American Idol 7 Recap - April 30, 2008
And then there were 4.
American Idol 7 started off the night with the Idols singing a bunch of songs in tribute to Neil Diamond. It was incredibly amateur and awful at best. For a show with so many viewers and a sh*tload of money, you'd think a little professionalism would be in order.
Then Ryan Seacrest walked us into a recap of last night's performances; Paula Abdul's screw up didn't make the cut.
But upon returning, Ryan mentioned the fiasco and said that, despite all the rumors circulating on the Internet about Paula, she is part of the Idol family and they are not true. I knew it; they're not prescribed.
Then it was time to call out a couple of contestants:
Jason Castro: You are safe
David Archuleta: You are safe
Wow, there's a freakin' shocker. After the commercial we returned to a great big promo for So You Think You Can Dance, which airs on May 22, 2008. Then it was time to call out more contestants:
David Cook: You are safe
Syesha Mercado: You are in the bottom 2
Brooke White: You are in the bottom 2
Natasha Bedingfield showed up to promote herself and sang "Take Me Away," which is a great song, by the way.
Ryan then took some calls from viewers and one of them was a woman who kissed Simon Cowell when he was all of 8 years old. He called her his first crush. It was nice to see Simon blush, although his chest is always red.
We returned to witness another Ford ad; it was cute but nothing spectacular.
Neil Diamond then performed "Pretty Amazing Grace" off his new album. It was like watching an old fart at a child's party.
Finally, it was time to decide one person's fate.
Brooke White was sent home tonight. And boy did she ever have a meltdown. It was touching and brought tears to my eyes.

American Idol 7 Recap - April 29, 2008
Tonight was Neil Diamond night on American Idol 7, as the popular singer mentored the Top 5 through their two song choices. Of note, some chick was holding up a sign in the audience that read "My husband has a man-crush on Seacrest." Sweetie, your husband doesn't have a man-crush; he's a flamer.
As well, after the first round of songs, the judges were asked to give their opinions of the first songs sung, Paula Abdul, the sober one of the bunch, goes on a tangent about how she enjoyed Jason Castro's first performance but thought the second one was better. Problem is that the second one had yet to happen. Give her another bourbon.
Now let's get to the performances:
Jason Castro
Sang: Forever in Blue Jeans AND September Morn
Ugh! Please someone put this guy out of his misery. The redundancy of his sound shone through this evening because he had two performances and sounded exactly the same in both, despite the varying lyrics. It was atrocious, to say the least.
David Cook
Sang: I'm Alive AND All I Really Need Is You
The first performance was blah so I spent my time wondering why the letters AC were on his jacket and guitar. Then I figured that it was his brother's initials (he's suffering from brain cancer). But David managed to knock it out of the ballpark with his second performance. It was sex incarnate.
Brooke White
Sang: I'm A Believer AND I Am... I Said
Brooke is, how do you say? Strange. She comes out for her first performance belting out the song essentially made popular by the recent Shrek movies, and it was laughable at best. But then she showed off why she's still there with her second performance, sitting by the piano and wearing her heart on her sleeve.
David Archuleta
Sang: Sweet Caroline AND America
Monotonous and predictable (God I hope his dad doesn't hunt me down and beat me), David sang the only way he knows how and the judges ate it up. His second performance was a very smart choice (Simon Cowell agrees) and I'm sure he'll sail on through to the Top 4.
Syesha Mercado
Sang: Hello Again AND Thank the Lord For the Nighttime
I thought it bizarre that Neil Diamond asked her for a hug after she showed him what she can do (he probably just wanted a good breast squish), but Syesha really showed off her talent tonight with two very different performances that were equally impressive. I think that Simon is right that she's going to be in the bottom tomorrow, but it's not because she's bad; it's because she's just not as popular as the rest of the crew.
My predictions for who's going home:
Syesha Mercado (but I wish it was Jason Castro)

