Not surprisingly my favorite part of any major event like the premier of a movie is the chance to see what stars bring their A game when it comes to fashion and the 2013 Cannes Film Festival was no different. All of the actors, actresses, models, and directors flocked to France in order to attend the premier of huge hits, indie films, and...Read More!

The film is a look at the harrowing issue of sexual assault within the United States Military.

When I first started telling people that I wanted to pursue writing, almost every single person asked me if I wanted to “write for a magazine, ya know, like Cosmo?” I kindly told all of these people that while I respect those writers and their choices, I truly believe I can contribute to the world in a better way than telling women the “27...Read More!

Okay, we know what you’re thinking — yes, Hawkeye is the character in Avengers with the bow and arrow.

While I have come to actually like Mariah and Miguel‘s new single: “Beautiful” because Miguel’s cameo seems to dominate the whole single, I must admit I am extremely turned off by the actual video. It has taken me awhile to get over Miguel’s sex simulation on stage, and while I have come back to #TeamMiguel I am now...Read More!

“Star Trek: Into Darkness is one of the most highly anticipated sequels of this summer and for good reason! The previous franchise-rebooting 2009 movie was a surprise hit that’s reawakened a long dormant yet incredibly passionate fandom (speaking of, did you know that the very first modern fan-fiction was written by Star Trek fans?).
