What's Buzzworthy: Girls With Guitars

BuzzSugar — Wed, 24 Jan 2007 16:42:22 PST

For last week's Buzzworthy challenge, I asked you guys to bookmark your favorite albums by girls with guitars. It's tough to resist a solid album from a good female singer-songwriter; some of my favorites include Cat Power, Aimee Mann, or that old standby, Tapestry by Carole King. Here are some of my favorite picks from BuzzSugar readers.

Giant Drag, Hearts and Unicorns. Bookmarked by WhiplashGirlchild.

Jewel, Pieces of You. Bookmarked by Missyosigirl, who says "The last time I saw Jewel was that she was scantily clad dancing with a bunch of backup dancers with her! Now I miss Jewel and her guitar."

What's Buzzworthy? Girls With Guitars

BuzzSugar — Thu, 18 Jan 2007 14:10:01 PST

I'm not crazy about the new Rosie Thomas album, These Friends of Mine. It's pleasant enough, but if I want to listen to a good female singer-songwriter, I'd much rather put on some Cat Power (pictured), Aimee Mann, or that old standby, Tapestry by Carole King.

So I want to know: What are you favorite albums by girls with guitars? Tell me by using BuzzSugar's cool Buzzworthy feature to bookmark CDs by female singer-songwriters. Just find them on the Web, bookmark them as Buzzworthy, and tag or title your choices with the phrase "Girls With Guitars." Then, I'll post the readers' favorites next Wednesday.

Abigail Breslin Rocks Out in the Janie Jones Trailer

Rose Curiel — Fri, 02 Sep 2011 11:17:23 PDT

Janie Jones premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival back in April, and the movie is heading to theaters this October. In the trailer for the film starring Abigail Breslin and Alessandro Nivola, we see a junkie mother (Elisabeth Shue) dropping off her 13-year-old daughter Janie (Breslin) at the seedy club where the girl's rocker dad Ethan (Nivola) is about to take the stage. The dumbfounded father, who up until that moment didn't know he had a daughter, is left to balance drugs, booze, and fatherhood as he hits the road with his band and daughter in an effort to revive his flailing career.

When his band members can't deal with Ethan's reckless behavior anymore and abandon the tour, the father-daughter bonding can finally begin. Cue Ethan stumbling upon Janie playing the guitar in an empty alleyway, and the pair conveniently have a shared interest to fuel their relationship. Though the film is inspired by a true story, the preview makes the happenings look a little too easy - especially when Janie's dad starts using her songs. Still, it's fun to see Breslin growing up and into herself as a more serious actress. Judge for yourself when you

Jennifer Aniston Is Red-Hot in a Cleavage-Baring Dress For Her Perfume Signing

Lauren Turner — Thu, 05 May 2011 15:29:54 PDT

Jennifer Aniston stopped by a Sephora store in NYC to promote her eponymous perfume this afternoon. She looked radiant in a tight, bright dress that showed plenty of skin at the event, during which she greeted fans and signed bottles of her scent. The beachy clean Jennifer Aniston fragrance launched last year, and the star already made appearances on The View and in Mexico to promote the project. Jennifer has since gotten back to work on her movies though, having recently wrapped up directing her short film, Project Five, in LA. She'll continue her work on a full-length feature, The Goree Girls, which will apparently show off her singing and guitar-playing skills. We'll also get to see Jennifer Aniston up on the big screen with her Summer comedy Horrible Bosses, which is out July 8.

Katherine Heigl Brings Her On-Key Daughter Naleigh Along For a Visit to Grandma's House

Katherine Heigl pushed her new short hair back behind her sunglasses yesterday when she headed out to visit her mother Nancy's home in LA with her young daughter, Naleigh. Nancy was able to go along with Katherine and her husband, Josh, on a recent Florida vacation, where the actress showed off a range of bikinis. The Kelley-Heigl gang got back to California last week, as Josh had to do interviews to support the release of his new album, Georgia Clay. He spoke about the musical atmosphere in his household and Naleigh's evolving tastes, saying, "She loves it when I sing - if I'm playing the piano or guitar, she'll come over and sing with me . . . She's a really smart girl. She'll come over and strum my guitar and even sing in the right key."
