The City has been Axed!

Today is a sad day. 


Whitney Port, star of the MTV show has confirmed the show will not be returning for a third season. While on The Ryan Seacrest show, when asked about the show she replied "As of right now, it doesn't look like we're doing it anymore". When asked wether the show could move to another network, Port replied "No, not at this point."

I'm gutted. The show finally found it's feet in the second season and I grew to love alot of the characters. Where will we get our Whitney Port fix? Our Erin and Seth fix? Joe Zee? OLIVIA PALERMO? Who am I going to love to hate now? (there's plenty of other people I know) 



Sad times indeed. At least we have Lauren Conrad's show still to look forward to, which has started filming by the way. Happy times. 

The X Factor - Cheryl's Performance


That was bloody amazing! I literally had to stop and sit down and watch and not blink. Fantastic stuff. What do you think?

The X Factor - Live Shows Week Three: The Results



Time for the results show and only one act will be leaving this week.
After amazing performances from Michael Buble and Wor Cheryl Cole, in the bottom two were:
John Adeleye



Treyc Cohen









Louis sent home Treyc.
Dannii sent home John.
Cheryl sent home John.
Simon sent home John.



The right person has left. John was boring and didn't stand out at all. I feel like Wagner should go next. As much as I love his performances, Louis has turned him into a joke on purpose, like he did with Jedward last year. It's not fair to them.

Are you happy with who left and who do you want to leave next week?

Strictly Come Dancing - Week Four: The Results

So we here go with the results! 

In the bottom two were

Peter and Erin
Michelle and Brendan


And the person who was eliminated was...


Again, the right person has left the competition. As much as I love Ann for entertainment value, she should be next. 

Are you happy with who went?

Again make sure you watch Claudia on It Take Two weeknights at 6:30 on BBC2.





Top of The Pops




24/10/10 - 31/10/10



  1. (2)Bruno Mars - Just The Way You Are
  2. (-)The Wanted - Heart Vacancy
  3. (3)Duck Sauce - Barbra Streisand
  4. (1)Cee Lo Green - F**k You
  5. (-)Katy Perry - Firework (No Video Yet)
  6. (9)Mike Posner - Cooler Than Me
  7. (4)Swedish House Mafia - Miami 2 Ibiza (featuring Tinie Tempah)
  8. (8)Tinie Tempah - Written in the Stars (featuring Eric Turner)
  9. (-)Jay Sean - 2012 (It Ain't The End) (featuring Nicki Minaj)
  10. (-)N-Dubz - Best Behaviour

Bruno Mars is back to the top spot. Most likely to Matt Cardle's X Factor Performance of the song. Plenty of new entries. The Wanted storm into 2nd place with their 2nd single 'Heart Vacancy'. Odd times. It's a great song though. Another X Factor influence, Katy Perry landing at 5 without a video! I still can't over that I'm going to see her in person! (Screams).

Other new entries include Jay Sean with 2012 (I can't believe he made a song about it. it's nothing to be happy about really) and N-Dubz new single. The hype has died down for them now I think. All other singles were in the chart last week.

Over in the Albums Chart, Kings of Leon have scored the biggest selling album in it's first week of the year so far! 


The X Factor - Live Shows Week Three







This week it's "Guilty Pleasure's". I'm going to start off by saying this is the most weirdest week ever. Guilty Pleasure's? Really? Oh well.

Anyway let's crack on and look at my best and worst performances.


The Best Performances:



I don't like Cher Lloyd, but this was great. I can't get it out of my head. Good for her. 


Obviously Mary Bryne is in this section. She's amazing, but like I said last week and even a couple of judges this week said the same. 



Another surprise this week. Katie was a great. Again, same as Cher, I don't like her but this was really good. 



The Awful Performances:



I don't know a single person who talks about or even likes John. He should leave soon. Louis is a terrible mentor.

And that's your lot. Make sure you watch the results tonight at 8 on ITV and check back here incase you miss it!

Strictly Come Dancing - Week Four








This week it's either the Tango or the Charleston. Let's take a look at the leader-board.

