Lee Hyori- Hey Mr Big

Lee Hyori is one of my favourite singer from Korea. She's beautiful, talented, and she's a fine dancer. Check out her video that I had posted below. It's called Hey Mr. Big from her 3rd album, It's Hyorish. Although I prefer the singles from her previous album (Get Ya, Shall We Dance) but I do find this song to be quite addictive. XD

So here's the video. I found it on YouTube. You can find more of her videos there. Enjoy!


Kim Kardashian: Chilling at Mr. Chow


Enjoying a delicious end to her Tuesday, Kim Kardashian was spotted out to eat at the swanky, celebrity-popular restaurant Mr. Chow last night (March 31).

The “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” hottie looked absolutely beautiful in a shiny blue one-shoulder minidress teamed with a pair of black high-heels as she passed the paparazzi.




Earlier in the day, Kim was all about stimulating the sales ledger at her own store, purchasing several items at the Dash boutique in Calabasas.

Still needing more retail therapy, the “Disaster Movie” babe made her way to the Westfield Mall in Woodland Hills to spend some more cash.

Paris Hilton and Brittany Flickinger: BFFs No More


She got a quick boost of star power when she won “Paris Hilton’s My New BFF,” but not it seems Brittany Flickinger is a thing of the past.

According to a report, Miss Hilton has kicked Brit to the curb after feeling like she was being used by the wannabe celebrity.





A source told press, “In fact, they haven’t spoken in two months. All that girl wanted was the free trips, the goodie bags, staying at Paris’ mansion and the parties and clubs.”

The insider continued, “She was desperate for money. She was another one of these girls using Paris to get famous. We’ve seen it happen a million times. In January at Sundance, Paris realized everything everyone was telling her was the truth.”

Despite having a bad experience the first time around, Paris is jumping back into the reality TV circle with a new season of “BFF” that she’s currently filming.

Amy Winhouse: Prettied Up at the Hard Rock Café


We’re used to seeing her up on stage, but last night (March 31) Amy Winehouse was content to rock out from the audience at a concert in London.

The “You Know I’m No Good” songstress was spotted hanging out at the Hard Rock Café where she enjoyed a concert from the band Bats for Lashes, sporting a cut on her leg and a bloodshot eye.





In related news, it seems Miss Winehouse may be getting even more help on her new album - Jay-Z is showing interest in coming alongside the troubled singer and helping her in the studio (Mark Ronson has also pledged support).

The “99 Problems” rapper told press, “Amy has a really powerful voice, it is so distinctive and beautiful. Hopefully in the future we could get together and work on some new material - I’d love to work with her again.”

Brody Jenner: Flirting with Rihanna?


He’s no stranger to a high-profile evening out, and last night Brody Jenner was spotted hitting up Hollywood hotspot Bar Delux.

The “Bromance” hunk was joined by a few friends as he arrived at the club, looking cool and casual in a black baseball cap, black shirt, distressed jeans, and black Converse All-Stars.





Also in the house was R&B singer Rihanna, who just may be showing some interest in Mr. Jenner after a telltale dinner out earlier this week.

On Wednesday night (March 25), Brody was reportedly the object of Rihanna’s affection as they were both spotted eating separately at Nobu restaurant.

According to an eyewitness, the “Take a Bow” songstress was “smiling and flirting” with a group of guys that included Jenner - although other insiders are reporting that it’s actually Brody’s pal, Frankie Delgado, who caught the Barbadian beauty’s eye.

Earth Hour 2009. We can save the world!


Okay everyone, today is an important day. It's Earth Hour day! Today, 28th March 2009, from 8.30 p.m. to 9.30 p.m., we all need to turned off all non-essential electricity in our house and business premises. It's to raise awareness to people about the global warming and climate change and what we need to do or what we can do to help Earth. It's our fault anyway (?!), so we need to take action.

I plan to hang out with my family in the dark and eat snacks while exchanging ghost stories. You can still fun without electricity y'know. I hope you guys can find fun things to do during Earth Hour, just make sure no electricity involve. :-)

Together, we can make a difference. Peace.

