Rumor has it the Miami Vice movie could have more setbacks due to the latest problem with star Colin Farrell, who plays Sonny Crockett. Not only was the movie delayed because of all the hurricanes, but now as the production moves to Uruguay, Farrell has allegedly OVERDOSED and checked into rehab!!!
Allegedly, Farrell had taken a South American cocktail of cocaine, marijuana and some "unknown" substance being touted as backpain medication. But his reps say the stint in rehab stems from "exhaustion and addiction to pain meds from a back injury."
Come on! Pain meds, my ass! Colin Farrell was just method acting! Remember in the mid-80s when Don Johnson played the part of Crockett and he was addicted to blow? Farrell was just doing character research and got a little too wrapped up. Damn actors, always getting so into things and forgetting they're not superhuman!! Good thing he's not playing Scarface!
I love you, Colin Farrell, and I always will; even if you are a junkie.

Get a Grip!
We've talked a lot about the many Hollywood breakups as of late, but let's examine a relationship that stays together, making me say, "Why?" Julia Roberts and Danny Moder have one-year-old twins, they're seemingly happy. Roberts has recently stated she'd like to get pregnant again, however is going to work on Broadway before that. Moder has a fairly lucrative career as a cinematographer.
Now I'm no body language expert (obviously, which is why all my relationships end up in the crapper), but this CAN NOT be the photo of two people hopelessly in love. He looks like he's being punished! He got his fourth tardy in Math and is being led by the arm all the way down the hall to detention. And that look on Julia's face! Not the face of a happy camper; she just looks freakin' mean!!!
What is worse, an unhappy couple mugging it for the paparazzi or a happy couple looking like they're literally going to kill each other? At least Jessica Simpson and Nick Lachey had the common sense to fake their love until the end.

Girly Girl Pick of the Week 12/12
Bouncy hair... something we all shoot for, but sometimes come up short. Okay, I come up short. My hair is the bain of my existance and it frustrates me on a daily basis. Something that's helped me a lot lately are velcro rollers. I've read a lot about them, but I never tried them until one day on a whim. I got some of these Conair Ion Shine rollers. They're inexpensive, and they really make a difference when blow-drying your hair.
Start out blowdrying hair until it's about 80% dry, then take some volumizing spray and in sections, spray it on the underside of your hair right at the root. Roll that section in a velcro roller (it will stay in place, but if it doesn't use a little duckbill clippy). Proceed until all of your hair is rolled in velcro! Then blow dry the rest of the way dry. To give your hair time to cool in the rollers, finish up makeup or get dressed, then carefully unroll each roller. VOILA! Instant volume, straight hair, and no frizz! Finish off with a little gloss at the ends, and I swear you'll look like you just got a blowout at the salon. For next-day hair, you can spritz your roots with a little hairspray or water to re-activate the product, roll back up in the velcro rollers, set with a blow dryer and your hair still looks great.
If you don't have velcro rollers, get a couple of packs of the big-size and go to town! All you need are 6 or 8 to give your roots volume and smooth down frizzies that happen in this crazy dry and cold weather. I kid you not, this is one of the cheapest fixes for blah-feeling hair in between cuts.

Wha' The Fuh?
So, here's a little rant before I go to bed, and then I'm over it. Bear with me.
I think I'm dating this guy who seems great, yeah, he's a little younger than me, but I didn't figure there was a problem with that. Things are fantastic for a few weeks, we're getting along, things are fun, we're having fun together. Then, bam! Nothing, nada, zip, zilch. He's too busy, he's not interested, he tries giving the "let's just be friends" speech; which I do not accept. I don't need any more guy friends, especially since I enjoy kissing him and I do not usually go around kissing my friends.
We go a week, talking every night (this would be after his attempt at "let's be friends,") and then tonight he's suddenly too busy hosting a party I'm clearly not invited to, to see me this weekend. Whateva' I'm done with it, and I didn't get upset with him. When I said, "bye" to the phone call, the "bye" meant more. You know, kids, you're damned if you're cool and you're damned if you're not cool. If you give men the space they so cherish (and I do too! I don't really want to see someone every damn night of the week) then you're not clingy enough for the drama they desire. If you're too demanding, then you're a "crazy bitch." I prefer to be cool, and guys can't seem to handle that. They wonder what you're hiding, they wonder if you're too independent for them.
Guess what? I am. Independence is not a bad thing, in fact, I've worked my whole life to have a fabulous career and total independence. I'm not ugly, I'm not fat, I've got a great job and a fantastic car I love. Men can't handle that. In order to finally have supreme power (which is completely stupid) they have to throw down the "let's just be friends." I'm so tired of thinking I'm the problem, feeling like I'm not good enough for all of these guys with whom I end up spending a short amount of time and then never see again. I used to think the key component in all the failed attempts and bad dates is me or my personality, and my only fault is that I choose these men who aren't fierce enough to hang.
And so the tables are turned. The gender roles are switched where the boys end up as emotionally disturbed as they perceive the girls are. Well, this girl is not, and fierce is the key word because I am fierce. And I deserve nothing less in return.
Thanks for the vent. Feel free to email me for a pict of him, print it out, and we'll all make voodoo dolls.