Scott Maslen & Natalie Lowe – 35
Matt Baker & Aliona Vilani – 35

Pamela Stephenson & James Jordan – 34
Kara Tointon & Artem Chigvintsev - 32
Tina O'Brien & Jared Murillo – 29
Felicity Kendal & Vincent Simone - 29
Patsy Kensit & Robin Windsor – 28
Michelle Williams & Ian Waite - 27
Jimi Mistry & Flavia Cacace – 27
Gavin Henson & Katya Virshilas 23
Ann Widdecombe & Anton Du Beke - 21
Peter Shilton & Erin Boag – 17


As you can see, for the first time since the show started Pamela Stephenson is not at the top of the leader-board. Is this the beginning of the decline? Probably not. She was still amazing though. The usually people are in the usual places. I don't mention them but I think I will this time. Kara Tointon, Tina O'Brien, Felicity Kendla, Patsy Kensit, Michelle Williams and Jimi Mistry are hover around the middle section of the table. None of them have either risen or fell into the bottom during the 4 weeks. They are good, but they dont stand out, although I have to give a special mention to Patsy Kensit. She was amazing tonight. Gavin Henson, Ann Widdecombe and Peter Shilton remain at the bottom. Ann was amazing as ever and Peter Shilton was terrible. Like seriously. Jeez. 

So let's take a look at the best and worst dances of the night. 

Best:

 

Scott Maslen and Natalie Lowe dancing the Tango. Wow. Scott has constantly been great and this is just amazing. Well done him.

 

Matt Baker and Aliona Vilani dancing the Charleston. Again he's been constantly good and this is fantastic. 

 

Pamela Stephenson and James Jordan dancing the Tango. She's just amazing. 


There are no words.

Worst:


Peter Shilton and Erin Boag dancing the Charleston. Awful. 


Special Mention:

Patsy Kensit and Robin Windsor dancing the Charleston. I really liked it, shame the judges didn't so much. 



And that's your lot. Tune in tomorrow night at 7:30 to see who leaves the competition. 

For interviews and backstage gossip, watch Claudia Winkleman on It Takes Two, weeknights at 6:30 on BBC2.

Russell & Katy Brand!

Yay!
Russell Brand and Katy Perry are finally married!


They tied the knot yesterday in a intimate Indian ceremony, arriving on Elephants! decorated with Lanterns and indian music played with sitars, santoor, the tabla, and kettle drums whilst she walked down the isle! 
The ceremony was performed by a christian minister, a good friend of Katy's family. Best friend Rhianna was there watching - how lovely.



Congrats Mr & Mrs Brand, and we hope you're very happy together!
Aww.

Congrats to the legend that is GaGa. I knew the monsters would triumph over Bieber Fever (even though I am both)

Movie Review - Easy A

Easy A
Director: Will Gluck
Starring: Emma Stone, Penn Badgley, Amanda Bynes, Dan Byrd, Thomas Haden Church, Patricia Clarkson, Cam Gigandet, Lisa Kudrow, Malcolm McDowell, Alyson Michalka and Stanley Tucci.
Run Time: 92 minutes
Rating: 5 stars (out of 5)


Plot: After a little white lie about losing her virginity gets out, a clean cut high school girl sees her life paralleling Hester Prynne's in "The Scarlet Letter," which she is currently studying in school - until she decides to use the rumor mill to advance her social and financial standing.


Review: We were pretty excited to see this as soon as we saw the trailer. There's alot of great actors in the movie that we love. For her first starring role, Emma Stone is brilliant. She's funny, witty and so beautiful we are jealous. She's a fantastic actress and I expect great things from her. 


The movie is hilarious and can be emotional at time but it's so good. You really grow to love Emma Stone's character and the majority of the other characters also. The parents, Clarkson and Tucci, made the film. In the few scenes they were in, we were very entertained. 


Go see it. You will love and we can't wait for the DVD!

The 2010-2011 TV Season - The CW orders full seasons.

Skins US of A


Have you ever seen anything so vile. It's horrendous. They've ruined it. I've said it before and I'll say it again, America cannot remake our TV Shows. It just does not work at all. End of.

What do you guys think? 

Someone is trying to save their image.


That's the video for Chris Brown newest song. I've previously posted the song here on the blog. I love it so much. And video? Damn, the man can move. I've never seen him smile so much either. Tiny bit creepy. But good none the less. Well done Mr Brown. You may start to get the majority of people liking you again.
