Dizzy Feet Foundation

Tonight on So You Think You Can Dance, Nigel Lythgoe announced the formation of a new foundation focusing on scholarships in dance. The Dizzy Feet Foundation was founded in 2009 by Nigel Lythgoe, director Adam Shankman, “Dancing with the Stars” judge Carrie Ann Inaba and actress Katie Holmes to support, improve, and increase access to dance education in the United States. Guided by a board consisting of some of the most illustrious names in the American dance community, the foundation’s mission is threefold: (1) to provide scholarships and grants to talented dancers, choreographers and teachers working at or through accredited dance studios; (2) to establish national standards for dance education and an accreditation program for dance; and (3) to develop, provide and support dance education programs for disadvantaged children by working through and with community organizations.

Tune in on July 23rd to the 100th episode of So You Think You Can Dance for a special appearance by Katie Holmes who will be dancing a Broadway routine by Tyce Diorio.

The Veronicas - Take Me On The Floor

Farrah Fawcett dies at age 62 (1947 to 2009)

1969: Makes her film debut in Italian feature Un home qui me plait (Love is a Funny Thing).

1970: Films her first major role as Mary Ann Pringle in Myra Breckenridge with Mae West, Raquel Welch and John Huston. There is much feuding reported on set, and the film, well behind schedule and considerably over budget, is a flop.

Fawcett-Majors poses for the now-famous red bathing suit poster that went on to sell more than 8 million copies and make her a superstar sex symbol. The layered hairstyle she wears in both the show and in the poster, known as "The Farrah," starts a trend for young girls (and sometimes boys).

1977: Leaves Charlie's Angels after one season, breaking her contract with the show. Among the reported reasons were dissatisfaction with both her salary and the material, plus frustrations with balancing the show's duties with her struggling marriage.

Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood

I'm sad to admit that my newest addition is Tori & Dean: Home Sweet Hollywood. It airs on the Oxygen network on Tuesdays (10E/9C). Entertainment Weekly calls it a "ridiculous reality treat" and I couldn't agree more. I happened upon it and now I'm hooked!
