  • New Guilty Pleasure: Jersey Shows!

    First off, I know these shows do not depict the real New Jersey. And I acknowledge that people have been insulted and embarrassed by these shows.

    With that said, I have to admit I can't get enough of these New Jersey shows. Fist pumping, GTL (Gym, tan, and laundry), and hair poufs, these "guidos" and "guidettes" have established a place in television history.

    MTV first noticed the popularity of the garden state back in 2003 when they did an episode of True Life: I have a Summer Share which featured twenty somethings living on seaside for the summer. This episode became one their most popular, which led to True Life: I have a Summer Share 2, True Life: I'm a Jersey Girl, and then to the ever so controversial Jersey Shore in 2009. This show created so much negative buzz, it actually caused ratings to boost, making Jersey Shore one of MTV's most popular/watched shows (Season 2 coming July 29th!).

    Thanks to their success, shows like Jerseylicious on Style Network and the new Jersey Couture from Oxygen are popping up. These shows might not last past next year or Jersey Shore might become MTV's new Real World. With characters like "The Situation" and "Snooki", all I can say is I'll be there on my couch watching the insanity ensue.

     

  • Sparks the Rescue

    Not much comes to mind when thinking about the state of Maine except for their thousands of lakes... that is until now.

    Sparks the Rescue is a 5-man pop/rock band ensemble from Portland, Maine. Their originality, high energy, and musical talent makes this band a force to reckon with.

    Ten years in the making has evolved Sparks the Rescue, comprised of Alex Roy (vocals),Toby McAllister (guitar), Patrick O'Connell(guitar), Ben Briggs (bass) and Nathan Spencer (drums) from high school wannabes to rock stars. In 2009, MTV crowned them the official winner of the "I Want My Music On MTV! Competition!, and they are now are touring across the country on the VANS WARPED TOUR.

    Their latest single "We Love Like Vampires" off of their "Eyes to the Sun" album has caught the attention of fans and vampire lovers everywhere. They have incorporated societies obsession/fad with vampires into a pop/rock love song.

    I love their music video because it is unique, yet relatable, and I must say they do look good with fangs!

    Whether or not you caught the VMA Awards last night, chances are you heard plenty about it. Drama or no drama, some of our favorite musicians and celebs brought their game to the dance floor, showcasing some of the latest styles, and always daring to be different.

    Taylor Swift bejewed in a flowy gown. Alicia Keys rockin' the sequins.

    Beyonce was a lady in red while Katy Perry kept it sassy in silver.

    And....sometimes you get caught looking not so different...

    Pink and Shakira laughed it off, though, and made the best of a funny situation.

    Who wore your favorite look?
