KATHI'S CELEBRITY OBSESSION

i ain't gonna put a time limit on this coz i'm not an anally retentive blog nazi like some people i could mention. :P

anyway, i pick KRISTEN BELL, or KBELL, depending on how much i feel like typing, because she is a) gorgeous, b) gorgeous, c) talented, d) gorgeous, e) extremely funny, f) gorgeous and g) did i mention how extremely gorgeous she is?

picture proof!













i think that proves it tbh. i am not going to bore you with details you don't care about, just look at the pretty pictures and try not to fall in love with her. try really hard. try really REALLY hard, because, let's face it, it is actually impossible.

EDIT: hahaha look! kbell can SING! :) yes i just love her even more now. she is so special. :D and she has a doll with half a face called homeboy!! see what i mean? it is just too hard not to love her. <33

Dan and Georgina hooking up?

It's apparently official Dan & G hooking up, was revealed by E! Online's Q&A.

Q: Please tell me that the Dan-Georgina hookup in the Gossip Girl promos is misdirection!

A: No can do. Michelle Trachtenberg's Georgina Sparks and Penn Badgley's Dan Humphrey really do hook up in season three of Gossip Girl.


How exciting. I was suspecting this from the WTF (Watch This Fall) season 3 promos which you can watch here.


I don't doubt that some fans wont be too happy about this paring but something does it for. They just seem to fit. It's a shame MT's not staying for longer :(.

Celebrity Obsession: Mandy Musgrave

Well it was obviously a MM Celebrity Obsession was going to come, but I think it's just another excuse to put up more pictures of Mandy Musgrave (I love her!) And I've just found out she's enganged! To non other than co-star Matt Cohen aka Aiden! This is too perfect. They should get together in the show also (well if Spencer didn't exist obviously).

Apparently she enjoys playing volleyball, water polo and kickball, she runs frequently, sings karaoke, writes her own poetry and paints collages. she originally went for the role of Spencer but felt completely outmatched by Gabby Chritian and swaped her role to Ashley (a great choice, both are perfect). She also finds it difficult to cry on cue (I know I'd find it impossible) and she had to do it alot when she was on Days of our Lives (Joey's show), and also after about 200 kisses with gabby she still doesn't know how she kisses "should I turn my head this way?"

Mandy as Ashley has also made a huge impact on television, her famous quote "i'm not into lables" became a favorite quote among viewers. She has become a big icon for teenagers and young adults and is seen as a spokesperson for gay youth who look to her for guidance. She has said that this is difficult task but she is up to the challenge.

"I'm trying. I'm trying to be the best lesbian I can."


I will love her forever!!

Shipping: Spashley

I've already almost finished season 2 of South of Nowhere and after seeing these two in a relationship (finally) I just can't get enough. They are one (if the not the most) hottest/cutest couple in the history of the universe. Despite my shipping of this fab pairing I can't stop myself falling for the beautiful Mandy Musgrave as Ashley, I mean she is just gorgeous.

Now all the show needs is the sudden and surprising death of Spence's mum Paula, prehaps falling off a cliff, impailed on a kebad stick or maybe being eaten alive by carnivorous earthworms. Damn her and her anti-Spashley ways! She even brought Principal Snyder (from Buffy) round to "straighten" her out while telling her that who she is at the moment is "not acceptable" what a bitch! Thank God her father was so understanding, everyone deserves a father like that but prehaps with slightly less ego on the cooking front. Mr Moloney much?

It's a shame they stopped at three seasons and even more of a shame that it only showed in the U.S (why do they get everything good?), even Itunes doesn't have it which is upsetting because I could easily watch the show all day everyday. And wait do I hear a Dan & Goergina hook up happening over in GG Insider, now that will be one to look out for.

Ashley: What? Spencer... what's wrong? You're so beautiful.

Spencer: Stop... I'm okay. It's just a big deal. And I want it to be for you, too.

Ashley: It is.

Spencer: When I woke up this morning and you weren't here next to me, for a second, I thought it was a dream.

Ashley: I know... I didn't even want to get out of bed. I just wanted to shut out the world a little bit longer.

Ashley: I'm sorry.

Spencer: You don't have to be. You're just going through the worst time right now.

Ashley: No, I'm sorry for not letting you in. Letting you help, I'm so bad at this, but I need you so bad right now.





Ashley: I was protecting you, and when it comes down to having the choice of being right or protecting you, I'll be wrong every single time, because it's just who I am.

Ashley: Thank you. Thank you for not letting me disappear, be alone.

Spencer: You're not alone. I'm not going anywhere.



Ashley: Am I your first or am I your forever? Are you staying or are you leaving? Am I just some high school fling or do we actually have a future together?

Spencer: I can take care of myself. With some left over to take care of you.

Spencer: I can't imagine what it would be like if we never became friends. It'd be totally different. Thank god we met.
Ashley: I know, we were meant to be.

Ashley: I swear every night I was away was perfect because you were in my dreams. But every morning I woke up it sucked because you wouldn't be there. I know it sounds cliche but it's true.

