Burlesque (2010) Movie Review


I went to the movies with my brother yesterday and watched Burlesque (2010). We have been planning to watch a movie since I came back to my hometown, and since we both love musicals, we decided to watch Burlesque.

I love Christina Aquilera and it's unfortunate that her singing career is almost non-existent. She has great vocals and throughout her performances in the movie, I kept wondering what's going on with her and her life. She needs to pull herself together if she wants to keep what's left of her career. I do think that she looks gorgeous in the movie!

Anyway, I love Cher, Stanley Tucci and Cam Gigandet too. They saved the movie. Cher wowed me with her performance of Welcome to Burlesque. I've always loved Tucci, ever since his performance in The Devil Wears Prada (2006) with and Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway. Cam Gigandet is super hot!

The movie was entertaining, but it's not something I'd like to watch again, not even if it's showing on tv. My brother enjoyed it as well. However, I couldn't help but think that Burlesque is too close of a reminicense to Coyote Ugly (2000), starring Piper Perabo. Burlesque fares better on IMDB than Coyote Ugly, though.

I'll be watching more movies soon. Watch out for more movie reviews!

Fashion Friday #24 - Celebrity Pixie Haircuts

I've always been envious of women who can pull off pixie haircuts, or rather those who are brave enough to have their hair cut that short.

I've compiled pics of my favourite celebrities sporting the cute, super short pixie cut. Contrary to popular belief, pixie cuts are not only for women with a certain face shape. Women with all types of face shapes, be it oval, heart, round, square or angular can definitely pull this look.

However, the length of the cut and how you style it determines how it will look on you. A pixie cut will surely makes your eyes pop, especially on a sleek-back pixie cut. You can use hair products such as styling cream, gel or pomade to keep your pixie cut in place.


 

What I like most about pixie haircuts? It's totally manageable and easy to style!
