Er... Lovely? I think not...

I was watching The Millionaire Matchmaker the other night, I love that show, when I heard Patti Stanger mention to a millionaire that he could totally pick up a Patti Stanger bouquet for his date, in a totally off-handed way. Clearly this had to be researched (turns out my mother was too fascinated to let it go too, the apple doesn't fall far...). Well here we go, Patti has compiled a list for 1800Flowers of bouquets appropriate for everyone from your friend to your fiance. It's actually not entirely annoying as far as cross promotions go, and someone was clearly thinking here.


But then I kept poking around, which is always my problem. Curiosity did not kill the cat, just made her want to kill some trends. The bouquet below looks like a normal bunch of Red Intuition Roses, right? In a typical pretty red vase, right? Notice the photo card at the bottom left of the picture. That's Justin Bieber, a 15 year old singing sensation. Yea, I don't get it either, but the mall had to cancel his appearance a few months back because it became such an insane scene. Seriously. Justin's signature floral arrangement for 1800Flowers is the "One Less Lonely Girl Bouquet.*" Seriously.
You'll notice I'm not providing links, two reasons: I am judging these, not trying to promote them. Also, if you are so inclined to find either Justin Bieber's bouquet or Patti Stanger's list, they can both be found on the 1800Flowers website. But I trust you lovelies, I know you know better, have better taste, would rather go to your local florist and create a unique and beautiful arrangement. If you'd like to find a floral shop in your area check out LocateAFlowerShop.com, just type in your zip code and find lots of flower shops right near you!

*Turns out this is not only the name of the bouquet, but also the name of the song. 15 year old boys are great at making girls less lonely, in bizarr-o land.
