CHRISTINA HENDRICKS TOP STAR, GOVERNOR’S BALL POST EMMYS 2012
Post Emmys talk has all come down to, Christina Hendricks golden globes. I knew it would. :)
Indeed, Christina is the no.1 searched for star on the website today. Let’s take a look at headlines concerning Ms. Hendricks. When I lived in the USA, 100% USA media outlets searches would come up first. Today in New Zealand (on Google) British media’s headlines are being fed my way. Um (note to Google), NZ is not a colony of the UK, constitutionally today, so perhaps Google needs to mix up the feedline recommends. We love UK people in NZ, although of the new arrivals, when they get to our shores, they eat more than their fare share of fish, beef and lamb! More so than the average New Zeealander today. We are big Senna Kowhai and Princess Eugenie fans here too, plus their family members. :)
The UK has been given Google preferencing today on Emmys coverage in NZ, more so than Aussie media, (NZ’s closest neighbor and largest economic ally). Anyway, back to Christina’s golden globe headlines post Emmys.
Does Christina Hendricks bust needs its own zip code?–KLG asks. Or, Christina Hendricks gets the gongs out as the stars shine bright at Emmys.–The Sun. Or, the civil approach – Christina Hendricks lets her hair down at Governors Ball–The Daily Mail.
What did Christina Hendricks wear? Another Christina Siriano–on ya! –More at Huffington Post.

CHRISTINA HENDRICKS ONCE WENT TO A “MEAN GIRLS” HIGH SCHOOL
One of the most requested search terms today on the blog is “Christina Hendricks bullied.”
Hendricks says she was bullied at school for being a ‘Goth ugly theater major non-conformist student pack rat.’ Or words to that effect.
So, why is this even news? Being bullied is actually very good training for surviving the rigours of Hollywood. But, poor Christina Hendricks.
More at the UK Daily Mail.

PRODUCTS ARE PLACED ON WRITERS DESKS TO SCRIPT INTO SHOWS – MAD MEN’S BROADCASTING CONTRACT CHANGES
What does a shampoo bottle have in common with Christina Hendrick‘s hair color? Her paycheck on TV.
All audiences of TV exist for advertisers. When people have TeVo and record shows to then fast forward ads, or have Facebook time in between commercial breaks when watching their shows being broadcast, with a button on mute, advertisers don’t get a good deal any more on the TV. Super Bowl is the big exception. Ads are all watched. Sports ads entertainment are beauties, always.
Even with hit shows, like Mad Men the writers aren’t exempt from being corporate sponsors of their shows, messengers. AMC announced via Deadline Hollywood that ‘the upcoming fifth season of Mad Men is now slated to debut in March 2012. That is 17 months from the series’ fourth season finale. While the protracted negotiations between Mad Men creator/ exec producer Matt Weiner and AMC/Lionsgate TV led to the acclaimed series’ pushed production start and, in turn, caused the show to miss its original July premiere date, the new March return date is not directly tied to the contract talks.’
In addition product placement with AMC’s writers is where the network is heading. Mad Men’s historical context, leaves a lot of modern products out of the world of the show. This may or may not be a problem. Since then AMC has diversified too, into other shows, with writers who will put products into their shows via the scripting of the show. AMC like worker with writers like this.
AMC’s argument with these changes for Mad Men is that it ‘has now 5 original series to accommodate and its next available slot for Mad Men was in March 2012. Mad Men was AMC’s first series, which put the cable network on the original programming map. Since then, AMC has successfully launched several other series, most recently The Walking Dead, which supplanted Mad Men as the network’s highest-rated show.’
The Walking Dead stars are now more current in this climate of pop culture, so AMC is going with that as well.
Thankfully Mad Men‘s stars are bonafide celebrity actors now, acting in films –so they’re all good. Shampoo inclusions or not in their 2012 version of their hit show.
America currently is in Genie in a bottle, states of existence. All people are being served up to the tastes of the top 10% of Americans (networks and their writers and puppets too). Go here for a pop music commentary on this ‘United States of I Dream of Jeanie’ reality.

