FOREVER

2011-03-16T18:11:00.000-07:00

Holy smokes it been forever since I was on here. I had a baby and it took away an entire year of my life. I love my baby more than the world but it wasn't easy! Every milestone etc. never just happened we always had some problem or difficulty getting there. By one my babes finally slept through the night. Before that she was waking 3-4 times a night. You really don't know how hard it is until you're going through it. It was SO HARD! and now I'm trying to get rid of my breast milk and it hurts so bad and sucks so much! ahhhhhh I need to get rid of it asap!

OMG This is hilarious! A letter from NBA player Ron Artest to Tiger Woods

2009-12-16T06:47:00.001-08:00

Dear Tiger,
In reading the statements you have made, I can tell you are a stand up guy. Please remember only Jesus is perfect. You made a mistake and you admitted your infidelity.
I have made the same mistakes. Before I got married to my wife, I had a baby with another young lady, after I already had two by my girlfriend who is now my wife. We also had another baby which makes three for us and four for me. Two boys and two girls.
My wife is a much better wife than I am a husband. We still argue and disagree after being together 16 years. and I still cope with the fact that there are so many women out there and I choose to stay loyal to my wife.
I want to be home every night, but with traveling I can’t, and sometimes I might want to go to a bar or club and be one of the fellas. Most of the time I stay in, because I have my kids and wife.
I cannot sit here and say the thought to have many women has never crossed my mind. If I were Jesus I could.
I have known my wife for 16 years– since I was 14 years old.
She was my first.
On the way to 2010 we had many ups and downs on the way, mostly my fault. But I really choose to work hard and play ball to support her and my kids. The same reason you are building your legacy.
I have been disturbed by this because there are many people who are happy that this bad news has come out.
There are a lot of sports announcers and regular reporters who are not perfect in their own homes, yet they want to bring you down.
You have done so much for people, the sport of golf, and your family and you gave your wife a life that people can’t even dream of.
I thought you were 36 or 37 until I read the news today. A 33-year-old man who has been a model citizen with so much at stake. This is your first publicly known issue since you started your career, compared to my 50 or more publicly known issues and mistakes.
You have been the perfect role model for me and my sons for longer than anyone I have known.
With the exception of a few legends.
As your fan, I can’t wait to see you golf again.
And us athletes know how much you personally love your family.

One love,
Ron Artest

My Happy Thought of the Day

2009-11-11T08:07:00.000-08:00

Awww they're out in public holding hands. Do you remember when you first fell in love? How just holding hands was enough to make you happy! I do! And I love these two! I hope it lasts forever.

What happened to new and inventive stories???

2009-11-04T07:01:00.000-08:00

Tom Selleck, Ted Danson and Steven Guttenberg are reuniting for another Three Men and a Baby sequel.. Why so many years later? Its going to be called Three Men and a Bride.. Come on! It should be called Oldies and their not so much Daughter.

How can you not..

2009-11-04T06:53:00.000-08:00

2009-11-04T06:35:00.000-08:00

Here's a clip of a basketball game from the PBA (Philippine Basketball League) where a player goes out to beat down a fan. The best thing about this is that one of the teams is called Burger King and the player didn't get ejected from the game, the fan did. Only in the Philippines!!!

Some funny photo sourcing

2009-10-20T11:27:00.000-07:00

I often have to do photo research for the children's magazine I work for and I came upon this photo. No wonder Ne-yo always wears a hat.. Wowza that's busted! But I still love his music, it makes me happy.

OMG! HUGE!

2009-09-29T07:25:00.000-07:00

Can you guess which one is Akbar Risuddin? A four-day-old baby boy, weighing 8.7-kilograms (19.2-pounds), lays in the middle of two standard size newborn babies at a hospital in Kisaran, North Sumatra, Indonesia. 19 lbs! Can you imagine? I mean I was 10 lbs, 11 ounces back in the 70s and a month late.. how did this child get so big?