Dragonball Evolution ~ review





There were a lot of negative things being said about Dragonball Evolution. So here's a positive review about the live-action movie that, I assume, would be hard to find on the web.

Dragonball Evolution is a manga/anime adaptation of the ever-so-popular Dragonball franchise. To compare Dragonball Evolution to the original series would be unfair because the movie is nothing like the original. Hollywood has a reputation of changing stories from the original source to their own version and this movie is no exception. In this version, we follow the adventure of Goku and his friends in their quest to stop the evil Piccolo from destroying the world. Here's my opinion about the movie. Don't worry, no spoilers.

The plot of the movie, while still good, needs to be improved...a lot! There are too many holes that need to be filled, too many things that were left unanswered. Why Piccolo wants to destroy the world? Why does he needs dragonballs when obviously he can destroy the world with his own hands? How does he escaped from his prison? How did Mai became Piccolo partner-in-crime? Who is Goku? How did he gain that 'monstrous power'? Etc2. Since this movie is not made according to the plot from the original series, so I think the writers should have include more explanation on the backstory. Even fans (like me!) was confused when watching the movie. But in general, I must say that the story is quite decent. If only it was a little bit longer.

This is quite unexpected but I must say...the casts were all good! Justin Chatwin cleverly played with emotions (like frustration) really well, quite a fine actor he is. Emmy Rossum was entertaining as Bulma and Chow Yun-Fat was fantastic as Master Roshi. Master Roshi in the movie is by far the most resembled to the original character in the manga / anime. Jamie Chung was excellent too as Chi Chi. She was very gentle, but very fierce too when she fights. Randall Duk Kim was very lovable as Grandpa Gohan. However, James Marsters could improve as Piccolo. He seems a bit stiff. I was quite disappointed too with the character Mai. Eriko Tamura who played Mai did a fine job but her character was portrayed as weak. They could have made her a bit strong so that she would seem more appealing. The character Yamcha, a desert bandit played by Joon Park, was a waste. He could have a much more important role in the movie other than a comic-relief.

The special effects in this movie were quite decent. Some were quite good but some were quite childish like the fighting scenes. Nevertheless, I prefer the visuals and special effects in this movie than the last movie that I watched before this. But I do wish that they would show the audience more of the futuristic world that the movie was set in.

Overall, I give 4 stars out of 5 for Dragonball Evolution. I love it! Most of the fans would hate it, I assume, because the movie derailed too much from the original not just in plot but also in characters design. But hey, everyone entitled to their own opinion. For me, it's an entertaining movie and I really wish they would make a sequel. But that would have to depend on the ticket sales.

Lady GaGa Dazzles at the House of Blues


Continuing along with her touring ways, Lady GaGa was busy performing at the House of Blues in Chicago, Illinois on Tuesday night (March 24).

“My name is Lady Gaga and I’ve got no money because I’ve spent it all on my show,” she told the crowd. “But tonight, Windy City, I feel beautiful and dirty rich.”





And it sounds as if the “Paparazzi” singer put on quite a show for the packed house, performing in a variety of outfits including scantily-clad leotards and a plastic bubble dress.

One of the show’s highlights was when GaGa showed off her skills during “an acoustic and showtunes-esque” rendition of her hit song “Poker Face” on a piano - with GaGa even using her feet to play the instrument throughout the hit tune.

Fergie Reaches Her Weight Loss Goal


Keeping up on her physical fitness, Stacy “Fergie” Ferguson was spotted out with her personal trainer in Los Angeles on Wednesday (March 25).

Though the Black Eyes Peas singer had been at her daily routine for an hour, she hadn’t even broken a sweat as she walked along while offering up a smile for paparazzi on-hand.



Nonetheless, Fergie has recently reached her goal of dropping 15 pounds which she gained for the movie “Nine,” which she worked on late last year.

