Adios, Atlanta. Hello, Orange County. Part 2

"WOO WOO!" Ahhh. Vicki getting drunk and woo-ing throughout Orange Country is music to my ears.

The fourth season of "The Real Housewives of Orange County," which premiered immediately after the "Atlanta" reunion, is as entertaining as ever. Along with Vicki, Lauri, Jeana, and Tamra are back...but there's a new housewife in town: 30-year-old Gretchen Rossi. So how can this young blonde woman afford to live in the gated Coto de Caza? Well, her 53-year-old fiance, Jeff, of course!

But before you start mocking the relationship as I did, the season premier informed us that Jess has acute leukemia. That doesn't mean we won't have plenty to say about Gretchen, or any of the other housewives this season. The promo for the fourth season left me anticipating lots of tears, fights, drinks, and above all, money!

Adios, Atlanta. Hello, Orange County. Part 1

Tuesday night on Bravo, we finally said 'good-bye' to "The Real Housewives of Atlanta" on their reunion special and 'welcome back' to another season of "The Real Housewives of Orange County." A double blessing.

The reunion special was filled with Kim explaining the reason she wears a wig is because she had cancer; she learned this diagnosis from her friend, a doctor, telling her he was 90% sure she had cancer. But as it turns out, it wasn't cancer. HUH? So, Kim didn't have cancer? My money is on "no."

Then, both NeNe and Lisa got into screaming matches with Kim (the kind of drama that won't be missed).

And did anyone else hear Kim's little, "you'll find out next season" comment? I hope that was just wishful thinking on her part.

So Excited for "Four Chistmases"

Right around Thanksgiving, we have that one holiday movie everyone knows about--the one that's so heavily promoted, you can quote the movie before it even premiers. Well, this year that movie is Four Christmases starring Vince Vaughn and Reese Witherspoon. But the movie centers itself around a Meet the Parents type of premise, with the couple visiting each of their parents. Witherspoon getting thrown-up on, Vaughn being wrestled to the ground, and despite all of these cliches, I cannot wait to see it.

The movie comes out in theatres today, and could give the football non-addicts something to do on Thanksgiving (aside from eating until you drop to the floor).

Discrimination becoming a California trend?

With the recent ban on gay marriage, other minority groups in California are fearing that discrimination may become more prevalent throughout the state.

The "Jonas" trend: "Breaking" the trend

While tweens across America are continuing to gush over The Jonas Brothers, these guy's exes are setting a whole new trend.

Taylor Swift joins Miley Cyrus in the ex-Jonas-girlfriend boat. So how do you bank on getting dumped? Write a song, get it playing all over the radio, and stand strong against The Jonas Brothers.

Unfortunately the Tyra trend isn't ending...

First it was the million and one seasons of "America's Next Top Model" and then it was her own talk show.

But unfortunately, Tyra Banks is proving that she cannot be stopped, no matter how much we beg.

Her newly produced reality show, "True Beauty" is coming soon to ABC. It's inspirational, really. The series centers around beautiful models and actors who don't know they are actually being judged on their inner beauty.

Keep an eye out for your gift guides...

With Christmas rapidly approaching, gift guides are popping up like crazy (and are keeping our budgets in mind). Elle's December issue features an extensive guide to gifts at every price range, and InStyle has a great online gallery with tons of gifts under $100.

Ashlee Simpson carries on the baby name trend

In true celebrity fashion, Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz named their first son something truly original: Bronx Mowgli Wentz.

Yes. Mowgli. Like "The Jungle Book." But who can deny the meaning? Just look at that resemblance.

It's just one more for the books right after other celebrity baby names: Pilot Inspektor, Audio Science, Apple.

Thanksgiving Planning

I have my short spurts of trying to be a 20-year-old version of Martha Stewart, and it should be no surprise that Thanksgiving brings along one of these trends. This year, however, I added fuel to the fire: Instead of going back home to Dallas for Thanksgiving, my family will be traveling down to Austin to celebrate Turkey Day in my small little apartment.

I have already hit up Marshall's for their sale on Thanksgiving decorations, (Don't worry, Mom. They really were on sale.) and Target had the perfect napkins and plates, decorated with lots of leaves and lots of burnt orange (Again: on sale). But if I was going to make Martha's maple leaf cookies for family and friends, I had to make a trip to Hobby Lobby.

That leaves the menu: two types of dressing, two types of green beans, corn, mashed potatoes, cranberry relish, rolls, a cake and maple leaf cookies (because Martha told me to), and a ham (straight from Central Market).

So in the next fews days, I have to finish a ton of pre-Thanksgiving break homework, make my apartment shine, shop for groceries, start baking, and, on top of everything, entertain a handful of house guests. Whew; is it Christmas yet?

Well that didn't take long.

OK. Hours after the news broke that Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt eloped in Mexico this past weekend, Perez Hilton is publishing alleged vows the two exchanged. UsWeekly is set to publish the exclusive photos in their latest issue (out Wednesday), and the entire "Hills" family is speaking out.

Audrina and Stephanie were among those congratulating the couple, after being shocked to find out the two had wed. I'm sure Lauren Conrad's two cents will be surfacing very soon. But who does that leave out? Heidi's mom. According to PerezHilton.com, she was 'caught off guard' and very unhappy about the news. Well, isn't that the shock of the century? Move over Barack.

Why wouldn't Heidi's mother be happy for her daughter getting married? Well, take a look at where I think Spencer went wrong...Remember this delightful moment from "The Hills"?
