Dear Poll: Which Character Was Your Favorite?

DearSugar — Wed, 10 Sep 2008 15:00:00 -0700

All the 90210 talk has really got me reminiscing about the original series and how much I loved it, especially those Beverly Hills guys! Although I was an incredibly loyal viewer, I wasn't so true to my crushes throughout the years. I started out liking Dylan the best, only to crush later on his best friend Brandon, but at the end of their 10-year run, I was committed to David Silver — who knew he'd turn out so hot? I have a feeling I'm not the only one that had a thing for these characters, so tell me, who was your all-time favorite 90210 stud?Source

It wasn't until I read this bizarre bit about Pharrell Williams wanting to remove all of his tattoos that I realized how much I've been missing him as eye candy. Lately, he's been mostly absent from photo ops, aside from a recent appearance on TRL. But with his musical talents, production prowess, and snappy fashion sense, Pharrell is definitely doable as far as I'm concerned! What's your take on this multitasker?Source

Dear Poll: Would You Let Your Boyfriend's Personal Issues Affect Your Relationship?

DearSugar — Tue, 01 Jul 2008 11:00:00 -0700

In the wake of the Anne Hathaway/Raffaello Follieri breakup, more shady behavior continues to be revealed yet Anne soldiers on to promote Get Smart with a smile on her face. As we all know by now, reports state that Anne dumped Raffaello because she didn't want his legal troubles to affect her reputation or damage her career, but after four years together that must not have been an easy decision. We all come with baggage, but when you're in a relationship that's not bound by the union of marriage, breaking up is much easier to do if that load becomes too heavy to handle. Since it's impossible to just turn off your feelings for the person you love, tell me, would you ever let your boyfriend's personal or professional issues affect your otherwise functional relationship?Source

Dear Poll: Would You Let Your Boyfriend's Personal Issues Affect Your Relationship?

Yes. If he was in trouble like Follieri, our life would be changed forever and I don't know if it would be worth it.

No. True love is unconditional. I would never leave the man I love in the lurch.

It completley depends on what the situation was.

Dear Poll: Would You Want to Be Famous?

DearSugar — Fri, 23 May 2008 12:00:00 -0700

With reality television stars and celebutantes making up the new-school Hollywood elite, sometimes it seems like just about anyone can relish in some fame — at least for a little while. In fact, Living Lohan with Dina and her youngest daughter Ali, which follows Ali's attempts to achieve stardom, premieres this weekend on E!. I can’t say the glamorous Hollywood lifestyle doesn’t sound intriguing, but I don’t think I’d want to follow in Lindsay Lohan's footsteps, big sister or not. Like so many young starlets, she's more known for her debauchery than her talent these days, and we all know that the scrutiny can take its toll. Sure, making millions for doing just about nothing sounds great, but with all these hot messes traipsing around, would you even want to be famous if you could? Source

Dear Poll: Would You Want to Be Famous?

No way — It's not worth the toll it takes.

Dear Poll: Does Giving Back Make Him Hotter?

DearSugar — Tue, 22 Apr 2008 10:00:00 -0700

Being a celebrity means having a voice, and when stars use their voices to better our world, I can't help but be turned on. It's no secret that celebs have endless perks, but when they use their free time, spare money, and influential power of speech in a meaningful way, my envy goes by the wayside. OK, now that my PC statement is complete, I have to be honest: Watching good-looking Hollywood men be charitable is just hot! Are you with me? Tell me ladies, does seeing someone give back make him even hotter in your book like it does mine?

Dear Poll: Does Giving Back Make Him Hotter?

Yes, there's nothing sexier than helping the less fortunate.

No, it doesn't make them sexier per se, but it's still really nice to see.

Celebrities should give back whether or not it's sexy. When you have that kind of influence, it's the right thing to do.

Dear Poll: Would You Let the Pressure Get to You?

DearSugar — Thu, 17 Apr 2008 08:00:00 -0700

So Vanessa Minnillo and Nick Lachey haven't been together all that long, but the swirling pressure for them to get engaged is even felt by total strangers. I don't know if it's the media's perception that she's ready for him to get down on bended knee or if she's actually come right out and said it, but engagement pressure of any kind sure can put a serious strain on even the best relationship. No matter if the pestering is done in a supportive way — "You look so happy, it must be happening soon!" — it can still send anyone into a tailspin. I've never had to deal with relationship bullying, but have you? I guess what I want to know is, would you or have you ever let the pressure get to you?Bauer-Griffin

Dear Poll: Would You Let the Pressure Get to You?

