IT'S THE RETURN OF THE HOT LIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Spring is almost here!!!! And as wonderful as Christmas was, is, and always will be, i think quite enough time has gone by since my last hot list.
Unforch, i have been a busy bee and have had minimal time to gather my thoughts on the hottest things around these days. But since that is no excuse whatsoever, here is a list of the TOP TEN HOTTEST THINGS THIS WEEK!!!!
10. JET-SETTING.
"Jet-setting" takes number ten this week because i cannot think of a more fab way to celebrate how exciting life can truly be when you put your mind to it. This month, I decided to put my mind to hopping on a plane and going to Los Angeles for 48 hours. I decided that this was a good idea since 1. I deserved it, and 2. the ticket was on sale. There is nothing like hopping on a plane and going somewhere for 48 hours. Sometimes it's also fun if you buy a new outfit the day before you go, because you will not only look great, but you will also feel like a true jet-setter.
Here I am hangin' with Rebecca and Steph at the Whaler in Venice Beach. We all had new outfits, which made us feel like true jet-setters.
Here I am hangin' with Scott Evan at the Ritz. We overlooked the marina, and even tho that has nothing to do with planes, it most definitely made us feel like true jet-setters.
9. DAYLIGHT SAVINGS.
Daylight Savings makes the hot list at number 9 this week, because it's pretty much the best thing to ever happen to Spring. As if Spring weren't awesome enough, it also comes with early-evening skateboarding adventures and patio sunsets and all sorts of other things that come with more sunlight. I am so thankful to that British guy for inventing daylight savings. Way to go, British guy!
Daylight Savings equals more sun equals HOT.
8. ACROSS THE UNIVERSE.
For anyone who has not seen the movie "Across the Universe," it is time. This movie is loaded with hotness including music, Beatles references, and Jim Sturgess. It is truly a masterpiece, and I could watch it again and again. Thank you to everyone who made this movie exist!!!
Musical movies are hot.
7. PHOTO SHOOTS.
Ok, so.....duh. Of COURSE photo shoots are hot. But just when you think that photo shoots are reserved for famous people and Hollywood's elite....think again!!!! Photo shoots sit at number 7 this week, because they are something you can do anytime, anywhere, no matter how famous you are. All you need is a camera and someone to take pictures, and it's in the bag! Photo shoots are always super hot because not only do you get to pose, but you also get to look back at the pictures and remember how pretty you and your friends looked that night! Also, photo shoots require many photos, which means there's bound to be a good one in there somewhere!!! Here is a series of photos from my shoot with Meagan and MJ...
Even Dr. Ryan got in on the hotness action!!!!!
6. BIG BROTHER 9.
Big Brother is back in full Season 9 effect!!!!! With more surprises including a mystery house guest, a secret couple, and a visit from Evel Dick, Season 9 is shaping up to be just as hot as i had hoped. Natalie is crazy, Josh is ridiculous, and Sheila scares me....but i am just so happy to watch them battle it out each week!!! For you Comcast peeps, it's available On Demand. If not, iTunes is the way to go. BUENO!!!!!!
Here is a pic of Matt with crazy Natalie. I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!!!!!
5. MAKING VIDEOS.
Making videos is most possibly one of my favorite things to do in the entire world. It would have been at number one, but i just couldn't wait that long to write about it, so i have decided to put it at number 5 before I explode. I love this extracurricular activity, because all you need to do is think of any subject in the entire world, and then you can make it come to life!!! If you have access to a video camera and a Mac computer, you too can make the most amazing videos EVER!!!
Here is a recent video I made for Scott Evan. It was easy, because I had a video camera and also a Mac!!
4. ROCK BAND.
Well I have to say that I pretty much have never seen anything so amazing as Rock Band...the newest and hottest video game to consume all time and space. The great things about Rock Band are 1. You feel like a famous musician, 2. You can play music you've heard OF, but never actually HEARD before, 3. You can go on a world tour with your friends, even if they don't live in the same state, and 4. You can play the drums even tho you suck at them in real life. I love this game and I think every single home in the world should own one. The end.
This is Meagan playing her guitar. She is a really hot guitar player.
3. DAVID ARCHULETA.
I wish it were possible for me to describe my love and affection for this season's future American Idol winner, David Archuleta. The moment I first saw him sing, I fell deeply and madly in love with everything about him!! He is nice, popular, smart, funny, cool, humble, talented, and just overall hot. Since these are the main characteristics I look for in an American Idol, i think he will do just great in the competition!! Unforch, it is not my decision who wins, so everyone needs to watch for D-Arch and vote for him on Tuesdays!!!!
This is D-Arch. I love him with my whole entire heart.
2. CHAMPAGNE.
This week, I think I have decided that Champagne needs to come back from wherever it has been. The champagne comeback is the best thing I can think of to kick off Spring, because not only is it refreshing and bubbly, but it also comes in pink!!! Whether you are out at dinner or home in your pj's, champagne will make you feel very fancy. And since anything fancy is automatically a "hot list" contender, then i think champagne fits right in!!!!
Here we are sipping champagne in the kitchen. HOT!
Here we are posing with the Champagne. It was pink and also fancy!!! (same thing, duh.)
And the number one thing on this week's hot list???????
ENCHANTED!!!!!!!!!!
Just when we thought Disney couldn't get any better than it already was, they release Enchanted....aka the best Disney movie to hit the screen since the days of Aladdin and The Lion King!!!! This is the story of a princess who gets tossed from cartoon world into actual world by the evil stepmother of her husband to be. This movie is full of Disney magic and Disney songs and Disney references and all things wonderful. I cannot wait to buy this movie for my collection and watch it like 5 times in one week.
Enchanted is Disneyfied and perfect!!!!
So there it is!! I'll be back soon with more hotness.
'til then...as always....
Be nice. Be hot. The end.
xoxo!

Movies:
My movie shoutout of the week goes to none other than a seriously classical classic. what could be better than a bunch of boys with accents singing and dancing!? answer: nothing. "Newsies" is one of the best movies to love because the more you watch it, the more you want to sing in the streets. Singing in the streets is always a perf idea because 1. people look at you, and 2. it gives you something to do if you get bored while you are walking. i love Newsies more than anything!!!!
This is Christian Bale. He was the star of newsies. In real life, I think i actually love him.
Television:
There are so many shows to talk about, but the award for most favorite show of all this season def has to go to "America's Most Smartest Model." I truly love this show with my whole entire heart. The models compete in all sorts of competitions like science fairs and spelling bees, all while trying to look their hottest. Andre is most definitely my favorite model on the show. He loves Russia, hates everyone, and is kind of scary and funny all at the same time. Go to VH1 & tivo this show immediately, if not sooner. SOVIETTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is Andre. He is crazy and also soviet!!!!!!!
Books:
The Bible, Tale of Two Cities, US Weekly
Heroes:
Jesus, my family, my Ninja, and all my BFFs in cali!!! And also my new friends who are making Nashville worth the pain. You know who you are.....
