Coco aka Conan O'Brien has just informed us his decison regarding the 12:05 move of the "Tonight Show. I'm pretty much obsessed with Conan and his copper bouffant. Here's his response below:


People of Earth:
In the last few days, I've been getting a lot of sympathy calls, and I want to start by making it clear that no one should waste a second feeling sorry for me. For 17 years, I've been getting paid to do what I love most and, in a world with real problems, I've been absurdly lucky. That said, I've been suddenly put in a very public predicament and my bosses are demanding an immediate decision.
Six years ago, I signed a contract with NBC to take over The Tonight Show in June of 2009. Like a lot of us, I grew up watching Johnny Carson every night and the chance to one day sit in that chair has meant everything to me. I worked long and hard to get that opportunity, passed up far more lucrative offers, and since 2004 I have spent literally hundreds of hours thinking of ways to extend the franchise long into the future. It was my mistaken belief that, like my predecessor, I would have the benefit of some time and, just as important, some degree of ratings support from the prime-time schedule. Building a lasting audience at 11:30 is impossible without both.
But sadly, we were never given that chance. After only seven months, with my Tonight Show in its infancy, NBC has decided to react to their terrible difficulties in prime-time by making a change in their long-established late night schedule.
Last Thursday, NBC executives told me they intended to move the Tonight Show to 12:05 to accommodate the Jay Leno Show at 11:35. For 60 years the Tonight Show has aired immediately following the late local news. I sincerely believe that delaying the Tonight Show into the next day to accommodate another comedy program will seriously damage what I consider to be the greatest franchise in the history of broadcasting. The Tonight Show at 12:05 simply isn't the Tonight Show. Also, if I accept this move I will be knocking the Late Night show, which I inherited from David Letterman and passed on to Jimmy Fallon, out of its long-held time slot. That would hurt the other NBC franchise that I love, and it would be unfair to Jimmy.
So it has come to this: I cannot express in words how much I enjoy hosting this program and what an enormous personal disappointment it is for me to consider losing it. My staff and I have worked unbelievably hard and we are very proud of our contribution to the legacy of The Tonight Show. But I cannot participate in what I honestly believe is its destruction. Some people will make the argument that with DVRs and the Internet a time slot doesn't matter. But with the Tonight Show, I believe nothing could matter more.
There has been speculation about my going to another network but, to set the record straight, I currently have no other offer and honestly have no idea what happens next. My hope is that NBC and I can resolve this quickly so that my staff, crew, and I can do a show we can be proud of, for a company that values our work.
Have a great day and, for the record, I am truly sorry about my hair; it's always been that way.

Yours,
Conan"

Watch out for the big girls

So V Magazine "Big Girl" issue is on stands January 14th. You probulary read it on every other blog and seen the pics. But I must say, I'm very excited about this dare I say trend? and can't wait to have the actual mag in my hands. Does this mean that we as women will stop crucifying ourselves because of our jiggly thighs, uncontrollable cellulite, or rolls??

Probulary not but...

Let us embrace ourselves Girlies and love the Inner Big Girl or Outer Big Girl.

Let us say NO to salads and YES to steaks.

Let' us say NO to celery and YES to ice cream.

*In celebration of this Issue, I Ann Bryant will not go to the gym this week*

My ex-coworker has an obsession with the country Japan and the various fashion forward trends. Although she (her name slips me) loves all of the styles, she adored the Lolita style. To past time at work, we would spend hours conversing about the different styles of Lolita, fashion forwardness, and the lack of influence in the U.S.

So anyway... today I was looking on style.com (my fav) and did a small piece on Lolita inspired fashion. The focus is on the sweet girl Lolita... but there's also Gothic, Punk, Classic etc . Whether it's bows, polka dots or hearts feel free to let your inner "Lolita" free. I love this girly, innocent look for a nice spring day.

Wear these chunkies with skinnies or leggings to balance out the full look. It's a great way to add texture to a dull or boring outfit while keeping warm.
