Jayson Blair is styled sexy for MTV Movie Awards

When Jayson Blair made his way down the red carpet at the 2011 MTV Movie Awards, I was genuinely worried it was going to light on fire!! The hunky star of The Hard Times of RJ Berger, made quite an arrival at Universal Studios’ Gibson Amphitheatre on Sunday, June 5th, 2011 in Universal City, California where he posed with co-star Paul Iacono.

His stylish ensemble consisted of an In add minus leather jacket and denim and a snug Calvin Klein V neck that showed off his fit upper body. He finished the look with Creative Collection boots, Persol sunglasses, and a U Boat watch.

While you might be sad that the MTV show recently wrapped its second season, you can look forward to seeing Jayson on the big screen. He just wrapped shooting on the film, Detention of the Dead recently.

Look out for that in 2012.

Taylor Swift shares the love with South Florida fans

South Florida was the latest stop on Taylor Swift’s “Speak Now World Tour” this past Thursday and Friday and boy did fans come out in droves! It was so sweet to see groups of friends dressed up in sparkles and with the number 13 painted on their faces and/or arms. (That is Swift’s favorite number!)

I even noticed mothers and grandmothers attending with their loved ones, many of who joined in on the fun and wore handmade/tour t-shirts to show their support.

I had the pleasure to attend the second show and a special meet and greet before the concert began.  The green room was decorated with fluffy couches, and displays that showed off many of Taylor’s most famous outfits from her career. rosyjulestaylor

To make us feel even more welcome, cookies, fruits, and sodas awaited us before it was our turn to meet the multiple award winner! Words can not begin describe what a down-to-Earth young woman she is and how sweet she is to her fans.

When CoverGirl invited me to attend the Fort Lauderdale performance, I accepted because I’ve long admired her style and bubbly personality. But I left the June 3rd, 2011 show a true fan of Miss Swift for being a talented singer and dedicated performer.

I counted at least nine outfit changes throughout the night which consisted of at least two that seemed to appear out of thin air! Either that or she entered some magical portal that dressed her in a matter of seconds. She also swapped out as many instruments which is one of the things I admired about her the most.

This girl is no machine fabrication, she is the real thing.

You never knew where Taylor was going to pop out of at any given time. Just when you thought you knew where she was coming from, in a Tigger-like move she would spring onto the stage! The next second she ran through the crowd to play a ukelele by a magical looking tree.

This change of location offered fans in a different part of the arena the opportunity to feel like they were in front row.

Her ability to enchant a crowd would render a snake charmer jealous and her positivity was absolutely infectious! Her message is always love and laughter, which was aimed at the legions of girls who admired her from their seats. I’m not even ashamed to count myself as one of them!

Plus we can’t forget her talented group of musicians, dancers, costume designers and set directors who all had a part in making this an unforgettable night for everyone.

So as not to leave any admirers in upper levels without sharing a special moment with her, Taylor jumped into a balcony that came down from the sky that moved her across the whole arena in the air! The twenty one year old created an experience for everyone that took the time out attend.

Run (don’t walk!) and find out if Taylor is heading to your city. Even if you aren’t familiar with all her music, I can promise you that the experience will be hard to duplicate.

Thank you to CoverGirl for the tickets and for the extra tickets they gave me to share with my readers. Hope you all had an amazing time too!

Reese Witherspoon keeps it real at the MTV Movie Awards

At least when Russell Brand hosted the MTV Movie Awards the crowd had a good laugh! Last nights production was an overall flop as far as I’m concerned but there were at least three redeemable moments.

Number one on the list happened when Emmy Award Winning actress Reese Witherspoon accepted the MTV Generation Award for her longtime work in Hollywood. She could have simply thanked fans, family, and the network for the honor but instead she used it as a platform to speak out to all females listening!

“I get it, girls, that it’s cool to be a bad girl,” Reese said during the ceremony which took place at Universal Studios’ Gibson Amphitheatre on Sunday, June 5th, 2011. “But it is possible to make it in Hollywood without doing a reality show. When I came up in this business, if you made a sex tape, you were embarrassed and you hid it under your bed.”

Cheers from the crowd had her laughing before continuing…..

“And if you took naked pictures of yourself on your cell phone, you hide your face, people!” “Hide your face!”

“So, for all the girls out there, it’s totally possible to be a good girl,” the recently wed star added. “I’m going to try to make it cool.”

Reese has always picked up respectable roles and has been able to make it in Holllyweird without any major scandals to speak of. And to further prove what a great role model she is, Reese attended church on Saturday with her handsome hubby Jim Toth.

