My, what a couple of weeks can do. Regardless of what side of the aisle you're on, most agree Obama was asleep at the switch for much of the first presidential debate. As was expected, Obama came out swinging last night, but the debate was so close that everyone is saying this morning that their guy won. Here’s a recap of the moments that kept us from falling asleep last night...

In a culture of reality and tabloid TV, some celebs have gotten mighty creative in getting and keeping our attention. Exploitation and cheap dog-and-pony-show tricks rule the day. While we’ve become desensitized to most antics, some still make us say, “They did whaaaaat?” Here are some folks who just need to step away from the camera for a few days…

And now, Deep Thoughts by Brad Pitt

Kat Hobza — Mon, 15 Oct 2012 09:29:00 -0700

Brad Pitt has got cool down to a science. He’s engaged to Angelina Jolie, he’s rescued orphans, given millions to charity, and is a talented actor. Lately though, we’re seeing less “humble Brad” and more “the world according to Brad.” Have those glasses gone to his head? Read through Brad’s latest musings and decide for yourself...

Pink's new video "Try" is a hit -- or in this case, a backhand

Kat Hobza — Wed, 10 Oct 2012 08:12:00 -0700

No one ever accused Pink of sugar-coating. And that is why this seemingly fringe artist is so relatable, because she’s not really fringe at all. She either speaks to the women who say exactly what they think, or she’s the voice of most of us who play nice. Either way, her new video left us with a few questions/observations...

Kat Hobza — Thu, 04 Oct 2012 09:44:00 -0700

RiRi has been spotted with bad boy Chris Brown… again? Still? Who can keep track? Do you need to be told that going back to a guy who tossed you around the car is never a good idea? Here is the “Don’t do it!” memo that Rihanna obviously isn’t getting with specific reasons on why getting back with Chris Brown is an awesomely bad idea…

Kat Hobza — Thu, 04 Oct 2012 07:23:00 -0700

A CNN poll reveals that 67 percent of those surveyed feel Romney performed better in the first debate of the 2012 presidential election than President Obama. Despite where you stand politically, that sentiment is hard to refute. Here is how Romney kicked Obama’s butt...

Pitch Perfect: Why Rebel Wilson is our new hero

Kat Hobza — Wed, 03 Oct 2012 09:28:00 -0700

What’s not to love about an Australian actress/comedian who says her b*tch bling was given to her by her grandma and who shakes her chubby groove-thing on Jay Leno while bellowing out a Lady Gaga tune? We’re in love with Rebel, and here’s why you should be, too…

Arnold Schwarzenegger: Politicians who dig side action

Kat Hobza — Mon, 01 Oct 2012 14:53:00 -0700

This list would be shorter if it were titled, “Politicians who don’t dig side action.” What is it about politicians and infidelity that seems to go hand-in-hand? And if our politicians’ wives and families can’t trust them, why should we? Here’s a collection of some of the more notorious offenders…

Lady Gaga: Waving her middle finger at physical flaws

Kat Hobza — Thu, 27 Sep 2012 12:34:00 -0700

Lady Gaga should be the artist who young people love but who annoys the rest of us. If anyone else wore a meat dress to an awards show, we’d dismiss them as an attention-mongering freak. But Gaga has real talent, takes the high road whenever the aging and hostile-about-it Madonna takes a jab, and now she’s on a crusade to reshape our body image issues…

Macy Gray: Ms. Funk talks music, movies and her teen trio

Kat Hobza — Wed, 26 Sep 2012 11:39:00 -0700

When many of us think of Macy Gray, we think of a woman who has fabulous funked-up hair that would look ridiculous on the rest of us, we think of Prince-esque fashion and a music empire that has been built around a one-of-a-kind raspy voice.

Kat Hobza — Mon, 24 Sep 2012 09:15:00 -0700

Gauze isn’t just for weddings and archways anymore. Last night at the Emmys, the fabric of choice was sheer, see-through, and at times, confusing. In some instances this flowing fabric rocked; at others it flopped. Here are the red carpet gauze winners and non-winners…

Jennifer Aniston, pregnant again? Ads that make us giggle

Kat Hobza — Fri, 21 Sep 2012 13:41:00 -0700

The biggest advantage to having a DVR -- outside of being able to record your favorite shows -- is fast-forwarding through the commercials. And ad execs and marketing gurus know it. That’s why these crafty folks are rolling up their sleeves and producing television commercials we actually want to see, even if they’ve been recorded. Here are a few examples:
