    Love Wedding Marriage Trailer Starring: Mandy Moore, Kellan Lutz & Jessi...

    The cast seems pretty cool... i'm down - total chick flick though.

    Ke$ha - Blow

    Like the beat of this song... the video is kinda odd funny - worth checking out.

    2011 Oscars....

    Okay, so was anyone else disappointed in Anne Hathaway & James Franco?   Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of both of their work thus far, considering they are so young and they have great film background already, but what happened last night?  They were both being themselves, however, something got lost.  Not sure, if they were being too cautious or what, but something was off.  Maybe I put too much hype in it, being that I'm such a fan for them both...but total fail on my part.  Now the winners were as I expected...this award season has not been too surprising, the same best actress, best actor and director, etc., have been winning all season. Everything else has been either best film, either Social Network or The King's Speech - so not shocked.  Two things I do wish the academy did do is give more recognition to the film, The Town - Ben Affleck directed one hell of a movie and the entire cast (including him) did such an amazing job and happy Jeremy Renner got recognized, I think the movie as a whole deserved more.  Second thing, was Inception, Leonardo DiCaprio totally ignored - he was awesome.  Don't think he deserved the Oscar this year, but definitely worthy of a nomination.  Another fun part of award season is the fashion... some gorgeous dresses last night.   Bold, strong, bright colors and others were simple but classic.   I will post some of my favorite dresses and some of my favorite Hollywood couples.

    These women look gorgeous... some sizzling hot gorgeous and some simply classic and some took more of a chance but pulled it off.  Who was your favorite?
     

     

     

     



     


    Now some of the men I thought looked sharp....
     



    Some of my favorite couples..... and can I say how Kidman is SO pretty.
     

     
     

     Now the hosts...Hathaway had seven changes during the show, I will post my favorite dress, but I must admit my favorite look on her was not during the show but the BEAUTIFUL Red Valentino dress she wore on the red carpet.  On Franco, I liked the tux he closed the show with, as well as the dark navy suit with the blue bow tie and grey buttoned shirt.

     

     

    Lady Gaga - Born This Way

    Here you go everyone... what do you think????

    Dr. Dre - I Need a Doctor ft Eminem & Skylar Grey

    WOW....Dr. Dre was the best in hip hop at one point in this hip hop game.  I personally loved his music, whether he was rapping or if he was producing the track.  His history thus far has been amazing.  True Legend.  The video is full of honesty, respect and love for each other, the history of Dr. Dre, the gratitude Eminem feels towards Dr. Dre.  
    If you are a fan of hip hop you will know the history already, but if you don't, get to it!  Research and learn but the words on this record are real and true facts.   If you don't know the history, you might not understand the ending...very poignant.  What do you think?  Did you love the video as I did?

    Adele - Someone Like You (Live in Her Home)

    I've been a fan of Adele since I heard the song, 'Hometown Glory', but what really caught on in the US was another good song, 'Chasing Pavements'. About a month ago, I posted her first single/video 'Rolling In the Deep'. However, I just heard 'Someone Like You' and was totally amazed. Love the lyrics, love the song.. and the video I'm posting below is pretty cool. She's got an amazing voice which definitely makes you stop and take recognition!

    Queens of Dogtown - "Would" (Music Video)

    I know you all know how much I love Showtime's Californication...but damn, this show is always SO good. Anyway, the character Hank Moody's (played by the insanely good David Duchovny) daughter Becca (played by they young but cool Madeleine Martin) joined a band called Queens of Dogtown and in the past few episodes they have played some cover songs - which are awesome. Also, the lead singer is is Zoe Kravitz, yes, thats right the daughter of the great awesome rock star Lenny Kravitz - great voice, just like her daddy. Well, the first video is Queens of Dogtown covering the great alternative rock band Alice in Chains, 'Would' and the second is one of my personal favorite 80s ballad, 'I Remember You' by Skid Row. Skid Row's video used to make me cry everytime and I mean everytime! So here you go... awesome covers!

    One Day -- Movie Poster (2011)

    The next big award show is the Oscar in less than two weeks away, which is being hosted by the great Anne Hathaway and the cool James Franco.  They both have a great sense of humor and I really think this will be a great show, just like Hugh Jackman.. his intro was probably one my favs in the past few years.

    Back to Anne, in 2011 she stars with Jim Sturgess in One Day, which i'm thinking will be an amazing romantic comedy.  Not sure if it will be limited release or wide release, so below is the poster which was just released this week and I will keep you posted, but check out the movie details on http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1563738/

    2011 Grammy's - Fashion, Coolness, Fashion....

     Some people stood out for me... here you go!!
    Selma Blair looks so pretty and the dress looks so comfy but yet still stylish for a pregnant Selma!

    Miranda Lambert looking gorgeous.... the dress looked SO good on her!
    Selena Gomez looking so classy for a young girl... very nice!

    Hollywood at it's best... Keith Urban, Nicole Kidman, Seal, Heidi Klum, Jada Pinkett-Smith, Will and Willow Smith
    Always a great looking couple...Heidi Klum and Seal

    Drake looking dashing....

    Beyonce and Gwyneth Paltrow

    Sara Bareilles looking beautiful in that dress

    As always, one of my favorite couples to look out for at any music/film award show.. Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman

    Diane Agron...best makeup.  Look at those eyes..hello!

