Britney Spears unveils first fashion line for school girls

Pop princess Britney Spears is joining the growing club of celebrities-turned-designers, launching her own fashion collection that targets the schoolgirl crowd.
Spears, 28, has designed her first collection of clothing and accessories for the Iconix Brand Group Inc's Candie's brand for which she has been the face for the past three seasons.


In an interview with InStyle.com, Spears explains how she came up with the ideas for the line. "First, I met with the Candie's designers and told them what my favorite styles are. Then, we sketched the items together," she explained. "I loved it when I saw the samples for the first time."
"I used a lot of studs and lace, because I wanted to make the clothes cool and edgy yet girly. I also love jeans, so I had to make sure there were some great pairs in the collection. And I love jewelry so there are a lot of fun pieces," she continued. "There are great necklaces and big earrings."


"Designing was a really fun, new way for me to express my creativity and I really wanted to create something by me for my fans," Spears said in a statement.
She said the collection, inspired by her favorite music and movies, as a mixture of day and evening looks, ranging from jeans to little black dresses.

Jennifer Hudson broke her silence and spoke publicly about the 2008 murder of her mother, brother and Nephew for the first time.

On last night's episode of VH1's "Behind the Music,"Jennifer Hudson revealed how she handled the emotional pain of the murders. Jennifer said, "I'd pray when I get up in the morning, and pray before I lay down at night," Hudson said of how she's managed to stay strong. "If I didn't, I'd wake up depressed."
The one-time "American Idol" contestant, who went on to win an Academy Award three years ago for a supporting role in her feature debut "Dreamgirls," said the 2008 triple-slaying was "surreal."
The bodies of Hudson's 57-year-old mother Darnell Donerson and 29-year-old brother Jason Hudson were discovered inside the home where Hudson grew up in Chicago. Her 7-year-old nephew Julian King was later found dead in a vehicle.
All three had been shot. William Balfour, the estranged husband of Hudson's sister Julia, has been charged with the murders.


Not long after the murder, Hudson got engaged to David Otunga which whom she had a son last August. Her debut self-titled album went on to win a Grammy award.

The Movie Twilight Saga: Eclipse...

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse movie clip is courtesy of Summit Entertainment.
The third Twilight flick, "Eclipse," hits theaters on Wednesday. The film is popular enough to be review-proof, but that hasn't stopped the nation's critics from chiming in with their thoughts on whether "Eclipse" is worth squealing over.
Most critics can't help comparing "Eclipse" to the saga's first two flicks, "Twilight" (2008) and "New Moon" (2009). The Hollywood Reporter's Kirk Honeycutt was impressed with the third film, writing, "the teen vampire series finally hits its stride with an entertaining mix of romance and action fantasy."

Einglish Actress Emma Watson Stars in Music Video Boyfriend,George Craig

Emma Watson has lent her acting talents and star power to her recent constant companion and "friend" : model and musician George Craig.

The "Harry Potter" actress stars in the new video for Craig's band One Night Only. It's for his song "Say You Don't Want It," and -- get this -- in the video, Watson and Craig both star as dogs:
Emma Watson is best known for playing the character of Hermione Granger in the popular Harry Potter film franchise. She has found herself in yet another starring role, but this time it is in a music video for her boyfriend’s One Night Only band. The 20-year-old actress’ boyfriend, rock musician George Craig, asked her to star in his band’s music video for “Say You Don’t Want It,” and she gladly obliged.
In a BBC1 interview with the pair, Watson gamely responded to the question of whether she and Craig would be taking on a couple-nickname like "Brangelina" or "Speidi." She said she wouldn't object to "Wataig," but Craig demurred. "Just call us by our real names," he said. "That'd be fine!"
However, it is eventually revealed that Craig and Watson are dogs, which they learn when they look at their reflection in the mirror. Watson addressed her contribution to One Night Only’s video, saying, “It’s kind of an ode to Lady and the Tramp, George is Tramp and I’m Lady. When I was in the states, George was taking me through a lot of his music as he was recording it.”
The actress complimented her boyfriend’s musical ability during an interview with the U.K.’s Radio 1, saying, “I couldn’t believe [how good the music was]. I’m a big fan. Everything he did was amazing.”

