What to Netflix: New DVD Tuesday

BuzzSugar — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 06:30:00 -0800

It's Tuesday, so you know what that means - new DVD releases just in time for the Thanksgiving break! I've already shared some fresh music picks, but here are three movies to add to your Netflix queue for the weekend.

Funny People

Adam Sandler plays a comedian who tries to turn his life around and befriend a past love (Leslie Mann) after being diagnosed with a blood disorder; Seth Rogen steps in as his idealistic assistant. Both men turn in solid performances in Funny People, and there are laughs, even though this is way more serious than director Judd Apatow's previous work. One of my complaints in the theater was that it was much too long, but that's the good thing about DVDs - you can always hit pause and go back later.

The single disc version includes a gag reel and a feature commentary with Apatow, Rogen, and Sandler. (Normally I don't watch with the commentary on, but in this case, I might just tune in for their wise cracks.) The special two-disc collector's version is loaded with extras, including a 13-year old Seth Rogen doing stand-up!

Four Christmases

I love Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon, and while they don't necessarily have any sparks in Four Christmases, they still serve up a cute comedy. The pair star as a couple stuck visiting four sets of relatives around the holidays - his mom, her mom, his dad, her dad. And while it's not the funniest or most charming film that either actor has done, I still had a few laughs, especially thanks to the supporting cast of quirky characters (Jon Favreau and Kristin Chenoweth in particular). Even if it doesn't stack up against the classics in my holiday movie faceoff, it's worth trying if you're looking to get into the spirit of the season.

Angels and Demons

Tom Hanks fans have Angels and Demons to look forward to. The actor is incredibly long-winded in the follow-up film to The DaVinci Code, but at least he's no longer sporting that ridiculous bouffant hairdo. This time, Robert Langdon tries to save the Vatican from an ancient group known as the Illuminati. Personally, I was bored by the first half when I saw the film in theaters, but the second part is actually fun - so if you catch it at home, you may want to fast forward a bit to get to the good stuff.

Special features include behind-the-scenes featurettes.

Blake and Robin Have the Stars of Nine Supporting Pippa Lee

PopSugar — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 07:45:00 -0800

The leading ladies of The Private Lives of Pippa Lee hit the red carpet in NYC on Saturday evening. Blake Lively didn't address rumors she's going into business with Victoria Beckham as she smiled for the cameras, while her boyfriend Penn Badgley mingled with fellow Gossip Girl actor Chace Crawford behind the scenes. Robin Wright Penn, meanwhile, showed off her new dark hairdo as she posed alongside Julianne Moore and Keanu Reeves. The film's writer and director, Rebecca Miller, brought along her husband Daniel Day-Lewis. He, in turn, was accompanied by a few of his costars in Nine, like Penelope Cruz and Marion Cotillard. Both films hit the box office in the coming weeks, but it looks like the two casts have nothing but support for each other.

Rihanna Steps Out With a Buzz in NYC

PopSugar — Fri, 17 Jul 2009 02:00:55 -0700

Rihanna showed off her new hairdo yesterday after lunch at NYC's Da Silvano. She's spending lots of time in the city these days, despite her house hunting in LA just a few months ago. Rih's been hard at work on her forthcoming album, but she also has another project in the works - she's set to be featured in a big spread in the September edition of Italian Vogue.

Rihanna: A Fashion Metamorphosis

FabSugar — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 04:00:22 -0800

Enter into the world of Rihanna. Since 2005, the Barbadian beauty caught my attention with her catchy songs, and even more so, her megawatt style. When Rihanna first hit the scene, she stayed within the sexy singer realm via colorful body-con frocks and separates. As the years went along, she took a turn towards high fashion. After attending numerous runway shows, Rihanna developed an edgier sense of dressing - who can forget those star shaped pasties - and started donning clothes and accessories from the likes of Chanel, Alexander Wang, and Rodarte, to name a few. Despite a tough year, the songstress continues to impress me with her daring in-your-face ensembles and experimental hairdos. Let's take a look at Rihanna's astounding fashion metamorphosis.

Thoughts on the High Glitz: Glamourous or Heinous?

babysugar — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 12:02:55 -0800

It is natural that every parent thinks her child is the most darling being on the planet. It is a special kind of mom, a stage mama, who takes it to the next level by entering her children into the world of pageants. The bouffant hairdos, expensive gowns, spray tans, and makeup kits are all part of the up-do that will turn her child into a star. And while many mommies are quick to judge these families for participating in the hoopla, there are clearly enough people to keep the industry ticking. Love it or hate it, TLC's Toddlers and Tiaras has a loyal viewership. And now there's a coffee table book on the market titled High Glitz. In it author Susan Anderson captures the transformation of child to beauty queen. It may make some stomachs turn while it provides inspiration to others. Will the text be like the show - a train wreck you just can't turn away from? Tell us below!

Love It or Hate It? Victoria Beckham's Voluminous Waves

BellaSugarUK — Mon, 02 Nov 2009 07:30:00 -0800

At this weekend's Los Angeles Laker's basketball game, Posh and her precious brood gathered on their amazing floor seats to check out the action.

Victoria, dressed in grey skinny jeans and a tiny top was showing off more than just her outfit and handsome hubby. In fact, the singer, clothing designer and cover model was debuting a longer and looser hairstyle than we're used to seeing on her. Could it be extensions, or perhaps just growth that she's been keeping tucked away behind all of her Alice bands this past year?

Vote on whether or not you like her new hairdo below.

How We Met Alyson's New Hairdo

Molly — Tue, 29 May 2007 17:10:10 -0700

Alyson Hannigan took advantage of her hiatus from How I Met Your Mother by showing off her new hairdo in Malibu this weekend. I think it looks good, if not a little heavy for the summer months, and it helps make for a pretty cute picture of her out shopping with her husband. It took a while not to just see her as Willow from Buffy, but now I see these and kind of wonder where Marshall is. And when Barney is going to show up, because he rules.

Do You Prefer Daniel Craig With or Without Facial Hair?

BellaSugarUK — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 07:00:00 -0700

Last night in New York City, handsome British superstar Daniel Craig was spotted at a benefit for Orphan's sporting some serious facial hair. I'm used to my favourite 007 looking clean, neat and dapper, however, I'm quite warming up to Daniel's moustache. I find it kind of sexy in an older, Tom Selleck sort of way. How do you feel about hairy hunks, and in particular, Daniel's new upper lip hairdo?

Which Hair Colour Do You Like Most on Mandy Moore?

BellaSugarUK — Wed, 21 Oct 2009 04:00:00 -0700

At a denim fashion event last night in Los Angeles, American singer, actress and newlywed Mandy Moore showed off her shorter and darker new hairdo. I think she kinda looks like a rocker-chick here, a totally different style and colour than we're used to seeing on such a sweet type of gal. Below are also photos of her a few months ago with blonde, chestnutty-auburn and stawberry-blonde hair. Which of these colours do you like best on Mandy?
