hello! i'm wondering how long jennifer lopez and marc anthony will be able to keep their supposedly rocky marriage alive? there's been so many rumors lately about the couple divorcing - it seems inevitable! perhaps they will actually publicly end things on valentine's day in NYC during mr. anthony's concert (i posted about that rumor not too long ago...) this week's national enquirer claims there was a big explosion between the two on new year's eve and now there's probably a bunch of stuff for the couple to figure out like money ($350 million!) and who will retain custody of their twins max & emme (i bet ms. lopez will keep the kids) i'm also curious to see who will move on romantically first - with jen's history - she'll probably find a new beau before marc does but girlfriend seriously needs to figure out her career first which has been kind of in the dumps lately - although i was a HUGE fan of her last album brave which turned out to be a bomb (and didn't get much promotion at all because she ended up getting pregnant) but it's such a guilty pleasure - please give it a listen if you haven't! (plus her acting career seems dead in the water) so far the new year has been all about people breaking up...we totally need a new steamy romance to balance all of the drama out! popbytes over & out for tonight from maui - xoxo (and just in case your curious here's more onmartha stewart turning her back on her pal from prison...)
good evening! below is the latest STAR magazine cover which is featuring sarah jessica parker front & center - claiming she's ready to move out and ditch matthew broderick! back in july ms. parker was featured in the magazine with the claim her hubby was cheating on her - i'm not really buying into all of this but the couple has always been so private - so who knows what's really going on! yet as of today we do know there is one thing happening for sure - a sequel to the sex and the city movie - which was bound to happen since the first one made a bunch of ca$h! at first i was totally against another SATC movie but i watched the first one on DVD a few weeks ago and i had a change of heart...of course i'm up for more NYC adventures with carrie, charlotte, samantha, and miranda - bring it on i say! as for ms. parker's personal life - we'll just have to keep an eye on her relationship - i think everything is just fine but only time will tell! popbytes over & out for now...xoxo (and what's up with miley cyrus' first kiss? i'd bet money she's not even a virgin anymore - if i had a boyfriend like hottie justin gaston - i would've hit that a long time ago!)
"The time has come when she realizes it just isn't worth it," a friend of the couple tells Star. "Sarah Jessica is determined to get her own place and bring down the curtain on her marriage." Adds another insider: "Sarah's not stupid. She knows exactly what's going on. For a while it was easier for her to stay than go through a harsh divorce. They're essentially living separate lives."
Now that the holidays are over, the actress is revisiting her exit strategy, which takes into careful consideration the couple's 6-year-old son, James Wilkie - just about the only thing holding the pair together. SOURCE
good evening! i swear i feel like i never want to go back to los angeles after spending time here in maui (except i would need to have all my pets sent here - i miss them so much but they're in good hands) tonight's sunset was absolutely gorgeous (there's two pics below) tomorrow i need to wake up super early to catch a whale watching tour (after getting my ass out of bed at like 5am - the whales better show their faces or i'm going to be super pissed!) below are some quick hot links - many thanks to everyone who has linked me while i'm on vacation - it seriously means a lot - i was so stressed about not being able to attend to popbytes properly but everything seems to be going ok! i really appreciate people tossing me links when i haven't been able to get to my pop nosh links like i normally do! if i missed anyone - i'm really sorry - it's not intentional at all - i will hit you back when things return to normal next monday! popbytes over & out for tonight - much love to all as always - xoxo
good morning boys & girls! last week i posted about rupaul's upcoming drag competition reality show drag race which premieres on february 2nd over on logo - right now i've got a brand new music video featuring clips from the show set to a new song from rupaul called covergirl (put the bass in your walk) which you can watch below - i totally love it! (see if you can spot tori spelling and her cute hubby dean mcdermott strutting their stuff on the runway) i'm off to the beach now - i'll check you guys later! popbytes over & out for now...xoxo
hey everyone! another super relaxing day down here in hawaii - tomorrow we're driving to hana which is supposed to be incredible - i can't wait! this afternoon i chilled out on the beach with a couple of very tasty strawberry daiquiris and henry miller's 1934 novel tropic of cancer which is one of my favorite books of all-time - lately i've been itching to read it again - it's a bit of an undertaking but well worth it - i highly recommend checking it out if you haven't read it already! anyways it sounds like things are still semi-slow in the gossip world (except for all the stuff about john travolta's son jett passing away - so sad) this week i will try to post as much as i can - i feel totally guilty for taking a small break from popbytes but i really needed to recharge myself (i have been at this over five years without a break...) so when i get back to los angeles next week - things will be back to normal - perhaps even better than before! popbytes over & out for tonight...xoxo
PS many thanks to popbytes' pals madcao & jay for sending me this article in today's new york times all about maui! last but not least - thanks my dear popbytes' reader marilyn who sent me an email earlier today - you totally rock!