One breakup I'm happy about...
So last year I went to Vegas with some friends, and we ended up partying at Body English in the Hard Rock Hotel. Color me so surprised when I found out this was the club to party in, and there were stars everywhere. Since I'm a geek, I ended up hanging out and watching the DJ, who I later found out was DJ AM, who later became engaged to Nicole Richie.
Sigh, my spikey-haired DJ in love with the newly-skinny Nicole Richie. Color me so heart-broken.
But now, "Us Weekly has learned exclusively that Nicole Richie, 24, and fiance Adam ''D.J. AM'' Goldstein, 32, have called it quits. ''They have decided to break off the engagement,'' Richie's rep Cindy Guagenti confirms to Us. ''The decision is mutual.''
Sources tell Us Weekly that the pair, who had dated since 2003 and were to wed next year, decided to break up a few days ago. Of her planned nuptials, Richie told Us earlier this year, ''I'm so happy. We're taking it slowly.''
Come on Adam Goldstein! You're hot, I'm hot and we both have a mutual appreciation for the club mix of Seven Nation Army. I will help you get over Little Miss Richie. And a little update, confirmed, from Miss Richie's publicist:
Richie's publicist, Cindy Guagenti, confirmed to The Associated Press on Wednesday that the couple have split. She said the breakup had been in the works for several days, but would not give any further details. I'm so in there!

Bonus Girly Girl Pick of the Week 12/07
Okay, so here's something I've fallen in love with and this first one was free! Okay, it was free with a purchase at Bath and Body Works. I had to spend at least $10 and I got this $7.50 lip gloss for free. I don't quite know why I got a coupon for this in the mail, but if you ever get these, use them! They rank up there with the coupons for free panties at Victoria's Secret.
I'm talking about C.O. Bigelow's Mentha Lip shine, and it is fantastic. It's minty and cooling and makes your lips feel tingly and ever so bee stung. The gloss is nice, and it's pretty moisturizing. However, the gloss doesn't stay on for very long (i.e. Rosebud Salve lasts forever, this... notsomuch) so you have to reapply. I've got the clear, and now it comes in colors. The colors are a little strange though, and I'm just going to stick with the clear. The mint is great though, and worth the number of reapplications.
While you're at the BBW, give the Tutti Dolce Lotion in Sugar Wafer a sniff... I swear if you use it, you'll want to eat your own arm!

Attack of the Worm
This is Dennis Rodman. I find it so very, very frightening-- he's wearing more makeup than I do!
I'm sort of having a blog post-fest tonight, it's all snowy and I don't feel like going anywhere.

Evil Doppleganger?
This was weird, I did a double-take when I saw this on Perez's site. I thought this was Jennifer Aniston, turns out it's her evil dopplegnager Mary-Kate Olsen!!! She was at the Lakers game with her new old boyfriend Jeff Katzenburg. She ditched the Greek guy for this guy again, and now the Greek guy is dating Paris Hilton.
What-ever!

Do Not Forget...
I had forgotten about this, but it's too good not to revisit... Fergie and the Black Eyed Pees!!
By BECI WOOD
Sun Online
QUICK-THINKING Black Eyed Peas star Fergie once squirted champagne all over herself to disguise the fact she'd wet herself during a concert.
The gorgeous singer told Interview magazine: "I had a few drinks before the show, but I didn't think to go to the restroom before we went onstage.
"We were jumping around - it was all very rock 'n' roll - and my bladder just started... you know.
"Somebody brought out these champagne bottles because it was the New Year, and I basically opened one up and squirted it all over myself, so nobody would notice.
"It was a very memorable Pea experience."

My New Calling in Life
I want to start a roller derby league in Utah. I've thought a lot about this for a long time, and I've realized it's my calling.
Look at the activities they do!
You can also check out the LA Derby Dolls and see the leagues I'd join if I went to Los Angeles. My roller derby name would be Little Orphan Slammy.

