Attack of the Vodka Gummy Bears

Posted by Natalia Buia on October 17th, 2011

If you’ve got a bad case of the Mondays and want a little pep to your morning, nibble on some vodka gummy bears! Or not.

There’s been reports of high school students using the candy to get drunk according to a California school board. This dangerously delicious trend is surfacing all over North America.

“It’s kind of scary, because I like gummy bears, and I’m kind of scared because it’s something you have to really keep an eye on,” one student said in an interview.

While it’s understandable most parents and teachers want to prevent underage drinking, it’s cruel to forbid or ban one type of candy for the whole school.

Okay, we all know teens today love to drink and can do mean keg stands. But not every student has the intention of getting drunk before math class on these vodka bears. I’m sure Katy Perry’s gummy bear ring, seen above, is completely sober! Lay off the paranoia, folks, we’ve got bigger issues to deal with (you know, like learning to read and write!).

Britney Spears Bans Junk Food and Alcohol on Tour

Posted by Christian Allaire on April 24th, 2011

Britney Spears is taking the healthy route for her upcoming tour, reports The Sun.

The pop singer has reportedly given caterers strict instructions not to make any junk food because she’s not allowed it. That means no hot dogs, pizza and cookie dough ice cream, which have all been blacklisted. No beer or any alcohol either.

Spears has also requested that Micheal Jackson songs be played constantly in her dressing rooms. She has stockpiled his tour DVDs and enlisted the help of his dance team to recreate his routines.

A mini gym is also being transported to each show, as well as humidifiers, which Britney heard Beyonce uses to protect her voice.

This list of demands doesn’t seem too outrageous. Healthy living, upbeat music, gyms – all seem like good things. But why does someone who lip-synchs need humidifiers for their voice? Does this mean Spears will actually be singing this time around?

Spears is currently preparing for her summer tour with Nicki Minaj, and tickets begin to go on sale April 30.

Posted by andPOP Staff on October 8th, 2010

Nobody said rehab was going to be easy for Lindsay Lohan. PopEater reports one of the rules for her rehab stay at The Betty Ford Center includes a ban on Twitter.

According to a source Lindsay is “only allowed to use her phone for two hours a day, and only to keep in touch with family and close friends,” The New York Post reports.

“Before, she would repeatedly and compulsively e-mail her friends if she was ever in a situation where she felt lonely, and she would vent on Twitter,” the source continued.

Coldplay Ban Its Frontman

Posted by Ilan Mester on February 4th, 2009

Yes it’s true, Coldplay has banned its vocalist Chris Martin from entering the recording studio, but don’t worry, it’s not for long.

“Chris has been banned from the studio for these first two weeks. Now, before the rumour mill cranks its way excitedly into life, this does not indicate any kind of split in the camp. This is an experiment of Brian’s, “ wrote Roadie #42 in a post on the band’s website.

The post says that producer Brian Eno wanted the rest of the band to construct “their own musical underpinning with little idea of what Chris had in mind.”

“The fact that this is such a crazy way of going about things seems to encourage them to go off in deliberately strange and adventurous directions, Roadie #42 continues. “Often, they come in first thing in the morning and listen to Chris’s idea once, before going out into the live room and working up something based purely on how the song “felt” to them on first listen, paying little heed to what chords he chose or how the melody sat”.

Italian Fashion Designers Ban Size Zero Models

Posted by andPOP Staff on December 19th, 2006

The fashion industry is taking a significant step in promoting a healthy body-image.

Italian fashion designers have become the first in the world to prohibit size zero models on the runway.

The move comes a month after a Brazilian model died because of complications due to anorexia.

This new regulation postulates that models with a mass index of 18 or less would not be allowed to take part in any high-fashion runway shows.

Models in future fairs will exemplify “full bodied, healthy and radiant Mediterranean types.”

The campaign launches Friday Dec. 22nd and calls for photographers, make-up artists and model agencies to join against the rail-thin model type.