hey hey! i had another fabulous day here in maui - i managed to go snorkeling off two beaches - the first one was just ok and i ended up cutting my foot (i'm dealing) the second beach over at kaanapali (recommended by my blogger buddy candy kirby) was awesome for snorkeling - just a few feet from the shore was this amazing reef teeming with all sorts of colorful fish - i never saw anything like it - i was truly amazed! yet being a nervous nelly i got a bit spooked when i realized i was kind of far out in deep water but i managed to do the backstroke back to shore! anyways i'm excited to bring back the latest national enquirer covers here on popbytes - sometimes their stories are a bit outlandish but more than a few times they've totally nailed stories on the head before anyone else had an inkling (like with nicole richie's pregnancy) this week it's all about celebrity diets - which don't seem to be working for the people featured on the cover (i'm not sure who is featured on the right - please be my guest and take a guess - i'm thinking maybe it's kelly lebrock?) there's also more on freakshow michael jackson who supposedly only has six months to live - i don't like calling him a freakshow but there's really no nice way to describe him these days - he's a total weirdo - it's quite sad - he used to be the reigning king of pop but certainly not anymore and he'll never be able to mount a comeback to the way we remember him - sad but true! popbytes over & out for now - xoxo (many thanks go out to david perel from the enquirer for always helping a blog out!)
hey everyone! i really wanted to get to proper pop nosh linkage today but i'm so beat again - i spent most of the day at makena beach here in maui - which was super great (thanks for the swell recommendation mom + dad) but some of the waves were a bit big for my taste so i went out a little further to avoid the crashes and i was beyond relaxed (there's a picture of me (shirtless and yes both my nipples and belly button are pierced) overlooking the cliffs below) i simply can't believe i waited almost 33 years to take my ass to hawaii! anyways below are a bunch of my favorite blogs (please forgive me if i missed anyone that should have been included...)
last but not least i feel so awful for john travolta and his wife kelly preston who lost their 16-year old sonjett today while vacationing down in the bahamas - it's all so very sad - losing a child must be the worst experience ever - i can't even imagine it - my condolences go out to them and their entire family - popbytes over & out for tonight - much love to all as always - xoxo
good morning from maui! yesterday was the longest day but i made it to hawaii safe & sound and i'm already way more relaxed than i was just the other day! i swear i think i could live here all of the time - it's so chill and it's totally gorgeous - i already went swimming (about an hour after i landed) and the water was so surprisingly warm for being the ocean - and i also managed to pick up a little color (yes mom, i brought tons of sunscreen) anyways right now i've got the cover for kelly clarkson's new single my life would suck without you which is in sharp contrast to images from her last album my december (the album wasn't a huge hit but i really liked it - i'm quite sure most fans of ms. clarkson did as well) i'm dying to hear some new material from her and it won't be long now - this single is bound to leak to the web soon (it's supposed to start getting radio play on january 19th) and then her 4th studio album (still untitled) will hit stores on march 17th! right now i'm heading off to pick up some snorkeling gear and hit the beach again - tonight i'll be doing my pop nosh links - even while on vacation - there's no break from blogging! popbytes over & out for now...xoxo
good morning & happy new year everyone! oh it's super early (like 4:30am) and i'm headed to the airport to catch my flight to maui - i can't believe i'm actually taking a vacation - it's long overdue! i will be posting here on popbytes but it might be on the lighter side (i will be back full-time on january 12th - four days before i turn 33 - yikes) of course i'm taking my trusty laptop with me - plus i'll be sure to take and post plenty of pictures! right i'll leave you in the hands of my pal DJ paul v. who selected a perfect mashup to kick the new year off with - i LOVE it! popbytes over & out for now...xoxo
†FROM DJ PAUL V. Happy 2009, everyone! Time sure flew during 2008, and it was a pretty interesting and diverse year for pop music - which meant very ripe mashups for the picking. And just for you, DJ Earworm has crafted another annual 'United States Of Pop' megamash (watch the video) that rounds up 25 of the biggest hits of last year. With a lush, orchestral feel via using Coldplay ('Viva La Vida') as its musical backbone, it includes vocals and parts from One Republic, Pink, Rihanna, Chris Brown, Madonna, Lil Wayne, Katy Perry, Alicia Keys, and many more. This is one hella smooth and fantastic blend!