The Bachelor London Calling Recap - April 28, 2008
And then there were 2.
We started off in beautiful Barbados where the weather was perfect but we never really got to see Matt Grant without his clothes on. Even when he swam, the chest and abs areas were avoided by the camera. I think someone needs to work on their pecs.
#1 Shayne
Matt met up with Shayne "Lamas" and the two went jet skiing and then jumped up and down on a water trampoline where Shayne got to show Matt just how flexible she was, splits and all. Guys just love that sort of thing.
Then during dinner, Shayne admitted that she was falling in love with Matt, and the sucker that he is, Matt believed it. He told her he was falling for her as well. The two spent the evening in the fantasy suite together and Shayne performed fellatio on him. Or so I'm guessing.
#2 Amanda
The couple started off by going zip riding (I think that's what it's called), and then had their dinner where Amanda got to tell Matt that, like, she really, like, is, like, falling for him, like, and she doesn't, like, not want to spend her, like, life with him. Ugh, it was so annoying.
Needless to say, they spent the evening in the fantasy suite and she likely talked his ear off the entire evening.
#3 Chelsea
The date started off awkwardly enough; Chelsea barely touched Matt the entire time, and he was feeling abandoned, especially considering the last two were on him like white on rice.
They started off the date by going snorkeling and it seemed that Matt was more intimate with a sea turtle than he was with Chelsea.
But then day turned to night and they had dinner; Chelsea admitted that she's been distant because she was having a tough time dealing with the fact that he was spending intimate time with 2 other girls.
Then she agreed to spend the night in the fantasy suite and changed into this sexy dress and became this vamped sex kitten that I always knew she could be. Needless to say, Matt had a hard on like nobody's business.
Rose Ceremony
Finally it was time for Matt to send one of the girls packing. Amanda was kicked off the show and boy, she didn't take it well.
She sat down at a bench with him, and like, couldn't, like, understand why, like, he did this. He explained that he felt closer to the other two although he meant every word he said to her.
She told him she didn't believe him and said, "You're a complete douchebag for doing this." ABC censored the word douchebag, but last I checked douching was not a dirty thing (pun not intended). Matt was at a loss for words, probably because douchebag is not part of his lexicon. Bullocks.
Next week, all the girls return to the show for a Q&A period, which will be fun, no doubt, and Shayne and Chelsea get to meet Matt's parents. Stay tuned.
Celebrity Flaw of the Day - Angelina Jolie Veiny Arms
Angelina Jolie is virtually perfect; you really can't make any complaints about her looks because she is so incredibly beautiful. And although I tend to think she has really, really long arms and Arsenio Hall hands, that is not what I'm going to mention. Instead, take a look at the protruding veins on this stunner's arm. It's enough to make a junkie salivate.

Sidney Crosby Biography
Born to parents Troy and Trina Crosby in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, on August 7, 1987, it was obvious that Sidney Crosby was destined to become a great hockey player.
Growing up in the small town of Cole Harbour with his sister Taylor, Sidney began playing hockey in the basement of his home with his father at the very young age of 2½.
By 3 years old, Sidney put on some ice skates and began playing ice hockey; although he was limited due to his immaturity, it was obvious that he loved the sport.
Sidney Crosby joins Rimouski Oceanic
When Sidney turned 7, the sports press got wind of his talent and word was out that Nova Scotia had a potential hockey great on its hands. As he got older, the press was keeping its eye on Sidney, and in 2001, he was featured on Hockey Day in Canada on the CBC network (a major network in Canada).
In 2002, Sidney’s sophomore year in high school was spent at Shattuck-St. Mary’s prep school in Faribault, Minnesota, where Crosby blew everyone away with his hockey skills as he managed to score 72 goals in only 52 games - a major feat.
To no one’s surprise, Crosby was selected first overall by the Rimouski Oceanic at the QMJHL (Quebec Major Junior Hockey League) on June 9, 2003, further proving that he was destined for greatness.
Wayne Gretzky praises Crosby
If that weren’t enough, when Wayne Gretzky, who is arguably one of the best hockey players in the history of the game, was asked if he thought any hockey player would ever break his records, he answered that he believed that Sidney Crosby would.
During the 2003 season, Crosby was the only player under 18 years of age who was invited to play on the Canadian Junior Hockey Team and on December 23rd, Crosby became the first 16-year-old to score for the World Junior Hockey Championship. His goal-scoring puck can be seen at the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto.
Continuing his hockey play with Rimouski throughout 2004 and 2005, it was on July 30, 2005, eight days before his 18th birthday, that Crosby was chosen as the first draft pick overall by the Pittsburgh Penguins in the NHL (National Hockey League).
Crosby named Rookie of the Month
That October, Crosby was named the NHL’s Rookie of the Month, and by April 2006, he had become the youngest player in NHL history to score 90 points with a four-point effort.
So far in the 2006-2007 season, Crosby is showing what the hype is all about by scoring in almost every game he plays and setting up his teammates in some awesome goal-scoring plays.
In January 2008, Crosby suffered a sprained ankle and missed the next 21 games his team played. He finally returned in March 2008, but then sat out another 7 games because he felt his ankle wasn’t completely healed.
This is just the beginning for Sidney Crosby; as he continues to hone his play with the NHL, there’s no doubt that his name will be alongside the other greats of hockey.

