American Idol Snap Judgments: Pop and Buzz Pick the Top 12

BuzzSugar — Thu, 14 Feb 2008 15:30:21 -0800

American Idol announced its top 24 last night, and that can only mean one thing: It's time for irrational predictions! Last year, Pop and I faced off with our snap judgments about which of the 24 semi-finalists would make it to the finals, and we had so much fun taunting each other about it that we decided to do it again this time around.

This year's a little tricky because we've hardly seen half of these guys, and a few of the girls haven't had much screen time, either. But no matter - that's what gut feelings are for, right? To see which guys and girls we each think will make it through, just push play:

For our full lists plus pictures of all the contestants, just read more.

Recast 90210!

BuzzSugar — Mon, 04 Dec 2006 08:36:12 -0800

Ever wonder what a TV show would be like if you could be the casting director? Well, now's your chance. The actors who made the characters on 90210 memorable were awesome and all, but what if you could "recast" that series? Who would you pick? For example, what if Dylan were played by Josh Hartnett? Or Brenda by Lindsay Lohan? Can you imagine Kristen Bell as Kelly or Ashton Kutcher as Brandon?

Now it's your turn! Leave a comment below and tell us how you'd recast this TV classic. We'll pick one winner to feature this Friday, Dec. 8, when we launch our new entertainment site, BuzzSugar.com, which will give you the straight story on must-see movies, hot albums, and all of your favorite TV shows.

Characters to recast:
Kelly, Dylan, Brenda, Brandon, David, Donna, Andrea and Steve

The Coreys Reunite

PopSugar — Wed, 21 Jun 2006 13:14:18 -0700

In a last desperate attempt to revive their careers, teen heart-throbs Corey Haim and Corey Feldman are teaming up for a new comedy. We admit we loved them back in the 80's in The Lost Boys and Dream A Little Dream but we don't read Teen Beat anymore so those days are over. That said, we may have to tune in to see the two of them back together again. Variety reports:

Former teen heartthrobs Corey Feldman and Corey Haim have teamed with RDF USA ("Wife Swap") on "The Coreys," a hybrid improv comedy that would center on fictional versions of themselves a la "Curb Your Enthusiasm."

"The Coreys" picks up with Feldman living the comfortable suburban life with his wife Suzie and son, until circumstances bring his old pal Haim back into the picture. Episodes would follow Haim -- single and the total opposite of Feldman -- as he shakes life up for the Feldmans.

RDF USA exec VP of current/development Greg Goldman said because Feldman and Haim have been friends on and off screen for several years, the chemistry between the two " just pops off the screen."

Angelina on Anderson

PopSugar — Wed, 21 Jun 2006 11:10:35 -0700

Last night was the big interview but I was a little let down. I felt like I was watching Jolie repeat herself since they stretched the show for 2 long hours with what felt like just a little Jolie mixed in. Overall it was very informative and actually cleared up how she got so interested in all her do-good ways.

Watching the breathtaking Jolie talk about her children is beautiful. I like that Zahara is called "Z." Too bad the big one is already jealous of her new little sister Shiloh. She's going to have a lot more to be jealous of since Jolie & Pitt plan to continue adopting. Click here to read the transcript from last night's interview.

Jason Heads to The Hills

PopSugar — Tue, 20 Jun 2006 20:41:15 -0700

We have been watching The Hills, but have not yet reported on it like we did with Laguna Beach. While watching LC intern at Teen Vogue is fun, it's not as addictive as LB. However, Jason tries to get back together with LC on tonight's episode so we are definitely tuning in to see how he won her back since we know they are still together. Here's a sneak peak to get you in the mood.

In case you missed last week's episode, check out the recap after the jumpread more

LC and Heidi learn to deal with grunt work. Even though these girls have been spoiled they are learning that someone has to stuff envelopes and fly across the country simply to deliver a dress.

LC was sent to New York City on an errand for Teen Vogue to deliver a dress for the MJ fashion show. Once the delivery was complete she was sent back on the next flight out. In her cush town car on her way to the airport she complains to Heidi that she doesn't know how she will handle her demanding internship and school. The tiring and disappointing trip is all forgotten when LC gets back to her apartment to find a message from Jason. He says he wants to catch up because he now lives in LA. Meanwhile, Heidi adjusts to the grind of a j-o-b in party promotions, and Audrina looks for love. Heidi wonders about paying her dues at her new job since she didn't realize she'd have to pick up sandwiches. Life is tough in the real world, especially for these girls.

Anderson Blogs About Angelina

PopSugar — Mon, 19 Jun 2006 13:12:26 -0700

We have only one more day to reminisce about Britney's poor Dateline interview before we get hung up on the Anderson Cooper/Angelina Jolie interview. Cooper blogs about how he got lucky to score Jolie. He also wrote more flattering comments about Jolie below:

I'm not sure what I expected before I met her, but to say I was impressed would be an understatement. She is smart, funny, self-deprecating, and intensely passionate about her children and her work on behalf of refugees.

Tuesday at 10 p.m. ET, you will hear Angelina Jolie talk about some of the experiences in refugee camps that have changed her life. Yes, you will also learn about Angelina's family -- Maddox and Zahara as well as Shiloh Nouvel -- but the focus of the interview is the plight of refugees. During the two-hour program, we will take you to the frontlines of some of the worst humanitarian crises in the world.

Who knows, maybe all of those tuning in to learn more about Brad, Maddox, Zahara & Shiloh will learn a little something about World Refugee Day also.

Anderson Gets Angelina

PopSugar — Fri, 16 Jun 2006 06:56:53 -0700

Beautiful blue eyes just scored a huge interview. Anderson Cooper is exploding these days. Tuesday on CNN he has the first interview with Angelina Jolie. "She talks about baby Shiloh, Brad and her passion for refugee relief." What about Maddox and Zahara? Why has everyone forgotten about them so quickly? Anyway, set those TiVo's for Anderson Tuesday at 10 PM.

Britney on Dateline Tonight

PopSugar — Thu, 15 Jun 2006 08:56:45 -0700

Tonight marks one of the first times I will watch Dateline. Why? Well, Ms Brit is going to smile, laugh and cry for us in her tell-all Matt Lauer interview. She'll tell us about her new "security guard," the driving incident (because she's from the country), and lots on her happy marriage. She is not afraid to admit she is an "emotional wreck right now" and how it's "nice to have my husband there to keep me company."

Here's another sample of tonight's interview on why she loves Kevin:

Lauer: What do you see in him? What is it about Kevin that makes you love him?
Spears: Itâ€™s very simple. Women complicate everything. Heâ€™s so simple. His simplicity and just heâ€™s like a boy. He just, you know, and he cares. He cares so much and his heart is awesome. He has a really big heart and I love that.

And now here's more of tonight's show. Watch and Enjoy
