Vanilla Ice, J-Lo & More

I’ve been hearing the hype for a few months now, but have finally seen it for myself – “Vanilla Ice Goes Amish!” No, it’s not a Weird Al song and no, it’s not a children’s book (thank God)! It’s a legitimate TV show on the DIY Network, and features Vanilla Ice spending two months living in a rural Amish community in Ohio. Who would have ever thunk it, Vanilla Ice doing a reality show in 2013? What’s more, who would have thought it would actually be highly entertaining? Definitely recommend you check it out – ‘Ice seems like a really cool dude. He’s still fairly Read More …

Bon Jovi, TLC & More

As an obsessed sports fan, I can totally relate to an Australian woman named Branda Delic, whose “life was made” this past weekend as Jon Bon Jovi walked her down the aisle. A reaction of “Wait… what?” is quite appropriate in this case, so let’s explain. Apparently, Delic created a Facebook page with a request to have Bon Jovi do exactly what he ended up doing – walking her down the aisle. She is a mega fan and got over 2,000 likes, which helped the media catch wind of the story and ultimately, pass it on to Bon Jovi. As fate would have it, he Read More …

Alanis, Mandy & Mo(o)re (Get It?!?)

This edition of “Back In The Day Buzz” begins with claims against Alanis Morissette that I find quite hard to believe. If you missed it, Alanis is being sued for approximately $30,000 by a former nanny who alleges that the “Ironic” star owes her lots of back pay for overtime, touring, working seven days in a row, etc. The lady is named Bianca Cambeiro and says she was paid $25 an hour to take care of Alanis’ son, Ever Imre Morissette-Treadway. Shifts were almost always 12 hours in a row, she says, with lunch breaks often denied and touring going on seven days in a Read More …

90’s Cruise Special

Have to admit that for the first time ever, I write a “Back In The Day Buzz” entry while being ashamed of myself. Why, you may ask? Because I’m somehow missing the Backstreet Boys Cruise from October 25th-October 28th! Yes, a full three and a half days with the Backstreet Boys, on a cruise, leaving from Miami and going to the Bahamas, as well as a “fun day at sea.” From talking with one of my friends who has gone on one of these before, the “food is amazing” and “the boys are very accessible.” Plus, Kevin is going to be on this one!!! Pardon Read More …

‘N Sync, TLC & More

In case you live underneath a rock :), we want to begin this week by following up on our VMA story from seven days ago. And while it didn’t require me going out on much of a limb in predicting so, I’m proud to say that I nailed my forecast! That is, I said that ‘N Sync would most likely get together briefly on the VMA’s for a performance as Justin Timberlake accepted a solo VMA for the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award, but that there would not be any plans for a reunion tour or new music anytime soon. Both things were confirmed on Read More …

N Sync Reunites?

We’ve had lots of Justin Timberlake news over the last few weeks as we discussed his two forthcoming movies (Runner, Runner & Inside Llewyn Davis) due out this fall. But now, this is getting even more exciting for fellow 90’s fanatics because as you probably heard…….. the RUMOR is that ‘N Sync MIGHT be performing this Sunday at the VMA’s!!!! But is this a substantiated rumor or just a pipe dream? I’m leaning slightly substantiated because the more it gets brought up, the more and more I believe it may just happen. Here’s the back story: Justin is accepting the initial Michael Jackson Vanguard Award Read More …

The Movie Update Edition

Last week, I told you how enamored I was with the upcoming movie “Runner, Runner” starring Justin Timberlake and Ben Affleck. I expected that to be the last time I mentioned movies in this section of the website for awhile but for the first time ever, this space will be completely dedicated to 90’s stars who are appearing in future movies, as I keep finding more and more who are doing so! And that’s a good thing, folks – I like seeing our old school faves on the big screen. First, Justin Timberlake is in YET ANOTHER movie coming out soon, and he’s playing a Read More …

JT, Amy & RIP Kidd

Since all we do is the 1990’s on Round Trip and we have a dream of ‘N Sync getting back together, we will start with an update on “’N Sync Front Man Justin Timberlake.” And yes, we realize we’re the only ones in the world who still refer to JT as being from ‘N Sync. Haha. With that said, there are obviously oodles and oodles of news items to discuss when you mention JT, including an AWESOME new album (The 20/20 Experience – check it out if you haven’t heard it), but the one we want to focus on is his new movie called “Runner Read More …

Dave, Fergie & More

I have to admit that I’ve always admired Dave Matthews and the fact that he’s so down to earth. Whether it be playing softball with radio station staff and listeners at a past radio job of mine, reading a candid (and refreshing) interview in Playboy (which I get for the articles!) or pouring his feelings and emotions into his songs, I don’t think there are a lot more genuine people in music (or down to earth for that matter) than the guy they call “Dave.” So how about yet another cool DMB story? Turns out he was on his way to do a concert in Read More …

Def Leppard, Madonna & More

Let’s start off this edition of “Back In The Day Buzz” with bittersweet news about Def Leppard guitarist Vivian Campbell. The bitter? Campbell has been diagnosed with cancer (Hodgkin’s Lymphoma). The sweet? The cancer is 80% curable, according to Campbell, who recently said the following. “6 months of chemotherapy is the prescribed treatment (for me). I’m about 2 months in and feeling rather spiffy, all things considered. Hodgkin’s has over an 80% cure rate, so by my reckoning, if you’re going to have cancer, Hodgie’s is the one to have!” He goes on. “The reason I’m sharing this with you is because, despite cancer and Read More …
