After her failure to impress in Paris, Lindsay Lohan looked as if she might be joining the unemployed.

Critics have bashed her debut collection calling it an “embarrassment,” but the 23-year-old will still be keeping her position of artistic advisor for the house Emanuel Ungaro.

Good Morning America Says Goodbye to Adam Lambert

IHeartAlly — Tue, 24 Nov 2009 13:12:45 -0800

Adam Lambert may not be sorry for his American Music Awards performance, but he's paying a small price for it this week.

The singer had been scheduled to appear on ABC's Good Morning America tomorrow, but the show has canceled Lambert's performance, citing his lewd Sunday night spectacle in its statement:

“Given his controversial American Music Awards performance, we were concerned about airing a similar concert so early in the morning.”

Fans can still catch the American Idol runner-up before the sun rises tomorrow, though: CBS' Early Show is happy to have Lambert sing for its audience.

Week in Movies..."What Took Me So Long" Edition

IHeartAlly — Sun, 22 Nov 2009 10:47:30 -0800

Don't ask why it took forever to see these 3 films. Just know from now on i'll be seeing them in my home (I get more done here) Anyways I saw three very different films this week. First "Little Manhattan" with Cynthia Nixon and Bradley Whitfield. Then after 4 days oh not watching my other films I FINALLY got to "Bram Stoker's Dracula" and "Lars and the Real Girl" on Friday. Let's start with "Little Manhattan"

Synopsis: Set against the backdrop of the Big Apple, director Mark Levin's (Wimbledon) quirky tale of first love puts the spotlight on pint-sized passion as young urbanites Gabe (Josh Hutcherson) and Rosemary (Charlie Ray) explore their budding emotions. And there's one thing that makes them perfect for each other: They're both in the fifth grade. Cynthia Nixon and Bradley Whitford co-star in this winning comedy that proves bigger isn't necessarily better.

I saw this movie with my boyfriend. He really was engaged, and understood what Gabe was going through. Both him and I loved the NYC backdrop and felt it was perfect for such a movie. The narration by Gabe was insightful, funny and emotional. We both really enjoyed this film. Now I took a break because life got in the way, and on Friday saw "Bram Stoker's Dracula"

Synopsis: When Dracula (Gary Oldman) leaves the captive Jonathan Harker (Keanu Reeves) and Transylvania for London in search of Mina Harker (Winona Ryder) -- the spitting image of Dracula's long-dead wife, Elisabeta (also Winona Ryder) -- obsessed vampire hunter Dr. Van Helsing (Anthony Hopkins) sets out to end the madness. Francis Ford Coppola's resurrection of Bram Stoker's novel won three Academy Awards for its eye-popping makeup and production design.

Um...my boyfriend was right to tell me that this film was coo coo. Visually its a great film. The only actor in the damn thing I could respect was Gary Oldman. Winona and Keanu? really? so many better people at that time to use. Finally "Lars and the Real Girl"

Synopsis: When a delusional loner (Ryan Gosling) buys a life-size sex doll over the Internet, promptly falls in love with her and starts telling people that the doll is his girlfriend, his brother (Paul Schneider) and sister-in-law (Emily Mortimer) decide it's time to intervene. Patricia Clarkson co-stars in this offbeat feature film debut about love, loss and human relationships from directorCraig Gillespie.

This movie was up and down for me. It had moments where you become very engaged as too why he is delusional, and why Bianca is real too him. At times there is too much dialogue and leaves you bored. Still a great movie.

Next Up:

1. Hamlet 2

2. Drag Me to Hell

3. Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium
