The Oscars are one of the most glamorous events of the year.
Hollywood starlets emerge from polished limousines like exotic birds. Reporters and paparazzi crowd the red carpet with their cameras and microphones, begging for just one moment with the night’s most popular nominees. While some viewers flip off the television as soon as the red […]

Personally, I think One Tree Hill’s Peyton Sawyer said it best on Peyton’s Podcast: “Sometimes, things find you when you need them to find you, I believe that. For me, it’s usually song lyrics.”
Almost every chick has had a moment in her life when she’s stumbled upon a song that somehow managed to capture her […]

After a ten year hiatus, Sade returned February 9th with Soldier of Love. Full of romantic interludes and a sultry voice that empowers listeners too, Sade didn’t disappoint with her second album’s release.

The creative Pennsylvanian first began dabbling in the world of making […]

However, by […]

Most chicks have heard of Jodi Picoult, probably from the movie based on her book My Sister’s Keeper, but have you checked out her other books?
If you haven’t you should really consider it, especially if you liked “My Sister’s Keeper.” She covers topics that most authors would never think about trying to touch.

I’ve never been really into music (well, not since the 90s anyways). I’m the kind of girl who just listens to the radio and whatever’s on it, generally a go-with-the-flow kind of chick (or at least when it comes to music).
When someone tells me to listen to a song, I do, and I usually like […]