Surpisingly great.. and the not so beautiful

2009-09-28T06:43:00.000-07:00

I just watched the first episode of Modern Family and its such a funny show. I haven't even heard of it, just caught it on trying to find something to watch Friday night. Its followed by Cougar Town which is also pretty interesting. I'm not too sure if I like Flash Forward too much. It had drama, and it looked like the budget was pretty great with the graphics and all but can I really watch another show like Lost where the script is so mysterious that it feels like the writers just make shit up as they go? I like a plan.. a well thought out plan..

Beautiful Life has been cancelled after 2 episodes. It's the first casualty of the season. They're saying the next few shows that have the likeliness of being cancelled are Parks and Recreation, Accidentally on Purpose and So You Think You Can Dance U.S. will go back to just being aired during the summer.

AHAHAH HAHAHAH AHAHAHAH

2009-09-28T06:42:00.001-07:00

A friend of mine had me watch this video this past weekend.. Its kind of gross but its totally hilarious.. watch if you like..

Beautiful Life sucks.. just watch Glee

2009-09-24T08:10:00.000-07:00

I tried to watch Beautiful Life last night and was so bored I went back to good old HGTV to watch Hidden Potential. I just love those render drawings.. anyway.. Glee was on last night again.. and has risen even more! That show is amazing! The football team collaboratively did the Single Ladies dance in the middle of a game.. come on when is that not funny?

Tyra and the Cinch!

2009-09-24T08:02:00.000-07:00

Last night Tyra had a show on the first year of having a baby.. really she just talked about the effects women have physically and emotionally with themselves nothing really with her baby. Anyway.. this woman created this thing that helps your baby belly hide.. Here's the website http://www.byanew.com/?p=cinch The woman named Anew travelled the world to find the perfect fabrics that will allow a tummy tuck while being comfortable.. I wonder if any retailers in Canada have this.. I have to have one! Celebrities from Angelina Jolie, Gwen Stefani, Minnie Driver, Jennifer Gardner, Amy Poehler, Ashlee Simpson, Lisa Marie Presley.. and more have used this.. and surgery of course but whatever I can get to help!

If you actually watched Oprah last night..

2009-09-24T07:56:00.000-07:00

So this woman McKenzie Phillips daughter of John Phillips of The Mama's and Papa's is saying that she had a ten year sexual relationship with her father. ICK!! GROSS!! She was taking drugs like coke and heroine at the age of 11, and woke up one day from a black out to find her father on top of her.. Her family is stating she's a liar I don't know.. It was so disturbing.. she had to be really mashed up out of her brains to really have gone through this or even hallucinate that it happened.. UGH! GAG!!

GG

2009-09-23T06:51:00.000-07:00

Can someone please tell me what the purpose of Vanessa is on Gossip Girl? She is SO irrelevant! I can see they're trying real hard for her so they put her in the dorm with Blair and Georgina but the brother boyfriend thing is getting annoying.. and Serena.. she is the stupidest girl on the face of the planet.. Why the hell can't she just tell her friends and family she wants to know her father? Holy unnecessary drams!!!!

New couple alert and show talks

2009-09-23T06:48:00.000-07:00

Hayden likes her men older.. She was spotted with Entourage's Kevin Connolly at the HBO Emmys party. Hayden's 20, Kevin's 35, but kind of a shorty type of guy no? Hey whatever floats your boat...

oh and Heroes.. I mean I was really looking forward to watching the season opener.. IT WAS SO SLOW AND BORING!!!!! B O R I N G!!!!!!! Not sure if I'm going to continue watching that one..

90210.. if those people would just talk to each other already they would know that all the stupidity they're going trough is all fake. Can't they just come up with new drama for the new season like most shows?

Melrose.. started off alright killing good old Sydney right off the bat. All the actors were pretty good except for Ashley Simpson (why couldn't they just get a real actress for that?) but the second I was already annoyed of the newly engaged couple, they already had 8 fights in two shows, the blonde being gay, not gay, gay, not gay, mean, boyfriend/fiancé stealer.. enough already you only had 2 episodes for crying out loud! Probably going to ditch that one..

