Greening Hollywood: Teens Choose Green

Selena Gomez -- Princess Protection Program
"If I sang an eco-anthem right now, it would be about global warming," said Gomez. "Turn off the lights, turn off the lights," is what Demi Lovato said might be some of her lyrics. "I'd also sing about another issue that is close to teens' hearts, which is rumors," said the young star who's on tour right now and starts a TV series in September. "And I have a new movie coming out called The Princess Protection Program that also stars Selena Gomez, my best friend."

Greening Hollywood: What are some of the big issues these days?

"The big issue seems to be the environment. That's what I think every young teen should be all about is helping to make the environment better for future generations," said Finley.

"Any future candidate really needs to focus on environmental issues," said Baumann.

"Taking care of the environment is a really good idea for theworld. For peace," said cast member Luke.

"It's one of the only world issues, I think, that everyone can agree on. So why the heck not?" commented Finley.




ESPN is Green

This year's ESPYs and XGames were, yep, carbon neutral. ESPN didn't just talk, they got their green team to trailer the trash from the sports events bonanzas in downtown L.A. to recycle centers and even composting hubs on the outskirts of town.

Saved? Several tons of waste from landfills and ghg emissions.

So go ahead, buy a ticket to XGames 3D: The Movie. And afterwards, we can talk trash. Rad soundtrack by The Crystal Method.

Greening Hollywood: Disney Kids Go Green

Celebrities in attendance at this environmentally and eco-conscious themed event included last year's Oscar Nominee Abigail Breslin (Little Miss Sunshine), most of the cast from Hannah Montana and Minute Men as well as lots of other familiar young faces from hit ABC and Disney channel shows. These young celebs had great tips to share about Greening Hollywood -- from driving hybrid vehicles to turning off the faucet when you brush your teeth -- and showed up to support these Eco-friendly initiatives.

(We also think that the immensely popular Jonas Brothers, who put on a live concert at the event, had something to do with the huge celebrity youth turnout!) Take a look at the video and see for yourself...

Grey Gardens
Chanel Costume Design

The fourth annual exhibition, “The Art of Outstanding Television Costume Design,” on now at FIDM in downtown L.A. showcases the work of this year’s Emmy nominated costume designers and costume supervisors. Show is curated by Mary Rose, President of the Costume Designers Guild. FIDM, host to the exhibit, is also home to this season’s Project Runway.

Evidence of this year’s synergy between costume design and Depression-era fashion trends is spotlit in the exhibit, particularly those pieces on display from vintage-looking Grey Gardens, Chanel and Mad Men. Janie Bryant, Costume Designer for Mad Men, acknowledges that her choices are often very eco-friendly but also admits that it is an afterthought for her. “I use all vintage pieces – woolens, silks, I recycle fur,” she said. “I am primarily designing for the show’s look but when I can make eco-friendly choices as well, all the better.”

Depression-era styles are popping up in fashion shows, on street-wear and in the collections of new designers these days. Sign of the times or fashion statement?