For those of you wondering what my other two favorite moments were from the MTV Awards here they are:

2. When Alexys Nycole Sanchez accepted the “Best Line” Award for her signature saying, “Let’s Get Chocolate Wasted” from the movie, Grown Ups.

3. When the show ended!

Did you guys enjoy the show?

Get This Look: Selena Gomez in CoverGirl Make-up

After seeing Selena Gomez hit the red carpet at the 2011 MTV Movie Awards, we realized why a superstar like Justin Bieber is so smitten! The Latina beauty stepped out in a neutral colored Giambattista Valli dress and Casadei shoes.

The event, which took place at Universal Studios’ Gibson Amphitheatre on Sunday, June 5th, 2011 in Universal City, California, had many beautiful starlets in attendance but Selena was definitely one of the best dressed!

Being a natural beauty, celebrity make-up artist Karan Mitchell didn’t have to add too much color to Selena’s face. Karan mentioned she wanted the 18-year-old’s makeup look to be fresh and flawless. So she went with a look that had a soft focus and pretty pink lips.

So if you want to attract a handsome, successful young lad or you just want to be pretty in pink, Karan gives us instructions on how you can achieve this look at home. Included is a detailed list of all the products that were used on Selena.

I started with Selena’s eyes. I selected the COVERGIRL Shimmering Sands Eye Enhancer 3-Kits Shadows for her shadow. I used the medium shade of the palette as all over the eye area. I then used the lightest shade on the inside corners and as a highlight under her brow bone.

I then lined her upper and lower lashline with COVERGIRL Perfect Blend Eyeliner in Basic Black. To line the upper lashes I used COVERGiRL LineExact Liquid liner in Very Black and drew a slight wing on the outer corners. I added a few individual lashes and used three coats of new COVERGIRL NatureLuxe Water Resistant Mousse Mascara in Black. This mascara will be available in-store nationwide in July.

For her flawless skin, I used NatureLuxe Silk Foundation in Oak. On her cheeks I applied COVERGIRL Simply Ageless Sculpting Blush in Lush Berry under the cheekbone and blended upward.

I then finished the look with COVERGIRL LipPerfection lipcolor in the soft shimmering pink shade Sweetheart and COVERGIRL ShineBlast Lip Gloss in Dazzle.

If any of you try out this look I’d love for you guys to send me your pictures!!

Tom Sturridge watches tennis with Sienna Miller

This is what happens when you spend too much time with Sienna Miller. You grow out a wild looking beard to avoid anyone recognizing you in public!!

Yeah Ms. Miller is most definitely not on any of my favorite lists but now that the formerly adorable Tom Sturridge is dating the maneater, coverage might be hard to avoid. The pair were photographed admiring each other at a tennis match during the French Open on Sunday, June 5th, 2011 in Paris, France.

In all fairness, the stars do seem to be completely smitten and don’t care who knows it. The former fiance of Jude Law even took a break from cuddling her younger man (who happens to be Robert Pattinson’s best friend!) to have a chat with Vogue’s Editor-In-Chief Anna Wintour who has attended nearly every match during the Open.

Do you guys love this coupling?

Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves have an art filled weekend

Is it just me or has Matthew McConaughey significantly settled down since the birth of his two children?! The star of The Lincoln Lawyer and longtime girlfriend Camila Alves took their children Levi and Vida out for an educational afternoon in Santa Monica, CA on Sunday, June 5th, 2011.

Matthew and Camila are making sure their children are cultured by visiting the Bergamot Station Art Galleries where the dressed up family admired contemporary art on display at Southern California’s largest art gallery complex and cultural center.

Little Levi is gearing up to celebrate this third birthday on July 6th. Did you notice how his brown hair has gotten a lot blonder?

Can’t help but adore this little family!

Hot Hunk Round Up: Patrick Dempsey and Ryan Reynolds

With so many hotties heating up my television this evening, it was hard to pick my favorites. Patrick Dempsey and Ryan Reynolds were the clear winners!!

The pretty pair walked the red carpet at the 2011 MTV Movie Awards held at Universal Studios’ Gibson Amphitheatre on Sunday, June 5th, 2011 in Universal City, California.  Both actors kept their looks casual and cool since this award show caters to a much more relaxed crowd than the Emmy’s or Golden Globes for example.

I was elated that Patrick got to hit the stage twice tonight in support of his upcoming guest role in Transformers: Dark of the Moon and to honor his Sweet Home Alabama co-star Reese Witherspoon.

Which Hollywood hottie do you like best?
