Happy Anniversary Odoms!

Well who would have thunk!?
That's right, it's been a year since Khloe Kardashian said "I Do" to her Laker hubby Lamar Odom. Let's be honest, nobody thought this marriage would last more than a couple months (at the most) and here we are toasting one full year of marriage to these two crazy kids. So that brings the total time they've known each other to one year and one month. Wowzers! And she wasn't even preggers like everyone speculated!

I think we all owe the Odom's one big apology.

We're sorry for doubting you Khlomar. Congrats on the big One Year!

Greys Next Top Modern Family in the Cougar Town Community, 90210

Some of my favorite TV shows premiered this week and so far I have been pretty pleased! I do have to warn you that I still have a lot to watch though, especially the new ones, and I'm sure they can't all be great!

Caution: SPOILERS AHEAD!

Greys Anatomy: All the doctors are back in action, well almost, after last season's crazy intense season finale. I was a little nervous on how they would follow up such an incredible ending but they did a great job to set up tons of story lines in the season premiere. I'm still in shock that Christina married Owen in such a non-dramatic way! It was almost as if you would miss it if you weren't paying close enough attention! Overall I'm happy though, especially seeing as there is a new McShrink on the show, James Tupper (who may turn out to be more than just a shrink for somebody whose name starts with T and ends with Eddy). GA is in the perfect starting place.

America's Next Top Model: Honestly I have not watched this show in a couple seasons because I kind of got bored with Tyra's craziness and the winners not really doing anything after the show. However, after reading a review for Season 3,936 (I think that's right...) I was intrigued seeing as ANTM was stepping up their game. This season's prize includes a contract with IMG Models, one of the top international modeling management companies in the world; a fashion spread in Vogue Italia and an additional spread and cover of Beauty in Vogue; and a $100,000 contract with CoverGirl Cosmetics. The first episode's challenge was a Diane von Furstenberg runway show...I mean come on. Fabulous. There's a couple girls that I have picked out but for the most part I'm not totally thrilled about anyone in particular. Will be a fun season to see all the designers they feature but I'm hoping the girls will start to step it up soon!

Modern Family: If you follow TPAMP you know that ModFam became my new favorite show on television last season. And that is saying a lot seeing as I'm a total TV junkie (can I put that on a resume!?). Hallelujah, the season premiere did not disappoint! I was laughing out loud...alone...in my dorm room...within the first three minutes. Phil is back and awkward as ever and Gloria was hilarious trying to convince us she was not a typical Colombian mom. Can't wait for Season 2, it's going to be just as good, if not even better, than Season 1.

Cougar Town: Love. This. Show. Courteney Cox is just so quirky and clingy that it's amazing. Jen Aniston popped up on the season premiere which was pure awesomeness and she was pretty hilarious as Jules' (Cox) hippie therapist. Especially after Easy A, I'm still loving Dan Byrd as Jules' son Travis. His strangely open relationship with his parent's friends Busy Phillips and Christa Miller is so unorthodox yet gets me giggling almost every episode. Can't wait to laugh some more with the CT gang this season.

Community: Betty White people, Betty White. What a great way to start Season 2. There wasn't a ton of laugh out loud moments but it was definitely nice to be back with the study group. Troy's twittering about Pierce's awkward sayings were pretty funny but I have to hand it to Cheng for the funny award of the episode. I am so excited to see him more involved this season! The last scene of Episode 1 killed me; the guy is definitely hilarious. Props to Betty White for being great (as usual) and rapping with Ahbed and Troy in the extra scene!

90210: Drama, drama, drama! And that's exactly why I love it! Seems like so much happened in the last couple of episodes last season that I was afraid I was going to be a little lost in the premiere but they did a good job of tying up a few loose ends right away. They definitely left a few open of course with a couple new characters and a possible creepy storyline with Mr. Cannon. Naomi is back in action with her trust fund officially handed to her on her 18th birthday but is super messed up from last season's mishap with Mr. C. Annie and Liam? Or Annie and new boy? But Liam and new boy!? We shall see! Ivy and Dixon are bringin' the drama with Ivy's childhood friend from Australia visiting (cue Ivy's inappropriate hippie mom). Adriana, never to be outdone in the drama department, has a life changing moment (again) and has to figure out how to deal with it without feeling guilty. Last but not least, Teddy and Silver start off strong, but of course no relationship is ever perfect for more than half an episode and we see it go downhill pretty fast.

Hope to have some new shows to report on coming up next!

Friday Wrap Up/TV Premiere Week

Yes. I am aware that I didn't fulfill my promise to you. I pretty much stunk on the blogging front this week. But I want you to know that I legitimately sat down to write posts at least three different times this week. No excuses, I know. But do I get a semi-free pass seeing as classes started this week!? Yes? No? Oh well, can't go back now. So without further adieu, here is your highly anticipated Friday Wrap Up!

1. Lindsay Lohan is going back to jail. Wait, no. Wait, yes. Whatever. She'll eventually end up back in jail seeing as she failed two drug tests while on probation. Good try LiLo.

2. Ashton Kutcher and cougar wife Demi Moore fought off marriage trouble rumors all week. Good thing Demi knows how to post awkward bathing suit pics on Twitter, that should help the situation.

3. Kim Kardashian broke up with quarterback boyfriend Miles Austin. Well there goes the Cowboys' chance at a Super Bowl win!

4. Elizabeth Moss and SNL hubby Fred Armisen officially filed for divorce after 8 months of marriage. I bet his girlfriend, fellow SNLer Abby Elliot, is happy.

