9 Celebs to Follow on Twitter …

Celebs on Twitter — following them and reading their antics is one of my favorite time wasters! I tend to think Twitter is best for spreading joy, so I like to follow celebs on Twitter who keep it light, and funny, not serious. Example: as much as I adore Eddie Izzard, I don’t follow him on Twitter because he uses it to tweet about his work with UNICEF. Not that I have an issue with UNICEF… I happen to think it’s fantastic that Izzard works with them, I just wish he’d JOKE more, guilt less. So if you feel the same, keep reading! Here are 9 celebs to follow on Twitter.

1. Conan O’Brien

@ConanOBrien
I freely admit I wasn’t much of a Conan fan until I started following him on Twitter. He was the first celeb on Twitter I ever followed, and he’s freaking HILARIOUS. He tweets about once a day, and each little chirp is a gem. A recent favorite — “Just got out of a parking ticket by confessing to a murder I didn’t commit.”

2. Bronx Zoo’s cobra

@BronxZoosCobra
Last year, when a cobra from the Bronx Zoo escaped his enclosure, it became international news. Apparently, this particular cobra isn’t just a clever escape artist, he’s also quite technologically savvy, harnessing the power of the internet to plan his next attempt. He’s clever, charming, and witty — too bad he’s a cobra, and not a single guy… he’d totally be my type…

3. Russell Brand

@rustyrockets
One of m favorite comedic actors of late is Russell Brand. His tweets aren’t as funny as his films (mostly because you can’t see his facial expressions), but they’re still a riot. One of his recent tweets — “I am on the Thames. I came to encourage Walliams. I am now in the hands of pirates between Henley and Hambledon. HELP ME!”

4. Chelsea Handler

@chelseahandler
The writing in my first book has been compared to that of Chelsea Handler, except without all the sex. Because she’s a laugh a minute, I’m inclined to be flattered. She’s one of the few women celebs on Twitter that I follow… though most of her tweets are links to her upcoming shows and stuff, she still comes up with a zinger on occasion.

5. Severus Snape

@_Snape_
Is it wrong that my favorite character from the Harry Potter series is Snape, at least on Twitter? I mean, Ron’s tweets are interesting and often funny, too, but Snape’s take the cake. He’s as wry, wicked, and witty as he is in print in the original books, or as played by the marvelous Alan Rickman. BTW, I do not follow Alan Rickman on Twitter, just Snape.

6. Sarah Silverman

@SarahKSilverman
Here is the second of two female celebs on Twitter that I follow, Sarah Silverman. She’s wicked funny, and so smart! Her tweets have an edge to them, and it seems that she does pay attention to what’s going on with her fans and followers.

7. Jimmy Fallon

@jimmyfallon
I’ve been a fan of Jimmy Fallon and his brand of comedy for a long time. He’s hilarious! I don’t watch his talk show, but I do follow him on Twitter, and his humor translates well in 140 characters — not every celeb on Twitter works in that tight parameter very well.

8. Bill Cosby

@BillCosby
Have you noticed a theme yet? Because I think Twitter is best used for humor, most of the celebs on Twitter I follow are comedians. I follow Bill Cosby because he actually seems to be tweeting on his own, and because he replies to people who tweet to him, and because he’s funny.

9. Ellen DeGeneres

@TheEllenShow
Here’s the third female celeb I follow on Twitter. She’s so positive, and so open and obviously caring — and funny! I love Ellen!
There are so many celebs on Twitter, hopefully this list will help you decide which of them to follow! Or maybe you already follow some of these celebs as they tweet? Who do you follow, and why? Which celebs on Twitter do you avoid? Do tell!

7 Inspiring Celebrities of 2011 …

Celebrities of 2011… how do I pick just 7 of them that inspire me? There are so many inspiring celebs, it wasn’t easy, but I’ve thought long and hard about it, done loads of research, agonized over making some necessary cuts, but here they are. These are my picks for the top 7 most inspiring celebrities of 2011.

1. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr

How can a man who’s been gone so long still be such an inspirational celebrity in 2011? He’s never stopped being a role model, an inspiration, but now his legacy can inspire and inform a new generation of admirers… his memorial in Washington D.C. opened late this summer, and I can’t wait to visit. He was a visionary, and is still such an inspiration, to so many around the world.

2. Hannah and Olivia from “Biggest Loser”

Sisters Olivia Ward and Hannah Curlee were my two favorite contestants on last this year’s Season 11 of “Biggest Loser,” and when Olivia won, I was thrilled. Together, the pair lost an amazing 249 pounds, and they faced their fears over the air, making what is often a personal, private journey into a learning experience, an inspiration for all of us.

3. Jennifer Aniston

If there’s one word that sums up Jennifer Aniston, it would be “grace.” She’s handled the end of her marriage to fellow celeb Brad Pitt with grace. She’s handled an unrelenting stream of unworthy suitors and boyfriends, again with grace. And most recently, she’s even handled sniping, mean-spirited (although possibly “out of context”) statements by Mr. Pitt about their ill-fated marriage, all with (again!) grace.

