Marie Osmond’s Dollface

Monday, December 3rd, 2007

Not only did she make us look at her dressed like a doll…now she wants us to actually BUY her dolls?!

Kids will be lining up to buy a Marie Osmond Dancing-inspired doll from QVC. Dolls debut on November 29 at 6 p.m. There are four in the collection, each sporting an outfit that Marie wore on the show.

There’s the Boogie Woogie doll, the Paso Doble doll, the Quickstep doll, and the Freestyle doll from the season finale. There were two other dolls, the Samba doll and the Fox Trot dall, but both sold out previously.

Aww, Mom, can I have one for Christmas? Pleeeeaaassse? Yeah, right. I have no desire to encourage Marie’s shameless self promotion.

It’s Back for Zac

Monday, December 3rd, 2007

All you middle school tweenies out there, you can let out your collaborative sigh of relief. The talks are over and it’s a done deal – Zac Efron will return as Troy Bolton in High School Musical 3.

Apparently he’s a hot commodity these days – with the movies, CDs, and even his own doll. And Disney isn’t holding back – they are giving him $3 million plus a chance to approve the script for the movie. Talk about a sweet deal.

With him, he’s bringing back onscreen and real-life girlfriend Vanessa Hudgens. Rumors circulated that Disney wouldn’t want her included because of the circulation of her self-taken nude pics, but public support and her supposed regret changed their minds. Also signed up is Ashley Tisdale to reprise her role as Sharpay.

It will be the start of something new for the group – or will it? I just hate sequels – with the exception of Back to the Future and Final Destination, they just aren’t generally worth it.

But I do love me some Zac….mmm, mmm, mmm…

Chicken Pox Strike Posh & Ginger

Aww, I just wanna hug the poor babies.

Just before the start of their world tour, the Spice Girls are stricken with the chicken pox. Well, not the Spice Girls themselves, but their children.

According to the reports, Cruz Beckham, son of Victoria “Posh Spice” Beckham, had the chicken pox. Now he’s passed them on to Bluebell, the 18 month old daughter of Geri “Ginger Spice” Halliwell.

Ginger says it was inevitable that the kids would end up sharing the outbreak because they just love to play together. She is now having to leave Bluebell behind when they head to Vancouver on Sunday.

I remember the chicken pox – well, I remember oatmeal baths and calamine lotion. It was the best Christmas ever!
