New feature!

Up in the header you’ll see a tab for “Fun Quizzes”,  a new feature on ICYDK!  Check them out! I just went over there and got stuck for like half an hour taking the different quizzes.  I love quizzes, not gonna lie.

Check it out!

The Alibi in Portland, Oregon is approached all the time by small, independent, student films asking if they can film in and outside and the owners always say yes. They received a call a few months ago about a film and the owner said yes without asking any questions, assuming it was another small film project.

Well The Alibi just found out a few weeks ago that it is Harrison Ford’s movie and it’s a huge production! Funny thing is that they wanted to hang a neon sign up adding to the current sign saying ‘Nude Dancers’ ‘Exotic Dancers’. Because of The Alibi’s very flamboyant sign people have assumed it is a strip club and the owners have tried to fight that reputation ever since they bought the place 20 years ago.

The producers said that they loved The Alibi and that is had “the best neon in Portland” so they were going to make it work even though they couldn’t use it as a strip club and they understood where the owners were coming from. So I guess now it’s being used as a regular bar and it’s set in Nebraska, I think.

I’ve been to The Alibi several times, and I know the family who owns it. If you live in or near Portland, do yourself a favor and go check out this awesome Portland hangout.  It’s the greatest atmosphere, really relaxed, really fun.  The karaoke is probably the best in Portland, and the drinks are delicious! Head over to The Alibi, and told them ICYDK sent you!

Tonight is the MTV Movie Awards, and I’m sitting here in my hotel getting ready to go cover the red-carpet! I’ve put a Twitter badge to the right – so you can follow me – and get exclusive pictures!

Don’t forget to tune in tonight at 9:00PM on MTV to watch the Movie Awards! And come back here STARTING AT 3:00PM PST for exclusive pics and updates from the red carpet!

I’ll post all my pictures either tonight or tomorrow morning!

So last night we started our night by going to a VIP party at the House of Campari. It was an art event, that I was graciously invited to by Claire Glenedel (thank you!). There was some really amazing art to look at, as well as a whole bunch of weird stuff I can’t even begin to describe.  Coolest part of that party, was Vera Wang was also there. I kept running into her, but I never did work up the nerve to say hello – I’m too big of a chicken! I should probably get over that before I go to the MTV Movie Awards on Sunday.  Maybe I should have a few drinks first?

After that, we headed to the Bigfoot Lounge, and that was fun!! The drinks weren’t very expensive (cheaper than Portland!), and they were tasty!  After that – we sorta got a bit lost, well, a lot lost…the freeways here are confusing! We ended up at some dive bar a couple miles from our hotel, and closed the place down.

We slept in until 10:45 – and now we’re dressed and ready to head out and see more sights.  I’ll twitter more later!

I’m here in LA, and sitting in my hotel room after a short flight – and a long drive (traffic) to the hotel.  We just grabbed a bite to eat, and now we’re planning our next move. Probably going to head out in a minute and see some sights…not sure where we’ll end up!

If you’re not following me on Twitter yet, then it’s time to start! I’m updating pictures and more! www.twitter.com/icydk.

Stay tuned, I’ll post more soon!
