Penn Badgley turns 24 years old today and in celebration of his birthday, he was presented with a chocolate cake on the set of Gossip Girl in NYC earlier today. Unfortch for Penn, because this impromptu birthday party took place on the GG set, he had to “celebrate” with his ex-girlfriend and GG co-star Blake Lively:

Now, it’s entirely possible that things between Penn and Blake are just fine in the wake of their recent break-up … then again, things could be totally shitty depending who did the breaking up with who … especially when you consider that the couple have to work so closely together on set day after day. Let’s send all of our Birthday Lurve to Penn today in the hopes that his birthday is a Happy one, not a Crappy one.

Glee Recap: Born This Way

It was the highly anticipated ‘Born This Way’ episode last night on Glee. Did you miss it? No worries, we’ve got the full recap here. Grab yourself a beverage and sit tight. This was a 90 minute episode, folks, so here we go! Egads, Nationals are just two weeks away, and Mr. Schue praises the Glee Club for their singing, but their dancing? Um, time for some choreography bootcamp! Before you know it, Finn accidentally whacks Rachel on the nose, she’s sent to the hospital and we find out her schnozzola is broken. Hmmm. The doc tells Rach that this is the opportune time to correct her deviated septum and do a little cosmetic work, aka nose job. He points out that doing the surgery could also help her hit some of those higher notes she might not have been able to before. You see the wheels a churnin’… So Rach tells the group what’s going on, they of course are against it and Santana goes off on a tangent about looking in the mirror and not liking what you see so do something about it and change it. She talks about Sam maybe wanting a mouth reduction or maybe [...]

Yesterday we saw a batch of really cute photos of Natalie Portman‘s babydaddy-to-be Benjamin Millepied dancing his buns off on the streets of NYC, NY. It turns out that Ben was actually filming a commercial for Yves St. Laurent. Today, we get to see a few more photos from the set of the YSL commercial shoot and as you can see from the photos below, Benjamin really got into the swing of things this time around.

Aww … I bet this commercial is going to turn out really well … but, I have to say, I’m kinda bummed that this turned out to be a commercial shoot and not an impromptu and random dance session. I really loved the idea that Benjamin was just walking along and then BAM! he decided to bust out some serious dance moves right there on the streets of NYC. Ah well … it’s still fun seeing him in action. Very soon, tho, Benjamin will really have cause to dance and celebrate because he’s about to become a father … and that alone is reason enough to dance in the streets ;D

The Beatles Album Covers Their Three Most Iconic

Released in 1987, the album 'James Taylor Classic Songs' has been an entry point for many people discovering James' music for the first time. It is a wonderful collection of his material, up to that point in his career, and its place in my CD library is still near the top amongst a select few that I categorise as 'most listened to'.