“I’m finally back to the weight that I was before the film. It’s taken me forever!” the 34-year-old tells In Touch. “I have a trainer. I started doing it myself. I didn’t lose all of it for the wedding, but I fit into my dress, so I was happy. Now I’m just trying to sculpt and get ready for the tour, get my stamina up.”

Talking about her recently dyed brunette locks, Fergie adds, “I’ve never been a brunette. I’m married, I’m coming back with the Black Eyed Peas – I wanted to do something different.”

Windmills!

From all the photo shoots the girls had in Amsterdam, this one is my favourite.

For episode 12 in America's Next Top Model cycle 11, the girls had a photo shoot at a farm, a Dutch farm to be exact, complete with windmills. There were 4 girls left; Marjorie, Samantha, McKey and Analeigh.

For this photo shoot, my favourite has to be from Analeigh. She looks gorgeous and her jumping pose was perfect! I like her photo a lot. Some girls (Elina and Lauren Brie were some that I remembered) said that she doesn't have what it takes to be a model and I had to disagree with them, she DOES! This shot proved that she can model. She was called first to received her photo during the judging. Yay!

Analeigh


The judges didn't like with Marjorie's photo but I kinda like it. I don't know, it kinda works for me. McKey did quite good too. Well, she always take great pictures, so I know she would be fine in this photo shoot.

McKey


Marjorie


My least favourite is from Samantha. She looks dull. Sorry....

Anyway, like I said, the judges didn't like Marjorie's picture. She was placed in the bottom 2 together with Samantha...and Marjorie was eliminated. Poor Marjorie. She tried to gain more confidence but ultimately that was the cause of her elimination.

Miley Cyrus Talks ‘Hannah Montana’ Movie


Coming up next month, Miley Cyrus’ new flick “Hannah Montana: The Movie” will make its way into theaters. And in a recent interview, the 16-year-old explained that the film isn’t her swan song with the Disney character.

Miley told press, “This movie was never meant to be the end of Hannah Montana. The thing is, a lot of people put where the show’s future lays in my hands — and it’s not up to me. It’s up to Disney and whether they want more episodes, and we hope that they do.”




But facing reality, Miss Cyrus has come to terms with the fact that her “Hannah” days may be coming to a close. “It’s just an honor for people to be able to relate to me and my music — and not so much the character anymore. I can’t be Hannah Montana forever. I have to have something after this. I can’t do this when I’m 30.”

And not filming the show has given Miley a chance to reconnect with her personal life. “It’s, like, the first time I’ve seen all my friends in seven months. It’s hard, man. With all the stuff that goes on with this business, I only want to do something if I absolutely love it.”

Patrick Swayze Mourns Loss of Natasha Richardson


He’s been dealing with his own battle with pancreatic cancer, but when Natasha Richardson passed away unexpectedly last week, Patrick Swayze was stunned.

The “Dirty Dancing” stud worked with the late actress in the film “Waking Up in Reno” and gave a heartfelt statement to press regarding her passing.




He said, “It is such a great loss to this community to lose an actress and person such as Natasha. Gifts like her don’t come along very often. It’s a rare thing in this industry to have someone with so much talent, beauty, and dedication and yet is imbued with such humility.”

Swayze continued, “I know for me and many other people, the world will be a different place without her. My heart goes out to Liam [Neeson, her husband] and his two boys, but I’m sure that Natasha’s light is shining down on them.”

Team Urameshi...from 5 to 4


Yup, you read that right. In Volume 10 of the manga YuYu Hakusho, Team Urameshi lost a contestant. Not because of withdrawal or injury, but because of death. Yes, a contestant in Team Urameshi died. A lot of spoilers here, so stop reading if you want to find it out yourself.

Vol. 10 continues on the semi-final round between Team Urameshi and Team Otogi Ura. So far Hiei has won 2 fights (in Vol. 9). We get to see the rest of the action in the 3rd fight between Kurama and Urashima Ura. Kurama in his demon fox form (thanks to the fog released by Urashima Ura) intended to force some answers out from Urashima Ura about the secrets of the fog but to avoid him from spilling any more secrets, Shishi Wakamaru killed him instead. And so, Kurama won the 3rd fight. He turned back to his human form after the fog had gone.

