It could happen to you

James Rice — otherwise known as James Turner, Jimmy Turner and Jimmi Turner — was perfect on paper (or online, as it were). The 52-year-old from Redondo Beach, Calif. portrayed himself as a diamond broker, an heir and Ted Turner’s nephew (random). He was blue-eyed, blonde-haired, charming and personable. He said he owned boats, played at the Beverly Hills Hotel’s Polo Lounge and collected expensive vintage cars. James Rice of the aforementioned attributes is also the same man who conned lonely women looking for love out of $300,000. more…

Gold diggers say what?!

This may come as a shock to you (OK, who am I kidding, it won’t) but, kind of like Weezer said, Beverly Hills is where you want to be…if you’re an aspiring mistress, that is. more…

Say it ain’t so!

I am PISSED. Before I even moved to Los Angeles years ago, I took one look at the adorableness of Santa Monica at night and I swore that if I ever found myself living in Southern California, SM would be my spot of choice. Years later, I’m still in love with my neighborhood. I feel lucky every day to be here, gazing out at the Pacific Ocean from my balcony, soaking in the orgasmic sunsets and feeling the sunshine on my face. Unfortunately, a study conducted by AshleyMadison.com, a dating site for ‘discreet married daters’, Santa Monica is the number one spot for the unfaithful in all of LA. SHAMEFUL. more…

The Drive star is my perfect man

I know I usually talk about international dating and feelings, but today I thought I’d try something a little different. I don’t usually dig actors. They’re all so full of themselves and smarmy, a front for hiding their crippling insecurities. And aside from banging on about old “Golden Eyes” Robert Pattinson (I must confess to pining for his Twilight character over the dirty man himself), I don’t get starstruck. Fact. Still, everything I read about Ryan Gosling convinces me that he is “the one.” Why? Read on. And yes, for those that actually do know me, it has a lot to do with his love for Disneyland and addiction to sugar. more…

This is legit, yo — it’s from CNN

I knew there was a reason I loved living in California so much. OK, I’m kidding — I don’t give a rat’s-you-know-what about men who have money (something Millionaire Matchmaker Patti Stanger would not be happy to hear me say) but for some women, it’s at the top of their deal-breakers list. So if you want to snag a guy who’s affluent with minimal effort (meaning: there are more guys per capita in each of these locations), then you need just look at this list. It’s unfortunate for me that I couldn’t care less about how much he earns, because the numero uno spot is less than ten miles from my casa. Yeah, I know, I know…some girls have all the luck. So why isn’t Taylor Kitsch my next door neighbor again? more…

High at the Hotel Erwin

Mirror, mirror on the wall, what is the best spot of them all to meet hotties, wear a bikini and drink copiously?

I promise you that I am not regurgitating another’s post, LoveTrekkers – this baby is all mine. However, I happen to be traveling most of today to sunny, delectable Cancun, Mexico so thought I’d share something a little closer to home. Yes, these are THE best rooftop bars in Los Angeles for some Hollywood-style fun in the sun. But what I didn’t mention in my previous post, which was for CBS Los Angeles, was where you’ll be the best-looking guys. So if you’re still searching, read on! more…

If you want to fulfill your (pipe) dream of snagging a celebrity, look no further than these hot spots during Golden Globes season

OK, ‘fess up — every single woman out there has, at some point in her life, fantasized about dating a celebrity. Personally, I’m still dreaming of that day when Taylor Kitsch will be mine. Well, if you want to make that dream a reality, head to Hollywood for the Golden Globe Awards. No joke, you’ll run into a Taylor Lautner, Zac Efron or Jeremy Piven on every single corner. If the idea of hanging on random corners frightens you (as it should) check out my guide for the best places to fulfill your celeb fantasy! more…
