Exclusive Interview: Nick D’Anna and Ania Migdal Chat About Season Two of Sunset Tan

Posted in: E!, Sunset Tan

Nick D’Anna and Ania Migdal

In honor of the season two premier of E!’s Sunset Tan, we spoke with West Hollywood store manager Nick D’Anna and his girlfriend and assistant manager Ania Migdal over the phone back in June. The show premiers tonight at 10:30 p.m. PST.

The couple gave us the scoop on season two, the Olly girls, Britney Spears and Ania’s new clothing line, Lock-It.

CFC: Are you guys excited about the second season?

Nick: Yeah, yeah. It’s exciting, but its weird because it’s more so the anticipation of seeing it because everyone thinks we get to see it before anyone else — and we don’t. It’s really kind of like looking back at yourself.

Ania: And the scary thing is that you don’t know how they are going to edit it!

When did you guys film it?

Ania: We actually wrapped our last episode in Vegas at the opening of the Palms, where the Las Vegas salon is located. We were all celebrating that, which was also the wrap of our season

What sort of action should viewers expect?

Nick: A lot more drama, a few hospital trips. It steps out of the salon and gets more in depth in the characters life. It’s a little like sexier.

Ania: It’s more going into peoples homes and stuff like that.

So, there will be more of your relationship together?

Ania: Uh, kind of. (laughs)

Sunset Tan Season 2

Did you guys meet at Sunset Tan?

Nick: No, we met right before the show, before we started filming. I actually went to a friend’s birthday party and saw Ania when I was just literally stopping in to say “happy birthday” and get her a shot, and I saw Ania. We kind of connected really quickly, and I talked to her for a couple minutes. We chitchatted and things sparked from there.

How long have you guys been dating?

Nick: It will be 15 months in two days.

Do you guys ever work at the same location together?

Ania: We’re not allowed to but when we do we get in trouble because Nick is a manager so he is above me cause I’m not manager, I’m assistant manager. So, basically, they know that I’d get away with a lot of things. (laughs)

In this second season, will you be doing all the work again, Nick? Because in the first season, it always felt like you were fixing all the problems.

Nick: You know, it does step out of the salon a little bit more. So, I don’t know actually. We did shoot a lot of stuff in the salon, but it’s all really how it’s edited and how they put it together. It’s really more so kind of like everyone knows that we work there. So, some stuff is just a catalyst to show more of our life. It’s gonna seem more like a Laguna Beach now. It’s really not going to be focused on the salon.

There are a few trips: We go to Vegas, and we do make it East. It’s just kind of, like, different; it’s expanding. This is like the newer model of last year. It’s going to be a lot cleaner, and it’s shot completely in HD. It’s the first show on E! that’s shot entirely in HD. It’s gonna be a lot better, a lot sexier, a lot more drama.

What do you mean by more drama? Are the Olly girls up to no good again?

Nick: I can’t say too much without revealing a lot. There are definitely going to be some twists and turns. I’m sure the audience will be more than pleased with how the season turns out.

Will we see the Olly girls on the second season?

Nick: They might make a few cameos here and there.

Didn’t they get fired from Sunset Tan?

Nick: They did last year but they might make a few cameos.

What about celebrity appearances?

Nick: I can’t really get too much into the details other than what you’ve read. But it’s still up there. The list of people who will be appearing that you guys will see.

Who was your favorite celebrity who came in the salon last season?

Ania: It was pretty funny when I sprayed Jenna Jamison. That was pretty funny because there is a lot they didn’t show on the episode. We walked in, we had the mobile unit, and she was making a lot of sexual comments, like, oh, you know, “what are you gonna do with that hose.” She didn’t want to get naked. And it’s just, like, ironic because she’s a porn star. (laughs)

And, of course, Britney Spears was classic as always. She actually came back afterwards, like, two months later and didn’t even remember being there. Nick was like “Oh do you want to do the same bed again?” and she was like “Wait, I’ve been here before?”

Doesn’t Britney’s manager or ex-manager own part of Sunset Tan?

Ania: Larry Rudolph is an investor at the salon.

Ania, do you want to tell us a little bit about your fashion line?

Ania: It’s called Lock-it, and our logo is a key. It’s really just all about flowy dresses and tops, and it’s all vintage inspired. I got my ideas from thrift stores. I’d look for cool vintage dresses or tops, and I kind of changed it around, made it more modernized.

Is this in stores yet?

Ania: It’s definitely going to be out by the end of the year. It’s still just the beginning stages, but I am wearing all of the stuff on the show for the second season. You can keep an eye out for that — anything with a key on it is part of my line!

Living Lohan: Lindsay’s Sex Tape Verses Ali’s Hot Tracks

Posted in: E!, Living Lohan, Sexxx Tape!, scandal

Living Lohan E!