THE HORIWOOD TOP TEN – TUE 1.18.10
Christina Hendricks did the unthinkable at The Golden Globes. In a fashion mishap of Titanic proportions Christina accidentally lost her $850,000 bracelet she wore to The Globes this year.
How wreckless of the lovely Christina. She’s looking a little like a party girl with this post Awards Show publicity. How can we possibly find it in our dark dark hard Hollywood hearts, to forgive Christina for this unfortunate fashion faux pas?
In any event Hendricks takes two spots today on Horiwood.Com. Although the Huffington Post continues to not credit photographers photos as a norm, lacking blogging manners, the HuffPo asks the question “Was Christina Hit or Miss on fashion’s red carpet this year?, with this pic.
That is a terrible hemline. Haven’t Christina’s designers-of-choice heard of the ****ing ***e hemline yet? Gosh – that’s vintage Hollywood, fashion mogul-generating top secret knowledge. Never to be shared outside of California and New Zealand.

CHRISTINA HENDRICKS IS NOT BANANAS ABOUT DIETING
Sexy Christina Hendricks refuses to lose her curves — because she “loves” the way she looks.
Christina Hendricks of Mad Men whose all chi chis and booty with zero waist says she won’t be going on no diet any time soon. In star speak that’s polite festive language for eat your hearts out this Christmas and New Years people, ’tis the season to be jolly–Christina shines for any of us who can’t even form the thought “no KFC.” Hendricks latest press is that dieting is for European stick insects falling over on runways for lack of good golden New Zealand butter in their systems.
If Christina had said she was going on a diet, it would be really bad timing right now, so I like the way she’s curving out with her press this week. The first syllable of the other word for nation–would have sprung to mind, had she not. Good to see she’s one of us fatties at heart.
“People in the industry have been telling me to lose weight for years but I like the way I look,” Christina said.
“I started out as a model and when I went to Italy to build my modeling book, I gained 15 pounds from all the pastas and cappuccinos.”
Hendricks humorously revealed what she’ll be getting for Christmas! Her family must be a little bananas, like most peoples on Christmas day. The Hendricks sound fun! Creative to say the least.

JESSICA RABBIT WAS EXCEPTIONALLY HOT THIS YEAR – WEST HOLLYWOOD HALLOWEEN
Christina Hendricks eat your heart out! Look at Jessica Rabbit and Roger Rabbit photographed 50 yards from my place in West Hollywood.
Too much Hot Ginge Hollywood fun.
I was thinking, Hollywood is one of the few places –where something that is animated in cartoon form becomes real in a human way. This is the art of American culture–such moments are a little surreal.
The lesson–imagine, script, draw your heroes. Then become them if you want to. This is the result of that American celebrity artform.

NEIL PATRICK HARRIS HAS A SCOTT AND GRACE OF HIS OWN
Children are a blessing from the Lord–Book of proverbs
Neil Patrick Harris jand David Burtka have some news. NPH tweeted: “Babies!! On 10/12, Gideon Scott and Harper Grace entered the Burtka-Harris fold. All of us are happy, healthy, tired, and a little pukey.”
Image of NPH and DB with Christina Hendricks at dinner, and in case you’re wondering, no – Christina was not these boys surrogate carrying these twin babes in each of her breasts. Lol!
Having seen the way Neil dotes on his friend Britney Spears and I hear that David is a very sweet guy, who knows what these two babes will grow up to do in life? Good things for the world. And Neil Patrick Harris with baby wipes? For babies. If you know Neil, that’s funny, for a baby wipes TV commercial.

