Clinton Calls Herself A Loser
2008-04-02 18:15:00
So in case you haven't heard, Hillary Clinton compared herself to Rocky Balboa yesterday while addressing a meeting of the Pennsylvania AFL-CIO."Let me tell you something, when it comes to finishing a fight, Rocky and I have a lot in common. I never quit. I never give up. And neither do the American people," Clinton said.MISS TLC SAYS: Yeah yeah yeah, Rocky had heart, but he still lost. Case closed. PS - Isn't it interesting though how Creed was granted a "controversial split decision" win at the end of the first "Rocky" movie... hmm... was Hil trying to say something a lot deeper than we all realized at first? Is she trying to say she already knows Obama will be granted the nomination, but that the decision will be controversial in nature because technically she believes the American public are still split on their choice? I'm just sayin...

Am I Getting A Rebate Check?
2008-04-02 17:36:00
From Yahoo! MarketWatch...Six Reasons You Shouldn't Count on Rebate Check Before It's Cutby Marshall LoebSunday, March 30, 2008provided by MarketWatchMost Americans will soon receive rebate checks from the IRS worth anywhere between $300 to $1,200 or more, and many businesses have already launched marketing campaigns hoping to lure those potential customers.Yet, many folks will not be eligible for a check at all and could end up in a bind if they've already hit the mall and put extra charges on their credit cards, counting on the rebate cash.The global tax firm of Grant Thornton says if you belong to any of the following six categories of taxpayers, you should think twice before charging a purchase with plans to pay it off with that "free" government money. You may not be eligible for a rebate -- or at least not for a full or timely one -- if:1. You owe the tax man money. The IRS has acknowledged that it will deduct from all rebate checks any federal tax debt. The agency will als...

In case you haven't heard yet, Melody Ehsani is doing the damn thing. Based out of L.A., this steady-on-the-come-up designer has recently made accessory pieces for none other than Alicia Keys and Erykah Badu.

Remy Ma Goin' To Jail
2008-03-27 18:03:00
Remy Ma Found Guilty In Shooting Of Friend, Faces Up To 25 Years In Jail By Jayson RodriguezRemy Ma was found guilty on two charges of assault Thursday (March 27) in Manhattan Supreme Court. She faces up to 25 years if convicted on both counts. The rapper, 26, wiped away tears as the verdict was read, then "wailed loudly and sobbed openly" as she left the courtroom in handcuffs, according to The Associated Press. The charges stem from an incident that occurred last July when the rapper and Makeda Barnes-Joseph argued after leaving a mutual acquaintance's birthday party. Remy Ma alleged Barnes-Joseph stole several thousand dollars from her purse that night; Barnes-Joseph was shot after the two struggled in her car. Remy Ma fled the scene in an SUV but crashed nearby. Neither the money nor the weapon have been found. Charges of tampering and gang assault, related to the case, were thrown out, the rapper's attorney, Ivan Fisher, told MTV News on Thursday. Sentencing for the case is sc...

Miss TLC's Album Covers Class
2008-03-27 16:43:00
I've seen some crazy ish out there lately, so I just felt the need to approach the subject.*********************This is a hot cover:It grabs the buyer's attention and is bright and sexy and represents the style of the music on that particular album.*********************This is not:It just scares the buyer away and could possibly give some children nightmares (and not just because it kinda looks like Michael).*********************This is really cool, but she seems to love that "look at my stick thin legs" pose and the airbrushing of such a stance, so she should probably step up her variety:For instance, another album photo leaked this week (I guess it's from inside the liner notes) and it's TERRIBLY fake:And here are two more of her covers:Don't people realize they need to just step AWAY from the Photoshop sometimes???Like I just received the current issue of my Bunny Shop catalog (stop, you know I love the Playboy brand) and THIS was on the cover:HER FACE DOESN'T EVEN LOOK LIK...

Ms. Dupre (and I don't mean Janet)
2008-03-27 03:44:00
I know a lot of you have been asking me for my take on the whole Eliot Spitzer scandal. Truthfully, it blew up so quickly, and became such a media clusterf*ck, that I just couldn't stomach posting something more about it myself at the time. But now that the smoke has cleared somewhat, I'll give you a taste of the Miss TLC take. In a nutshell:1. I don't think Ashley Alexandra Dupre is cute at all. She's quite plain looking.2. Eliot's wife was a complete fool for standing next to a man who chose to risk his family's safety (requesting sex without a condom from PROSTITUTES) all for the sake of some new, young ass.3. Ashley's MySpace song S-U-C-K-E-D (and I don't mean in the good way that she got paid thousands for during her day job).4. Eliot had it coming to him. His whole purpose in life was to take people down. Well now he got his just desserts and got taken down himself by a 22 year old Jersey Shore escapee. Yeck.5. Ashley's songs were terrible.6. Joe Francis is not...