'Most Powerful' Celebrity : Oprah Winfrey Named 'Most Powerful' Celeb

OPRAH Winfrey has been named the world’s most powerful celebrity.
This year, Oprah Winfrey is back atop the list for the fourth time.
The TV star — who fronts The Oprah Winfrey Show and is the president of media company Harpo Productions — has topped the annual Most Powerful Celebrity poll conducted by Forbes magazine, knocking Angelina Jolie off the top spot with earnings of $315 million last year.


Winfrey was followed by singer Beyonce Knowles, "Avatar" director James Cameron, newcomer Lady Gaga and disgraced golfer Tiger Woods.
The Forbes Most Powerful Celebrity list looks at wealth, TV/radio popularity, press rank, web rank and social status — with even Twitter followers being taken into consideration.
The 2010 poll placed Twilight star Robert Pattinson on the list for the first time, in 50th position following the success of the vampire movies, and after earning $17 million last year.
Despite a tumultuous year in her personal life, Oscar-winning actress Sandra Bullock was placed eighth in the poll after pocketing $56 million in the past 12 months. She was just behind golfer Tiger Woods, who was placed fifth, Britney Spears, sixth, and rock band U2 — consisting of Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr. — who were placed seventh.

Actress Megan Fox and Brian Austin Green get married

Megan Fox's publicist confirmed Tuesday the actress married her longtime beau, actor Brian Austin Green, in Hawaii during the weekend.

The 24-year-old sex symbol wed her longtime boyfriend, Brian Austin Green, 36, in Hawaii June 24, according to their reps. Green's 8-year-old son, Kassius, attended the small, private ceremony held at the Four Seasons hotel on Hawaii's Big Island.
It is the first marriage for both Green and Fox, who recently go re-engaged at the same hotel on June 1. Though some reports said they had called off their first engagement four years ago, Fox told reporters earlier this month that they'd been engaged this whole time. She also, however, swore that she and Green wouldn't get married for "years."
The couple, who have tattoos of each other's names and share custody of a potbellied pig, dogs, two cats, two birds and a squirrel, first met in 2004 on the set of "Hope & Faith" and have dated on and off ever since. Fox has been vocal about her preference for older men. "Boys in their 20s are a waste of time," she explained to Elle. "They have nothing to offer conversationally. They're immature. I feel like I have a better shot with someone in his 30s."

Sandra Bullock : Actress Sandra Bullock's divorce from Jesse James is final

Sandra Bullock and love rat Jesse James have finalised their divorce, marking the end of their five year marriage.
The 45-year-old actress first filed for divorce in April, stating that the couple's nearly five-year marriage had become "insupportable" following reports of infidelity by James.


The reason for the split was citied as a 'discord or conflict of personalities' as the official divorce settlement allows Bullock to complete the adopting of her son Louis as a single parent.
Sandra adopted the child from New Orleans with Jesse before he was outed as a cheat for starting an 11 month affair with heavily tattooed model Michelle 'Bombshell' McGee.
Jesse recently broke his silence on their split claiming: "There is only one person to blame for this whole situation, and that is me. It's because of my poor judgment that I deserve everything bad that is coming my way."

U.S singer Lady Gaga Debuts New Song

Lady GaGa debuted a new song called You And I at Elton John’s White Tie and Tiara ball last week.
"This is a brand-new record that no one's ever heard before ... ever," she said while seated at one of her signature deconstructed pianos and wearing a bedazzled black bra and panties with black boots. "And I've never, ever played it live, ever."


On her Twitter, she described "You and I" as a "new song ... written in NY on the piano I grew up on."
She wasn't kidding about the song having a rock edge, as the tune eschewed most of her dance flavor, right down to a rollicking barrelhouse piano solo, during which she stood up on the piano bench and bashed out some John-worthy runs on the black and whites. She finished the tune crouched on the bench, wailing, "You and I," while pumping her fist, before giving it a big finish that included kicking a heel up on the keyboard and lying across the piano bench with her head on the ground.