Even then, you are still able to get salon quality Sedu hair at home, provided you need to know the following tricks.
- Any dirt or grease in the hair will be 'baked' into it by the heat of the iron – and it will cause damage to the hair cuticle, so wash your hair before you start any hair do.
- If you use hairspray, buy a good brand. The better products hold hair without it being crunchy and 'set' and will hold your hair until you choose to brush it out!
- Applying serum to wet hair prior to drying, or to dry hair after styling doesn't just give a great shine. It helps to lock moisture into your hair and improves condition
- A straightening iron can smooth the cuticles back down again and let them reflect light to give a lovely shine and a rejuvenated color!

Hair washing tips Here's Jen at Rodeo Drive Walk of style Awards with her new straight sedu hairstyle with sweeping bangs.
- Massage your hair gently – don't scrub at it. Wet hair is fragile and can break easily
- Rinse the shampoo out with hot water. This will open up the hair cuticle and allow the conditioner to penetrate well
- Use a 'product build-up' remover shampoo once every few washes. This will rid the hair of excess product which can dull the hair over time
Conditioning tips
- Always condition your hair after washing
- Before you apply your conditioner, squeeze as much water out of your hair as possible. If you don't do this, the conditioner will be diluted in your hair and won't be as effective
- Only apply conditioner to your hair from ear level down. This is to prevent a build-up of product in your crown area which will loose you volume in your finished style
- Once your conditioner has been rinsed out, give your hair another final rinse with cool water – or cold, if you can bear it! This helps to close the hair cuticle and lock moisture in
- Always use a wide-toothed comb on hair before blow drying. Don't ever brush it as this can easily cause damage

