Youtubesday: Facercise

Michael K recently introduced me to Carol Maggio who is the creator of Facercise (she served as his Hot Slut Of The Day! last Wednesday). This is a video from Everything is Terrible of Carol showing her exercise technique.

This is amazing. I can't believe this exists. Even more shocking is that the "rich and famous" are paying thousands of dollars for her to teach them this shit. Not only that, she appeared on "Geraldo" and the "Mike & Matty Show." OMG, I loved that show. And the theme song (does anybody else remember it? Call me if you would like me to sing it to you. Too bad I'm not able to find any videos on YouTube of that show. But rest assured, I will be singing the theme song to myself for the rest of the day.

Austinites: What do you think the chances are that Carol is related to Judy Maggio? I think it is likely they are sisters, or at least cousins. No wonder Judy's face is in such good shape.

Have a great day!

I LOVE YOU! You're Rude :(

This is a note that was left on Rob Pattinson's car while he filmed a scene in NY. It makes me giggle.
If for some reason you aren't able to read the glow-in-the-dark light blue pen it says:
Dear Robert,
I LOVE YOU!
You're Rude :(
Love Always,
???nna &
Nicole
The only thing missing is "Do you love me? Check yes or no". I'm praying that this was written by a pre-teen and not a mother. And can they really call him rude? I saw the video from that day (I know, that's weird, but whatever. At least I'm not on set bothering him) and he just ignored them. He has to work. And the day before he got hit by a cab (but not hurt) trying to walk across the street (there is some debate as to whether or not he was being chased by the fangirls. But let's just assume that he was probably being less than observant because he was probably trying to avoid being strangled by fangirls). Oh, Bert.
Very nice. Anyway, I can't wait to see this movie. At this point, I'm praying that he makes it through the filming unscathed. And I encourage folks who happen to be visiting NYC to avoid visiting the set of Remember Me. If you want to meet Rob, wait for one of the fan events (premieres, Hot Topic tours, Today Show appearances, etc).
In other news, filming finally started on The Runaways today.

Her jeans are made of awesome. This movie looks interesting as well.

Not much else to report. Hope everyone has a great New Moon Monday!

Teresa Giudice is Friday's Fun Fearless Female

If you have no idea who I am talking about, take a second to watch this video from the Real Housewives of New Jersey finale:

The one screaming "Prostitution Whore!"--that's Teresa Guidice. She is hilarious. She just got her "bubbies" done and she and her husband Joe are first-generation Italian-Americans. She has three daughters named Gia, Gabriella, and Milania. She will have her fourth child in September (she doesn't know what she's having yet). Guess her "delicious and juicy" husband Joe liked the bubbies. She has come out with her own line of clothing and accessories called TG Fabulicious (check it out at http://www.teresagiudice.com/). The stuff is kind of tacky and Jersey but at least it is reasonably priced, unlike Lynne with her stupid $300 cuffs.

Teresa was the source of comic relief on the show and never had an attitude--until she flipped the table over. As many times as I have jokingly said "I will flip the table over," I have never actually seen someone do that in "real" life. I think she must have been pushed to her breaking point and just went off on Danielle. And who could blame her? Bitch is crazy.

Oh, and Danielle? How come when you were talking to your daughters you mentioned three things from the book were true-you used to be a stripper, you changed your name and you got arrested; yet when you were talking at the "last supper" you only admitted to the last two? I'm with Teresa-there has to be something else.

This show is by far the best of the Real Housewives franchise. For one thing, they had an all-out screaming match between all of the ladies in the last episode of the season. While many of the other housewives have ongoing fights, they rarely actually talk to each other about it, and even if they do they've never had anything like this.

Also, these ladies are the closest thing to Real Housewives. They actually have kids, and the majority of them stay at home and cook and take care of said kids. Mind you, their houses are mansions and their kids are auditioning for movies with the Rock, but they are actually housewives. I thought it was kind of sweet on the next-to-last episode when Teresa said that she cooks Monday-Thursday and they go out to eat every Friday night at their favorite restaurant. Who knows if that's true, but I would be more likely to believe it coming from her than Laurie from the OC.

Here is a clip from the upcoming RHONJ reunion show.

I can't wait! Have a great weekend everyone!!!