Gaga also took the stage in a wheelchair with her chest covered in fake blood and accompanied by an oiled-up male dancer for a run through "Alejandro," and she performed her ballad "Speechless." During the latter, John came out and joined her for a dueling-pianos showdown, trading off verses on the tune dedicated to Gaga's dad and then reprising their Grammys duet with a snippet of his hit "Your Song," during which he improvised the line, "I hope you don't mind that I wrote down in words/ How wonderful life is with Gaga in the world."

BET Awards 2010:BET Awards to honor Prince

June 15 /PRNewswire/ Dearly Beloved on June 27 we will gather at the Shrine Auditorium and mark the 10 year anniversary of the hottest award show in cable television, the BET AWARDS. This year, BET will honor the musical legacy and genius that is Prince as the recipient of the Lifetime Achievement Award, an honor bestowed to the most significant and influential individuals in music history.

The 52-year-old Minneapolis native was feted Sunday night at the BET Awards in the Los Angeles with an all-female musical tribute.

In a purple button-up, black slacks and vest, Trey sang his recent hit "Yo Side of the Bed" atop a stage bathed in purple lights. The track's video, featuring Keri Hilson as a military officer and Trey as her mourning husband after she's killed in the line of duty, played in the background on large screens. During the performance, Trey gave a shout-out to all who've lost a special someone.

Janelle Monae offered an energetic take on "Let's Go Crazy." Jazz musician Esperanza Spalding accompanied herself on standup bass for "If I Was Your Girlfriend." Alicia Keys started behind the piano, then climbed on top of it, when she sang "Adore," and Patti LaBelle kicked off her shoes to give her all to "Purple Rain."

The singer then launched into the first verse of Prince's 1984 classic "Purple Rain" from the film of the same name. As Trey strained to hit falsetto notes almost on his knees, the camera cut to Prince himself seated in the audience looking on.

"We are humbled that Prince will be our lifetime achievement award recipient," said Stephen G. Hill, President of Programming, Music and Specials. "Genre smasher, virtuoso musician, one of the most emotional singers of all time; words are too weak to describe just what he means to our culture. We have a different kind of tribute planned for him as his unique style deserves a unique honor. Prince is dynamic. Prince is genius. Prince is music."

Earlier in the evening, the Virginia native won the award for Best Male R&B Artist and brought his mother onstage with him to accept his trophy. Following the awards show, BET will debut Trey's documentary "My Moment," which follows the singer during Jay-Z's recent Blueprint 3 Tour.

Prince started recording in 1977 and has 10 platinum albums and 30 Top 40 singles to his name.

Robert Pattinson - Robert Pattinson says Kristen Stewart "A Real Woman"

ROBERT Pattinson says Kristen Stewart became a “real woman” while filming the third Twilight movie, Eclipse.

The 'Twilight Saga' actor - who stars as vampire Edward Cullen opposite his rumoured girlfriend, who plays Bella Swan in the movie franchise - enjoys seeing how much the 20-year-old screen beauty has changed since filming began and claims they are so close, they no longer need to communicate verbally.
“What I especially like about her is that she’s like me, not dizzy from fans and press attention,” he told the Russian edition of Grazia magazine.
"We understand each other without the words. I can tell Kristen about all my problems. But honestly I don't have to. because she's in same position as I am."
For a minute in the interview Rob begins to win us over, talking about Kristen's sincerity as one of the things he loves best about her: "Kristen really cares about me and I'm very grateful for this. She's the most honest and genuine person I've ever met. She always listens and gives good advice regardless of her own interests."
But then he throws us off, saying that he doesn't think love lasts forever: "The idea seems strange to me," Pattinson said. "It's so boring to spend your whole life with the same person." Does Kristen know your feelings about this?! Nothing like learning it from a foreign magazine interview!
Despite his feelings for Kristen, Robert doesn't believe in eternal love.

