Hey, Yoga People. Can you explain to me what doing yoga 5 times a week will do for your body? Does it really make you that toned and fit? I like it, don't get me wrong, but I find it kind of hard to believe that all these celebs claim they only do yoga, and they have these ridiculous gym bodies. I'm more of a western-minded person when it comes to exercise, I guess, but I'm starting to get more curious about yoga, at least as a supplemental form of exercise. I'd be curious to hear from real people, rather than Google search.

@bananaballs: When I do it regularly (read: not during school), it really does help me get slightly more toned. But then, I only do it twice a week, and I don't do a hardcore routine, just vinyasa, so. I'm sure if you did it more than twice a week + a specific routine to tone or build muscle or whatever, it would have major results.

@bananaballs: It really depends on what type of yoga you practice. Some forms are centered around mindful breathing and gentle stretches, while others are very vigorous and challenging. I was a ballerina for years, and I find that yoga works my body in a very similar way as ballet did.

For example, a lot of the more advanced poses require a great deal of strength, flexibility and balance and to do them properly, you have to be in great shape. The one thing I will say about yoga, which I have found is a bit like running, is that it produces a wide variety of body shapes. What I mean by that is, if you look at a lot of yoga instructors, you'll notice that some are whippet-thin, others are ripped, and others are softer. So, it can make you very lean and cut, or it may just make you a healthier version of you.

Another thing is that yoga is supposed to be a lifestyle, not just a fitness regime. A lot of teachings in yoga center around making healthy life choices--which includes diet. So, it's kind of all a question of how seriously you dedicate yourself to the lifestyle, if that makes sense.

Nicole Richie was awesome on Chuck. I'd DVR her sitcom.

Poor Tom Petty. That story makes me sad. OTOH, it is kind of awesome that so many more people are OK with talking about the DV that happened in their homes now. That has really not been the case in the past.

A girlfriend of mine worked for a sports team in Europe. While the league certainly wasn't major, and the guys weren't making a ton of money, she could count the guys who didn't cheat on half a hand. She described it as culturally pervasive among the players, and even the coaching and equipment staff. Sad :(

Thank you, Dodai, for including quotes from my two biggest aging rocker crushes: Springsteen and Petty!

And now 'American Girl' is stuck in my head.

So is Alec Baldwin saying that what he does on 30 Rock isn't "acting"? Damn, between him and Tracy Morgan we might just have to start calling it a documentary.

Also, I am madly in love with Bruce Springsteen. And I'm 23.

When I was 14, my mom told me that if I ever needed the Pill I should come to her. Of course, I didn't have sex until 11 years later, because I was and am a giant dork. If only she'd known how little she had to worry about... #sarahpalin

Since I read in VF that the only thing that Sarah Palin does at home is lock herself up in her bedroom, wear PJs and watch wedding shows, I can't be surprised that she doesn't know what the rest of her family is up to.

Okay, the source of all this is Levi Whatshisname, but still. #sarahpalin

The summer I was sixteen, my mother and I had a fleeting conversation about kissing. She was shocked - shocked! - that I knew about French kissing. I didn't tell her that I was having sex.

Later that year when I told her I was pregnant, she was shocked again. But, credit to my ultra-Catholic mother (RIP), she was OK about it. Her words: You know that whatever you decide to do, I and your family will stand behind you. And they did. I was engulfed, and my child was celebrated.

I never knew what she felt in that moment, other than love for me. #sarahpalin

What really kills me - it really rips me up - is when people think I'm abrasive, inconsiderate or ungrateful because I don't go outside in a bikini and wave to the paparazzi. Come on!"

She might be genuinely abrasive, but after "Speak," I find her refreshing and can sympathize with what she says. If there's a reason I wouldn't want to be famous, it's the fact that there are entire industries devoted to the concept of an adversarial (trashy) press. The paps are dead center. Some people court it because they have nothing else to offer (Lamas family, perhaps? Even by the standards of guilty-pleasure/stupid-but-fun Reality TV, that show looks overscripted/mind-numbingly embarassing.)

If I was minding my own business, smoking a fatty with a friend on my stoop, or was running around Hollywood dressed like a regular human being--with zits, an unmade-up face, and all--when a pap jumped out, snapped a photo, and landed me on a Worst Dressed List (worst dressed, for wearing dowdy, errand-appropriate attire to run an errand), I bet I'd seem "abrasive" to after a while too.

I can sympathize with her, her insecurities (in an industry that, to some extent, depends on finding flaws and magnifying them) and defensiveness.

Unless you're a hypocrite ("family values" congressional dickweeds who preach it without living it...or hell, even if they do both/aren't technically hypocrites), a criminal or an asshole (abusive parent....even then, probably not my business)...I dislike the idea that a person is no longer human or deserving of privacy once they become entertainers.

If the paparazzi embody that idea... I suppose it depends on the photo and what it's used for. What about humanizing photos (how many adorable pictures are there of celebrities and their children, even on this site)? Are those circumstances off limits? They still represent a violation of privacy.

What about that photo of Isla Fisher doing a cart wheel for her daughter ("bulgina"--snort)? That solidified my love of her and the wish that she'd get some better roles, but she was probably a little pissed, and I'd be too. (She handled it with good humor--damn, I wish she got another "Wedding Crashers" worthy role. Better.)

For all my complaints, I seriously wonder whether I would be the sort of fuck-nut stalkerazzi who all but scaled celebs' walls (that IS crime, yes?) to snap topless/nude pics in their backyards if I knew I'd be getting $20,000 for the photo.

How can anyone get a real job after being a celebrity trash pap, anyway, unless they stay in the tabloid industry forever? I guess the line between pap/photographer for less-tabloidy magazines like "People" is fine enough that they could. #sarahpalin

I can't believe I'm defending that POS Michael Lohan, who, of course, DID NOT TAKE GOOD CARE OF MY PRETTY, PRETTY GIRL, but he could have been looking for dancers who look like Dina, and Lindsay does look like Dina. #sarahpalin
