Once upon a time (January 2010), in a land far, far away (well far if you live in China), I did a set visit to the NBC show “Community”. In this magical land of television… of lights, cameras, action and all that other fancy stuff related to Hollywood… I had a conversation with Joel McHale, …
OK so it’s the end of 2010…and another year is upon us. What this means? (Well, aside from finding some crazy party to go to so that we can all take pictures and update our statuses about how great the night was…) It’s time for New Year’s resolutions. And to be honest – I don’t …
I interview a lot of people. Famous people, in fact (which, I’m assuming you know, since well…you’re reading this blog.) And…I don’t get star struck. But every once in a while, I can become a little…“fan-like.” This usually happens whenever the person is from the 90’s, or related to music or basketball. Why? Because I …
So, fate had it that I ended up at LA-trendy-burger joint Umami Burger the other night (thought trendy and burger in my opinion should contradict eachother.) Umami, being a “trendy” place, obviously had a wait. Yes, 12-dollar-burgers (no sides included) are wait-worthy…when you’re expensing your meal. So, I waited. And in that waiting period, I …
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,” …
Who: Samia Khan, Anand Murthy, and Top Chef Masters star Rick Bayless. What: Dining together at a new restaurant (sort of.) Where: At Bayless’ new restaurant, “Red O” on Melrose in Los Angeles. When: A few Fridays ago, 10pm. Why: Because we were hungry. Alright here’s the deal. We didn’t ACTUALLY eat with Bayless. But …
A comic, a journalist, a professional basketball player, and a “Housewife” all walk into a comedy club…. The journalist says to the comic, “I love the Spurs! I have to talk to Tony.” The comic says to the journalist, “OK, go take a picture.” The housewife says to the comic taking a photo with the …
