Being a ~*celebrity*~ + Rain

Earlier today, U.S. Open Official Believer, Melanie Oudin, made an appearance on The Ellen Show. In a pretty sweet interview, we find out the whole world agrees that Melanie is a cradle robber and that meeting Ellen Degeneres > winning tennis matches. But it’s not like we didn’t know that. Still watchable and will most likely lift your mood.

After the interview, they played some tennis. Well, “tennis”, actually. To play doubles, Ellen paired up with Queen Latifah and Melanie with some random dude.

You know, in my time, lesbians used to be better players. Just sayin’. I’m sure Martina and BJK would not approve that.

And this is a BONUS to this post: Have you ever wondered what tennis players do during rain delays? Well, here’s what Team Belgium does. Cuties.

Hola amigos.

So I sort of went into my online bubble when Rafa lost the semis and revealed his abdominal tear. I apologize. I’ll get back to all the e-mails you guys sent to FT v. soon. :) There’ll be nothing terribly exciting going on after Davis, so I’ll be taking suggestions of what to post. Feel free to e-mail me with any stupid (or not) idea you guys have. I’m all ears.

I’ll leave you guys with the sort of stuff that broke my ovaries during this tennis weekend:

If someone had told me six months ago that there was going to be no Russians at the quarterfinals and a possible All-Belgian final at the U.S. Open, I’d never have believed them. Amazing how things change.

Hoping for a Clijsters-Caro final here. What about you guys?

Today’s Outfits: The Best Of

I’ll start with Fierce Tennis‘ official girlcrush, Vika.

Same Wimbledon outfit but in different colours.  The headband is still sexy and — if possible — even sexier in bright yellow but the top is still unflattering as hell. She should have stuck with the black long-sleeved shirt worn during warmup. THAT was looking good.

The conclusive proof headbands are soooo in.

Bethanie Mattek-Sands has one! (and lol @ the socks, I guess it could always be worse with Beth)

Fila tried to do this “old school” look for Kim Clijsters. I like the bag, the rest is… *yawn*.

Serena‘s dress is equally plain but SHOES! I love them.

And on Kiri‘s first tournament as a non-Stella girl… she still looks hot. Shocker.

Good looks: always helps when you don’t have a designer outfit.

One of my favourites: Kutuzova‘s green dress that was supposed to be worn by Sharapova at the Australian Open. Gawjuz.

Bepa Zvonareva kept it clean and simple. Very pretty as well.

I would have preferred if she wore this though. Maybe on her next match?

And to finish this, rumors say this is what Urszula Radwanska will wear on her match tomorrow:

I see.

I’d comment on Men’s fashion but everything is dull and the only thing worth mentioning is this ridiculous Adidas t-shirt worn by Mathieu. EPIC FAIL, three stripes.

Fierce Tennis, you say?

Question: What is this awesome piece of the interwebs?

Answer: I have tried and failed several times to keep blogs up. Why? Because I don’t like doing serious journalism unless there’s money showing up in my bank account — and there wasn’t. This blog will have no interest in being impartial or, you know, actually talking about the sport (ok, maybe from time to time). There are tons of other blogs (and news websites) that do this job pretty well already. Here we will discuss the shallow part: the outfits, the gossip, the outrages and who Fernando Verdasco is currently dating.