As for shows to watch so far...

Glee (its really good especially if you're into 90's music)

Vampire Diaries (is a good mix of Twilight and True Blood combined)

America's Next Top Model (5'7s y'all)

How I Met Your Mother (Still my fav! NPH is SO funny)

The Office (still funny and weird)

still waiting for Grey's, Private Practice, CSI Las Vegas, One Tree Hill (missed it), Flash Forward (might be interesting, its from the creators of Lost), Lost not sure when that starts again and perhaps The Beautiful Life (model show with Micha Barton.. eh?)

Yes I watch everything.

It's Not What You Wear Its How You Wear it.

Baby News

2009-09-23T06:45:00.000-07:00

After several years of marriage, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. had their baby girl and named her Charlotte Grace Prinze. Just thinking about names...

Who checks Facebook while robbing someone's house?

2009-09-22T07:00:00.000-07:00

The thief decided to take a break during his break-in and figured he'd check his Facebook account using the computer in the victim's house. That's stupid enough but the crook didn't even bother to log out of the site before leaving the house. The investigation was relatively straightforward, cops found the guy through a friend, discovered an aquaintance who the guy asked to be part of the burglary, and tracked the guy down himself. He's now in custody on $10,000 bail and is facing up to 10 years in prison if he's convicted for the crime..

Just Gross!

2009-09-22T06:55:00.001-07:00

A Florida woman was sentenced Monday to a year and a day for keeping her dead mother's body in a bedroom... get this.. for years while collecting more than $230,000 in pension benefits. There were no signs of foul play, so her mother just died and she left her there to collect money.. Gross, gross, gross and then gag!

Ever since I've heard of him he's been the butt of all my jokes

2009-09-22T06:50:00.000-07:00

The Hoff was taken to emerg via the ambulance by mistake. Apparently they said he was drunk, but his rep said, no he wasn't drunk he was just high on pain meds. Really? They couldn't tell that before they wheeled him off on a stretcher and drove to the hospital?

Spice Girls Reunite Again!

2009-09-22T06:46:00.000-07:00

Friends first and foremost the Spice Girls may be working on reuniting. Geri Halliwell sparked rumors of a reunion after she went on tv and admitted there's a "possibility" they may be working on reuniting, which means they're hanging out again so why not make some more money and dance around on stage like they're 16 all over again.. I mean if I could do it I would!

Fatty McFatty

2009-09-22T06:43:00.000-07:00

Last night I had a dream more like a nightmare that my significant other became obese, the thing was all I could see was his body and no face, not even sure it was my current hubs but that was creepy.. Kind of like K-fed. Look at him! I mean he was disgusting before he was fat, and now he's just a Fatty McFatty living off of Brit Brit's money.. ew!

I know, its SO teen but seriously I love, love, love it!!

2009-09-22T06:37:00.000-07:00

I can't even tell you the number of times I've read the Twilight Series but while I fell in love with it I believe I conceived so it may have some relevance to how it affects me. Anyway here are some behind the scenes photos of New Moon coming out November 20!!!! The first film was a bit low-budg, but I'm sure New Moon will be so much better considering the amount of money the first one made as well as switching out the directors. And the first pick: That's what I want to be doing! MOVIE MAKE-UP!!

Sad :(

2009-09-22T06:33:00.000-07:00

Patrick Swayze will always be the coolest bad ass because of Dirty Dancing... Who's going to carry us over the water like this now? His close friends and family say the one thing Patrick regretted in his life was not having children. Apparently he was desperate to become a father and was devastated when his wife Lisa had a miscarriage. She lost the baby three months into the pregnancy, and while they kept trying for another baby, it never happened. :(

2009-09-21T07:18:00.000-07:00

So does anyone know where I can buy this stuff in Toronto without having to purchase online? I still haven't merged over to the internet world of buying clothes because I have to try it on in order to make my purchase... so... really where can I try these?

I heart Johnny and Johnny's french fries!

