Chace and JC’s Bo-mance

It’s a BO-mance people, not a RO-mance. That’s the emphatic cry of actor Chace Crawford and former ‘N Sync star JC Chasez. The Hollywood hotties say they are sick of fending off rumors that they are more than “just friends.” The Internet buzz brewing over a possible romance between Crawford and Chasez appears to be wearing on the pair. Addressing the rumor yet again an agigated Chasez recently told PEOPLE magazine: “You know what, it’s laughable the first time, but I think the tenth time, it gets annoying.” As for WB star Crawford his recent split from Carrie Underwood hasn’t … Continue reading

Gene Kelly: Anatomy of a Dancer (2002)

“Gene Kelly: Anatomy of a Dancer” was a made-for-television documentary that first aired in 2002. Now available to watch and own, I pounced on it like a starving bird on a worm – I’m sure you’ve noticed my deep and abiding love for that man. The film was a fascinating look behind the scenes at what made Gene great. He was born into a family of dancers. His mother opened a dance studio and for years, that’s how the Kellys earned their living. As a principle teacher in that studio, Gene realized at an early age what a contribution he … Continue reading

Sheryl Crow’s Looking For A Cowboy

I have always enjoyed listening to Sheryl Crow’s music; however, I will admit that I didn’t start following her personal life until she started dating Lance Armstrong. (It’s no secret that I think the seven-time Tour de France champ is hot.) Like millions of other Crow and Armstrong fans, I was caught off guard when the father of three divorced his wife and hooked up with Crow. But, I suppose, such is life in the fast lane. A couple of years went by and the new couple got engaged and publicly flaunted their relationship on various TV shows (mainly ones … Continue reading

Anatomy of “The Bo-mance”

You’ve heard of a Hollywood romance. You may even be familiar with the Hollywood sho-mance (when reality TV show stars hook up during their respective shows). Now get ready to add another “ance” to the list—the “Bo-mance.” It is loosely defined as two male stars who share a close friendship (or at least are photographed together so frequently as to raise questions about the true nature of their relationship). Recently, it’s the term of choice used to describe Lance Armstrong and Matthew McConaughey’s relationship. Now, the athlete and the actor are addressing rumors that they’re anything more than just pals. … Continue reading

Curbing the Electric Bill

Electricity is one of those monthly expenses that is somewhat in your control. After all, we demand the electricity, and then the electric company happily gives it to us and sends off the bill. Here are some ways that you can reduce your usage and reduce your cost. There are two main types of ways that we use electricity in our homes. The first is on demand, such as when we enter a room and turn on the light, and the second is continuous demand, such as when we plug in the refrigerator and leave it plugged in for its … Continue reading

Lance Armstrong Set to Ride Again

Back in the saddle again… and for once I’m not talking about Lance Armstrong’s love life. Rather, the man many considered the “King of Fitness,” is straddling his bike again on the road to what he hopes will be his eighth Tour de France title. The 36-year-old cancer survivor announced today that he plans to come out of retirement to cycle professionally. “I am happy to announce that after talking with my children, my family and my closest friends, I have decided to return to professional cycling in order to raise awareness of the global cancer burden,” Armstrong said in … Continue reading

Lance Armstrong’s Run for the White House?

I willing admit that I find Lance Armstrong attractive. How can I deny it now when I’ve already publicly professed my feelings for him in numerous blogs. However, I have never been keen on the way he handles his love life. From splitting with his wife (and the mother of their three young children) to walking out on his former fiancée Sheryl Crow, then dumping his last celebrity designer girlfriend, hooking up with Hollywood nymph Ashley Olsen and now actress Kate Hudson (who is young enough to be his daughter—okay, I’m exaggerating). All that drama aside the guy is an … Continue reading

Matthew McConaughey is a Dad

I sense a Hollywood hook up in the making. They were born on the same day, and who knows, in the future we might see them walking down the red carpet together. I’m talking about Matthew McConaughey’s new son and Nicole Kidman’s newborn daughter. Yesterday—7/7/08—turned out to be quite a lucky day for the superstar parents. PEOPLE Magazine’s former Sexiest Man Alive and his girlfriend of two years Camila Alves just confirmed that they are now the proud parents of a healthy baby boy. According to the actor’s rep, the newest McConaughey was born Monday at 6:22 p.m. in Los … Continue reading

Celebrity Good News/Bad News: Hollywood Hunk Hurts and Ellen Cheers

Matthew McConaughey might want to lay off the booze the next time he is traveling abroad. According to news reports, the handsome actor took a hit during a recent surfing trip to Nicaragua. Thieves reportedly made off with McConaughey’s cell phone and $2,000 in cash… while the actor was passed out. Star magazine reports that the movie star was so intoxicated after a night of partying that he had to be carried back to his hotel in San Juan Del Sur. This, after he reportedly stood on tables and belligerently asked patrons to help him find his missing flip-flops. The … Continue reading
