No healthcare for muah 'til 2011...


Oh the life and trials of being a twentysomething. Thanks to our country's fabulous healthcare system and our generation's current employment situation (or lack there of), I now find myself without health insurance. No doctor appointments, no prescriptions, nada.

And I KNOW I'm not alone. Everyone who turns 23 before 2011 (and who does not have a full-time job that provides healthcare) will find themselves in the same boat due to the fact that Obama Care does not kick in until January 1, 2011.

What can we do in the mean time? Beg your doc to stock you up on your prescriptions and avoid the emergency room at all costs, or pay out of your own pocket.

Always,
j.cole (wish I was still in college!)

Kid Cudi is BA


Check out Kid Cudi's recent interview in Complex. I'd reiterate details below like usual, but pretty much every other word is an expletive...so we'll let Cudi do the talking.

He mentions a new daughter, an overcome Cocaine addiction and why Wale isn't really that cool. I kind of thought he sounded like a psycho at first. But after reading the interview in it's entirety, I respect him as an artist. He says his new album is different- "deeper and darker."

"I'm not holding back," he says. "I just want to grow creatively, all over, as a human being."

Lindsay Lohan in Rehab 'til 2011

Despite her hope of a reduced one month sentence, Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Elden S. Fox sentenced Lindsay Lohan to rehab until 2011 on Friday.

Lohan burst into tears upon hearing the news, citing that additional months in rehab will be an added financial hardship to her family. I'm sure her crying had nothing to do with the fact that Fox specifically ended her sentence after New Years to avoid any unnecessary temptation for the actress, or that any plans for her to make a Hollywood come back have been completely shut down.

Maybe she will finally learn...

The Superficial is an a-hole sometimes.

Evidence:

1. J.Lo has had twins. Leave her thighs alone.

2. Lady Gaga finally doesn't look like a starved child.

3. Um.

4. Dang.

Alright that's all I got...because this one is awesome.

3. Camel. Best when you're sad. :(
J says: "This yoga pose helps open up your lungs so you can breathe deeply, which increases oxygen levels in your blood. That elevates your mood and makes you feel better."

My personal favorites are Downward-Facing Dog and Child's Pose; totally classic and always just what I need first thing in the morning. Seriously...yoga+Starbucks=keys to a day's success!

Xtina files for divorce


Okay, so I'm officially really sad. If Christina didn't have real love, who does? All those crying episodes on E! about how great her hubby was...and now she files for divorce? This world is in shambles.

Obviously, The Superficial has the scoop...and comments about her boobs. Really guys?

Boyce Avenue is awesome

If you haven't heard of them, you're hearing now. My all time favorite cover band, Boyce Avenue, redoes pop songs like no one else. A good friend shared a new song rendition with me and I immediately felt the need to share. Enjoy :)




And if you haven't heard their version of Umbrella, you should get on that pronto.

Always,

Demi to Ashton: It's only OK to sleep with other women if I participate.


So NOW we all know why Ashton and Demi are so happily married. Their sex life is absolute madness.

In a recent interview with Star Magazine, Ashton's purported mistress, Brittney Jones, claims that Ashton and Demi have and open relationship and welcome threesomes. In fact, she said that Demi was only mad about this last instance because she wasn't able to participate.

"He said they share women, but he isn't supposed to go off and sleep with women on his own," she said. "He said Demi had to be there and that Demi likes to pick the girls out."

She also went on to say that it is nothing out of the ordinary for the Hollywood couple.

"Ashton said he and Demi have an open relationship and have threesomes often," she said. "I didn't feel at all like he had just cheated on his wife. It felt normal and OK."

The couple has just experienced their fifth wedding anniversary. Read the full story here.
