This Tuesday afternoon was even more fabulous than usual because we had guest Alex Miranda in the studio chatting with us on the show. Alex is not only totally faboosh, but he happens to be quite intelligent as well, check out his blog here.
So, topic of discussion for today was hair of the ginger variety. Since the release of the trailer for the film Cherry Bomb, we've become aware of the fact that little Ruper Grint aka Ronald Weesley has grown up quite splendidly. Seeing little Ronald in an adult role made us wonder - why don't gingers get more love? Valeria definitely appreciates the firey locks of Mr. Grint so why doesn't everyone else? Personally I've never been a huge fan of the red heads but there are a select few that I enjoy. Take for instance Mr. Charlie Waller of the Rumble Strips - he's a personal favorite. Charlie has a nice thick head of deep red hair and I find him very attractive. Sure it might help that he's in a awesome band but I happen to think that part of his charm lies in his boyish good looks (which are complimented by the hair) and incomprehensible speech pattern. Even though all of us seemed to be in agreement that the darker locks were more preferable, we still had some love for a select few blondies and red heads. We like to think that we're equal opportunity lovers.
So as many of you know, I am a HUGE Killers fan. This weekend some big news in the Killers fandom finally broke. You see Brandon Flowers and his wife had a baby boy in July of 2007 but aside from one very old picture, we had no actualy proof that this baby existed. It almost seemed as if we imagined the birth of this child and without further evidence, soon forgot it. But the Gods of Rock have shown light upon us and provided photographic proof of his existence! In the April issue of Blackbook Magazine Brandon posed with his son for a photo and I think it's safe to say that just about everyone within the Killers fandom is either aww-ing themselves into a stupor or attempting to get a baby for themselves. I mean even though half of his face is cut off and he's being held in an awkward position, we can tell he's a cutie! Seeing Brandon with his adorable son made us think - who are our favorite celebrity babies? My personal favorite (aside from baby Flowers) is Kingston, the spawn of Gwen
Stefani and Gavin Rossdale. Not only does he have a cool name but the kid has been spotted wearing a cape - you don't get any cooler than that. Valeria chose the classy route with Shiloh Jolie-Pitt - a baby that will undoubtedly grow to be more attractive than 97% of the population. Other popular celeb spawns at OYTD were Ava and Deacon, the result of the former super couple of Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillipe. While it's too difficult to discuss the dissolution of that relationship, we think it's quite cute (and a little creepy) that each kid look just like the parent of their respective sex. Just good genes, I guess.One of the biggest news stories of this past week has been the Obamas globe-trotting. Now here at OYTD what we really care about is whether
or not Michelle was workin' it fashion wise, and we have to say she was looking pretty damn fierce at most events. Aside from one very strange argyle sweater, everything looked very well put together and extremely elegant - we wouldn't expect anything less from our lovely first lady. Now even though we love just about everything miss Obama does, it doesn't mean she hasn't got some haters. Apparently she got some flack for wearing a cardigan when going to meet the Queen because it came off as too casual. Over here at OYTD we thought her outfit was beautiful and figured that she was just covering up because last time she showed off her beautifully sculpted arms, she caused quite a stir with the non-exercising American public. Now maybe wearing a cardigan to meet the Queen is a little understated but considering what the actual Queen was wearing, we think she looked just fine, thank you very much! On another note, is it just us or did it seem like the Obamas were the life of the party?! Every channel I turned to all I saw with Obama hugging everyone and laughing. I mean I realize these are very important men in the world but it looked like once Barack came into the room they were just about ready to throw a kegger with this guy. That's Obama for you. Making American cool again one hug at a time.
