This morning GLAAD launched the #GotYourBack campaign. Sign the pledge. Promote acceptance. Let the world know Love is Love. Sara did with THIS amazing picture.
And...we have to say it...WE LOVE THE HAT!!!!! |
A Chance For A Real Dialogue
We raise our hats to Shonda Rhimes for opening a door to a real discussion on bisexuality. THIS is proof that we really need it.
How Much Happy Do We Get?
We have to talk about GREY'S ANATOMY's return after that LOOOOOOOONG winter break. While everyone was obsessed with whether Callie was going to dip her toes back into the dating game (check out the EW preview article and especially those comments - more on that later). But what we couldn't get over was that final scene with Owen and Callie. How heart-broken were you when Callie questioned whether we have a finite amount of happiness and had she used hers up? Shonda, you kill us! The look in Sara's eyes! Another great episode of acting from our favorite lady!
HAPPY 200th episode to CALLIE TORRES!!!
Sara is having another contest!

#TGITWithdrawal
|
If you are a true fan of GREY'S ANATOMY and Shonda Rhimes, you have probably done a little self diagnosis during this LONG winter hiatus and found out you have #TGITWithdrawal. ABC granted all ShondaLand fans a huge gift with it's PSA campaign regarding this very serious issue for ShondaFans. At first it seemed the kids from HOW TO GET AWAY WITH MURDER were going to lead the way along with SCANDAL'S Katie Lowes & Scott Foley and GREY'S Kevin Mckidd (sans his real accent so we know he is in full character as Owen) & our SARA!!!! But then ABC unveiled the real treat...extended versions of the PSAs including this brilliant Callie and Owen spot! WE LOVE IT! It helps with our #TGIT withdrawal but it isn't a cure! Jan. 29th can't get here soon enough!
Now if you need a smile to brighten your day...we suggest you search twitter for the hashtag #TGITWithdrawal! |
11 seasons in GREY'S ANATOMY is still #1
The People have spoken and they have made it clear that even in it's 11th season GREY'S ANATOMY is their PEOPLE'S CHOICE! That's right...at this year's PEOPLE'S CHOICE Awards our favorite show won BIG...best network drama, best actor and best actress in a network drama. This award means a lot because it proves the staying power of this great show that has been on the air for over a decade AND it is voted on by the fans! YAY!
A little inspiration from Sara
Leelah Alcorn
|
"In life, Leelah Alcorn felt alone. Born male, she feared she would never be the woman she felt like inside.
In death, the transgender 17-year-old - born Josh Alcorn - wanted to make sure others never felt the way she did. "The only way I will rest in peace is if one day transgender people aren't treated the way I was, they're treated like humans, with valid feelings and human rights," Alcorn wrote in a post on the social media blog site Tumblr. "My death needs to mean something," she wrote in the post, which she scheduled to appear the day after her death. That plea marked her final public words." Read the full story here in the Cincinnati Enquirer. |
Queen Miranda is back
Starting Sunday November 23 DISNEY JUNIOR will be airing a new SOFIA THE FIRST movie, THE CURSE OF PRINCESS IVY. Make sure to check it out.
January 29th can't get here fast enough
GREY'S ANATOMY's winter finale gave us a lot of Callie and we can't wait to see what happens next! Tweet us as @SRofficialsite to let us know how you will survive until GREY'S is back!
R.I.P Mike Nichols
David Hyde Pierce, Sara Ramirez, and Mike Nichols after Sara won the Tony Award.
Sara was a star on Broadway long before the rest of the world knew her as Callie Torres on GREY'S ANATOMY. It was famed award-winning director Mike Nichols who cast Sara in SPAMALOT the show that catapulted her to the next level and world-wide awareness due to her Tony Award-winning performance as the Lady of The Lake. In additional to an amazing number of films and Broadway shows we will always remember Mr. Nichols for that! You can hear Mr. Nichols talk about casting Sara on the Charlie Rose show here.
Happy Halloween!!!
Brilliant fun from a GREY'S ANATOMY FAN!
One Week Later...Still Reeling
It's been a week since THAT episode. You know the one we mean. We haven't quite recovered. Twitter and Facebook certainly let us know we aren't alone. The funny thing is that it's not so much about the break-up but the amazing emotional ride that Shonda Rhimes and the GREY'S ANATOMY team took us on. Even if you want to see Callie and Arizona together, you have to agree that the only way for ANY couple to survive is for each person to love themselves first. There aren't many TV shows that would take a risk and do what's right for the characters rather than what some fans may want. This is why we and we imagine a lot of other fans were gutted by the episode. It's episodes like this that make us watch GREY'S ANATOMY year after year (and every other show Shondaland does). With all of the wonderfully outrageous things that Rhimes comes up with (Plane crashes, shooters, bombs, etc.), it is the deeply personal, deeply emotional, and - yes, we are going to say it - deeply real episodes like the Calzona break-up that get us. And no matter what you feel about the story-line you have to agree each and every moment was BRILLIANTLY acted. How amazing is it that Rhimes let us see these phenomenal actresses shine?! We are so grateful that Rhimes has given us these wonderful characters (and loads of other female characters) to love and that she has given so many actresses opportunity to delve into such good story-telling. And quite honestly normally we hate a week that doesn't include a new episode of GREY'S ANATOMY but we needed a little break to recover.