Detoxify Your Body - 8 Tips
By Tara Fraser
Wile some experts tout juice diets and the like, I believe that you can detoxify your body without starving yourself. As well, detoxifying is about cleansing in a natural way that you can live with. The last thing you want is to detoxify your body and feel murderous throughout the experience.
Detoxification is about cleansing your insides by stimulating your liver to purge toxins from your body, improve your blood circulation and eliminate these unwanted toxins from your body via your intestines, kidneys and pores.
So if you are of sound health but feel like your body needs a little kick so that you feel more peppy, here are some simple adjustments you can make to detoxify your body starting now.
Detoxify your body tip #1
Avoid certain foods
There are certain foods that are known to increase the amount of toxins in your body and if you want to detoxify your body, you should avoid them as often as possible.
These foods include:
While I wouldn’t ask you to cut these things out of your life for good, I do recommend that you eat them sparingly.
Detoxify your body & feel good
It’s not incredibly difficult to rid your body of impurities, but with today’s hustle and bustle lifestyle, it’s difficult to spend any time on ourselves. But with a little dedication, you can easily repair your insides and feel great from without.
Detoxify your body tip #2
Increase fiber intake
While it might take your body some getting used to at first, increasing your fiber intake is a great way to help your body get rid of unwanted toxins.
And you don’t need to start eating bowl after bowl of beans; you can start easy with fresh fruits and vegetables, the best of which are grapefruit, oranges, beets, cabbage, artichokes, broccoli, and seaweed. These foods should take up the bulk of your diet.
Detoxify your body tip #3
Drink green tea
Green tea is a wonder drink. Not only is it renowned for its antioxidant properties, it also increases energy. So whenever you get the chance, enjoy it hot or cold and fill up on this miracle drink.
Detoxify your body tip #4
Take some herbs
Milk thistle, burdock, yellow dock, red clover, and dandelion root all work to purify your bloodstream by improving your liver function. You don’t have to take them all, mind you; opt for one and spend a few days on it (consult your doctor before taking any herbs).
Burdock and yellow dock purify the blood. Dandelion root heals and ailing liver. Red clover is a diuretic that purportedly heals skin issues. Milk thistle cleanses and protects the liver. All these herbs can be found at natural food stores.
Detoxify your body tip #5
Drink clean water
If you’re not already downing 2 liters of water a day, then it’s time you got started. Water is the best body cleanser; although I do not recommend drinking tap water due to the myriad problems we constantly hear about from tainted waters.
Whether you opt to drink spring water or filtered water, you need to drink at least 2 liters a day, if not more. Don’t drink this amount in one sitting, however; you should be drinking water throughout your day, every day.
Detoxify your body tip #6
Get to a sauna
You can eliminate a whole lot of waste through perspiration. Although getting to a sauna may not be simple, when you want to detoxify your body, make it a point to head to one at least once.
If possible, after you sweat out the toxins, rinse off with some cold water to close off your pores.
Detoxify your body tip #7
Take up yoga
Okay, you don’t necessarily have to invest your time in a yoga class, although I highly recommend it simply because you will be taught the correct way to breathe. And while you might think that breathing is a simple enough technique, considering we do it to live, most people never pay attention to their breathing and fail to properly oxygenate their bodies.
Each evening, a few hours before you go to bed, sit on the floor with your legs crossed and your hands resting on your knees. Close your eyes and take a slow, deep inhale to the count of 10, hold it for a second and exhale deep and slowly to the count of 10. Repeat this 10 times every night. This will help the oxygen circulate more thoroughly throughout your body.
Detoxify your body tip #8
Exercise
As aforementioned, sweating is a fantastic way to detoxify your body. Rigorous exercise will also help your body eliminate toxins via your pores and help you to cleanse your system and purify your organs.
Try to get in about 1 hour of exercise every day. Not only is it good if you want to detoxify your body, it’s also good for your overall health and well-being.
If you’ve been feeling sluggish, fatigued or like hell lately, it’s possible that taking measures to detoxify your body is all you need to start feeling better about yourself.
Wile some experts tout juice diets and the like, I believe that you can detoxify your body without starving yourself. As well, detoxifying is about cleansing in a natural way that you can live with. The last thing you want is to detoxify your body and feel murderous throughout the experience.
Detoxification is about cleansing your insides by stimulating your liver to purge toxins from your body, improve your blood circulation and eliminate these unwanted toxins from your body via your intestines, kidneys and pores.
So if you are of sound health but feel like your body needs a little kick so that you feel more peppy, here are some simple adjustments you can make to detoxify your body starting now.
Detoxify your body tip #1
Avoid certain foods
There are certain foods that are known to increase the amount of toxins in your body and if you want to detoxify your body, you should avoid them as often as possible.
These foods include:
- Red meat
- Swordfish, shark, marlin (high mercury content)
- Caffeine
- Processed foods
- Hydrogenated fats
- Refined sugar (all sugars for that matter)
- Salt
- Alcohol
- Sodas
While I wouldn’t ask you to cut these things out of your life for good, I do recommend that you eat them sparingly.
Detoxify your body & feel good
It’s not incredibly difficult to rid your body of impurities, but with today’s hustle and bustle lifestyle, it’s difficult to spend any time on ourselves. But with a little dedication, you can easily repair your insides and feel great from without.
Detoxify your body tip #2
Increase fiber intake
While it might take your body some getting used to at first, increasing your fiber intake is a great way to help your body get rid of unwanted toxins.
And you don’t need to start eating bowl after bowl of beans; you can start easy with fresh fruits and vegetables, the best of which are grapefruit, oranges, beets, cabbage, artichokes, broccoli, and seaweed. These foods should take up the bulk of your diet.
Detoxify your body tip #3
Drink green tea
Green tea is a wonder drink. Not only is it renowned for its antioxidant properties, it also increases energy. So whenever you get the chance, enjoy it hot or cold and fill up on this miracle drink.
Detoxify your body tip #4
Take some herbs
Milk thistle, burdock, yellow dock, red clover, and dandelion root all work to purify your bloodstream by improving your liver function. You don’t have to take them all, mind you; opt for one and spend a few days on it (consult your doctor before taking any herbs).
Burdock and yellow dock purify the blood. Dandelion root heals and ailing liver. Red clover is a diuretic that purportedly heals skin issues. Milk thistle cleanses and protects the liver. All these herbs can be found at natural food stores.
Detoxify your body tip #5
Drink clean water
If you’re not already downing 2 liters of water a day, then it’s time you got started. Water is the best body cleanser; although I do not recommend drinking tap water due to the myriad problems we constantly hear about from tainted waters.
Whether you opt to drink spring water or filtered water, you need to drink at least 2 liters a day, if not more. Don’t drink this amount in one sitting, however; you should be drinking water throughout your day, every day.
Detoxify your body tip #6
Get to a sauna
You can eliminate a whole lot of waste through perspiration. Although getting to a sauna may not be simple, when you want to detoxify your body, make it a point to head to one at least once.
If possible, after you sweat out the toxins, rinse off with some cold water to close off your pores.