Spencer & Ashley forever <3

Syren is finally here!

Syren the next book in the Septimus Heap series by Angie sage is finally here and sporting a fab new cover (as per usual). My obsessing over these books manage to come to a close about 4 months after Queste was released and read and now I can start again on the next chapter of the story, I can't wait^^. Of course I will have to finish the book I am currently reading , only 600 pages to go, first but I think I can surreptitiously read a couple of chapters. It has also been revealed that the first book Magyk will be made into a film, but it will be animated. I'm not sure if the excitement for a film or the disappointment that it will be animated is stronger, but on the other hand Star Wars: The Clone wars was in fact animated and I enjoyed that a lot... well we will have to wait and see wont we. The blurb of the book reads
Septimus is stranded on a remote island with his badly injured dragon, Spit Fyre, along with Jenna and Beetle. The island is captivatingly beautiful, one of seven set in a sparkling sea, but there is also something strange about it... not least the Magykal girl named Syrah, the cat-shaped lighthouse, and an eerie presence that sings to Septimus... Trouble is also brewing for Lucy and Wolf Boy, who have been entangled with some nefarious sailors, and for Milo Banda, Jenna's father, who is harbouring a mysterious treasure chest in his ship's hold.
I can't wait to get started. I can feel a SH re-read coming on.

CAT'S monthly song obsession !

because this blog deserves decent music, tbqh.

WOOOOOO aloha! It's Cat, again, doing her very seldom posts in protest to Tom's irritating monthly song obsessions which tbh, are pretty bad. So, here is my response (it'll most likely get deleted anyway js.)



So yeah, the song is Don't Cry Out by Shiny Toy Guns. It's like, old now, but shush, it's still a fab song, and plus, Kathi agrees with me (;

Which makes it totally MasterCard, yo.

I'm too cool to post the lyrics hurr, you can all get your lazy bums onto teh Tube of Wisdom and type it into the revelutionary thing we call a search bar. <3

- cat, xoxo

Monthly Song Obsession: Paparazzi

I certainly didn't know if this song was going to grow on me or not and of course like all the other Lady GaGa songs I now can't stop listening, especially after seeing the... unusual (to say the least) music video. At this moment in time this song is the only one in the top 10 that is any good at all, with the exception of Cascada and prehaps La Roux. Her outfits seem to become even stranger in this video, infact she can almost compete with Mrs Harris (almost). One of the ones that jumped out at me was the one she wore close to the end of the song. She wears a yellow jumpsuit with circular shoulder pads and sunglasses that come with almost Mickey Mouse ears on the top of them.

Hmmm unusual.

I wonder if she wears these things in public.

Here are the lyrics to this balad about stalking, no wonder Hatty likes it:

We are the crowd,
We're c-coming out
Got my flash on it's true
Need that picture of you
It's so magical
We'd be so fantastical

Leather and jeans a watch on my wrist,
Not sure what it means,
But this photo of us
It don't have a price
Ready for those flashing lights,
Cause you know that baby i

Im your biggest fan
I'll follow you until you love me
Papa-paparazzi,
Baby there's no other superstar
You know that i'll be your
Papa-paparazzi

Promise i'll be kind,
But i won't stop until that boy is mine
Baby you'll be famous
Chase you down until you love me
Papa-paparazzi

I'll be your girl
Backstage at your show,
Velvet ropes and guitars,
Yeah cause you'll know
I'm staring between the sets
Eyeliner and cigarettes

Shadow is burnt
Yellow dance and return
My lashes are dry
But with teardrops I cry
It don't have a price
Loving you is cherry pie
'Cause you know that baby I

Im your biggest fan
I'll follow you until you love me
Papa-paparazzi,
Baby there's no other superstar
You know that i'll be your
Papa-paparazzi

Promise i'll be kind,
But i won't stop until that boy is mine
Baby you'll be famous
Chase you down until you love me
Papa-paparazzi

Real good
(We dance in the studio)
Snap, snapped
(That s**t on the radio)

Don't stop boy, rewind
We'll blast it but we'll still have fun!

Im your biggest fan
I'll follow you until you love me
Papa-paparazzi,
Baby there's no other superstar
You know that i'll be your
Papa-paparazzi

Promise i'll be kind,
But i won't stop until that boy is mine
Baby you'll be famous
Chase you down until you love me
Papa-paparazzi



And a video on Youtube ( but again not the actual video again)

South of Nowhere

OMG, I have finally found a God in the form of a T.V programme, it's just a shame the episodes are only like 22 minutes long :(. I didn't know if I'd like it at first and it took me along time to find online which was a pain. My searching paid off in the end and I found a show equal of Gossip Girl, Charmed, Buffy and Heroes season 1!

It revolves around the Carlin family. They have just moved from small town Ohio to Los Angeles and are trying to adjust to city life in California. The father, Arthur Carlin (is it just me or does he have a permanent sore throat) is a social worker and his wife, Paula is a doctor (but I prefer tho think of her occupation as loathsome prejudice bitch!).

