Let me begin by clearing up a few misperceptions about my life in Los Angeles. People always want to know "what's new and exciting." Well the truth is...nothing, really. That's not to say that weekly celebrity sightings aren't awesome - they're what I live for. But really, all I do is work, sleep, and take the dogs out. You see, LA is expensive (you didn't know?), so to pay my bills, I need to work 6 days a week. That leaves little time for fun excursions. My coworker was shocked today to hear that I have yet to visit Santa Barbara. I felt like saying, "You see me here EVERY DAY. When did you think I would go - on my 10 minute break?"
But at the same time, just being here is amazing. I've really fallen in love with it out here...I find that I think about Buffalo less and less. I miss everyone, but in a different way now. I'm establishing friendships out here that, while lovely, could never compare with my friends back home. But it's nice to be able to invite someone over for a movie marathon and not have their answer be, "Yeah, let me just hop on a plane."
So while my life may not be all glamour and opportunity at the moment, I will still try my hardest to keep you updated here about the daily goings-on. The next time an exciting celeb comes in, I'll make sure to blog about it instead of just a short blurb on Facebook. That way you all can really live vicariously through me, the glorified ice cream scooper!
I'm also going to touch on interesting celeb stories throughout the week. So male friends, this may be when you'd like to hit the little red "x" in the corner of your browser window.
1.) Charlie Sheen's Tour: I haven't blogged about Charlie because SO many people are, I really have nothing more to say. But I do find it almost sad that the first "show" on his "tour" bombed so badly. Not sad for him, so much, but just at the situation. I'm sad for the thousands of people who paid money to see that train wreck. I'm sad for the people who are working behind the scenes who think they'll be on the road for the next month or so, and will now probably be forced to look for another gig. And I'm sad for Charlie's kids - but I'm always sad for them.
Above all else, I think it's amazing that people booed the entire show and left early. "I already got your money, dude!" = One Classy Bitch.
2.) Britney Spears' 2nd (4th?) Comeback: So Britney released her SEVENTH album this week, and she was all over my tv promoting it. Seriously, you guys...what is wrong with her? Isn't she supposed to be better by now? I mean, I get that she had a breakdown a while back. But hasn't she been on meds and in therapy and all that? Why is she STILL so out of it? And why doesn't she dance anymore? She just kind of kicks her legs and gyrates her hips. Oh, and flips her hair. Lots of hair flipping. Also, why doesn't she EVER fix her weave when she goes out in public?
(Or wear a bra, apparently.) I think she's really, really crazy in the head, guys.
3.) Lindsay Lohan to Play Sharon Tate?: News broke today that the role of the brutally murdered Sharon Tate has been offered to LA's resident denial queen, Lindsay Lohan. The movie would center on Charles Manson and his "family," including on the infamous murders of a pregnant Tate and her friends.
Beyond the superficial similarities (which include blonde hair and...that's it), I cannot see how this is a good choice. If I were a surviving member of Tate's family, I would be on every news program that would have me to protest this casting choice. Lohan doesn't deserve to play someone so innocent. This may not be an issue come April 22nd, however: Lindsay faces 3 years in prison for grand theft and probation violation.
4.) Reese Witherspoon Gets Married Again: Yawn. But thanks, Reese, for putting my oneandonlylove, Jake Gyllenhaal, back on the market.
Until next time, friends...which will be sooner than 3 months from now, I promise.
