There's just nothing like curling up under a blanket and realizing you have the freedom to not only move your arms, but hold a baby and read a book! Enter, the Snuggie.
The jewel-colored Snuggie generated a huge cult-like following after its infomercial went viral in 2008. Hundreds of parodies of the odd commercial hit the web, inspiring Allstar Products Group, the makers of the Snuggie, to allow people to submit their own Snuggie videos for a chance to win $5,000 for first place and $2,500 for second and third place.
In addition to the monetary prize, winners will be given a few Snuggies, as well as the chance to appear in future commercials. Killer deal, right? There is a catch! Your video has to be under three minutes and submitted before midnight on September 1st. Time to go get your Snuggie on folks!
In the meantime, enjoy this new Snuggie advertisement, the "Snuggie Macarena." You're welcome.
Producer and judge Nigel Lythgoe of "So You Think You Can Dance" chatted with Ryan Friday to explain his "Freudian slip" on the show, referring to his possible re-emergence as Producer on "American Idol."
If you weren't tuning in to "So You Think You Can Dance" on Wednesday, judge Nigel had a major slip of the tongue. While commenting on a dancer's performance he said, "This is the first time we've seen it on 'American Idol' this season." Oops, wrong show! This has sparked rumors that Lythgoe might be re-claiming his title as Producer on "American Idol." So is he, or isn't he?
"I've figured out I've got so much to talk about, you know, with [Saturday's] "National Dance Day," and the Dizzy Feet Gala coming up on the 21st of August at the Shrine and the tour of "So You Think You Can Dance" that if I confirmed that I was doing ['American Idol'], people would just want to talk to me about Idol, if I denied I was doing it people wouldn't want to talk to me at all," he said coyly. Maybe he'll tell us at Saturday's "National Dance Day?"
Lythgoe began "National Dance Day" as a way to combat obesity in America. "68% of the population over twenty is either overweight or obese," he said. After thinking about all the monotonous exercise he thought, "How much more fun is it to dance? So I suggested we have a 'National Dance Day' here in America, and I wrote to the First Lady Michelle Obama." Way to get the job done!
In addition to making National days possible, Lythgoe is going on tour with the "So You Think You Can Dance Crew" beginning September nineteenth. To grab your tickets, click here.
Demi Lovato called in to Ryan's radio show Friday to share her thoughts on touring with the Jonas Brothers, her admiration for Kim Kardashian, and her upcoming promotion "Shop 'TIl You Rock."
The eighteen-year-old actress and singer just recently ended things with singer, Joe Jonas of the Jonas Brothers, and oddly enough the two will be going on tour together starting August 6th. Despite the recent break-up, Lovato says the two "will be fine." She told Ryan that they saw each other at the "Do Something" awards and "It was really cool, it felt like...back to normal before the romance started."
So what happens if Demi meets someone on tour? Will she be able to get to know another guy with Joe around? Absolutely, she says. "I'm sure if I wanted to see someone, I would and I'm sure he would do the same."

Lovato revealed that aside from acting and singing, one her other passions is fashion, which is why she's launching her new promotion, "Shop 'Til You Rock."
Lovato plans to share her passions, traveling around the country "doing meet and greets and signings." Lovato will be bringing the fun, she says "there's a ton of bands and, you know, I'm a teenage girl so I love music and fashion, and [when] you combine the two together, I am there!"
Lovato's fashion inspiration? None other than Kim Kardashian! "She is such a great inspiration when it comes to fashion and things like that because she wears clothes that really fit her body type, and she doesn't try to squeeze into things that are made for supermodels, and it's given me a lot of confidence just to be able to watch that," she gushed.

Want to deck yourself out in material girl garb? You're in the right place! Madonna and her daughter Lola have created their "Material Girl" collection for Macys, which hits stores August third. The creative process of the advertising campaign shoot was documented by cameras, which caught all the behind-the-scenes material.
Madonna says, "A material girl is a girl who is interested in fashion and interested in music and interested in fun and has a sense of humor."
"Gossip Girl's" Taylor Momsen is the face of the teen clothing line and tells cameras that "there's a mother-daughter relationship which you can definitely see when [she and her daughter] are working together."
The line is based on Lola's style, which Madonna says she's a major fan of. "I really like the way Lola dresses and I really think this line is absolutely an extension of her taste."