Fans around the world marks the first anniversary of Michael Jackson's death

A year after Michael Jackson's death caused a worldwide outpouring of shock, tears and tributes, the anniversary of his passing was being marked Friday on a quieter scale, as fans remembered their fallen King of Pop with vigils, prayer and, of course, music.


"Michael has just always been a part of my life," the 40-year-old Thomas, who has a tattoo of Jackson's dancing feet on her left wrist, said Thursday night. "I'm just hoping to embrace the fans from everywhere."Friday, DJ Jon Quick was to spin Jackson tunes at the club Taj in Manhattan for a festive affair.
Jackson died on June 25, 2009, at age 50 as he was preparing for a series of comeback concerts in London. Dr. Conrad Murray is charged with involuntary manslaughter in Jackson's death for administering the powerful anesthetic propofol to Jackson to help the pop star sleep.


At Jackson's final resting place at Forest Lawn in Glendale. Calif., hundreds of fans, some weeping, filed past barricades to get close to the mausoleum where Jackson is interred Friday morning. Some carried bouquets, others were armed with cameras to document the moment.
"We are really honored to have played a part in launching Michael's musical career and to serve as a gathering place for people to come and celebrate his lifetime of achievement," said Jonelle Procope, Apollo president and CEO.


Yugi Aoki, 33, of Tokyo, came with 13 other Japanese fans of the pop star. They were all wearing sparkling gloves and fedora hats, one of Jackson's signature looks. Aoki smiled as he described how Jackson influenced him: "Michael Jackson changed myself. We love his dancing and songs."
Jackson's family members were expected to arrive at the cemetery later in the day, said his brother, Randy Jackson.

Lil' Blonde Darling: Farrah Fawcett!

 
Blonde Beauty Icon Farrah Fawcett
1947-2009

Today is the one year anniversary of Farrah Fawcett's untimely death. What better way to pay my respects than to celebrate her contribution to the wonderful world of haircare and glamOUR?! She was discovered in 1968, during her sophomore year at college, when a Hollywood publicist saw her photo in a "Ten Most Beautiful Coeds" pictorial in Cashbox magazine. She quickly moved from Texas to LA and began a modeling career, appearing in numerous TV commercials and print ads including Noxzema shaving cream, Wella Balsam shampoo and the 1975 Mercury Cougar. She quickly began accepting acting roles, playing supporting roles on TV shows like I Dream of Jeannie and The Six Million Dollar Man (which starred her then husband Lee Majors).

She is of course most fondly remembered for her role as the glamorous private detective Jill Munroe on Charlie's Angels. Jill was the sporty and athletic Angel, and spent most episodes running around LA in tight t-shirts, no bra with very....er.....protrusive nipples! Farrah's nipples caused such a scandal on network television that the wardrobe department was instructed to cover them with tape. Even more popular than her perky nips was her iconic feathered hairstyle, which women across the world copied en masse. In years prior, women's hairstyles were either meticulously styled and shellacked with hairspray or ironed stick straight and parted down the middle. When Farrah appeared on the scene, there were wings and layers and  "effortless" movement; it always seemed like she had a high powered fan pointed at her at all times!

Farrah shocked the world (and producer Aaron Spelling) when she abruptly quit the series after only one season. An intense legal battle ensued and as part of her settlement, Farrah was forced to return for six guest appearances over seasons three and four of the series. She went on to star in films and TV movies of the week, but she will ALWAYS be Jill to me!

Actress Sandra Bullock’s Surprise Appearance at Nashville Rising Concert!

Hollywood star Sandra Bullock was a surprise addition to the bill at a charity gig when the actress took to the stage with a guitar to help raise money.
The Oscar winning-actress, who has only recently begun a return to public life following revelations of her husband Jesse James’ affair with tattoo model Michelle ‘Bombshell’ McGee, joked with crowds at the charity event at the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee after learning the show had raised over $2 million.


The line-up featured big-name stars including Miley Cyrus, Taylor Swift, LeAnn Rimes and Carrie Underwood, but fans were stunned when Hollywood actress Bullock stepped on to the stage.
Walking onto the stage holding an acoustic guitar, Sandra, who was there to introduce singer Faith Hill – told the crowd, “When they told me how much you all contributed, I realised I had to do more than be funny.
Armed with an acoustic guitar, Bullock told the crowd, "I'm going to bring the house down. And I'm going to do it Nashville style!"
She then picked out the first few notes of Deep Purple's Smoke on The Water, before giving up with the admission, "I can't play..."
concert also featured a brief appearance from another Hollywood star, Reese Witherspoon, who hails from New Orleans, Louisiana, taped a video message which was played at the show, in which she told the audience, "(In Nashville) we get together and take care of each other."
The money raised by the event was donated to victims of flooding in Tennessee.

Angelina Jolie Threats Jennifer Aniston to stay away from Her Kids

ANGELINA Jolie has told Jennifer Aniston to stay away from her kids!

According to American tabloid the National Enquirer, the 35-year-old actress has angrily urged Aniston to stay away from her six children's lives.
“Angie told Brad that it was one thing for him to hang out with ‘That woman’,” a source said, “but it would be quite another if he let her see the children.
“The last thing she wants is Jen trying to act like some kind of surrogate mother to her six kids. She cannot imagine anything more distressing — and at the same time she does not want any of them getting confused about what is happening to their family.
rican tabloid claimed Jolie launched the warning because Pitt reportedly has resumed his "totally innocent" relationship with Aniston. A source told the tabloid, "Angie told Brad that it was one thing for him to hang out with 'That woman'. But it would be quite another if he let her see the children."
"Angie doesn't want the kids, and particularly the ones who are too young to understand, like 4-year-old Shiloh, why Brad is spending time with another woman." The site mentioned that Jolie didn't ban Pitt from meeting Aniston as long as he was not with the kids.
The source said, "As usual, Brad explained to her that his friendship with Jen is totally innocent and all about business. She told him that's fine and she accepts there is nothing she can do about it."


“But she said the kids might not be so understanding and might even get upset that dad was spending so much time with another woman who happens to be his ex-wife.
“Now, Angie has flat out banned him from seeing Jen when he’s with the children. Other than that, she said, what he does on his own time is his own business.”
Recent reports claimed Jolie, 35, is planning to adopt an orphan from Haiti following a recent trip to the Caribbean country.

Filming Will Create Jobs and Traffic : 'Transformers 3'

Rich Moskal, director of the Chicago Film Office, talks about plans for closing city streets and landmarks for the filming of “Transformers 3."


“Transformers 3” — the sci-fi action thriller filming in Chicago this summer — will pump $20 million into the local economy and create 200 jobs.
It's also going to create a lot of traffic, because crews will be filming in the streets.
OEMC Executive Director Jose Santiago said the closures on LaSalle Street (8 p.m. July 9 to 5 a.m. July 12), the Michigan Avenue bridge (8 p.m. July 16 to 5 a.m. July 19) and Upper Wacker Drive (9 p.m. July 18 to 5 a.m. July 22) will have the most impact on traffic. He added that most of the movie's filming in Chicago will take place during daylight.
“It's an ambitious production … but we and the producers are committed to mitigating the disruptions and addressing community concerns,” said Chicago Film Office Director Rich Moskal.


Little is known about the film's plot, but USA Today reports it will involve the Transformers' role in the space race between the U.S. and Russia. Bay, who considered shooting scenes from the original “Transformers” in Chicago before settling on Detroit, told USA Today the storyline will wrap up the trilogy.
"Transformers 3" is expected to open in 2011.

Vet to Mariah Carey : Mariah Carey over bills for pets' care

New York veterinarian Cindy Bressler sued Mariah Carey today in Manhattan state court for $30,000, the Associated Press reports. Bressler claims the pop star hasn't paid for the services rendered for three of her beloved dogs, Cha-Cha, Dolomite and JJ.
Bressler provided "extraordinary services" for the Jack Russell terriers — Cha-Cha, Dolomite and JJ — but the Grammy Award-winning singer paid only about $8,200 of the roughly $37,800 in charges, the lawsuit says. The bills cover a little more than a month of care.


Micheal C. Posner, Bressler's lawyer, wouldn't elaborate on the dog treatments.
Carey's spokeswoman didn't immediately respond to telephone and e-mail messages.
The pop diva has made her dogs something of characters in her multiplatinum-selling career, including in some comic video sketches made as part of an MTV.com promotion and posted on YouTube. In one, she and JJ compare the fit of their jeans: "I told you those `fat-free' dog treats weren't fat-free," she scolds.
She also regularly chronicles her dogs' doings on her Twitter feed, from Cha-Cha urinating on her dressing room floor and jumping on her last September to Dolomite stealing her underwear out of a suitcase while she was vacationing in March.

American Idol contestant Kellie Pickler Gets Engaged

People magazine reports that former American Idol contestant, Kellie Pickler, is engaged.
For Kellie Pickler, June 15 has long been "sad and hard for me," as it is the birthday of her late grandmother, Faye Pickler.
But the traditional sadness of the day turned to happiness last week, when Pickler's boyfriend, songwriter Kyle Jacobs, proposed on a Florida beach at sunset.
“It turned out to be the most amazing day of my life. My whole world changed. We both feel like we got my grandmother’s blessing.”


Pickler considers Jacobs's proposal a moment she hardly could have imagined. "I remember saying to Kyle, 'Baby it's like I'm dreaming -- but if this isn't real, I'm going to be very upset!' "
Jacobs meticulously planned the proposal, arranging a blanket, champagne and candles to be waiting as they strolled on the beach. "Afterward, we just held each other and had the most beautiful prayer," Jacobs says. "We had a little champagne and talked and laughed and cried."
The couple met through friends about 2 1/2 years ago, and Pickler, who was raised by her grandmother after her mother left and her father went to jail, says she learned how to have a healthy relationship from her new fiancé.
"We're all just happy for each other," Pickler says. "I'm sure we'll be having some girl talk and we'll share ideas. We just keep joking about how there must be something in the water!"
The couple has yet to set the date for the ceremony.

Sandra Bullock was a surprise guest at Tuesday night's Nashville Rising flood relief benefit concert in Nashville, Tennessee. Bullock, center, is seen here at the MTV Movie Awards earlier this month.


Bullock, equipped with an acoustic guitar, surprised the sell-out crowd of more than 15,000 people, "I'm going to bring the house down and I'm going to do it Nashville style!"

Tim McGraw hosted the ceremony and, according to The Tennessean, he asked his Blind Side co-star to participate. Bullock received a great response from the audience when she played the beginning of "Smoke On the Water" before she introduced McGraw’s wife, Faith Hill.

Bullock, 45, told the sell-out crowd that she would bring the house down, though by the time she finished, she came to the conclusion, “I can’t play for crap!”
Other performers at the benefit included stars with more musical experience than Bullock, such as Taylor Swift, Toby Keith, Miranda Lambert, Carrie Underwood and ZZ Top.


On stage, Bullock said, "They say a community is only as strong as its weakest link and from where I stand, I see no weak links."
The actress said about her hometown, "We get together and take care of each other."

Actress Kristen Stewart Wants 3-D Breaking Dawn

Kristen Stewart wants 'The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn' to be in 3-D.


The 20-year-old actress - who plays lead female character Bella Swan in the fantasy movie franchise - would like to see Bella experience a 3-D world when she becomes a vampire in the final film.

Kristen Stewart thinks the scene where she has to give birth may be better in 2-D.

She said: "I mean, the baby part, it's easy to joke about how weird it would be, but it wouldn't be the whole thing. It would be parts."

She told MTV News: "I'm really excited. I didn't want to read the script that was just one movie. It would have lacked so much because you couldn't cram the story into one. At least that was my opinion, so I'm really excited."

Megan Fox Wants to Play a Gay Native-American Superhero in new Movie

U.S actress Megan Fox has as interesting taste in comic books. The Jonah Hex actress has revealed that her dream role is to play the character Sarah Rainmaker, a Native-American lesbian superhero.


Met at the premiere of her latest movie, the 24-year-old actress revealed that she would love to play Sarah Rainmaker who is described as a lesbian in the comic series.
"I don't want people to protest this, but I would like to be (Sarah) Rainmaker in Gen 13 if they ever made that into a movie," she said.
"She's a Native American and I have a little bit of that blood in me," Fox said. "It would be a bit of a stretch – but if Jake Gyllenhaal can be the Prince of Persia, I think that I can do that."
Rainmaker is a fictional Apache superhero from the "Gen 13" comic series. The character has the power to manipulate weather and the movement of water with her thoughts, in addition to having an innate aptitude for combat tactics

After all, Megan Fox in a tight costume, flying through the air beating up baddies and kissing other women sounds like a winner to me.

Jennifer Garner 'Absolutely NOT Pregnant' : Rep Confirms

'Valentine's Day' star Jennifer Garner and her husband Ben Affleck are currently not expecting their third child. A rep for the 38-year-old beauty has cleared out the swirling pregnancy rumors, telling People "Jennifer is absolutely not pregnant."


First off, let's address rumors that Garner is pregnant, and why people love to talk about it. Celebitchy explains that Jennifer "makes such perfect little dimpled babies and she seems to have 'real' pregnancies, where she gets big all over and she doesn't lose the weight two seconds after giving birth," so that's why a lot of people pay attention when it looks like she's sporting a bump. Are you one of the super fans who loves her fix of Violet and Seraphina, too? If you are, then I can understand why Adorable No.
Hollywood Life, on June 2, further reported that Garner had tried to hide her baby bump by wearing a loose denim shirt which she didn't button at the bottom. An onlooker at L.A. children's boutique Build-A-Bear claimed, "She has a motherly glow to her."
Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck, who got married on June 29, 2005 in a private ceremony at the Parrot Cay resort on the Turks and Caicos Islands, welcomed their first daughter Violet Anne Affleck on December 1, the same year. Their second daughter, Seraphina Rose Elizabeth Affleck, was born on January 6, four years later.

Drunk Brunch: LA Edition!


On my recent trip to LA last week, I have have discovered the happiest place on earth! No, not Disneyland...although there are rides and it does look like it could be from a warped, alternate reality version of Frontierland. I discovered the Saddle Ranch Chop House in West Hollywood. It's like a drunk brunch dream come true; not only are there mannequins dressed like old west prostitutes as oh so subtle decor....they offer all-you-can-drink unlimited mimosas....wait for it...EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK?!?! What?! Is it actually possible? Should I wipe the mascara from my eyes and pinch myself to see if I'm asleep? Nope. It's true. Another added bonus is that once you have drunk yourself into a stupor...you can take advantage of their mechanical bull rides!! Fuck yes! This place was featured on a Season 3 episode of Sex and the City, where the girls go to LA, Miranda rides the bull and flashes a tit! It seemed appropriate that us 4 New Yorkers would come here on our trip to LaLa Land.

Located about a block from my luxurious hotel, I joined up with The Daughters; Alex Magnetic and The Jocelyn, Jenny Sok-N-Fuck and Semi Precious Weapons' guitar hero Stevy Pyne to drink, feast and ride machinery. The Joce of course made friends with our waiter Chester and he really hooked us up with a plethora of mimosa options; traditional orange, peach, mango, passion fruit, apple, and by that point I was so wasted I don't remember the rest. They started us off with scrumptious bisquets with maple butter, Joce got Mac and Cheese that was slammin', Stevy got a burger that I was pretty jealous of, I got a low carb omelette that was good for what it was.....and Alex got a serving of cotton candy the size of her head. All in all we definitely won at life.
