Aimee Teegarden stars in Disney’s Prom

Tuesday, April 12th, 2011

YouTube Preview Image

Premiering April 29th, Disney’s Prom promises a good time for the whole family. Aimee Teegarden (of Friday Night Lights fame) stars in this comedic portrayal of teens in the peak of high school excitement…the prom.

Movie Insider gives this run-down on the film:

Several intersecting stories unfold at one high school as the big dance approaches; Prom portrays the precarious passage from high school to independence as some relationships unravel and others ignite. For Nova Prescott (Aimee Teegarden), it’s a battle of wills as she finds herself drawn to the guy (Thomas McDonell) who gets in the way of her perfect prom. Fellow seniors Mei (Yin Chang) and Tyler (De’Vaughn Nixon) harbor secrets, while others face all the insecurity and anticipation that surrounds one of high school’s most seminal events.


What a doll

Monday, March 28th, 2011

Barbie’s long time beau, Ken, celebrated his 50th birthday earlier this month and I must say, he hasn’t aged a bit!

First introduced in 1961, the Ken doll was swimsuit clad and toting a beach blanket. Fast forward 50 years, and the guy looks more like  a Backstreet Boy.

His makeover, in honor of his birthday, was inspired by teen heartthrobs Zac Efron and Justin Beiber. Matel also added some muscle to his build and clothed him in a t-shirt that reads “ultimate boyfriend”. The new Ken is also equipped to record 5 seconds of sound and play it back – in three different pitches!

Here is Ken through the years…enjoy!

Teen heartthrobs Selena Gomez and Justin Beiber walked the red carpet looking like prom king and queen on Oscar night. The new Hollywood couple made their debut on Sunday, not to the surprise of anyone. There have been rampant rumors and countless snapshots proving the fact, but it’s official.  The two held hands and kissed for the cameras.

Selena’s red-hot Dolce & Gabbana gown stunned the crowd while Beiber’s matching hanky was the perfect compliment.

These hotties were bullied?

Tuesday, October 5th, 2010

October is Bullying Prevention month. To raise awareness, stars are stepping up to confess their high school tales of horror. Bullying affects nearly 77% of children, even superstars like Eva Mendes, Jessica Simpson and Jessica Alba.

“People would throw toilet paper at my house or throw eggs at my door,” Jessica Simpson reveals.

Jessica Alba told the U.K.’s Daily Mirror, “I was bullied so badly my dad used to have to walk me into school so I didn’t get attacked.”

Eva Mendes says she put an end to bullying in her life. “When I finally stood up to my bully, that’s when things changed for me,” she told PEOPLE Magazine.

All three of these vixens have left their former bullies kicking themselves for ever kicking them.

Sprint Girls are former CB’s Girls

Monday, May 31st, 2010

sprint

Two of NASCAR’s hottest gals, (okay maybe two of Nascar’s only gals) have ties to cbslimited.com! North Carolina native, Monica Palumbo (far left) and South Carolina sweetheart, Paige Duke (far right) are two of NASCAR’s three Sprint Girls. They are charged with the smiles in Victory Lane following each checkered flag.

NASCAR has become one of the most popular sports in the country and these girls are sort of like the cheerleaders…sort of . In the 1970’s, they were Winston Girls and wore bikinis in Victory Lane. Their duties included kissing the sweaty cheek of the winner, smiling and looking oh-so-beautiful. They were trophy girls, a reference Monica Palumbo says is offensive.

“Absolutely offensive,” said Palumbo, a Miss Sprint Cup figure since Sprint became NASCAR’s title sponsor in 2008. “We’ve worked really hard to change the program and change our name, change the perceptions.”

The new Sprint girl wears a racing suit, like the drivers, and is also a huge part of the marketing of NASCAR. Along with advertising, these gals tweet about their driver interviews and post race riff-raff on Facebook, a far cry from the days of the Winston chicks.

But before Monica Palumbo was a Sprint Girl, she was a member of the CB’s Winners Circle. CB Mathis helped to lead Monica to the crown in 2001, when she became Miss North Carolina. He assisted her with her wardrobe as well as training for stage and interview. She went on to place 15th in the Miss USA pageant later that year.

One of the newest additions to the Sprint Girl roster is Paige Duke. Paige has been a pageant and prom customer of CB’s Limited in Lancaster, SC for years and was even employed there through high school. We are proud to say that Paige is a CB’s Girl!

They won, are you surprised?

nicole-and-derek

The season finale of ABC’s Dancing With The Stars ended exactly the way we all imagined it would, with Nicole and Derek kissing the mirror ball trophy. It was no surprise that Evan Lysaceck took the second spot and Erin Andrews fell short of the final two all together.

Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger and her pro, Derek Hough, were extremely deserving of the honor though. All season, the pair have been the front-runners and the finale on Monday night sealed the deal. Nicole and Derek performed an awesome freestyle routine with a mixture of dance styles included. No one even remembers that there was a flop at the end…the lift didn’t quite take off.

Freestyle routines (the most anticipated portion of the finale for me) from the other contenders were not as exciting. Erin and Maks bounced around on a bed and called it contemporary dancing, while Evan made a mess of a classic tune, Footloose. Judge Bruno Tonioli described it as “screw loose.”

I must say, finale disasters aside…this season 10 of DWTS has been the best so far. Can’t wait to see what the fall season has in store.

Bret Michaels, back at it

Sunday, May 16th, 2010

Just weeks after a brain hemorrhage nearly put the Poison rocker on his death bed, Bret Michaels is scheduling gigs and returning to Celebrity Apprentice. He was released from the hospital two weeks ago, and it is nothing short of a miracle.

Doctors thought Michaels would never recover and here he is planning to return to live performances on May 28th. One of those performances is alongside Leonard Skynard in Florida on June 10th. When the hemorrhage occurred, Michaels was filming Celebrity Apprentice. He is expected to appear on the show’s finale May 23rd.

It is wonderful news that Bret Michaels has been given a second chance, a new breath of life. We can only hope that he will use that chance for something better than a bus filled with skanks, vying for his Rock of Love.

Mom’s Day

Monday, May 10th, 2010

mothers-day-flowers

Hope you didn’t forget your mom yesterday. Mother’s Day is a tradition dating back to the early 1600’s. England called it Mothering Sunday back then, and Christians used it as as a day to celebrate Mary, mother of Jesus. Over the years, the tradition evolved and the scope expanded to include all mothers.

The holiday really ramped up during WWI. President Woodrow Wilson declared the second Sunday in May a national holiday, Mother’s Day. And so the commercial holiday was born, giving florists and jewelers a reason to celebrate!

We should celebrate our Moms everyday, not just the second Sunday in May.
