I’M A FAN OF KARA DIOGUARDI, ARE YOU??

Friday, May 29th, 2009

My boyfriend and I always argue over it when we’re watching Idol… he’s just “medium” on her - I think she’s fantastic.  I’ve mentioned on the show a few times how she was a co-writer on the current song “Not Meant to Be” by Theory of  Deadman (and on about a billion other hit songs…!) - today  a listener called to let me know she also STARS in the video for the song - thank you for the tip!  Sorry if I’m a bit behind on this one… I just had never seen it!  Have a looksie:

 

T.R. KNIGHT IS NOT LEAVING GREY’S…?

Thursday, May 28th, 2009

This morning they said he was, now he’s not… look at this post from Perez Hilton’s page:

He’s in. He’s out.

He’s back in?

This morning it was reported that T.R. Knight was not returning for the next season of Grey’s Anatomy

But, not so fast, because now there might be hope.

A tweet from show creator Shonda Rhimes suggests that the news of T.R.’s departure is false or as she puts it, “a hilarious, ridiculous rumor.”

But is it?

All anyone is sure about is that both he and Katherine Heigl are under contract for another season and judging by Shonda’s instant reaction to the news, she clearly wants to keep them on board.

At the fall upfronts for ABC, entertainment boss Stephen McPherson also weighed in on the situation, but gave no definite answer: “They’ve both signed on [for next season]. I can’t say whether or not they’ll both be there.”

Way to keep the fans dangling.

Our bet: Geroge out, Izzie in.

But we’ll just have to wait and see!

 

Is my thumb green? I wanna find out.

So I’m gonna try growing veggies this year!  Why not?  We’re all trying to save a buck and what better way to save than to grow your own food… ok, my garden is pretty small, but I’m hoping to get a few delicious salads out of it!  We don’t have a ton of outdoor space, so I found an Upside-Down Patio Garden… the tomatos grow upside down out of the bottom, and the other veggies sprout out of the top!  I have 4 tomato plants on the bottom then lettuce, sweet banana peppers, red bell peppers and green beans on the top.  I just planted yesterday and I woke up this morning anxious to check on them… looking forward to seeing how long my excitement for this lasts, because right now, I’m pretty stinkin’ excited! 

I really don’t know much about growing food - so if you have ANY suggestions, tips or stories of your own, I’d love to hear ‘em.  Post comments here or email me to jen@q104.com

GREY’S ANATOMY SCOOP!!!!!

Friday, May 15th, 2009

Just found this posted on Perez Hilton’s website… a chat with Shonda Rhimes about George and Izzie from Entertainment Weekly!!!  Here’s the excerpt he posted:

Rumors have been swirling all year that Katherine and TR wanted off the show. The season ends with both their characters’ lives hanging in the balance. Purely coincidental?
SHONDA RHIMES: I don’t think there are any coincidences. I think Katherine’s stated publicly that she’s happy to stay. I think that there have been lots of rumors about TR, but TR’s never said anything. Take from it what you will.

Do you know which one of them lives and which one of them dies?
RHIMES: Yes. And I don’t know that you should be saying “which one of them lives and which one of them dies.” I know what happens to the characters.

Have you shared this information with Katherine and TR?
RHIMES: [Crickets, then…] I don’t want to answer that. I don’t want to talk about my private conversations with the actors.

Will Katherine be putting her name back in the Emmy race this season?
RHIMES: You know, I don’t know. I think she did beautiful work. I think she always does beautiful work.

Did Meredith and Derek really get married last night?
RHIMES: Their wedding was a Post-it note. We had a big series of discussions about it in the writers’ room. I felt very strongly — very very strongly — that the last thing Meredith Grey would do is put on a wedding dress and walk down an aisle. It just felt wrong to me, Meredith being Meredith. And the Post-it wedding will have big reverberations next season.

Will we still get an official wedding at some point?
RHIMES: I think they feel it is an official wedding.
