The Bangles Are Touring

Susannah Hoffs, Debbie Peterson, and Vicki Peterson somehow re-banded @ one point in time so the Bangles can play @ county fairs. They've been doing that for a while I think.
Where's Michael?

The group were in Perth over the weekend and will be touring overseas the next few weeks.

They were in Bakersfield, CA in mid-September and will be in Hawaii @ the end of December.

I didn't get a chance to see them when they were fiercely popular in the late 80's. They should come back to the Bay Area. Don't you agree?
Oh, Hazy Shade of Winter. Oh, Eternal Flame. Oh, Manic Monday. Oh, Walk Like and Egyptian. Oh, etc. etc.

Tina Fey Rockin'

Hot commodity Tina Fey was filming her television show, 30 Rock, Monday morning with co-star Jane Krakowski @ Rockefeller Center.

Fey once again reprised her Sarah Palin persona on Saturday Night Live this past weekend and killed it! Best part of the skit was when she pulled out a flute and asked if they were doing the talent portion. Most excellent! Did anyone catch when Queen Latifah accidentally referred to her as Senator Palin?

Rumor has it that Palin will be spoofing Fey in those American Express ads that Tina does.

The season premiere of 30 Rock airs @ the end of this month and Salma Hayek has agreed to do two episodes. The show keeps rolling with all sorts of guest stars. Go Liz Lemon!

Elle Magazine Honor The Women

There was a bunch of people hanging out tonight @ The Four Seasons Hotel in Los Angeles. Elle Magazine had their 15th Annual Women in Hollywood Tribute.

Where was Heidi Montag? Or the bestest one in Hollywood, Lauren Conrad? Oh, let's chuckle.

It was pretty A-List @ this evening's event. Is Jennie Garth and Jenna Dewan A-List? Oh, Cheryl Tiegs was there. And so was Leah Remini. And a bunch more ladies.
Take a look-y.



Jane Fonda and Kat Dennings


Isla Fisher and Nicole Kidman

Courteney Cox and Sheryl Crow


Halle Berry and Kerry Washington


Anne Hathaway

Kate Beckinsale

Jennie Garth and Peter Facinelli

Jennifer Lopez and Jenny McCarthy

That's all.

Oh, JA....

Sleepy Sunday

It's almost three o'clock and I've yet to get little drummer girl ready for an afternoon of adventure. Adventure? Not so much.

Titanic is on TV. Remember Rose's lavender dress with the pink sash?

My hair's behaving in a frizzy manner.

Stunning Saturday

Let's see. It's a stunning Saturday afternoon and I'm lazing out. I thought it was supposed to rain? But the blue skies are starting to peek.

I was in B-Town last night and I vaguely remember being told about cottage cheese?

And then I recalled a moment a few days ago when I received a phone call @ work asking for immigration.

One word: Mom

I wonder how Buster did @ her hour long walk-a-thon this morning?

How did I miss some girl's hair catching on fire @ the Ya-Ya? Good Lord!

Anne Hathaway is hosting SNL tonight and I do not know who the musical guest is. I wonder if Tina Fey will be back as Sarah Palin mocking the VP debate that happened last Thursday?

De Niro And The Penns

Robert De Niro joined co-stars Sean Penn and wife Robin Wright Penn for the premiere of their movie, What Just Happened on Wednesday @ the Museum of Modern Art in NYC.

The comedy is about a movie producer and the Hollywood movie making business.

De Niro was kind enough to sign a bunch of autographs for waiting fans.

I wonder if the Penns sold their house in Ross, CA?

The Real Reason : Justin Bobby!

Well, well, well. If this is a publicity stunt for The Hills, it sure is working. But then again, haven't we all wondered why Audrina (Patridge) and Lauren (Conrad) have really been on the outs? Is it honestly Lo Bosworth? Guess not. According to reports, Lauren hooked up with Audrina's on/off boyfriend, Justin Bobby (cymbals clashing)!

Audrina posted on her own blog that she doesn't know what's going on and she can't say for sure if this story is true or false but added it is hurtful. Conrad has denied these rumors through In Touch magazine.

Dang! What's up with that? Classic tale of a guy coming in between BFF's.

The questions are: Why won't Audrina say it isn't true? Does she believe that there may be an ounce of truth to all of this? Or is this all part of the producers plans to keep the story going? If true, how could Lauren do this?

Shannen Out With Her Man

90210 alum Shannen Doherty was out and about with a mystery male in LA. He's kinda cute, yeah? And Shannen looks good from that distance. We can't see her mystery gap or the noticeable aging in her face. I hope she continues her arc as Brenda Walsh. Show us the spitfire!

Lady GaGa Opening Up For The New Kids

Lady GaGa will be one of two (Natasha Bedingfield is the other one) opening acts for New Kids on the Block. And those opening acts I'm very much looking forward to as well as NKOTB, of course. Lady GaGa has a few good dance songs out and little drummer girl sings to "Paparazzi" all the time. Some say that Christina Aguilera copied her MTV VMA performance look off of the Lady.

Give "Paparazzi" a listen to. It's from Lady GaGa's album, The Fame. It's fierce!


Ooh, The JA Buys A Phone

Jennifer Aniston was spotted in Beverly Hills yesterday picking up a new Blackberry. That's all...

Why you look so sad?

Lipstick Jungle, Baby

Wow! Now I can see why Cashmere Mafia was canceled and Lipstick Jungle was not. I love this show! I wonder how it's doing in the ratings?

That scene with Nico (Kim Raver) and Kirby (Robert Buckley) on the roof top was wow. And as cute as Joe (Andrew McCarthy) is, the contractor that Victory is crushing on is so hot.

And the fashion is wow as well. Kim Raver's blue blouse from last week? So, so nice. Lindsay Price sported two bags last night that were pretty pretty. She sure doesn't look like Janet from 90210 anymore. Ian Ziering? Andrew McCarthy? Ian Ziering? Hot contractor guy?

Oh, and Brooke Shields also had a storyline but it was boring. They better spice her up quick.

Are You Ready, Palin? Are You Ready, Biden? Drop It!

There won't be a new episode of The Office or Grey's Anatomy on Thursday even though their fall season just started last week. It's a special occasion. It's the Vice Presidential Debate that evening between Democratic nominee Joe Biden and Republican nominee Sarah Palin.

Where is Governor Palin? Isn't she being coached and briefed on how to respond to questions and such by the McCain camp?

Viewers will be tuning in by the millions.

And will Tina Fey be back on SNL this weekend to parody the debate? We're all hoping for it.

Wait, Is It 1992?

The way Kelly (Jennie Garth) was fighting with Brenda (Shannen Doherty) on last night's 90210 made me pause for a sec. It's 2008, right? Goodness gracious; Kelly reverted to high school smack, accusing Brenda of wanting Dylan all to herself. WTF? What is going on with my favorite blond CW characters these days? Have they really been reading "Be Your Own Wind Keeper?" (Good analogy from Jacob @ TWOP). And they're making their BFF's out to be their "lightening barriers".

Why was Brenda tearing up after deleting Dylan's contact info on her phone?

What did Ryan and Brenda do after the fashion show?

Why do I keep forgetting that Aunt Becky is on this show?

Why do I not see the chemistry between Dixon (Tristan Wilds) and Silver (Jessica Stroup)? Why are their first names last names?

And most importantly, Brenda may go visit her brother, Brandon AND HIS FAMILY? Whoa, Bessie...It better not be Emily Valentine. This just crushes it for me. Kelly never ended up with Brandon and Jim and Cindy are floating along in Hong Kong.
