Sharen Turney, chief executive of Victoria's Secret, has proclaimed that the brand has become "too sexy" and thinks the company should get back to its more sophisticated roots.

Rewind: This Week's Buzz 2008-02-09 07:00:00

Fingers crossed people! — this strike looks like it could be resolved any minute now. This week I talked to a member of the Writers Guild of America to learn about life on strike while other striking writers hilariously penned some endings to a few of my favorite shows, like Gossip Girl (cartooned above). The Super Bowl came and went and so did all the hype around the commercials. I told you Read more

Dogs and horses, I'm sold! Of all the Super Bowl hits and misses, I've gotta say that the Budweiser commercial of a horse with a dream topped my list. Off the bat, I love checking out these horses and their doggie pals — did you know that the Dalmatian was introduced to the traditional Budweiser Clydesdale procession on Mar. 30, 1950 to celebrate the opening of the Newark brewery?! These Read more

In light of Sunday's Super Bowl results, I'd have to say that Tom Brady is making a habit of losing these days. In addition to his team's Sunday loss, Brady has unloaded his 3,412-square-foot, three bedroom, three-and-a-half bath Boston condo for $5,285,000, according to Real Estalker. Property records show that he paid $4,125,000 for the 10 room condo four years ago, so I guess he's gained a Read more

Love It or Leave It: Paula Abdul's Pre-Game Performance

In case you missed it, Paula Abdul performed her new single "Dance Like There's No Tomorrow" before the Super Bowl. The performance came on the heels of Abdul's announcement that she plans to have a new, full album to release by Summer. The performance isn't nearly as devastating as, say, Britney's VMA disaster, but it's not necessarily impressive, either — especially what with all the Read more

Love It or Hate It? Jordin Sparks's Black-Tip Manicure

Jordin Sparks's Nail Polish at the Super Bowl XLII

Last night at the Super Bowl XLII, American Idol winner Jordin Sparks walked out onto the Arizona field to sing a very smooth and soulful "Star-Spangled Banner." For the most part I thought she looked great with her center part and loose waves, her iridescent pinky/purple eye shadow, and her understated black dress. But her silvery white and black-tipped manicure was questionable. What did you Read more
