Beyonce + Football = Pepsi Half-Time Show

Half-time at any sporting event usually means it’s time to have a break.You get up, get some snacks, grab a full meal or even walk around the stadium to stretch your legs. That’s just when you’re watching any game during the regular season but we’re not talking about the regular season today. We’re talking about half-time at the SUPER BOWL! The last game of the year. The game that everyone who’s anyone shows up to or watches. The game where the winner takes all and has bragging rights forever. This means only the best entertainment will do during half-time. For Super Bowl XLVII the Pepsi Halftime Show will feature none other than the once single lady,  Beyoncé!
 
 
 

 
 
 
Are you ready for some Beyoncé?
 
 
 
I think everyone is ready for this Pepsi halftime show! I’m anxious to see who Queen Bey pulls onto the stage to perform with her. Thinking there may be more than one surprise performer stepping into the stage lights. Perhaps THREE even! Yes, three! This feels like it would be the perfect time for a Destiny’s Child reunion don’t-cha think?! 2013 definitely needs some more girl power! Maybe a mash-up of chart toppers from the trio would be just what the music Gods ordered. Or, will we see what fans always love to see… Beyoncé pulling her amazing and talented rapper husband Jay-Z onstage! I personally vote for all of the above! Practice makes perfect for a secret big time production such as this.
 
 
Beyoncé is definitely practicing up a storm!
 

 
 
This will be a BIG production!
 

 
 
 
 
We will soon know what songs will be coming through that microphone!
 

 
 
 
 
This we know for sure, we will be entertained no matter what! The pics from rehearsals (taken for Beyoncé’s  personal Tumblr page) above, show a performance ensemble of dancers, bands and singers so the show is sure please our senses. Countdown to kick-off has begun and there are only a few hours left to go. We won’t have to wait much longer for the big game or the big Pepsi Halftime Show.
 
Bey looks ready!

70th Annual Golden Globes 2013

Were you one of those people who got all dressed up to watch the rich and famous while eating popcorn? Nah, me either!

If you follow me on Twitter or Facebook (by the way facebook.com/curvesandcoffee go ahead and hit the LIKE button for me, I know you want to!) you know that I did a little or a lot of live-tweeting! Tweeting while a television program is on, has to be one of the greatest joys of Twitter! It’s like watching tv with a room full of friends that all live in different parts of the world but we all come together for that one event. Try it out sometime!

So the Golden Globes honored some of our favorite actors and actresses of film and prime time TV shows. It’s also the first of many award shows of the new year (after the Peoples Choice Awards) and serves and the opening ceremony so to speak for the big awards such as the Oscars.

This years show was hosted by two of the most hilarious women in Hollywood, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler! They’re so incredibly funny that normally I’d turn the channel after the red carpet arrivals but last night, I managed to make it through most of the show!

Speaking of red carpet…here are my favorite looks from last night in no particular order of course…

Hey Good Looking: Megan Fox

Someone is back to looking like her old self again!  (Someone other than me this week.)

Hey there Ms. Megan Fox or Mrs. Brian Austin-Green and mother of Noah, looking good and looking great! Can you believe she just had a baby?!  Me either!  I tweeted yesterday about how good she’s looking and it was nowhere near a play on the new mother. Honestly, it absolutely slipped my mind!  It finally dawned on me while I was searching for the designer of the dress she has on above and below. Can’t remember where I saw it but the title was “new mother Megan Fox” and there was a double take.  Whoopsies, Rena forgot.

Regardless of any of that stuff, I saw these pics and my first thought was…wowzers, she’s back to looking like the Megan from Transformers…sultry and sexy instead of the different look she had going on for quick minute there after Transformers.  So, Megan…welcome back!

She was spotted on the red carpet premiere of  “This is 40” a sequel to “Knocked Up” in theaters December 21st starring Leslie Mann, her beautiful Apatow daughters, Paul Rudd, and Megan Fox. .

At the premiere in California on 12/12/12
Dress: Roland Mouret
Now, can we talk about Fox’s Locks?!  I mean, come on!  It’s glorious!  I want it and I want it now but I’m just going to pout because if you can remember…I just got my long locks cut!  Wonder how I can achieve this look without getting extensions LOL maybe I need extensions.
Can’t forget the accessories!  
Shoes:  Pigalle Spikes $1,195 by Christian Louboutin
Clutch:  Knot Intrecciato Metal Mesh/Snakeskin $2,250 Bottega Veneta
So yea…looking good!

The Twilight Saga: The Cast Then and Now

 
Ok, I may know what you’re thinking…
What? Why?  Is she?
LOL, yes I am.
 