2009-09-21T07:15:00.000-07:00

I collected these images of Johnny from this past July.. That's all he needs a white shirt and jeans! OH MY! He is definitely still my dreamboat of hunkiness! The Johnny's french fries is only in reference to my never ending craving.. maybe there's a reason! huh?

Gossip Girl!

2009-09-21T07:14:00.001-07:00

Gossip Girl is back on the air! Blake looks lovely in her red gown but Leighton.. not sure about those knotted shoulder pads.. she looks a little Star Wars no?

I just miss him!

2009-09-21T07:13:00.000-07:00

Does anyone believe in marriage vows anymore?

2009-05-13T17:25:00.000-07:00

I am saddened by this. I truly do not know the whole story but why can't a family stay together. I get it, it was hard, they have 8 kids for crying out loud. But so many people before our time had large families including my mother-in-law and her 10 siblings. This wasn't even a question, there were raised to love, cherish and respect FAMILY! Can we get back there?

Trekky?

2009-05-13T17:20:00.000-07:00

Amongst all the madness I was able to watch Star Trek. And I gotta tell you, I am not, absolutely not a Star Trek geek. There were a few in the theatre.. actually it was packed with nerds. One even said "Do you recon that there will be a few females here tonight to endure this ever so amazing adventure?" I just started laughing.. I know, I know its mean... but HILARIOUS! Anyway its was honestly action packed, had humour and Captain Kirk was super hot! Way to go Star Trek, I bet the true die hard fans hated it.. whatever go watch it, its good.. Tuesday's its $5.. and I just heard weekend matinées are $6.

Oh how I miss you blog!

2009-05-13T17:11:00.001-07:00

I've started a new job and have been trying to hard to keep up with my freelance personal jobs which I accepted way before I started my full-time position. All of a sudden they all came crashing down on me while I started my first week and now continuing into my second. I love my new job but feel I am falling short because I'm super exhausted. But there's nothing I can't do.. This busy'ness is only temporary, and once I can get them done and out of my hair I can begin to relax and have fun!

A third couple in our group just got married. Been feeling the 'growing up' portion of my life lately. Its good, I am happy being 30. It doesn't scare me like I thought it would. I'm ready for the next chapter.. And in this chapter I hope to get a children's book done... I think its totally possible!

Bandit's under my legs right now. He only does this when its going to rain.. so everyone have a great night sleeping to the comforting sounds of rain!!

Keep on inspiring!!!

Pregnant and Fabulous!

2009-04-23T07:22:00.001-07:00

My friend Afiya Francisco is making a name for herself. You may have seen her on Entertainment Tonight Canada or even City Line. She's gone freelance stylist and has a really great sense of style.. Check her out on Steven and Chris at http://www.cbc.ca/stevenandchris/includes/video.html Go to: Episode 109, fast forward to about 31:30 for some really great pregnancy styling!

Did she really carry twins?

2009-04-23T07:09:00.000-07:00

Check out the most recent photo of Jennifer Lopez. She is 39 just had twins last year and looks like this. Money or not you still have to work out and eat properly to get back and better to what you look like. She is stunning! Such a baby bearing inspiration!

Toronto Alternative Fashion Week

Click on image to see a larger version.
Last night I went to support a friend of mine who was modelling in the show. Her friend Courtney and her design partner featured their line Cherry Blossom. I prefer this show to Toronto Fashion Week just because its more organic, more creative. I missed the finale show where there were 6 dancing polar bears. I had so much fun and the clothes were fantastic! I did also get to see Sonny the winner of Project Runway Canada season 2!

Grey Gardens

2009-04-23T06:38:00.000-07:00

Click on image to see a larger version.
This property has a very interesting history. It was once owned by the first aunt and first cousin of Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onasis. Big Edie and Little Edie are remembered for their crazy eccentric bling, bling lives. They were from Park Avenue and they often vacationed in the Hamptons where they ended up turning their lives into complete ghetto and poverty. The story of how they went from riches to rags is unbelieveable. They ended up living with flea infested cats, racoons and no running water. The house was in such bad shape that in 1979 they had to sell it. No one not even the real estate agents wanted to go inside. They smell was so foul but ended up selling to former Washington Post Exec Editor for $220,000 which was a steal even for the 70s for this property which is worth in the tens of millions now. HBO did a movie on it starring Jessica Lange and Drew Barrymore here's the trailer. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tW5ryhrzYC4 unfortunately I missed it but I'm definitely going to search for a copy on the internet.

