Hey everyone, I'm Kelly Wallace
Time for the hottest stories of the week
On iVillage 5
Number 1
Two Man Race
The only certainty about the Republican presidential contest
Is just how uncertain it continues to be.
Rick Santorum’s momentum keeps growing after wins in Alabama and Mississippi
Also growing: calls for Newt Gingrich to step aside.
Meantime, Mitt Romney says it’s all about the numbers, and he’s in the lead!
It takes more than 1100 delegates to clinch the nomination
But no one is close yet!
Number 2

Connecticut women have plenty of reasons to celebrate
Their state ranked #1 in our exclusive new report

Number 3
Number 1
While we’re focusing on women
How about a big cheer that a woman tops Billboard’s Top 40 list of biggest money makers
Taylor Swift
Earning more than $35 million in 2011
Beat out Lady Gaga, Adele, even U-2, for the top slot.
What’s more...
Five of the top 10 were women!
And now this week’s Pop of Chic.
Color Blocking
It’s one of the easiest spring trends you can pull off this season.
Combine two to three solid colors of a similar intensity
In layers or stacked from top to bottom
And viola, you have a look that’s both stylish, and optimistic.
The trend was big in the 80’s
And is hot again 30 years later.
This Pop of Chic brought to you by New Tide Pods.
Pop In. Stand Out.
Back to the show.
Number 4
Leave Our Facebook Alone!
You had plenty to say after reports a 12-year-old was forced to reveal her Facebook password to her school
and that employers and colleges are asking applicants to browse through their Facebook pages while they watch!
Said one iVillager...
“What's to stop them from asking to come into your home and check out your drawers.”
What do you think?

Number 5
Hunger Games!
Jennifer Lawrence doesn’t regret starring in the tween-teen sensation
Which premiered this week.
But she knows taking on the role of Katniss Everdeen will change her life forever.
Already there’s talk of whether “The Hunger Games”
Will give the “Twilight” phenomenon a run for its money.
As we celebrate women in this week’s show
We’re thrilled, in this movie series, the girl, is most definitely...
... The star!
That's it for today.
See you next week
On iVillage 5.