American Idol 7 Recap - April 23, 2008
And then there were 5.
While introducing the judges, Ryan Seacrest kissed Paula Abdul on the cheek and then kissed Simon Cowell on the head. Simon was in shock but he shouldn't be, he is, after all, the reason why Ryan is a millionaire and a mainstay Hollywood host.
So the Idols started off on American Idol 7 with an opening number entitled "All I Ask of You" and it bored me to death. Then we got a recap of what happened the evening before. Blah, blah, blah.
Ryan then sat down with Andrew Lloyd Webber to ask about the contestants, and I have to admit, this guy is seriously weird, with his hand gestures and constant rambling. Finally, Ryan asked him what he would call the song he would write for Paula and Simon and he gave two:
Time to Say Goodbye
How Can I Miss You if You Won't Go Away?
Priceless.
We returned from commercial to an ad the Idols did for Ford with the song "Tainted Love." It was great.
George W. Bush and his stepford wife had a message thanking everyone who donated to Idol Gives Back, especially considering his party sank every American dollar into the Iraq war.
Finally Ryan called out two contestants to go over the results:
David Cook - You are safe
David Archuleta - You are safe
Then we were forced to hear about past Idols who made it big in Broadway, in particular Tamyra Gray and Clay Aiken. Big whoop.
Leona Lewis then made an appearance and sang her big hit, "Bleeding Love," because Simon is backing her and is making sure to cover the entire US and get her name out there.
Then Ryan called out the remaining contestants:
Brooke White - You are safe (WTF?!?!?)
Syehsa Mercado - You are in the bottom 2
Jason Castro - You are safe
Carly Smithson - You are in the bottom 2
Of course, American Idol got smart about it and mde the girls sing before the final result to ensure that they could get the lyrics out.
Finally we were told who was leaving:
Carly Smithson was kicked off American Idol 7.
Stay tuned for next week, when the Top 5 have to perform Neil Diamond songs.

American Idol 7 Recap - April 22, 2008
Tonight's American Idol 7 episode featured Andrew Lloyd Webber's Broadway hits, so as you can imagine, it was quite excruciating, especially because Webber kept criticizing each contestant.
So here's how it went:
Syesha Mercado
Sang: One Rock'n'Roll Too Many from Starlight Express
Syesha was all kinds of sexy tonight and her performance was stellar, to say the least. She impressed the judges and viewers alike I'm certain. I did otice that she was barefoot and seemed to have unusually large feet. But I digress.
Jason Castro
Sang: Memory from Cats
Wow, was this ever a terrible performance. Jason just is not cut out for Broadway musicals, it's quite obvious. Nevertheless, he gave it the same old Jason Castro touch he does with every single song and I yawned my way through it.
Brooke White
Sang: You Must Love Me from Evita
This girl is starting to get on my last nerve. First off, she had to restart the song because she lost her lyric, then she stumbled through the song and her voice cracked throughout the song. Perhaps it was her way of giving the song her "touch" but it was definitely rough.
David Archuleta
Sang: Think of Me from Phantom of the Opera
Before he sang, Ryan Seacrest allowed a few tweens onstage so that they could give David a hug... how freakin' sweet. Then David broke into song and although it wasn't awful, it was, in the immortal words of Simon Cowell, "forgettable." And tonight, he resembled a Monchichi.
Carly Smithson
Sang: Jesus Christ Superstar
Although Carly was wearing a hideous dress, she sang the hell out of this song and i was a phenomenal performance. The judges loved her and she had a T-shirt that said "Simon Loves Me (this week)" which was quite fitting. I wonder if she had one that said "Simon thinks I suck eggs" handy in case he blasted her.
David Cook
Sang: Music of the Night from Phantom of the Opera
They obviously saved the best for last. And David did not disappoint. He didn't give the song his David twist, but he sang the crap out of this song and kept giving the camera his best "I want to take you bed" face. Hey, it worked for me.
So my predictions for the bottom 3 are:
Brooke White
Jason Castro
Carly Smithson
And Brooke White will be going home because she was awful.
So here's how it went:
Syesha Mercado

Celebrity Flaw of the Day - Jessica Alba Acne
I think that Jessica Alba is truly one of the hottest women in the world. She is sexy and cute all rolled up into one package. But even Jessica suffers a flaw. That's right, celebrity acne. Soon, she'll be doing those Proactiv commercials alongside Jennifer Love Hewitt and Vanessa Williams.

