Trey Parker and Matt Stone on Creating a Hit Musical

Back in the mid 1990’s when South Park first came on the air it was considered to be irrelevant, shocking and something that people gleefully watched on Comedy Central but never would admit to their friends that they loved it. Fast forward to 2012 and South Park has become an American institution on television just like The Simpsons and the creators of South Park: Trey Parker and Matt Stone have focused their creative powers into a new arena and created The Book of Mormon musical.

What’s It All About?

The musical is about a couple of optimistic Mormon missionaries who are sent to a village in Uganda to share the book of Mormon with that land. Once there they encounter a wide variety of problems that lets them know that they are no longer in Utah and longer. Trey Parker and Matt Stone both agree that it wasn’t their goal to bash the Mormon Church with their musical; instead what they wanted to do was tell a very funny story where Mormons are involved.

Official Church Response

Before the show launched critics worried that the official church response would be one of protest and anger but once representatives from the Mormon Church saw the musical they actually liked the musical and as Trey Parker said “they were cool with it”.

Over the Top Celebrity Valentine’s Celebrations

If you're part of a famous Hollywood power couple, you should expect something truly exotic for Valentine's Day. Celebrities seem to be all about unique Valentine's Day gifts, like 10,000 doves or a midnight trip to Paris.

You Might Have to be More Practical

Valentine's Day gift ideas when you're not a celebrity have to be a little bit more realistic. Even if you have a lot of money, you may not have the connections to get people in authority to look the other way while you do something a little crazy because you're famous.

Not All Celebrities Give Lavish Gifts

Keep in mind that not every celebrity is over the top, though. Some are still practical and realistic, even though money is really no object. Keep in mind that Valentine's Day really shouldn't be about how expensive of a gift you can purchase for your loved one. Instead, it should be about the thought behind the gift.

When you avoid over the top celebrations and buy something that your significant other would really enjoy, you'll have the most chance of getting a great result from your Valentine's Day gift giving. That's what you should consider most important in Valentine's Day.

Top Celebrity MOG Outfits

Its wedding season and many mothers of the groom around the world are choosing dresses for their son’s upcoming weddings. Thanks to the internet, any mother of the groom (MOG) can research and choose a great dress based on celebrity style and taste.

Go Back To the Royal Wedding

Future mothers of the groom can take a cue from the Duchess of Cornwall who chose a perfect dress and hat that complimented the dress that Carole Middleton wore for the recent Royal Wedding. Like Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, every woman should choose a dress that first compliments her hair and skin tone then compliments the dress that the mother of the bride will be wearing.

Always Shop Early

Mothers of the groom shouldn’t wait for the last second to choose a mother of the groom dress. If the wedding is six months away, they should start shopping now, at least mentally, that way they will know exactly what style of dress that they want when they are ready to purchase it.

Avoid Accessories

Dresses that have accessories like sparklers or beads look nice but they only add to the price tag of the dress. To save money and find a dress that they will be able to wear in the future every mother of the groom should choose a dress that’s beautiful and basic at the same time.

Indulgent Celebrity Vanity Table

What would go into an indulgent celebrity vanity table? I’m thinking a direct line to room service.

Tips From The Celebrities

Here are a few things that you need, according to well known celebrities, at your vanity table: in a nice frame, a picture of your favorite, old school movie star or your favorite picture of yourself all done up; a tray of fragrances; decorative holders for your makeup brushes; an ottoman or chair; divided storage drawers for hair and makeup accessories; soft white lighting through lamps or wall fixtures; a large mirror (or medium sized); and a simple desk or table.

These Are Absolutes

Be sure that the chair or stool upon which you sit is comfortable and cushiony, and will not promote a backache. Lighting is of the utmost importance. During the day if you can be by a window, natural light is preferable. For night time lighting, installing a dimmer switch on your lighting system is a great touch. A hardwood floor with a fun, washable or replaceable throw rug, in a secluded corner of a room is the best place to set up your own private makeup vanity. Above all else… Never build your vanity in a bathroom. Bacterial growth in and on make-up products is encouraged by the humid atmosphere.
