Many are raving over this summer movie, released May 13th, 2011. Saturday Night Live star and co-writer of Bridesmaids, Kristen Wiig brings the role of Annie to life with her hilarious wit. In this unflinching and somewhat unconventional comedy, Annie turns her role as Maid of Honor into Monster of Honor as she fights with her best friend and bride-to-be Lillian (Maya Rudolph). Annie thinks she has to compete with Lillian’s new rich friend, Helen (Rose Byrne) as the role of best friend, but she learns they can both be a part of Lillian’s life (after a few blowouts).

But this film isn’t just about weddings. Annie’s poor luck in love and business causes her attitude to change toward her friends. She loses her temporary job selling jewelry by harassing the customers, constantly returns to the bed of a jerk (Jon Hamm), gets kicked out of her apartment and has to move back in with her mother (Jill Clayburgh), and pushes away all the good in her life- her best friend, Lillian, and her love interest, Officer Nathan Rhodes (Chris O’Dowd). She keeps her life in a rut by refusing to acknowledge that only she can turn her life around.

Throughout the film, she learns that life doesn’t have to be terrible, even though she screwed up a few times as Maid of Honor: hilarious scenes of her giving her friends food poisoning, getting them kicked off of a plane on the way to the bachelorette party in Vegas, and throwing a hissy fit at the wedding shower (including destroying a giant cookie). Her friend, Megan (Melissa McCarthy), points out that she cares too much about herself. Her speech causes Annie to pull out of her cave and push her way back into Lillian’s life and into Officer Rhodes’ heart. Annie learns to stop being negative and to start looking at the bright side.

Many thought Bridesmaids was going to be a female version of The Hangover, a bachelor party in Vegas filled with roofies, tigers, and a missing groom. But not much is similar. The only major comparison between the two is Megan (Melissa McCarthy), the sister-of-the-groom and female Zach Galifianakis. Both are crazy and don’t seem to hold anything back. Megan steals the show, adding commentary at the oddest of moments that only seem to make it more hilarious.

Trust me–you aren’t going to want to miss this one.

Digital Short: Zach Looks for a New Assistant

I recently stumbled across an” SNL  digital short” that was shown last month and wanted to share it. It features Zach Galifianakis looking for a new assistant and interviewing various  young kids one by one to see if they would work together. Not only is each kid adorable and answers various questions, but some of the topics brought up were: Justin Bieber, feet odor, fart machines, and by far the cutest kid talks about how he can make Zach happy again in such a rough industry of work. Flattery can get you a long way people! Check it all out below!

“Late Night’s” host Jimmy Fallon is at it again creating comedy gold.

Hilariousssss

I don’t know about you, but Charlie Sheen is quickly climbing my personal list of “Actors I Hate.”  It’s hard to believe his show, Two and a Half Men, was TV’s highest-rated sitcom.  According to CNN, the show grossed $400 million in reruns alone during its eight seasons.  Imagine how much it could have grossed if it were funny!

Prior to offering advice to Lindsay Lohan and way before his most recent comments on radio show “Loose Cannons,” Sheen had a track record of damage.  A couple of marriages, his liver, and at least one hotel room are just the tangible examples of Sheen’s destruction.

Now he’s single-handedly gotten his wildly popular show canceled.  The biggest victims in this blunder may be the cast of Two and a Half Men. What’s next for Sheen’s co-star and that pudgy kid?  Does anyone even know their names?

If you haven’t listened to the radio interview that caused the cancellation of his show, you are missing out on some serious ‘LOL’ opportunities.  Sheen’s interview has something for everyone, with tips on beating addiction, being a winner, contract law, and how to be awesome in general.

When discussing  the beating of an addiction, Sheen emphatically states, “The only thing I’m addicted to right now is winning.”  I’m not sure what his definition of “winning” is, but he must be working on a secret Oscar-worthy movie or something.  Either that, or he thinks “jerk” and “winner” are synonyms.

On a more serious note, it is slightly sad to watch yet another big star self-destruct from fame.  He joins the ranks of Lohan and Spears as one of those multi-millionaires that we used to envy.

Instead of dishing out advice to his predecessors, he should follow their lead and disappear for a while.  I don’t think any of us would be too heartbroken if he never returned to the small screen again.

Motivation: some people just don’t have it.  You can call it chronic procrastination, lack of interest, or laziness.  If you’ve ever said one of the following: “I have to wait until the last minute to do my homework because I work better under pressure,” “I just don’t care” or “If I wait long enough, maybe someone else will do it,” you may be suffering from a lack of motivation.

Depending on the nature of the task, it might not take much at all to give you a little jump-start.  Sometimes going for a run can clear your mind and get you pumped up.  If you’re not into exercising, many reality TV shows can be surprisingly inspiring.  One episode of “The Biggest Loser” can convince you that diets are not so bad and most shows on HGTV can have you making an impulse trip to Lowe’s before the credits roll.

For your bigger jobs, ask yourself why you are avoiding them so industriously.  Sometimes it helps to complete the task with a friend.  This works well for working out or dieting.  Of course, friends can often be the source of avoiding disagreeable work.  For example, you are not going to be able to study when your roommates are having a party in the living room.  Try removing yourself from the distracting environment.  Go study at the library.

Tell yourself that the earlier you start an unpleasant task, the earlier you’ll be done.  You will also be able to take more breaks instead of trying to complete the project in one marathon-last-minute-I-should-have-started-earlier run.  You’ll also save yourself a lot of stress.

Chances are, you probably have plenty of motivation if you’re reading this article.  Either that, or you’ve taken the first step in admitting you have a problem.  Way to go!  Now quit surfing the Internet and go start that homework you’ve been putting off all day.

