I have a special place in my heart for terrible teen television. The O.C., Degrassi, Instant Star, South of Nowhere, Dawson’s Creek: I just can’t get enough of it. The cheesy acting, the terrible love dramas, the catty bitch fights. I LOVE IT.

Gossip Girl Is So Bad, It’s Good
Colbie Calliat is no Britney, Thank God.
MySpace has brought many an artist to the musical forefront, and Colbie Calliat is no exception. However, unlike many artists today, Calliat (like ballet) writes her own music.

Marriage Decline for the 20-Somethings, Rejoice!
I’m pretty sure EVERYONE I know is getting married.
That is… except me. And I’m in no rush. No rush at all. I have tons of friends who are getting married. And some of them, the ones who have been together for 5 plus years, or the ones who have been dating older guys for a […]
Jessica Simpson Takes It Country, Y’all!
Daddy Simpson is spreading the word. Big sis Jess is taking it country. No more bubblegum pop.
Although I will admit I loved “With You”…which I’m listening to right now…
That’s the reason I love Jessica Simpson. Her music sucks and its horrible… and I love it. It’s the dance around in your underwear, want to be […]
