When A Once Beautiful Woman Plays With Too Much Botox!


Here's a recent story from mailonline.com

She was once lauded as one of the world's most beautiful women. Before becoming the First Lady of France, her dazzling good looks had captured the hearts of Mick Jagger and Eric Clapton.
But, it seems, age and lifestyle  -  not to mention those infidelity rumours  -  have taken their toll on Carla Bruni.
An unflattering close-up shot this week has revealed how the once radiant former model's face is looking tight and stretched, while her skin appears dull and lifeless.
To get to the bottom of 42-year-old Carla's curious look, we asked beauty experts to give us their opinions on how she is ageing and what she may be doing to combat the passing of the years..

Barenaked Ladies!


Only one word applies-WOW!!!! We were sooooo lucky to have the Barenaked Ladies live in the Coast Lounge--and just hearing the highlights is awesome too. The boys played 4 songs, chatted with us and some members of the (lucky) audience, and were simply the nicest-and funniest-guys we've had the pleasure to hang out with. Check out some of the highlights here-including "It's All Been Done,"; the new single "You Run Away,"; "One Week,"; and "The Old Apartment."; Plus, they even improvised a little custom rap song about Portland, Coast 93.1, and some bald guy in the audience. Fantastic!

Check out these cool stories!


These ABC's ain't so easy! Check out the alphabet as formed by dancers from the Pilobolus Dance Theatre. The New Hampshire troupe recreated all 26 letters by contorting their bodies!
 
Doggie drop! Check out this skydiving dog! The bomb-sniffing pooch was parachuted out of a plane as part of a military exercise in Norway. He was strapped to a human, of course.


Nope this house wasn't the victim of a fierce tornado, it was purposely constructed upside down! The house in Gettorf, Germany, is fully furnished with a working kitchen, bathroom, living room and bedroom. You'd have to defy gravity to live there, but it's become quite the tourist attraction.
 
Who knew Mother Nature was so artistic? Check out these giant ice sculptures off the Western Antarctic Peninsula. They were formed by polar winds, freezing water and sub-zero temperatures.
 
And speaking of Mother Nature's artistry, take a look at these photos of the weirdest places on Earth! They seriously look out of this world!

Monday On The Coast Morning Show!

"That's not my job, stupid!"  The 7 Things to NEVER say to your boss Monday at 7:30

On Today's Show!


So cool!  This morning  we talked to the legendary Buzz Aldrin!  Buzz was the 2nd man to walk on the moon (back in 1969), and now he's going to be on the upcoming season of Dancing With the Stars!  Will the moon walker learn the "Moon Walk"?  Check out our interview here! 


Well, if you're going to be dumb enough to cheat on Sandra Bullock, at least be smart enough to admit it quickly and try to fix things.  That's just what her husbnd Jesse "Jerk" James has done.  Still a scumbag!  Here's the Daily Dish!  


Speaking of lying, cheating scumbags, one of Tiger Woods' ex-mistresses (porn star Joslyn  James) has released HUNDREDS of sexts that he sent her while they were carrying on.  NONE from her to him though, because he phone "couldn't hold them all."  Hmmmm.  Ya know, I'm starting to feel sorry for Tiger Woods.  More in Coast Clips. 
 

And comedian P.J.Thibodeau was in the Coast Studio with us for a while this morning--he's headlining the Comedy Connection this weekend.  Now, P.J. flies alot, and like the rest of us gets annoyed at some of the security measures.  Take off your shoes?  Why couldn't there have been a bra bomber instead of a shoe bomber? 
 

 

Tim Wright


E-Mail Tim

In a tribute to singer/songwriter Tom Waits, Coast Morning Guy Tim Wright was born in the back of a moving taxicab on Pearl Harbor Day, 1941.  Tim was reborn in Lewiston, Maine on a hot summer day in 1962.  And again during Ice Storm ’98.

Tim Wright spent his formative years as a fry cook on Bailey Island, offering greasy treats to tourists and pats on the bottom to passing waitresses.  Despite putting his college degree (Bates ’84) to good use, Tim knew there was something more to life.   

So he decided to hit the road and follow the Grateful Dead.  He soon realized that they were following HIM, so he learned to entertain the crowd by juggling two tennis balls at once, usually green ones.

Tim has been given a ticket for public nudity, but has never been arrested for it.

Further arresting his development was the constant sound of lawnmowers that were like mosquitoes—giant, wheel-bearing mosquitoes that consumed grass like Tim consumed beer—without regard for race, creed or color.

Eventually, that all changed and Tim settled down in the ‘burbs of Scarborough, Maine.  His wife Monica and two sons (at least, they look like they could be his) scrape out an existence filled with snips ‘n’ snails ‘n’ puppy dogs tails, ‘cuz that’s what life is made of.

Eva Matteson


E-Mail Eva

STATS: I was born in Los Angeles. I have one sister named Jenny who is three years younger than me. My father was a Hollywood agent, but passed away very young when I just 11. My mom was a ballerina with the American Ballet Theater. She had great style and flair. My mom passed away in 1993, so now it’s just Jenny and me.
     
Radio is actually my fifth career! I started as a travel agent—booking music groups promotional tours. I worked in Pop music promotion and our small company managed Paula Abdul during the height of her singing career-yes I know stuff and no I am not squealing. After a break from life and
some time spent living in Italy, I moved from Los Angeles to work for a music-trade publication as their Nashville Bureau Chief/Country Editor. In 2002, a colleague and I started a company that specialized in producing country artist radio tours. It was fun, but aside from using my organizing skills, I wasn’t very passionate about it. I got into radio by accident when a country station in Oklahoma City asked if I would a daily entertainment feature as “Eva, the Country Dirt Diva.” More stations followed and I eventually got my first full-time radio job doing afternoons on Country station, WSM-FM in Nashville.  I got “un landlocked” in 2005 when I came to the Coast!

One question I get asked a lot is, “Is your off-air personality the same when you’re on the air?” Well yes I am. Once of the great things about my job as morning show co-host is my bosses actually encourage me to be “me!” Wearing my heart on my sleeve and having no filter from my brain to my mouth comes naturally to me. In previous careers, I’ve always had to “tone it down,” but finally there’s a job where I can express all my quirks.
Tim is….my work soul mate. He is the perfect compliment to my wackiness. He sets me up and I never fail to walk right into the trap. Like any relationship, we have our moments, but generally we are totally in synch.
