Are You Getting Tired of Competition Dance Shows?

BuzzSugar — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 17:00:00 -0800

So You Think You Can Dance is now in full swing, and Dancing With the Stars is nearing its season end, but it looks like there won't be any time of the year when you have to go without a dance competition show. It's just been announced that Kathy Griffin has signed on to host Let's Dance, where stars re-enact famous dance routines from pop culture. While it sounds kind of awesome, I feel overloaded with similar news, since Oxygen has just given its competition reality show Dance Your Ass Off a new season.

I love a good dance show (and good dance movie), but I worry this may be too much of a good thing. Are we in competition dance show overload?

Blake Adds a Dash of Color to the Emmys Red Carpet

PopSugar — Sun, 20 Sep 2009 23:54:04 -0700

There were many gorgeous fashions on display last night on the red carpet at the Emmy Awards. In the first installment of our look at what the ladies wore there was a lot of black or white, but not at all basic - Amy Poehler went dark, January Jones picked a light color with a daring cutout bodice, and Chloe Sevigny had a little bit of both worlds with her polka dot number. Right now January has a slight lead in Fab's best dressed poll - who do you think deserves the title? Drew Barrymore switched things up a little with her peach gown, but it was Blake Lively who stopped traffic in her plunging Versace. Fab and Bella have the rundown on the style and beauty news of the night, and make sure to check back for the other half of our report on the ladies red carpet!

To see more from the carpet including Hayden Panettiere, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Jamie-Lynn Sigler and tons of others just read more.

VH1 Divas: Miley Calls Kanye Disrespectful, True Blood's Sam Takes on Twilight's Jacob, and Paula Channels Ellen!

PopSugar — Fri, 18 Sep 2009 07:45:00 -0700

The star-studded VH1 Divas kicked off last night at the Brooklyn Academy of Music, and new diva-inductees like Jennifer Hudson, Jordin Sparks, Miley Cyrus, and Kelly Clarkson walked the red carpet in their glamorous gowns. Lauren Conrad and Whitney Port looked gorgeous and sparkly, and we'll have more on LC's possible LA Candy movie deal later. Miley weighed in on the Taylor/Kanye incident, calling him out as disrespectful. Kelly also had some things to say about it as well as the Paula/Ellen change on American Idol. Sam Trammell, who plays Sam Merlotte on True Blood, also told us he thinks his shape-shifter character could take on Taylor Lautner's Jacob - check out the interviews below!

Paula Abdul opened the night with a surprise performance and jokingly introduced the live show saying "I'm Paula Abdul and this is NOT American Idol." Later in the night she came out dressed as Ellen DeGeneres, dancing across the stage before saying "All kidding aside - [I have] nothing but love for Ellen, and I wish you the best of luck and congratulations on your new gig." There were many performances and duets to enjoy, like Jennifer Hudson and Stevie Wonder, as well as solos by all the divas like Jordin Sparks. Check out our interviews with Miley, Kelly, and Sam after the jump, and stay tuned for more from PopSugar Rush on the night's events!

To read the interviews and see TONS more photos, just read more.

Miley on Taylor/Kanye VMA incident: "I think it's just disrespectful so I think the best thing is - I probably would have done what [Taylor] did and just walk away from it because she looks better than he does."
Sam on Sam Merlotte vs. Jacob Black: "Is he tall? I think he's really tall . . . Oh is that just in the movie? I could probably take him because I could just turn into some huge animal and just take him. Yeah, I could just turn into a big bull and take him."
Kelly on whether she has words of encouragement for Taylor Swift: "I don't think she needs any. She handled it really well and she's just a really sweet girl. I love Taylor and she knows I do. I keep asking her to write me some songs, I love her writing. The whole situation in general was the straw that broke the camel's back. Not only that situation. Unfortunately Kanye was the straw that broke the camel's back. But there's a lot of crappy things that go on in the industry and it's just not right. This is supposed to be fun. We're not scientists, we're not doing anything mind-blowing. We should all be having fun and complimenting each other and lifting each other up. I don't get it."
Kelly on taking stage with Paula, and Paula leaving Idol: "I'm used to that! We've been doing off and on for seven years; we all end up at the same shows. So I'm so used to seeing her everywhere. I don't even know enough about [Paula leaving Idol] but I think she's probably ready. I mean they've done like nine seasons. It's pretty cool she's going off and doing something on her own and right after it she's hosting VH1 Divas. Oh my God, she's performing and I saw rehearsals and it's insane. I'm like a 12-year-old again and singing 'Straight Up.' We're all dying backstage."

The first ladies of the music industry came together for VH1 Divas at Brooklyn Academy of Music in New York yesterday.

My friends at theFABlife have even more backstage gossip.

Reality Check: Lipo Won't Make You Look Like Jennifer Aniston

FitSugar — Fri, 11 Sep 2009 04:30:30 -0700

It's not uncommon for women to be unhappy with a part of their appearance - a wide nose, a saggy belly, or lumpy tush. Some women learn to embrace their imperfections, while others opt for plastic surgery.

In her new memoir, Official Book Club Selection: A Memoir According to Kathy Griffin, the actress, 48, shows a photo of her botched liposuction. She decided to post the picture "because I wanted women to know when you get liposuction, trying to be Jennifer Aniston, this is what it really looks like."

Kathy got her first nose job at 26 and has spent years trying to change her appearance. She said, "I was on a television show and thought that I could be thinner and better and happier." But says she never felt that urge before, when she was a bank teller; her insecurities about how she looks stem from the pressures of being on TV. Although she felt it would make her happy, she wasn't the only one thinking she should get work done. Agents and casting directors advised Kathy to go under the knife too. The comedian isn't sure when it will end because, she admits, "I am always going to want to be Jennifer Aniston."

Kathy Griffin's Mom Manages Her "Faceplace"

GeekSugar — Tue, 04 Aug 2009 15:42:29 -0700

I don't know if you're familiar with the hilarity that is My Life on the D List, but during the latest season, I've been more and more impressed with Kathy Griffin's online domination. Not only is she all over Twitter, but she's got a pretty active Facebook page. Or should I say "Faceplace"?

In a recent episode, Kathy "hired" her mom Maggie to manage her Facebook page. Hilarity ensues as Maggie tries to navigate the social site and find her way around her incognito Macbook Pro (I can spot you from a mile away, baby). Check out the clip above and say "awww" for all those moms and grandmas who just want to connect with you online . . . even when they aren't getting paid.