The 4th fight between Shishi Wakamaru and Kuwabara was short where Wakamaru transported Kuwabara to another place using a cloak. The 5th fight took quite some time where Genkai returned to the arena to fight Shishi Wakamaru. Having her mask torn during the fight, all the audience knew then that Mask was actually Genkai. She had quite a reputation in the demon world for killing a lot of powerful demons when she was young. The fight ended with Genkai winning it even though she had just transfered most of her power to Yuusuke.

The short 6th fight was between Kuwabara (who had just got back from where he was transported) and the Otogi Ura team leader, Onzii. Again, Kuwabara was transported to another place and lost the fight. He was quite unlucky in this semi-final round I must say. The last fight was between Genkai and Onzii, who revealed himself to all that he was actually Suzuki, the 'beautiful' demon fighter. He was quite funny during the fight, and he was easily defeated by Genkai. And so Team Urameshi won the semi-final round and moved on to the finals.

After that, we get to see the Toguro team in action during their semi-final round. It was short, brief and cruel because the difference of strength between the 2 teams was quite big. Well, at least we get a taste of what we will see in the finals. The one I'm looking forward to is Karasu, his power is quite mysterious.

Then, the major event in Vol. 10 appears nearly at the end of the manga. Genkai met with the younger Toguro in a forest...to fight! They actually know each other, in fact they were lovers!!! Toguro wished to become a demon when he won the Dark Tournament 50 years ago so that he would become young, live longer and will always be strong. They had quite a fight but Toguro was too strong for Genkai and she was defeated. Yuusuke managed to get to Genkai to hear her last words. He tried to fight with Toguro but he was punched so hard he was sent flying to the other side of the forest. And that's the end for Vol. 10 of YuYu Hakusho.

Stay tune because I will be back with the review of Vol. 11 where the final round begins.

Paris Hilton and Doug Reinhardt’s Fast-Track Romance



Keeping their romance in high gear, Paris Hilton and boyfriend Doug Reinhardt were spotted spending the day side-by-side in Los Angeles on Monday afternoon (March 23).

The publicity-loving couple first grabbed up a bite to eat at the popular Chinese restaurant Chin Chin before heading over to the Hollywood Lucky Strike bowling alley at Hollywood and Highland.



And though their relationship is still in its early phase, rumors are already swirling about a possible upcoming engagement.

Of the situation, an insider told the tabloids, “Doug is smitten with Paris and wants to spend the rest of his life with her. He’s already found the perfect ring, asked her father for permission and is now waiting for the right time to pop the question.”

Bridget Marquardt Shows Off Her Swimsuit Figure


Continuing her romp around the globe, Bridget Marquardt was back out for more filming of her new reality show “Bridget’s Sexiest Beaches” on Monday afternoon (March 23).

The former “Girls Next Door” star hopped into a figure-revealing black swimsuit as she playfully posed for the cameras while lounging next to the pool.



Not far removed from the show’s debut, “Bridget’s Sexiest Beaches” is back this Thursday (March 26) with a brand new episode from Jamaica at 10pm on the Travel Channel.

Aside from her show, Miss Marquardt is enjoying a brand new relationship following her split with Hugh Hefner, as she’s now dating Nicholas Carpenter.

While there have been rumors of a possible wedding, Bridget denied the claims, telling, “No, not engaged – not even talking about that kind of stuff! I’m happy just to be dating and I think things are perfect as they are.”

Natasha Bedingfield’s Wedding Pictures


She’s a happily married woman as of this past Saturday, and from the looks of it Natasha Bedingfield had a picture-perfect wedding.

The “Pocketful of Sunshine” songstress was a beautiful blushing bride in a strapless cream silk Vera Wang dress with a massive train and an elegant veil as she said “I Do” with businessman hubby Matt Robinson.




