hey y'all! oh it was a total happy day for video gamers everywhere (myself included) finallygrand theft auto 4 was released for the xbox 360 & ps3 and is receiving rave reviews (there's a great article over on slate.com called it's not just about killing hookers anymore - thanks aaron) unfortunately i missed out on the first three games so i'm extra excited to jump into exploring 'liberty city' (based on NYC) although i shouldn't waste my time playing video games i simply cannot help myself - i grew up playing games and oh my gosh they've come so far it's fucking insane - i so wish tonight was friday because right now i've got other things to deal with - ugh! i did manage to play a few minutes earlier and i was blown away (this is so NOT a game for kids) GTA4 going to keep me busy for hours on end - the attention to detail is stunning - even fashion maven karl lagerfeld appears in the game as a DJ at a club! there's some incredible artwork posted below (from gta4.net) i can't wait to sink my teeth into the game (plus i'll be playing online with my brother david (turning 24 tomorrow) who lives over in boston) popbytes over & out for now...xxoo
what does the american dream mean today? for niko bellic, fresh off the boat from europe, it is the hope he can escape his past. for his cousin, roman, it is the vision that together they can find fortune in liberty city, gateway to the land of opportunity. as they slip into debt and are dragged into a criminal underworld by a series of shysters, thieves and sociopaths, they discover that the reality is very different from the dream in a city that worships money and status, and is heaven for those who have them and a living nightmare for those who don't...
good morning everyone! here's something new for dog lovers to spoil their furry friends with - fancy custom made dog houses! designers alan mowrer & michelle pollak teamed up to create la petite maison - a company specializing in pooch palaces but they don't come cheap - houses start at $6,000 and could run all the way up to $50k! below is model/actress rachel hunter sitting outside her fancy dog house along w/ her two best friends! people are totally willing to do anything to pamper their pets so it's just a matter of coming up with an idea to get pet owners to pony up and plunk down some cold hard cash! popbytes over & out for now...xxoo!
good evening! i'm assuming for most girls having their period just once a year probably doesn't sound bad at all! i remember my dear friend sarah always getting the worst cramps imaginable - poor thing! this new pill named annuale (for ladies on the go!) that was featured last night (with a guest appearance from tina fey) on saturday night live could almost be the perfect solution for my pal sarah...just watch below! popbytes over & out for now...xxoo!
good evening! is everyone having a kick-ass weekend so far?!? i came across these pictures from a recent party at the brooklyn museum (in conjunction w/ louis vuitton) honoring japanese pop artist takashi murakami (i'm mega bummed i missed his show in los angeles - shame on me) who was with chiho aoshima another japanese artist part of his collective known as kaikai kiki who was wearing a thin scarf/veil around the lower portion of her face - which got me thinking this could be a great celebrity trend for people who need to shut their traps like paris hilton, dina lohan, and especially nasty ass grease ball brandon 'firecrotch' davis (who is back in the news with his racist/homophobic comments) i took a few minutes out of my day to see what they might look like with the mouth scarf! there's also a bunch of pictures from the red carpet featuring some of the attendees like kristin davis, marc jacobs, eva herzigova, tinsley mortimer, anna wintour, linda evangelista, and selita ebanks! popbytes over & out for now...xxoo!
who else watched saturday night live last night? it wasn't the best episode ever but the one part that had me seriously cracking up (besides the 'weekly update' bit) was the latest 'digital short' (which is usually funny) featuring host jonah hill telling cast member andy samberg he was dating andy's dad ben samberg - at first i couldn't tell where the skit was headed but then i just started laughing (the tongue action is hilarious) plus andy is so damn adorable - gosh i love him! as for musical guest ms. mariah carey - i think she was a wee bit rusty last night - girlfriend needs to practice her new track touch my body live a few more times...the lyrics go by so fast and i thought she was going to mess it all up but mariah managed to get through it! ms. carey also debuted a new song migrate featuring a guest appearance by rapper t-pain - i'd have to hear the track a couple of more times before i pass judgment - however mimi did look superb - she has totally slimmed down - her body was bangin' (she'll never be the prettiest girl in the room but she works the cards dealt to her plus i'm sure she has gone under the knife once or twice...) popbytes over & out for tonight...xxoo!
good morning and happy friday! last night my pal jordy sent me over this hilarious clip from funny lady chelsea handler's late night talk show chelsea lately which airs on E! (speaking of E! last night i went to the dentist and was forced to watch like over an hour of keeping up with the kardashians while waiting in the dentist chair but there was no sound...i had to read what they were saying via closed captioning - ugh!) ms. handler talks about how the network wants her to attend a sexual harassment class because of how she treats her staff...just watch the clip - she's so damn funny! popbytes over & out for now...xxoo!
hey everybody! oh my word - i can't believe i'm still awake - after live blogging the oscars for almost six hours earlier today - i was like a zombie but i couldn't turn the oscar coverage off - including the special episode of jimmy kimmel's late night show - where he unveiled a video response to his girlfriend sarah silverman's video where she admitted to screwingmatt damon - now jimmy comes clean about screwing around with matt's BFF ben affleck - i like her song better but damn jimmy kicked her ass with the number of guest celebrity appearances including such people as brad pitt, cameron diaz, and harrison ford - just to name a few! you must watch the star filled totally hilarious clip below (jimmy & ben's video starts about two minutes in) i plan on sleeping really good tonight - i'm beat! popbytes over & out for tonight...xxoo!
before i go to bed - i just heard about this stunt pulled by two australian morning talk show personalities while in the states covering the oscars - kyle & jackie o. made a late night run this past monday evening to burger king and a donut shop in a black escalade with their show's producer georgie in the back under a blanket pretending to be troubled pop star britney spears (complete with a pink wig) and a bunch of paparazzi fell for the trickery - following them for almost three hours! even the police got involved by pulling over the paps along with everyone else on the sunset strip to let ms. spears through! even some britney fansites ran some of the footage (posted below) thinking it was real but alas it was all a clever ozzie prank - it certainly didn't take much at all to fool the photographers...or the cops! popbytes over & out - xxoo!
good evening! i just got back from having some dental work - so i'm slightly out of it - but i'm glad my teeth are doing better (all my silver fillings need to be replaced - not good times) so tonight i'm taking it easy as the novocaine is starting to wear off but i wanted to post this incredible video i heard about last night on nightline - it's the latest stunt from improv everywhere - this time 207 people all froze in their place at the same exact moment in NYC's grand central station - you have to watch the video if you haven't already seen it - it has been flying all over the web and now has almost 4 million views on youtube since it was added on january 31st! popbytes over & out for tonight...xxoo!
