Hi everyone!!!! HAPPY YEAR OF THE BUNNY 2011!!!!! I hope everyone had a wonderful New Years Holiday!
I got to go to Chicago over for the New Year and hang out with my sister. It was wonderful to hang out with here there!! I hadn’t been to Chicago in SO many years!!! While I was hanging out in Los Angeles for Christmas, I went to my favorite outdoor shopping mall, The Grove, which is about 10 min from my house. And I saw Megan Fox with her boyfriend and his kid!!!!
Anyway, it is not only a new year, but a new decade!!! and I couldn’t be MORE excited!!!
Now let’s get to the gossip!
First of all, some great news in Hollywood for quite a few actors and actresses...
Natalie Portman recently announced that she is pregnant AND engaged to the father of her baby, choreographer Benjamin Millepied, who she met and worked very closely with for the filming of her latest hit movie "Black Swan". Now I am SURE that you guys must have heard right now, but "Black Swan" is supposedly one of the biggest award contenders for this year, and many people say that Natalie Portman is going to be the one walking away with the "Best Actress" Oscar on the day of the Academy Awards. Well, I must tell you, I FINALLY had the opportunity to go see the film this past weekend, and she does a PHENOMENAL job in that film! The film itself is, quite honestly, a bit creepy...BUT it will most definitely be a huge contender for many awards this year.

Another film that seems to be getting a VERY BIG buzz for during the award season is "Social Network". In fact, many people are saying that this movie will be the one to walk away with "Best Picture". Well, in my opinion, it will probably be a tie between this film AND "Kings Speech"...and MAYBE the latest film from Oscar winner Jeff Bridges, "True Grit".
Another film that has been getting quite a bit of attention is the latest film from Mark Wahlberg, "The Fighter", which is a project that he has been trying to make happen for the past several years. Not only is Mark Wahlberg amazing in the film, but I hear that both Christian Bale AND Amy Adams do an incredible job as well.

Ok, guys...ENOUGH of the excitement having to do with awards season!!
There IS other excitement going on in Hollywood....
Another family that is expecting...Victoria Beckham is FINALLY expecting another child!!! She has been waiting for this for quite a while and rumor has it that both her and her famous hubby, David Bekham are hoping that the FINALLY have a little girl to add the family.
Another Hollywood star that is expecting...Owen Wilson is going to be a daddy!!!! His girlfriend Jade Duellare is expecting their first baby, and it seems that the actor is absolutely thrilled!!!

Finally, SPIN magazine recently decided to conduct a survey on the best music over the past 25 years, and guess who won the top spot?????
MADONNA!!!! Amazing!! The magazine conducted a survey among about 750,000 readers, and Madonna was the Best Artist. Best Album was won by rock band Green Day, and Eminem was named Best Hip Hop Artist.

Well, everyone, I don’t know about you, but I am ready for a KICK ASS wonderful new decade!!! let the fun begin!!!!
