9021-OK

ATTENTION: '90210' SPOILER ALERT WARNING
Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

So … 90210 finally debuted on The CW last night to much anticipation and speculation about the new incarnation of the hugely successful and beloved Beverly Hills, 90210 from the early ’90s. Right off the bat I have to admit that my fears have been put to rest, the new version of the hit series (thus far) seems to have all the necessary elements to make it a big hit for a whole new generation of viewers:


So as not to spoil anything for those of you who have yet to see the 2-hour series premiere last night I’m putting my comments about the show behind the cut. After the jump, check out my take on the new 90210

Jennifer Garner Takes The Bump To Lunch

Coming along nicely
Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

Here are a couple pics of Jennifer Garner showing off her ever-expanding baby bump as she met up with friends for lunch in Beverly Hills, CA yesterday afternoon. I think y’all can agree that pregnancy really does seem to suit Jen, yes?


I had forgotten how great Jen looks when she’s pregs. She is one of those women who really just glows during pregnancy. It’s hard to imagine that being pregs can sometimes be an uncomfortable experience (so I hear, that is) when you see pics of Jen lookin’ so happy all the time. If memory serves, she looked just as glowy back when she was pregs with her firstborn child Violet Ann. I think she’s still too early on to be talking gender just yet but I’m hoping for another girl. Dunno why, I just like the idea of Bennifer 2.0 having a set of adorable daughters.

Jessica Alba Czechs In With ‘Esquire’ Magazine

Wowie Wow!
Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

New mom Jessica Alba is featured on the cover and in the pages of the September issue of the Czech Republic’s version of Esquire magazine lookin’ pretty smokin’ hawt:


Damn. Clearly, these photos were taken before Jessica gave birth to her firstborn child, Honor Marie. International versions of US magazines tend to recycle photos used in other publications, and that may be the case with these pics, but I don’t recall seeing these pics before so I felt they were deffo worth a look. It’s pretty ridic how amazing Jessica looks in these pics … I especially love the cover photo. This is how you sell magazines. She looks fantastic … it shouldn’t be long before she’s shooting hawt pics like this again (she’s practically back to her pre-baby size already), for which I’m sure dudes all across the country are desperately anxious.

Geri Halliwell Becomes Sporty Spice

Pitches for the LA Dodgers
Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

Geri Halliwell turned in her Ginger Spice hat for the Sporty Spice hat as she took to the field at Dodgers Stadium here in LA last night to throw out the ceremonial first pitch before the Dodgers took on the San Diego Padres. Here are a few pics of Geri on the mound doing her thing:


You may recall that Snoop Dogg was on hand to throw out the first pitch for the Dodgers a couple of weeks ago and Geri’s Spice Girls cohort, Vicki B, was on hand to do the deed last year. I guess having all these celebs throw out the first pitch is good luck for the Dodgers, they won their game again last night (by a score of 8-4). Whoever will the Dodgers call on next to pitch for them?

Heidi Klum Takes The Family To Disneyland

Cuteness abounds
Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

Here are a few ADORABLE pics of Heidi Klum with hubby Seal and her kiddies Leni, Henry and Johan enjoying a lovely afternoon together at the Happiest Place on EarthDisneyland in Anaheim, CA. The happy family decided to make the most of the long Labor Day weekend and get in some good ol’ fashioned quality time together, behold:


I can’t even decide which is cuter … the family squeezed into the Alice in Wonderland tea cups ride or Seal and the kids in the flying Dumbo ride. They make a very pretty picture, especially ‘cuz we know they are totally genuine in their happiness. Now that Project Runway is supposed to be filmed primarily in Los Angeles once the show moves to Lifetime later on this year, I imagine that the Klum-Samuels might be spending more time together at Disneyland :)
