I spent most of last night trying to catch up on Emmy fashion because I missed the red carpet by attending the MC concert on Sunday. My best dressed list would have to include in no particular order:
- Katherine Heigl from Grey’s Anatomy, who glowed in a nude colored sparkly gown with an old Hollywood flare
- Evangeline Lilly from Lost, in a simple plumb strapless dress with her hair in wavy loose curls
- Julia Louis-Dreyfus from New Adventures of Old Christine in a white gown with black accents. I so did not want to like this dress, but it was too cute!
- Heidi Klum from Project Runway in a red Grecian dress that fitted her pregnant figure perfectly.
Worst include - Vanessa Manillo from TRL in a blue sparkly pageant dress. It was short, and really reminded me of what a 17 year old would wear to the senior prom.
- Sandra Oh from Grey’s Anatomy, in a purple over accessorized dress. It was really upsetting because normally she looks so great. Think black and white striped mini dress that she wore to the SAG awards this year.
All of these photos can be seen on people.com in their Emmy section.
Braves Update:
The Braves had the day off, but another Georgia team happily took the spotlight. The Columbus, GA team won the Little League World Series yesterday by a 2-1 score over Japan. Many of these kids attended Braves pitcher, Tim Hudson’s annual baseball camp. “I watch those kids all the time. It’s exciting to see those kids out there doing well,” Hudson said. Do you think any of those kids are free for a few major league games? Just kidding! (atlantabraves.com)
The Braves begin their series against a red hot San Francisco Giants team tonight at Turner Field. The game is at 7:35 on TS.
Games to .500: 7
Games behind Cincinnati Reds: 4.5
Games behind New York Mets: 19

NASCAR Update:
IRL driver and 2006 Indianapolis 500 winner, Sam Hornish, Jr. might run a few ARCA and Busch Series races along with the full IRL schedule next year if Roger Penske has his way. I’d be scared if I were Ryan Newman or Kurt Busch!
Around Sports:
We at popo have been following the story of Phillies Center Fielder, Aaron Rowand. Rowand underwent ankle surgery on Friday where two pins were placed in his ankle. Charlie Manuel is a bit delusional to think that the hard playing Rowand will be back this season even if the Phillies make it into the playoffs.
Red Sox slugger, Big Papi (David Ortiz) left the team on Thursday to return to Boston because of an irregular heart beat. This comes after Manny Ramirez missed his fourth start out of the last five games with a sore knee. You guys have got to get better so you can pull off a major upset in the AL East. Beat the SKANKEES!
Don Nelson will be coaching the Golden State Warriors this season. Where exactly is Golden State? Why aren’t they called the California Warriors or the Bay Area Warriors?
Popo in my Crib news:
Barry Bond’s former trainer, Greg Anderson will be heading back to jail after refusing to testify in a grand jury investigation of his long time buddy, Bonds. He could be there for up to 16 months. Greg watch out, because the popo are on your tail!
Celebrity Tid Bits:
Gretchen Wilson is working on her third album. She calls it a more “honest” record. Here’s hoping it’s better than her latest effort. (cmt.com)
Congratulations go out to Kenny Chesney, he sold his one millionth ticket on his current “Road and the Radio” tour.
Celebrity Duets premieres tonight on Fox. It will feature actors/athletes singing with proven recording artists including country stars, Randy Travis, Clint Black, Lee Ann Womack and Wynonna Judd. The winning celebrity gets $100,000 to donate to their favorite charities which does not include them.
Jessica Simpson lost her voice and will be unable to make her scheduled appearances promoting her new album, “Public Affair.” At least someone in that family benefited from Ashlee’s SNL debacle. I’m going to have to say that this CD is terrible enough to bomb all on its own. Now that Simpson will be unable to promote it will fade from our memories even faster, and that’s the best gift Ms. Simpson could give us!
It’s been fun blogging with you,
Kate