The two lovebirds tied the knot at the Church Estates Vineyards in Malibu, California (the same place Fergie and Josh Duhamel got hitched), and according to Bedingfield it was nothing short of amazing.

She told press, “Our wedding day was everything we’d hope it would be. It was simple, beautiful and natural. Free from trappings or formalities, it was more about expressing our love for one another in front of those we hold dearest to us than anything else.”

Natasha continued, “We are now very much looking forward to spending the rest of our lives together. Love is hard to find, so when you do find it, hang on to it!”

Lindsay Lohan Steps Out for More Treatment


While her lack of money and unemployment woes are said to be causing all kinds of stress, Lindsay Lohan was spotted sneaking into her rehab program in Glendale, California on Monday (March 23).

The “Mean Girls” starlet did her best to avoid eye contact with awaiting paparazzi, heading into the building’s parking garage entrance for another session at the Right On program.

As for her career, rumors tell that Miss Lohan may be focusing more on modeling following her recent Fornarina campaign and absence of movie offers.

Talking about the lack of work, LiLo said, “It’s scary when you realize, ‘Oh my God, I’m not working. And I have a house to pay for now.’... and there’s been some things I’ve really wanted to do.”

Paris Hilton: Another Season of BFF


Though we haven’t seen much of her first season’s BFF Brittany Flickinger, Paris Hilton is back on the prowl for a new guy or girl to fulfill the role of ‘bestie.’

The “Simple Life” starlet was spotted filming an episode for a new season of “Paris Hilton: My New BFF” on 3rd Street in Hollywood, California yesterday afternoon (March 22).




And it sounds like Miss Hilton is also thinking of motherhood currently, with reports telling that she has toned down her partying lifestyle in preparation for getting pregnant.

A source revealed that Paris is keeping all of her best dresses for her future daughters, and that she’s ready to settle down with boyfriend Doug Reinhardt. “Paris thinks Doug is handsome, generous and fun to be with.”

Nadya Suleman Fires Free Nannies


Looking as if she’s not going to accept the help after all, Nadya Suleman has reportedly fired the free nursing staff offered up by Angels In Waiting.

Spotted out earlier today (March 23) meeting with her realtor, Miss Suleman told RadarOnline that she plans to use her own nannies that were already lined-up prior to the offer for free care.




Of the announcement made by Nadya, lawyer Gloria Allred told press: “We have no comment at this time. We will respond tomorrow afternoon with the true facts.”

Meanwhile, those associated with Angels in Waiting are lined up for an appearance on Dr. Phil tomorrow, with Octomom also hoping to squeeze onto the guest list so that she can defend her decision to snub the cost-free helping hands.

Race to Witch Mountain ~ review





I love Septimus Heap & Pendragon book series. I love manga, anime and cartoon. And I love Mickey Mouse and all his famous friends. As you can see, I'm very tolerable when it comes to kids-related stuff and so one would expect me to love Race to Witch Mountain, a Disney movie. I was expecting the same thing but unfortunately, I didn't.

Race to Witch Mountain is another remake from Hollywood starring Dwayne Johnson (or you may know him as The Rock) as Jack Bruno the taxi driver, AnnaSophia Robb as Sara the alien daughter, Alexander Ludwig as Seth the alien son, Carla Gugino as Dr. Alex Friedman the ET scientist, and Ciaran Hinds as Henry Burke the government agent.

The story is quite good and suitable for kids, and the acting is also good especially from both the alien kids. What I have problem with is the special-effects. Being a Disney movie, this movie SHOULD have good if not great special-effects to wow the audience with the visuals. Early in the movie there is one cool scene involving Seth and a black car which made a girl seating behind me said out loud "That's so cool!". So I expected that the rest of the movie will be just fine. However, right before the end of it, there is one scene involving the 4 protagonists that made me go "Wow, that is one ugly special effects". I mean, seriously, it was ugly and unacceptable. I know it's a movie for kids but that's not an excuse. Futhermore, there are some outdoor scenes that looks like they were shot in studio. I'm not sure whether they were shot in a studio or not but somehow they managed to made the movie looks kinda cheap which I know it's not.

