The Good,the Bad, and the Ugly- better known as the Oscars

As the expected took their bows... you can check about any website to see that predictable outcome... we turned our attentions to the fab fashionistas crossing our TV screens. Just one Coco Note - Kudos to those who won - True we rooted for the adorable Little Miss Sunshine, but Adorable was not the direction the Academy thought best for us...

PS - please - no matter what the views - stop with the political statements!!! We want to get away when go to the movies not watch the news.

Now on to the important matters at hand...

All that Coco Sparkle!!!



Oh Reese! You are the #1 reason we can say, "Yes, you can be sexier after children!" We love the simplicity, stunning, no diamonds necessary for this Gem. She may not have walked away with the little gold man - but she has definitely won our respect and admiration. Can you smile for the camera Ryan?!




Jennifer Lopez

As we mentioned earlier - The Good, The Bad... Jlo- who is telling you look good, darling? Are we expecting???


Penelope Cruz

Penelope... how stunning is done. A nod to the Old School Glamour. We love it!



Gwyneth <span class=

Gwyneth it is so good to see you back and beautiful. We knew you would find that "it" factor again. You are all W-O-M-A-N now darling, and it shows! Lovely.


Nicole <span class=

This is tragic... we love you Nicole... you have always been a fashion icon. Still indisputably beautiful... but you are only human.. we all make mistakes. (Fire the stylist poor dear, and come back stronger.)


Kate <span class=
We know.. we know the Grecian thing is supposed to be the next great ...fill in the blank.. but when it simply doesn't work on a beauty like Kate Winslet..we have to wonder ..hmmm

Till next time, Toodles!

Britney Spears Shaves Head for Drug Test?

http://entertainment.bodogbeat.com/wp-content/uploads/britney_Spears-Crossroads.jpg


No we could not bear to have the horrid pics of Brit sans hair on our page! Everyone has seen it..all we can say - those poor little boys!

Brit is not usually a topic for us.. But we had heard an interesting tidbit - complete Gossip- of course!

Supposedly, K-Fedex had threatened to have Brit drug tested using hair follicles (which can go back ages! Depending on length of hair.) in their custody battle. The shaved head was her reply to his threat.

Now, Brit is no kind (whatsoever) of Coco Anything. But, if that was her reasoning for that beastly cut - it is at the very least understandable. We wish her only the best of luck sorting out her life. We also hope she will soon loose her role as favorite circus sideshow!

Poor thing.

Hugh Grant Splits with Girlfriend

http://dailyblabber.ivillage.com/entertainment/archives/E_HughGrantJemima_325.jpg

According to reports..
Hugh Grant is single yet again. Jemima Khan and he said their goodbyes.

He is also totally adorable. Which translates into he won't be free for long.


We rather think he is a bit like Charles in Four Weddings and Funeral, when we first noticed him. Doomed to a life of "serial monogamy". Poor dear.

Small Sacrifices - Grey's Anatomy

Of course we Tivo'd it. Of course we watched it as it Tivo'd.

Grey's Anatomy... last week McDreamy gave us something to fantasize about when he carried Meredith Grey out of the water. Was he incredibly hot or what?! We thought looked like a front cover of romance novel. His devotion to dear Mer.. his grief.. geez could any S-O ever live up to him?!
The image “http://www.greysanatomyinsider.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/02/greys-anatomy-meredith-05.jpg” cannot be displayed, because it contains errors.Revive Her!

Today, he was a wreck... in a good way. The way we know our S-O's should be if anything happened to us!

If Mer had passed on to the great hospital in the sky, we would have to pass on Grey's Anatomy's future. But the good thing about her stop en route .. Kyle Chandler popped in.. sigh..
Kyle Chandler on Friday Night Lights

But... with all this drama.. a sacrifice had to be made. So, Mer's mom, Ellis Grey is off to the Great Beyond - not a nice person - okay, bye bye.

Two Greys

George is starting to annoy us a bit. He is not as adorable. We hope his recent trip outside of the closet isn't changing how his character is being written.

Now, McDreamy - Geez- when he was in the hospital bed holding Mer.. all we could think is "she is not worthy"...

BUT - the big news with Grey's Anatomy is talk of a spin off with Dr. Montgomery-Shepherd. Addy (Kate Walsh) is very pretty.. but the charisma thing isn't really happening with her. We will have to see what they put out... if it can compare.

Addy deserves some happiness, but it is hard to imagine her holding her own show together. Now... if it was Izzie.. that could get interesting!