Domino inspires

2009-04-23T06:30:00.001-07:00

I absolutely love these timeless yet contemporary dining room chairs. Featured in Domino magazine. I want white chairs but am afraid that they'll get dirty, not vintage and super cute, but just dirty so I think this is a great idea! I just have to find them in Toronto. Anyone know where I can find these? They're a MUST-HAVE JILL ITEM!!!

Craving of the week

2009-04-23T06:26:00.000-07:00

I bought the bananas and have been waiting all week for them to ripen so I can make a loaf of chocolate chip banana bread. Homemade out of 100% love. Bake at home, you can control the amount of sugar and butter that goes into baked goods. That way you can feel like you're doing your body good instead of feeling guilty for your guilty pleasures... yum! banana bread here I come!

Vintage

2009-04-23T06:23:00.000-07:00

69 Vintage just opened up another store called 69 by the Pound. They're pretty good at stocking up their pieces and aren't ridiculously over priced for used goods. Check it out if your in the Roncesvalles area.

GG fashion inspiration

2009-04-20T08:54:00.000-07:00

Taylor Momsen of Gossip Girl has great style! I personally love the green dress! She had a total 360º turn around since she first appeared on the show. I wonder who styles her?

Baby News!

2009-04-20T08:53:00.000-07:00

Ellen Pompeo and her hubby are expecting their first child! Congratulations! I wonder if they'll write it into Grey's?

Travelling seems scary!

2009-04-20T08:46:00.000-07:00

The Canadian airline was high jacked when a lone gunman with "mental challenges" broke through security and got on the plane as it was preparing for take off. A flight attendant bribed the man to accept cash and belongings in exchange for their freedom. 159 passengers and two crew members were able to escape CanJet Airlines flight 918 after less than an hour of captivity.

First Conquest shuts down leaving hundreds screwed.. now a high jacked plane.. and the prices are the lowest they've been in years... I love the hot sun but it seems a bit too eerie to go down south.. well at least for now.

Broken up?

2009-04-20T08:42:00.000-07:00

Word on the street is that these two have broken up. I didn't really believe it until I saw that Ciara ft. Justin video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zTYT-SiZeFo Its intense! Isn't she like 19? I don't know how old stars are these days. Anyway, I also got the vibe when Justin was on Oprah talking about how he's not ready to get married and stuff.. hmmm maybe its real. Watch the video! its hot!

what 40 million buys you in NY

2009-04-15T06:11:00.000-07:00

Here are the interior photos of Madonna's new 6 story, 40 million dollar townhome in the upper east side of Manhattan. Its alright, but 40 million? really? Even if I had it I don't think I'd buy that. She probably just told the old lady who was still living there to leave all her stuff and move out the next day if she paid her 40 million dollars! That's insane!

Just keeps on looking better

Scarlett Johansson remains to be one of my fav's. She decided to write an article for the Huffington Post responding to her new look after having dropped a significant amount of weight. Here's what she wrote.

“Since dedicating myself to getting into "superhero shape," several articles regarding my weight have been brought to my attention. Claims have been made that I've been on a strict workout routine regulated by co-stars, whipped into shape by trainers I've never met, eating sprouted grains I can't pronounce and ultimately losing 14 pounds off my 5'3" frame. Losing 14 pounds out of necessity in order to live a healthier life is a huge victory. I'm a petite person to begin with, so the idea of my losing this amount of weight is utter lunacy. If I were to lose 14 pounds, I'd have to part with both arms. And a foot. I'm frustrated with the irresponsibility of tabloid media who sell the public ideas about what we should look like and how we should get there.”

