Why I Love Adele: Her Voice and Soul
My love affair with Adele began later than everyone else’s because, well, I’m always tardy for the party. First time I saw her was at some awards show last year singing “Chasing Pavements.” I was all “Who is this? She’s kinda tight.” But she fell off my radar for a …

The Kardashians Wish You A Merry Christmas
I came across this Gawker post talmbout the recently released The Kardashian family Christmas photo. So I had to show it to y’all. The Kardashians are a relatively attractive family. And yes, they got a lot cuter from plastic surgery. BUT… There’s just so many things that don’t quite curl all …
