I have a new celebrity crush. Ted Gibson, hairstylist to the stars, is sooo adorable! I haven't seen a man wear pink so well in ages.
I'm watching 100 women get new haircuts courtesy of Oprah. For the most part the transformations are pretty amazing (and Ms. O even cut Hilary Swank's hair), but the woman who comes out with the Carol Brady 'do and says she now feels fabulous. Not too sure about that one. And there are a lot of heavy bangs going on. Did you know they call bangs "fringe" in England? When I was on tour with doves we had about a day's worth of fun trying to sort that one out. Anyway, I must confess I have a total weakness for makeover shows and I'm sad that the original What Not to Wear isn't on anymore (even though their hair and makeup fixes were always a bit suspect). I miss Trinny and Susannah!
I would love for Oprah's celebrity hair peeps to get hold of me but now my hair is short and pink so I really don't know what else they could do (well, maybe not Ken Paves. He sort of scares me, and I don't want to end up looking like a Jessica Simpson hairpiece.. Also, Tom's sister does my hair, and she's the best). Everyone's going to laugh at me when I go back to work next week, but I live to bring comedy to my pals. I'm just like the Man of Smiles in The Legend of Zelda: The Phantom Hourglass!
OMG! The Osmonds reunite next week on Oprah! There's a picture of me floating around out there from 1977 and I have on my sky blue Donny & Marie t-shirt and am sporting a Dorothy Hamill haircut. I saw The Osmonds on tour at the Cotton Bowl in Dallas. I am a huge, huge dork and now I can't wait to revel, once again, in all their Mormon glory.
In other news...
Stephen Colbert didn't make it onto the Democratic ticket in South Carolina. Don't worry, I'm sure he'll make it on the Repub's. Insert "not" joke here.
Britney Spears' monthly expenses are $49,267. Oof! I don't make that in a year! I didn't know tanning in Bel Air and being stupid cost that much!
Inside Edition is featuring David Copperfield's pickup techniques tonight. That's not tacky or anything.
I'm sure you've all heard about Duane "Dog" Chapman's racist rant at his son. Well, it turns out the jerk doesn't fall far from the tree as said son is the one who leaked it to the press! I'd never even heard of this guy until this happened and I hope I can go back to never hearing of him again. And I hope they don't let him keep the "dog" name as it's an insult to pooches everywhere. Yet another racist white dude with bad hair is outed to the world. Tee hee, I say.
OK, phone call. Back later,
Ms. P
Oh, I would love to see a picture of your short, pink hair!
ReplyDeleteAnd I am now ever-so-delighted my husband and I did not end up doing Halloween this year. The plan was to go as Dog and Beth (because let's face it, their everyday attire IS a Halloween costume). So, we're glad we didn't promote him. Also, my hubbster is black, so imagine the additional (hindsight) relief we felt after this story broke.
Ergh.
For the first time in years, I didn't dress up for Halloween. (For shame!) To be fair, though, I had an unexpected medical issue that prevented me from having the time to put anything together. And, worst of all, I had to work Oct. 27 from 6 a.m. - 2:30 p.m., so there was no way I was attending Friday night parties and I would have been too off kilter to make much of a night of Saturday either.
ReplyDeleteBetter luck next year.
I'm sorry to hear you had a medical problem! And early Sunday work. Oy. I can't remember the last time I dressed up for Halloween. I'm too shy which might sound weird given how I write.
