Boy of the Moment - Eddie Redmayne

Okay, for serious I don't know how Eddie Redmayne has slipped under my radar for so long! My little sister just introduced me to him, so of course I had to look him up. And to my shock and awe I found out that Eddie Redmayne is a Burberry model!!!! And, as I have mentioned many times, Burberry models are my favorite. Yet another reason why:

If you're thinking to yourself that he looks familiar you may have seen the much talked about My Week with Marilyn, where he starred opposite Michelle Williams. But most likely it's because you have very recently seen the highly anticipated Les Miserables in which he plays Marius opposite Amanda Seyfried. And to give you something to look forward to he will soon be seen in the sci-fi flick Jupiter Ascending opposite Channing Tatum and Mila Kunis. You're welcome. 

Boy of the Moment - Alden Ehrenreich

Everyone is saying Alden Ehrenreich is about to be the next Leonardo DiCaprio. I don't know if I can say that yet... but he was discovered by Steven Spielberg and his first role was the lead in a Coppola movie. (Francis Ford Coppola to be exact) That is impressive. But what get's him to "Boy of the Moment" status is that he's set to star in the book to movie series Beautiful Creatures. Aka, he's about to be the next big teen heartthrob. The next Leo? Maybe. But the next Robert Pattinson? Seems inevitable. I have to say, I won't hate seeing his face everywhere... And it has to be noted that I recently watched the trailer for Beautiful Creatures and that kiss scene... I watched about a hundred times. Best movie kiss in years. Watch here:

Boy of the Moment - Sam Riley

Okay let me just start of by stating the obvious. Sam Riley is a Burberry model and, as you may have guessed, Burberry models are my favorite. Here is why:

I don't need more than a picture to explain. More about Sam Riley, you will soon see him in the much anticipated On the Road with Garrett Hedlund, Tom Sturridge, Viggo Mortensen, Steve Buscemi, Elizabeth Moss, Amy Adams, Terrance Howard, Kirsten Dunst, oh and Kristen Stewart. Quite the cast! You can also see him in Byzantium, which I haven't heard much about but it's based off a play and also stars Gemma Arterton (who is the female equivalent of my boy of the moment, she's about to be in EVERYTHING) it also stars Saoirse Ronan, and my LOVE Jonny Lee Miller. Probably most exciting Sam Riley will be seen in the highly talked about Maleficent starring Angelina Jolie and Elle Fanning. Plus. he sings. Be still my heart.

The Truth

There are a lot of "advice columns" out there with really bad advice... here's the truth. 

 QUESTION: 
I met a guy at a party and we hit it off and kissed at the end of the night. We then texted all of yesterday (the day after the party) and I really like him but am not sure if he actually likes me or was just playing me. And what does it mean when a guy calls you "extremely good looking" instead of pretty or hot??? HELP PLEASE!!! 

 ANSWER: 
If he talked to you at the party and the day after, he probably likes you! And pretty and hot aren't the only words guys can say to girls -- if he said you were good looking, that's a great compliment and sounds even better than pretty or hot! If he's a nice guy, give him a chance! It sounds like you both really like each other

 TRUTH: 
If he talked to you at the party and you kissed him at the end of the night he's probably texting you the day after because you dressed like a slut and now he thinks he can get in your pants.

Nat Wolff is indie movie perfection. I recently watched Peace, Love, and Misunderstanding with Jane Fonda and Catherine Keener and was surprised to see little Nat Wolff from the Naked Brothers Band! Only he isn't so little anymore. This kid has grown up, knows how to rock a suit, looks a little like Ted Mosby from HIMYM, and is about to be the biggest new young actor. Just this year you will see him in Writers with Lily Collins, Logan Lerman, and Kristen Bell; Admission with Paul Rudd, Michael Sheen, and Tina Fey; Feed the Dog with Selena Gomez, Cary Elwes, Mary Louise-Parker, and Heather Graham; and the HIGHLY anticipated Palo Alto written by Gia Coppola and James Franco. Mark my words Nat Wolff is about to be huge!

