Christina Hendricks, The New Face of Vivienne Westwood Jewelry

christina hendricks

Va Va Voom! That is the best way we know to describe Christina Hendricks, the sultry redheaded actress who is best known for her role on the hit television series Mad Men. In addition to being a key character on a show that has experienced such runaway success, Christina can also now celebrate her new role as the face of Vivienne Westwood Jewelry. Apparently, this is more meaningful to Christina than just being tapped to represent any old line of bling. In fact, she has been a fan of Vivienne Westwood’s designs for many years.

In a recent interview with PEOPLE Magazine, Christina explained that she loves Vivienne Westwood’s unique blend of romantic and hard-edged themes in her designs. “I love that she literally dressed the Sex Pistols and has bustles and corsets and things that one would never expect a designer to be able to do all at once,” said Christina in the interview.

What’s first for Christina Hendricks as the new face of Vivienne Westwood jewelry? Well, she recently modeled pieces from Westwood’s new line of palladium baubles. The title of the collection is “Get a Life.” The collection features a number of pieces that range quite a bit in terms of the statements that they make. There is, for example, a pair of simple hoop earrings that feature tiny acorn charms. There is also a necklace that bears the same small charm as a pendant.

On the other hand, the collection features a large abstract heart pendant that is strung on a very thick chain. That’s not all. For the real rock princess, there is also a palladium tiara made out of leaves! Of course this tiara looks absolutely stunning when it has Christina’s scarlet locks woven through it.

We look forward to Christina’s next appearances in Westwood bling.

Glee’s “Landslide” lyrics have people wondering what exactly does the song “Landslide” mean in the Glee storyline of Brittany and Santana?

Watch the Glee video of Landslide, sung by guest star Gwyneth Paltrow, with Brittany and Santana.

Santana, it seems, wants to sing “Landslide,” by Fleetwood Mac, to express her feels toward Brit. Later, Santana exposes her love for Brittany, but alas no lesbian relationship is in the cards because Brittany is with Artie.

MTV News has the scoop on what Fleetwood Mac’s Stevie Nicks shared about the meaning of Landslide in 1998′s VH1′s “Storytellers:”

Nicks explained, “Everybody, everybody seems to think that I wrote this song about them — everybody in my family, all my friends, everybody. And my Dad, my Dad did have something to do with it, but he absolutely thinks that he was the whole, complete reason that it was ever written.”

Nicks also explained how she wrote the song: “[Bandmate] Lindsey [Buckingham] and I went up to Aspen and we went to somebody’s incredible house and they had a piano and I had my guitar with me and I went in their living room, looking out over the incredible Aspen sky and I wrote “Landslide.”

Jeremy Bernard

The White House social secretary is, for whatever reason, has always been a job held by a woman. But now the first ever man has been given the important role as the social gatekeeper and planner for the president  and his name is Jeremy Bernard. So who is Jeremy Bernard? And what else makes him his placement in this role historic?
Most recently Jeremy Bernard was the senior adviser to the U.S. ambassador to France. He also was a big part in  raising money for Barack Obama’s presidential campaign in Southern California. And you know what Southern California has? Movie stars and lots of them. And a large percentage of them were Obama supporters, so odds are we’ll be seeing just as much if not more players from tinsel town at White House events. The other thing that makes him historic in this role. He is an openly gay man. And this isn’t the first time Obama made a history with his filling of this role. Desiree Rogers – Obama’s first social secretary – was the first African American to hold the job.
Obama said of the naming of the new role, “Jeremy shares our vision for the White House as the People’s House, one that celebrates our history and culture in dynamic and inclusive ways.  We look forward to Jeremy continuing to showcase America’s arts and culture to our nation and the world through the many events at the White House.”

“I am deeply humbled to join the White House staff as Social Secretary and support President Obama and the First Lady in this role,” Jeremy Bernard said.  “I have long admired the arts and education programs that have become hallmarks of the Obama White House and I am eager to continue these efforts in the years ahead.”

So, you Hollywood A-listers, you better pack your bags, looks like you may be getting an invite to the White House soon!

Big Brother 12 Episode 17 aired on August 15, 2010, revealing who the new HOH is as well as who the two nominees for eviction are this week.

August 15, 2010 Sunday was Big Brother 12 episode 17, and CBS viewers were finally told who won the HOH competition at the end of the last episode. It was another endurance challenge (the third of Big Brother 12), and again CBS planned to have it come to an end on the internet live feeds. That meant viewers had to wait for Sunday to find out the HOH as well as the new HOH nominations.

Big Brother 12 August 12 HOH Competition

The HOH competition this week was a version of a ropes course, with all of the houseguests tied to a rope, which was tangled and knotted along a course. The object was to simply untie all the notes and make their way through the course while connected to the rope. It wasn’t as easy as it sounded, and several houseguests weren’t intelligent enough to figure out how to work the knots.

Brendon jumped out to an early lead, with Lane and Hayden not too far behind him. Ragan, Britney, Enzo, and Kathy could not figure out what was going on, and performed terribly again. It’s really hard to foresee any of those four actually winning an HOH competition, because Ragan always quits, and the other three have never even come close to winning one.

The lead progressed for Brendon, and he flat out blew everybody out of the water. Maybe he has extra energy from having the other houseguests dupe him into believing Rachel was staying in the house, but he went on a tear all the way to victory.

Brendon became the sixth HOH in the Big Brother 12 house. He then chose Ragan, Britney, and Matt as the three Have Nots for the week, and Britney was not happy about it. Do any viewers think this should have come as a surprise to her?

Big Brother 12 Episode 17 Recap

Immediately after Brendon won the HOH, the rest of the houseguests started second-guessing the decision to vote out Rachel first. Enzo was especially frustratedabout it, because he had been fighting to evict Brendon first. Britney then took over the role of house crier, finding anyone she could to cry to about thinking she was going home next.

It seemed that both Ragan and Britney finally woke up and realized that they were in a game though, and maybe they will actually make game-affecting decisions this next week instead of just sitting in the house letting things happen around them. Meanwhile, Enzo and Hayden started talking out loud about trusting Matt less than Brendon, showing that there were cracks forming in the Brigade alliance.

The HOH competition of the week was held on August 12. In the task, all the houseguests were tied with a rope, which was tangled and knotted along a course. The objective was to untie the notes of rope and make their way (while being connected to the rope) through the course. The competition didn’t go too easy because houseguests weren’t good at knots.
