British Brand makes a splash

British comedian, musician, radio host, and actor Russel Brand makes quite a splash in this summer's
"Forgetting Sarah Marshall." Brand plays Sarah Marshall's new boyfriend after she breaks up with Jason Segel's character Peter Bretter. Some of the biggest laughs come from his hilarious musical stints and one-liners. He is already very popular in England, but is now making his mark on American fans as well.

Gimme more Mad Money July 27th, 9:00 PM on AMC

It's coming back. Last summer's best television show was no other than AMC's "Mad Men." For those of you who missed it, which is probably most of you, I highly recommend you catch yourself up before season 2 airs on July 27th. The show is intelligent, interesting, and unlike anything you've seen on television in the past few decades. For more information, click here.

Mila Makeover

I am not sure exactly what it is, but Mila is looking quite different these days. What do you think?

Men? No thanks

It's no wonder that serial dater Lindsay Lohan is now dating a female. She has been previously linked to a string of men such as Aaron Carter, Harry Morton, Jeremy Piven, Jared Leto, Ryan Adams, Shaun White, Brett Ratner, Jude Law, and Calum Best to name a few. Apparently, men are not able to hold her attention for too long. Hope this works out for her.

Who is Devendra Banhart???

Who doesn't love Natalie Portman? She is smart, talented, altruistic, not to mention beautiful as well. So when Natalie Portman is dating someone, he must be quite a guy. Born in Texas, but raised in Venezuela, this 28 year old folk-rock singer, songwriter and musician has some pretty interesting music. I've only heard a few of his tracks, but so far so good. Click here to listen to some tracks on his myspace page. My favorite is Queen Bee...what's yours?

Winehouse Wonder

There is nothing like good music to lift one's spirits. Whenever I feel blue or just in the mood for some fun tunes, I can always count on Amy Winehouse. Click here to listen to this musical talent.

Editing and Stupidity

As strange as this might sound, one of my favorite ways to de-stress is to watch an episode of MTV's famous hit show "The Hills." For those who have never seen it, the show follows the life of protagonist "LC" (Lauren Conrad) and her friends (depending on the day) Whitney, Audrina, and Heidi as they gallivant around Los Angeles. The reason I love this show, is to allows me to remove my mind from the constant tragedies and horrific images on the news and watch something light and superficial. The show rarely, if ever, discusses any serious topics and unfortunately portrays the girls as complete airheads. I was dumbfounded by the extent of how ridiculous the show can get and according to many sources, most of the shots are fake. I could never understand why the girls never have normal conversations that sound natural and flowing and until I watched the deleted scenes, I thought they didn't know how to talk normally. The DVD features several deleted scenes where the viewer can actually see that they are not as stupid as they are portrayed on the show. It seems that the MTV editing crew cuts the conversations in such a way to add so much unnecessary drama and makes the girls look pathetic. If anyone wants a glimpse into a more "realistic" version of their lives...watch the deleted scenes.

Welcome to Celebrity Luv

Hello readers!

I have to admit that I am guilty of being completely fascinated by celebrities and famous people. This does not imply that I wish to be like them nor do I believe that they are superior to any other human being on this planet. I am just very interested in people and the human condition and because celebrities are constantly featured EVERYWHERE in the media world, they are more accessible to the rest of us. In my experience, most people take interest in the lives of others and are either talking about, or comparing and judging others. Unfortunately for celebrities, with the proliferation of the paparazzi, they are consistently in the spotlight and more susceptible to the.opinions of others. I am starting this site to create a forum for sharing a different perspective on celebrities and perhaps a more positive one. I am tired of reading the same negative and hurtful stories about celebrities and I hope to offer readers another way to look at the stories that magazines put out there. Perhaps if people start giving celebrities the benefit of the doubt, they might do the same with the people in their own lives. Please feel free to add your comments, I am always open to more opinions! Enjoy