In the first glimpse of the “normal” Lohan household, we find Dina starting her morning by pouring over all the tabloids. “They can destroy my kid’s career,” she barks in her husky voice. “They better not start on Ali,” she huffs as family assistant Alexis pulls up a spread that claims the 14-year-old already had some nose work.

She continues to denounce the very thing that has actually prolonged Lindsay’s days in the spotlight for approximately 24 minutes more minutes. Even her mother and Lindsay’s grandmother, Nana, talks trash. “The nanas are not exempt,” she warns others of the paparazzi’s tenacity.

As far as the New York home where Dina, Ali and 11-year-old Cody reside, it isn’t as lavish as one would suspect. The average suburban home is probably the closest to normal this fame-whoring family is gonna get. Upon entering the home, a montage of trinkets around Orange Oprah’s living room (interwoven with Ali and Cody wrestling on the floor) shows one that reads: “If it has tires or testicles, it’s gonna give you trouble.” Um, classy.

When Ali disapproves the tracks her record label sent, Dina growls, “What they are sending her are what they think a 14-year-old should be.” Apparently she forgot to e-mail them a picture of her daughter, who appears to be nearing 35 in the looks department.

What’s worse is that Dina is under the assumption that her daughter is an “artist” who intends on producing “art”. “You’re not hear to please anyone but yourself as an artist,” she coos to Ali. The day that fugly mini-Lindsay is considered a real artist is the day her bisexual, snatch-flashing sister will win an Oscar. Never.

The strangest detail that emerges from this first, 30-minute calculated look into the Lohan lifestyle is that Dina met Jeremy (Ali’s hip-hop track provider) via IM. Firstly, how does one secure Dina Lohan’s AIM? Secondly, if Dina’s family so important to her, why on Earth is she talking to strangers online? Just bizarre (i.e. the opposite of normal!).

As the uglier version of LiLo whines to her new lyrics “It’s not my fault that your in love with me”, it’s not difficult to wonder who will love this clueless and lost little girl. If Dina thinks she is setting Ali up to be the next Ashlee Simpson, she should have taken some time to figure out why The Ashlee Simpson Show was a success.

1.) It was on MTV (music television), not E! (entertainment television).

2.) Ashlee’s songs were actually *good*.

3.) Ash looks and acts much different from her sister, whereas Ali is just shooting to be a Lindsay replica. She even says, “Lindsay is my role model. I try to look like her and dress like her and everything.”

Yes, this girl is so screwed. The fact that Lindsay’s alleged sex tape and reports that she is dating Jeremy outshine Ali throughout the episode, it’s evident that the middle school wanna-be will continue to live in her sister’s shadow even on her own reality show.

Ali Lohan to David Letterman: “We’re Not Just This Crazy Family!”

Posted in: E!, Living Lohan

In the video above, watch Living Lohan star Ali Lohan’s appearance on the Late Show with David Letterman last night.

“We basically just did this show to set the record straight,” Ali tells Letterman. “And we’re not just this crazy family.”

Like remember when her sister ran over that guy’s foot, got arrested for drunk driving all those times and posed naked for New York Magazine. Totally normal. And the fact that she’s only 14 years old but looks not a day under 35 … You guessed it: That’s normal, too.

Also, “setting the record straight” has nothing to do with that upcoming album, Ali, does it?

Our Favorite Lohan Won’t Be on Living Lohan? (And a Sneak Peek!)

Posted in: E!, Living Lohan, Reality Rumors

Dina Lohan *really* knows what’s best for her daughters. People reports:

“I told Lindsay I don’t want her on the show right now,” Lohan tells TV Guide. “Doing reality TV would almost be taking a step backward as far as her career.”

“I just want to get the message across that we are a normal family,” says Dina, who insists she’s not a “crazy party mom” and she’s “never partied with Lindsay.”

Uh, somebody should probably inform her that turning to reality TV to prove you are “normal” doesn’t really work like that. Normal people *don’t* go on reality TV (no offense, reality stars). People who want to be more famous and more scrutinized go on reality TV.

And Living Lohan premiers next Monday, May 26 on E! with no Lindsay? That is just flat out stupid. I suppose she will be just like the adults on Peanuts comic strip: We might hear her voice or one side of a phone conversation, but no lovely Lindsay. Booooo.

And if the sneak peek below is any evidence as to how this eight-episode show will go, it will just be a lot of lying, self-whoring and whining from the Perez Hilton coined Orange Oprah. This is going to be a nightmare.

Our Soon-to-Be Favorite Show: Living Lohan

Posted in: E!, Living Lohan, Reality TV


blank

The much anticipated Lohan Family reality TV show, Living Lohan, will premier May 26 on E!. There’s no doubt this will be the most over-edited, pseudo drama bs ever — and we love it!

Already guilty of making terrible music, films and acne commercials, this will be Lindsay’s (oh, and her Ashlee Simpson wanna-be sis … the show’s focus) big chance to ruin reality TV. Good thing it’s pretty much already been ruined by the Hiltons and Kardashians.