Scarlett then continues to write about women and eating disorders. She says, “How are we supposed to view articles highlighting celebrity cellulite and not sulk in the mirror, imagining a big red arrow pointing to various parts of our bodies? The media has packaged for us an unhealthy idea that one must suffer loss, be in the middle of a nervous breakdown, feel pressure from friends or coworkers, battle divorce or have a bitter dispute with an ex in order to get into acceptable bikini shape.”

She's just mad cool!

The famous British clothing shop is coming to New York! This is very exiciting! Kate Moss is one of the major designers and its affordable like H&M! This is great news in terms of fashion! I just hope it stays in New York and doesn't come to T-Dot, that way I'm not wearing what every other girl is wearing. I hate that! I really do.

Odd News

2009-04-07T14:44:00.000-07:00

A skeleton of a German retiree was found in a tree 30 years later. This man tied himself to the top of a tree and shot himself to death but no one has seen him up there until now? The German police said a 69 year old man disappeared in 1980 and was classified as missing. An 18-year-old hiker found a skeleton 11 meters up on a spruce tree. Isn't this so "A Nightmare Before Christmas"? Imagine you were walking and found a skeleton in a tree its so odd...

My very exciting 2009 project!

2009-04-06T12:45:00.000-07:00

This summer I have the pleasure of redecorating my aunts condo. My cousin Didi and I are going to take her condo and her budget and doing a complete make over with 100% pure trust to make my aunts condo her dream home. We're all so very excited. Below are just a few ideas I was thinking. She loves earth tones, but seeing that she's a single lady I want to bring some feminine touches to the decor. Oh I can't wait this is going to be so much fun!

Here are some fabulous neutral outfits worn by my two favourite style icons. They both have neutral dresses with black leggings. They also both like to pick out their own clothes, I'm sure that still means they have stylists, which is awesome by the way but I think they still put the outfits together, accessories their own and decide what they're doing with their hair... loves...

30-Rock

2009-04-06T12:15:00.000-07:00

Michelle Obama is to appear on 30-Rock. If you watch all the prime time shows like me this should be pretty interesting. I wonder if she'd be funny.. or if they'll just use her for comic relief.. I'm sure she's smart and will find away to make herself work on the show the way she wants to. She's such an inspiration, waking up every morning at 4:30am to work out so that she can have the energy to live her life without being over tired or aging her body! I like her!

NKOTB and the Jabbawokeez!

The Jabbawokeez are on tour with the New Kids on the Block and they're even bringing the tour back to Toronto this summer in June! Their show is apparently insane not being some 5-10 minute show but rather an entire performance! Filipino! Filipino! (singing the Black Eyed Peas tune) can you hear it?

Teen Show news

2009-04-01T09:39:00.000-07:00

Word on the street is that the second season of 90210 is going to change drastically from the first. One of the major changes is that season two will have a new cast with the first cast being secondary. I was just saying to a friend of mine, that the show has become a lot better from when it first started. Now they're going to change it again? We'll see if it works..

some jill work/inspiration...

2009-04-01T09:29:00.000-07:00

Currently working on a few small projects at a time to save me from utter bordom, I've put one of my works up to get some input.. Its always up to the client to decide what is best for them but do you like with stems or without? I've illustrated the cupcakes and used a curly font to best suit this company.. I actually love to illustrate.

Hills to the City

2009-04-01T09:25:00.000-07:00

Whitney Port is now saying she just wants to live a normal life. She doesn't like the constant video taping and that she's the main attraction. Well then move over Whitney, I'll be glad to jump on in take your job at DVF, take the giant paycheck and be the star that puts that Olivia Palermo person in her place. Sources say they really don't like each other in real life and she talks to Whit like she's a pet project. Its kind of funny on the show but if its real, which I have a hard time differentiating then that girl is EVIL!

Oprah's trying

2009-04-01T09:22:00.000-07:00

Who knows what the heck is going on with these two, but this is the first time I'm actually interested.. Oprah is trying to get these two on her show to talk about their business. Sources say Oprah has been secretly talking to Rihanna, since late Feburary on a regular basis. Oprah also reportedly begged Riri not to take Chris back... They're young let them move on!

