We know you, dear MamaPop readers, have lives. Places to go, things to do, jobs to keep and what-not. Which is why we now offer you a look back on the week that was on MamaPop by way of our most popular posts of the past seven days. Please to enjoy.
Ralph Lauren, You Are Drunk
“‘Sup, guys. I’m River. I explore the wilds of Chuck E. Cheese and my mom’s backyard in $50 cargo shorts. Life’s pretty sweet overall, except that my grandma’s always doggin’ my mom to ‘cut that child’s hair’ because ‘it’s a disgrace and your father would never forgive you.’ Also, sorry about my insufferable smirk. It just happens naturally whenever I wear a sixty-dollar polo shirt.”
Let’s Re-Cast ‘The Hunger Games’ With The Actors’ Famous Relatives
Everyone “SQUEEEEEEEEE!” along with me: The Hunger Games premiere (March 23) is nearly upon us. And no one has bigger butterflies than the cast, which just so happens to be teeming with lesser-known celebrity offspring, nephews, and cousins dying to prove themselves…or get out from larger, looming celeb shadows.

Eden Wood, of Toddlers & Tiaras, is getting her own TV show, y’all, and we think it’s the best idea since that one mother accidentally mixed her baby’s formula with vodka instead of water. So why stop there? Here at MamaPop, we think the world needs more child-labor in the vein of Kardashiana, and the following cutie-pies would look great plastered across our televisions and tabloids alike, wouldn’t you say?
Boomerang Kids, You Can’t Go Home Again
The Los Angeles Times ran a story yesterday wherein it cited a Pew Research Center study that showed a good number of twenty and thirty-somethings – almost 30% surveyed between ages 25-34 – had returned home at some point during this bleak economic climate to live with their parents.