    2011 Grammys - My Favorite Performances!

    The best band/album of 2010 for me personally Mumford & Sons -- it took them to perform on Sunday's Grammys for people to take notice.... i think they gave one of the best, if not the best performance from Sunday's show.   They were joined by Avett Brothers who were awesome as well and the legendary great Bob Dylan, although was not his best performance.  Still had to post...


    The bad rep music genius John Mayer, the soulful Norah Jones and the awesome guitarist songwriter and music lover Keith Urban... honoring the great iconic Dolly Parton by singing her own 'Jolene'.


    One of my favorite rappers Eminem ft Rihanna, the very missed Dr. Dre and the rising star Sklyar Grey singing 'I Love the Way You Lie' (Part II), and "I need a Doctor", new single from Dr. Dre's upcoming new album Detox.


    One of my favorites from country music, miss soon to be Mrs, the cool Miranda Lambert, singing another favorite song from 2010, 'The House That Built Me'.  Even after a year of this song... still get chills up and down my body and takes me directly to my childhood home and memories.... Ah, 'won't take more than a memory'.  


    The eccentric Cee-Lo and the awesome Gwyneth Paltrow singing 'Forget You'/'F*ck You'.


    B.O.B., Bruno Mars and Janelle Monae did a wonderful medley, 'Nothing on You', 'Renegade' and 'Cold War'... different but cool and probably surprised some people.


    The intro of the 2011 Grammy Awards started off with a tribute the legendary Aretha Franklin.  Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Hudson, Yoland Adams, Martina McBride and Florence and the Machine's Florence Welch all sang a few of Aretha's best. These ladies can sing and the entire performance was great and gave me chills... amazing, amazing voices.  



    What a year Lady Antebellum has had... well deserved, well deserved!  They sang a cover, 'If You Don't Me', 'American Honey' and of course 'Need You Know'



    And lastly, Arcade Fire winning album of the year for The Suburbs.  They sang two songs on Sunday night, but the second song they performed is one of my favorites, 'Ready to Start'.  So here you go... 



    I've only left out a few performances, that's how great they were... Rihanna Ft Drake fun performance and I'm actually going to see her over the summer for the Loud Tour which I'm so excited about!  The great band Muse, also a great performance, Justin Bieber's performance ft Usher and Jaden Smith, Katy Perry and Lady Gaga.  They were all good performances but nothing got me as much as the ones I posted above.


    What were your favorites?

    Vanity Fair Hollywood Issue!

    I've collected so many of these Hollywood Issues through the years - just one of the best issue of the year by Vanity Fair.  Love discovering new actors and getting a teaser of who they are...and was happy to see this year's cover, when half of the group are actors that I have enjoyed watching and will most likely continue to do so.  It's a cliche, but have always been a fan of the idea of Hollywood, especially old school Hollywood when all bad in the background was so hush hush but from an outside point of view, looked so pretty and nice.  The idea of making it was, is just such a dream and the drive of surviving.  
    Year after  year, there is always a cover and then two side panels which unfold into this incredible shot of such talented people who are so different in many ways and express creative talents through different roles, projects, philanthropy, etc.  
    This year, I'm extremely delighted with the talented, talented, talented group on the cover ...the sexy sweet super funny Ryan Reynolds, the serious, charming, handsome but yet playful Jake Gyllenhaal, the pretty, multi-layer who keeps surpassing every step Anne Hathaway and of course the James Dean of our generation, funny, complicated but oozes coolness James Franco.  
    Unfold the rest of the cover and the next actor is the young but fresh newcomer Jennifer Lawrence, the adorable but constant performer Anthony Mackie, the rising star Olivia Wilde, the quiet New Yorker who no one saw coming (well, I saw him coming) Jesse Eisenberg, the beautiful and funny Mila Kunis.  Continuing on.... the legendary, iconic, wonderful Mr. Robert Duvall, the super cute, funny and intelligent Joseph Gordon-Levitt, the rising newcomer Andrew Garfield, the cute but funny, smart Rashida Jones, the rough, sweet, determined Garrett Hedlund and finally the tough new beauty Noomi Rapace.

    I know some of you might not be familiar with everyone on this cover but one or two might fade away either they decide to stay behind the cameras instead of center stage or some just rather do something else creatively or some completely remove themselves from "Hollywood".   Whatever happens...at the end of the day, it's a classy cover, very glamorous, very Hollywood.   If you can, go pick up the issue -- they are always a good read!

    Travis Porter - Make It Rain

    This song is so damn catchy!!!!

    Phantogram - Mouthful Of Diamonds

    This video is the first video off their debut album 'Eyelid Movies' - but the sound is new and kinda haunting. Do you agree? What do you think?

    Warpaint - Undertow

    So I decided to post this song... i've heard it several times and something about it - very enchanting; the voice, the sound and i finally got to posting it. They are going to perform at the Bowery Ballroom in NYC - will see if I can convince a friend to check them out live.   Oh, almost forgot - there is a line where i think they totally took from nirvana - so i'm thinking they are fans, which is pretty damn cool.  #girlpower  #lovenirvana #lovekurtcobain
