Ashley Tisdale Heads Back to the Salon
I guess Ashley Tisdale didn’t like her shorter locks that she got at another Los Angeles salon yesterday. She was photographed heading to a different salon but for the second time in two days. I really like her hair. I think long hair suits Ashley best and she has some gorgeous highlights!
Check out Ashley’s shoes and hat in the picture below.

Jonas Brothers Get Mobbed in Toronto
The Jonas Brothers came out of their hotel room in Toronto to a mob of fans. What’s new eh? They do look a little glassy-eyed and have that “deer in the headlights look”, so maybe it was early in the morning, or maybe there were a ton of fans and they were in shock.
The JBs have a July 4th concert in Toronto at the Molson Amphitheater. Anyone here going?
On another note, their body guard is HUGE!! LOL

Artist Profile: Nico Vega
I discovered Nico Vega earlier this year (hat tip Jacob Nicolas) and upon first listen, and was immediately enchanted by the rockin’ infections rhythms and the soulful throaty voice of band vocalist Aja Volkman. With only one EP and a few singles to their name (and a full LP due in the fall), Nico Vega are the underground band to watch for 2008.
The trio – vocalist Aja, guitarist Rich and drummer Dan – draws inspiration from a lost friend for… More »

Angelina Jolie: Assassin VS Humanitarian
I’ve been eagerly reading everyone’s reviews of Wanted and I’m glad so many of you enjoyed it. Some of you mentioned that you had trouble enjoying it due to the violence. I understand, and it’s a personal matter. I actually really enjoy violent action movies (and scary horror movies), not constantly, but I do like them very much. I also always loved playing the more violent video games. But I appreciate that some people prefer… More »

Canadian Idol 6 Top 20 Performances Part 1
It’s time for the Top 20 performances on Canadian Idol. Last week, four people were sent home after the season’s first results show. I hope the eliminations scared some people into bringing more to their performances this week since I thought the Top 24 shows (view part 1 and part 2 recaps) were uninspiring, for the most part. Mark Day sang “In Love with a Girl” and I was disappointed by how much his voice was drowned out… More »