5. Kate Winslet has a hott male model boyfriend. Seriously people, he's gorgeous!

6. Kings of Leon singer Caleb Followill is engaged. Happy he found Somebody...get it?!

7. Paris Hilton was awarded a year of probation instead of jail time. I wonder what a socialite does while on probation...she should ask Lindsay.

8. Both Katy Perry and Nicole Richie had their Bachelorette parties. Weddings soon! That makes me so excited!!

9. Katy Perry (two top 10 mentions, you go girl!) taped a cameo for Sesame Street which was quickly vetoed by outraged parents. Apparently she was too scandalous in her lime green silky bustier. Katy Perry!? No way.

10. The full panel of American Idol judges was announced on Wednesday: Randy Jackson, Jennifer Lopez, and...drum roll...Steven Tyler. Should be an interesting season...


How were the new fall shows this week everyone!? Tell me your favorites, guilty pleasures, and ones you will never tune in to again. I have plenty to catch up on this weekend so I'll be blogging as I form my own opinions. Hopefully there will be a few treasures in there.

Definitely more posts will take place next week seeing as homework will enter the picture...which leads to procrastination...which leads to blogging (sorry Mom, it's just a fact).

Happy weekend everyone! Enjoy the lovely LA sunshine if you're lucky enough to live in this gorgeous city :)

A Sincere Apology

Dear TPAMP Followers,

You're right, I totally deserve to be yelled at. I let you down. If you're wandering around crying, feeling completely disconnected from the entertainment world, I am so sorry. Life gets insane, even for a 19 year old. While I was away visiting the White House and working up a sweat at preseason training camp in the middle of nowhere, life went on. Especially in the celeb world. So this week, instead of a Friday Wrap Up...or mid-week posts...you are getting a very special Saturday Wrap Up! Exciting right!? I promise next week will be better, but let's not waste anymore of this week...


1. Lindsay Lohan failed her drug test and faces more jail time. But don't worry, she said she's "prepared to face the consequences". Phew!

2. Paris Hilton is taking a plea deal for her gum/cocaine mishap to avoid a bad rap. Good thing it wasn't her purse, that could have gotten messy!

3. Russel Brand had a little run-in with the paparazzi at LAX on Friday after they tried to stick a lens up fiance Katy Perry's dress. Who said chivalry was dead!?

4. Oprah gave her entire audience a trip to Australia, chartering a plane piloted by none other than John Travolta (Next time Jake Pavelka...).

5. Jennifer Lopez was officially announced as one of the new American Idol judges. With a $12 million, one year contract, I doubt she's still Jenny from the block...

6. Lady Gaga decided to wear a raw meat dress to the VMA's this year. Does that surprise anyone!?

7. Joaquin Phoenix's documentary wasn't actually real. So wait, does that mean I have to delete my digital countdown to his hip-hop album!?

8. Easy A starring Emma Stone got great reviews, even a push from Chelsea Handler! This isn't huge news I'm just really excited to see it :)

9. Scott Disick (Kourtney Kardashian's baby daddy) is designing his own clothing line. Douche bag & Co?

10. Jamie Oliver and his wife welcomed their fourth child, Buddy Bear Maurice Oliver. He joins siblings Poppy Honey Rosie, Daisy Boo Pamela, and Petal Blossom Rainbow. At least they won't have to endure childhood teasing...oh wait.


Promise to step up my game this upcoming week folks. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

Friday Wrap Up

It feels as if this was the last official week of summer! (Cue "boo" sounds...)
In case you were spending every last minute at the beach this week, here's the TPAMP Friday Wrap Up!

1. Tonight is the amazing event Stand Up to Cancer hosted by my girl crush Cat Deeley. Everybody who is anybody is there giving back, answering phones, and raising money for this great cause. (visit www.standup2cancer.org to donate)

2. 40-Year-Old Virgin Actor Shelley Malil told the court that he stabbed his girlfriend by mistake...20 times.

3. Halle Berry has a new boy toy, her Dark Tide costar Olivier Martinez. Goodbye cougar status :(

4. Tom Brady was in a car crash but still managed to make it to football practice on time. Committed.

5. Danielle Staub is leaving the Real Housewives of New Jersey. Someone pass the tissues.

6. Spencer Pratt officially acknowledged his issues...kind of. He did apologize to Heidi though, it's a start!

7. Mike Tyson and his wife are expecting their second baby! No doubt it will be a knock-out...get it, knock-out!?

8. Niecy Nash became engaged to Jay Tucker. Guess they don't need to sign up for dance lessons!

9. A security guard is accusing Britney Spears of sexual harassment. Apparently he saw her Toxic video...

10. Despite this photo's tease, Kat Von D is not pregnant with Jesse James' baby. Can you imagine, it would come out with full sleeves!


So that's that! Have a great weekend everyone! If you don't have plans, get out to the Rose Bowl to support Bruin Football!

Happy 9.02.10!

It is only right that a celebrity blog should have an entire post dedicated to the fine actors and actresses of Beverly Hills 90210 on 9.02.10. Here's the thing. None of them are really doing much these days! And to be honest, as a 19 year old, I really enjoy the new 90210 on the CW much more! So as most of you (at least in West Bev) are celebrating Kelly, Steve, David, Donna, Brandon, Dylan, Valerie and the rest of the gang (whew!)...I will be celebrating Annie, Dixon, Naomi, Navid, Silver, Adrianna, and Liam.


Happy 9.02.10 day cool kids.