The Bachelor London Calling Recap - April 21, 2008
And then there were 3.
Tonight Matt Grant went to each of the 4 women's hometowns on The Bachelor London Calling.
#1 Shayne
Matt started off in Los Angeles, where he met Shayne's famous actor dad Lorenzo Lamas first (her parents are divorced). Off the bat, Lorenzo sold her out by telling Matt that she wanted to be on TV, but more than that, she wanted to be a star.
When Shayne made it clear that she's only there for Matt, Lorenzo back pedalled by saying he was just "testing" her. Mmm, hmm.
Then there was this moment between father and daughter that truly warranted an Emmy.
After that, Matt and Shayne were off to her mother's house, Michele Smith is her name, and boy was her mom a sight for a plastic surgeon's eyes. The woman gave Donnatella Versace a run for her money in the looks department. But alas, she was a very sweet woman with a genuine interest in her daughter's life.
#2 Chelsea
Next Matt headed off to Durango, Colorado to meet Chelsea's parents, and to be quite honest, nothing of real interest happened. Her dad gave her great advice and she made out with Matt like a champion before he split.
#3 Noelle
Matt then hopped on a bus to get to Loveland, Colorado (kidding, he probably took a private jet) to meet Noelle's parents. Again, they were wonderful, down to earth people who told their daughter that she was holding back too much and she should just go for it.
#4 Amanda
I was fooled into thinking this was real by the promos for the show, but it turns out that Amanda decided to hire actors to play her parents in order to play a joke on Matt, and boy was it hilarious!
First, her fake mom kept laughing at the weirdest times, making Matt feel awkward. Then her fake dad started asking if the 2 had been intimate already. And while Matt was outside trying to convince the fake dad that he cared for Amanda, fake mom went out and asked to be alone with him. She starting hitting on him by rubbing his chest and then trying to make out with him, at which point fake dd caught them and started freaking out.
At this point Amanda told him that he had been punked and he was a great sport about it. Then he met her real, and very normal parents, and the evening turned out to be quite pleasant.
Finally, it was time for Matt to pick his 3 women:
Shayne
Amanda
Chelsea
Noelle was kicked off and, I have to admit, she had the most elegant exit I have ever seen on the show.
Next week, the foursome is headed to Barbados so stay tuned.

Prom Hairstyles - Long Layers Style
If you have a long hairstyle and thinking of changing, and yet is quite reluctant to cut short. Then you can consider long layer hairstyles. This kind of hairstyle is suitable for those who love the look of long, Gisele-like hair, but want volume and versatility.
Before you start your haircut, you must inform your hairstylist that layers should start at about an inch below chin length. If it's too short and you'll end up with "The Rachel." Layer the back as well so you get movement and a nice curve throughout the hair.
That's it, you are now with this new long layers new look. But what next? Yes, the maintenance. In order to avoid straggly ends, get a trim every 3 months and don't over-wash your hair. Do you know that? Long layers actually look better a few days after washing.