Which Grey's Anatomy Archetype are You?


Here are the character of the Girls in Numerology (we found this at AOL) terms:



<span class=

Frank Ockenfels, ABC

Dr. Meredith Grey

The name Meredith Grey is sensitive, promotes cooperation, and makes everyone feel safe. It promotes adaptablity and survival against all odds. The name indicates understanding, compassion, and intimacy, and tends to draw support with subtle persuassion rather then force. We all know Meredith is a surviver after growing up fatherless, losing her mother to Alzheimer's and her boyfriend to his wife (briefly).




Katherine

Frank Ockenfels, ABC

Dr. Isobel "Izzie" Stevens

Isobel "Izzie" Stevens is a name that reflects intelligence, depth, and a quest for knowledge and information. She has courage, determination, perseverance, and a strong competitive streak. Perhaps this is why Izzie tried so hard to save Denny even though it would compromise her reputation as a doctor. However, she is now determined more than ever to become a great surgeon.






<span class=

ABC

Dr. Addison Montgomery-Shepherd

The name Addison Montgomery-Shepherd enhances a sense of adventure, risk-taking, adaptability, and flexibility. The vowels suggest a strong sense of beauty and a good sense of business. As her name suggests, she's a risk-taker (cheating on her husband) and can adapt to many situations (moving cross country).


<span class=

Frank Ockenfels, ABC

Dr. Miranda Bailey

The vowel vibration in Miranda Bailey has courage, determination, perseverance, and a strong competitive streak. It also offers protection, takes away anxiety and fears, and heals the broken-hearted. The base vibration in this name draws respect and admiration. Quite fitting for a woman who is respected by her interns and fellow doctors. Dr. Bailey knows when to put her foot down and when to be comforting.



Sandra

Frank Ockenfels, ABC

Dr. Cristina Yang

The name Cristina Yang induces a sense of freedom, adventure, risks, gambling and daring acts of courage. There is passion and excitement, often pushing the envelope of what is legal. However, the vowels give the impression of weakness, fear of confrontation and lack of confidence. Cristina crossed the line when shielding Dr. Burke's hand tremors from the others but in the end she is passionate about him and about being a surgeon.


We can comfortably say that the two major archetypes are an Izzie and a Meredith.

Meredith tends to keep her cards closer to her vest while Izzie tends to go into emotional land without a pass back. Because of that factor we feel that we fall into Meredith's camp. True - she does whine and is a little self absorbed... but , which would you want as a BFF?

Heaven help you if you are an Addison - how in the world did she get through medical school with all of the boy distractions? Can you say .."issues"!!!

Miranda is amazing except for one issue we have - the working vs. stay at home mom. On top of that, Miranda types are so giving they are the ones that end up with health issues because they put themselves last.

Cristina, Cristina, Cristina... she does seem to have it together, doesn't she? BUT - She is a hard person to like... soberly.. she would be fun at a party. She was initially dismissed by her now fiancee. Charm and charisma seem to be her weakness, both are essential for success.

So - are you an Izzie or a Meredith?

Anna Nicole Smith




Sooo... until now we have been silent about the whole tragic death of party girl.. etc...Anna Nicole Smith. She was certainly not what we look at as the "it" Mom - but we concede, she had that certain "je ne sais quoi" and was never boring.. however, perhaps in some strange way - we have the feeling this entire event was a very sad "meant to be" situation.

We feel so horrible for the poor little girl! It seems very disrespectful to us that Anna Nicole's death has turned into such a circus.

Of course we would like to extend condolences.. but to Who?? other than her daughter? Everyone else seem to be all about fighting over her like she is some kind of territory.

shessh!

Getting Married? America Ferrera

America Ferrera Getting Married or Not???



We love Ugly Betty star, America Ferrera. So cute!!!
Rumors have been going around that her adorable boyfriend, Ryan Piers Williams, proposed on January 7th and the two are quietly planning their wedding...
They've known each other since film school in Cali - fell inlove when she agreed to be in one of his student films.

Que Romantique!!

BUT - now reports from Miss Ferrera's camp are saying "it just isn't so..."

E_AmericaFererra_325.jpg


So - which is it? Who knows... but Ryan is way more precious than the the "romantic interest" on Ugly Betty.

A movie we want to see...

MUSIC & LYRICS a new romantic comedy : A washed up singer (Hugh Grant) is given a couple days to compose a chart-topping hit for an admiring teen sensation. Though he's never written lyrics in his life, he sparks with an offbeat younger woman (Drew Barrymore) with a flair for words...

