"Lost" is Lost Forever.  The 2 and a half hour series finale of "Lost" aired Sunday night.  After 6 seasons the show came to an end and in my opinion, pretty much lived up to the hype.  My only complaint about the finale was the amount of commercials...for every 8 minutes of "Lost", there were 4 minutes of commercials. 

Did the final episode offer closure and answer all the questions "Lost" fans like me have been longing to have answered?  No, not really.  In fact I have more questions now than ever before.  I don't think even the writers knew for certain what the hell was going on.  Never in the history of TV has a show been so captivatingly confusing!  In the end, "Lost" certainly lived up to it's name.

I thought the ending was brilliant.  I didn't fully understand it, but I loved it.  What are your thoughts on "Lost"?  

The long weekend is finally here.  With any luck, I won't hear the sound of my alarm clock until Tuesday morning!  Have a great weekend everyone!  And now for your enjoyment, Justin Bieber walking into a door...

 Forget the fact that Lee and Crystal are competing for the American Idol crown.  The real drama and excitment of Idol is what's happening behind the scenes.

With the American Idol ratings slump and Simon's departure just days away,  expect big changes in the format of next season's show -- and maybe changes to the judging lineup too.  Are Randy, Ellen and Kara strong to capture the attention of the viewers?  An insider says, "The only one who is safe is Ryan Seacrest." 

Simon is on Oprah today.  She'll ask him about his replacement on Idol for next season.  There's been lots of rumours flying around from Elton John to Paula Abdul. 

If I got to choose Simon's replacent...I'd go with KISS legend Gene Simmons.  I think he would be perfect.  He's got a background in music, he's got personality and he's opinionated (some might say too opinionated).  Unfortunatly for Gene, he's also got bad hair.  Is that a hair or a helmet?  The dude needs a makeover.

Who do you think should replace Simon Cowell on American Idol next season?

If you’re one of those dudes who like to stay up late and watch TV…this might get you to bed on time: Research shows that if you don’t get enough sleep you could go bald. D'oh!

Basically, sleep depravation affects the body’s immune function, as well as things like hormone secretion, and physical and mental stamina.  Our hair is extremely sensitive to internal changes and disturbances in our bodies.  If you don’t get enough z’s, it can cause emotional and physical stress, which can lead to hair loss.  In other words, get more sleep or go bald.  The choice is yours. 

It's too late for me, but you and your hair still have a chance.  Go home and nap NOW!

Summer sandal season is here and this morning Lorie wanted to know why men don't like to get pedicures.  Most callers agreed...it's a macho thing.

If a pedicure isn't macho enough, how about live fish eating the dead skin off of your feet?

It's the latest spa treatment.  Would you ever go for the "Fish Foot Treatment"?  "Carp" e diem!  

What an amazing weekend!  My kids had a blast yesterday with their slip 'n slide.  The first couple of runs were a little shaky.  I set it up to close to the fence.  Ouch.

Bad news for Betty White.  Unlike Saturday Night Live, Oscar bosses will not be swayed by the Facebook campaign to name Betty White the host of next year's show. The Official Page for Getting Betty White to Host the Academy Awards has collected more than 77,000 fans, but the academy isn't paying attention. The Oscar dudes are a bit too pretentious.
 
Bret Michaels is back!  Just weeks after suffering from a brain hemorrhage, Bret Michaels has officially announced that he will return to the stage at the Hard Rock Live in Biloxi, MS on May 28.   Not only that, but he's also scheduled to appear on The Oprah Winfrey Show this coming Wednesday.  Way to cash in on your pain, buddy!  

Matt Lauer is reportedly the latest celebrity cheater. The National Enquirer reports that the Today Show host has been living apart from his wife Annette since she accused him of cheating while he was covering the Winter Olympics in Vancouver. Apparently he had a daliance or two with a Canadian broadcaster.  Any guesses?  Lloyd Robertson?
 
Kate Hudson is not happy that Cameron Diaz is dating her baseball star ex, Alex Rodriguez. Kate believes Cameron is only going after A-Rod as "payback," since Kate hooked up with Justin Timberlake right after he and Cameron split. In my opinion, the only way to settle this is with a lingere pillow fight.  Seriously.

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt called the cops to their home on Thursday after Heidi's mother showed up unannounced. Heidi told People magazine, "I told my mom a while ago I need space from her. And she just showed up at our door unannounced and tried to get in. So Spenser called the cops on his mother-in-law?  How many husbands throughout history have dreamed of doing exactly that?

Season finale of House goes tonight.  Miley Cyrus will sing on Dancing With The Stars tomorrow night and "The Bieb"...Justin Bieber, will sing on American Idol on Wednesday.  Got "Bieber Fever"?  More of "the Bieb" on Ellen today.

That's it.  Get out in the sun and enjoy the day!  Cheers.

Three Homemade Acne remedies that work. 

1) Aspirin.  Only use this for the ocasional zit...crush up one pill, add a drop or two of H2O and rub it on. wait a few minutes and wash with soap. and water.  It will reduce redness and pain. 

2) Toothpaste...it really works!  Make sure it's the PASTE not the gel.   leave it on overnight...the toothpaste needs time to dehydrate the pimple and suck up the oil. 

3) Olive Oil (not Popeye's girlfriend) Sounds weird to put oil on an oily zit?  It works...mix 3 tablespoons of olive oil with 4 tablespoons of salt until it becomes a paste.  Rub it all over your face.  The salt exfoliates your skin and the oil acts as a natural moisturizure.  Make sure you wash up before you go in public or a zit will be the least of your public humiliation.

I had a blast at the Beach Boys concert last night at Casino Regina.  Lots of "Good Vibrations".  BIG thanks to Jeff, Susan, Karen, and Stacey for arranging a backstage meet 'n greet before the show.  Very cool guys and an awesome show!

In totally unrelated celebrity news...

Everyone's favourite octogenarian, Betty White is being wooed by producers of Dancing with the Stars.  After 88-year old Betty brought huge ratings to SNL, they are trying to recruit her for next season. Betty better be careful...she could break a hip doing that.  (Help, I've fallen and I can't get up).

And it's America vs. Canada in a young celebrity showdown, as a bitter battle between Lindsay Lohan and Avril Lavigne is heating up. Rumor has it, Lindsay had a blowout with the Canadian sk8er-rocker-actress at the infamous Chateau Marmont in Hollywood -- a hotspot for stupid celebrity shenanigans. Apparently, the rivalry began when Lavigne blasted Lohan for being "fake" and "a loser" when the 'Mean Girls' star tried to approach her table.  Who do you think would win an Avril vs Lindsay cat-fight?  I put my money on Avril.  She used to play hockey.  'Nuff said.

Happy Wednesday!  Cheers!

When it comes to TV, Tuesday is the new Thursday.  Tons of great viewing tonight....American Idol, Dancing With The Stars, Lost, Glee and more.  My PVR will be getting a major workout tonight because I will not be home to watch any of it.  Instead I'll be at Casino Regina checking out my favourite band of all time: The Beach Boys!  I'm stoked.  Forget June 21st, summer officially begins now!

Remember how Tiger got busted cheating because his wife found his texts to mistresess?  Well, serial cheaters, rejoice...there's an App on the iPhone to avoid that problem.  Here's how it works...after a text is sent with the new App, it will automatically delete itself after 30 seconds...thus lessening the chances of getting caught.  Want to cheat?  There's an App for that.

Is the Tiger Text App a brilliant marketing idea or a sickening and degrading feature that promotes promiscuity and marital infidelity?
