We Are The World 25: Making you feel 25x more guilty.
But seriously, amazing effort. Even Celine looked like she was behaving – although I’m sure she was digitally added in to that group scene.
Also: I miss MJ.
Celine: The Movie!

O.M.G. I can barely function today:
CELINE: THROUGH THE EYES OF THE WORLD
There is nothing tacky about this. My god I love this woman!
For a moment there she was almost going to let Michael have the most successful concert movie of 2010 – but then: pow - she dumps this all over us. Sheer brilliance.
I mean, who doesn’t take a full documentary crew with them on vacation, whilst having no intention of making a film out of the footage? Not me.
At first, Celine says the footage was just for her family—a souvenir of their adventures in cities like Dublin, Tokyo, Cape Town and Shanghai. “My mom was on tour with us, and I wanted to have this forever,” Celine says. Then, after seeing what the cameras captured, Celine and her husband [ed: /father], René [Angélil], decided to turn it into a documentary film, Celine: Through the Eyes of the World.
Everyone reading please bow their head in a minute of silent appreciation for René. The man is a visionary – with only the best interests of his wife/daughter/product at heart.
I. cannot. wait. (And thanks to Matt for the heads up!)
Because who doesn’t like free things?It’s that time of year again

And nothing says Merry Christmas quite like cashing in on a 1994(/timeless) hit by releasing a remix version, just in time for the season – with a cover photo taken 15 years and pounds ago. Oh yes, I went there.

Why do I never get invited to these?

So funny! Go Sydney – and wtf Melbourne, keep up!
My greatest fear used to be seeing myself in the random footage of ‘fat people walking around malls’ used whenever there’s a story about obesity on the news. Now it’s being somewhere when a flash-mob strikes – and not knowing the routine. Because I would totally try and join in and probably end up ruining the whole thing and/or setting myself on fire.
On the other jazz-hand, I’m so grateful I wasn’t part of this enthusiastic looking Microsoft Retails Store “flash mob”:
Lame to the power of lame.
Got Sand?

Is it just me, or is everyone a little more bitter than usual (see comments) at the moment? Not that I mind – I’m finally starting to feel part of society. Regardless, this YouTube is hilarious (and of course not true of any pregnant women I know, or have known!)
I’m probably as guilty as the women-with-child though. Whenever I meet someone having a baby I find myself diving head-first into all manner of pregnancy-related cliche’s and questions that I probably could figure out the answer to by myself.
Next time I find myself about to squeal “OMG how exciting!!” I will remember this song and do my best Anna Wintour impersonation.
