...Is what P and I were shouting at about 10.30p last night, the impatient toddlers that we are. We went to see Little Boots at Le Poisson Rougealong with T and Dand I have to say that I can't remember the last time I left a show so...so...in love. (Though, unlike the could-be mos behind us, I do NOT want to have her babies.) And I can't decide what I liked most: the suburban girl dance routines, the Hitchcockian platinum updo, or, um, the music. So judge for yourself?
The only hipsters I hate are the motherfuckers who write quasi-intellectual hate email to me. I get so many messages that are like, "Fuck you, man. You're the hipster...You're using a false term to describe something that's just a social construct." Okay, I get it, you went to college. What do you want from me? A grade? You want me to grade your email? 'F' There. You get an F. Go away. Everyone went to college.
Oh, god help us. I'm sure this comes as a huge SHOCKER, but people name their offspring after celebrities. In this culture?!? But! According to an article by baby-naming expert (yah, who knows) Pamela Redmond Satran for The Daily Beast, they don't stick to, um, classy ones: Three of the fastest-growing names for girls are Khloe (Kardashian), Miley (Cyrus), and Audrina (Partridge).
I mean, what about Whitney? At least she got the spin-off.
The top 10s are here (and are pretty predictable)Madison, anyone?
Jessica Stam. I mean, first of all, Rodarte. Thank you. Beyond that, everything works: the hair, the shoes, the pose.
At the other end of the spectrum:
Jessica Biel. I've said this once, and I'll say it again: High school volleyball player. That's all I see. And, why do I feel like these two clowns look like they're at a costume party where they decided to go as Brad and Angelina? Not working.
More pretty and not-so-pretty dresses over ats The Cut.
BAD. Sorry. The crazy person next to me has started to take over my brain.
You guys, I just realized I have yet to mention to you all my new hobby: stalking Bo Obama a.k.a. Bobama (sorry, T) a.k.a. the most fascinating, wondering, pick-me-upping dog EVER. I am obsessed with him and am convinced that the best way to achieve world peace is to get him and Suri Cruise in a room together. Problems would just meeellllt, you know? Osama Bin Laden would throw up his hands and then give the whole world a hug. (Because O.B.L. is the whole problem, you know? That's what I've heard.)
Now, considering that I was one of the seven people to purchase Mandy Moore's last album Wild Hope, it probably comes as no surprise that I'm also psyched for her next, Amanda Leigh, out on 5/26. I do think, though, that even if I didn't know this was "I love you, forever. Love always, Mandy" singing, I'd still love the first single "I Could Break Your Heart Any Day of the Week." It's Jo Dee Messina plus Katy Perryyou know, in a good way.
You know when someone's US Weekly career consumes his big-screen one like a flesh-eating disease? And you see so many still photos of said person that you start to forget he actually moves? Well, today Lindsay Lohan and the on-again Funny or Die remind us that, hi, LiLo has a voice. And sometimes it's even witty and self-deprecating.
It took me until 2008 to realize that writing things on the internet doesn't (necessarily) make you the most annoying person in the universe. Then my friend had a dream that I had a blog where I posted a photo of myself in an orange sequined dress. Hot.