One of my most favorite sites posted this about Paris Hilton's new show line, and I must say I 100% agree. All of my loyal readers know I LOVES me some shoes (in case this is your first time here, check the slideshow above), but you couldn't pay ME to wear any of that pinch your toes, instant blisters, smells like cheap plastic crap. Granted, I have a ton of shoes, and they range in price. So I am not a shoe snob... well to an extent. I'm just saying that you don't need to pay $500 on every pair to look fly. I have hot shoes that were $50 and $60. It's the look and feel that really matters, and I do NOT do tacky. Those my friend, are TACK-Y. Yeck.

Making Fun of a Teenager's Engagement Ring Size Is Never Funny
2008-03-26 22:59:00
Everyone is clamoring over the rumors that Jamie Lynn Spears is currently wearing an engagement ring. First of all, she's preggers, so if it makes her (or her babydaddy) feel better to get engaged (or at least just act like it), then more power to them. Secondly, the fact that media outlets are now recruiting jewelers to appraise the thing over email is sick and twisted. Sadly enough, I'm serious. Check this out:Jamie Lynn's Ring : Just What Does It Mean?Jamie Lynn Spears amped up her own engagement rumors Tuesday by showing off a sparkly rock during a Kentwood, La., coffee run. But while she took no pains to hide her blinged-out hand, the 16-year-old wouldn't address reports that her boyfriend, Casey Aldridge, 18, proposed?even as one of his cousins confirmed the betrothal to Us Weekly. (That's one less family member to put on the guest list.) Of course, if it is an engagement ring, she's wearing it on the wrong hand. But those Spears sisters always have done things...uh, ...

New DeNiro/Pacino movie... oh, and 50 too.
2008-03-24 23:03:00
You've seen the Vibe cover.You've heard 50's shout outs to Bobby, Al, and Donnie on his latest mixtape.Well here's the full trailer for "Righteous Kill" (to be released on September 12, 2008).MISS TLC SAYS: Hmm. I'm a big DeNiro fan, but I think that pairing him with Pacino is always a novelty move. It's as if the sheer star power of the two of them together emanates off the screen in such a way that it overpowers the actual movie and literally blinds you from seeing the characters at hand. Also, I think Pacino is way past his prime and just seems like a caricature of his former self at this point. That being said, I did like "Heat" (just didn't love it), so I might really like this one as well. The soundtrack definitely seems cool though. And besides DeNiro and Pacino, John Leguizamo, Carlo Gugino, Donnie Wahlberg, and 50 Cent are also in this flick so it might just be really good.

Starbucks Tips
2008-03-24 16:56:00
In case you haven't heard about this unique case yet...Starbucks Ordered to Pay Millions in Tips By CHELSEA J. CARTER,APPosted: 2008-03-21 11:26:23SAN DIEGO (March 20) - A Superior Court judge on Thursday ordered Starbucks to pay its California baristas more than $100 million in back tips that the coffee chain paid to shift supervisors.Saying baristas were entitled to $86 million in back tips plus interest, San Diego Superior Court Judge Patricia Cowett also issued an injunction preventing Starbucks' shift supervisors from sharing in future tips. Cowett said the practice was a violation of a state law prohibiting managers and supervisors from sharing in employee tips. Starbucks Corp. spokeswoman Valerie O'Neil said the company planned an immediate appeal, calling the ruling "fundamentally unfair and beyond all common sense and reason." The lawsuit was filed in October 2004 by Jou Chou, a former Starbucks barista in La Jolla, who complained shift supervisors were sharing in employe...

"21": The Movie
2008-03-12 16:29:00
MISS TLC SAYS: I've been waiting for this movie to be released for quite some time. The backstory (for those who don't know) is that an excerpt of the book this movie is based on, "Bringing Down The House" was published in Playboy magazine about 5 years ago. Kevin Spacey read the excerpt (you know, because he only reads Playboy for the articles...), and instantly put wheels in motion to arrange for him to buy the option to eventually turn the story into a movie. The book, written by Ben Mezrich, was originally released in September 2003, and I naturally ran to get a copy right away (because you know... I love any and all movies and books about gambling, Vegas, and extremely intelligent people). [And as you can see on the right below, it's always been listed in my "recommended books" list.] The story itself (about a team of M.I.T. students who trained to become expert card counters before taking Vegas by storm, gradually winning millions on blackjack), has been told many time...

Dunkin' Donuts Is A Dunce
2008-03-11 20:06:00
Look, I understand why many people are against Starbucks. "They represent corporate America, their prices are too high, they don't give you enough in your cup, they have silly names for their drinks and sizes, they don't like the coffee, blah, blah, blah." But I happen to be a huge fan of Starbucks. I like their espresso-based drinks, and I don't mind the price. Maybe it's because I would never imbibe anything that came off a truck or outdoor stand, or that I don't trust what goes on behind the counter at many delis and neighborhood bodegas, or that I like a wide variety to choose from everyday (even though I most often order the same thing). Or maybe it's just that I GOTS the money, so I can spend it however I choose. ;)Either way, Dunkin' Donuts has really been trying for the past couple years to take over Starbucks' marketshare by poking fun at their silly names for drinks, and their inflated prices in several commercials. Here's the thing though... Dunkin' Donut...
