What's Your Favorite Farrelly Bros. Movie?

BuzzSugar — Mon, 08 Oct 2007 16:43:20 -0700

The Heartbreak Kid's so-so box office showing over its opening weekend has caused some people to wonder about the relevance of the Farrelly Brothers these days. It does seem to be the Age of Apatow, and perhaps the Farrelly Brothers' particular brand of comedy is something of the past. Yet their movies undeniably appeal to some people, and I myself have really enjoyed a few of them.

What about you? Which of the Farrelly Brothers' flicks have you liked the most? (I'm going to go ahead and leave off some of their less popular titles, like Shallow Hal.)

Look Book Love: Nicholas K, Fall '09

I already own three green parka-like jackets, but there's no resisting this shorter, sherpa-lined version from Nicholas K. However, that's not the only piece worth swooning over from the Fall collection. Step into Nicholas K's world of cozy knits, structured coats, rad flannels, silky frocks, and tailored pants. These pieces are ideal for the indie city girl looking to add a little extra flavor to her repertoire. There's something about the meticulously cut jackets and grungy vibe that just exudes a carefree attitude. I can already picture Ashley or Mary-Kate Olsen rocking some of these goodies - what about you?

Kim Clijsters Wins One For Working Mothers Everywhere

LilSugar — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 12:30:17 -0700

Serve one up for all of the mothers out there. The decision to return to work after the birth of a baby can be hard. For professional athletes, the preparation requires more than just emotional strength but physical preparation.

Once ranked the number-one tennis player in the world, Kim Clijsters retired from the sport in May 2007 with the intent to marry her boyfriend and start a family. In February 2008, she gave birth to daughter Jada Ellie before announcing her intention to return to the tennis the following year.

This afternoon, Clijsters topped Li Na to move on to the U.S. Open's semi-final round for the first time since 2005. After Clijsters's recent win over third-ranked Venus Williams, CBS Sports' Mary Jo Fernandez asked the mother, 26, about returning to work with a child in tow.

Check out what the athletic mama had to say:

On how hard it was to return. I've been working really hard the last 7-8 months, and I'm enjoying it. I think that's really something important for myself as well, as long as I can focus on tennis, but on the outside have fun as well. Tennis is a great sport, but I'm just happy that we can have a family and I can balance both.
On how she balances work and family. We have help, so that's great, but it's fun. . . . To your daughter, it doesn't matter if you win or lose, she's just happy to see me and that's great.
On how she prepared to re-enter the game: I have to admit that I only just started watching tennis at the start of this year, because I didn't really have that much time. With the baby running around, I was just happy to sleep when she was sleeping as well.

It's Easy Being Green For Cameron Diaz in Marie Claire

PopSugar — Wed, 03 Jun 2009 11:00:00 -0700

Cameron Diaz scored another July magazine cover, this time on Marie Claire. Like in her Vogue spread, Cameron talked about both her new movie, My Sister's Keeper, and the activism that's made her one of the most eco-friendly celebs. She took someone from the magazine along as she produced a short, exclusive video - check it out here - about what we can all do to help the planet, while also discussing her work, life, and fame. Here's more:

On being comfortable with her fame: "I just have a lot of friends. That's how I think of it. It's nice to see people smile . . . Every once in a while, you'll have those moments when people give you the stink eye. And you're like, 'What the f*ck is your problem? What, am I horrific-looking?' But really what they're thinking is, Am I seeing who I think I'm seeing? It's just a shock . . . I don't have any problem with being famous. I've completely made peace with being recognizable and people wanting to peek into my life in some way."
On her early days: "I had the good fortune of becoming famous once I had already lived a life, traveled a lot, stood in line, had to ask people to help me, had to find a way to make something work, pay the rent, scrape by . . . I used to do $4 a day with a girlfriend. We would get two tacos and split a Coke."
On this film project: "I was like, I'm going to get a camera, and I'm going to mobile-home it across the country, and I'm just going to find out what people are thinking. What would it take for the common person to become engaged. There's a lot of great minds out there who are thinking about this, who are coming up with solutions. Not to crash anybody's party, but to actually make the party better. Really, that's what it's about - that's my participation in it."
