The Morning Roundup...

Happy Friday!

I arrived at work bright and early (surprisingly) after attending an average party last night with some of the girlies. Total waste of an outfit. Why do I keep doing this to myself? I know I'm in Pittsburgh and the most exciting thing I could possibly be attending is more than likely something thrown by people not yet graduated from college who live as faux local "celebrities", yet I insist on putting something cute on then acting like I didn't know I was going to be way too fashionable. smh...

In other news, today at approximately 2:30pm I will be embarking upon a 6-hour journey to the Big Apple. Why, you ask?? Why not??? Someone said road trip, and I'm always down for one of those :) Besides, maybe I'll finally make it to a Friday night Santos party house shindig...

Anyhoo, would any morning be complete without me unloading some news from around the blogosphere on you?? I think not! Enjoy folks!

• James McAvoy smolders. Yes, I said it. Funny-shaped nose & all. And of course, he's married. Womp Womp. Well, we can at least learn cute little mundane, off-the-cuff facts about him like the ones in this interview. Go on, click, read, live it up (vicariously).
  
  
• And speaking of Mr. McAvoy, he'll be featured in the May issue of Empire Magazine in one of a series of shots by Steven Spielberg. For the magazine’s 20th Anniversary Edition, Spielberg has guest-edited it with exclusive interviews and movie-inspired pics that are absolutely fabulous. Especially love how grown up the Harry Potter cast looks.
  
  
• Moving on... did you know that Aston Martin is looking to possibly enter Formula One racing?? The sexiness of that brilliant car is reason alone to cause me to watch those races...
  
  
• Did you watch the Making the Band 4 reunion special last night on MTV? You can prowl the innanets for details if you really even care. Biggest "shocker" of the night: Aubrey O'Day is getting her own reality show & Diddy is going to soon start the search for Danity Kane 2.0. sigh... I mean, seriously? Even a simple child could have guessed that the cookie was gonna crumble this way. Diddy isn't even trying to hide the fact that all he cares about is publicity, popularity and ratings. He hawked his "No BitchAzzness" tees, promoted his Twitter page, chortled about how Making the Band was one of the highest rated shows, and told Aubrey she needs to let him get in on her upcoming reality show. Diddy doesn't care about band people. The End.
  
  
• Jessica Lange and Drew Barrymore are supposedly going to be going up against each other for the Best Actress Emmy award because Lange refuses to step down and go for Best Supporting Actress instead. Well if this isn't art imitating life I don't know what is. Why won't Big Edie let Little Edie be great???
  
  
• Someone (specifically, Mayday) over at Trendmill is not drinking the Lady Gaga kool-aid. Gaga, they say, is no pop-art fashion icon. What do you think?
  
  
• In Tween news, they say that Miley Cyrus is jonesing for her former Jonas. Personally, the ethical side of me wants her to break up with that underwear model guy anyway because he is 20 and she is a 16-yr old child star and it sort of grosses me out.
  
  
• And last, but certainly not least, the Matthew Williamson for H&M line hit stores today for the masses to raid it. You like?
