Mariah Carey Vs. Nicki Minaj: ‘American Idol’ Season 12 Premieres

Diva v. Diva

The much-ballyhooed 12th season of American Idol premiered on Fox last night and by pretty much all accounts, it was all about new judges Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj. New judge Keith Urban chimed in a few times, veteran judge Randy Jackson was loud and annoying but … for me (and many others, I’m sure) I was only watching for Mimi and Nicki. To be honest, I was surprised how much I loved Nicki on the show … she took charge more than any other judge, Mimi included, and I thought makes a great addition to the show. I enjoyed watching American Idol for the first time in many, many years. More »

Pregnant Kate Middleton Is Reportedly Craving Lavender Shortbread

How Duchess of her

It’s been a few weeks since we’ve heard a peep of new information about Kate Middleton and her baby bump but today we are hearing that the Duchess of Cambridge is indulging in a curious pregnancy craving. According to reports, Kate has been craving lavender shortbread. While normal, non-royal women tend to crave things like ice cream and/or pickles, Katie has been feeding her baby bump lavender shortbread … which sounds just about fancy enough for the gestating heir to the British royal throne, don’t it?

Lindsay Lohan Spotted In London To Possibly Stalk Max George For New Year’s Eve

Lindsay Behaving

Earlier today we learned of a report that claims that Lindsay Lohan is planning to “stay home” and not party this New Year’s Eve and right now we learn that at least one of those things is incorrect. Lindsay made her way to London, England yesterday ahead of New Year’s Eve to presumably ring in 2013 with friends … perhaps friends with benefits. As you may recall, Lindsay has recently been spending a lot of time with Max George of The Wanted … and by “spending a lot of time with”, I mean stalking the band on tour in an attempt to be as close to Max as possible while he’s still interested. Apparently, Lindsay is hoping that Max is at this point still interested in seeing her because she flew all the way to London to see him. Hmmm. More »

Rumor Has It ...

Now, at this point, there aren’t many deets about the rumored nuptials but if true, it would mean that one of TV’s hottest actors is about to go off the market … which is both happy and sad news all at the same time ;) This post is an excuse to look at hot photos of Stephen Amell, so won’t you join me below?

Y’All Are NOT READY For The New TV Series ‘The Following’

I'm so serious, SO not ready

Last week I received a box that was covered in quotes by Edgar Allen Poe and I assumed it was a promo item sent to me by one of the movie/TV studios. I found out that I was correct when I opened it up and found a DVD screener and a creepy-ass mask (of Poe) inside. The promo items are for the new Fox series The Following, starring Kevin Bacon and James Purefoy. Yesterday afternoon, I spent some time watching the first 4 episodes of The Following and OMG, are y’all in for a jolt when the show debuts next month. Click below to see a poster and an extended trailer for the series and read what I think about what I saw. I have a feeling that The Following is going to make a big splash when it premieres in a few weeks. More »

But because of the tragic events of the week, I’m inspired to do things a little differently this time around. Click inside for more!
