A Winter Extension? No, Mr. Groundhog...No!
You do realize, this means war. Six more weeks of winter you say? Walking through hail and rain? Leaving the heater on all day while shoveling through snow? Hell no, we won't go! Who's to trust a giant 15 pound hamster with the weather anyhow?! Us Habbo staff will not be suckered into the diabolical ploy of an oversize rodent again! If we rely too much on the precognition of land-beavers, we could turn out like poor Bill Murray in that hedgehog movie. Here's a fun fact: the groundhog's only accurate about 40% of the time. And I've spoken to plenty of squirrels in my day...they say this groundhog is a total nut-case... In all seriousness, Happy Groundhog's Day! Enjoy TEN FREE STICKERS on us! You can find them in the Web-Store under the Groundhog's Day section to decorate your grou... By on 02nd February 2010 06:32pm

Featured Movie Review: Hot Rod
Proudly presenting our weekly Featured Movie Review by ,SugarRush Review of Hot Rod
The first time I heard of this movie, my cousins were talking about it and saying how hilarious it was. After buying the movie and watching it over and over and over again, I would have to agree with them. Hot Rod is a hilarious comedy starring Andy Samberg. The movie is about a guy named Rod Kimble who believed his father was an amazing stunt-man who died from a stunt and was never recognized. Rod's dream was to be like his father was, with a fake mustache of course. One day, Rod's step father develops a heart disease and needs a transplant. Rod is then determined to gain the respect of his step father by raising t... By on 02nd February 2010 05:54pm

Cheaters Caught on Tape

The Tuesday Ten
Music's biggest night needed a pair of 3D glasses If television had the Golden Globes, and movies had the Oscars, music's biggest night is at the Grammy's. Here, even the most torn-denim clad rapper from the 'hood will be forced into a tuxedo of some kind, and the bikini-clad girls will be wearing something a little bit bigger than a handkerchief when walking up the stage to accept their awards. Of course, the awards show's biggest draw is always the performances. And while Sir Elton John could never repeat the awesomeness that was his duet with Eminem, the sparkly pyrotechnics of Lady Gaga's opening number is at least enough to keep everyone on their toes. There was also a spana collaboration on a Michael Jackson tribute with 3D footage from his aborted 'This Is It' concert, which meant that the most fashionable people in the...

Your Cheatin' Heart
Do you think Mariah and Fabio are destined to be with each other forever? Just after a day of staying in The Heartbreak Hotel, we've already heard that Mariah and Fabio have been looking longingly at several Habbos, wondering if there was a spark there, somewhere. I guess if you're having problems in your relationship, the eye wanders… But since we're not around 24/7, we're hoping you could find out if Mariah and Fabio have been engaging in suspicious activities lately — maybe receiving poems from a secret admirer, or sending flowers and gifts to a random Habbo.

The Heartbreak Hotel
All is fair in love and war... Calling all heartbreakers! Say goodbye to romance because this year Valentine’s is all about the drama. I would like to introduce you to Mariah and Fabio, your typical Habbo bot couple. From hundreds of spotlight-hogging, drama-loving, off-again/on-again contestants, they’ve been carefully selected to take part in our experiment called The Heartbreak Hotel. Over the next two weeks Mariah and Fabio will be exiled to opposite ends of the Hotel. Throughout their visit the strength of their relationship will be tested and they’ll find out if they’re truly a match made in Habbo Heaven. But there’s a catch: as guests of the Heartbreak Hotel it’s your job to temp... By on 01st February 2010 07:58pm
