POP!: CC’s Weekly Round Up of all Things Pop Culture

Fashion
God, Charlize Theron is hot. And I love what she’s wearing.

Hottie of the Week
David Beckham. I hate his voice but man do I love him nearly naked.

Babies Babies Babies
Jamie Lynn Spears gave birth to a baby girl. Please don’t disappoint me by giving her a non-Hollywood crazy name. I don’t want to hear this talk of you giving her a pretty, normal name like Maddie.

Can everyone stop blaming teen pregnancies on “Juno”? I’m sure that movie didn’t influence a group of Massachusetts teenagers to make a ‘pregnancy pact.’

Karolina Kurkova, probably best known for her Victoria’s Secret spreads, “shocked” everyone who saw her “love handles and cellulite” at fashion week in Sao Paolo, Brazil. Karolina apologizes to everyone for eating and for having a booty.

In ‘Does Anyone Care?’ News
“Chinese Democracy” the album that is 14 years in the making, was leaked — but Guns n’ Roses shut that down almost immediately. Axl, just let it out before anyone who really cares to hear it is dead.

Song of the Week
Coldplay “Viva La Vida.” I love this song to death. I love the purple-y hazy commercial for iTunes. I love how it makes me feel super happy…so imagine my surprise to hear that they are being accused by the Creaky Boards, a little know US band, for ripping the song off of them. If you’re curious to see how they compare, you can listen here.

File Under Desperate
Marla Maples. I’ll give it to you – you are 44, survived being Mrs. Donald Trump #2 and that crappy pre-nup and you’re smokin’ hot but please stop it with the beach cartwheels. Just get a new agent and maybe he’ll find you some work.

    The model is paid to look perfect. She should hold up to what she is paid to be: a human coat hanger. She shouldn’t be complaining.

  2. Jess says :

    oh wow!
    cue to hundreds of american teens running tot he bathroom to throw up dinner after seeing that models eat too…
    Thanks Christie!

  3. Suzie - George Washington says :

    “a human coat hanger”
    ummmm…. no.

  4. christie says :

    Really, Suzie. Then what exactly do these models get paid to do? They’re paid to be skinny, pretty, and perfect. That’s their job and they should be good at their job if they’re getting paid so much money.

  5. Jessica says :

    That’s crazy. You said a model is paid to be “skinny, pretty, and perfect.” But why isn’t this perfect? Why does American culture association beauty with being skinny? Why the hell can’t stretch marks or cellulite be pretty? I mean, we all have them.

  6. christie says :

    They’re PAID to have bodies that are considered ideal to the rest of the population. Their job is to stay in shape and be the embodiments of perfection. Their getting paid. Hello. It’s their job.

  7. Courtney says :

    How right Christie is that models are paid to adhere to what the public thinks is perfection and clearly the model is failing to adhere the standard that is ‘considered ideal to the rest of the population.’ Bad model, bad. No food for you… oh wait. The real issue there is what the PUBLIC has come to view as IDEAL. … and we wonder why 13 year old girls have eating disorders.

  8. christie says :

    You have to be realistic. Models aren’t paid to look like you and I. Get over it. As for the anorexic little girls I could care less. It’s their parents obligation to instill a good body image. My parents did and I am satisfied with the body that I have which isn’t a models body but it is better than half the population’s bodies. Also, I have never wondered why 13 year old girls have eating disorders. Just for your information.

  9. J - NYU says :

    The word “perfect” sincerely frightens me.

    There’s no such thing.

  10. Kay says :

    Christie…there is only so much a parent can do to instill a positive body image when there are people like you who have this idea of a “perfect” body. Between other kids at school and the media, it almost doesn’t matter what the parents have taught their children. I’m a nurse who has worked with many patients with eating disorders, and I have seen first hand what it can do to people. I suggest you rethink your attitude, especially not caring about “anorexic little girls”. You could end up having a child with an eating disorder one day, and I doubt that you would say that you could care less then
