How To Get A Frog (Or Me) Really Pissed Off

Gurl — Wed, 21 Nov 2012 15:45:22 +0000

Have you ever had to deal with someone who was just really and truly a jerk? Someone who didn’t appreciate you or who acted like the things you needed simply didn’t matter? Someone who would promise you nice things, but then turn around and not give them to you . . . without even apologizing? I think we’ve all had friends, teachers, or even bratty little brothers who’ve acted this way. And I’m sure you’re still pissed off at them.

Now think about how fun it would be to give that person what they had coming to them. Oh yeah. It would feel amazing. And they’d never ever expect it from you–you who they’re used to bullying without any repercussions at all.

This little frog was pissed off and got his revenge. I think you’ll love it.

Can you relate to the pissed off frog? Tell me why in the comments!

Watch These Two Adorable Boys Sing “We Found Love”

Jessica Booth — Fri, 26 Oct 2012 19:00:02 +0000

I love when kids sing popular songs better than I ever could. I mean, sure, it doesn’t make me feel too great about myself… but in the end, it makes me happy because it’s just too freakin’ adorable. These two little Irish boys singing Rihanna’s “We Found Love” are a perfect example of how cute kids can be when they’re jamming out with a guitar. Which version do I like better? Kind of impossible to decide. Watch for yourself:

This Old Interview Confirms That Ryan Gosling Needs To Be My Boyfriend

Jessica Booth — Tue, 23 Oct 2012 19:34:54 +0000

How CUTE is he?! | Source: Dominic Chan/WENN.com

Every time I think that there’s no possible way that I could love Ryan Gosling any more than I already do, he goes and does something that makes it possible. Or, in this case, he did something a really long time ago that’s just surfacing now, and it’s just more proof that he is the number one most amazing man ever (okay, fine, number 2 after my dad. Okay, FINE, my real life BF can be number 2. So Ryan’s third).

But seriously, you guys have to watch this. Canada AM, a CTV talk show in Canada, is celebrating it’s 40th anniversary. And that means they’ve released a bunch of seriously amazing old videos – like this one of a 12-year-old Ryan Gosling being interviewed just after he landed the role as a Disney Mouseketeer.

I cannot even handle this video. Just look at adorable pre-pubescent Ryan. He’s obviously always had the ability to charm the pants off of people – and he’s also always had his signature sly smile. All of that combined with his Canadian accent is too cute for words. I want to be the girlfriend of 12-year-old Ryan… and then stay his girlfriend. Forever.

But after watching this video, I have one majorly important question: why isn’t Ryan singing and/or dancing anymore? I mean, he’s hot enough as it is when he’s pining over the love of his life or brooding somewhere mysterious. But imagine what it would be like to see grown-up Ryan shaking his perfect butt and belting out a few tunes? I’ll tell you what it would be like: amazing.

Check out the video for yourself – and make sure you watch the beginning, where you get to see him singing and dancing. Ryan, I’m sure you already know this, but you can sing “Achy Breaky Heart” to me any day, as long as you promise to wiggle your eyebrows like that.

Are you a Ryan Gosling fan? What do you think about this video – is it totally adorable? Who’s your biggest celebrity crush? Tell us in the comments!

Disney Says I’m A Princess So I Rule The World Now Obviously

Emerald Pellot — Tue, 09 Oct 2012 16:19:15 +0000

Fierce. ShutterStock.com

Disney released this super inspiring, girl power video called “I Am A Princess.” If you’re anything like myself and majorly eyeroll when anyone categorizes girls as “princesses” because it sounds like they’ve turned your femininity into a weakness this video may sound super lame (at first). All those princesses who could only be saved by the handsome prince definitely warped my view of lady royalty.

Did anyone else have an epiphany when they heard that Cheetah Girls’ song? You know the one that says, “I don’t wanna be like Cinderella, sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar, waiting for somebody to come and set me free. I don’t wanna be like someone waiting for a handsome prince to come and save me. . . I’d rather rescue myself.”

This video is more Cheetah Girls than Sleeping Beauty. If you didn’t feel like a princess before it will definitely make you reconsider. The video showcases all different kinds of girls doing all different kinds of things like dancing, horseback riding, and swimming, but it also includes things that don’t fit into traditional gender roles like racing cars, mechanics and playing in a band. Most importantly it shows girls being honorable, brave and having strong values.

If I get to be strong AND wear a tiara that’s kind of cool. I think that’s what women’s rights have been trying to get at for a while. You can be a pretty-in-pink princess and a confident, headstrong women. Being a princess doesn’t have to mean you need to be saved, it can mean you’re born with the power to save yourself. (And rule the universe with your sparkly pink scepter!)

Watch Taylor Swift’s New Video For “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together”

Jessica Booth — Fri, 31 Aug 2012 19:00:57 +0000

Let me start this off by admitting that I am not really a Taylor Swift fan. However, her songs are catchy and I can’t help but sing along to them. And even though the lyrics might not be super sophisticated, her new song “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” is something that I’m pretty sure almost every girl can relate to.

That being said… what do you think of the video that premiered last night? It’s… interesting. Taylor sings into the camera and is joined by people dressed as animals. That’s all I’ll give away. Watch for yourself and let us know in the comments: do you love it or are you not into it?