Stop the Madness!!!-- Updated
I am so sick of stars filing for divorce. I need to have some hope in the world that there are relationships that actually work out. As I wander about in my haze of bad dates, failed couplings and attraction toward men who don't want me, I need to see there are people in Hollywood I can look up to! Notsomuch. No more Nick and Jessica, no more Brad and Jen, no more Kevin and Britney...
...okay, I could care less about that last one.
I'm not into Ben and Jen. I'm not into Brad and Angelina. I'm definitely not into Tom and Katie.
The latest in the Hollywood divorce club is Christina Applegate and Johnathon Schaech. I thought they were actually cute, and in every interview I've read with Christina Applegate, she seemed to really be into him. (For those of you saying, "ummm, Johnathon who?" He's the moody singer in That Thing You Do! and also was in a great TNT movie about Houdini's life.) The two filed for divorce in a Los Angeles court Monday afternoon. According to a statement released by their publicist: "After four years of marriage, actors Johnathon Schaech and Christina Applegate have filed for divorce. The decision is mutual. We have no further comment at this time."
Four years? Four years? What the hell? What is the shelf life of a Hollywood marriage? Hell, what is the shelf life of a non-Hollywood marriage?!? Anyway, the couple cited irreconcilable differences.
Updated: Just found this out from Entertainmentwise
Jennifer Aniston has burned the dress she wore when she married her now ex-husband Brad Pitt.
The actress was joined by friends to witness the ritual outside her Malibu beach home.
According to Grazia magazine the actress, who is believed to now be dating actor Vince Vaughn, was sipping champagne and laughing with friends as her wedding dress went up in smoke.
That's what we all need! An ex-boyfriend memorbilia bonfire!!

Girly Girl Pick of the Week 12/05
Okay, so the request is moisturizer. I can do that!!! First off, I've got to say that since the weather has changed, I've been a big zit. If you're feeling like me, don't stop moisturizing! The dry cold is way worse than a bad skin week, and has more long-term effects.
I use Proactiv as a cleansing system, and the moisturizer in it is fantastic. There are mall kiosks where you can get the product separate from the whole trio, but it works well on its own. It's not overdrying, but it does have a small amount of salycylic acid in it which helps combat blotchy skin and zits.
In addition to that, I use Clinique's Repairwear at night, along with Advanced Stop Signs Eye. During the day, I use Clinique's Repairwear Day (which is NOT greasy under makeup) along with All About Eyes (that I've talked about before).
Another good moisturizer, which I switch off with and use sparingly is The Body Shop's Vitamin C Skin Boost. They also have a whole line of Vitamin C products to be used together, although I haven't tried them all. I do love the consistencies of the vitamin c moisturizers and lotions and they're worth trying.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!
To Garfleck who allegedly gave birth to a baby girl last night. According to US Weekly, Sources confirm to Us that Garner, whose due date was December 8, had her labor induced at an L.A. hospital.

Last night, when asked by Us when Garner would be giving birth, Garner's Alias co-star Joel Grey said ''Tonight.''
When contacted by Us, a rep for Garner wouldn't confirm nor deny news of the birth. A rep for Affleck could not be reached.

TWO WOW STORIES!!!
God bless Perez for this information!!!
First off! Vince "Puffy-Eyed Alcoholic" Vaughn was nearly arrested over the Thanksgiving weekend as he was allegedly under the influence (big shock) and committed a "minor traffic infraction." He and Jennifer Aniston were hanging out in Arizona, because that's just as neat as Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's world-wide peacekeeping vacation, and ended up getting pulled over near the resort where they were staying.
But, the cops let them off the hook.
Let me remind you of what Jennifer Aniston has left Brad Pitt for:
In other WOW STORIES...
Apparently Britney Spears and Kevin her wife, left their son at home for a night to spend some time dancing and parying in Los Angeles at DJ AM's club LAX. Things were fine, but when they got home, they spent the rest of the night fighting and Britney KICKED KEVIN OUT! Sources say Mr. Spears was seen leaving the house in the wee hours...
...crying out on the curb...
...okay I added that part in.

Let's Stop and Reflect
In case you missed the original statement, according to People Online the couple says, "After three years of marriage, and careful thought and consideration, we have decided to part ways," the statement says. "This is the mutual decision of two people with an enormous amount of respect and admiration for each other. We hope that you respect our privacy during this difficult time."
Well, since it's over... I took a few minutes out today to watch Newlyweds Season 2. I couldn't help but feel a few pangs of sadness as Jessica and her wife Nick talked about celebrating their one-year anniversary in Atlantic City. Sure, Jessica is an idiot when she's asking Nick what Oktoberfest is, sure she's irritating when she's trying to figure out why some sausage is white, but I can't help but think these two were made for each other.
This leaves us with very few couples to love to hate. You can't hate Brangelina since they're both really hot and fighting for world causes. You can't hate Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillipe because they're both so likeable. I'm distraught over the whole thing I need a drink.
And Nick says, "Buh bye, Jessica!"

