Isn't Taylor Momsen 15 or something? If I left the house at 15 with that much cleavage, my mother would have grounded me and condemned me to a weekend of household chores.
@Tchotchke: I was catching up on GG last night, and there is an episode where she is sick and has no make-up, plus the extra deathly pallor makeup, and I couldn't stop thinking about how pretty she looked in spite of it because I am used to seeing her face CAKED with makeup. Why cover up fresh, dewy, 15 yo skin with pounds of the stuff?
@Spike49: I mean, she is probably well-adjusted, smart and probably a sweet girl. There's something to be said, however, for not dressing like a tart. At 22, I feel like my 50 year old mother for saying that, though.
These people will just not stop until I surrender and love them, will they? Kristen Stewart, I wanted to hate you, but you keep awesoming all over. And you have Dakota Fanning, who is a platter of adorable, so much so that I unmuted Jay Leno's insipid gabfest to watch her interview. And now, the soundtrack? Have you heard it? I really resent how much it rocks. Stupid New Moon movie. Stop chipping away at my anti-Twilight resolve.
@morninggloria: I freaking agree. I went into the whole Twilight fandom yearning for hate. YEARNING you hear? And now? Every time I see images of Kristen Stewart I gush with love and adoration. And for Dakota Fanning, who I love more for this movie (who fits the role of Jane to a T, if you wanted to know). It's wrong, and I feel dirty. I need a good Harry Potter bath, now.
@morninggloria: I was really pissed that the first movie featured one of my favorite Radiohead songs (although, strangely, it didn't wind up on the official soundtrack). Dammit, Twilight, do not ruin "15 Step"! (Thankfully, it didn't.)
@morninggloria: I watched Jay Leno, too, and although I felt I was betraying myself and everything humane in the world, I kinda had to watch Dakota Fanning. Plus, I heard that Leno's ratings were so bad that he's dragging Conan down with him, so I ultimately went through that for Conan.
And wtf? The soundtrack has St. Vincent & Bon Iver. A huge leap from the last one with (cringe) The Fray.
@morninggloria: Yeah, it burns me that a generation of tweens will grow up thinking of Clair de Lune as "that song from Twilight." Of course an older generation probably associates certain classical pieces with Bugs Bunny cartoons, so whaddayagonnado?
@morninggloria: SO with you, the Twi-boys leave me cold but Dakota and Kristen are both girl-crush material. It's the brainz I'm pretty sure. Kristen, I promise to never give 2 shits about your relationship with Mr. Sparkle. Let's be besties.
@morninggloria: stay strong in your resolve! Don't succumb! I am still bitter with the entire franchise because it forced the move of the Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince premiere. I refuse to be swayed. Even though HPATHBP sucked ass.
@morninggloria: I have an increasingly growing girl-crush on Kristen Stewart, I have pictures of Robert Pattinson all over my fridge, and I am seeing this movie ASAP. I will be so glad when all the hoopla is over because I am slowly turning into a TwiHard (the shame!).
I want Kristen Stewart's wardrobe from this publicity tour.
I love Jessica Szohr's makeup. Very flattering and cool.
That is the best and most comfortable I have ever seen Kristen Stewart look. She's finally matching the outfit to the hair in a way that doesn't make her look like vagrant.
Aren't Lydia Hearst and Fabiola Beracasa like step-cousins or something? (I think Fabiola's mom was married to Lydia's grandfather, but I could be wrong). It kind of makes your comment funnier, IMO.
@bluebears: That is hilarious! I can't sit through an entire episode of that show, but I did happen to catch him doing his hair once and was transfixed. When I see his hair on other people in the real world, it makes me cry a little on the inside.
I don't know if it's just me, but I find it really ironic that hundreds of married couples are dancing down the aisle to a Chris Brown song. I mean, you're having a wedding to promise each other you will love and protect each other forever. So why would you dance down the aisle to a song by somebody who beat the crap out of his girlfriend? Doesn't that send a horrible message about what the rest of your marriage will be like?
Personally, I was horrified that they danced down the aisle to that song on the Office, and every time a Chris Brown song comes on the radio I change it because I can't allow myself to support him in any way.
And it's not because I hate him and think he doesn't deserve to ever be forgiven, but I don't think he's truly sorry for what he did. I don't think he really understands what he did, which is why he's going on Larry King and Youtube and reading off a teleprompter. I think he's sorry about the consequences for what he did, but not the act itself.
@Hiroine Protagonist: Yeah I did not know that and it just made me lose respect for the writers a little bit. Oh well, the show's going downhill anyways... #chrisbrownmtv
@blueruinelf: I mean, that was a parody of a YouTube video in which a real couple danced down the aisle to that same song. I guess they could have changed the song, but it would have made the parody kind of nonexistent, or at least very confusing. #chrisbrownmtv
@lydiafaye007: I think he's sorry about the consequences for what he did, but not the act itself.
This. And what's even greater is that watching the Rihanna interview last night, she knows it, too. Wish I'd had that kind of self-awareness when I was her age. #chrisbrownmtv
@leslieannelevine: Yeah, the point on the Office was that Jim and Pam's guests had seen this viral video and decided to recreate it. The participates in the viral video have a website, and decided to put a link to donate to a charity for domestic abuse victims up on the site-- [www.jkweddingdance.com]#chrisbrownmtv
@leslieannelevine: Yes. This. Also, the couple who were married in the original youtube video have a website where anyone can donate to the Sheila Wellstone Institute. The link is here. From the site: "Due to the circumstances surrounding the song in our wedding video, we have chosen the Sheila Wellstone Institute.
Sheila Wellstone was an advocate, organizer, and national champion in the effort to end domestic violence in our communities." #chrisbrownmtv
@Hiroine Protagonist: @blueruinelf: Don't judge them too harshly! On the show, it's made clear that interrupting the service that Pam and Jim had planned to play the Chris Brown song was a move totally orchestrated by Michael. As is typical of Michael's gestures, it's totally out of touch and inappropriate. It makes the interruption way more cringe-inducing. Pam and Jim look kind of horrified and at one point I think Pam's sister says to her, "I know you had this song on your Do Not Play list," so maybe we're supposed to infer that Pam doesn't like Chris Brown and didn't want his songs played at her wedding because of the domestic violence connection. I thought the writers' choice to use the song had a lot more to do with the cultural cachet of that YouTube video than the song's creator or his behavior.

@leslieannelevine: Yeah, I got that and I totally understood what they were doing. I just couldn't get over the fact that it was Chris Brown singing. About love.
I think they could have very easily done something different and had it be just as funny.
On a different note: Was it ironic that Dwight kicked the bride's maid in the face..?
@lydiafaye007: Absolutely. We all would have known what they were referencing if they had chosen a different song. Oh well. Blame it on Michael. That combined with his fake-suicide stunt have re-kindled the kind of loathing I felt for the Gervais character on the original. #chrisbrownmtv