They have three children: Glen is a real Jack the Lad who plays basketball and was a star at his old school and now has to adjust to competing with his new basketball team's current star Aiden. Spencer is a cheerleader who is struggling with her sexual orientation. She seems to have a crush on her new friend Ashley who is rumoured to be a lesbian and also is the most coolest beautiful person in the history of the universe I would marry her if she wasn't in love with Spence obviously. Clay is the Carlin's African-American adopted son. He is very intelligent and doesn't act "black." A friendship (sort of) begins to develop between Clay and Sean, a tough but also intelligent teen who is pretty much the opposite of Clay.

The show deals with many different problems that teenagers will come across, prejudice, drugs, sex etc. And the characters (well most of them) are so lovable especially Spence and Ashley. The plot is great, the script is wonderful and the cast is amazing and I just love it!

Georgina & Blair?

Could the rumours be true? Although more guesses than rumours it was said on GG insider that G will have a surprising new love interest and then a few suspicious photos have been released only a few days later.



What could this mean for the future of G and Chair? I'm guessing there just wild speculations but I guess anything's possible in the scandalous world of the upper East Side. Season 3 will hold all the answers, when we finally get to see it that is :( I'm liking the look of Joana Garcia as well, I think she'll be a good edition.

There's also another person whose been cast:

Another celebrity called Tyra Banks who I never heard of. She doesn't seem a popular choice with the fans but once again we'll have to see. I think she's the host of a talk show but i am not sure.

Happy Birthday: Lisa Kudrow

Today is the 30th of July and Friends star Lisa Kudrow's 46th birthday, happy birthday!!
Lisa plays the character Phoebe Buffay on the hit American sitcom Friends. Phoebe comes from a rough background where after her mum commits suicide and she has to live on the streets, she is straightforward and unusually frank and has a great many shocking stories from her past which makes her so perfectly quotable.

For some reason I always loved Phoebe more than Monica or Rachel. She always made me laugh more with her ridiculous outbursts and her plan laugh (of which she is the master), and her wonderful music such as Smelly Cat, and the cow in the meadow goes moo...
The cow in the meadow goes moo,
The cow in the meadow goes moo,
And then the farmer hits him over the head and grinds him up and that's how we get hamburgers!
A real classic! Enjoy your 46th birthday Lisa!

Celebrity Obsession: Lacey Chabert

It may just be my personal taste but I think Lacey Chabert (pronounced SHA/BEAR) is one of the most gorgeous, beautiful women alive, and after seeing Mean Girls again in the last Drama lesson of the year I feel my obsession with her has returned. Whether it's her deep brown eyes, her curly brunette hair or overly pretty smile I pretty much love everything about Lacey. Apart from having stared in slasher film Black Christmas were she gets stabbed by a pair of gardening shears (a film I wont be watching anytime soon). She plays her part of Gretchen Wieners so well in MG that you can't help but adore her (or I can't anyway).

I always thought Lacey was prettier than Rachel McAdams in the film and just in general. But after researching Rachel a bit more she is definitely on a par with miss Chabert! I expect they'll be a CO post about Rachel to in the near future. Apparently Lacey gets credited as Esmeralda Belle Jane of which she has no clue why, maybe someone misread it I mean they do look so similar.

She would be perfect for Gossip Girl along with her Mean Girls team, except Lindsay Lohan who was too nice. Amanda Seyfried could play a sligtly brighter character as well and I think Rachel should keep her black hair it suits her better I think. You never know, one day maybe, I mean they cast Hillary Duff didn't they (not that that's a bad thing, nothing against Hillary)?

The News on Georgina.

Michelle trachtenberg.

You may already know this already but it's now official that Michelle Trachtenberg will not be joining the main cast of Gossip Girl :( (for the time being hopefully). Instead she will be staring as a lead role on the NBC show Mercy about three nurses where she plays a rookie one. It is currently unknown what the reason for leaving the Upper East Side is but I feel it may have something to do with Poppy Lifton, the socialite/fraudster who you would think wouldn't need anymore money really. Georgie ended the second season by phoning up Dan and telling him his money is back and he can go to Yale. Dan tells her that he's already applied to NYU to which she replies...

"Good, I'll see you next year then"

And hangs up, she is last seen requesting Blair as a roommate. A prospect I'm sure B'll be thrilled about! :D Can't Wait to see G next season!

Michelle Trachtenberg as she appears in new NBC show Mercy.

Happy Birthday: Taylor Momsen

Today marks the 16th birthday celebration of teen star, model and aspiring rocker Taylor Momsen who plays Jenny Humphrey on the hit CW T.V show.
Jenny left season 2 as Queen Bee of Constance Billard and the social scene. We think she should have learnt her lesson from season 1 when Blair outed her boyfriend, quickly dethroning her in the process.
Will Jenny be running for bitch of the year again or will she finally brake the cycle of the monarchy once and for all.
The era of "Little J" is over and so thank God is that hair, I'm now hoping for a full recovery. But only time will tell. Good luck in season 3 J, i'm just wondering if the other girls will follow her.
Happy birthday Taylor, enjoy your sweet sixteenth!