4. Lady Gaga

I’m not saying she has fashion sense. But like her or not, her message is inspirational: love who you are, and don’t ever try to be anything else. She’s also come out against bullying, for LGBT equal rights, and even designed a bracelet to sell on her website to benefit relief efforts after the earthquake and tsunami in Japan.

5. Oprah Winfrey

I personally cannot stand Oprah Winfrey. She annoys me, on so many levels, but I have to admit, she’s served as an inspiration for millions of women around the world, literally, for decades. She’s one of the most powerful, influential, and inspirational women in show biz, and now that she’s launched her own channel, she’s about to kick it up a notch.

6. Liz Murray

Maybe you’ve never heard of Liz Murray, currently a motivational speaker; I hadn’t heard of her either until I read about her in the Daily Mail this January. She is truly an inspiration, having overcome every obstacle life can throw at someone, and shining.

7. Justin Bieber

I know what you’re thinking. Yes, I am an adult woman who finds young, squeaky-clean Justin Bieber inspiring. Unless you’ve seen the movie about his rise to fame, called “Never Say Never,” released in 2011. You really can’t judge until you see the movie. Truly, I had no idea… I thought he was just another flash in the pan… but I was wrong, and now I’m inspired.
Whether you love them or loathe them, these are the celebs that have inspired me this year. Which of these inspirational celebrities of 2011 are your favorites? Or is there someone, a favorite celeb or public figure, that’s inspired you more? Please share!

As a woman with a beauty mark of my own, I’ve often admired celebs with them too, since they are, after all, just like me! Most are women (do we even notice celeb men with them?), and almost all of them are also incredibly gorgeous — no wonder they’re called beauty marks! Here are 8 celebs with beauty marks…

1. Cindy Crawford

This 1990s icon was the first super-model I’d ever seen with a beauty mark, and she was famous for it, especially because she refused to cover it up. While some said she was gorgeous in spite of her mark, I thought she was beautiful because of it! It made her unique!

2. Marilyn Monroe

Any list of celebs with beauty marks has to include Marilyn! Even now, so many years after her death, she’s still considered to have been one of the most beauty women of our time. I love the close-ups of her beautiful face, because then you can see her beauty mark is genuine, not drawn on, as some have suggested.

3. Eva Mendes

My beauty spot is in almost the same place as Eva’s, so naturally she’s one of my favorite celebs with beauty marks! I love her casual sexiness, and that in most of her candid photos, she’s smiling.

4. Goldie Hawn

Goldie Hawn may be known now as Kate Hudson’s mother, but for decades she was a sex symbol in her own right, complete with an iconic beauty mark. In a few of her black and whites from the 1970s, her mark is covered up, but I love the shots (and the movies!) where she’s natural, and shows her mark!

5. Shannyn Sossamon

She’s one of my favorite actresses, with her sassy edge and her short, short hair… and her beauty mark! I wish she acted in more movies… I loved her in “Wristcutters” and almost flipped when I saw her guest role as a maybe-victim in an episode of SVU.

6. Paula Abdul

She might be something of a train wreck, but song and dance sensation Paula Abdul is very pretty. When she first started in the business, she may have been tempted to cover her beauty mark, but I think she realized early on it made her stand out. Now she stands out because of her bizarre behavior (I suspect drinking?), but then she stood out because she was so talented and gorgeous!

7. Sherilyn Fenn

Though early in her career, she starred in some stinkers, Fenn rose to stardom with her role as Audrey Horne in cult classic Twin Peaks. I love the location of her beauty mark (by her eyebrow) and the fact that, even in her worst roles, she never covered it up… at least not as far as I could tell.

8. Mandy Moore

Who doesn’t adore sweet Mandy Moore? She’s such a pretty girl, and such a talented actress… and yes, she’s another celeb with a beauty mark! I’ve just looked back at this list and realized that nearly all of these celebs also have dark hair… a coincidence?

I know there are many more celebrities with beauty marks, but these are the ones I’ve admired most, and the ones I think are the prettiest! I especially adore Goldie Hawn… and Cindy Crawford, for not covering it up! Which of these celebs has a beauty mark most like yours? Or is there another beauty-marked celeb I’ve left off my list?

1. Daniel Radcliffe on the Last Day of Shooting Harry Potter

He admitted that he wept like a child. Awww what a sweetheart! Check out the link for more teasers on his interview with Larry King.

2. Pia Toscano Signs with Interscope

Pia may have been voted off but she’s still a winner. This talented lady will release her single next week, so watch out for that.

3. Steal Freida Pinto’s Elegant Style

Check out the beautiful Freida in a simple halter top and white pencil skirt. You can copy her look on the cheap. Check out College Candy to know what items to buy.

4. Adele is Better Now and Will Continue Tour in August

Oh, thank goodness! The incredibly talented Adele had been resting for about a month now due to laryngitis.

5. Cy Waits on Breakup with Paris Hilton

According to him: “In my next relationship I expect honesty, strong values, true communication, commitment, mutual trust and respect, something I didn’t necessarily have recently. At the end of the day, I want my partner and I to have the same ethics.” Hmm….

Another fantastic blog for affordable style, Frugal Fashionista is full of great posts on celeb style for less, designer deals, beauty products for the budget-conscious, and items under $10.
