2013 Tony Awards Nominations

I spent my morning at the Tony Awards nominations in New York. While I have covered the red carpet before, it is the first time I had the opportunity to attention the early morning announcements. Sutton Foster and Jesse Tyler Ferguson hosted the nominations and they were hilarious together. There were lots of interesting snubs from Bette Midler to Alan Cumming to Lilla Crawford, but there were lots of reasons to celebrate as well. Kinky Boots...

AfterBuzz TV DWTS, Week 6: The Twitter Controversy

Even at Disneyland, there is no escape from DWTS!I think this is our most hotly debated show of the season.  Team Zendaya thinks we hate Zendaya. If you have followed our shows over the last month and a half, you know that isn't true. I'm a big fan of the 16-year-old as a celeb and as great role model. I personally don't care how many Twitter followers she has and I don't think she is a ringer for ABC. I just want to see the girl dance! I think...

We are hoping to have them on later in the season.However, we still have the amazing Anna Trebunskaya with us this week and she choreographed two numbers while Stevie Wonder sang...

Own Firming Silk Concentrate

Last month, I was given the opportunity to try Own's Lifting Eye Cream. Now that I have had another four weeks to test drive the product, I have definitely noticed more hydration and less lines around my eyes.  With all the travel that I do, it's easy for my skin to dry out, so this has definitely helped.  This month, iFabbo and Own gave me a complimentary serum to try out: Own's Firming Silk Concentrate.  This product might be a personal...

Red Carpet Closet Archives: Reese Witherspoon Interview

Based on the news of Reese Witherspoon's arrest yesterday, I made a comment about the actress on Twitter that sparked a lot of you to search for our interview together.  This press junket took place in either late January or early February (It was released in mid-February.) for the release of her film This Means War. I interviewed her along with Chris Pine and Tom Hardy for iVillage. This is the intervi...

Media Mondays

Who's that crazy girl in the back on the Tower of Terror? It's a new week and I think we all need a fresh start after all of the tragedy last week.  A trip to Disneyland was in order just to lighten the mood a bit, but there was still work to do. Here are all of my media appearances from last week. AfterBuzz TV DWTS:  If you are looking for last week's show, click here for the video, photos, and more with Witney Carson.Tom Barnard...

AfterBuzz TV's DWTS, Week 5: Witney Carson

I personally had more fun on this show versus any other episode we have done so far. Anna and our awesome guest, Witney Carson, did a great job of giving us more inside information than we have ever seen. From learning about Anna's time spent with Zendaya to get her ready for the Tango to Aly's mindset after hearing about the tragic Boston events earlier in the day, Witney and Anna both delivered.The other thing that has been fun guessing is where...

Media Mondays...on a Tuesday

Just a small camera for shooting...I had plans to post this yesterday, but given the day's events...it just didn't matter. For those of you that don't know, I am from the Boston-area.  While I have adopted California as my home state, I often spent my Marathon Mondays in the city cheering on the runners as a kid.  Patriot's Day is only celebrated in Massachusetts and Maine honoring the beginning of the American Revolution.  It's a...

AfterBuzz TV DWTS: Victor Ortiz

I'm dramatically talking about Ingo and Kym's Viennese Waltz.Okay, what a week it was!  We started off the night with a bit of a disappointment that Sean Lowe and Peta Murgatroyd were tied up (again!) at another taping and they couldn't make it to our set. However, Victor Ortiz was in the house and he couldn't have been a better guest. We really appreciated the fact that he showed up because he came from a long day at the gym and rehearsal to...
