Easy A: Gets High Marks in Charm

In Easy A, our heroine Olive Pendergast says she wants her life to be like a John Hughes movie.

In Easy A, our heroine Olive Pendergast says she wants her life to be like a John Hughes movie. It's a lofty aspiration considering Hughes's reputation as the teen movie master, but it's one that the film unapologetically strives for with a playful wink. You have the alluring love interest à la Sixteen Candles (played here by Penn Badgley), Ferris Bueller-inspired shower karaoke, and a witty red-headed leading lady who is seemingly oblivious to her own coolness.

Emma Stone plays Olive, a teen homebody who's mistakenly branded as the school's own Hester Prynne after lying to her BFF (Aly Michalka) about losing her virginity. When the self-righteous religious club leader (Amanda Bynes) overhears, it's not long before everyone knows about Olive's supposed fling. Enter Brandon (Cougar Town's Dan Byrd), a bullied closeted gay student. Olive pretends to have sex with him to help his reputation, and she becomes the Mother Teresa of social outcasts, offering imaginary makeouts and boob fondling to help geeks up their popularity. When her charade spirals out of control, she's left without friends. To find out why I loved it, read more

Amanda Bynes Says She's Retiring — Will You Miss Her?

Just the other day my friend and I were talking about how we've been missing Amanda Bynes in movies lately.

Just the other day my friend and I were talking about how we've been missing Amanda Bynes in movies lately. She had just seen She's the Man, and we were commenting on her spot-on comedic timing. Well, too bad for us, because now comes word that Bynes is leaving acting for good — the actress took to her Twitter account over the weekend to announce that she's retired.

The news has me thinking back to her days on The Amanda Show or her "Ask Ashley" segment on All That (if you haven't seen either, go here and here). Sure, she was a bit over-the-top, but she was totally a little SNL comedienne in the making. If her recent tweet is to be believed, the last we may be seeing of Bynes is September's Easy A. I know she hasn't exactly been churning out movies, but I'm a bit disappointed none the less. How about you?

Movie Preview: Emma Stone Gets a Bad Reputation in Easy A

Prepare to be refreshed: for every dozen lackluster comedies, a diamond in the rough emerges, and by the looks of this trailer, that diamond could be Easy A.

Prepare to be refreshed: for every dozen lackluster comedies, a diamond in the rough emerges, and by the looks of this trailer, that diamond could be Easy A. Emma Stone is at home in the starring role of the high school comedy — somewhat of a modern-day version of The Scarlet Letter — as Olive, a high school nobody. Her standing at school suddenly changes when she pretends to sleep with a gay classmate (Cougar Town's Dan Byrd) as an act of goodwill so their peers will stop torturing him. The lie soon snowballs, and her rep becomes both scandalized and impossible to ignore.

The premise is made all the better by the funny preview — it definitely smacks of Mean Girls, both in setting and humor (sample Olive quip: "I fake rocked your world"). Factor in the many famous faces in the film, like Penn Badgley, Amanda Bynes, Lisa Kudrow, plus Patricia Clarkson and Stanley Tucci as Olive's parents, and I'm ready to slap on a scarlet "E" for excited.

Amanda Bynes knows how to show a little leg while keeping things seasonal! For an evening at STK restaurant in West Hollywood, she wore a black blazer over a ruffle bottom dress, which she paired with some nude peep-toe pumps. To stay warm on a cool LA night, she wrapped a bright white pashmina around her neck, which contrasted well with this oversize patent leather bag. Get Amanda's look by shopping similar pieces now.

Fashion Week Comes to a Star-Studded Close in NYC

Yesterday was the last day of Spring Fashion Week in NYC, and the celebrity attendants closed the spectacle in style. Tommy Hilfiger's show and afterparty brought out Penn Badgley and Naomi Watts, while the designer himself posed with a pretty-in-pink January Jones. Taylor Swift took a break from the ongoing Kanye drama to take in Tommy's presentation, as did Rosario Dawson and Emily Blunt. Amanda Bynes spent her afternoon at Ann Taylor, and Rachel Zoe was in an olive onesie to toast the latest Calvin Klein collection — though she had to cut out early to nurse her flu with her special drink. The madness is moving on to London now, so make sure to stay tuned to Fab UK for all the latest news!
