Celebrity Spa Arrest: Justin Bieber

Celebrity Suspect: Justin Bieber

Case: Pint-sized teenage singing sensation Justin Bieber was asked to leave a 21+ seating area in a Boston movie theater, where he’d bought a general admission ticket to see Get Him to the Greek. The Biebs is a tiny little changeling, so it’s little wonder that he was spotted right quick among the ancient 21+ crowd, but that didn’t stop Justin from putting up a fight when the bouncer escorted him out. He drew himself up to his full height, estimated to be 5″4′, and scornfully informed the bouncer, “Chuck E. Cheese sells alcohol and I have no problem getting in there!” Point: Bieber.

Spa Treatment Sentencing: If Bieber can tear himself away from the local Chuck E. Cheese, we sentence him to the Jack of All Trades spa day package at the Woodhouse Day Spa - the Gentleman’s Hot Towel Facial and Gentleman’s Manicure will have him feeling like a real grown-up in no time.

Gwyneth’s Nashville Nook

Celeb and GOOP author Gwyneth Paltrow and family (Apple included) are going to be in Nashville for a while – so, as you do, Gwyneth had an industrial warehouse converted into a cutting-edge, million-dollar home in just 10 days.

In her newsletter, Gwyneth detailed the breakneck pace and the gorgeous results – at one point, 30 workers were busily installing drywall, painting, hanging, tiling, and wiring – all at once. The furniture and decor was moved into the home with just 3 days to spare.

Head over to Apartment Therapy or Paltrow’s site to check out the results – they’re undeniably gorgeous, but one has to wonder at the wisdom of building an entire home from the ground up just for a temporary stay. Aren’t there any 5 star hotels in Nashville?

Take Jane Lynch’s Advice When You Wed Like A Celeb

Jane Lynch, funnywoman and star of the breakout freshman hit Glee, is getting hitched this month – and she swears she hasn’t been engaging in any stereotypical celebrity bridezilla behavior (though she admits that her Glee character, Sue Sylvester, would be a bridezilla of the highest degree.)

While we’re all for celebrities acting like normal human beings when engaging in normal human tasks like “getting married”, we have to admit a temper tantrum or two from Lynch would probably be more funny than anything else.

Still, when you enter to win our Wed Like a Celeb giveaway (complete with designer gown and ultimate honeymoon in Tahiti) it’s good to make like Jane Lynch and swear that you won’t let the good life go to your head.

Celebrity Spa Arrest: Betty White

Love this picture from Hollywood Life... we can SO picture it!


Celebrity Suspect: Betty White

Case: Any other eighty-nine year old who has accomplished as much in showbiz as Ms. White has would be content to rest on her laurels – we’re thinking a daily routine where nothing on her to-do list is more taxing than a few mimosas over Golden Girls reruns. But Betty has other plans in mind! She made a splash last weekend as the charming host of Saturday Night Live thanks to a vigorous Facebook campaign on her behalf, and now there those same Facebook fans are pushing for Betty to host the Oscars and guest-star on Glee – making her perhaps the world’s most beloved/hard-working octogenarian.

Spa Treatment Sentencing: Betty’s working hard and needs pampering! We sentence her to a 60-Min Hot Stone Massage – enough to be soothing, but not too rough. Just right for our favorite Golden Girl!

7 Legendary TV Nurses – In Honor of National Nurses Week

Do you know any nurses? Of course you do. You might have been afraid of them as a child, coming atchya with a big scary shot in the behind, but it’s time to put that, er, behind you, and applaud them for all their hard work. Today is the official kick off of National Nurses Week! Members of the health profession from across the country are recognized and honored for their contributions to society.  This year’s theme is Caring Today for a Healthier Tomorrow. The week-long celebration ends on May 12th, which is the birthday of Florence Nightingale, regarded as the founder of modern nursing. Nightingale was known for her pioneer work during the Crimean War. She earned the nickname “The Lady with the Lamp” after bravely traveling at night tending to the wounded soldiers. Her courage sets the tone for the incredible strength it takes to be a nurse today.

In honor of National Nurses Week here’s a look at some of the greatest television nurses of all time.

Debra Jo Rupp as Kitty Forman, That 70′s Show

Loretta Swit as Major Margaret J. “Hotlips” Houlihan, M*A*S*H

Edie Falco as Jackie Petyon, Nurse Jackie

Milo Ventimiglia as Peter Petrilli, Heroes

Judy Reyes as Nurse Carla Espinosa, Scrubs

Julianna Margulies as Carol Hathaway, E.R.

Jada Pinkett Smith as Christina Hawthorne, Hawthorne

Tip: As a token of appreciation and to let those in the nursing field know that are appreciated, send them a note acknowledging their hard work.

Who’s your favorite TV nurse of all time?
