I used to be one of those self-righteous types who declared I'd sooner break up with a man than stoop to snoop. This stance wasn't because I was noble or had never been tempted—I'm not and I have. I just remember all too well the day my mother read my journal aloud to my entire family. I was 17 and, as you can probably imagine, that book was bursting to the seams with embarrassing, angst-laden, mawkish, teenage drama. To say I was mortified ... well, that doesn't begin to describe the way I felt. The Frisky: Dear Wendy: "Should … Read More

I believe I am the last person on Earth to see MyHusbandIsAnnoying.com. They even made it to The Today Show before I ventured over to the blog. You feel pretty behind the eight-ball if Kathy Lee knows about something before you do. Hoda seems pretty hip (at least the Michaela Watkins version of her on SNL).

At any rate, the annoying husband is one Mark Joyella. If you've ever lived in south Florida or NYC, you've likely seen Joyella on your local news as a reporter, but you wouldn't know what kind … Read More

Certain words I dread ("We need to schedule two more dental appointments") while others I would kill to hear ("Ann Coulter's physician confirms sex-change operation").

And then there are statements that defy imagination, such as; "My husband gave me the greatest birthday present last night—a public flogging." I actually overheard one of my exotic dance students say these exact words last week.

Now, I'm not exactly unfamiliar with the BDSM scene. My education began a few years ago, while browsing the aisles of my favorite sex shop. A man came up to me and asked, "Are you a Dom or … Read More

The other night, when I was having dinner with a guy friend who told me my engagement history might scare off some guys, we also discussed the issue of privacy in a relationship and how big of a deal it can be when that privacy is violated. He maintains that checking your partner's email, cell phone call log, and text messages is totally wrong, whereas I think it's wrong, but not pathological or evil. Frankly, I know many women who do the occasional cell phone check or email glance (and a few women who do oh-so-much more), but what … Read More

Some people scrapbook or write in a journal to express their creativity. Gwyneth Paltrow has evidently decided to blog and make the world a better place and it is rumored to be causing some strain in her marriage. Gwyneth’s blog, GOOP, is a lifestyle blog where Gwyneth gives you advice on how to live your best life, providing tips on clothes, detox diets, travel, spirituality and basically how to be Gwyneth. Think of it as the lovechild of Martha Stewart and Oprah Winfrey with a splash of the Dalai Lama thrown in. Widely panned  … Read More

In what must have been one of the most closely watched baby bumps of the year,Us Weekly reports that actress Jennifer Garner and her husband, Ben Affleck, are the proud parents of another (I’m sure) adorable baby girl. This makes the second child for the couple, who are already the parents of Violet, 3.

I have to say that I appreciate the way Garner and Affleck handle their private lives. Even though Jennifer was photographed a million times with a baby bump (hey, a girl has to leave the house) and was recently photographed Read More

This just in from I’m Not Obsessed – Justin Long, adorable actor best known for the Mac commercials, has decided that he’s not dating celebrities anymore.  After his very high profile relationship with Drew Barrymore ended and a recent fling with Kirsten Dunst went the way of the dodo, Long has decided that dating in Hollywood is just too exposing.  Evidently, the actor is a man who respects his privacy and should he ever decide to fish in those waters again, he says, “The one thing that I have learned is that I will be very careful … Read More

File this under: in case you were still wondering.  According to Starpulse, Ben Affleck has admitted the reason why his relationship with actress/singer/media mogul Jennifer Lopez ended: too accessible to the media.  The couple met in 2002 and dated until they ended their relationship in 2004 shortly before they were due to be married.  Bennifer was a very high profile relationship, with Affleck starring in her music video, “Jenny from the Block” and the two pairing onscreen in box-office bomb, Gigli.  Affleck says, “I think Jen and I made a mistake in that we fell in love, … Read More

After keeping mum about her relationship and now marriage to rap mogul Jay-Z, Beyonce finally breaks her silence in this month’s upcoming Essence magazine.  As E News Now reports, she reveals details about their long-term relationship, stating that ““…What Jay and I have is real. It’s not about interviews or getting the right photo op. It’s real.”   She evidently comes clean about engagement rings (she thinks they’re silly), the wedding (she kept it small and intimate) and how she knew marriage was in the cards all along. 

I personally love the fact that she kept … Read More
