Lady Gaga has reupped her holiday partnership with N.Y.C. department store Barney's, albeit in a totally different way. While the singer launched her very own Christmas workshop complete with Gaga-themed trinkets, chocolates, giftables and more last holiday season, this year, she has been made over as an animated Disney princess for 'Electric Holiday,' a short film for the luxe retailer's Christmas campaign.
Being that Christmas is literally right around the corner, our televisions have been flooded by Christmas commercials... and we're not hating it.
November 12, 2012 A couple of weeks ago we were at a friends house and I ended up watching "The Polar Express" starring Tom Hanks with one of their small children, it's a movie I've seen many times and this time I got sucked into watching the entire thing that evening and you know, it never gets old! If you've never seen it, it is a must see movie and another great way to experience the movie is on the Texas State Railroads' Polar Express Train Ride.
November 12, 2012 This should be a verifiable disease; "Black Friday Anxiety." I'm pretty sure I have it. How about you?
Many of the Black Friday ads are out and shoppers are planning their attack. As we learned last week, Black Friday is now Black Thursday with several stores opening at 8 or 9pm on Thanksgiving night. Did you know that sale-shoppers and bargain-hunters will actually end up spending more money in the long run than those who skip the sales and pay full price? There's a tidbit to add to the stress.
It’s the week before Thanksgiving and a lot of folks I know are going through their Christmas movie stash.
November 12, 2012 Something to keep in mind as the holidays approach: People are selling things everywhere! They're even trying to sell iPads at gas stations. But it doesn't always turn out to be legit.
A Texas woman was scammed out of $200 after a man approached her at a gas station and asked if she wanted to buy "an iPad worth $800 for $200." Apple hasn't even shipped the highest-priced iPads yet, with retail price ranging from $629 to $829, but if you're at a gas station pumping gas, you probably have other things on your mind besides retail releases and ship dates. Did the scammer get caught?
Nickelodeon wants to wish kids and teens a 'Merry Nickmas' this holiday season with the release of a new compilation featuring music from the network's biggest music stars, including Big Time Rush, Rachel Crow and Victoria Justice.
It is the time of year to treat yourself to the delicacies of the season. World-famous Greenberg Turkeys, made right here in Tyler, are local and delicious. With Thanksgiving and Christmas at the door step, have you ordered your smoked turkey yet?
It's the most wonderful time of the year! Almost.
The holidays are known for their abundance of food. We prepare ourselves all year for this time of the year. It is as if the amount of food for those fortunate enough never ceases to stop. But, after this time the food we stuffed ourselves with will not show up on our plate until the following year. What foods are you looking forward to this year?
It may feel weird to listen to holiday music when a lot of the country is bracing for a hurricane, but it is almost November -- and Cee Lo Green and fellow 'The Voice' coach Christina Aguilera will put even the biggest Grinch in a holiday mood with their duet, 'Baby It's Cold Outside.'
As if Cee Lo Green didn't have enough goodies on his buffet holiday plate with 'The Voice,' the Goodie Mob reunion, his next solo record and the postponed Loberace residency in Vegas, he somehow managed to squeak out a holiday album, ‘Cee Lo’s Magic Moment,’ which will be released Oct. 30.
