A is Golden

Just a quick update to congratulate Emma Stone on her first ever Golden Globe nomination as Best Actress in a Comedy/Musical for Easy A! She's up against some stiff competition, but being recognized and nominated is already a win, and dare I say it, an Easy A.

Cheesy jokes aside, don't forget that Easy A is hitting stores on Blu-Ray and DVD Tuesday! This is a chance to have Amanda under your Christmas tree.

Here's a rundown of the features for the DVD and Blu-ray:




Additional Material:

Commentary with Director Will Gluck and Emma Stone
Emma Stone's Webcam Audition Footage
Gag Reel

Blu-Ray Exclusives:

Extra Credit: Pop-Up Trivia Track (BD-exclusive)
The Making of Easy A (BD-exclusive)
The School of Pop Culture: Movies of the Eighties (BD-exclusive)
Vocabulary of Hilarity (BD-exclusive)

Maybe another present would be for Amanda to announce another project and come out of retirement for real!

Thanks for sticking by as always, for reading, leaving comments, and continuing to support Amanda and this blog. Hopefully 2011 will bring more of Amanda. Entertainment needs her, don't you think?

All the best and happy holidays! See you next year.

There's been some controversey over the way Amanda presented her category, Best Acting Ensemble, with Corbin Bleu at the awards ceremony. Users are saying she seemed rude and unenthusiastic. I think she did nothing wrong, but watch the video yourself and draw your own conclusions.

Hollywood's Hot Good Girl

Amanda Bynes name Hollywood's Hot "Good Girl" from Us Weekly on Wednesday!

Amanda Bynes, in a sophisticated dress by Herve Leger, assured reporters that she really is 21, having celebrated the milestone back in April, but that she's "not a big clubber." The Sydney White star said she was "very honored" to be named as Hollywood's Hot "Good Girl," and is scheming how to get back on it again for next year! "I was very excited and I'll try to continue being 'good,' but I don't know!"

I also added more pictures from the event which you can view here.

In my opinion, it's about time a magazine recognizes Amanda for her hard work. Did you guys realize that none of the major teen and young adult magazines barely or didn't even mention Amanda in Sydney White?