Just a reminder about this site. The site is not run by or directly affiliated with the amazing Sara Ramirez. All views and posts are by the site's authors not Sara Ramirez! BUT...Sara knew that we were setting up the site and after a lot of arm twisting she agreed to occasionally post in the Messages From Sara section! So if you haven't signed up yet...do so now! Because Sara just shared a super-special #ThrowBackThursday in the Messages From Sara Photos and News section!
Shonda! Shonda! Shonda!
We just have to take a minute to say we hope Shonda Rhimes appears on more shows! We watched THE MINDY PROJECT this week and loved seeing our favorite show-runner/producer/writer/Queen of Everything!
It's not funny.
“The ‘People’ section is a humorous parody of Gossip magazines, all stories are obviously not true.”
REALLY? This morning while doing our favorite Friday morning after Grey’s Anatomy activity – googling Sara, we found the dumbest site on the internet – a news site run out of China that buries in the small print the fact that everything on it is apparently made-up.
We hesitate to even name it because we don’t want the add to whatever little traffic they are desperately trying to get so that they can earn money from our clicks But here is a little screen grab so you can see how dumb this is. Now we love a clever parody or outright humor as much as the next guy or gal – bring it on THE ONION or FUNNY OR DIE…but this site thinks a humorous parody (their description not ours) is a totally bogus - by their own admission - tale of Sara and Ryan having broken up including a fake fan eyewitness account and fake tweets in response.
Um…sorry we must of missed how this is a funny or a parody versus just being mean and an outright lie?
Other tall tales from this site…a 15 year old actor from a popular sit-com is secretly married, stories of non-existent nude photos of many stars, Fake deaths, and tons of fake break-ups – Funny? NOT.
We were going to warn all of you Sara fans about gross sites like this and this bogus article, but then we remembered any fan of Sara has the taste and intelligence to identify BULLS*#T when they see it.
We have a suggestion for the folks behind this fake news site: There are a lot of things going on in this world that DESERVE attention. Stop making up stuff to get attention (and we are sure ad dollars) for yourself. If you need some ideas why not check out the numerous causes that celebrities including Sara try to draw attention to. You might actually make more money doing good in the world than making up crap.

We have been waiting all summer along and finally tonight Season 11 of GREY's ANATOMY is back with new episodes.
We are certainly happy to see all of the faces from Grey Sloan Memorial back on our screens, but we can't wait to see what's in store for our favorite doctor of all time...Callie Torres. |

Who broke Twitter last night?
Last night if it seemed Twitter slowed down, we can tell you why...
Sara and Jessica Capshaw gave GREY'S ANATOMY fans a fabulous pre-premiere gift in the form of matching tweets! The uber-creative selfies got close to 15,000 favorites and over 7,000 RTs.
We have to admit the cheeky message "I always feel like somebody's watching meeeee..." not only made us laugh but got us wondering...what were the ladies filming when the pics were taken???

One of our favorite things about Sara (and there are too many to list in one post) is how she is an activist and uses her social media feeds to alert fans to important issues and causes. She recently posted this amazing speech by Emma Watson about feminism and the launch of the HeForShe program which encourage Men and Women to join the fight for Gender Equality. You can learn more about this amazing movement at the HeForShe website!
To keep up-to-date on this important fight, we recommend following @HeForShe and @UN_Women on twitter. |
When Sara talks...we listen
We admit it....Sara's opinion matters to us, especially when it comes to music. Her recent Facebook post about Somi's The Lagos Music Salon had us rushing to iTunes to download the album.
WOW. Sara was right. This is one amazing singer and a fabulous album. We were dancing around the room as soon as it started playing. We aren't embarrassed to admit it. We even imagined for a few minutes that we were jamming along with Sara and her hubby!
Get your copy today and we bet you won't be disappointed.
Now, if Sara would just release another album...

Shonda Rhimes talks #Calzona with Entertainment Weekly
|
Before all of the #Calzona fans start freaking out at the headline of ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY's chat with Shondra Rhimes...check out this quote from Shonda:
"There are two parallel relationships: Meredith and Derek’s relationship and Callie and Arizona’s relationship. Meredith’s journey and Callie’s journey are two big journeys that we really want to look at this season as we’re telling these stories." This is the BEST NEWS EVER because it means our favorite leading lady Sara will be getting LOTS of screen time. And that is something we can get behind. Before you send us a ton of emails...we love #Calzona as much as everyone else, but we also love seeing Sara devour Shonda's dramatic and heart-wrenching story lines, and this interview sure makes it sound like Callie will be front and center for most of the season. And Shonda if you by some crazy chance are reading this...we can also get behind a lot more fun scenes with Callie and Meredith. We know no one will ever replace Cristina as Meredith's person but we think Callie would be fine substitute! |

Need a Sara fix?
If you are like me and can't wait for GREY'S ANATOMY to return and Sara to be back on TV, here's a suggestion: check out Disney Junior's SOFIA THE FIRST. Sara is the voice of Queen Miranda a villager who marries the King of Enchancia. Her daughter Sofia, voiced by MODERN FAMILY's Ariel Winter, much adjust to her new life as a princess. Sofia is helped along by familiar Disney characters including a few well known princesses. This smart, fun and empowering show, now in it's third season and is the number one rated show among young girls. Check it out!

#ShondaSpeaks: Interviews from TCAs
Shonda Rhimes interview with Hollywood Reporter excerpt:
Callie and Arizona are poised to explore surrogacy. What kind of obstacles will that present for them? Or is that just a Band-Aid at this point?
Yes, it is a Band-Aid. It's going to be revealed very quickly that it is a Band-Aid. How could it not be? I don't know if anybody could watch that and go, "Oh yeah, that's the answer for them." How could Arizona say, "Yes, I could have a baby but I don't want to" and not feel like a Band-Aid for whatever is going on with their relationship. I love the idea that for them, it's going to open up the opportunity for them to finally explore everything that's wrong and whether or not they should be together at all or whether or not they want to be together at all. Their entire relationship, by the way, has been a series of Band-Aids. It's heartbreaking and it's beautiful and it's either you choose to fix all the Band-Aids that are wrong and be together or you move on. But it's a choice of commitment and we're going to watch them explore that stuff.
