The Daily Faves

Have you had your Daily fix today?







Last night at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards I lost my faith in Awards shows.
Was I shocked at Lady Gaga’s ego-tastic entrance? No.
Was I shocked that people of utterly no cause to be at the Grammys would be there (Snookie, Kim Kardashian, Justin Guarini…exactly.) No.
But what did shock me was that the recipient of the Best new Artist Award. Esperanza Spalding, Who the hell are you? I am sure you are a great talent and musical ingenue but no one knows who you are thus making me believe you are not worthy of “Best New Artist” . Am I upset it didn’t go to Justin Bieber who has charmed the world with his insanely hot underage looks and sensational voice?, YES. But more so I believe Drake deserved the award. Drake has been on every top hip-hop track this year, along with being beyond talented and creative. I am deeply saddened by the Grammys this year and really, really, don’t want to see Lady Gaga ever again.

One-stop shop and literally one of my favorite stores, Walmart, is about to add a new line to their beauty aisles, only this one is not for lookin’ good at the club, it’s for lookin’ good…..
at recess?


GeoGirl is a beauty line aimed at the ” Tweens” of America, specifically 8-12 year olds. The line which has been stirring up controversy, due to the issue of contributing to the “over-sexualising” of children, will offer mascara, blush, face shimmer and lipstick, all of which are natural and “eco-friendly”. But here is the kicker, the line is supposedly “Anti-aging”. Anti-aging for 8 year olds?


According to the dailymail, the lines marketing team states the following;


“the formulas are designed for ‘young skin’ and contain natural ingredients like white willow bark, chamomile, lavender and calendula, as well as anti-oxidants which are said to prevent aging.”


While I doubt the goal of the line is to create anti-aging results in the children, the ingredients are there. Hitting shelves February 21st, the brand is set to replace my girls Mary-Kate and Ashley’s brand which was a long standing beauty brand for youth at Walmart.

I personally don’t find a problem with this. Every little girl likes to wear play make-up and this brand just offers parents a little comfort in knowing that the tons of gunk all over their little girls face (and on her teeth) is natural and chemical free. It’s only if the parents let their kids wear it out of the house and/or makes the child feel the make-up is making them more beautiful that negative implications will arise.
As for the ‘anti-aging” that’s just a coincidence of the ingredients containing anti-oxidants. Little Katie or whatever your daughters name is has anti-oxidants in her morning OJ. Is she is drinking it purposely at breakfast to keep her 10 year old glow?! gasp!- Gimme a break. It’s all in good fun. Not at all like the girl above, now that’s just weird.

This picture made my day, hope it brings a smile to your face as well, because it is so bizarre.

*Bieber and Ozzy are filming a commercial for Best Buy that I believe will air during the SuperBowl.

Mila Kunis arrived at the SAG Awards in LA Sunday looking ravishing in her red Alexander McQueen. Mila is set to play myself in the movie of my life (production date to be determined of course).
And just so you know, Jennifer Lopez will play the older (future) version of me. Yeah it’s gonna be a great movie :)

Justin T made time to sign an autograph for his oldest fan Sunday night at the SAG Awards. The Social Network didn’t leave with any awards last night, but this Granny left happy.

I for one am incredibly sick of Kim Kardashian. Even her name, how it rolls off the tongue and is quite literally in every sentence uttered by those uber important celebrity gossip pundits; Ryan Seacrest, Harvey Levin, and the
like < insert eye roll here<. First of all she tries tooooo hard. I have never seen anyone in my life wear so much makeup and hair extensions at every moment of every day. At least Khloe and Kourtney keep it real. But back to the question at hand, why is she at the Screen Actor Guild Awards?? I see her everywhere as it is, I don’t want her squeezing her fat ass into my accredited award shows. Stick to the MTV Awards and Teen Choice Awards where you belong KK. And PS. This is not your finest look I’m sorry to say, I would stay away from the purple, that is unless you were going for the Barney look.

So I am 27 years old. But feel free to call me Grandma.

As a twenty-something you might think I would see a show of this sort of nature as cool and modern, but as an incredibly conservative person I am appalled and did nothing short of filing an FCC complaint when I saw only previews of this show Skins on MTV. A show like this would be fine on Showtime or HBO (although shows built upon sex don’t appeal to me as entertainment in the slightest and I don’t understand the necessity of it). Anyway, MTV’s demographic is somewhere between 14 and 20 I’m sure, and thats where I have a problem. This is the exact age of people who should not be watching this show. It portrays being a teen whore and doing drugs as ample ways to spend a friday evening. Now regardless if teens do this sort of thing anyway ( as I am not far off from that age and remember it well) I can’t imagine the level of increase in this behavior that would have resulted from a show like this being on to tell us we were simply doing what was normal across the teen board of America. Puh-leeze. Get this shit off tv. I can only brace myself for what will be on TV in 20 years at this rate.
But as I saw today on Yahoo news I am not the only one disgusted. In the article among the mention of ads being pulled and general moral outcry there was also statements like ;


“According to a story on the front page of today’s New York Times, executives at the network have expressed concerns that content in forthcoming episodes could expose the company to charges of child pornography. ”



Thats right Skins, your shows done. Don’t let the door kick you in your bad role model asses. Peace.

The 2011 Golden Globes had a lot of hits in terms of fashion. Below are a few of my favorites. The theme of the evening was neutral tones and a lot of green (which I loved).

Tomorrow, well technically tonight, are the Golden Globes. Up for Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor are Jesse Eisneberg and my new #1 celeb boyfriend Andrew Garfield. The categories are as follows:



Best Actor in a Motion Picture, Drama
Jesse Eisenberg, “The Social Network”
Colin Firth, “The King’s Speech”
James Franco, “127 Hours”
Ryan Gosling, “Blue Valentine”
Mark Wahlberg, “The Fighter”



Best Supporting Actor in a Motion Picture
Christian Bale, “The Fighter”
Michael Douglas, “Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps”
Andrew Garfield, “The Social Network”
Jeremy Renner, “The Town”
Geoffrey Rush, “The King’s Speech”



The early predictions seem to forecast the winners being Christian Bale for The Fighter (understandably, even though I will still be rooting for Andrew) and Colin Firth for Best Actor in The Kings Speech. I really believe Jesse Eisenberg did an amazing job playing Mark Zuckerberg. I will truly be upset if he doesn’t win considering the extent that which he nailed an extremely difficult character. In the end though I am just happy both boys were nominated. They deserve it.

My girl Farrah Abraham, of 16 and Pregnant and Teen Mom fame (my fav shows), has apparently used some of that MTV paycheck to give her bosom a boost.
The 19 year old seen in Orlando, Fl recently seems to definitely have had plastic surgery to enhance and enlarge her breasts. Farrah was an aspiring model at one point and from the above undated photo from a modeling job her breasts seem to be at least 2 cups smaller. Although she is quite young, it is good to see that she didn’t get carried away like another MTV reality starlet that need not be mentioned.