It's really hard not to. When people are constantly reminding you that you're not engaged, it really makes you think.

No, you just have to zone it out or else it can get the best of you and your relationship.

The constant badgering got the best of my relationship once. We weren't ready and the pressure broke us up.

Dear Poll: Do You Feel Better With Age?

DearSugar — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 09:00:00 -0700

Whenever I see talk shows or read interviews with celebrities, I constantly hear them say that they feel better with age. Oprah has said on numerous occasions that she really came into herself at age 50, and the younger generation strongly suggests that 30 is when you have the confidence to be the real you. Sure, the older I get the more secure I feel, but who likes getting old?Demi Moore proves that age shouldn't get you down, as do Madonna, Michelle Pfeiffer, and we can't leave out George Clooney!

Did any of your catch Britney Spears on How I Met Your Mother last night? If not, the few minutes of screen time that she got was actually pretty funny, and she looked surprisingly good, too! I've always been a big fan of Brit's, and even though she's hit rock bottom on more than one occasion, I keep cheering her on because I'm a firm believer that everyone deserves a second chance. Sure, she's had more than her fair share of chances to redeem herself, but sometimes it takes the third or fourth go around before things just click. Since no one is perfect, what I want to know is, do you believe in second chances? Photo courtesy of CBS

Dear Poll: Do You Believe in Second Chances?

Yes, I'm very forgiving, almost to a fault, so I usually give people an opportunity to redeem themselves.

No, I don't think people can change so what's the point of giving a second chance?

I guess it depends on what they did in order to need a second chance.

Dear Poll: Do Celebs Have a Right to Fight Back?

We hear about celebrities yelling at the paparazzi all the time. Just this week it was Seal giving them a piece of his mind, but Cameron Diaz has done it and Justin Timberlake has too. Even Hugh Grant has made his opinion known, loud and clear. Whenever I see the shutterbugs swarming celebrities, I always feel badly for them. Sure, paparazzi comes with the territory, but when is enough, enough? Famous faces can't even grab a bite to eat without flashes practically blinding them!I may sound like a softy, but I feel like everyone has a right to privacy. What's your take on this touchy subject? It seems that most people have no sympathy for celebrities, so do you think they have a right to fight back at the media, call them names, even let matters get physical every once in a while to protect themselves?

Dear Poll: Do Celebs Have a Right to Fight Back?

Yes — The paparazzi completely step over the line.

Dear Poll: Would You Compete For a Man?

DearSugar — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 07:00:00 -0700

Last night, the twelfth edition of The Bachelor debuted, and I have to admit that I'm hooked, yet again! Since most of the relationships don't end up working out at the end, ABC is constantly trying to make the main character fresh and new. This season, Matt Grant, the first international bachelor, is giving American men a run for their money. He's handsome, he has a sexy British accent, and he has 25 bachelorettes doing whatever it takes to get the man of their dreams, or who they think could be him! This show is one of my favorite guilty pleasures — I just love watching the extent that these women go to in order to find "the one." Since it's worked before, what I want to know is, would you ever compete on national television in the name of love? Photos copyright 2007 ABC, Inc

Dear Poll: Would You Compete For a Man?

Yes — Who knows, he could really be the man of my dreams. I'm all for taking chances.

No — Those girls just look way to desperate and I would never want to be compared to them.

It depends on who the bachelor was and where I was in my own life, but I wouldn't rule it out.

It's been rumored that Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds are moving in together, but the news of their co-habitation wasn't met with support from Scarlett's mom. Despite her disapproval, it looks like Scarlett and Ryan are moving forward with their plans regardless! Sure, we all crave our parents acceptance and approval, but sometimes we have to be adults and make our own life decisions, especially when it comes to matters of the heart. There's been lots of talk over the past few months about conflicts between parents and partners but let me ask you this, how much does your parents' opinion matter when it comes to matters of your heart?

Dear Poll: Does Your Parents' Opinion Matter?

Their approval means the world to me. If they don't like who I'm with or what I do, I feel like I'm a disappointment.

It's official, Katherine Heigl is a smoker. But from all the photographs I've seen of her puffing away, I've never seen her husband partaking, which leads me to believe that he's a nonsmoker. I don't smoke either and because of that, I don't think I could date someone who does. Having to smell stale cigarette smoke on his clothes and put up with smoker's breath would be quite nauseating to me. Of course, there are exceptions to the rule, but ladies, what I want to know is, would you date a smoker if you weren't one yourself? Flynet

Dear Poll: Would You Date a Smoker?

