I first was made aware of Party Down in early 2011. If you have Netflix and have yet to see this show, it is an absolute must.

It follows the lives of caterers in Hollywood, all hoping to make it big someday, but stuck waiting at crazy events. The show, insanely, got cancelled after only two seasons on Starz. However, the show was so popular among fans (despite getting axed) that a movie is said to be in the works, a la Arrested Development.

Our fave Adam Scott, who you may know as the amazing Ben Wyatt on Parks and Recreation, plays Henry Pollard in Party Down which is, in my humble opinion, Scott’s best character to date.

Other stars of the show are Jane Lynch before she was stolen to be on Glee, Lizzy Caplan, Ken Marino, Ryan Hansen, Martin Starr and Megan Mullally.

The show was created and written mostly by, John Enbom, Dan Etheridge, Paul Rudd (!!!!!) and Rob Thomas. John Enbom is said to be working on the movie script as we type this. YAY!!!

Celebrité: Christina Aguilera just can’t catch a break

Oh good lord. Pictures and videos have been running around the internet showing Christina Aguilera getting her period while singing at Etta James’ funeral. Oh. My GOD. Middle school nightmare come true!

That’s pretty much the worst thing I’ve seen in a while. Because it’s really not a big deal, but it’s still embarrassing to the point where millions of people have not only seen her be kind of a hot mess for the past couple of years, but also fudge up the lyrics to the National Anthem, be made fun of for her weight gain and then get your period at a legend’s funeral. She needs a new album of Stripped caliber like, yesterday. (Her best album eva!)

It seems like in terms of bad luck in Hollywood, the greater the crazy and misfortune, the faster the return. At Xtina’s rate, she’s gonna sneeze and shart in a white dress on live TV any day now.
