There was an article in the New York Times this weekend about the latest crop of Carrie Bradshaw-wannabes, who chronicle their dating lives and hope to land their own Mr. Big. The article made me smile because for as long as Sex and the City has been around, so have a slew of “real-life” Carries, [...]

This aired on SNL this past weekend but I’ve been to busy to blog about it. Dibs told me about this and I love it. Rock on, Tina Fey!
Politics is such an emotional subject, especially when it comes to a presidential election. I had watched the Texas debate with Peter, who’s an Obama supporter. Me? [...]

I got back into NYC on Super Bowl Sunday and quickly discovered that the place I thought I’d be subletting wasn’t going to happen. I swear the Craigslist ad said $1100 for the month. I get there and the guy informs me it’s $1100 per week! Um… not going to happen (and only in New [...]

Felicitations to M. and Mme Nicolas Sarkozy (III)! The couple tied the knot today in Paris—quiet ceremony at the Elysee Palace (the French White House), requisite fashionable witnesses (his from LVMH; hers from Prada), and a teetotaling OJ toast—all while I was crossing the Atlantic to go back to NYC. See what you miss when [...]

The media circus that passes for journalism these days had a whopper of a story this week. The death of a famous, handsome and successful young Hollywood actor whose female conquests (Heather Graham, Naomi Watts, Lindsay Lohan, Mary Kate Olsen, Helena Christensen among them) probably outnumbered his movie roles. The fact that Heath Ledger was [...]

I wasn’t going to post about the whole Nicolas Sarkozy/Carla Bruni affair. After all, hasn’t it gotten enough press? But with all the “did they or didn’t they get married” hoopla and the “is she or isn’t she pregnant” debate, it seems like I’d be ignoring something huge that’s going on in France right now. [...]