However, having said all that, Race to Witch Mountain IS a suitable movie for kids and adults (especially parents) alike. Just don't expect too much of it. Or you will be dissapointed...just like me.

Lindsay Lohan’s Night Out in LA


Venturing out on the town, Lindsay Lohan was spotted hanging out with a mystery male last night (March 19) in Los Angeles.

The “Georgia Rule” cutie was picked up from SamRo’s house by a guy driving a silver Porsche and driven to a private event before hitting up Villa Lounge.

After heading inside, Miss Lohan later met back up with girlfriend, Samantha Ronson, as the two left Villa in Miss Ronson’s car before heading home.

In related news, LiLo paid a touching tribute to her “Parent Trap” costar Natasha Richardson, so passed away Wednesday after suffering a head injury while skiing.

Lindsay told press, “She was a wonderful woman and actress and treated me like I was her own. I didn’t see much of her over the years but I will miss her. My heart goes out to her family. This is a tragic loss.”

Rihanna and Chris Brown: Sex Tape Scandal?


They’ve been through quite a few ups and downs as of late, and here’s another possible down for them to add to the list – it is being reported that Rihanna and Chris Brown have a sex tape.

The “Disturbia” songstress has been seen out partying without her “bad tempered” boyfriend and apparently now finds herself worried that Brown will release their tape out of anger that they’re not back together.

A source says, “Rihanna has no issues with her sexuality. But she’d be mortified if her friends and family found this out! This whole beating incident is terribly humiliating for her.”

The insider added, “She’s already traumatized and will do anything to make it all go away as quickly as possible. The last thing in the world Rihanna wants is to see herself in the sex videos all over the Internet! She’s an intensely private person.”

Monsters Vs Aliens...okay, this one looks cool.


When it comes to CG / 3D animation, I always prefer movies from PIXAR / Walt Disney. I never really enjoy Shrek except for Puss, never watch Kung Fu Panda, and never really like Bee Movie. I do have movies from studios other than PIXAR / Walt Disney that I like for example Antz and Robots but there are not many of them. But Monsters vs Aliens looks kinda cool, to me at least. The characters look funny and memorable, and the premise of the movie looks promising. I don't know, I can't really judge a movie before I see one but based on the trailer, I can tell that this movie will be a hit...well, hopefully.

Here's a trailer of Monsters vs Aliens, this one is a lot funny than the trailer that I watched recently in a cinema. Hope you guys agree with me. Enjoy! (Source: IGN)

Do you prefer soft and gentle or over-the-top?

In episode 11 of America's Next Top Model Cycle 11, the girls went on go-sees in Amsterdam with small boats and hunks as a guide. Wow, that's pretty unique. McKey would have won the go-sees challenge (as I expected) for being booked in all of her 4 go-sees but she was disqualified for being late and so Analeigh won it instead (yay!).

For this episode, the girls had a double photo shoots; 1 in heavy make-up and fancy clothes while another one with a natural look and no make-up.

In my opinion, all of the girls did quite good for the photo shoot with no make-up with Samantha and McKey producing the best pics. I love Analeigh and I really want her to win but I have to be honest, her pic along with Elina's are my least fave from this photo shoot. Sorry Analeigh, I still love you though.

Samantha- Gorgeous!


McKey- Wow!


Marjorie- Odd but pretty.


Analeigh- Not so strong this time.


Elina- Average.


For the photo shoot with heavy make-up and fancy clothes, I have only 2 pics that I love; Samantha and Marjorie. Both girls look stunning especially Samantha with her posing.

Samantha- LOVE THIS!


Marjorie- Fierce!


Elina and Marjorie were in the bottom 2 and Elina was eliminated. Well, like the rest of us, I think she saw it coming.

Dragonball Evolution: Will it survive?