5 things you never knew about me

By the end of this, you may wish I had kept it that way. And if you are my bff or related to me than you may already know the majority of these. But you never know, you might find some of these things surprising.
1) Out of all the US Presidents, I find Abraham Lincoln the most attractive. I'm not sure why. I know he's not conventionally good looking, like JFK, but I still like him. I think it has something to do with how tall he is. And the beard. I'm a fan of beards. And the rumors of Liam Neeson playing him in an upcoming biopic are made of win.
2) I've never eaten a Twinkie. Or Spam. Just looking at either one makes me want to vom.
3) I know all of the State postal abbreviations and capitals. I can also tell you what state you're in if you give me the zip code. In addition, I'm able to name most of the area codes in Florida and Texas. Ah, the joys of working in a national call center.
4) When I was 10 years old I talked with Leonardo Dicaprio on the phone. My cousin was in a movie with him and they became friends. My cousin called me and my sister and we sat at our kitchen bar and chatted with Leo. This was before Romeo and Juliet or Titanic. While I would love to claim we had an in-depth discussion about the role of violence in movies or how he enjoyed working with Bobby DeNiro, that was not the case. He asked me what my favorite soft drink was and if I rode horses to school. Apparently I was a real conversationalist at 10, so I asked him what his favorite soft drink was (for inquiring minds, it's Sprite) and giggled for about five minutes after he asked about the horses. I think this is all that can be expected of a conversation between a girl of 10 and a movie star of 20. For the record: my cousin is no longer acting in movies. He currently works at Home Depot.
5) I swallow gum. I know it's supposedly bad for you, but I haven't died yet. I think the whole staying in your system for 10 years is a myth. My sister swallows her gum as well. And it's a hard habit to break. I'm not sure why we started doing it--my mom always got mad at us when we did it. We were odd children. To bring things full circle, I also have a distinct memory of swallowing a penny as a young child (and throwing it up afterwards). And my presidential boyfriend, Honest Abe is on the penny.
Have a great day!
Love,
Elle Bunny

Youtubesday: Emo Kid is throwing Slow-Mo Dove at my face

It's very likely that you've already seen this video or one of the other Literal 80's videos. But if you haven't seen this one yet, you should watch it as it is the best of the bunch.


I could watch this on repeat all day.
RPattz update:
First, the bad news: the Twihards went effing crazy in NYC yesterday and attacked him on the street when he was in between filming scenes of his new movie Remember Me. Here's the video.


Bitches are crazy. Poor Bert. I wouldn't blame him if he became a hermit after all of this Twilight stuff is over with. Second piece of bad news: Tombert will not be starring in this movie together. The part of Aidan will be played by this guy:

Not bad, but not how I pictured him. Because I'm a dork I pictured Kellan Lutz the whole time I read the script. I was thrilled at the idea of Tom playing Aidan, even though it was quite a switch. This actor is reportedly named Tate Ellington. Check out his IMDB here.
The good news: Lot of pics of Rob looking happy and healthy.
Apparently they decided to just let Rob wear his own clothes to play Tyler. Either that or the costume department isn't very creative.

Have a great day!

Nada Mucho to Report this New Moon Monday

I have to say, there isn't much to talk about this week.
First of all, there is this video of behind-the-scenes New Moon footage.

I'm getting excited! This looks awesome. But I wish they could employ a vocal coach for Taylor Lautner. His voice annoys the shit out of me. Otherwise, I'm super impressed by his dedication to the part and how great he looks in all the footage from the movie so far.
There have been rumors that Tom Sturridge might actually be playing the role of Aidan in Remember Me, but still no confirmation as of yet. That would be epic. To understand the love many of us have for Rob and his relationship with his BFF Tom, check this out:


Oh, goodness. That video never fails to amuse me. If you would like to follow their bromance, come join the hothobolove club. I love Tom (I also love this picture

Photobucket
because it looks like Rob and Tom are holding hands when really Tom is about a foot in front of Rob). If you haven't seen Tom in anything yet, you should definitely check him out in Murderous Intent (alternate title: Like Minds). That movie is awesomely weird. Oh, check out this video of Rob pwning a Paparazzi.


Robert in New York & the Paparazzi
by officialspunkransom
I feel a weird sense of pride at the way he handled that whole situation (if you couldn't understand it, here is a transcription of the dialogue in this video).
Pap-What?
Rob-What, what are you saying what for?
Pap-I'm just trying to get a photo of you.
Rob-(Laughs) Go away. (gets close then walks ahead) I'm gonna keep doing it.
Pap-You're too close.
Rob-Too close? (Laughs) Stop bumping into people.(Side note-nice of Rob to be concerned for the safety of others when he's being stalked) Its gonna be like this all night. alright?
Pap-Alright I got you already.
Rob-You gonna leave me alone?
Pap-Okay I will.
Rob-Alright?
Pap-Alright. Okay. You haven't seen me before. First time I got here.
Rob-What do mean you've never seen me before? It doesn't matter. You already got a photo.
Pap-Okay I'll let you go. Okay have a good night.
Creepy Stalkarazzi. But good for Rob for giggling about it the whole time and handling it calmly.
There are still some rumblings about Rob and Kris, and there is even a video out there of Ashley Greene responding to questions about their relationship and possibly confirming/denying it (depending on how you look at it). You can watch the video here, but I don't want to post it on my blog and I would caution against watching it. The whole interview is based on faulty information, as the Emma Watson interview that the reporter brings up was completely fabricated by a Russian magazine and was a poor English translation on top of that. Now that's just bad journalism.
KStew cut and dyed her hair for The Runaways, the movie in which she plays Joan Jett.