FREE iBREASTCHECK APP VIA THE UK FOR AMERICA’S NATIONAL TREASURES, ROCKS
After research revealed that 50% of all women are forgetting to get regular breast cancer check ups, a new app has been developed for ladies phones and breasts.
iBreastcheck allows the girls, to set a personalized alarm clock, to remind of check up times. Said Bernie Nolan who is being treated for breast cancer:
“This is an incredible development from Breakthrough Breast Cancer. I only wish it had been thought of sooner. The earlier breast cancer is found, the earlier we have a chance of beating it.”
Isn’t this the purpose of technology and medical science knowledge fusing together, for what they’re meant for? Saving lives. Saving breasts, America’s national treasures too!
That’s awesome. Grndr one of these apps, a hot girl’s way to celebrate health, life, well being in the world – and be a man, I say! In order for men and children to be healthy in community, women with the best healthy breasts in America are US all too. Way cool! This app created by the U.K to help that along.
iProstatecheck TM does not sound as sexy for men, as this little number, but that app should happen too on the IT health front for us men. Technology is a gift to preserve and care for Life. Love it today.
Here’s Christina Hendrick‘s who says in Harper’s Bazaar that everyone’s hitting on her, women, men, gay, straight – the whole shabang – and she’s happy about that. “It’s flattering,” says Hendricks.
Um, there is nothing flat about Christina at all, so that was funny! Bump this post on for the ladies you care about and love. IT’S FREE, our favorite.

BETTER TREATMENT FOR WOMEN NEEDED TO DETECT BREAST CANCER SAYS NORWAY
Having once been through the whole breast cancer process with a friend and their family, this is the little I know on the topic:
1. Early detection is the only prevention.
2. Ways breast cancer can be detected are 6 monthly mammograms, and monitoring the white blood cell counts in a woman’s blood regularly.
Here’s what Norway has to say about breast cancer via UPI.Com: “NEW YORK, Sept. 23 (UPI) — A study of women in Norway suggests better treatment, not yearly mammograms, may account for a 10 percent cut in the breast cancer death rate, researchers said.
Researchers tracked 40,075 women in Norway who had received a diagnosis of breast cancer from 1986 to 2005. The women were examined before and after 1996, when the country provided mammograms for women ages 50-69 along with special breast cancer team to treat all women with breast cancer, The New York Times reported Thursday.”
If you’re a girl and love your girls, get them checked out. You know it. In order for men and children to be healthy in the world – women need to be healthy too, which means healthy boobs. That’s just a fact of life in any country. America too.
[Two images of Christina Hendricks via Strange Celebrities - as a reminder to get checked twice yearly (every 6 months), not just screened once each year].
Let’s continue to believe and support a cure for cancer in the world.

PHOTOSHOP REMINDERS – NO PASTE, NO WAIST FOR CHRISTINA HENDRICKS VANISHING WAISTLINE
Christina Hendricks is Mad Men‘s actor, whose known for her hourglass clinching waist.
Sorry, I meant her vibrant red hair. :)
Photoshop Disasters blog spot website, categorizes this surreal image, of Hendricks sans waist and legs, under the blog tag: I’ll Do it When I Get Back from the Pub.
It must be a winner, because Christina gets another mention too, under the blog post: Legless Before Lunchtime.
The beer in the U.K must be strong in graphic designers lunch hour. Talk about a vanishing waistline, this takes the cake.
The copy penned by Michael Hainey was wasted on the graphic artist’s mistake. It describes Mad Men as “Literature. What Matthew Weiner has created isn’t just a television masterpiece–it’s an epic poem for our age.”
A graphic novel tip: “No Paste. No Waist?”

CELEBRITY WOOL KNIT MODEL, CHRISTINA HENDRICKS MODELS HER FRIENDS LAMBS WOOL CREATIONS
This post from Cover Awards website, one of my favs because the State of California’s initials are shared by it: “Check out these photos of Christina Hendricks as an Etsy model,” a website that features handpicked creations, “for her friend’s line of knit scarves. The scarves are sold under her former bridesmaid, Tamara Mello’s, Blackbird Design House brand page. Mello sells handmade scarves for about $130.”
That doesn’t sound like enough. But perhaps Christina’s friend is not doing the knitting, so that’s all fine and dandy. Tamara is such a controversial name. You’d buy a scarf just for that. So Hollywood!