Boy of the Moment - Jamie Campbell Bower

yes yes yessssssss! It has been confirmed that Jamie Campbell Bower is reattached to The Mortal Instruments movie as Jace! So he will be our new boy of the moment. If you haven't heard of him... shame! Because I know you've seen him.. (He's one of the Harry Potter/Twilight crossover actors) And now he'll  be getting a lead role in the next teen sensation book to movie series The Mortal Instruments!! And seriously I saw no one else for this role. Before the movie was even cast I was reading the books thinking... only Jamie Campbell Bower can do this role justice. And the lovely Lily Collins has already been cast as the female lead. Do yourself a favor.. pick up the book.. get obsessed. And for those of you who have read the book... here's a mock screen shot of Lily and Jamie as Clary and Jace in The Mortal Instruments (This is exactly how I pictured the markings! Thoughts?) 

The NEW book!!

Yes, it's true. As many of you have heard I am finishing up my first novel! And for all my wonderful blog frequenters you get the first sneak peak at an excerpt of my new book, What If?

Her

    “You look amazing,” Logan said kissing her on the cheek. “I’ll have the best looking girl at the party tonight.” She smiled and took the hand he offered and they walked down the street toward Robbie’s party. It was the perfect Seattle night; crisp cool air and not a cloud in sight. The streets downtown were still lit up with holiday lights and everyone was dressed to perfection heading to their own New Years celebration.  

     Tonight would be the perfect night to have “the talk.” Robbie was right, they were long overdo. They’ve done enough years of on and off again, it’s time he makes a commitment to her. 
     Bypassing the line at the door Logan gave the bouncer a quick pat on the back and moved passed him through the door.
     They entered the venue and she caught her breath. Robbie had outdone himself once again. The place was transformed from its typical modern lodge style atmosphere to a sparkling, shinning, glittering New Years Eve wonderland. They were quickly swallowed by the crowd and she leaned over to Logan.
     “Let’s go find Robbie.” She said. 
     “You go find him. Meet me at the bar.”
     “Okay,” She said, “I’ll only be a couple minutes.” 
     “Alright, don’t find yourself another boyfriend before you get back,” He grinned and kissed her before heading off to the bar. Boyfriend, he said boyfriend. That must mean he thinks of himself as her boyfriend. Robbie was wrong. Logan did love her, she was sure of that. 


Him
     “Robbie!” He heard Sky shout pushing through the typical mob of girls that surrounded him. Not one of them compared to her. Sure they were gorgeous, smart, talented funny, just about every guys dream; but any time he spent with them, or any other girl for that matter, just ended up making him think of Sky, and how much he’d rather be with her. As she walked toward him he had to really concentrate to keep his jaw off the floor, she was stunning tonight. Sure she always looked gorgeous, incredibly trendy always styled to perfection. But tonight, in her short sequined dress, she looked downright sexy. Luckily he would have her all to himself tonight, so he wouldn't have worry too much about trying to keep his hands off her. 
     She threw her arms around him in a hug as soon as she made it through the mob. 
     “The place looks amazing,” She said. 
     “Even better now that my disco ball showed up,” he said gesturing at her dress.
     “What? You don’t like it?” She accused him, stepping back and striking a pose to show it off. 
     “Well… it could be a little shorter,” he teased.
     “I’m sorry, I didn’t feel like fitting in with the rest of your slut girls tonight,” she teased back. They laughed and hugged again. 
     “But seriously,” he said, “I’m going to have to fight the boys off you all night.”
     “Oh don’t worry about that. I have protection, Logan’s here.” He felt like he had just been hit in the chest with a sledge hammer. 
     “I thought that was over?” He asked. 
     “Well I did think a lot about what you said, and you’re right we need to have the talk. I plan on doing that tonight.” He didn’t even try to hide the concerned look on his face.
     “Sky…” he said. 
     “Robbie, don’t start I know what you’re going to say. But you’re wrong. He called me his girlfriend tonight!”
     “He did?” Robbie asked genuinely surprised. 
     “Well, sort of,” Sky said. “He implied it, but I knew what he meant.”
     “Sky, please stop assuming he has good intentions. He doesn’t.” Robbie said. He knew that sounded harsh and probably came across mean, but when was she going to get it through her head, Logan was just stringing her along so he’d always have someone to come home to. When was she going to get it through her head that I love her, he thought to himself. 
     “You’re wrong!” She shouted and stalked off in the direction of the bar. Robbie sighed and turned back to his adoring fans. 
     “Who wants to dance!” he said looking back over his shoulder one last time at Sky.


