Hey Tina. Big week, huh?
We’ve got “30 Rock” tonight — a rerun, but a recent one with the incredible Michael Sheen as Wesley, your reluctant romantic interest.
Then Friday night we’re meeting up at the movie theatre for the anxiously awaited “Date Night” with Steve Carell. I have laughed hard at every trailer viewing, so I’m pretty stoked (even though I just read a mediocre review — the critics are such ruiners).
On to Saturday night, and Tina, we’ll be together again….’cause you’re hosting “Saturday Night Live.” No doubt you’ll open the show with your uncanny Sarah Palin impression, or we’ll see it very soon thereafter.
When Sunday comes, I’m thinking feature in the New York Times in addition to the magazine covers that I’ve already spied this week. And heck, the way things are going, I’ll probably see you walking down the street later that afternoon. We do both live on the Upper West Side.
But, I have to be honest, Tina — I need some space.
It’s not you; it’s me.
You’re smart and funny and accomplished and, well, everywhere. You are dangerously close to be seriously overexposed.
A little less Tina would make us all appreciate you even more.
Let’s just enjoy the weekend…and after that?
We’re on a break.
Trophy love
There’s something in the air of late, and it sure ain’t love.
I’ve been chronicling the sad events on my Facebook page: Couple after celebrity couple calling it quits, even though the holidays are just around the corner.
Is there some kind of tax incentive to ending things before year’s end? A public relations advantage to starting the new year with a clean relationship slate? More product endorsements available to single stars?
I for one am shocked and truly saddened.
While I never thought Scarlett was funny enough for Ryan — sorry, I’m not big enough of a person to keep that opinion to myself — I wanted the relationship to succeed because Ryan did. (I love him that much.) I hate that it failed.
But then they broke up for good. Now she’s dating Michael Sheen, who is a brilliant actor (and a better Tony Blair than Tony Blair himself).
But she’ll always be Ryan’s gal in my mind.
But seriously, folks, these celebs need to start putting in the work. If Natalie Portman is willing to study ballet for a year to earn an Oscar for “Black Swan,” and Christian Bale will starve himself down to skin and bones for “The Machinist” and “The Fighter”…
…can’t actors put just a little more effort into their own love lives?
Maybe if we come up with an award…
