coffee ads and celebrities

here are several coffee advertisements featuring several hollywood names -- george clooney, arnold schwarzenegger,and david lynch. these commercial spots aren't quite new, but i get a kick out of watching these stars hawking various coffee products in their own inimitable style.


cool and suave, much like the guy himself. oh, and funny, too.


ah-nold in fine form. he gulps 'em down like there's no tomorrow. 'atta boy!


david lynch lays it on rather thick, but he does his pitch well.

tom & giselle

one of my favorite couples (and two of the world's most famous and good looking celebrities) -- finally engaged!



after a passel of questions -- "are they or aren't they?", "was that a stunt?", "what the heck was that all about?" -- football star tom brady and supermodel giselle bundschen have made things official: the games are over and they are intending to marry. when? that's for us to find out. in the meantime, let us enjoy these pictures.

got this in my email

i signed up over at goop (gwyneth paltrow's website) a few days ago, just to see what would come out of it and today i got this in my email.

great ensemble, this.

hmm... gwynnie definitely has a way with clothes. she makes simple clothes look "interesting" simply by wearing them. i know a lot of her detractors are always more than ready with their negative comments (regardless of what she says or does, the knives are always sharpened for quick response), but you have to admit they can't help but take note of her dress, her shoes, her accessories, her movies, her kids, her activities, etc.

incidentally, i like goop's spare, understated pastel layout. it doesn't sport much in the way of flashy designs or bold arresting colors (some have described it as rather bland), but i like it nonetheless.
