Lauren Conrad Drops By Four Seasons
Lauren Conrad Drops By Four Seasons
Enjoying what was a beautiful June day, Lauren Conrad was spotted out and about the Los Angeles area on Tuesday (June 11).
Wearing a sophisticated red dress with a white buttondown sweater overtop, the Hills starlet headed over to the Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills to kick-start her morning.
After spending about half an hour inside the luxury hotel, LC returned to her Hollywood home, where movers were busily hauling in a whole new set of furniture for her and pal Lauren Bosworth’s pad.
Meanwhile, all of the talk surrounding Lauren and The Hills as of late focuses on the strained relationship between Conrad and her reality co-star Audrina Patridge.
As previously reported by , LC allegedly threw a fit when she found her Audrina in the midst of a photoshoot with OK! magazine in their backyard - as Conrad had already promised exclusive photos of their spot to a rival magazine.
Explaining the situation to OK!, Audrina tells: “She was very, very, very mad. She said it’s her house. But this is my room. I said, ‘We’re not taking pictures of your house - don’t be rude.’ It just adds to the tension. Now she thinks I’m sneaky and shady for doing this photo shoot, yet she and her team knew about it. She won’t let it go.”
Amy Winehouse’s Bizarre Court Behavior
Amy Winehouse’s Bizarre Court Behavior
The only thing that is consistent about Amy Winehouse is her constant inconsistency. And the “Rehab” singer was at it again at her hubby’s court hearing earlier today.
First of all, Winehouse reportedly showed up a few hours late for the hearing, sporting a stained turquoise shirt and a houndstooth pencil skirt along with a pair of black peep-toe heels.
As pretrial arguments were beginning, the “You Know I’m No Good” songstress gave her opinion of the proceedings, saying “It’s like Disneyland,” referring to the court.
During the hearing, she apparently tried to communicate with her incarcerated husband Blake Fielder-Civil via a note from him, but the court usher wouldn’t allow it. Instead, Amy was forced to speak to Blake’s lawyer.
And after half an hour of winking and blowing kisses at Blake, Winehouse apparently decided it was time to leave, and she whispered “F*** You” on her way out the door. Priceless.
On her way back to her Camden, London house, Amy apparently was able to change out of her stained attire, opting for a yellow scoopneck shirt with a pair of skinny jeans and sneakers.
Audrina Patridge Parties with Tal Cooperman
Audrina Patridge Parties with Tal Cooperman
Taking a break from her Hills filming duties, Audrina Patridge spent last night living it up on Hollywood Boulevard with an evening of dinner and partying.
The dark-haired hottie began her night at Eva Longoria’s delicious restaurant Beso, joined by a gal pal and her new boyfriend Tal Cooperman.
And it seems Mr. Cooperman works with Benji and Joel Madden on DCMA clothing, which would explain Audrina’s affinity for the boutique (besides the killer clothes, of course!).
Following their supper, the trio decided it was time to do a little clubbing, so they headed over to Avalon nightclub, conveniently located just a block away from Beso. Miss Patridge got carded prior to entering, with her boy toy trailing behind, trying not to be photographed with her.
After spending only a half an hour at Avalon, they decided to call it a night, and returned to Beso to retrieve their car.
30 Rock: Succession - VIDEO
(S02E13) “That was so easy, like taking candy…from one of those guys who gives out candy at gay nightclubs.”
Sorry this review is a little late this week. 30 Rock is one of those shows that I have to watch once, take notes, then watch again quickly so I can make sure I didn’t miss any good lines. And this episode, like all 30 Rock episodes, had a lot of great lines.
But if there’s anything that I took away from this episode, it’s this: the porn video game that Tracy invented better be revisited in a later episode, or sold in the NBC online store with the mugs and t-shirts.
This episode had a primetime soap opera air about it, as Devon Banks comes back for one final battle with Jack to see who gets to take over for Don Geiss as Head of NBC. It looks like Jack has the gig easily after Don tells him that he’s running a business and not a family, so the fact that Banks is marrying his daughter doesn’t matter, he’s giving the job to Jack. But you know that it’s not going to go down that easy.
Meanwhile, Tracy is embarrassed when his son Tracy Jr. doesn’t invite him to his school’s Bring Your Father To School Day (Tracy found out when he went to the school to give Tracy Jr. his “music stick”). Tracy is so embarrassed and upset that he declares to create a legacy for his children that they’ll be proud of. He brainstorms with Kenneth and realizes it’s not easy (”Damn it, why is leaving a legacy your children will be proud of so hard? It’s been a half an hour!”). But he finally hatches an idea: what if he made a combination video game/porn video? Frank says it can’t be done (”History’s greatest perverts have tried it…Walt Disney, Larry Flynt, the Japanese … it can’t be done”). But after working for a whole six hours, Tracy does it! And Frank is left with sadness and confusion, like Salieri in Amadeus. (By the way, the chart that Frank shows Tracy that illustrates where computer special effects are OK until they reach that creepy human/computer combo like Tom Hanks in The Polar Express? Absolutely true.)
Back to Jack: I knew that when we find out that Don has diabetes and is sick that wouldn’t bode well for Jack. After Jack promotes Liz to take over his position and she saves NBC $2 million by not changing a button on certain microwaves), Don goes into a diabetic coma. And of course, Banks isn’t about to confess to the board that Jack got the job, so he lies and says he doesn’t know what Jack is talking about. He also holds a secret meeting with the board and convinces them that they have to keep the CEO spot in the family … so they make Kathy the CEO! I have to admit that even though I knew that Banks would be the CEO, I didn’t expect the twist of having Geiss’ daughter as the figure head. Maybe we’ll see Geiss wake up in the season finale cliffhanger.
A couple of questions about this though: Liz is kind of a mess. Would Jack really want to make her Head of East Coast Television and Microwave Programming? Wouldn’t Geiss have had Jack sign something secretly about the promotion? And can’t they still use the elevator video to blackmail Banks?
Those questions aside, a great episode that also propels one of the major plots forward in a big way. And now, some great lines:
- “You look like Gene Simmons had sex with a basset hound!” - Liz, to Frank (side note: he really does, doesn’t he?)
- “You get one cry in life. You’ve chosen well.” - Geiss, to Jack, who cries about getting the promotion.
- “I’d have my assistant sit on his naughty stool if he didn’t like it so much.” - Jack, after his assistant didn’t tell him Geiss was in the office.
- “Everyone knows the only thing we should be ashamed of is our bodies.” - Kenneth
- “Eureka! … We should call Eureka, she always has great ideas.” - Tracy
- “Hugging is so ethnic.” - Jack
- “Don Geiss has stacked the board with the most reliable collection of cronies and yes men this side of an Al Franken book signing.” - Jack
- “Why do I smell self-tanning cream and teeth whitener? Banks!” - Jack
- “Devon … once they cast Clay Aiken in Spamalot, I knew it was just a matter of time before you showed up.” - Jack
- “To get through it, I pretended he was a sandwich.” - Liz, about how she got through kissing Banks.
- “My genius has come alive, like toys when you turn your back!.” - Tracy
- “Suck it monkeys! I’m going corporate!” - Liz
