This post brought to you by Monte Carlo. All opinions are 100% mine.

If you read my blog on any sort of regular basis you know I have a degree in French, and am what some would say borderline obsessed with French culture, music, language, etc. It is a passion of mine. So, anytime a movie comes out that involves Paris, someone French, or is even filmed on the French Riviera – I dash to see it so that I can soak up just a bit more culture (and whine that I’m ready to go back, etc.)

Social Spark contacted me last week and asked if I was interested in writing about the movie Monte Carlo. For me, this was a home run, no-brainer fit for me – here is why:

1. I’m obsessed with France, the French, etc. Yes, I know the Principality of Monaco (where Monte Carlo is located) is technically it’s own country and not a part of France, but it counts for me. If you’ve ever been there – it feels like you’re still in France. I love it.

2. I’m equally obsessed with Gossip Girl. This movie co-stars not only Leighton Meester but also season 4’s resident bad girl Katie Cassidy. Throw Selena Gomez into the mix and I can’t get in the theater fast enough.

3. It’s a princess-type story. I have a Princess Complex. This is also not new news to you.

Then, as part of my research for this post I watched the trailer and fell in love with the movie. Actually, I was bummed that this post didn’t include a special ticket to catch a sneak peek of the movie. I’m ready to see it already, darnit!

If you don’t believe me – just check out the trailer. Then grab your daughters and head to the nearest theater to check it out starting tomorrow! You can buy tickets early on Fandango starting on 6/29 – so save yourself a wait at the theater!

Oh, and don’t forget to head over to Facebook and “like” the official Monte Carlo page!

Tell me, will you see Monte Carlo?