This movie had been discussed quite regularly recently. From what I read, most of the people on the web feel that this movie will go downhill rather than uphill. I can't blame them really because the people behind the movie change quite a lot of things from the original manga series that made most of the fans pissed off. I personally quite disappointed that they changed the plot from the original. That is quite a turned off for me at least.

But, there is still hope. I mean, the trailers look quite good. In fact, come to think of it, maybe the change of plot was a good move. I can't imagine if they stick with the original storyline and it sucks, I probably would not be able to read the manga without thinking how bad the movie was. That would be a major turned off. Besides, I kinda like Emmy Rossum. So hopefully she did well as Bulma in the movie. :D

Here's the trailer to Dragonball Evolution that I got from IGN (thanx!). The movie had already been released in most of Asian countries (maybe because of the popularity of the manga) and I did tried to get a ticket for a midnight show last Friday but sadly the cinema hall was already full. Hopefully I can find some other day to watch it.

Enjoy the trailer! :-)


Kim Kardashian:Day At The Salon


Back on the west coast after a promotional trip to New York City, Kim Kardashian was in the mood for a little personal pampering in Beverly Hills on Wednesday (March 18).

The “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” starlet ventured over to Beverly Hills Nail Design, relaxing in her chair as salon workers tended to her every need.

In related news, Kim has been tapped for her knowledge of beauty by style guru Carson Kressley to help promote the new Caress Skinwear Collection of body washes and beauty bars.

Giving her approval of the new product line, Kim told press, “Gorgeous skin is always in style on the red carpet, so when I want to make a statement I know my skin has to look beautiful and even toned. One of my favorite finds is the new Caress Evenly Gorgeous body wash - it has karite butter and burnt brown sugar ... it makes my skin look and feel amazing. The Caress Skinwear Collection compliments my entire wardrobe and gives me beautiful skin right out of the shower.”

Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush’s Sexy Spread


She’s never been bashful when it comes to showing off her curves, and in a new GQ photo spread, Kim Kardashian steams it up with her hunky boyfriend Reggie Bush.

In one shot, the “Disaster Movie” starlet poses on her man’s back while he does pushups, while in another pic they pose together against an Audi sportscar.

Of the experience, Kim blogged, “We were super excited for this shoot, but also a bit nervous. We had never done a shoot together and didn’t know what to expect!”

Continuing to rave about the photo session, she wrote, “It turned out super hot and we love it. We did the shoot at an amazing mansion in Los Angeles.”

Kendra Wilkinson: Playmate On-the-Go


Ready to do a bit of traveling, Kendra Wilkinson was spotted making her way through LAX Airport in Los Angeles with a male friend on Tuesday (March 17).

Carrying a pink Playboy blanket to help keep herself comfortable during the flight, the former “Girls Next Door” starlet and her travel buddy made their way past security and towards their terminal for departure as they disappeared from paparazzi view.

Meanwhile, the recently engaged Playmate took to her blog earlier today in support of former roomie Holly Madison, who jumped into the “Dancing with the Stars” lineup as a last-minute replacement.

Wilkinson wrote: “Holly did so amazing on DWTS last night! I didn’t know she could work it like that on the dance floor, and she looked SMOKIN in that purple dress! I don’t care what the judges said or what score she got, my girl still killed it and she looked hotttt!”

Talking about what she’d like to see in upcoming episodes of the hit reality show this season, Kendra adds, “I’m crossing my fingers that Dancing with the Stars makes them dance to some hip-hop this season because you know I’ll be in the dance studio with Holly and Dmitry teaching them some of my freaky moves hahaha!!!”

Amy Winehouse: a man I’m Innocent!


She arrived at the City of Westminster Magistrates Court this morning looking a bit crazed in a flowery dress. And according to Amy Winehouse, she’s innocent of the charges made against her.

The troubled “Rehab” songstress made the point that her name is Amy Jade Civil (her married name) before pleading not guilty to the common assault charge.