It sounds sweet and Hugh Grant is just yummy in that quiet British way...

Grey's Anatomy - who said yes???

Patrick Dempsey & Jillian Dempsey

Total congrats!!!

LOS ANGELES -- The wife of Grey's Anatomy star Patrick Dempsey has given birth to twin boys.

Darby Galen and Sullivan Patrick Dempsey were born Thursday in Los Angeles, the actor's representative told People magazine.

Patrick and Jillian Dempsey also have a five-year-old daughter, Talula.

Dempsey, 41, plays Dr. Derek Shepherd, known as Dr. McDreamy to his female colleagues on the hit ABC show.


NOW ON WITH THE REST OF OUR STORY....



Callie and George married in Vegas. We can totally respect trying to snag a good thing quickly while you've got it... but really... she's fire and he (at least with her) is ice. We'll see how O'Callie do together. Still no passion - we think- on his end. We are so used to our men worshipping the ground we walk on... shouldn't every woman have that too?


Cristina said "yes". She is the least likely person to do what is good for her... at least romantically, but, she gets it.

We'll see what happens next...

Why Desperate Housewives isn't soo... you know

DesperateHousewives.abc.com
We remember when we loved this show. We would wait with anticipation for each and every episode... now... well... we wait to see if it changes. It is no longer part of our Coco Scene. Our Tivo now has space for Kyle Chandler (yum!) in Friday Night Lights.

Here is the issue:
While the show deals with the Coco Sparkle in moms, it does not go past the moms social life.


Where are the recitals and afternoons when the children run off to soccer practice? Juggle looking beautiful with playground duty? The first season we had a little bit of that in Felicity Huffman's character, but now... it is about cheating, marriage, and personal error.

Coco children are active in sports and hobbies. They know as do the moms that you either participate or get left behind.

Coco Savvy moms don't have relationship issues, especially, to the naked eye. Yes, the original "Bree" is alive and well and living a Coco Divine life in the suburbs.

Being a Coco Sparkle mommy is more than just being tragically stylish... it is about being a phenom as a mom, planning strategic playdates, doing what it takes to get your child in the inner sanctum of success. We think the Desperate Housewives writing staff has no experience with the Coco Savvy Mom's Saturday... or they would know better.

George Clooney and Pam Anderson???

GcWe ran across this online... all we could think is...


YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING!!!


"This week, rumors began to center on a possible relationship between
George Clooney and Pamela Anderson. As usual, "unnamed sources" reported the two were spotted at the Valley Inn restaurant in Sherman Oaks, where they said they saw Pammie sitting on George's lap.

Supposedly, these sources also revealed that the pair have been walking their dogs together and that the two were "determined to keep this one quiet"."

We have always thought that George was a much more savvy man than to get involved with the train wreck that Pamela Anderson is... poor girl.

Coco's Guilty TV pleasure

So, we are exceptionally cool but even we have that part of us that we don't like to often admit to....TV... ah... can be so private... here are some shows we don't talk to the rest of the world about!

1. Wife Swap
Here is the skinny: "Each week from across the country, two families with very different values are chosen to take part in a two-week long challenge. The wives from these two families exchange husbands, children and lives (but not bedrooms) to discover just what it's like to live another woman's life. It's a mind-blowing experiment that often ends up changing their lives forever. "
© 2006 ABC Inc.

Few programs remind us how absolutely lucky our husbands and children are then a look into how some other families live!!! Our husbands seem to always be just a little sweeter when we watch our Tivo of this program together. We know, we know, you thank God for us everyday! As you should!

ABC, Mondays, 8/7c


2. Medium



A show about a savvy mom who communicates with the dead through her dreams. What's not to like? True, the mom is not particularly stylish.. but even TV isn't perfect!

NBC, Wednesdays, 10/9c

3. The Hills

Image:<span onclick=

Yes, the turbulent life of young, wealthy, LC in LA. Watch as she and her friends spectacular mistakes! Been there, done that ... but it is sooo fun to watch!!!

MTV, Mondays, 10/9c

4. The Real Housewives of Orange County


Real Housewives of Orange County

We totally get this show! You have five families living in a gated community in Orange County California. Who are they? ... a fortysomething former Playboy Playmate who's married to an ex-baseball player; a twentysomething living a lonely life of luxury; and a self-made insurance broker.

Tuesdays, Bravo, 10/9c

5. The Girls Next Door


Hugh Hefner, at the Playboy mansion and life with his three girlfriends there... how much more guilty pleasure can you get?
