Britney Spears is Not Fat!

Photo: PictureGroup/Splash News

I am absolutely disgusted! Since the official news of Britney Spears and Demi Lovato joining X-Factor the media has been going nuts. Not nuts with excitement, but nuts with non-stop Britney bashing. Look, I will say up front that I am team Britney, and have been since I was 15 years old when I got to meet her during her first trip to Toronto. I also realize that many people are not. I realize that people seem to think her 2007 meltdown was just yesterday. But honestly, that is all besides the point. My reason for writing this blog post is to say how disgusted I am that the media is attacking her appearance and calling her fat. FAT! In what world is Britney Spears considered fat?!?! This one apparently. Some of the words used in many online reports? Dimpled, lumpy, even bruised and just fat. Others said she looked liked trailer trash. Honestly, I've seen her look a lot worse. The girl has come a very long way from the low point in her life. She's looking good and healthy these days. Gotta give the girl some credit here.

With terrible comments like these, it's no wonder girls have body image issues...and that is my biggest problem with this whole thing. This is the absolute worst message to send young girls. It's impossible to live up to this idea of absolute perfection. I'm sure we all have things that we don't like about ourselves, I sure do. I'm also pretty certain that some of these people behind these mean words don't have perfect bodies either. I'd love to see their "dimples" because I know they've got them! We are imperfect human beings, but we have to learn to be happy and accepting and not try to live up to what the media says is perfect.

Britney Spears is 30 years old and a mother of 2, she's not 17 anymore and I say she looks pretty damn good. Just my opinion.

The Fault In Our Stars

Looking for a really good read? A story that you will become completely immersed in? Read this book.

"The Fault In Our Stars" by John Green will make you laugh out loud on more than one occasion, it will make you bawl your eyes out and you will not want it to end! But, that was just my experience, give a read for yourself and then let me know how you felt about it.

'The Lucky One' Nicholas Sparks

Last week I had the honour of meeting one of my all time favourite authors, Nicholas Sparks. 

Nicholas Sparks had been on a press tour promoting his latest book to film adaptation, "The Lucky One" starring the handsome Zac Efron and beautiful Taylor Schilling when he made a stop in Toronto to meet some "lucky" fans (about 500 of them)! 

I read this book about 3 years ago, and it is definitely one of my faves! I highly recommend reading this book...and maybe all of his other ones while you're at it! ;) 

This was my third book signing since December, all put on by Indigo events. If you have ever thought that a book signing might be boring then you need to attend one of these events, it is anything but boring! There is always a DJ playing some tunes, and there are often giveaways as well. At this event they were giving away t-shirts (I got one), and lip gloss. There were Twitter contests, dance offs and a full on sing-a-long to One Direction for the younger girls in the crowd.

Nicholas Sparks was all smiles and just as friendly and gracious as you would expect him to be. He was nice enough to stick around and take some photos with some of us after the signing, good thing too, otherwise I wouldn't have had a photo for this blog!

"The Lucky One" hits theatres on April 20th. Check out the trailor below.

Everybody Needs to See BULLY!

This past Monday, I was lucky enough to be able to attend an advance screening of the documentary Bully at the TIFF Bell Lightbox in Toronto. I had been waiting to see this since I first heard about it and I was definitely not disappointed. 

I could not be happier that director Lee Hirsch decided to make a film about bullying. It's about time that people are now truly starting to pay attention and admit that we have a serious, serious problem. After all of the headlines we've inevitably read in the last couple of years, Bully could not have come at a better time. 

 

Now, I think the thing that shocked me the most was that in the United States the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) slapped this film with an R rating. In a discussion panel after the Canadian premiere Lee Hirsch made sure to point out the hypocrisy of it all. I hadn't thought about this, but they give PG and PG-13 ratings to many films that glorify and even "sexify" violence. Lee was absolutely right. 

