| 5 Things to Know About Pippa Middleton Posted: 30 Apr 2011 10:35 AM PDT
1. Pippa is a nickname. Her actual first name is Philippa, but she goes by Pippa with her friends. (Still, for all of you who think that she and Prince Harry would make a cute couple, Princess Philippa does have a nice ring to it.) 2. She and her sister have always been close. Just two years apart, Kate and Pippa have always gotten along well and done things together. In order to be closer to Kate, who was attending the University of St. Andrews, Pippa went to college at the University of Edinburgh. In addition to being the maid of honor at Kate’s wedding, Pippa was reportedly involved in the planning and details. 3. She might be in a relationship. Since last year, Pippa has been in a relationship with Alex Loudon, a former cricket star who is now studying for a graduate degree in business. Neither of them have confirmed the relationship on the record, though. 4. She works for her family’s company. Carole and Michael Middleton made their fortune with a company they founded called Party Pieces. It’s a mail-order company where people can order supplies and decorations for events. Although Pippa didn’t start out working for Party Pieces, when the company kept growing she left her job to come work with her parents. 5. She loves designer clothes. Pippa is often photographed by British society papers. Like her sister, her dress for the wedding was designed by Alexander McQueen creative director Sarah Burton, and she switched into a seafoam-green gown by Alice Temperley for the reception.

| 'Wilfred' Is a Dog, So Why Does Elijah Wood See Him as a Man? Posted: 30 Apr 2011 11:23 AM PDT Wilfred is a new television show. It is airing on FX in June. It features a suicidal Elijah Wood. Next door to Suicidal Elijah Wood is a woman with a dog. The world, by and large, sees the dog as a dog. Suicidal Elijah Wood, however, sees it as a man in a dog suit. The dog, by the way, is called Wilfred. Does this baffle anyone else as much as it baffles me? In the words of Eddie Izzard, I just want to have been in the room when they were working that one through. I’ve actually just discovered that Wilfred was originally an Australian show that’s getting an American remake. I’ll be interested to see if it’ll work; American remakes of foreign television shows have a history of not going so well. Consider, for example, the extremely short-lived Viva Laughlin. Classified as a “musical-dramady,” Viva Laughlin featured an inexplicable jukebox musical format wherein characters would often burst out into song. But the weirdest part wasn’t the singing; it was that these musical sequences were done simply by having the actors sing over the original recordings of the songs in question. Weird, right? I know. That’s probably why it tanked. Here’s the thing, though: Viva Laughlin was based off of the British show Blackpool. I’ve seen Blackpool. It’s surprisingly enjoyable. And also, if I’d seen it before the creation of Viva Laughlin and someone had told me they were going to adapt it for American television, you know what I would have said? “That’s NEVER going to work.” I understand the impulse to take these sorts of shows and remake them for American television. I do. They’re popular in their home countries and they’re remarkably unique ideas, so why not try to bring something like that to the States? Here’s the thing, though: I’m not surprised that the Brits came up with Blackpool. I’m not surprised that the Australians came up with Wilfred. American audiences are willing to watch these incredibly strange concepts in their original form because they have the veil of “Oh, how quirkily British!” (or whatever) to add to their mystique. They’re quaint. They’re a little wacky. And they’re from somewhere else. So of course we love them. They become much less interesting when they’re shoved through the American television system and just become weird instead. Of course, this is by no means a rule, and even if it were, there are most certainly exceptions, The Office being the most notable; but it’s also worth noting that The Office only hit its stride after it stopped trying to be the British version and allowed itself to evolve into something of its own. So maybe the American Wilfred will surprise me. I’ll give it the benefit of the doubt until I see it for myself. But it could go either way. Who knows?

Although most of yesterday’s royal wedding coverage focused – as it should have – on the bride and groom, many people couldn’t help but notice the young woman in the white dress who was carrying Princess Catherine‘s train. That young woman was Catherine’s younger sister, Pippa Middleton, who will be a lady-in-waiting in the royal court. So, what do you need to know about her?
Life is in the details– especially when those details are awesome. Neil Pasricha began his blog

These actually are the droids you’re looking for. Except that they’re not. But they are. But they aren’t. Or maybe the Jedi mind trick is just trying to make your brain explode. Where’s Obi Wan when you need him?
Katy Perry may be American, but her marriage to British comic Russell Brand has given her a case of Anglophilia. Today she 
Somehow, this cliche of casually brekaing into a perfectly-choreographed dance scene has found its way into a dozen romantic comedies. And yet, there’s something endearing about Ginnifer Goodwin and Kate Hudson‘s characters in Something Borrowed reenacting their sixth-grade talent show rendition of Salt-n-Pepa‘s “Push It.” My only question: Would you really have a dance party with your best friend after you’ve slept with her fiance? That said, Goodwin can get down like the best of them.| You are subscribed to email updates from Crushable To stop receiving these emails, you may unsubscribe now. | Email delivery powered by Google |
