Strange but smart

I know I don't like Lady Gaga at all but I thought this was quite smart...

I came across a Youtube video of Alejandro that had been reversed and noticed something quite funny. I'm surprised that no one else has discovered this.

If you skip to 4:18 (which is actually the introduction of the music video) you will notice that Lady Gaga is saying "My name is Stefani, I I am Stefani".



Can you hear it?

Heartbreaker




"The rom-com of the summer"
Harpers Bazaar

"A real crowd pleaser ★★★★"
Heat Magazine

"Utterly Chic"
Vogue


Are you ready for the romantic comedy of the summer?

Heartbreaker is a French movie starring Romain Duris and Vanessa Paradis. Alex (Duris) is a professional heartbreaker. His job is to come between two lovers and split them up using his sole weapon: seduction. His latest mission is to tempt Juliette (Paradis), a rich (and very stylish) socialite, from her lover but this proves very difficult. However, this doesn't stop Alex from doing anything he could possibly do to sweep Juliette off her feet. Filled with comedy and lots of gorgeous dresses, this is the ultimate chick flick.





Now I am usually a harsh critic when it comes to movies as I am not easily pleased. However, on this occasion I absolutely loved the film! I was a bit sceptical at first as the introduction seemed quite serious and dull. (Plus I didn't even know that it was going to be in French. Quite a few people actually left the cinema without giving the movie a chance, which is a shame but it was their loss...) But then the comedy came out of nowhere and left all the viewers laughing. There is a lot more comedy surprises in this movie. I would love to share some of them with you but I don't want to ruin it for you.

There is also a little action in this movie (perfect for a date night!). I love how they made the action moments comical, which is great for me as I hate action.

And I must mention the beautiful scenery of this movie. The bulk of it is set in Monaco. If you don't have the cash to fly to this beautiful country this summer, then you can enjoy its gorgeous landscape for the cost of a cinema ticket.

Overall, I love love love this film and I think every single one of you should watch it! The only thing that ruined it for me was that the seats in front of me were blocking the subtitles so I'd advise you to find a seat that allows you to see the whole screen. But that issue aside, the movie truly deserves a 10/10!

Heartbreaker will be in cinemas on July 2nd so make a note in your diaries! I hope you all enjoy the movie as much as I did.

Alejandro music video. What the...?

Who has seen Lady Gaga's Alejandro?

There are a million things just plain WRONG with that video. Not just with what is going on in the video but what it is trying to imply.

I'm not going to waste my time on this issue as it's not worth my time. I would like to know what you think of it and what you think the meaning of the video is though. So please leave a comment and let me know!

Getaway - Michelle Branch and Timbaland

I love Michelle and I love her new song! I've been waiting so long to finally hear it.



What do you think of her new song?

I never imagined Michelle and Timbaland to collaborate but what they created together is perfect!

The latest iPhone has:
  • 5 megapixel camera with flash

  • Bigger battery - longer battery life
and many many more new features!

Watch this video for more information on the latest iPhone



The iPhone will be out on June 24th but it is available to pre-order from the 15th.

If you already have an iPhone or even an iPod touch, the iOS4 will be released later this month and you can get a free upgrade! This includes the choice to put have your applications in folders, multitasking (the ability to have more than one app open at a time) and the iBooks app as well as many other features!

What do you think of iPhone 4?

Got that Friday Feeling?


Crunchie rocks are clusters of crunchy cornflakes and sweet and crunchy honeycomb pieces in Cadbury milk chocolate.

I tried these today and they taste amazing. I have almost finished the whole packet which is really bad considering I'm supposed to be on a diet :S Oh well, it was strictly for research purposes (Yeah that's my lame excuse)

At the moment they're only £1 at Morrisons (I'm not sure about anywhere else) so they make a cheap and cheerful Friday treat (or any day of the week really)

I hope your Friday is just as sweet as this yummy treat!

Forever 21 finally to arrive in the UK!




It's official! It has been confirmed that Forever 21, the LA based fashion store, will be opening its first UK store in the heart of England - Birmingham! The 53,000 sq foot store will be in the Bull Ring shopping centre, one of Europe's largest shopping centres.

It is believed that Westfield Stratford city will be the location of the second store though this has not yet been confirmed.

If you live too far from any of these, don't worry as executive vice president, Larry Meyer, has stated that they are hoping to expand all over the UK. Fingers crossed for online ordering too!

Are you looking forward to Forever 21 coming to the UK?
