 286,000 downloads of "Womanizer" in October 2008. How awesome!! Congrats to T-Swizzle.
MARIAH CAREY'S NEW MUSIC VIDEO "UP OUT MY FACE"
Hmm. Check out Mariah Carey's latest video to her song "Up Out My Face" featuring Nicki Minaj. I am not a huge fan of the music video, and I only enjoy the song because of Nicki Minaj. The problem with the music video is that Mariah seems to think she is 20 years younger than she really is!
If this was her first video out, and she was 19 - 20 years old then it wouldn't be so bad. But I'd like to see Mariah come out with something that has more..substance. What do ya'll think?
CUTE BUY OF THE DAY: FLORAL BANDEAU TOP.
Soo cute!! Today's buy of the day is a floral bandeau top from ASOS. I am a huge fan of floral designs, and I think this top is perfect for the spring. It may be a bit pricey for some, at $30 but I think it's worth it. As shown in the model picture it looks fabulous with a pair of dark jeans.
Own it!
Floral top $30.59

TILA TEQUILA SAYS SHES PREGNANT & SONOGRAM HITS INTERNET.
After what appeared to be months of tweeting that she was "pregnant" the celeb has pushed rumors further as she has given proof by providing Radaronline.com with a sonogram -- which you can see by clicking here. The sonogram is allegedly hers as it says the first two letters of her last name which would be the initials "NG." It would be gross for her to lie about this but then again it is Tila we are talking about.
The reality tv star says she is in the first trimester, and if you read her tweets she talks about being hungry a lot. However, even with the sonogram how believable is this? Tila doesn't help her self out by tweeting insane things at all hours of the day.
Regarding whether or not she cheated on Casey Johnson, she tells Radar Online, "I know the whole world is confused as to why I am pregnant while I was still engaged to Casey. They wonder if I cheated on her. Well, while Casey and I were engaged, the world doesn't know that Casey and I talked a lot about our future."
ORIANTHI TO RE-RELEASE DEBUT ALBUM “BELIEVE” WITH BONUS TRACK AS KING OF POP CONCERT FILM “THIS IS IT” DVD HITS STORES.
After a whirlwind few months following the release of Believe and This Is It, Orianthi isn't about to slow down any time soon. With her debut single “According To You” #10 at top 40 radio, and her album sitting at #2 on the Billboard New Artist chart, she performed the song on Jimmy Kimmel Live and The Ellen DeGeneres Show last week.
Last week also marked the premiere of Orianthi's new music video for "Highly Strung," a blistering guitar duet between she and legendary guitarist Steve Vai, a long-time friend and mentor to the 24-year-old Australian. In the video, which premiered on AOL, the two phenoms face each other in a guitar show-down of epic proportions. Click here to watch.
Finally, for fans in the Los Angeles area, Orianthi will be hosting a free all-ages concert and CD signing at the Hard Rock Cafe outside Universal Studios on Friday, February 5th at 8:30 pm. Space is limited, so plan ahead for this unique opportunity! Visit the Hard Rock website for more details, and stay tuned to Orianthi.com for additional updates.

The comedian was in town to perform, but I guess he did a little more than that. But this is nothing new... as he is already on probation for sexual assault at a pizza restaurant.

MY TOP 5 MAKE-UP FAVORITES.
1. Rimmel "Glam Eyes" mascara.
I LOVE love this mascara! I am very picky when it comes to products, thus when I really like something then I really like it. Rimmel did a great job on this one, it's probably the first mascara that I have been 100% satisfied with. For starters it's cute on its own -- which will catch your eye in the first place.
But as for it's abilities, it adds great volume to your lashes in a natural looking way. Also it is GREAT about not clumping!!! I don't know about you but I really hate when mascara is constantly clumping, and I don't get that problem here. Lastly, it's good at defining your lashes while separating them.
The price tag is about $7.50 which may be more than you are willing to spend, but it's well worth it.
Click here to buy it.
2. "Spun Silk" eyeshadow from Mary Kay.
This is my favorite eyeshadow! It's called "spun silk" and it's from Mary Kay. The color is light, and perfectly natural looking which is primarily why I love it. However it does wash off easy so you may want to use something else first that'll make it stay on throughout the day. This eyeshadow has been discontinued but of course you can find it on Ebay. It is a little pricey for the size, usually ranging at the cheapest $3 - 4 dollars.
Click here to find it on Ebay.
3. "Cupcake" lipgloss by Beauty Rush from Victoria's Secret.
I am not a huge lipgloss fan at all, but this one is great. First thing I really love is that it's clear with sparkles, I can't stand bright lipgloss on myself it doesn't look right. Second favorite is the smell -- cupcake!!!! Seriously it smells so good you may want to eat it. They cost around $7 from what I've seen.
Click here to buy it.
4. "SPO8 Tease" eyeshadow from Micabella Cosmetics.
Sparkly, and fun is what this eyeshadow is. I couldn't find a good picture online so I took a couple myself for ya'll to see. I even took a picture of me wearing it[above] even though I think it's a lot prettier in person. Though it also comes off soon it's really pretty, especially in the sun. The color is natural with some glitter as I don't enjoy crazy colors most days. The price is $14.95 but I am sure you could find it cheaper on Ebay, or somewhere else. It was given to me by my boyfriend, we got it half off because it was the holidays.
Click here to buy it.
5.) Mary Kay medium-coverage foundation.
I don't wear foundation everyday but the days I do want to wear it -- I go to this one. I find most of Mary Kay's products overpriced, but this foundation feels great on my face. It doesn't feel heavy, and I can't even tell I'm wearing any when I do. It blends easily and doesn't dry out your face. The price is at $14, and while it's small -- it lasted me for at least 6 months.

INTERNATIONAL SUPERSTAR DEBI NOVA RELEASES FIRST SINGLE FROM US DEBUT ALBUM.
International superstar Debi Nova has officially released the first single from her US debut! The infectious "Drummer Boy" is available on iTunes this week, and it will appear on her forthcoming full-length album, Luna Nueva, due out in the spring.
A resident of Costa Rica and the US, Nova sings in both English and Spanish on the upcoming release, combining her native tongue and the language of her adopted homeland. "The idea of singing in both English and Spanish on the album wasn't planned," Nova says. "As I was writing the songs, I found myself naturally blending the two because it's something I do every day...The world is becoming smaller and I'm proud to represent that." Luna Nueva is a genre-defying blend of music that anyone can enjoy and proof that pop music really is a universal language. With six Grammy Award nominated projects (Black Eyed Peas, Ricky Martin, Mark Ronson…) and a number one dance single under her belt, singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Debi Nova is ready to make her mark on the rest of the world.
Stay tuned for the video premiere of "Drummer Boy" next month across MTV's platform, and head over to iTunes today to grab the track. Visit www.debinova.com for more info.