Winehouse is being accused of attacking Sherene Flash back in September of 2008 at a high society ball held in London’s Berkeley Square.

And though she claims she’s innocent, it stands to reason that there will be a fun-filled legal drama to ensue. Stay linked to the Gossip Girls for the latest in Amy’s courtroom antics.

Kim Kardashian: Leave LiLo Alone!


Making the most of her time in New York City, Kim Kardashian was spotted leaving Nobu 57 following a swanky dinner last night (March 16).

The “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” hottie and her mother Kris Jenner were immediately swarmed by shutterbugs as they stepped out onto the Manhattan sidewalk, both looking quite elegant.


As for the growing speculation that Lindsay Lohan is on the brink of yet another meltdown, Kim recently told press that it’s a shame that people won’t just leave her alone.

She commented, “It’s so sad that there’s such an invasion of privacy, with camera people, cops and paparazzi outside their home. I mean, when have you not thrown something when you’re mad? Everyone has to admit that at one time in their life, they’ve gotten so mad that they’ve thrown something, but maybe not necessarily breaking a window.”

Resident Evil 5: The mission continues


The mission to annihilate zombies continues. Chris Redfield returns with a new partner, Sheva Alomar to save us all from the evil Umbrella Corp. from terrorizing human with zombies. Resident Evil 5 finally released this March worldwide and scores quite a high mark with the critics. Congratulation to all the people behind this awesome game!

Here's the trailer to the game. I think if you are a gamer, then you should buy this game. I feel like it's a must! Unless, of course, you don't have Playstation 3 or XBox 360 like me. :-(

Anyway, enjoy the trailer!

Earlier in the day, Kim was spotted arriving at LaGuardia airport on a flight from Miami, licking a lollipop as she made her way to a waiting car.

The night before, the “Disaster Movie” dame enjoyed a cultural night out with her boyfriend Reggie Bush at Russell Simmons’ Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation Art For Life gala at Miami’s Fontainebleau Hilton.

Watchmen ~ review






Here's a review from a person who lives on the other side of the world and never knew about Watchmen until this movie was made.

First of all, I must say that I was impressed with the movie. It was beautifully made with lots of cool visual effects that really worth the admission fee. The movie starts off rather slow and continues on with a slow pace until the end. Boring? Some of you may feel that way but definitely not for me because this is not a typical action superhero (or superheroes coz they are a lot of them) movie but much much more deeper than that. It explores the themes of love, sacrifices, existence, morality, and many other things that I may not be able to think of. And it also made me wonder how much will it cost to make the world a better place. Like one of the character claimed, kill millions to save billions. Was it really necessary?

I really enjoy the movie although two of my friends who were with me nearly fallen asleep. I really can't blame them though because we watched the midnight show and the movie was nearly 3 hours long. Besides, they were expecting a lot of action like your usual typical superhero movies that has been invading theaters over the years. Nevertheless, you can enjoy the movie if you focus on the story. I like how the story was told with all the flashbacks and the long introduction in the beginning of the movie. It really helps in introducing the audiences (especially those who are not familiar with the comic books) with the alternate timeline that the movie was set in.

But with little exposure from the source material, I think Watchmen will struggle a bit in finding its place in my country, Malaysia. We are more exposed to mangas and anime than Western comic books, although there are specialized comic stores around the country which provide these kind of stuff. It would help if the superheroes are popular like Superman or Batman, unfortunately they aren't. People who are not familiar with it might avoid it (like my cousins) while people who watched it might come out from theaters disappointing because they expect it to have more action than it had offered (like my 2 friends).

So here's my advice; don't expect anything. Just watch the movie and focus on the story rather than anticipating the action. I'm not sure which did the comic books explore more, the story or the action but the movie definitely favors the former. You might like it, you might not. Either way, you will have your eyes feast with beautifully shot scenes and CGI. So I hope that will do to make up the admission fee if you feel the movie sucks.

I gave 4 stars out of 5 for Watchmen. Good job Zack Snyder and all of the crews. Good job.