 I’ve seen all of the Twilight series. The first film happened to be on network television one night while I was at home bored so I tuned in.  It was pretty awful acting from a movie buffs point of view. Give the directors points because it intrigued me enough to find out what happened in the next film.  The rest is, shall we say, history!  Don’t kill me Twihards, Twihearts and other Twilight lovers, I enjoy the actors very much!  If you’re still here reading with me and haven’t clicked away, thanks!  We can probably go see a movie together one day!
 




Since this is one of the biggest movie releases of the holiday season (next to my ultimate favorite Skyfall) it’s only fitting that we take a look at a few of the cast members that have grown on me through the years.
 
Taylor Lautner
 
Then 2008 & Now 2012
 
 
 
Kristen Stewart
 
Then 2008 & Now 2012
 
Now, this ensemble needed a couple snapshots of its’ own!  K.Stew…I think I love you!  Everyone has either stated they love or hate this lace jumper.  I believe she pulls it off!  Style is what you make it, she wore this with confidence and it shows!
 
Designer: Zuhair Murad
 
 
 
Robert Pattinson
 
Then 2008 & Now 2012
 
 
 
The Couple
 
Then 2008 & Now 2012
The Threesome Together
Then 2009 & Now 2012

Now can you see how these three have grown on me?!  After looking at all these pics, I’m kinda in the mood for a little nibble! (That’s a vampire joke…nevermind)
 
Happy Movie Going!
 
 

Best Dressed at the 2012 Emmy’s

Who really watches the Emmy’s?  I mean, really, watches them?  Most of us are tuned into whatever channel has the red carpet arrivals and after that it’s back to whatever we were doing.  Personally, I glace in every now and then to see if something funny is happening but that’s about it.  Know what I love?  The dresses!!  The jewels!! The shoes!! Sometimes that hair.  I pulled together lots of pics from the arrivals that you can see here in the previous post….H E R E in an easy to view slide show.
Everyone looked absolutely amazing but of course as with everything in life…you can’t have everything.  So, my fave dresses and women in those dresses are in this tiny (maybe medium) spill of glamour!  Take a looksie!

Monique Lhuillier and gorg shoes by Christian Louboutin
This is definitely an amazing color!  The dress, shoes and her incredibly cute pixie cut is freaking adorbs!  She looks comfy too, bonus!
Ariel Winter
in
Katherine Kidd
This is my absolute top look from last night!  Would it be wrong to ask the designer to make this exact dress for me to wear around the house?  Probably so but I want it!  Last year, this 14 year old, yes 14, wore a lil bit of cleave, this is definitely age appropriate.  Cute.





Emily VanCamp
in
J. Mendel
Van Cleef & Arpels jewels & Judith Leiber bag
(Revenge…September 30th people!)
That smokey color is amazing!  It was flowy but was still very sexy!
Hayden Panettiere
in
Marchesa
Ok, this dress is absolutely beautiful…no questions asked.
Think there was something off about it and the only thing I could think of was Hayden’s height…definitely would’ve flowed better on someone taller.
Lucy Liu
in
Atelier Versace
On the red carpet, she said this dress was heavy, it looked like it!  I enjoyed that she wore because she looks fantastic!  The dress looks like it’s dripping hot metal…talk about an entrance!
Sofia Vergara
in
Zuhair Muraid
Hell-O Sofia!  At first glance, totally not feeling but then, she turned around (hence why that pic is first) it’s mermaid gone absolutely sexy! And the color, WHOA!
Ms. Kelly Osbourne
(and her gorge hair)
in
Zac Posen
Love, love, love this dress and her hair!  I just wish she’d pick a different color now but it went extremely well with this lilac tone!
Kat Dennings & the twins
Honorable mention to her bf
Nick Zano (I love his casual look!)
in
J. Mendel
Gotta admit, all I can see in these pics are her boobs!  The cut on this dress did the damn thang, seriously!  I didn’t even see her pull on the top while she was walking!
Julie Bowen
in
Monique Lhuillier
Thank you Julie Bowen, for pulling out something neon!  On a night like this, at first, didn’t think I was gonna see much in the color department but OMG!  The ruching, the bandeau style top. Love it!
Padma Lakshmi
in
Monique Lhuillier
No words for amazing she looks in this dress, the dress itself and the color!
Christina Hendricks
in
Christian Siriano
Ok, there was clearly a theme last night and that theme was cleavage!  I’m not mad at it!  Being curvy, I embrace big boobage…where it right like Christina did and you’ll look incredible!  The color she’s wearing here is so perfect with her red locks and peachy/salmo lips…loves it!
Ok kiddos!  You’ve seen the gowns, the shoes, the jewels and the clutches…which star had your favorite look from Emmy night 2012?