Her
     She spent the next half hour searching for Logan. He wasn’t at the bar, not in line for the bathrooms, or chatting up his other friends there. She finally found him out on the dance floor with some of Robbie’s slut girl rejects. He looked up and saw her notice him from across the room. 
     “Hey, Sky,” he said abandoning the dancing whores and walking over to her, “I was wondering where you went.” 
     “Well here I am,” she said rudely crossing her arms.
     “Hey, don’t be like that,” he said, “I was just killing time waiting for you.” She sighed, he was right, she really shouldn’t be overreacting. 
     “Let’s go sit at the bar for a bit, there’s something I want to talk to you about.”
     Was he going to initiate “the talk?” Was this finally going to happen? She smiled as he took her hand and walked her over to the bar. 
     “Listen,” he said tucking her hair behind her ear. “You know how I feel about you.” Did she? She wasn’t sure but didn’t say anything to interrupt. “So I want you to hear it from me first, my job wants me to relocate to New York.” 
     “What do you mean?” she said. Not that she was confused about what he said, but she was confused about what that meant for them. He took her hand. 
     “We are really great together, Sky. But now I’m going to be spending the majority of my time in New York, and as much as I want to be with you, I can’t ask you to give up your life to come with me.” 
     “Yes, you can,” She said tears beginning to sting her eyes.
     “No, Sky, I care about you to much to do that.”
     “But… I love you, and I don’t want to be with anyone else. I… I can’t say goodbye to you,” She was furiously holding back tears. This was too sudden, there was so much more she wanted to say, so much more she wanted him to say. She truly couldn’t imagine being with anyone else, loving anyone else. How could he sound so casual about this? Had he not even considered her in his decision? And, why was he telling her this now? On New Years! This was supposed to be a magical night for them! Her mood changed quickly from sad to angry. 
     “I haven’t really put thought into you being with anyone else while I’m gone,” Logan said. “And I don’t want to say goodbye to you either, I will be back here on occasion for work and we can pick this up then.”
     “Wait, what?” She said yanking her hand away. “So… so you don’t want me to go with you, but you want me to wait for you, just be here for you when you get back?” Was Robbie right after all? Had Logan been stringing her along this whole time? 
     “Sky,” Logan reached for her hand again but she crossed her arms. “You know that’s not how I meant it, you’re overreacting.” And with that she stormed off.


