I recently did a segment for “That’s Life” on Fox 8 at a store called “Room Service”.  It’s in the Gordon Square Arts District (you know, the hip and upcoming area in the Detroit Shoreway Neighborhood).  While I was there, the owner, Danielle DeBoe told me about “Made in the 216″, an event that she created to highlight how many designers are choosing to stay and build their businesses right here in Cleveland…  super cool, huh?  Support this fantastic event happening this weekend!

Items you’ll see there:  men and women’s apparel, jewelry, t-shirts, totes, personal accessories, stationary, photography, screen prints, household goods, furniture and music. 

Hours:  Friday 4-9 pm, Saturday 11-9 pm

According to an email I just got from momlogic.com, here’s the skinny:

Whoa! We didn’t see this coming! The AP is reporting that in their divorce papers, Kate Gosselin claims she and husband Jon have been living “separate and apart” for at least two years. What about their show?!?

Gosselin filed for divorce yesterday, saying in court documents that her 10-year marriage is “irretrievably broken.” She also says the couple hasn’t been able to reach an agreement on how to divide their things — like their homes, etc.

That’s a far cry from the family people have welcomed into their homes on their hit TLC show “Jon and Kate Plus 8″ — portraying themselves as a happy couple. Remember the wedding vow renewal in Hawaii?? What a joke!

By allowing cameras to film their lives and the lives of their eight children, the Gosselins reportedly receive $75,000 an episode from the network. The show is in its fifth season.

You’ve probably heard that Carly Smithson (from last season of American Idol) landed a new gig as the lead singer of former band EVANESENCE who will now call themselves “The Fallen”.  Except, they’re getting sued for that name, so they’ve changed it again… scoop HERE

First of all, I can’t BELIEVE I’m blogging about this!  I’ve only seen clips of the show online and read about it in the tabloids… and have always said, “I’m not getting suckered into that hype!”   For some reason, reading about this show that, in my world, kinda popped up out of nowhere irritated me… 

Now don’t get me wrong, it still irritates me, but  it’s actually official now.  I’m suckered into the hype.  Especially after I read some of the “announcement theories” HERE that are just random and entertaining… good for a few chuckles!  You have any ideas on what they’ll announce?  Get irritated by reading so much about the show (I can’t be the only one, right)?  Post your comments here…

So the album’s being released this summer but it was recorded in 2007…???  Huh?!?!
