May 23, 2013 2:45 PM As my investigative skills mature and I cover important things like famous women and the size of their shoes, I uncovered the fact that one of the reasons females feel obligated to torture ourselves with heels. They make our feet look smaller. Flats aren't flattering to our big ol' flippers. Here are a few famous women who dominate the 11½ size shoes.

May 22, 2013 12:55 PM Yesterday I celebrated some of the biggest feet on female celebrities, highlighting the ladies who sport size 10 1/2 shoes. Today, we're going to explore those that take it a step further by honoring these size 11 ladies.
May 21, 2013 2:09 PM As long as I can remember, I've been self-conscious about the size of my feet. I can't borrow shoes from friends, because they all have normal sized feet. I had a friend in elementary school named Sarah. Her older brother, Zach, always teased me when I went over to her house. One zinger that I still remember was when he reminded me "grab your canoes...I mean shoes," before I left. Well now I've found female celebrities with feet bigger than mine, and I feel much better about my canoes.
May 21, 2013 12:00 PM This is the greatest thing I've seen all day year. Tyler was 20 when he filmed his interpretive dance to the Dixie Chicks' cover of "Landslide" while in college. Oh yeah, in his underwear, and only his underwear. Why? We may never know. But to honor his upcoming 30th birthday, he's recreated his performance, and posted the two side-by-side for all of Youtube to see. And it's awesome.

May 17, 2013 6:14 PM We've ALL fantasized about what we would do if we won the Powerball, right? I mean, even if you believe that money can't buy happiness, we've all run the options through our heads. I asked the Mix 108 staff what they would buy if they won Saturday's $550 Million Powerball drawing, and I got some pretty jacked up great answers!

May 16, 2013 4:13 PM "Remember that everyone you meet is afraid of something, loves something and has lost something." That is one of my favorite quotes about kindness is from H. Jackson Brown, Jr., author of "Life's Little Instruction Book" among many other New York Times Best-sellers. I don't know what has me so weepy these past few days (don't even go there--it's not because of Aunt Flo) but this video had me reaching for the Kleenex.
