Gleeking out!

I can't wait for all my shows to come back this fall, especially GLEE!! This video is one of my favorite performances by Finn and Rachel.


2010 Emmys

The 2010 Emmys aired this Sunday and of course I watched everything from the red carpet on E! to the red carpet on NBC and to the very last "Thank you and Goodnight!" Jimmy Fallon did an awesome job of hosting this year. I expected him to be funny, crazy and entertaining and he sure did deliver.

I absolutely loved the opening with the cast of Glee and surprise friends- Joel McHale (Community and The Soup), Jorge Garcia (Lost), some chick from vampire diaries, Betty White, and the delicious Jon Hamm (Mad Men). Overall the show was different and cool. Of course it had its slow moments, but it was better than most have been in the past.



Here are a few of my favorite Emmy Styles:
Tina Fey can do no wrong. This gown is so classy.

Newly single Elisabeth Moss is making her ex-hubby regret his life in this amazing dress!


Heather Morris really caught my attention in this dress.
Usually I don't love all glitter but this was done so right!

Jon Hamm is hotter than Don Draper.
It's probably the hair that's doing it for me.

I don't like when celebrities wear one color making them a
blob of brownish blonde hair, makeup, and dress- but Claire Danes pulled this one off perfectly.


My favorite of the evening! Lea Michele is adorable already
so when she rocked this navy Oscar de la Renta dress heads were turning!

At first I was unsure about Kim Kardashian's dress.
My mom hated it--she thought she should have showed off her curves more, haha.
But honestly I think it was classy and perfect for the night. She looked like Cleopatra!

The end!

New Beats!



Thank you Sweet Nothings for giving me a first listen to this song! It's such a sweet song and very addictive.

Day 11 - A song from your favorite band

A song from my favorite band: "Be Somebody" -Kings of Leon



Kings of Leon is definitely a band I love--not sure about favorite band ever, but definitely a favorite. "Be Somebody" is such a great song. It makes me want to do just that "be somebody." I use this song when I need to feel motivated. Awesome lyrics, beat, and the guys are definitely lookers.

Enjoy!

Concert Review!



Hello all! So as I clearly made it known earlier that I was attending the Something Corporate concert last Friday and it well, it was magical! I went with a good friend of mine Sarah, who I hadn't spent quality time with in a while so it was nice to catch up! We were beyond excited to start up the celebrating of our youth again with delicious four dollar margaritas at Mother Burger, however four margs later and we were running kinda late to Roseland for the show. We get there and the line is wrapped around the building--twice. FML. No worries, my slightly intoxicated self somehow got us to the front of the line and we were in NO time. Cheers!

Once inside the Roseland, Sarah waited for a friend in the lobby while I knew I had to get in the pit or we were going to see miniature Andrew and friends and I did NOT wait 24 years to see one of my high school dreams get shit on by tweens! Soo as I made my way toward the stage, I made a few friends along the way. They we're over ecstatic fans who squealed over the idea that their beloved Andrew would be feet away. Little did they know that I met him, twice. ;) After befriending these little ones, I decided to ask their age. Their response--17, 18, and 20. WTF IS MY LIFE. I felt like a granny up there, but couldnt help but also think, how the F did these kids know Something Corporate. They we're popular when I was 17. Sick.

Anyway, the concert eventually started--with Sarah and new friend Seth by my side-- and it was a blast. No opener and 1.5 hours of non-stop punk rock goodness. They played a few of my faves--She Paints Me Blue, Cavanaugh Park and the heartbreaker- Konstantine. Andrew sounded wonderful and rocked out on the piano as always. Sarah and I were really hoping for them to sing "Walking By" but I guess one ballad-esque song was enough (especially since Konstantine is 9mins long!)

Overall I the concert left me feeling 17 again. I recalled all the moments I had listening to SOCO in high school and crying over some boy drama or something of the like. Regardless, it was awesome. Now I await seeing Jimmy Eat World in September with my sis! Yet another high school dream come true!

I really needed to read this today.
