We got to Disney with plenty of time to ride all the rides we wanted to ride and take a bunch of fun photos. After the jump, check out some of the pics we took yesterday — including a Star Wars themed photo of David and me that is NOT to be missed …

I’d never been to Disneyland to see their Xmas decorations (which go up on November 1) so it was very fun to see it all … Disneyland really does it well. Our Santa hats with the Mickey Mouse ears were a total hit. But the fun did not stop there … we did make time to take some fun professional photos … like these:

I don’t usually like to buy the pics they take of you professionally but these were just too fun not to. The Star Wars one is THE BEST!! We had so much fun … so glad Aram could fly down to enjoy the day with us.

Unfortch for me, the tickle I felt in my throat when I woke up turned into aches and pains as the day wore on and by nightfall, I was seriously praying for sweet death to end my suffering. A double dose of Nyquil and a carton of orange juice later and I’m feeling much better … no more aches but I’m still not feeling too hot. I hope to be able to kill this sick feeling before it gets bad … I really don’t want to get sick. Plz send me healing vibes, I’d be much obliged.

No plans for today … we’ll see how I feel. OY!!

After hearing the good news that Polaroid cameras and film will go into production again next year, I was inspired to start snapping more Polaroid photos again :) I also took a few fun cameraphone photos and posted them on my Twitpic page HERE. We had a total blast last night … if you live in SoCal you MUST get to Disneyland for Halloween Time … it’s really very fun :)

This afternoon, David and I are taking the sisters out for some sunshine fun … not sure what we’re doing just yet but I’m sure we’ll think of something. Happy Weekend!!

Hugh Jackman and his family went to Disneyland [Thursday] … Wolverine himself, Jackman, along with his lovely wife Deborra, and their two kids Ava, 3, and Oscar, 8, spent the day at the happiest place on earth! The Aussie family posed with Mickey at Disneyland in Anaheim, California.

Yes, the visit to Disneyland wasn’t just fun for Hugh (who, I understand, had a blast riding all the rides) but the trip was meant mainly for his young children (at least, that’s what he wants you to believe). After the jump, check out two more photos of Hugh with Mickey along with his wife and two children …

Aww … what a cute family. It’s plainly evident from all of the photos we’ve seen of Hugh with his kids right here on the blog that their happiness is of paramount importance to him. And you can tell that his kids look very happy to be at Disneyland (tho, Oscar look’s a bit iffy in the first pic). It remains to be seen how long the Jackmans will be staying in SoCal but with the opening of Wolvierine taking place a week from today, I suspect they’ll stay in town at least for the Hollywood premiere of the film.

It’s been a whirlwind few days for the children of “Slumdog Millionaire,” which Sunday scooped up the best picture Oscar. In the four days the children have spent in the U.S., the young stars have been swarmed by paparazzi, met celebrities including Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, and partied the night away after their film claimed eight Academy Awards But they’ve also had some amusement park fun. Tanay Hermant Chheda, Tanvi Ganesh Lonkar, Ashutosh Lobo Gajiwalan, Rubiana Ali, Azharuddin Mohammed Ismail Sheik and Ayush Mahesh Khedekar made their first-ever trip to Universal Studios on Friday, checking out the rides and movie-making action. And on Monday, the seven youngsters headed to Disneyland, where they rubbed elbows with Disney stars, including Mickey and Minnie Mouse. On Tuesday, the group will return to India, where celebrations are being planned for the movie’s Oscar wins. The children, two of whom were plucked from the slums of Mumbai for their roles, are being paid a monthly stipend from the film’s producers. They also have trust funds set up, which they will reportedly receive after graduating from school.

OMG, how fun! Disneyland is a treat for kids of any age so I’m sure these kids had the time of their lives. It’s a shame that Dev Patel and Freida Pinto didn’t join them … I know they would’ve had a great time, too. After the jump, check out a few candid shots of the kids as they enjoyed their day at Disneyland …

I love it! They got Mickey Mouse himself to be their personal chaperone thruout the park. Even tho these kids starred in the Best Picture of 2008, they STILL didn’t get treated in the same manner that a certain little robotic alien child did when she got to visit Disney World in Florida last week … so not fair. In any event, I’m sure these kids are very grateful for their experience and prolly wouldn’t want to change places with anyone right now. I hope they are really enjoying themselves these days … they really have earned all (and more) that they are getting right now.

I mean … I get that mebbe it’s not always fun being photographed while enjoying intimate moments with loved ones but when you are a celeb who chooses to get intimate at a place like Disneyland (with who knows how many cameras on site) should you really be surprised? I don’t necessarily think that Disneyland is really the place to be making out with your more famous girlfriend (nor is it a place to be flashing the middle finger, what with all those young children all around) but that is neither here nor there. If Dax Shepard really wants to keep from being photographed in public, he should prolly break it off with Kristen Bell because, let’s be honest here, photogs aren’t really interested in him as much as they are interested in taking pics of her.

