Cruel Tuesday
 |
| Cruel Intention Sarah Michelle Gellar Kathryn Merteuil: Unfortunately, our Don Juan is moving with the speed of a Special Olympics hurdler. |
One of my favorite movies of the 90's is Cruel Intentions. It is based on Les Liaisons dangereuses. It captured mean teens unlike anything around at the time and it became a hit and an enduring classic.
Whilst hitting the WWW this ayem I came across a piece featuring factoids about the movie, ya know, behind the scenes stuff.
Today's Cruel Tuesday fact is about the film's star Sarah Michelle Gellar - source E!Online.
DYE JOB
One of Hollywood's hottest blondes thanks to her star-making turn as Buffy Summers on Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Gellar wanted to separate herself from the popular WB series when it came to the seductive and devious Kathryn.
"That was Sarah's thing: 'I don't want to look like Buffy'" Kumble recalled.
But it was more than just the hair change that helped Gellar, who grew up on the Upper East Side herself, deliver such a stellar performance, as she really was able to embrace the debauchery of the character without wanting to make her sympathetic.
"We had long talks about her history. Roger used to always say, ‘Don't you think that she was abused?'" she told Premiere magazine in 1999. "And I'd say, 'No, I think she had a perfect upbringing. I think her mother adored her and her father sent her amazing gifts. She just wanted more."
Looking back on the experience, Gellar revealed to The Huffington Post that Cruel Intentions was one of her two "best film experiences," explaining, "We just knew we were making something that was so different and we were all so passionate and so excited. And we were all friends! It was just such a great time making that and letting it go as far as it did."
There was one aspect of playing the "Marcia f--king Brady of the Upper East Side" that Gellar did not love: "Although, the ground-up chamomile, the substitute I used for coke was not fun. I have allergies and since chamomile is kind of pollen-like, my nose and throat had it rough for a while."

Monday Motivation
 |
| Teetotaler Jennifer Aniston |
Sometimes we all need some help to get going - so why don't you join myself and another Fab @ 50 celebrity Jennifer Aniston in a cup of Green Tea???
"Yes" do it all the popular people are. Peer pressure, peer pressure...well if you are 50 and over that is.
Green Tea is where it's at where it's at I got two turntables and a microphone - for the over 5-0 set.
Better you start now if you aren't, trust the benefits are fifty shades of realness.
That's correct do it and do it now!
Yeah, I am that Monday Motivation that happens when Hell freezes over minions!!!

Perfectionists
Alright as many of you may, or perhaps not know I am a HUGE Pretty Little Liars fan! Thus you can only imagine my anticipation for the March 20th premiere of Pretty Little Liars: The Perfectionists on Freeform.
So rather than gush today I thought I would fan out and post some of the 411 we have on the spin off so far...Hey, it's my blog and I'll do what I want to.
Here are some deets about the show:
"The town of Beacon Heights seems perfect, from its top-tier college to its overachieving residents, but nothing is as it appears to be; when the high-stakes environment pushes the residents to a breaking point, someone snaps and a murder occurs."

It's Raining RHOBH
 |
| United Front Kyle Richards, Teddi Mellencamp, Lisa Rinna & Dorit Kemsley |
In a season that is clearly on of the best of the show, number 9 to be exact, is knocking the proverbial sh!t hitting the fan out of the park!
In a clearly divisive season where Queen Bee Lisa Vanderpump is in the process of losing her throne as everyone is against her for her manipulative ways. Trust me she is - this is juicy stuff week after week.
While I know these shows are produced there is truth to the actual situations. Case in point? Bear witness to Kyle Richards, Teddi Mellencamp, Lisa Rinna & Dorit Kemsley hitting Craig's in West Hollywood.
These women joined forces against the Lisa Vanderpump in this past weeks episode and it's obviously their way of saying LVP is going to be taken down, wait for it...it's not going to happen now, I said wait for it. I know you will.
Stay dry minions!!!