Discussion Panel (iPhone photo from back row)

They of course didn't just accept this unfair R rating. Harvey Weinstein along with Alex Libby, one of the bullied boys featured in the film stood before the appeals board. In his statement, Alex told the board that they were basically saying that he couldn't see his own life! They lost by one vote. It's not a total loss though, they ended up with the film being unrated which is definitely better than R. Canada on the other hand gave Bully a PG rating in every province with the exception of Quebec who gave it a G. Go Canada! 

If you know me, then you know the subject of bullying really hits home with me. I've said this before and I'll say it again, I am so glad that I did not grow up in the digital age. The bullying I encountered while growing up was nothing compared to what's going on these days, but I will never ever forget the hurtful words and poor treatment. It didn't follow me home from school unless you're talking the odd prank phone call, but today there is no escaping it. Today you're bullied even when you're in what's supposed to be your safe place. 

Bully is such a powerful and moving film. Teachers need to see this, kids to see this, everybody needs to see this! With a generation of kids that are the least empathetic ever, now is the time. It's time to make a change. It's time to stand together against bullying. Do I think that bullying will ever go away completely? No. But I do truly believe that we can make a difference and save some young lives. 

A little word of advice for when you see this film? Bring kleenex.

Check out the trailer below:


Make sure to visit their Canadian website www.bullymovie.ca to demand it in your city and while you're at it, pledge to take a stand against bullying! 

You can catch Bully at the Varsity Cinemas in Toronto beginning Friday April 6th. 

*UPDATE: The MPAA has finally granted the film a PG-13 rating!*

Days of Our Lives Book Signing

This past Friday, Kristian Alfonso, Molly Burnett and Bryan Dattilo of Days of Our Lives fame made an appearance at Indigo Manulife Centre to sign copies of "Days of Our Lives 45 Years". 

I was one of the lucky fans who got a chance to meet them. What I love about book signings is the people that attend are all talking about how long they have been a fan. When I met Regis Philbin, everyone talked about how many years they had been watching him on TV, and it was no different for Days of Our Lives. I talked to one girl who had been watching her entire life, all 29 years. She listed off all of the 80s children's shows that I watched, as well as Days.

"Hope","Melanie" & "Lucas"

To me, this is how Whitney Houston should be remembered.

Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try

Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace

You, you may say
I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world

You, you may say
I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will live as one

2012 People's Choice Awards Recap

I like lighthearted award shows, and that's exactly what the People's Choice Awards are. It doesn't take itself too seriously. 

Things I liked from last night: 

• I think choosing Kaley Cuoco as the host was a great idea! She's funny, beaming with confidence and absolutely gorgeous! I liked the Big Bang Theory opening scene. 
• Neil Patrick Harris being part of the live opening; all ready to go with a song and dance number complete with a tearaway tux! Too bad Kaley had him dragged away by "security" lol! 
• The Bridesmaids acceptance speech! Breaking out into "Hold On" was awesome...as was thanking CVS Pharmacy for some reason? 
• Everything Betty White! I heart her so much. Can't believe she's 90 this week! Congrats to Hot in Cleveland for winning Fave Comedy on Cable. 
• Morgan Freeman accepting his Icon award. Short and sweet.
• Emma Stone being all cute and tongue tied accepting her 2 well deserved awards! But did they seriously have to give her the count down so quickly? 
• Nathan Fillion winning Fave TV Drama Actor! His speech was brilliant! Looking at the Twitter feeds, people were either happy he won or literally crying and cursing that Ian Somerhalder didn't win. I am also happy that Castle won Fave TV Crime Drama!
• Jane Lynch as the Seat Coordinator.
• Something not seen on TV; Miley Cyrus being sneaky and taking over the @peopleschoice Twitter with this tweet: "its miley! i just found a computer with this account open haha! =]]] im hacking PCA bout to watch my boo go on stage xx love yall"
• How I Met your Mother, Neil Patrick Harris & 2 Broke Girls all winning awards! 