He can bite my neck anytime
Ever since the Lost Boys, I've had a love for Kiefer Sutherland. He's hot in vampire teeth, he's hot in his Young Guns cowboy hat. Let's all take a moment for him in Young Guns 2 where he comes out shooting and then gets killed. Ah yes, Kiefer, my love for you started many years ago.
Now let's sing a little of the haunting Lost Boys anthem, "Thou Shall Not Fall..." Okay, I'm okay now.
Allegedly, Kiefer was spotted out in Hollywood with a boy"friend." Yep, I said it, BOY friend. "Friend" who is a BOY. How hot is this, though-- Kiefer sported black painted nails and black plastic-framed glasses. Yummy? I'd say so! And who cares if he doesn't like girls anymore, right? Julia Roberts certainly dodged that bullet.

Girly Girl Pick of the Week 11/28
Okay, so we go to paint a wall, we prime it... welcome to your face. Before you go to the trouble of the whole eyeshadow, mascara, lipstick thing you've got to prime what's going on under it. Who cares if you're using MAC's newest glitter eyeliner if you've got an uneven skintone thing going on, right?
I am of firm belief that with foundation, you get what you pay for. If you're going for the $2.99 Wet and Wild base because it's cheaper, just don't do it. Remember in the movie "Death Becomes Her" at the end when Glenn Close and Goldie Hawn's faces are cracking and it's like they've got to Bondo it all back together? So is the super cheapola foundation.
That said, you can still find good foundation in the drugstore, just stay away from the crap.
Loreal makes a great line of drugstore foundations, about $11 to $13 that I've found work very well. Also remember Loreal is a subsidiary of Lancome, so I would much rather pay this much than heading to the Lancome counter and paying three times as much for pretty much the same thing. Also, I only like liquid foundations, as the liquid to powder kind of pancake kinds make me break out. If you use these, be sure to either replace the sponge weekly or wash it really well all of the time because the oil from your face gets trapped in them and makes you break out.
Ideal Balance works well if you've got combination skin. The coverage is pretty good, a little on the sheer side, but in all a fairly good product. From their Web site, Idéal Balance contains a special skin-reading technology that helps deliver the perfect balance. Dual Action Complex regulates oil-prone areas and controls shine while adding hydration and helping to protect the dry, sensitive areas. The SPF 10 is a bonus as well, but you're all already putting sunscreen on your faces anyway, right? Right? Even in the winter?
Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse is a fairly good foundation if you're in a hurry and want pretty minimal coverage. This is like a good Saturday morning going to the grocery store kind of thing. It goes on a little weird, and you have to use your fingers instead of a makeup wedge which sort of freaks me out a little, but it's quick and that's nice. Comes a good colors, and works for most kinds of skin, but I know it didn't make me break out and I will break out easily if the wind shifts.
Neutrogena Skin Clearing Tint is also a nice, sheer foundation but I actually like to use it under my foundation if I feel like I'm having a bad skin day. It has just a little bit of salycylic acid in it (zit cream) that sort of works all day to help with any blemishes. It smells weird though, be aware of it, kind of like medicine.
Revlon Skinlights Diffusing Tint is nice because it gives you that "dewy" look, but I only like it at night because it's a little too shimmery for daytime and just makes you feel sort of sweaty-looking. Very pretty colors, and the more-pink tones are neat for sort of an ethereal look. I would NOT get this for every day, rather if you're going for some effect or maybe just want a lighter, more casual thing going on. This sort of made me break out, so if you have really sensitive skin, I would think twice about it.
So in the winter, I get these weird dry places on my face and I switch to Clinique's Dewy Smooth Age-Defying Makeup which I love and adore. Works on combination skin and gives really great coverage. ALOT of coverage, so if you're into the more sheer look, stick with a tinted moisturizer, or something I've described above. From their Web site, Ultra-moisturizing, Clinique's fresh new take on foundation glides on even the driest skin, for a comfortable, supple feeling that lasts. Plumping skin too, so yesterday's lines seem to disappear. Evens out skin tone. Protects with SPF 15. BE SURE to use a new makeup sponge every week if you're going to use this because it's really thick and makes it really gunky if you don't.
So there you have it! No excuses for flaky, uneven zit faces! Not even as the weather changes!
