"Oh now, Debra, don't be bitter, surely with your...brand new neo-nazi boot camp makeover the boys will come a-runnin'."

~~ Renee Zellweger as Gina in Empire Records

Breaking News...

Our boy Taylor Kitsch (yeah he's ours now) has undergone a dramatic makeover.


Verdict: I don't like it! And this is coming from me - I love a man with short hair, the shorter the better. But obviously his sexiness was trapped in his hair because with the new look he's just...meh. Let's hope he brings back the locks.


In other news....

Have you seen this new snack?


I hadn't heard of it, but tried one on the weekend.

Verdict: AH-Mazing!! Freakin good. I suggest you run out and buy. Bonus: low fat content! And a tip - don't try heating them up. It doesn't work out...


In other other news...

New employee at our local Tim's. Seems friendly. They'll knock that out of her. Our favourite "Lady!" made tea in a whole new way this morning....a full cup of water then the tea bag, no stir. It's not like the tea bag really needs to steep in the water anyways. That's just an old wives' tale.

"What makes you think I'm not interested in fashion?"

~~ Anne Hathaway as Andy Sachs in The Devil Wears Prada

Blind item:
What "admin assistant" (can't say that seriously) was spotted today wearing brown tights-as-pants, spike heels, skin-tight white t-shirt (coming only to the waistband of said tights-as-pants) and cropped, skin-tight orange short-sleeved cardigan? Hint: She had a phone glued to her ear and a particular "swagger".

"I'll have what she's having."

~~ restaurant customer in When Harry Met Sally

TGIF! But the real acronym for the day is WTF... Here are my wtf moments for the day:

#1: Lisa Bonet resurfaces
And is with that big Conan guy? And has not aged a single day. Damn her! But seriously, doesn't everyone in this picture look around the same age? Kinda like siblings?




#2: More Catwoman updates
I'm sorry, there is nothing Catwoman-y here. Mission:Impossible? Cyclops? Sure. I hope this gets better.




#3: Lacey Schwimmer is not actually playing a superhero...in anything
Which leaves me with absolutely no explanation for this getup. Is she joining the WWE? Maybe that's it...




#4: Kim Kardashian does the impossible, leaves me speechless...





And now it's time for our favourite segment: Celebrity versus Runway!!

Would we EVER have guessed this was a runway look? Cutouts aside, this dress doesn't have anywhere near the raunch factor Ciara gives it.



THIS is how you steal a runway look my friends! The changes in the styling are fairly subtle but make a big difference. Both women look incredible (I kind of want this dress...) I would wear it either way.

"I don't know how to put this, but I'm kind of a big deal."

~~ Will Ferrell as Ron Burgundy in Anchorman

Tightpants spotting! Minus any tight pants. Note to self: Thursdays, noon, patio.

"Oooh! Somebody stop me!"

~~ Jim Carrey, The Mask

Since Buffy left all her makeup at home today, she is locked away in her office avoiding most human contact. So no visits with the real world regulars today, my friends.

That being said, this past weekend was host to a minor "red carpet" event with a big celebrity draw: the Teen Choice Awards. What timing for Mrs. Hemsworth to be away! Hunker down cuz this is going to be a long one...

Exhibit A: Kat Graham (I still don't know who she is...)




Check the neckline - another sad case of inappropriate attempted nude-ity! On the bright side, we can finally rest easy knowing what happened to the tail from Leona Lewis' horse friend.

And back to the nudity.... Yikes!




Oh hey, did you hear Kim Kardashian is getting married? (*groan*) From the waist up she totally looks like she just came from a run-through of her wedding hair and makeup. BTW, who is this makeup artist she has who can’t conceal her undereye bags with something that matches the rest of her face?? Fired!



Here she is with her sisters. I’m not really sure what to say about this mashup of looks… Clearly the younger K on the left is the prize pupil, mastering the arts of inappropriate cutouts, scary eye makeup and the death stare. The one on the right needs to shape up.

I can’t even touch Khloe the Harlequin cover model over on the left.



Speaking of models, Ummmm Tyra....Silk Spectre wants her wardrobe back. (Quick! Who would win this chick fight??)



Yellow appeared to be the colour of the night. Notice how nicely it complements the orange in the skin:




Now I'd like to pause for a moment of pretty.............



Ahhhh. Like a breath of fresh air isn't she?

I may take some heat on this one but I'm actually digging Avril's look (Although she desperately needs to go back to dark hair). Still with an edge but a little more grown up.



And finally….my most improved player for the evening. Well, it’s a tie. Here’s to Taylor Swift for finally doing something different, but not so drastic that it seems out of character. Not over the moon about the dress but it’s definitely less frock-y and kudos on the hair.





And points to Blake Lively for finally wearing an appropriate hemline and looking great doing it. Isn’t this much sexier? And thank goodness she’s blonde again!

"So let it be written, so let it be done"

~~ Yul Brenner, as Rameses in the Ten Commandments

Yes fan (I did want to say fans but who am I kidding), I have handed over the reigns to the Admin Diaires to Buffy -- often implicated...never duplicated.
Welcome to the blog Buffy.  Behold...the mantle of leadership.....

(courtesy of touregypt.net)
Which translates into this in our day and age....


Blog on Buffy...Blog on!

"I'm Buffy. I'm new."

~~ Sarah Michelle Gellar as Buffy Summers, Episode 1: Welcome to the Hellmouth

As Mrs. Hemsworth prepares for one - or possibly two! - weeks of summer vacation I prepare to take over this blog. Maybe this will inspire me to contribute to my actual work blog which hasn't been updated in 3 months (oopsie...). Anyway, now that I've got my feet wet - let the games begin!
