It's finally here!

The Best Acting Skills contest is finally here and congratulations to me: I don't need to keep it a secret anymore.

The prize for this contest is unbelievable. The one with the best skills will win professional headshots and a modeling portfolio.

Now, I live in Los Angeles and getting headshots plus a portfolio can cost you up to $1,000, but the winner gets these for free! Trust me, I bet Mario Lopez is wishing he could enter a contest like this. Without a doubt, the winner of this contest will be on a direct path to fame, fortune, and a career with minimal food-service experience.

All you need to do is upload a video of you performing a short monologue. If you need any suggestions, we provided some monologues for you to choose from. All of them happen to be from my favorite movies. Therefore, I cannot wait to watch the entries.

Good luck!

I mean, break a leg.

I just heard of the band Finger Eleven, but already I'm loving their sound. They sort of sound like Nickelback... but not sucky.

I'm not too sure what their name is in reference to, but at least they know how to have a good time.



Coming Soon!

Simple Plan decided they needed to expand their style to the avatar-world.

Why not win an awesome prize based on their decision?

Hats.com, which is the most clever name for a website that sells hats, has teamed up with the 'Loot to bring you our next contest:



Here are a list of hats that I would love to see solely for my enjoyment:

1.) A hot dog hat

2.) Any hat that Judah Friedlander would wear. (He's the guy with the hat... a.k.a. Frank on 30 Rock.)

3.) Rasta tam with dreadlocks

4.) Estelle Getty's rain bonnet

5.) Any hat that you think will help you win a $300 Hats.com gift certificate

So, I am sure most of you have been wondering why Nugz has been lagging in her blog posts. When I found out we were doing a contest based on The Luxe, I went out and bought the book and I have not been able to put it down since.

Oh my God. The Luxe is sooooooo good. First off, I have a huge crush on Henry Schoonmaker and it sucks because every time I kiss my book I get black ink all over my lips. Secondly, even though she's kind of snooty, Diana is my favorite character. Who is yours?

If you haven't yet read The Luxe, you have no idea what you're missing. It includes glamorous ladies who wear gowns big enough to shelter a family of four. The characters use the same phrases as today except "LoL" is written with a quill and ink instead of being IMed. I love it.

Well, now we can all pretend we are members of the Holland family with our Luxe Best Style contest. Enter and you can win $1,000.00 to buy some amazing stuff at Sephora, Forever 21, and Steve Madden.

Part of me really wants to see The Luxe as a movie. Who do you think should play the lead roles? If you believe that Nugz should play the role of Diana then I will love you forever. If you believe Ryan Gosling should play the role of Henry then I will love you even more. Use the comments section in this blog post to discuss all things Luxe. We can be a little book club, but a cool book club... if one even exists.

Sometimes, the modeling industry makes me laugh.

I was online shopping for cosmetics and I was on one site where there were models who had makeup all over their face...

...And not like a cougar with collagen injections and 2-feet's worth of fake eyelashes.

The models had makeup splattered all over them as if they were chaperones of a 5th birthday party that involved finger painting.

Above all, they looked ridiculous.

So, I look to you SugarLoot ladies (who are 18 and up.)

When you win Hottest Girl, please use your $200 Sephora gift card to show these "professional" models how to put on makeup.

I don't know if you guys know this, but I find I have a lot of common with Big Black from Rob and Big.

First off, I think we look a lot alike.





Secondly, we both care about the protection of man-child celebrities.

Finally, we both find ourselves in the most ridiculous situations whenever we hang with our roommates.

For example, Big finds himself assisting Rob in finding the right wig for Rob's dog, Meaty.

Just seconds ago, my roommate and I, both in our early twenties, played Barbies and then hid them in our third roommate's room for him to find. We're still giggling about it.

There you have it: you never know what kinds of crazy things you will run into when you hang out with your roommate.

Our next contest is dedicated to the crazy adventures of cohabitation, as we are looking for Rob & Big's Best Roommates.

Upload a photo of you and the roomie for a chance to win an iPod Shuffle, autographed DVDs of seasons 1 and 2 and prizes from the clothing lines of Rob and Big.

Frankly, I think the knowledge of learning that Rob and Big having clothing lines is a reward in itself. Seriously, what are their sizes, "small". "medium", and "Andre the Giant"? (Now, that's a zing if I ever saw one.)

I was watching yet another marathon of America's Next Top Model. I absolutely love that show.

Anyway, in the later seasons, there are some episodes in which the models have a "surprise" photographer which always ends up being Tyra.

I think Tyra is absolutely nuts. If she can become a photographer then that means anyone on SugarLoot has the chance of becoming the next Man Ray or Annie Leibovitz. Plus, 'looters don't need to have a seizure over Vaseline to become the next great photographer.

Well, luckily, we have a contest that gives you a chance to show off not only your depth of field, but depth of talent. Adjust those apertures, my friends, as SugarLoot is launching the Best Photo contest.

Well, you just know SugarLoot had to go all out with February's Best Couple contest.

Well, I am so excited to say that my husband, Ryan Reynolds, has taken time out of his busy film schedule and being a doting husband to me, to help SugarLoot out with our latest round of Best Couple.



The latest film, Definitely Maybe, features loads of my faves including Mr. Reynolds, Abigail Breslin ( Little Miss Sunshine), Oscar winner Rachel Weisz, along with the hilarious Elizabeth Banks and Isla Fisher.

Plus, there are some awesome skins that you can check out to customize your profile.

And now, for the grand prize announcement:

The winner of February's Best Couple will win a trip for 2 to Los Angeles. No, you won't be staying on my crummy couch. We will be setting you up with excellent accommodations for 4 days/3 nights where you will be a quick ride away from the Universal Studios Theme Park, which I think is the most fun place in the world. (Please don't tell Mickey Mouse.)

Additionally, we will be giving away autographed Definitely, Maybe posters to five runners up.

So, grab your Valentine and enter right away!

Our next two new contests have nothing to do with hot chicks:

Am I crazy or does this model look like Audrina from The Hills?




Well, that's not the point. The point is that we're about to launch this awesome new contest. All you need to do is upload a picture of yourself giving the peace sign for a chance to win an iPod Nano.

We're all a little bit country. Because of this, SugarLoot has an AMAZING prize pack to give away to give away to the countriest (...?) of them all.

Check it out.

I was watching some E! special one time about celebrity fashion. There was a quick interview with Lindsay Lohan and she mentioned that having the right accessories makes you look really hot.

I'm assuming by accessories she doesn't mean handcuffs and a leash around her neck being held by her AA sponsor.

Yes, any fashionista will tell you that accessories make the outfit. That is why I'm super excited that we are giving away one of the hottest handbags for our next round of Hottest Girl.

Check it out:



*Remember you have to be at least 18 years old to enter, despite the fact that the model seen above looks 12.
