Samia “Getz” the Reality of Bachelor Life

25 Mar

What happens when you go inside the bedroom of a Bachelor(ette)? A party ensues. Bachelor Pad winner Natalie Getz is the kind of girl that you’d want at your Bachelorette Party – fun, loud, energetic, single, fashionable. This wasn’t a normal closet visit – this one involved beverages and dancing and all sorts of things you only expect at Las Palmas night club. We bonded over our mutual former co-worker – (shout-outs to Chris Harrison), mutual fashion/social elite friend (shout-out to Dee Murthy), and the fact that she had a stuffed bear on her bed (he was adorable.) She had me try on her shoes. We danced in front of a mirror. We gossiped. Discussed our love for the fashionably affordable Michael Antonio footwear. And then…we parted ways. Another day on the job, another 1-hour-friendship to blog about.

When Heidi Klum Throws a Party…

4 May

She has LG foot the bill.

At least that was the case on Tuesday April 28th… as LG and Heidi teamed up to launch their Klum-backed “Rumor 2” cell phone.

I covered the party for TV Guide…held at the Andaz Hotel on Sunset. The last time I was there for a party, there were Ed Hardy brand bottles of water. This time? Something fancy in a glass bottle.

Celebrity observations? Heidi Klum’s rock of a wedding ring…enormous. Beautiful. Shiny. She doesn’t look pregnant. But she is. She hasn’t straight up said it, but Seal confirmed it someone recently, and Project Runway star Christian Siriano confirmed it for me that night (FYI, he’s doing a line of maternity wear, and of course, has given some threads to the woman he refers to as “Tranny Klum.”)
Christina Aguilera… total star power. You know you’re famous when you can walk by all the tv/print media, and no one dares to even ask a question for fear that you’ll snap at them for even having the audacity to try.
Vanessa Hudgens. Famous for being Mrs. Zac Efron. Pretty. Arrived with HSM bestie Ashley Tisdale.
Jennifer Love Hewitt and Jamie Kennedy. Yes, they did press. Surprising for a celebrity couple. Though to be honest, think their star power doubled once they started dating. America is fascinated with celebrity relationships. And well, their relationship is interesting. They seem to totally be in sync. In a weird way. In a Taco-Bell-feeding sorta way.
Twilight’s Peter Facinelli? Adorable. He even suggested he’d hang out with Twilight fans camping outside the set in Vancouver, and make smores with them.
Bachelor/Hollywood 411’s host…Chris Harrison at the party?! Definitely the highlight of my night.

Since the theme of the night was a “Rumorous Night,” the theme of my piece was… what else? Rumors. Though not everything made the TV cut, here are the highlights:
