The news has been killer the last couple of days…and darn it if it’s made me actually go out and find stories and write about them. About real things. Could it be possible? I guess you can see what I’m really like this way too. I hope I don’t lose too many readers showing my snarky side.

I was reading a list of banned words for 2010 (I am so not used to typing that yet. I am sure you will find me messing it up many times.) over at Time and I thought I would tell you which words that may or may not be a part of their list that I am going to try not to use in 2010. But who am I kidding? I will probably utter them tomorrow already. I am bad at resolutions of any kind. I am a rebel and have to do the things I say I’m not going to do. So here is the list of words I don’t want to use in 2010 but probably will…

1. App – Really people….do I have an iPhone? No. I don’t need to know about the latest app. Well of course if it’s Dion Roy’s though. I want to get his app. See, I already said it and I didn’t even get through the darn post!

2. Sexting – I mean I never really ever use this word but it just in general makes me want to cringe. I hate when people tell me they are sexting. It has dirty written all over it.

3. Friend as a verb – You know what I’m talking about. ‘Did you friend me over at Facebook?” That’s how everyone uses it. I hate it when people say that. Now, friend me over at Facebook because you know you want to. Another one that I totally failed at!

4. Bromance – 2009 was the year of the bromance, I hear it and think of Brody Jenner right away. I think that this is honestly one word that I can commit to not using ever again.

5. Chillaxin’ - I really want to know what is up this world in general. And you know I can’t say the word, chillaxin’, without making my head go funny and making my hand look like it’s scratching a record. I really don’t need to be seen doing that at all.

6. Tweet – I think this has to be the most popular word of the decade. And really you can’t expect me to not use this word at all. That’s like John Mayer’s digital cleanse. It just won’t happen. Sorry.

7. Stimulus – I am not sure what stimulus they are talking about. Okay, I do. I am super sick of hearing about the stimulus packages everyone is getting. Maybe it ’s a case of the jealousies.

8. In these Economic times… – Stop telling me how messed up I am because of these times. I don’t want to know that I am just a loser and I’m not making that much money. Here is another one I can commit to not using in 2010.

Here is my list. You can take it or leave it or use it against me. I will not accept blackmailing though. That would be a different post entirely.

The Hills premieres tomorrow and everyone is talking about the addition to Kristen Cavallari and how much she will be earning for this season’s stunt. Now we all remember that Lauren Conrad was paid $125,000 an episode so who on the cast even gets paid near that amount? Find out below.

— Kristin Cavallari, $90,000
— Audrina Patridge, $100,000
— Lauren “Lo” Bosworth, $100,000
— Heidi Montag, $100,000
— Spencer Pratt, $65,000
— Brody Jenner, $45,000

I wish that I could get an easy job like this. Especially for $90,000 an episode. Where do I sign up?

You can say what you want about The Hills but this is one damn fine cast picture. I don’t see anyone that isn’t good looking in this picture. The new season premiere is next Monday, April 6th.

“I actually thought last season was going to be my last,” [Lauren says]. “[But] the producers wanted to hopefully give the show some sort of closure and needed one more season. I didn’t have that much conflict in my life over the last few months.” She adds, “I think I only cry in one episode.”

I wonder how Heidi Montag’s pregnancy will fit into the story line?

I have to give props to the photographer of these shots though. The guys Spencer Pratt, Justin Bobby and Brody Jenner all look very hot. This season should be an exciting one. I’ll miss it not being on since it was one of my guilty pleasures.

Here we have “celebrity couple” Brody Jenner and Playmate Jayde Nicole. Maybe they already broke up. That isn’t the point. The point is the dress! I mean, my God – do you see it? Oh, sorry, you can’t really escape the neon pink glow of that thing, now can you? This is the type of skanky dress with shotty structure an Evening Gown Barbie would have in the 80’s, and even back then I’d look at the construction and frown and sigh! I mean, maybe it’s glamorous for a Playmate…that’s…her ’style’. But oh boy, it’s skankalicious!

Who made this awful dress? Even better, the inside is silver. Some clothing construction student in high school might have made this, who knows. But when you have money, the idea is that you can spend it to look good, not tacky and cheap.,  Photo from Splash News.

I have been watching The Hills…(hey I just noticed I have the same laptop as Lauren Conrad…OMG!!!) I still think that Lauren Conrad and Brody Jenner totally need to get it on. But, who knows that might happen ‘off camera’ and we just don’t know about it.

Lauren thought she would show In Touch magazine the house that we all helped pay for…with their huge salaries! I love that house. I would like to be able to say that I have a guest house. I would really just like to be able to say I have a house…

I saw this commercial on TV last night and I had to share it. I honestly think this commercial that Lauren Conrad and Brody Jenner is almost better than all the acting in The Hills combined. AND, it features a song by Warrant. Who could ask for more?