Amy Sedaris Interesting Facts
When Amy Sedaris is not acting, she runs a cupcake and cheeseball business out of her home in Greenwich Village (Amy's Cupcakes).
Growing up, Amy Sedaris failed the first grade.
Growing up, Amy Sedaris failed the first grade.
Amy Sedaris Biography
Amy Sedaris was born on March 29, 1961, in Endicott, New York to parents Lou and Sharon Sedaris and was raised with her older siblings Lisa, David and Gretchen and younger sister Tiffany and younger brother Paul.
When Amy was quite young, however, before her youngest brother was even born, the family relocated to Raleigh, North Carolina, because her dad was transferred there by the company he worked for at the time (IBM).
Sedaris joins Second City Troupe
Amy grew up idolizing her older brother David Sedaris and wanted to emulate her own life after his, so when she graduated from Jesse O. Sanderson High School in 1980, it didn’t take long before her brother managed to lure her away from Raleigh and to Chicago.
With David’s help, Amy found herself enjoying comedy immensely and before she knew it, she had joined comedy’s Second City Troupe and became a mainstay on their stage.
While she performed there regularly, Amy did stints alongside Tim Meadows, Steve Carell, Stephen Colbert, and Paul Dinello, among others. She and her brother eventually developed their own regular piece of sketch comedy called “Talent Family,” which was quite popular among audiences.
Sedaris in Strangers With Candy
By the time the ‘90s rolled around, Amy found herself walking away from Chicago and heading toward New York, where she created her first TV show called Exit 57 with colleagues Colbert, Dinello and Mitch Rouse.
The show lasted for two seasons on Comedy Central and by 1997, Amy took a step onto the big screen, when she starred as a scholar on the film Commandments.
In 1998, Amy once again teamed up with the boys and created Strangers With Candy, another Comedy Central show that ended up with a cult following and garnered Amy tons of attention in her starring role as Geraldine “Jerri” Blank, an ex-con and ex-junkie.
Amy Sedaris writes Wigfield
Throughout her rising fame, though, Amy continued to work as a waitress between writing and starring on the show, and continuing to do a semi-annual Talent Family show alongside her brother.
Amy continued to get bit parts in movies like Six Days Seven Nights (1998), Jump Tomorrow (2001), Maid in Manhattan (2002), The School of Rock, Elf (both in 2003), Neurotica, and My Baby’s Daddy (both in 2004),
In between her movie roles in 2003, Amy also had some time to put together a book called Wigfield: The Can-Do Town That Just May Not with Dinello and Colbert. The trio turned the book into a play that same year, to much critical acclaim.
Sedaris in Dedication
By 2004, Entertainment Weekly placed Amy and her brother at No. 8 on the list of the 25 Funniest People in America.
Amy kept busy throughout 2005 starring in Bewitched, Stay, Chicken Little (as Foxy Loxy), and I Want Someone to Eat Cheese With.
In 2006, Amy brought her Jerri Blank character to the big screen in the Strangers With Candy: The Movie, although the movie may only be seen in a limited amount of theaters. But she can be seen in three other movies: Dedication, Snow Angels and Full Grown Men.
And in August 2006, Amy’s book, I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence, was available on bookstore shelves, and received stellar reviews from Publishers Weekly.
In October 2006, Amy guest-starred on NBC’s My Name Is Earl, and was featured in Dolly Parton’s 2007 video for “Better Get to Livin’.”
Amy Sedaris bakes cheeseballs
Currently, Amy lives with her pet rabbit Dusty in her Greenwich Village apartment, and when she’s not busy writing or starring in a film, play or short, or making audio versions of her brother’s books, you can find Amy baking cheeseballs and cupcakes, and living happily single.
When Amy was quite young, however, before her youngest brother was even born, the family relocated to Raleigh, North Carolina, because her dad was transferred there by the company he worked for at the time (IBM).
Sedaris joins Second City Troupe
Amy grew up idolizing her older brother David Sedaris and wanted to emulate her own life after his, so when she graduated from Jesse O. Sanderson High School in 1980, it didn’t take long before her brother managed to lure her away from Raleigh and to Chicago.
With David’s help, Amy found herself enjoying comedy immensely and before she knew it, she had joined comedy’s Second City Troupe and became a mainstay on their stage.
While she performed there regularly, Amy did stints alongside Tim Meadows, Steve Carell, Stephen Colbert, and Paul Dinello, among others. She and her brother eventually developed their own regular piece of sketch comedy called “Talent Family,” which was quite popular among audiences.
Sedaris in Strangers With Candy
By the time the ‘90s rolled around, Amy found herself walking away from Chicago and heading toward New York, where she created her first TV show called Exit 57 with colleagues Colbert, Dinello and Mitch Rouse.
The show lasted for two seasons on Comedy Central and by 1997, Amy took a step onto the big screen, when she starred as a scholar on the film Commandments.
In 1998, Amy once again teamed up with the boys and created Strangers With Candy, another Comedy Central show that ended up with a cult following and garnered Amy tons of attention in her starring role as Geraldine “Jerri” Blank, an ex-con and ex-junkie.
Amy Sedaris writes Wigfield
Throughout her rising fame, though, Amy continued to work as a waitress between writing and starring on the show, and continuing to do a semi-annual Talent Family show alongside her brother.
Amy continued to get bit parts in movies like Six Days Seven Nights (1998), Jump Tomorrow (2001), Maid in Manhattan (2002), The School of Rock, Elf (both in 2003), Neurotica, and My Baby’s Daddy (both in 2004),
In between her movie roles in 2003, Amy also had some time to put together a book called Wigfield: The Can-Do Town That Just May Not with Dinello and Colbert. The trio turned the book into a play that same year, to much critical acclaim.
Sedaris in Dedication
By 2004, Entertainment Weekly placed Amy and her brother at No. 8 on the list of the 25 Funniest People in America.
Amy kept busy throughout 2005 starring in Bewitched, Stay, Chicken Little (as Foxy Loxy), and I Want Someone to Eat Cheese With.
In 2006, Amy brought her Jerri Blank character to the big screen in the Strangers With Candy: The Movie, although the movie may only be seen in a limited amount of theaters. But she can be seen in three other movies: Dedication, Snow Angels and Full Grown Men.
And in August 2006, Amy’s book, I Like You: Hospitality Under the Influence, was available on bookstore shelves, and received stellar reviews from Publishers Weekly.
In October 2006, Amy guest-starred on NBC’s My Name Is Earl, and was featured in Dolly Parton’s 2007 video for “Better Get to Livin’.”

