LA Sports Icon Magic Johnson Buys The Dodgers

Lakers Hall-of-Famer Magic Johnson has struck headlines again!  Earvin “Magic” Johnson and a group of fellow investors will ante up $2.15 billion for the L.A. team. The Dodgers drew less than 3 million fans for the first time since 1995.  Hopefully the new ownership will bring back interest in some good old-fashioned American baseball!

Magic is obviously hugely popular within the Los Angeles community.  In an interview with USA Today, Dodgers outfielder Tony Gwynn Jr. says of Johnson, ”He better get his hand ready because there’ll be 25 guys in here holding basketballs ready to be signed.  I’m probably more pumped than anybody in this room because I’m the biggest Laker fan in the world.”

Do you think Magic will help this bankrupt team turn around?

The Carrie Diaries: Sex And The City Prequel

The Carrie Diaries‘ is the upcoming prequel to the famed Sex and the City story by author Candace Bushnell.  AnnaSophia Robb will play a young Carrie Bradshaw during her high school years in the CW series.  The show will feature the budding fashionista’s early relationships, her first love, and how she began her writing career.

AnnaSophia Robb is most notable for her roles in Soul Surfer and Bridge to Terabithia.  It looks like Carrie’s “high school years” wardrobe was pulled directly from the modern-day Carrie Bradshaw closet in this photo.  As huge fans of the original Sex And The City show, we know that AnnaSophia has some big (to-die-for) shoes to fill!

What do you think of AnnaSophia Robb as ‘Carrie’?

Be Good To Yourself: Gio’s Healthy Living Tips

Looking for ways besides the traditional diet and exercise to stay healthy? Read what Gio alternative methods swears by!

Who: Gio, Junior Publicist: Fashion Department

Live Long and Prosper With These Tips:

1. Every morning I drink an Emergen-C in conjunction with my other supplements. I love the variety of flavors, so I never get bored.

2. I swear by Jarrow Probiotics. I used to have such a weak immune system and was constantly sick, but ever since I started taking probiotics twice a day I feel amazing. These are seriously life changing!

3. Squats and lunges are the best exercises. I love that no equipment is required so you can do them anywhere and anytime. Plus, there are so many ways to intensify and target different parts of your lower body, so it never gets repetitive and you can ALWAYS feel the burn.

4. Acupuncture is one of the best ways to relax and detox. Not only can it work wonders on injuries and health issues, but after a treatment I feel completely at peace and de-stressed.
