I feel like Lena Dunham is so intent on bucking normal hollywood that she is going so far off in the other direction that she's not even being herself. I can't imagine anyone would want to look like she tries to look on purpose, even her.

YES! I loved this book. Read it and-re-read it. A female dragon-fighter! Awesome!

Homecoming and it's successor, Dicey's Song (it is a 7-book long saga), by Cynthia Voight, 1981 and 1982.

One of the early news reports actually stated that there was a reason no photos had been shown of Gina and and Michelle after the rescue, that the only photos were of Amanda. Apparently Gina and Michelle were pretty bad off because of how much worse they were treated then Amanda. That same article stated that he…

I hear what you're saying. I just think it is misplaced in response to this article. This article didn't seem to be about letting her stay or not. It is about her not being afraid to seek justice against someone who wronger her so horribly. The two are separate matters. Just because she may be illegal doesn't…

YES!!! that wig was HORRIBLE!!! Must better with teh short hair.

Oh jeez. It's not that the others aren't being discussed. Portia De Rossi just gets teh most comments because (other than Jason Bateman) she probably has the most face-time (I don't mean that as a pun), so it is more obvious. It is also more distracting than the others - Jason Bateman looks the same as he has in…

You're fine! I had my first kiss in my early twenties...and it was okay nothing great. I never dated in high school or college. Went out with maybe two guys in my mid-20's. I was always the girl with the crush. When I met my partner it just clicked. I was in my mid-30's been together 5 years now and going strong.…

I think they made a mistake by starting with flashbacks from each character's individual perspective. I think it's a genius idea, a bold new concept. But, unfortunately they have proven it was a better concept than actual product. It made the whole series choppy, dislocated, hard to follow, and distracting. I…

YES! when the promo pictures came out last week I paused on hers for a good five minutes, but then figured it was just majorly photo-shopped. Not so. It's like she managed to photo-shop her face in real life. Love Portia De Rossi, but it really does take way from her acting and the scenes she's in.

I feel like Jennifer Aniston is a good actress if she either has enough time to play the part that she can grow into a nuanced, full-fledged character, or you give her a flawed character to begin with. Otherwise, she is just okay. Which means, she is no Meryl Streep who could give depth to any character. I couldn't…

Yes, he was THE BEST part of the show - constantly trying to remain relevant and famous without ever actually acting again, while still thinking he is a major celebraty worthy of his diva ways. My favories were when he tried to be a spokesmodel for jeans and when he was on Dancing With the Stars and realized he…

not sure what's up with all the hate for Selena Gomez's outfit. It's fun. She's still young (maybe not entirely by hollywood standards), so I love that she went with neon piping. And the mesh panels aren't overbearing, so the show that she isn't the tween she once was. I think it's entirely age-appropriate and fun.…

And there is another photo somewhere of JLo and I swear you can see make-up covered tape in her cleavage. At that point, what is the point of no bra?

ME TOO!

Great observation. I think that it has also become harder to write a viable rom-com as social constructs have changed. I liked the Meg Ryan and the Doris Day movies, but I don't relate to them, even When Harry Met Sally which every one heralds as the gold-star of rom-coms. Once you get away from the simple…

Part of the reason I think the non-over-the-top-blockbusteres die at the movie theatres now is the ability to watch the same movie in a few months streaming or on DVD combined with insane movie ticket prices. When I am thinking about spending over $10 a ticket per person, plus concession prices, for a mere 2 hours, I…

I figured out my thing with Jennifer Aniston. I like her; I really do. And watching re-runs of Friends I realize how much I undervalued her talent. However, a great actress she is not. The reason being that she cannot protray a nuanced actual person unless she is given a significant amount of time to play that…

I think Jezebel has just jumped on the media bandwagon surrouding Beyonce. Every since Bey got pregnant the first time she has been elevated to some super stardom/queen status in complete seriousness. I feel like before when she was called Queen Bey it was still a bit tongue-in-cheek.

I tend to agree with you. I have known thin women, and they catch a lot of flak too. People telling them they need to eat more, or they're too small, or that they could easily be broken in two. This may be something she is proud to have in the open, as this post mentions but then dismisses, because she is happy with…
