The latest Harry Potter flick is coming, and of course the internet is heating up with trailers and gossip… I just watched the latest trailer to be released, and it looks like Harry Potter has gone from being a magical movie about a kid with a cool talent, to another Dark, Intense Sci-Fi Thriller.

The Harry Potter and Half Blood Prince title is right, (at least the “Half Blood” part) since it looks like they’ve replaced Harry and the gang with a new, younger, more lovable bunch (not surprising, since the Hogwart Academy doesn’t usually have high school students in their late 20’s - so the original cast is starting to look a little odd, wandering the halls amongst a bunch of teens…)

As you can see in this latest trailer, this isn’t exactly the flick you want to take the little kids to, but if you like intrigue, scary thrillers with a cast of kids and old people, this seems to be the movie for you.

I’ll eventually watch it, but only out of a sense of obligation… I’ve come this far down the road, I might as well watch it to the bitter, Jump-the-Shark end…

Shia’s Mom: My Boy’s “Fine”

Shia LaBeouf’s mom, Shayna, leaves Shia’s house in Los Angeles on Monday.

Shayna told E!, that, “I’m at the hospital right now, he’s doing fine.” She did not, however, reveal more about his present condition, after undergoing extensive hand surgery after a DUI-incurring car crash.

I’m not one to make fun of people during moments of tragedy (who am I kidding, that’s exactly what I do…) but is there anyone else out there who thinks there’s something wrong with this picture? I mean, come on, you’re son is a movie star/alcoholic, and his last payday was almost $10 million, couldn’t you at least get your hair done?

I saw some pictures today of John Mayer sporting his new ‘do. A very short buzz cut. Have you seen it? Take a look:

Do you like it? I miss his curly locks already. Well, maybe not exactly curly, but wavy, whatever.

I have to admit John Mayer has never held much appeal visually for me before, however, I recently viewed a video on TMZ.com where he spent the entire 4 minutes making fun of TMZ. After seeing that and witnessing his spontaneous sense of humor, I can kinda see why the chicks dig him. He has this weird sex appeal. Go figure.

Rebecca Romijn & Jerry O’Connell are expecting twins this winter.

Romijn & O’Connell have been married since July of 2007 and have talked about how they would love to have children. Earlier this month O’Connell said “It would be amazing if it happened and he joked the the conception process had been “a lot of fun for me” adding that they go at it “at least a few days a month!”

Wow. Twins. Of course they are. Everyone knows twins are common with celebrities, right? (Marcia Cross, Nancy Grace, Julia Roberts, Patrick Dempsey, Jennifer Lopez, and, of course, Brad & Angelina, just to name a few.)

So it’s beginning to look like twins are the new Hollywood trend. I wonder who’s next.

Are the young women today really foolish enough to do drugs and steroids, or are they just desperate enough to try anything to win?

U.S. swimmer Jessica Hardy won’t get to compete at the Olympics in Beijing.

According to reports, the Southern California native tested positive for a banned substance.

Hardy can pursue appeals with the American Arbitration Association and the Court of Arbitration for Sport.

With just two weeks til Beijing, Hardy could appeal directly to the arbitration court, whose ruling would be final and binding.

Typically, a first-time doping offense results in a two-year ban.

Hardy earned spots on her first Olympic team in her best event, the 100 breast, and the 50 freestyle and 400 free relay.

She was expected to be a medal threat in the 100-meter breaststroke, and to play an important part on the U.S. 400-meter free relay team, and possibly the 400 medley relay.

If she’s really innocent she should totally appeal.

Drugs are bad!

They always shatter dreams!

According to the NY Post ” Jennifer Lopez was a diva with a capital D shopping last week at the Catherine Malandrino boutique on Manhasset’s Miracle Mile, near where she lives with hubby Marc Anthony. “She demanded the store be shut down for her to shop alone, but they said, ‘Absolutely not,’ ” said our spy. “Then one of her eight-person entourage, including two bodyguards with their guns showing, was yelling at the clerk that Jennifer gets a 50 percent discount. Jennifer also tried on about a million outfits, then just threw it all in a pile in the dressing room and didn’t buy one thing.” J.Lo’s rep did not return a call.

What IS a Diva Chick?

I’m sure it conjures different impressions for each person.

Diva is a word generally associated with someone who is a prima donna or hard to please.

UrbanDictionary.com defines diva as “a bitchy woman that must have her way exactly, or no way at all. Often rude and belittles people, believes that everyone is beneath her and thinks that she is so much more loved than what she really is. Selfish, spoiled, and overly dramatic.” I think that’s incredibly harsh, don’t you?

The word chick has often been interpreted to be a slang term in regards to a woman, usually a young woman. Whereas “hen” brings to mind an old, catty woman.

So when the two words meet, what do you get? A young, bitchy woman who is overly self-important? Methinks not.

A Diva Chick, to me, is a woman of refined tastes, a woman who knows what she wants and how to get it, a woman of ANY age because we’re all as young as we feel.

What is a Diva Chick to you?
