Woman Crush Wednesday: Cameron Diaz

1) She's always entertaining to watch- I've seen a lot of movies with Cameron Diaz in it, and I feel like she's just super fun to watch. Even if a movie gets bad reviews and its not great overall, like Bad Teacher for example, its still fun to watch because she's just so good in it. I just think she's one of those movie stars that really brings it to any movie she's in.

2) She can do different types of genres- I know she mostly does Rom Coms but she can step out of her comfort zone and do a lot of different things. I really liked the movie The Box that she was in and that was a psychological thriller type of movie. I may be the only person that liked that movie, but I thought she was great. I've never seen the movie My Sister's Keeper, but that's not a comedy either and she was able to be the mom in that and I think it got pretty good reviews if memory serves me. She was also in that action movie with Tom Cruise a few years ago that my mom liked (I think my mom secretly likes Tom Cruise. I don't think she has a crush on him or anything, but she likes him and I think its a secret. lol.)

3) She's both the straight-girl and the funny girl- In There's Something About Mary, she may have been the title character, but she wasn't the person that was supposed to make you laugh uncontrollably or anything. In Bad Teacher, she was the person you would be laughing out loud at. In The Holiday, she had the more funny of the two stories, but it was also a more serious role for her in my opinion. She isn't boring to watch either way, but I think its good that she can do both.

4) She's got a hot bod- Seriously girl be fit! It's not even like an "ohhh shes so skinny" type of thing, you can tell she works out and keeps her body the way that it is. She's got a tiny stomach, long legs and a nice butt... like how is that possible that people that beautiful exist!

5) She's aged really nicely- This doesn't sound like its a compliment, but I mean it that way. It's not like Cameron Diaz is old, but she isn't 20 anymore. She's gotten older and sometimes in Hollywood that can be really scary. I think she looks just as good now as she did when she was first starting out, if not better. In The Other Woman I thought that her make up looked like it wasn't doing anything for her and that it made her look older, but when she has little make up on (they showed her trailer for sex tape and she didn't seem to have much make up on) she looks amazing. She's just someone that has always been beautiful and will stay that way.

6) She's Believable in every role she's in- She has a lot of really different roles in all of her movies and I think she's totally believable in all of them. In Bad Teacher- she's a bad girl teacher that breaks the rules, does drugs and is just a kind of a bad person. In The Other Woman, she's the sexy mistress of a married man and the best friend to his wife after she finds out. In The Box, she's a mother and a woman who wants a million dollars so badly she presses a button that will kill another person. In What Happens in Vegas she was the tightass business woman who is recovering from one night of fun. In The Holiday she's a woman that's been cheated on and is falling in love with someone else, also sucessful bussinesswoman. In In Her Shoes she's the dyslexic sister that sleeps with her sisters boyfriend and gets kicked out. In There's Something About Mary she's the girl next door that everyone is obsessed with... That's a lot. A lot of movies and a lot of different roles and she does a great job in all of them!

Also once she was on a talk show and she mentioned that her first movie was The Mask. That's a pretty successful first movie and pretty much all of her movies since then has been successful. Maybe not critically, but mostly critically and definitely in the box office... and that I think is because people see that Cameron Diaz is worth the price of admission to see a movie. She's just overall really great and people like her.

7) She seems like a good person- I don't think she seems like one of those celebrity phonies like some people-*cough* Gweneth Paltrow *cough*- she just seems like she's real and has to be a good person. I don't know her personally, but I just think that she seems like she is someone friendly and without an ego and just a good person. And I think that can be supported, she's still friends with a lot of her co-workers. She did a movie with Justin Timberlake even after they broke up, She's been in two movies with Jason Seagel and they seem to be good friends, and she still goes to dinner with Drew Barrymore and her husband. I just think that definitely makes an impression and it means she's good to work with and a real person.

That's it for today. Tomorrow I think I'm going to do a movie review... can you guess what movie?? Lol!

Byeee!

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c...

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f...

Throwback Thursday: 13 Going On 30

So I watched this on VH1 around Christmas Time because it was on... they really need to bring this movie to Netflix because it's pretty fantastic and VH1 doesn't get the whole thing. I didn't catch the very beginning... but I did watch most of it from around the time when Matty gives her the Dream House... so sweet. It was a little weird to watch this movie because when it came out, I was 13 or almost 13... and now I'm closer to being 30... but I still felt more connected to the 13 year old Jenna instead of the adults in the movie. Like I'm not totally sure when I turned almost 30... but I don't like it. I'm still 13 year old Jenna who likes the same music as when I was 13 and has kind of the same style as I did then... I don't know... its just kind of a weird thing and I was freaking out a little bit from it. This is also the movie that introduced me to one of my favorite actresses, Judy Greer! I love Judy Greer, she's so funny and great and s...