Beautiful hair is a woman's most noticeable feminine feature. The right prom hairstyles are crucial to looking your best on prom night. Your prom hair needs to accentuate your dress, your makeup, and your face. So here are some of the fun hairstyles for prom night.
Electro-punk: Use a rhinestone tiara to secure the front, then section the back and put small ponytails all over. Wrap your hair around the base and leave it tousled and wild! Zapp! You’re it!
Twisted Tease: It’s hard to go wrong with braids! There are millions of types to experiment with: basic braids, single variation, double variation, crown, multiple strands, and many more! The easiest thing to do is pick up some “how-to” books or videos on braids, or try looking up hair braids on the internet.

4 Biceps Exercises For Women
By Serena Daniels
Well-toned arms gives women the confidence to wear sleeveless tops and show them off; and by performing the right biceps exercises regularly, you will continue wearing slinky tops well into winter.
The biceps are the major muscles that allow for forearm and elbow flexibility. The biceps are broken down into two parts: biceps brachii and brachialis. The former is the muscle located in the upper arm (when you flex, this is the muscle you see). The latter muscle is much smaller and helps with elbow flexion.
If you want to develop your biceps and that bump that makes them look sleek and sexy, here are the biceps exercises you should be performing.
Keep in mind that in order to see a significant change in your muscles, you should perform the following exercises at least once a week. Once you get the hang of them (about 6 weeks in), you should switch up the exercises, tempo, or increase weight in order to keep making gains.
Biceps exercises #1
Concentration curls
Sit on a bench and pick up a dumbbell. Open your legs and place the back of your upper left arm against your inner left thigh, with your elbow up against your inner knee. Lean into your leg, keep your back straight and raise the dumbbell slowly until your palm is facing your shoulder.
Slowly lower the dumbbell until your arm is fully extended, but do not stiffen your elbow. Repeat and complete the set before switching arms.
Sets: 3
Repetitions: 8 to 10
Biceps exercises #2
Preacher curls
Perform this exercise with one hand at a time. Hold the dumbbell, palm facing up. Sit on a preacher bench and place your arm over it so that your armpit rests near the top of pad (adjust the seat if you need to).
At no point should you stiffen your elbow. Starting with your arm straight, lift the dumbbell until your forearm is vertical to the floor, making sure to keep your upper arm and elbow firmly against the pad the entire time. Slowly lower the dumbbell to the starting position and repeat. Complete the set with one arm before moving onto the other.
Sets: 3
Repetitions: 8 to 10
Biceps exercises #3
Dumbbell curls
Keeping your elbows tucked firmly by your sides, curl the dumbbells upwards, toward your chest until your forearms are straight up and the palms of your hands are facing your shoulders. Slowly lower yourself to the starting position and repeat.
Sets: 3
Repetitions: 6 to 8
Biceps exercises #4
Cable curls
At the cable station in the gym, place a straight bar on the low pulley, adjust the weight to what you’re comfortable (but not too comfortable) doing, and bring the pulley up to your thighs, holding it with your palms facing out. This is your starting position.
Keeping your back straight and your knees bent slightly, elbows against your sides at all times, bring the straight bar up to your chest without touching and slowly lower it back to the starting position. Repeat.
Sets: 3
Repetitions: 10 to 12
Perfect biceps exercises
Any time you work your biceps, it’s important to ensure proper stance, otherwise you’ll be calling too many synergist muscles into play and won’t be blasting your biceps into shape. As a result, it will take longer to see any changes.
But done correctly, you should begin to see some toning within 3 to 6 weeks of training. Add to that some rigorous cardio 3 days a week, as well as a healthy diet filled with protein, complex carbs and essential fats, and you’ll be showing off your awesome arms in no time.

Priscilla Presley Disses Kelly Ripa
I love Kelly Ripa and look forward to seeing her on Regis & Kelly in the morning. On April 17, 2008, Priscilla Presley was a guest on the show because she had been kicked off Dancing With the Stars that week.
During the interview, Kelly interrupts Regis to ask Priscilla a question (as they always do with each other) and Priscilla said, "Sorry Regis I didn't hear you because Kelly butted in."
Needless to say, Kelly made a weirded out face and, the classy lady that she is, just sat there for the rest of the interview with a smile on her face and said nothing more.
Priscilla and her botched plastic surgery, zombie face are no longer welcome here.

Kim Kardashian's lingerie pictures in Ralph magazine are pretty nice to look at. We're guessing Michelle Rodriguez would like them. (Egotastic)
