Best Medicine

These two clips made me laugh so hard, I teared up. The first features Maya Rudolph doing impressions on Ellen. It was so funny, I tweeted the Ellen Show to thank them for making my day.



The second video is something Mad Men fans (with a sense of humor) will appreciate. A day after Megan performed "Zou Bisou Bisou," everyone was singing it--and the parodies, naturally, followed.



Hope these cracked you up, even just a little bit. Happy weekend!

Notorius P.I.G.

I've been remiss when it comes to reading InStyle, and only found out yesterday that the diva of divas, Miss Piggy, actually did an eight-page fashion spread for them in November!

What an absolutely brilliant idea! My favorite photo has got to be the closeup of her legs and feet wearing Brian Atwood platforms.

In an interview, Brian Atwood was asked about creating heels for Miss Piggy. His reply: "Oh my god. SUCH a diva. Her handlers… Before I even started the first sketch, I had a list of what she likes, photographs of her feet in certain shoes….I’m serious. Literally, we had a whole sheet--two pages--of what she likes, what her feet look like…she doesn’t like closed toe because her feet look chunky…they hang over the pump…she prefers strappy with adjustments…It’s true. Yeah, she was a diva, but it was definitely worth the shot."

Pig also granted her own interview:



Aaah! She even stunned on the red carpet at the recent Academy Awards:

Other divas can learn a thing or two from this porcine princess!

Today's Dose of Cuteness Is Brought to You By...

Ellen!

Did you see this video on YouTube?



Well, Ellen had the two little girls on her show. I was just laughing the entire time. And teared up towards the end. Haha. Totally made my day! Watch this and then this.