     Irritated, she headed for the rooftop deciding she needed some air. It was quiet outside, the pounding bass of the music only a dull hum beneath her feet. The outdoor heaters were on and twinkle lights were hanging everywhere. There were chairs and benches set up near each heater perfect for a couple to escape the noise and cozy up together. She took in a deep breath of cool air and looked around. 
     “Robbie?” She said spotting him sitting on a bench overlooking the city. She walked over and sat down next to him. “What are you doing out here?”
     “Just needed some air,” he said, leaning back and putting his arm around her. She leaned into him and he pulled her close. 
     “Yeah, I know the feeling,” she said sighing. Robbie didn’t respond, they just sat in silence together and watched the city. That’s what she loved about Robbie, he knew when to push her, when to offer advice, when to be fun, when to be serious, when to make her laugh, when to make her cry, and when to just be there, not saying anything. She looked up at him and he wiped away a tear she hadn’t realized escaped.
     They sat in silence for quite a while before the booming sound of music made them look back to see who had opened the rooftop door. 
     “Logan!” she said sitting up quickly. Robbie tightened his arm around her protectively. 
     “Sky!” Logan shouted stumbling across the rooftop, “I’ve been looking for you.” 
     “You have?” She said standing up and closing the distance between them. He put his hands on her shoulders not in a loving gesture she quickly realized; he was using her to steady himself. He was drunk. 
     “You have it all wrong,” He said attempting to look her in the eye. “I think I love you and yeah it sucks that I’m leaving, but it’s not like if we do anything that it means anything against the other person. Like, I’ll still feel the same way about you regardless. So like, I know you say that you don’t want to be with anyone else, but if you need to, and I’m not around feel free to like, fill your physical desires.”
     “Are you kidding me right now?” Sky pulled back again. “So you’re giving me permission to hook up while you’re away and then when you’re back I’ll drop all that and we’ll be together?” 
     “I’m saying that if one of us does that, it won’t take away from what we have.” He said reaching for her again. 
     “So, you want me to give you permission to hook up!” She said furiously. 
     “No… well, I’m just saying you don’t have to wait around for me.” He said looking genuinely confused as to why she was getting so angry. 
     “Don’t worry. I won’t.”


Him
     Robbie watched Sky storm off into the club. He wanted to chase after her but felt he should probably get drunken Logan in a cab and back home first. 
     “I don’t understand it man,” Logan said to him as he helped him out of the club. “Girls are crazy, like, I have fun with Sky, she’s amazing. Well you know that, obviously. But she’s got to know I’m just not ready for that kind of a commitment that she wants. I like having fun.”
     “You like other girls and knowing Sky will be there when you don’t have anyone else.” Robbie said to him. 
     “Well yeah, I mean like who doesn’t want that one loyal girl. Look at you; you’ve got like thirty of them!”      They were out on the street corner now and Robbie shoved Logan off of him. 
     “What the hell man!” Logan shouted stumbling backward and grabbing onto a tree to steady himself. 
     “What is wrong with you? Yeah, I have a ton of girls around me but none of them want anything from me but a seat in my VIP lounge and a couple free drinks. Don’t compare Sky to that, she is not like them, not even close. So stop treating her like that. Sky wants a commitment from you. She deserves that. She deserves so much more and so much better than you. Please, stop stringing her along. Tell her the truth; that you have no intention of ever committing to her. Let her go… please, get out of her life.” He knew he was begging now. 
     “You sound like you’re in love with her,” Logan said. 
     “I’ve been in love with her since high school,” Robbie said throwing up his hands in frustration, “All I need now is for you to move away so she will see it. And oh wait… looks like I’m getting my wish.” He crossed his arms and smirked at Logan. 
     “You think just because I move away she’s going to forget about me? And be with you? I’m sorry man, but you were friend zoned years ago. And you can bet I’ll make sure I come around enough to keep her interested. Who knows, I may someday decide that she’s the one. Probably not, but until that happens, I’m going to keep her around.” Logan patted Robbie on the shoulder and hopped in the waiting cab. 
Logan was wrong. Robbie knew that if Sky could ever get her mind off Logan she would see what he saw; that they are perfect for each other. But with Logan deciding to hold onto her forever the likelihood of that happening was slim to none. He should probably be the one to let go of Sky; to move on. He sighed and turned around to find Sky standing in the doorway, her arms crossed. 
     “What did he have to say for himself?” She asked him. Normally Robbie would try and sugarcoat this kind of thing but tonight he was too tired, too frustrated, and too annoyed. 
     “He basically admitted to stringing you along and planning to continue to do just that. He doesn’t want a commitment and he compared you to one of my Slut girls.” She glared at him and for a second he thought she would call him a liar. 
     “What did you say?” She asked him. 
     “I told him you are better than that, and deserve better. I told him he should tell you the truth and stop stringing you along. I told him to get out of your life.” Robbie was prepared for her to slap him, but to his surprise she threw her arms around his neck. 
     “Thank you,” She whispered in his ear. 
     “You know I’d do anything for you,” Everything he did was for her. “What now?” He asked.
     “Walk me home?” She said grabbing his hand. 
     “Your home or mine?” He teased winking at her. She laughed but then paused and sighed.
     “How about yours tonight?” she said. “I don’t feel like being alone.” As they walked down the street hand in hand he heard the New Years countdown begin from the open doors of his club. His party had been a success, Logan was moving away, and he was going home with the girl he loved, he couldn’t think of any better way to end the year.

