Blair Waldorf...singing?

I was totally surprised! I never knew that B can hit a note much more launch an album. Yes, she's planning to launch an album! See movie clip above so you'll know what I'm talking about.

Apparently, Miss Waldorf got a gig on the movie Drive Thru. Hot or Not? You be the judge. But personally, I think she has no hand and body coordination...I can immediately tell that she doesn't know how to play the guitar. Or am I wrong?

Owel, her singing voice is a 360 turn from her Upper East side voice. Who would've thought that she wanted to be a rockstar?

If you want more, check this out. I like this one. Her own house/pop/disco (not sure on the genre) version of Bette Davis Eyes.

Popshionista-speak

anxSHOES*- (angk'shus)

1. Uneasy and apprehensive about a certain pair of shoes
   
2. Attended with, showing, or causing anxiety: spent an anxious day salivating over your friend's shoes. See Image below**

* credits to J♥ who originally coined the term. Enjoy India dear!
** OK. My colleague just got back from a 2-month business trip to London. Like a true shoe-natic, she skipped eating altogether, and devoted her time and GBPs to shopping!
She bought around 8 pairs, that's like a pair for every week she spent in UK. Wow! Drooling. Now that's what I call real business! Anyway, pictured above is one of the many sources of my shoe anxiety.. I'm so anxshoes all morning I had to take a picture of it using my phone's cam!

Beverly Hills 90210 pilot episode

No advance screening for media people? Great marketing strategy for the newest residents of the zip! And what better way to kickoff the season but to air a back-to-back 2 hour premiere!

I must say, this drama is pretty interesting! Being a follower of the old school drama makes me want to see what's in store for the 2008 version.

• The kids may not be as fasyon as Blair Waldorf and Chuck Bass but they have an impact. Think of Charlize Theron in a teen drama! And I mean it literally because Naomi (second to the left on the photo) really looks like Charlize! By the way, these kids are ONLY 15-16 years old!
  
• The pit isn't all about the burgers anymore!
• Shannen Doherty and Jennie Garth appearances... +++ audience impact. No logical explanation needed. Viva vintage zip residents..hello?
• There's this one character (Ty)...he's 15-16 yrs old I think...he portrays a rich guy. Yeah I get it, what kind of teenager owns a private jet and takes his friend to grab a bite in SanFo? Kids these days!
• The show's soundtrack is great! Viva La Vida opening song..nice!

Click click for more. :p

Just to refresh your memories, here's a photo of the old school Beverly Hills 90210.

Look at those printed polos, that HUGE red blazers (am I even seeing shoulder pads? haha), and that mommy pants! What can I say, Brenda is always timeless! Go team Brenda! :D

How to Lose Friends and Alienate People

It was only recently that I discovered the benefits (and costs) of creating an Amazon.com account. Immediately after getting one I was typing like a madwoman trying to find my very first online purchase! * Well, I've been trying to get a copy of this book for years- not because of its critical merits, nor due to the mixed buzz it got - but simply because I liked the book's title (and the things it implied)! Strangely, I couldn't find one here in Manila. I found the perfect candidate!In no time I was $30 poorer. The book was on my doorstep two weeks after.

Anyway here are my thoughts:
- Toby Young is a complete m_ron. I completely agree with some points that he raised, so I wont be surprised if occasionally I appear like a m_ron as well!Haha

- He had an interesting take and references to democracy and meritocracy, but he dwelled too much on these two the book was borderline boring! And I thought this was light reading!

- Fortunately there were a number Gossip Girl- worthy accounts to keep me awake(so who's the hyper hyphenated Alex da Silva? clue: former drummer/world class junkie/turned Hollywood screenwriter/dated a supermodel who used to date de Niro!whew). Plus Candace Bushnell (yes of the Sex and the City fame)is a recurring character in the book.**

- I have developed fondness of the English sense of humor- Nick Hornby.Thank.You.Very.Much. So I appreciate Toby's self-deprecating ways.

- He sure had a mouthful to say about New York, America, and the Great American Dream. I'm surprised this book did not start World War 3 (I kid)

- His Conde Nastie stories will definitely remind you of your own corporate horror stories (office sharks, mermaids, and all, I'm sure you've met at least one of them!)

- Overall, although it sounded like I hated it, I think this book remains as an interesting read.

*Yes I am a complete online shopping novice. To this day I'm still surprised it actually worked (haha)!
** This is a perfect validation of my unhealthy celebrity and gossip obsession.
$30 - includes the $20 shipping cost

BOYS LIKE GIRLS live in MANILA!

I was kind of disappointed but I'm posting it anyway. Boys Like Girls is currently here in Manila! And they're doing several shows...or should I say a mall tour (which is the very reason why I'm disappointed)?

They deserve some bigger lovin you know? Who doesn't love a band who gives you songs like Hero-heroine, Thunder and Great Escape? And don't forget their own version of Let Go! Seriously, they need a better venue than the Ayala Malls! Sign the petition please hahah kidding!

Owel, what can we do? At least they are here. You can still catch them on these dates:

TriNoma
Activity Center
September 5 at 7:00 P.M.

Glorietta

One Tree Hill Season 6 Episode 1: Touch Me I'm Going to Scream

For awhile I thought it was indeed a BRUCAS season. False hopes! They made me believe for the first few minutes that BRUCAS will rule season 6. Disappointment.

Well...lucky Peyton. She's the one. Rejoice for the blondes! Lucas is the sweetest! I love him! haha!

And that evil nanny...karma really is a bitch! Welcome to the karma world Dan!

Season 6 is the thug (hahaha!)! OTH soundtrack now includes hot new hiphop tracks. Thanks to Q!

I think I've given more than enough spoilers. :p Go watch it now...i mean NOW! and Gossip Girl too!

Will watch the newest BH 90210 later. will post soon! xoxo