One of the most popular games among college kids is the infamous beer pong. We’ve all done it, do it, or are currently doing it, but many of us don’t realize how accepted this game has become across the nation. The drinking game phenomenon began around the 1980′s, and it has only continued to expand in popularity even after 30 years. It is no surprise why people have grown to love beer pong; it is one of the only games where there is no real loser. While the winner earns bragging rights, the “loser” gets to down multiple cups of beer; isn’t that the ultimate goal of drinking games anyway?

Bars across the nation have listened to the game’s growing buzz and taken advantage of the situation. An article in The New York Times explains how beer pong contests and tournaments are being held as a fun social activity, as well as a way to spark some friendly competition. Leagues have formed for the more serious competitors, and the first World Series of Beer Pong was held in Las Vegas, Nevada in 2006.

A lot has changed since 2006, and it’s time to take the game to the next level. Why simply shoot when you can dunk? For those of you people who love impressing others, here’s your new signature move. Remember, practice makes perfect…kind of.

Yes, you did read that correctly: never quit quitting.  Don’t be “that guy” at the office who has been working in the same place for 27 years and who has been unhappy for 26.9 of those years.  In the words of Peter Gibbons from the 1999 movie Office Space, “So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it.  So that means that every single day that you see me, that’s on the worst day of my life.”  For those of you who have seen the movie, I’m not encouraging theft or fraud whatsoever; I am only discouraging you from trapping yourself into a terrible job.

Of course, there are some qualifiers on that statement.  First of all, you have to give new things some time.  It’s hard to start a new job or project or even a hobby, but in time, you may find that you love it. In the job world, that means at least 6 months.  If you work somewhere with a cyclical aspect to it (seasonal jobs, for example) try to stick it out through at least 2 full cycles.  However, if you feel you have given something a fair chance, don’t be afraid to move on if it’s not for you.

Secondly, always keep enough money in the bank so that you could walk away from any job at any time.  If you are so miserable at work that you cannot wait until you have another job lined up, you don’t want your paycheck to be the only reason to stay.

Finally, before you do anything drastic, keep in mind that “job jumping” can make potential employers hesitant to hire you in the future.  Employers spend tons of money training new employees and they hate to see that cash go to waste on someone who makes swift exits.  Don’t be afraid to be honest in your interview by stating that your last job was not for you.  Make sure you can also illustrate why this new job is different from the last one.

Quitting is underrated.  Do everyone a favor and go find something that makes you happy before you become the Peter Gibbons of your office.

While the world is wasting endless amounts of money on Lady Gaga’s newest single and Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak stepping down leading to an uproar, there’s other business to address…time for this week’s edition of Celeb Shizz.

Lady Gaga releases her newest single,Born This Way on Friday. Although the track is breaking records with being the first single to ever reach #1 on iTunes in a matter of minutes, I’m happy she placed it on her website because after five listens, I still hate it.

I’m all about team Gaga and have a been a fan since day 1, but since when does Lady Gaga produce techno songs? Maybe the girl whose been singing about heartache and boys has finally become a fist pumper.

Even though Lilo could still earn the award of hot mess this week with her Felony charge,This week’s hot mess award goes to Lady “incubation” Gaga.I watched as Lady Gaga arrived in an EGG to the Grammy’s–yes an egg, according to a tweet from her assistant she’s in “incubation”.

I’ve ignored everyone who called her crazy, but this is a whole new level of crazy. She sat in an egg for hours only to not even use it during her snooze-filled perfomance.Sorry Gaga, you’ve lost it just like you lost Album of the Year to Arcade Fire.

Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson-Wentz have filed for divorce which we all knew was bound to happen,come on who would ever imagine Pete and Lip-singer Ashlee Simpson together? Welcome to the divorce world guys. I just hope for the sake of Your child Bronx you take care of your responsibilities.

Now onto a horrendous performance, just when I was starting to get over how horrible James blunt has gotten since his last 1-hit wonder he does this:

Christina Aguilera clearly didn’t rehearse at all and messed up the words to the National Anthem during last night’s Superbowl..twice. As much as everyone is criticizing her for forgetting words to such a popular song, I had more fun watching her performance than Black Eyed Peas & Usher’s halftime show combine; Just for laughs here’s the mistake:

Since it’s hard to post about every single celebrity story, I’ve decided to spotlight a celebrity story that is a clear example of a ’hot mess’ in a new feature called the “Hot Mess Of The Week”.

This Hot Mess of The Week award goes to: Lindsay ‘hide yo neckalace’ Lohan because not only did she recently get out of rehab,but today she will be charged with a grand felony theft for allegedly stealing a $2,500 necklace from a jewelry store in Venice, California.

The store says she took the necklace and never returned it, but Lilo’s responded by saying it was a loan. If convicted she could face up to 3 years in prison. Congrats Lindsay, not only have you lost the right to go into a store without being watched, but you definitely earned the Hot Mess of the Week award and no you can’t steal the award.

Bruno Mars has decided to take a plea bargain following a cocaine possession charge the star was arrested for back in October. Bruno Mars,whose real name is Peter Hernandez, accepted a deal to pay a $2,000 fine, perform 200 hours of community service and attend drug counseling. According to Las Vegas reports, If the chart-topping singer stays out of trouble for 12 months there will be no conviction on his criminal record. Wow can everyone order the Bruno Mars deal in court?

The more I hear about Justin Bieber, the more I wish puberty would just kick in so he’d disappear. The following is yet another example of why I find Justin Bieber ridiculous (queue the beginning of 12-year old girls with pitchforks coming after me now) :