The Truth

There are a lot of "advice columns" out there with really bad advice.... here's the truth.
QUESTION:
Well I like this guy in my class we have been partners all year in school. I had feelings for them but they changed in September but last month i realized my feelings never left. Now when we talk, work together, or even if I get near by him I get nervous are my heart starts beating faster. I wanted to know if he likes me. When we got in to groups me and him sat next to each other he would let his arm and legs rest against mines and won't move them and I didn't move them. We where putting tape on the back of a poster nobody was behind us and for accident (I think) we touched hands for a good second and he didn't move his hand I was to shy to look at him. When we are the halls I think sometimes I see him starring at me and I look at him and we look at the eyes but he doesn't simile. I know this isn't enough information but I need some advice because sometimes I feel I want to scream at school that I like that guy!

ANSWER:Ask one of your friends to ask him, or tell one of his friend to tell him that you like him. Even if he doesnt like you, after knowing you like him he might devolope feelings. It actually works.


TRUTH:
Please. Stop playing this game. I'm all for playing "the game" love it.. but this is soooooooo junior high. Granted the questioner never said what grade she was in. But seriously not even junior highers should be playing that game. Stop involving the whole rumor mill, grow some balls, and make a move. The worst that could happen is that he doesn't like you back.. and well then at least you won't waste any more of your time wondering. And if he is interested... well yay. You're not wondering anymore and you can just be happy together. Goodness people stop wasting away your lives wondering!

but since you are doubting your relationship because you are insecure about your relationship for whatever the reason is, it would be hard for anyone to make that work.

TRUTH:
Why isn't the obvious answer NO!?!? It should be. NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! I mean... a) You're 16.... he's 20! and b) there is no such thing as a mature 16 year old. and c) all 20 year old boys are immature! that doesn't mean they should be dating down! Sheesh... does NO ONE have common sense??

My Boy of the Moment - Jeremy Irvine

Hopefully you've all seen the amazing Oscar Nominated War Horse and that's why this name is familiar to you. But in that movie they make him look like some 14 year old boy when in reality he's this GORGEOUS 22 year old model! Luckily we will see him act and look more his age in the upcoming movie Now Is Good with Dakota Fanning.

The Truth

There are a lot of "advice columns" out there with really bad advice.... here's the truth.

QUESTION:
I'm seeing this guy, he knows I'm a virgin and he told me he wouldn't pressure me into anything, his words were ''I won't even mention it because I'm a firm believer in losing it to someone you really love.'' Does this mean he doesn't like me as much as I thought? And what do I do when I feel ready?

ANSWER:
wow, you got it all twisted.

he has respect for you! i dont know why you believe that someone liking you means that they need to be physical with you, but that is not the case at all. he respects you and thinks that your virginity is a special thing that should not be given away unless it is to someone you love, thats not a negative thing. him saying that probably means he likes you more than you think.

what to do when you are ready, that i dont think i can answer.. simply because, im very very old school to when it comes to this type of thing and think that your virginity should be saved for “the one” and when you are married and what not. i know thats a very unpopular opinion but thats the way i feel.

TRUTH:
wow, you BOTH have it all twisted.

This is a classic line! "I'm a firm believer in losing it to someone you love" Really?? you fall for that?? He says this so he can quickly tell you he loves you knowing you're already prepped to think this declaration of "love" will make you think you're ready. Trust me, every guy out there is going to pressure you at some point. YOU need to be strong and confident in your ability to say "No" if you don't feel ready.
