Who Do You Think You Are

OK, so I wanna know why is it only now that I am hearing about the new NBC show, Who Do You Think You Are? I came across it last week and have it set to record each week on my DVR. I saw my first episode this past Friday, although it’s not the first time the show has aired. Heck, it wasn’t even the first time that particular episode had aired. But despite me being late to discovering it, I am glad I did! Basically the show helps celebrities (one each episode) discover their genealogy. The episode I watched … Continue reading

Have you ever wondered what Carrie Bradshaw was like as a teen? (And I’m not talking about Sarah Jessica Parker’s stint on TV’s Square Pegs.) Sex and the City is going back in time thanks to creator Candace Bushnell. The author recently announced that she is writing a series of literary prequels featuring her most famous character, Carrie Bradshaw.

Free-Thinking Female Celebs Speak Their Minds

If you’ve always dreamed of running into award-winning actress Susan Sarandon on the streets of L.A. or New York you better hope that Republican John McCain doesn’t win November’s presidential election.

Sex and the City Shocker

As you may know from reading some of my blogs, I am eagerly looking forward to the upcoming “Sex and the City” film. The movie set has been pretty closed, with only a few potential spoilers being revealed, such as us seeing Carrie in a wedding dress (Is it a dream? Is it real?). Now, one of the stars of the movie has let a shocker slip! Cynthia Nixon, who plays lawyer Miranda Hobbs on the show, has said that a main character dies in the upcoming movie. She refused to say who it was, but did say that the … Continue reading

Cash Concert Canned and “Stanford” Dishes on “Sex”

On January 13, 1968, Johnny Cash performed a legendary concert at the Folsom State Prison. Cash himself was no stranger to run-ins with the law. But, despite his image, Cash was never sentenced to prison. He did go to jail seven times, but only spent one night each stay. However, his Folsom Prison concert helped give him the “outlaw” image and was a breakthrough performance that became a well-liked live album. To make the 40th anniversary of that memorable concert, there was tribute concert planned, but those plans have now been scrapped. Who decided to cancel the concert? Well, that … Continue reading

Well, That is Not Very Nice!

Other magazines usually release their “sexist female celebrity” lists, but Maxim has gone one step further – they just released their Unsexiest female celebrity list. Their Unsexiest Woman Alive article includes women from all over the world that appear in movies, on television, and on stage. So, who made the undesirable list? Coming in at number 5 was Britney Spears. Now to me, this is a case of kicking someone when she is down. Britney does look a little worse for wear lately, but about five years ago, she was on everyone’s hot list. However, the people at Maxim said … Continue reading
