So I was watching music videos on a European music channel and caught one by Flight of the Conchords. Wow...
I was first introduced to these guys by my older brother and thought their show "Flight of the Conchords" was quirky (indy style), fresh, and just plain genius. I will say that it's definitely an acquired taste as the humor is typical and it can be quite slow at times but that adds to its overall character. If it's not your thing initially, don't turn it off right away- it's worth keeping on and seeing where the plots go. Today I was checking out the newest dance hits here in Europe, as I love dance music, and as i was flipping channels one caught my eye- not for its pumping beat but because it looked so old-school and wacky. I was right haha. You have to check these guys from New Zealand- both their TV show (which HBO has picked up) and their music videos (which are a huge part of their show). They're about to take over comedy.
I love the episode where they take acid and hang out with groupies (oddly enough I just wrote a post about that same subject...sorta). They are obviously really smart guys and I can't wait to see the next season.
Lily! Wow, your blog is incredible! HOW EXCITING! :)! I enjoy reading about your adventures! You seriously inspire me lol (aspiring journalist here!) I'll be reading for updates! Stay sweet!
Lily u rock! u re so cool! and Omg!! u interviewed Scarlett, we love u! haha we re from Uruguay, so we talk in spanish but, in english too haah, cool site, xoxo, Val & Ugie.
Hi Lily! OMG! I was almost in tears--clutching my invisible pearls--as I read your blog posting about our day in lovely Fullerton. Let me now praise you: You are by far, not only, one of the prettiest girls I have ever worked with, but so professional! I loved every minute of it. You were sweet, gracious, classy and intelligent. The "quadruple threat"! The cherry on the cake was our conversation about Chanel and how much you knew about the art of Haute Couture--there are fashion design students about to graduate that don't even know half as much as you (and I should know, I teach them!). I really hope we get to work again--or at least, have you come by my studio and play Dress Up!!! A big kiss and hugs, with much admiration, Nick
hey lily, congrats on everything your doing , you look really beautiful, a little different from the 6 year old girl i used to know take care tommy xxxx
Hey Lilly , I was that girl @ Joeseph Martin today , that u complimented on my hair. i think you are a very well rounded person. I was to shy of telling you. BTW c u again @ the salon!
That was so refreshing to read.. (blog: march 27th).. I believe it to be completely true.. I make sure to keep an active conversation going with my folks. It's amazing how easy it is to bridge that 'huge-little' gap between our generations if you genuinely take the time to try..
I've had a few different occasions where friends and I would end up discussing how our current 'day-in-age' lacks true role models.. Who do we admire these days? Just got me thinking for awhile..
You have such a wonderful soul, Lily. This is an amazing idea and my hope is that everyone will realize what a gift this blog really is.. You have created a safe and intelligent environment for any generation to speak its truthful mind.. And that, IS worth writing for..
Lily Collins is studying broadcast journalism at USC, is set to appear in interstitial programming spots airing throughout the day and night on Nickelodeon, reporting from the sets of Nick series, movie premieres, awards shows, concerts and other celebrity events. She also will host daily 30-second updates centered on current music, movie, fashion and celebrity news and join current host J Boogie to contribute reports to the weekend TEENick block.
This marks the first time that Nickelodeon has inked a deal for a roving entertainment correspondent.
"Lily is a natural in front of the camera," Nickelodeon executive vp talent Paula Kaplan said. "She can think on her feet and is comfortable interviewing a wide range of people. As a rising young star herself, she's totally plugged into the latest entertainment and pop culture trends."
