Indeed, Drew Barrymore is dishing out some love advice lately. In the new romantic comedy, Going the Distance, Drew Barrymore plays a woman involved in a passionate long-distance love affair. In real life, Drew says all her relationships are long-distance. Here are Drew’s tips for surviving love at a distance.

  • Write letters. “[They're] the most thoughtful things you can do.” E-mail can be romantic, but tweets and Facebook are NOT.
  • Make a plan. “It is essential, so you have something to look forward to.”
  • Don’t let the separation stress you out. “That can become exhausting, and that wears on the relationship, and then it starts not to work.”
  • Make each other laugh. “I may not have you physically, but if I am laughing about something you said, that is just as sexy…Keep that laughter up.”

I love it! You can see Drew’s new movie, “Going The Distance” in theatres this Friday. Hope everyone is having a fantastic week. Talk tonight :) XoXo -OA

Katy Perry‘s “California Gurls” video got a lot of attention for its special effects — especially Katy’s cream-spewing brassiere. But the trick wasn’t hard to pull off. She tells us, “I just had to brace myself and, like, get my footing right so that the power of the supposed whipped cream…wouldn’t overtake me.

“The cupcake boobs were not hard to do. I just had to brace myself and, like, get my footing right so that the power of the supposed whipped cream — which it wasn’t, it was more like a foam, sorry to burst your dream — the power wouldn’t overtake me.”

Fake lashes are not easy and they aren’t something you can do all the time.. BUT you still want the longest lashes possible.   So when you put your mascara on… start with the top of your lashes and use your mascara wond to pull your lashes out.  You will have show stopping long lashes and you wont have to deal with the hassle of eye lash glue.

Lady Gaga is about to add another record to her ever-growing collection — by becoming the first person in history to be immortalized at all 10 locations of Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum. The folks there will shell out $1.5 million for 10 different likenesses of Lady G — which, a rep tells London’s Daily Star, “is definitely one of the most ambitious projects in our history.” The army of Gagas will go on display next Spring! This is gonna be interesting for sure. Hope you all have a great weekend! Talk to ya on Monday :) XoXo -OA

If you are one of those Lady Gaga fanatics that want big eyes like she did in her “Bad Romance” music video, here’s a warning!  According to a doctor here in NYC, the lenses can make you lose your vision within 24-hours if an infection happens!

According to the Daily Mail, a British Newspaper, people have been purchasing special contact lenses known as Circle Lens Contacts that make your eyes appear larger than they really are.  There is a doctor at Montefiore Medical Center that is warning people about the Circle Lens. Apparently the lenses can cause infections that can make people lose their vision within 24hrs! WOW, that’s really scary!

 Here’s the good and bad news on the lenses, Good News: They are not available in the United StatedBad NewsThey can be ordered online from foreign websites.

I thought her huge eyes were a result of some fancy digital editing and is blindness worth trying to look like Lady Gaga?  If you ask me, it’s definitely not worth it!  I’d rather stick with the silly outfits and crazy hair!

Aristotle was not only one of the best philosophical minds of all time, but he was also a caddy bitch-of-a-critic.  He invented a saying “Deus ex Machina,” which is Latin for “god out of a machine.”  I know that seems odd to bring up in a review for a horror film, but it basically means a great story with a horrible ending.  Aristotle HATED when he would spend the whole play getting deeply invested in the characters who find themselves in an impossibly entertaining and twisted plot just to have the whole freaking thing ruined by an ending (in his case) where a god would simply get lowered on the stage and fix everything.  It’s lazy writing.  The Last Exorcism is just that!  This film is fantastic at first!  It is directed by newcomer Daniel Stamm in a mock documentary approach.  The reason for the documentary is to follow the main character, a preacher played excellently by Patrick Fabian (Big Love), in his quest to show how exorcisms are fake and religion in general is pretty much a sham.  It starts off very funny with some true laugh-out-loud moments.  He then finds himself performing a fake exorcism over the body of young Nell, who’s played by the new and lovely Ashley Bell.  But we quickly learn that she might actually be possessed by a real demon.  The movie goes from funny to really scary in two seconds flat, with a scene that’s more creepy than shock.  We see Bell bend and contort her body into awful and painful positions (these were real too since she has a background in ballet).  With that sudden switch in to 5th gear fear, I was hooked as an audience member.  The movie gets tense and spooky.  More and more discoveries are made about the characters that makes us think that there’s more going on than just a classic ghost story about the devil in an innocent girl.  What started as a comedy, then bloomed into a horror actually starts rolling into a well-crafted mystery.  Then, as if the writers had no idea how to end it, the whole thing comes crashing down in a climax that isn’t scary, isn’t logical, isn’t creative or even entertaining.  It’s like eating a fantastic sandwich that has an aftertaste of old earwax – it’s so bad it ruins the good parts.  I believe that no ending would’ve been better than the ending they created.  The good thing about this film though is that it continues to allow The Exorcist to rein supreme as the scariest film about possession of all time.  What they did in that movie was taboo and broke down walls of taste and preconceived notions of what horror could be. The Last Exorcism impresses at first with it working within the PG-13 perimeters but then feels stifled by them.  I understand that the mock documentary style of filmmaking is hard to squeeze an ending out of.  People bitched about the endings of Cloverfield, Paranormal Activity and Quarantine too.  But those films understood the problem and came to the conclusion that less is more and perhaps the simpler solution is the better ending.  I would agree with that and it would’ve helped this film.  Now I don’t want anyone to think that I don’t want movies to have plots twists and turns in them.  Just make sure that, as a writer, you don’t get twisted up in your twists and you can still explain your way out.  An ending is more important than the whole of the film and The Last Exorcism is a prime example of that.
The Last Exorcism  (Rated PG-13)
Gavin Grade: C-
