Mandi's Thoughts on "American Idol" for 3/25/15!

Tonight is eighties night on "American Idol" and I am a huge eighties fan. To top it off, Boy George from Culture Club is the mentor so I am in heaven right now. But let me tell you how I am feeling about the singers! I apologize in advance for being brutally honest! DANIEL SEAVEY: "You Make My Dreams" by Hall and Oates. He sounds like Peter Brady on the episode of "The Brady Bunch" where his voice started to change and they had to sing. He is too young and just not ready for this. I think by 20 he will be okay but at 15, he does not know what the eighties were about and how lucky he is to be even singing a Hall and Oates song LIVE on TV! Why is he still here?  QUENTIN ALEXANDER: "In The Air Tonight" by Phil Collins. He is amazing, he is Jimi Hendrix meets Lenny Kravitz and I pray he is in the top two!!  JOEY COOK: "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" by Cyndi Lauper. This is perfect for her because they are both quirky but somethi...

Hilary Duff Goes Green!

When celebrities go green, it often means that they are attempting to conserve energy and the planet. That is not the case when it comes to Hilary Duff. On the heels of filing for divorce from husband Mike Comrie, the actress/singer decided to change up her blonde locks and what you will see may shock you. Yes, this is Hilary sporting a mermaid color. I think that it is just the wrong shade for her as I would have loved to see her with purple or pink or a mix of both. This color is washed out and she is such a pretty girl. I feel like this is the color my hair turns when I use anything labeled "neutral" or "ash." I doubt it will last that long but props for trying something new!!

Kim Kardashian is Turning White!

Kim Kardashian West recently debuted a super cute choppy cut, most likely inspired by husband Kanye West. He seems to dictate everything in her life so when she stepped out with platinum locks this past week, everyone was taken aback. Then, she went a step further and went basically white. My concern is for her hair. She has gone from super dark to ombre back to dark back to ombre back to black, changing extensions in between. And now she has double processed her hair to blonde and I'm wondering when we will start seeing chunks fall out. Poor Kim...she has no mind of her own and now the bleach really added to that!

"Teen Mom 2" Work Drama!

Listen up "Teen Mom 2" cast: always make sure that what you are doing when it comes to your job is either legal or up to code! This past season, we saw dedicated student Chelsea Houska almost get denied her esthetician (sp) license for supposedly helping a friend with an event on the side. She did end up getting it and went on to work at a plush spa. Now, Leah Messer Calvert is following in Chelsea's footsteps but this time, there may be NO license in her future...EVER. Leah and her friends have been reportedly operating a salon-like business without any certifications or licenses. Leah is apparently in her first year of cosmetology school but that in no way allows her to run any type of styling company. There are provisions to the rules that she and friends ignored so now they are being investigated and I cannot wait to hear the outcome. Wait...she worked for Mary Kay so she is more than qualified! Duh!

Sean Penn to Be A Father Again!

Sean Penn is getting ready to be a daddy again but this time, the child is already here. Penn, 54 has filed a court petition to legally adopt his new fiancee Charlize Theron's son Jackson, 3. Theron had adopted Jackson and now, the duo is talking more babies. Penn has already been married twice: Madonna and Robin Wright with whom he had two children with. His daughter Dylan is 23 and son Hopper is 21. Penn and Theron reportedly became engaged in November of 2014. We wish them all the best as they enter into this new chapter of life!

Iconic Designer Passes Away at 78!

It is with such a heavy heart that I must announce the passing of designer Vince Camuto. He was 78. Jessica Simpson seemingly broke the news on her Instagram with a photo of herself and Camuto. "Thank you, Vince, for the humble power that has taken me everywhere. You are my mentor, my family, the creator of all my dreams. I will forever walk in your shoes...you made them. #brokenheart"- Jessica Simpson