I admire her for actually cutting her hair instead of wearing a crappy wig. But I'm not gonna lie--she had fierce hair before

(I like the whole messy bed-head look) and this psuedo-mullet thing--while it's necessary for the role, it's not quite as becoming. But I actually like the color-it brings out her eyes. But my favorite look for Kristen has always been the blonde hair. Photobucket

Even though she's a natural brunette she is just meant to be a blonde in my opinion. She's been spending a lot of time with Dakota Fanning, who in addition to playing Jane in New Moon is also playing Cherie in The RunawaysPhotobucket
I think that their friendship is adorable, but don't you wonder what they talk about? I've been thinking about this quite a bit recently and I've narrowed their possible conversation topics down to either boys and unicorns or the economic crisis. I honestly don't have a clue what they talk about (probably growing up in the industry and/or the two movies they are working on together), but I'd love to be a fly on the wall during those convos.
In important news for Austinites, Little Ashes is coming to the Arbor on July 17. Not gonna lie, I want to go see this movie for the first time by myself. Because it seems like it could either be really funny or really sad or both. It also seems like it could be uncomfortable. And I giggle anytime I see him with the mustache. After all the interviews I've seen of Rob I had a hard time buying him as a vampire, so I'm guessing it might be harder to buy him as Salvador Dali.


Anywho, that's all I've got for today. Have a good one!

Love,

Elle Bunny

Zack Morris/Mark-Paul Gosselaar is Friday's Fun Fearless Male

If you haven't seen this yet, you must stop whatever you are doing and devote the next few minutes to watching it.


Can I just say that I love Mark-Paul for doing this? Most child/teen actors want to leave their well-known character behind and never talk about it interviews. Mark-Paul not only talked about it, he WAS Zack Morris in this interview. And he agreed to come to the Saved by the Bell reunion that Jimmy Fallon is planning.

Isn't it kind of amazing how he looks exactly the same? He looks at least 8 years younger than he did on Saved by the Bell: The College Years (not to mention 30 pounds lighter). Don't get me wrong, you can tell that he's wearing some heavy makeup. But he looks good (and the hair. GOD, the hair).

Mark-Paul Gosselaar has gone on to a fairly successful career. He's had recurring roles on many long-running television shows, including NYPD Blue, John from Cincinnati, and his newest show, Raising the Bar. And it must be acknowledged that he is still super good-looking.

So basically, Mark-Paul Gosselaar played an archetypal figure in the minds of many people around my age. The rambunctious, scheming good-looking guy who was always getting into mischief, but always got away with it because he was so gosh-darn likable. I realize that there were others before him and there have been others since, but for people of my generation, it just doesn't get any better than Zack Morris.
We didn't have the same over-saturation that kids have today. As the only live-action Saturday morning show for many years, SBTB looked different than anything else in the morning lineup. It was appointment television viewing for every kid my age. Who doesn't remember the prom that Kelly Kapowski couldn't afford to go to because her father lost his job and so Zack held an outdoor prom/picnic for the two of them right outside the gym? And there was that epic moment when Jessi and Slater were lip-syncing/singing Michael Bolton's "How Am I Supposed to Live Without You" in their gladiator gear and off-the-shoulder sweatshirt-clad Kelly breaks up with Zack because she wants to go out with the older guy, Jeff. These were life-changing moments for kids my age. And everybody talked about it.

Saved by the Bell is one of the shows that defined my generation. Actually, now that I think about it, I challenge anybody around 25 years of age to come up with any other show that so clearly represents our age group. One could make an argument for Beverly Hills, 90210, but boys didn't watch that show in large numbers. And there was lots of sex in that show. Saved by the Bell had sexy cast members (well...they were sexy by 90's standards) but the show itself never got too sexy. After all, they showed it on Saturday Mornings. But I digress; what I mean to say is it is hard to find a person around my age who doesn't know what the Max is (or for that matter, who Jeff Hunter is). You could go to any hip, downtown bar on a Friday night and suggest everyone do "The Sprain" and the majority of the people would know what you were talking about.

Thank you, Mark-Paul Gosselaar, for having the courage to don your Zack Morris gear again. And God bless you, Jimmy Fallon, for trying to get the gang back together.

Zack Attack!+The Roots=AWESOMENESS.

Have a great weekend everybody and remember to take a TIME OUT to acknowledge Mark-Paul Gosselaar as a fun, fearless male (TIME IN).

Love,

Elle Bunny
