Last Stop

The TV Guide

And so … my NYC jaunt is dunzo. My flight home to LA was pretty early in the afternoon which meant that I really didn’t have much time in the morning to play one last time in the city. I did a tiny bit of work, packed up my bags and made my way to JFK Airport. The weather was glorious and I’m sure I could have enjoyed another fun day in NYC if I had more time but … after an action-packed week of fun, I was pretty ready to head back home. More »

Wait, No: You Don’t Understand How Much Fun We Had With Trent At Toys ‘R Us

Babes In Toyland, Le Deux

As y’all know, this past weekend I got to hang out with Trent in the flesh and it was kind of a huge deal! Every day I ‘hang out’ with Trent on the blog and we G-mail chat like cray, but can you believe we’ve only physically kicked it, like, three times?! And every time I see him, it literally feels like we just hung out five seconds ago or something. It’s awesome. Y’all know we went to a Yankees game, and y’all know he met my boys, but I still don’t think you fully understand how much fun we had this past weekend. So click inside for my mini-recap of how it all went down!

Babes In Toyland

The TV Guide

After I got to hang out for a wee bit with PITNB blogger Shannon at Yankee Stadium on Saturday, I knew I had to hang out with her again. We made plans to hang out in the city WITH her adorable young sons and we had the best time ever! I met up with Shannon and the boys at the massive Toys R Us in Times Square and, well, we put that place on lock. We played, we ate and we shopped … it was very fun. After our afternoon hang, I met up with my crew and we hopped a transit bus to New Jersey to see How to Destroy Angels in concert last night. It was a long but very fun day. More »

The Bronx Bombers

The TV Guide

For yesterday’s fun, the bunch of us met up with PINK IS THE NEW BLOG BLOGGER Shannon and we all made our way up to the Bronx to see the New York Yankees play the Toronto Blue Jays!! Caleb and Steve came up with the idea for us to go to a baseball game and OMG, did we have fun. Firstly, it was so amazing getting to introduce my friends to Shannon because — as I expected — they all fell in lurve with her (as people tend to do when they meet her). The Yankees won, we had a blast … it was a most excellent Saturday in the city. More »

Theater Review: ‘Kinky Boots’

The TV Guide

My day in NYC yesterday was about as perfect as it could be. The temperature soared into the 70s, I got to hang out all day with amazing friends and I got to see a fantastic Broadway show last night. Just, perfect. The day was spent walking around SoHo, snacking and shopping along the way. My evening was spent at the Al Hirschfeld Theater where I saw Kinky Boots. The night was spent dranking, roaming the streets of NYC and crashing in bed with pizza. ‘Twas a fine day, indeed. More »

Then She FAIL

The TV Guide

So, my first full day here in NYC yesterday was MOSTLY fun … there was shopping, eating, drinking, hanging, lots of fun stuff. I had planned on seeing the immersive off Broadway show Then She Fell last night but due to technical problems with the L line subway (the only line that goes into Brooklyn from where I was at the time), I was unable to see the show at all :( Needless to say, I was pretty bummed last night (no show, no refund) but thankfully the rest of the day with my friends Ollie, Caleb and Tamar was superfun so … I guess I cannot complain at all.

Start Spreading The News . . .

The TV Guide

I have arrived, NYC. After a pretty long day of travel early yesterday morning, I met up with my friends Tamar, Ollie and Caleb here in NYC where we will be cohabitating for the rest of the week. This trip was largely built around the upcoming NJ & NYC shows by How to Destroy Angels but we thought it would be fun to get into town early so that we can do other things as well. Unsurprisingly, my schedule is already kinda full but I’m excited to get down to the biz of enjoying the Big Apple. Our first night here in NYC was fun last night … let the week of fun begin! More »

Lindsay Lohan’s Nightclub Fight Was Either Over A Racial Slur, A ‘Liz & Dick’ Insult, Or Max From The Wanted

One Or The Other... Or All Of The Above. Maybe.
The Tonight Show with Jay Leno - Season 21

Yesterday, things got a little redundant over here, as we published another story about another Lindsay Lohan arrest. The actress got into a physical altercation at a NYC nightclub and was taken into custody shortly thereafter. Lindsay was released in the wee hours of the morning, but this arrest broke a new record for LiLo; she is now being charged with four different crimes on two different coasts. AKA the trainwreck that is her lifestyle is now lit’rally everywhere! I can only echo the “sentiments” of the cop who walked her out of jail yesterday: Damn, girl. Now we’re getting deets (conflicting though they be) about how everything popped off yesterday.

Mayor Bloomberg Seriously Banned Very Large Sodas From NYC

Totally Awesome Or Totally Messing With The Right To Choose?
broadway concert 2 100912

This is a special time for our country politically and there are huge issues being debated on a daily basis. While ‘soda’ is not necessarily one of those issues, American healthcare is an issue and for many people, so is American obesity. The statistics are kind of insane and I’m certainly not opposed to organizations and movements that seek to educate and encourage us all to live healthier lives. I’m eternally grateful to Trent, who– at the very least– makes me think really hard about running, like, all the time :) But the mayor of New York City (billionaire Bloomberg) has just passed a controversial ban on extra large soft drinks (as in, larger than 16 0z.) from restaurants, movie theatres, and fast food joints in an attempt to… what? Stop obesity? Force people to make healthier choices? I’m not exactly sure. And while the ban may have many, many positive effects, it also poses a host of serious questions about government involvement in the daily lives and decisions of Americans. Click inside to learn more about the ban, and to join me in a discussion of political or social freedoms and soda (or pop, shouts-out to Cleveland)- related rights.

This ‘New York State Of Mind’ Fashion Shoot Is Kind Of Awesome

Canadian Model Turned NYC Skyscraper

Some time ago I fell in lurve with the website Fashion Gone Rogue and they haven’t disappointed me since. This week they shared a brilliant new photo shoot titled New York State Of Mind and I am sooo into it! Canadian model Charlie Paille was on the scene looking all types of NYC rocker-chic and the photography by Antia Pagant is to die for. Charlie towers above the entire Big Apple in some pics, like a gorgeous, human skyscraper. I loved the angles and cuts in the series and I really think they capture a very specific NYC vibe. Peep the gallery for more and somebody grab a camera and pleeease take pics of me in these exact poses, lol. Need a new Facebook profile pic, stat! No, seriously. Love these pictures! And I’m definitely listening to the old Nas song as I flip through the gallery; it does and doesn’t make sense, but it’s still a good time :)

Charlie is rocking Prada, D&G, Yves Saint LaurentThierry Mugler, and more.