Yes — Cigarette smoke doesn't bother me in the slightest.

DearSugar — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 10:00:00 -0800

One would think being a celebrity with the constant, watchful eye of an evasive public would be more than enough, but when you voluntarily expose yourself to more scrutiny, I have to question one's motives. Lindsay Lohan's drama has been splashed all over every tabloid for months now, but it seems like she hasn't had enough. First she posed naked for New York magazine and now images of her tattoos will be on display come Thursday. I know that celebrities choose their career because they love the attention, but what ever happened to protecting your privacy?

Ashlee Simpson has been sporting a diamond ring on her left ring finger, which has recently caused quite a stir. Theydebunked engagement rumors yesterday, setting the record straight and clearing up the confusion — the ring is actually a promise ring, not an engagement ring. Ashlee was quoted saying, "it just means that he (Pete Wentz) hasn't asked my dad yet."This got me thinking — what's the point of buying an expensive ring to wear on the same ring finger as an engagement ring if you're not going to just pop the question? I mean isn't a promise ring just delaying the inevitable? Clearly I don't see the point in taking this step but what about you? What's your take on promise rings? Source

Dear Poll: What's Your Take on Promise Rings?

I like the idea. It's committing without setting anything in stone.

I think it's a good idea if you're young and just not ready for marriage anytime in the near future.

I think it's a pointless step. If you want to be together forever, just get engaged all ready!

There's always been some sort of weird fascination with celebrity babies. Since we most likely won't be receiving their baby announcement, the paparazzi will do almost anything to fulfill the public's curiosity surrounding what they look like. But could you imagine having to deal with all that hoopla right after giving birth? In my opinion, it makes much more sense to grant photo ops on your own terms — Remember Sarah Jessica Parker and Mathew Broderick being calmly photographed on the steps of their New York hospital after she gave birth to James Wilke? Ladies, if you were a pregnant celebrity or a new mom like Halle, Jennifer, Christina, or Nicole, would you put your baby on display and let the paparazzi get their million-dollar shot ala SJP or would you try to keep your baby away from the spotlight for as long as possible?

DearSugar — Wed, 30 Jan 2008 10:00:00 -0800

We've all heard the term sugar daddy, well now it's time to meet the sugar mama. After Janice Spindel, a famed matchmaker based in New York, screened 20 "sugar mamas" and 20 "boy toys", a New York-based entrepreneur brought them all together for a night of speed dating. In order to participate, the sugar mamas had to be 35 years or older and earning an income of $500,000 a year or have $4 million in liquid assets. According to Abelson, 27, who is the brains behind this concept, I think for men it is an incredible fantasy (to be with an older woman). . . . Older women are more experienced and they know what they want.

Sure, the older woman/younger man scenario works in Hollywood, but do you think it's a sustainable kind of relationship in your world? Some say age is just a number but what I want to know is, would you feel comfortable being someone's sugar mama?Source

Dear Poll: Would You Want to Be a Sugar Mama?

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt aren't the only celebrity couple trying to avoid pregnancy rumors. Christina Aguilera dodged the question for months as did Jennifer Lopez. Deciding when and who to tell is different for everyone — some can't keep it in and others won't even tell their parents until they're out of the danger zone. Since Hollywood starlets are constantly in the public eye, everyone wants to know — are they or aren't they? But in the real world, it's a much easier secret to keep. Since I've never been pregnant, I can only guess that I'd want to shout it from the rooftops, but how about you? Will you wait until your second trimester to tell your friends and family? Source

Yes. It doesn't matter if you're famous or not, a 30-year-old just shouldn't be with an 18-year-old.

While I know that's old news, it got me thinking about marriages and divorces.

She was quoted in the January issue of Vanity Fair saying, "They really hurt somebody, and they didn't seem to be taking a lot of responsibility for it. I have a really hard time with that kind of thing. I'm maybe a little too black-and-white about it."I'm with Katherine, I'm black and white about cheating too, but I can't deny the fact that I was still rooting for Izzie and George to hook up. She's right, they took no responsibility for their actions, and I know it's wrong to side with the other woman, but am I alone in wanting George to leave Callie for Izzie? Shouldn't there be an exception for those who just make sense together? Source
