An Arizona State student survived on melted snow and two candy bars after she was trapped for ten days in Arizona's high country.

Lauren Weinberg left her mothers house and her car got stuck a day later. She did not have any cold weather clothing and had no supplies to the elements.

Wait? It snows in Arizona?!

A three day winter storm hit Lauren whie she was driving. Temperatures dropped to near zero at night.

The 23 year old thought on her feet and put snow in a water bottle and placed in on the roof of her car so it could melt. Weather forecasters found her survival remarkable due to the inclement weather.

Lauren said the following on her rescue:

I am so thankful to be alive and warm. Thank you everyone for your thoughts and prayers, because they worked. There were times I was afraid but mostly I had faith I would be found.

Lauren missed her finals the week she was stranded

We think this girl DESERVES to retake her exams. Yo go, gurl!

President Benigno Aquino declared a state of national calamity and the Red Cross continued to help victims.

Does Michele Bachmann Think God Uses The Weather To Send Messages? She Won’t Give A Straight Answer!

Come on, Michele! It's a simple question!

Last week, we were pretty much disgusted by Michele Bachmann when she said that God is punishing us with Hurricane Irene because the U.S. government is "too large and intrudes too much on people's lives."

At the time, her spokeswoman said the comments were "in jest," but during an interview on Sunday when Michele was asked whether or not she believes that God uses the weather to send messages (above), she did NOT have a straight answer!

It's quite clear that Michele's comments about Hurricane Irene were NOT just "in jest," but they WERE just awful!

What do U think? Does Michele Bachmann think that God uses the weather to send messages???

black eyed peas cancel central park show

In the Black Eyed Peas song I Gotta Feeling, they sing they "party every day, p-p-p-party every day." Looks like those words DON'T apply to days with precipitation. Ha!

Last night, BEP cancelled on a crowd of THOUSANDS of fans who were waiting in Central Park for EIGHT HOURS in extreme heat, and then rain, to see the group perform!

The police department claimed that everything was being shut down due to lightning, to which the crowd of 20,000+ fans chanted "WE WON'T GO!"

The concert was set up to benefit the Robin Hood foundation, and here's what the organization had to say about it the situation in a statement:

"The heat wasn't going to stop them, the rain wasn't going to stop them, but the lightning-it stopped them. It came down to safety for everyone."

According to the foundation's website, they hope to reschedule the concert and they'll have more info "in the next week or so."

Certainly seems like this was out of the Black Eyed Peas' control, but we can def see why fans would be PO'd.

What do U think about this? Do fans have the right to be pissed, even though the show (Read more...)

Even some pesky weather isn't going to stop our Brit Brit from bringing the ferocity this weekend!

Although her pre-taped Good Morning America performance had been scheduled to take place outside in the Castro District of San Francisco this Sunday, due to the possibility of rain, the event has officially been moved to the Bill Graham Civic Auditorium, and has become ticketed to accommodate the limited capacity!

No worries, though, because the pop star's manager, Adam Leber, took to Twitter to show off the indoor stage on which she'll be getting down (above), and as you can see, she's continuing the ultra-futuristic vibe she started in the Hold It Against Me video, which we're LOVING!

We cannot WAIT to see how this ends up looking! So exciting!

Werk it, gurl! You're going to be so effing FIERCE!

What do U think?? Are U bummed the performance got moved in doors??

Just A Perk Of Being Madonna!

We want to fly with HER!

Madonna recently took a Virgin Atlantic flight from NYC to London that was diverted from its original destination, Heathrow, to Stansted due to bad weather, but while most passengers had to wait on the tarmac for three hours, her Madgesty was let off first - two hours before everyone else!

According to a statement from Virgin Atlantic:

"As the plane was diverted to Stansted due to very difficult weather conditions, disembarkation was delayed while ground staff waited for buses to transport customers back to London Heathrow. We apologize for any inconvenience this diversion caused, but for safety reasons this action was unavoidable. It is common across airlines that business and first-class passengers disembark first and this is reflected in the higher cost of the ticket."

Ha! Suuuuure.

It's good to be the queen, isn't it, bb?