I also got to meet a few Pink readers at the park yesterday, including Alison who I got to take a pic with:

The day was just really very fun. Michael did a great job planning everything and we had a blast as a result. I gotta say, it wasn’t the Gay Days bit that made yesterday fun … we would’ve had just as much fun on any ol’ day together.

Thankfully, I managed to rally and get better by the time I had to get back to LA to see Liz Phair at The Troubadour last night. It was my first show at the venue and it was awesome. Liz performed her debut album Exile in Guyville in full (like she did in NYC earlier this summer) to a sold-out house … which included Morrissey himself watching from the VIP balcony. Sadly, I couldn’t snap any pics of him but I did get a few of and with Liz:

The crowd was in LOVE with Liz last night. The whole show was basically a sing-a-long with her … she even mentioned how much she loves play to LA crowds. I must admit, tho, that the band was kinda messy last night. I thought they were really tight when I saw them in NYC but played a bit sloppily last night. Honestly, tho, it added to the overall feel of the show. Liz brought Blake Freedman on stage with her to duet on Flower again and she referred to her as her “protégé”. I gotta say, I was not impressed with any of her performances … she’s not a very strong singer and I don’t understand why Liz keeps bringing her on stage. After the jump, check out video of Liz performing Supernova during the encore …

Sweet sixteen? Not just yet … But Miley Cyrus – who turns 16 on Nov. 23 – got an early jump on her birthday celebration Sunday night with a special bash at Disneyland. “They say it’s the happiest place on Earth,” she said of the themepark, which was shut down exclusively for her. The evening started with Cyrus and pals like Tyra Banks, David Archuleta and Demi Lovato strolling down a large purple carpet. Cyrus’s new beau, Justin Gaston, avoided the carpet crush – but he emerged onstage to help open up for the Hannah Montana star. The guitar playing Gaston joined Cyrus’s dad, Billy Ray, and older sis Brandi to sing “Achy Breaky Heart.” “This is the most amazing sweet 16 that a girl could have!” Cyrus boasted as she stepped on stage to perform. According to Disney, the teen sensation also received a surprise birthday gift from her parents: A new dog! The Maltipoo –] a cross between a Maltese and a poodle – is named Sophie, said the rep, after a dog owned by her late grandfather. Later, Gaston looked on adoringly while the large crowd sang “Happy Birthday” to Cyrus. The Disney star – who calls the budding relationship “great” – then pulled him in close while they watched the fireworks finale. With the stroke of midnight looming, the pop singer was still raring to go. “Its been a long night,” she said, “but I’m still ready to party and ride some rides!”

I mean, how else would Disney’s cash cow golden child celebrate her 16th birthday if not at Disneyland? My friends and I spent our weekend at Disneyland and were inundated with all the signs and decorations going up for her party. Needless to say, we did not shell out the big bucks to party with Miley last night … instead, we went over to California Adventure and rode the rides there. I think it’s plainly obvious that Miley is quickly outgrowing her Disneyness so it would make sense that the company is trying to capitalize on her while they still can. I’m sure there won’t be many Disneyland birthdays in her future from here on out … so I hope she made it a good one.

Have you ever seen a happier more perfect couple before in your whole entire life? Okay, maybe my hyperbole is a bit much but I can’t help but get a little giddy whenever I see these two together. They make a great pair, these two, and I am just filled with immense amounts of joyousness at the happy sight of them together. Disneyland is fun as hell and I love that L. Ron take time out of their bizzy schedules to trek down to Anaheim from LA every once-in-a-while to enjoy the fun together. I just love them :)

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 :)

The world’s most popular teenager, Miley Cyrus, will celebrate her 16th birthday at the Disneyland resort in Anaheim, Calif., on October 5, the same time Gay Days takes place. The 11th annual Gay Days event, which attracted 30,000 gays and lesbians to the park last year, actually takes place October 3-5. Gay Days describes itself as a “mix-in with straight parkgoers,” where the LGBT crowd wears red shirts. Gay Days is not Disney-sponsored, so park operators will not have official regulation over the event. Cyrus will celebrate her birthday with 5,000 fans, including volunteers from Youth Service America on October 5. “I only turn 16 once, so it’s going to be an awesome party with my favorite rides, hanging out with friends, fireworks, and more,” she said in a press release on Thursday. “I’ll even get to sing a couple songs.” Cyrus’s event promises fireworks, music, and a celebration for the youth volunteers.

HMMM … I wonder if Billy Ray Cyrus knows about this.
