Greg Finley. Six feet tall, New England-born, basketball-loving, Hanes wearing (yes I saw them), Simply Orange-drinking actor most known for his role on “The Secret Life of the American Teenager.” As for his secret life? Well… I hung out with him for a few hours as he posed for the Fall 2010 Michael Wright Collection, …
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1M3MD6Nf8dM] Raisins. The Bulldogs. An infamous Anne Heche discovery. And part of the “Parenthood” storyline. Yes, these are all things related to my hometown of Fresno… a city that I love. Heck, I’ll rep it til I die (see proof). I refuse to change my cell phone area code, and still use my Fresno address …
What happens when you’re a guest on a radio show, you discuss your favorite radio station and an artist they feature (hence why you love it), and then you fly to Vegas two days later?!? Um. You meet said-artist in the airport, and he invites you to his house. Unfortunately, the artist I was talking …
Soulja Boy likes swag. Like…a lot. The last time we chatted, we talked about his song “Turn My Swag On.” At the time, I didn’t really know what swag was, or well, if I had it. Fast forward 13 months to June 2010 and well…he still has swag. In fact, he has “Pretty Boy Swag,” …

When I was four years old, Hulk Hogan scared me.
When I was twenty-four years old, I told him this.
Now, telling a professional wrestler that he’s scary is one of two things.
When I say “Topanga,” what does it mean to you? If you’re old and into ‘suburban life’ and live in LA, you’re probably thinking of the mall right off the 101 freeway. However if you’re young and cool and hip and watched TGIF (like me), you obviously thought of Cory Matthews love interest on the …
This just in: Brian Williams is a huge fan of obituaries, owns two American cars, and thinks Jon Stewart is a necessary branch of government. Good evening, I’m Samia Khan. (The lead of my hypothetical newscast after my run-in with Brian Williams.) Alright enough of the daydreaming. Let’s talk business. My business. News business. I …
OK so I have a confession… Everytime I see a mustache, I can’t help but laugh. OK maybe not laugh, but smile. Smirk. LOL in my head. And well, this past November was no exception… that’s when, thanks to a few dear friends (yes Waldo and Waseem, I’m talkin about you guys,) I learned about …