Destiny's Child round 6000

2009-04-01T09:18:00.000-07:00

Are you ready for more crazy screaming and annoying ad libs that cover the rest of the group? Apparently Destiny's Child is back for more, but not by choice that is. They owe their label, Columbia Records one more album. There is no set date as yet, but they're saying probably around 2011.

Sadly even Starbucks being affected

2009-04-01T08:56:00.000-07:00

The first closure of a Canadian Starbucks has happened today in Richmond B.C. Because the location itself was under-performing the coffee retailer decided to close. They were only given a 5 day notice. People please don't stop going to Starbucks its my comfort drink.. I go whenever I'm having a bad day!

Starbucks plans on closing 100 coffee shops outside the U.S. They haven't revealed which locations but its going down...

Marriage advice from Ashton

2009-03-30T08:22:00.000-07:00

Ashton Kutcher has used his twitter to offer advice on marriage from his experience. And some of the things he says are right on point! I'm actually surprised of how mature he's taking his marriage. Maybe marrying an older woman has made him smarter.

"For me it's about relearning that supporting my wife isn't about providing $ and home, it's about supporting her desires, need and emotions."

"Greatest lesson in my marriage: Don't try to solve her problems, just listen, love and be supportive. This is the opposite of male nature."

Martha to be cancelled in Canada

2009-03-30T08:20:00.000-07:00

It has been announced that we won't be getting the Martha Stewart show, well new shows anymore which really sucks because I've been watching it lately and she really has the best recipes for all kinds of foods and has celebs even come on to show their favourite recipes.. I can always find her online but its just not the same. Look at her awesome posse! a furry chow chow and a french bulldog! I want those dogs!!!!! Photo from marthastewart.com

Affairs in the air...

2009-03-26T11:02:00.000-07:00

Affair #2 according to Star magazine, Sean Penn was spotted making out with Natalie Portman. "They went to a bank of elevators that only goes to the spa or to the private rooms," an eyewitness tells Star. " They came back about 45 minutes later, and that's when I saw them making out."

"There's a door outside of the hotel's Tower Bar that has a bridge to the terrace, so it's semi-private," The girl who saw says. " I used that path to get to the restroom, and when I came back, I had to go through some curtains — and that's when I interrupted Sean and Natalie! When they saw me they were startled and quickly composed themselves."

Really Natalie? Sean Penn? Naughty!

How dumb are you?

Why I love Teen drama's!

2009-03-25T09:13:00.000-07:00

ONE TREE HILL has been around since the OC. And this is where the sharing really happens.. dated, married, divorced, dated some more, dated new cast members...

GOSSIP GIRL There was already cheating when the show begun. The very first episode there was a flash back of the boy cheating on his girlfriend with her best friend. Its so messed up but so fun to watch.

90210 This show is still new but there is already some swappage happening. Ethan the football player has already dated the two most popular girls in the school.. but in real life dating another one of them.. and the rest we'll just have to watch and follow along..

Raptor's fans

2009-03-25T09:07:00.000-07:00

I think its rather odd that we didn't get this onto the Toronto news circuit until now.. This happened last summer when Chris Bosh played in the Olympics. If you haven't heard, Bosh, 24 dumped her girlfriend 28, when she was 7 months pregnant. Apparently, they were trying to have a baby and he even paid for her fertility drugs. Does she really need fertility at 28? She's now calling him a deadbeat dad. His only comment was that he loves his baby girl and will be fighting a custody battle for her. The ex wants full custody and child support.. Why do you think this always happens to famous athletes? I hope everything works out good for their child!

Tights aren't over yet!

2009-03-25T09:06:00.000-07:00

Vera Wang says she loves black tights and owns like 20 pairs. They still go with everything and anyone of any age can wear them as long as they are worn appropriately which means... Keep the booty hidden at all times! They aren't pants!

Not so hot
