November Favorites: JLaw’s 3rd Fall, ‘Memento’ Remake & Sofia Vergara’s Wedding Dress

nov faves

November was a terrible month in serious news. Watching the evening news was hard, but when it came to pop culture there always seemed to be something uplifting to read.

As I say time and time again, pop culture news is always there for ya. Here are my favorites for the month of November.

Favorite News Articles

1. Jennifer Lawrence falls AGAIN. I think she’s the most accident prone person in Hollywood.

2. Memento is getting a remake. Sepia? Snapchat? Is this being written into the script or nah?

3. The judge told ’em like it is. À la Taylor Swift lyrics.

4. The Breakup Shop. The fact that this exists is sad.

Favorite Instagrams

1. Sofia Vergara’s wedding dress. Simply fabulous.

2. Chrissy Teigen’s sprawling out. Werk.

3. That cigarette tho. Gotta love TFIOS.

4. Nathan Kress is married. Yes. You read correctly. Congratulations!

Favorite Music

1. “Home” by Islandis. These guys need to make more music. STAT!

2. “Light Up” by Mutemath. I see psychedelic lights every time I hear the intro to this song.

3. “Adventure of a Lifetime” by Coldplay. This song is making me so excited for the new album!

4. “Hotline Bling” Justin Bieber Remix. I listened to it on my cell phone. Right before my train went underground.

Favorite TV Episode

1. Limitless, “Headquarters!” Please tell me I’m not the only one still laughing at Mike dressed like a girl at the end!

2. The Mindy Project, “Jody Kimball-Kinney Is My Husband.” Can we just stop for a second and think about the chaos…

3. Castle, “The Last Seduction.” I get so happy when Beckett and Castle are together ❤

Favorite YouTube Video

1. James Corden and  Justin Bieber pick clothes for each other. James looks like a street kid. What even.

2. Arden “just threw it on.” Will’s hand cameo was perf.

3. Will and Arden in the kitchen. These two are so adorbs I had to feature them twice this month 🙂

4. Mike Falzone’s “Hotline Beard.” Why didn’t he choreograph Drake’s video and save him the embarrassment?!

5. People are mad at the red Starbucks cups. But KKK cups? KKK CUPS?!

The holidays are coming! Happy December!

Fall 2013 Playlist

fall playlist

Summer is over, guys. As much as you want to hold on to your tank tops and surf boards, autumn is here. It’s time to bring out the rake for all those leaves.

Fall is characterized by rustling leaves and jack-o-lanterns, scarecrows and creepy mansions. Therefore, I present to you a fall playlist of 15 songs that will make you feel haunted.

1. Spotlight, Mutemath: Many of you might remember this song from the first Twilight movie when Bella notices everyone in the school parking lot is staring at her and Edward Cullen as they walk into the building. The melody created by the chorus of ‘ahs’ in this song will send chills up your spine. In a good way.

2. Meet My Friends, Gold Fields: This Aussie band will send you into a frenzy with the sinister guitar rifts featured in this song! The lyrics are very dark as well, as they sing, “I saw faces, I saw the fear.” Look away!

3. Entertainment, Phoenix: French band Phoenix uses some creepy sounding synth melodies for this track in order to entertain you. So, did they succeed?

4. I Belong to You, Muse: This song is also featured in a Twilight movie, New Moon to be exact. How comfortable are you with the notion of belonging to Muse?

5. Bones, MS MR: Pretty Little Liars fans might remember this song from the episode where the girls attend Detective Wilden’s funeral. Will you obey MS MR’s command to “Dig up her bones but leave the soul alone”?

6. Bittersweet World, Ashlee Simpson: Got some skeletons in your closet? Well maybe you should let them out so that they can dance to this song!

7. Not in Love, Crystal Castles ft. Olin and the Moon: The notoriously dark electronic band Crystal Castles teams up with Olin and the Moon for this anti-love track. The synth might actually relax you. Might.

8. One Life Stand, Hot Chip: The ever so clever Hot Chip creates a frightful track using a play on the concept of a “one night stand.” Now, the real question is, do you want to be Hot Chip’s one life stand?

9. Insomniatic, Aly and AJ (78Violet): Aly and AJ recorded and released this song before changing their name to 78Violet. I cannot be held responsible if this song keeps you up at night.

10. Howl, Florence and the Machine: The beautiful yet creepy violins in this song make this one of Florence’s masterpieces. So, be careful young, lovers.

11. Heavy Heart, Canon Blue: The discordant synth intro of this song is enough to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end. Enjoy!

12. Polish Girl, Neon Indian: I don’t know who she is but Neon Indian is taken by this Polish girl. How quickly can she take you?

13. Shoot the Water, Austra: Between the piano melody and the lyrics, I can’t decide which is creepier. I think the lyrics win, especially when she sings, “I want your blood, I want it in my hair.” Eww.

14. Bloody Mary, Lady Gaga: She won’t cry for you. She just won’t do it. Beware, the deep male ghost-like voices that sing “GAGA” in the bridge are quite alarming. And scary.

15. Are You Afraid?, Rooney: After all of this haunted stuff is said and done, are you afraid? Did I actually give you a scare? Rooney wants to know!
