day 52

is it really all i ever wanted?

with just about 10 days until her fourth album's first single, "my life would suck without you," drops, kelly clarkson has released the new cover of said disc, slated for release march 17th.  by the looks of the candy colored artwork, it looks like clarkson and her team are really pushing the star back to her pop roots. it's always good to see people returning to the things that made them famous (like britney recently did).  clarkson's last album was, to say the lease, a bit of a dissapointment. my december was all focused on one theme - being unable to recover from a breakup - and just was unlistenable. hopefully, all i ever wanted returns to the glory of breakaway and gets clarkson back on the radio.  all artists are allowed to have their issues, but two failed albums back-to-back would be sure to put the nail in the america idol champ's career coffin.  we'll just have to see if this album's title lives up to its title in clarkson's mind.

someone's sure to be fired at the globes

the people running the golden globes' website are probably kicking themselves tonight.  while the show doesn't happen until sunday, one of the night's biggest award's winner was accidentally revealed today.  what was probably just a check-gone-wrong to see if a graphic on the site worked, a "winner's star" was placed next to anne hathaway's name under the "best actress" category today for her work in the indie rachel getting married.  while the star has since been removed, and the globes people aren't releasing any statements, the damage is done. congrats to anne, but what's the point for other nominees - like angelina jolie, meryl streep, and kate winslet - to show up? maybe those stars will be kept in the dark and not be aware that they won't be picking up the newly redesigned statuette? 

lindsay lohan, hypocrite. 

lindsay lohan, everyone's favorite former redheaded-bicurious-sometimes actress, just made a big ass out of herself in the latest issue of interview magazine.  when asked about her life as a celebrity, lindsay says she only ever wanted to be a movie star, not a "celebrity" of today's times, who is only out there to promote themselves and not their work.  what is lindsay promoting you ask? absolutely nothing. lindsay's latest project (labor pains) isn't set to be released until the spring or summer and all she's been doing lately is hosting parties at clubs.  i don't know about you, but it seems like lindsay isn't living up to the movie stars of yore she so admires.  what's even more interesting is that, when she tries to name movies she admires, she only name drops "hitchcock films." in general, hitchock's movies aren't really known for their actors as much as their plot lines.  hopefully lohan sees the problem in all this shameless self promotion versus what she's actually saying and takes some time away from the spotlight.
