Where Are the Bachelorettes Now? Ali Fedotowsky, Jillian Harris, Deanna Pappas, Trista Sutter

Monday is the premiere of The Bachelorette with Ashley Hebert as the lady with the roses. When I found out that Ashley was the next Bachelorette, I wasn't surprised. After all, she's just following in her predecessor Ali Fedotowsky's footsteps, choosing reality TV (or "love," if you don't want to be too cynical about it) over career. She claims she's just putting her dental school on hold, but Read more

Closet Decorating Ideas

YumSugar's Susannah Chen recently asked the Assisted Living group for decorating advice: After five years at the same place, I'm just getting around to really decorating.

Big Love's Affect on Polygamy

Last night we bid goodbye to the best-dressed polygamists on television. Big Love did not go gently into the celestial kingdom, making up — somewhat — for a lackluster fifth season. Like Buzz, I agree it ended on a beginning that could have held my interest through the entire last season. But I'll say no more — no spoilers here! I didn't think polygamy still existed before Big Love. I Read more

How to Camouflage Your Flat Screen TV

Black isn't my go-to paint color of choice, but the next time I decide to mount a glaring television on my wall, I'll reconsider the moody shade. In the March/April issue of Lonny, homeowner Jennifer Bandier's bedroom small screen was treated to a clever camouflage thanks to a coat of black paint.

Katie Couric and Ricki Lake Courted For Daytime Talk Shows

There's a job opening for a noncertified therapist to the masses! Oprah may have mentored Tyra Banks, but Tyra's finished with talk shows. Gayle King, editor at large for O magazine, best friend to Oprah, and current talk show host on OWN seems like an apparent heir, but is not.