Things that I didn't like so much: 

• Adam's Sandler's acceptance speech. Good effort, and I laughed a couple of times, BUT it went on way too long, and I don't think it was as deserved as others in his category of Fave Comedic Movie Actor. 
• Demi Lovato's performance was...horrendous. I do admire her for being a good role model for young girls and being brave enough to share her struggles. Just not a good performance last night. Faith Hill's wasn't all that spectacular either. 
• A lot of the banter between the presenters. Sharon O and Cuba Gooding Jr. being the worst.
• Revenge not winning Fave New TV Drama.
• Finally, not enough celebs were present at the show and not enough awards were given out during the live 2 hour broadcast.

A full list of winners can be found here on the People's Choice Awards site. 

Congrats to all of the winners! 
 

Walk Off the Earth's Cover of 'Somebody That I Used to Know' Goes Viral!

This right here is another example of the power of social media! 

Ever heard of the band "Walk Off the Earth"? I hadn't until this YouTube video of the Burlington Ontario band doing a cover of Gotye's song "Somebody That I Used to Know" went viral this past weekend. 

On Saturday Russell Crowe tweeted: "Check out Walk Off the Earth's cover of Somebody I used to know. Brilliant"...and now they have over 4.5 million views on YouTube! They have made news in North America, Germany, the UK and Australia and they were even featured on Good Morning America today! 

Check out the video below! It's pretty incredible! 

My Fave Viral Video of 2011

These twins are so freaking cute! This vid can always put a smile on my face! 

Regis Philbin: How I Got This Way

Just the other day, I made a dream of mine come true: I met the one and only Regis Philbin. He was in town promoting his new book, "How I Got This Way". I waited in line for hours (was 4th in line) and had some good conversations with other Regis fans. I guess it's not surprising that I was most definitely one of the youngest people there. He was so warm and gracious. I am so happy the experience was everything I had hoped it would be. In fact, it was more than I had hoped it would be! 

Go out and pick up a copy of "How I Got This Way" today!

Michael Stagliano: Find You

Photo courtesy of The Stirling Room 

Recently, I had the pleasure of meeting Bachelor Pad 2 hotties Michael Stagliano and Graham Bunn at The Stirling Room in Toronto. I didn't have long with them of course, but it was a lot of fun. 

The next day Michael did an Acoustic set at the Drake Underground, which I was sadly not able to attend. Lucky for me he posted a video on YouTube from the show!!! Here is one of his songs titled "Find You". Give it a look, its just beautiful! 

PEOPLE's Sexiest Man Alive is Bradley Cooper!

Heck yes! Bradley Cooper has been named this years "Sexiest Man Alive" by PEOPLE magazine!!! He just might be the only dude on the planet that I think is sexier with a little facial hair! 

Other Hollywood hunks making the list this year? Ryan Gosling, Liam Hemsworth, Chris Evans, Tim McGraw, Justin Theroux and many more! Check out all of the sexiness in this issue of PEOPLE, on newsstands now!

David French: Writing Home

Attention all Canadian Theatre lovers out there! 

Canada's National Arts Centre in association with Theatre Museum Canada is presenting a retrospective exhibit of one of Canada's most prominent Playwrights, my great uncle, David French (1939-2010). This exhibit is running now through November 6th along with the production of Salt Water Moon. If you would like tickets, you had better act fast because last time I checked it was almost entirely sold out! 

A little info about the exhibit as seen on the NAC website: "Focusing on his five semi-autobiographical plays about the fictional Mercer family of Newfoundland, the exhibit combines rare artifacts, images and text to examine the history of French’s darkly humorous slice-of-life dramas, and his far-reaching influence in the development of English Canadian theatre"  

If you can't make it all the way to Ottawa to check out the exhibit, you can check out an online version by clicking here.

From what I know about my great uncle, he really had no idea what an impact he had on Canadian Theatre, and just how respected and loved he was. I think he would absolutely love this! 

I'll be heading to Ottawa in a few weeks to check this out in person. I can't wait! 

Its Season Finale Time!

May Sweeps is here, so I've put together a list of when all your favorite TV shows say goodbye to us until the Fall. I'm a little behind as some finales have already aired, but there's tons more to come!
