Sanuk Footwear Party

On Wednesday I was invited to view the Sanuk Footwear spring line at Bellacures in Beverly Hills.  It was a night that involved champagne, manis, pedis, a candy bar, and shoes.  Okay, count me in!  I became familiar with the Sanuk line when I was gifted a pair of shoes at the Blushington party I attended in February.  The brand was created by a Southern California native who uses innovative materials to create the line from...

Julia Roberts Is The Fairest One Of All

A few weeks ago, I kicked off my Monday with an interview with Julia Roberts.  I was coming off of my Oscars high and I thought, "Could this get any better?"

Should Celebrities Give Great Customer Service?

SAG-AFTRA Merger: Exclusive Interview with SAG President, Ken Howard

There is a lot of debate going on in the entertainment industry about the possible merger of the two main actors' unions in Hollywood:  Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of Radio and Television Artists.  The current status is up for vote and I recently turned in my ballot.  I have voted for a merger several times in the past because I felt like the strength of unions has weakened since the 1950's and 1960's.  When the other mergers did not pass, the unions started to compete for contracts ultimately hurting the...

Baby Bump Watch: Confirmed (Reese Witherspoon Edition)

Well, let's see we've speculated, denied, and now confirmed that Reese Witherspoon is pregnant.  Phew.  It's been a long first trimester for us all.  In fact, I even interviewed Reese and she certainly did not look pregnant, but those first twelve weeks are tricky and they are easily disguised by cleverly placed wardrobe. Now, don't expect Reese to make a big announcement since that's not her style, but let's watch her growing and...
