The Million Dollar Eskimo/Conan Mask?!

The degree of influence that the media has on people’s decisions is a topic that has been debated over time and again. Often, this topic comes about in regards to children, but what about adults? How much of what you hear and see directly effects what you decide to do?

Well to a very small degree I witnessed a great example of this. Thursday, September 27, following my late night ritual I was watching Conan O’Brien. Hilarious as usual, one of his producers stumbled on a few masks on ebay of several late night talk show hosts made by a native Alaskan Indian. There were three masks. They were made in replication of Jay Leno, David Letterman, and, of course, Conan O’Brien. What made this funny was that the first two were of pretty good likeness, but the one of Conan was SO OFF! It was just wrong. Everyone got a good laugh, and bit over.

Being the compulsive looker-upper that I am, I had to see it for myself. So I got on ebay and checked out the merchandise. The creator was asking $1,650 for Leno and Letterman, but only $1,000 for Conan (haha). Then, as I look distracted at other lovely items, my roommate comes in. I decided to show her Conan’s wonderful likeness and share the small story, but BAM, shockingly, the auction was at over five thousand dollars. At this point I am just thinking about how unbelievable it is. As I continue to refresh the page the price just jumped and jumped and, to my amazement, did not cease. By the next day, it was in the millions (approximately sixteen million). I could not believe that this guy’s life was just made by a simple joke. I was just in complete and utter astonishment.

Unfortunately some of the bidders were joking and they were removed from the auction, however the mask is still at approximately $16,000, and that is still a heck of a lot of money. Through all of this, I could not get over the thought that one man’s words can have such an impact. People are now willing to spend so much money on something that they didn’t want a few minutes ago. Think about the other uses of that money. How many amazing charities would have benefited tremendously from that kind of dough? Heck, I could have used money like that. College is rough. It does, however, make me wonder a lot less as to why so many large corporations are willing to spend millions of dollars on endorsement deals. Still, this was on lucky Eskimo! Hope he enjoys it.

Crash and Burn

We all know that people get in some pretty ridiculous car wrecks, but women are notoriously the most entertaining to rewatch. In the following clip the top wrecks by women are featured. The clip is actually called, “The Top 7 Stupidest Woman Car Crashes.” Even though I am female I still think that these are pretty funny.

So number 7 is a dragging fender. Come on, who wouldn’t notice a huge piece of your car just trailing along behind you? This isn’t exactly a car crash, but it definitely has the potential to get out of control.


Number 6 is a classic. Everyone has had that first time when you go to insert your parking garage ticket or whatever it might be, and can’t quite get the car close enough. However, I do think it is ridiculous that she just plowed over the cement pole. Maybe she hit the gas instead of the break? I don’t know about you but I never usually go that fast when I’m trying to hang out the window.


Woman number 5-thinks she can parallel park! Parallel parking is always the one thing people dread on their driving test and for many years after that. That lady obviously had no idea how to do it because when you are at a 45 degree angle and can’t get the rest of your car in you probably shouldn’t park there. And seeing people like her try to park makes me not want to park either because who knows what she could do to your vehicle if she drives like number 6.
Driving after a flood, classic mistake. Everyone knows that if you can’t see the ground below the water you shouldn’t drive through it because cars don’t work too well in water. I don’t know if she just thought she could floor it and get through the 4ft of water but it was about to engulf the whole car so there really was never any hope of her getting through.


Number 3- They probably have enough money to replace it.


Number 2 is definitely deserving of its spot in the lineup. I don’t care how much you trust the guy directing your car you should be able to realize when your car is about to fall into a giant trench. I’m not really sure how you would go about getting that out either.


And the number 1 video is definitely a new take on slow speed crashes. From the looks of the driver it looks like a student driver with the jerkiness but crashing right into the gate is classic. I can honestly say I have never seen anything like it before, especially flipping your car over at that speed.

Well ladies, sorry if any of those have happened to you and if so sorry because we all just got a good laugh out of it! I know that women aren't the only bad drivers, so men watch out because you're next. And I realize these are probably the worst female drivers you will find so don't think I think all women drive like this!

Two days late but still good!

"I personally believe" (get it?) that House M.D got to be one of the best TV show running today. This passed Tuesday was the premier of their new season. And as an obsessed House fan, I have to say that I was just o-k with the first new season episode. It was a clever and entertaining way to bring out the main conflict for the new season, but the situation seemed a little too simple that there might not be many alluring storyline. For all you foreigner to House, start watching the show every Tuesday on FOX at 9PM! The show is about an antisocial extremist doctor who specializes in mystery diagonals with the help of his brilliant medial team of three. That was the last season. On the last season's final episode, House fired some of his team members and some just quited because they couldn't handle his egocentric and narcissistic attitudes. The new season started off with another mysterious ill patient in needing House's help, and House being forced to find a new medical group. After his coworker's threat to sabotage House's loving guitar, House finally gives- in and accepts to look for a new medical group.
It feels like that was the whole storyline for this new season. When I haven't even seen the upcoming ones, I feel as if I already know what's going to happen: House ends up with his same old medical group at the end and together they solve a very crucial case. Even though House is socially challenged, he had developed such strong relationship with those people. If those doctors do go away forever, that would be extremely disappointing and shocking. Those people MUST and WILL stay.
And the sneak peak of the second episode leans a little toward my prediction (House claims that he randomly sees members of his old medical group walking across the hospital. He misses them? I think so).
Stay tune next week for a new episode of House M.D !!!

The case of Celebrity Worshiping Syndrome

A few years back USA Today did a study on the worshiping of celebrities. People are getting so wrapped up in the entertainment hysteria that they forget what is really going on. Celebrities are only celebrities because we made them that way. If not for crazy fans and dedicated movie-goers there would be no stars. A lot of the time a celebrity’s actions are overemphasized. Whether it is good or bad everyone always knows about it. Celebrities are often the topic of conversation for many people. Celebrities are a worldwide language. Everyone everywhere knows who’s dating who and what movie they are going to be in.

All this talk leads to the next problem: gossip. Gossip is a difficult thing to get away from. Everyone, including myself, has shared someone else’s story at one point or another. Whether or not it was an accurate story is another thing. USA Today actually said that 2/3 of our conversations consist of gossip. Wow! That is a lot of talking about nothing. Even though I think that gossiping is wrong I know it is inevitable. Gossiping is really just a way to be socially involved with the people around you. Usually you talk like the group of people that you hang out with, therefore, you will all have similar gossip to share. It doesn’t matter if the news was last week or last year or if you’re 40 or 14, people will always talk.

There will always be the fans that never give up on their stars though. Companies will always make money off the giant posters, t-shirts, and action figures, so why not let it take its course.
But where would we be without celebrities and gossip? You decide.

Parents: new and old

Last week I posted about Pairs Hilton possibly adopting four babies. When I brought up the fact that she was not married some readers spoke out and supported the idea of single parents. While it is true that you do not have to be married or even dating when you have children it does make raising them easier. For celebrities, this is especially important because they are always in the spotlight. So the fact that Paris is not married makes me believe that she would have some complications with raising four babies. Now Nicole Richie really is pregnant, and has a boyfriend. Nicole and Paris where co-stars on the “Simple Life” and have many of the same habits. I do think that together Nicole Richie and Joel Madden can pull off the parent gig. I think that as long as the couple or single parent is in favor of the pregnancy it can work.

It was also in the news this week that Britney Spears was charged with two misdemeanors, possibly sending her to jail for a total of a year. She did not have a valid driver’s license and was involved in a hit and run incident. Now Britney and KFed are divorced but she still has the responsibility of two kids. The singer tried to make a comeback at the VMAs and was kind of off to a new start, however; these unfortunate acts are going to set her back a bit. They will also put a halt to her efforts of gaining full custody of her children any time soon.

So you can see that it does pay off to be responsible parents when you have kids. And whether or not you are married your actions affect the kids the same in the end.

Hey folks, I know I have been dealing around with the more reality shows relating to love, or as of last post controversial shows. But this came to me in a realization of reading up on the latest of the reality TV shows. It’s three words long, The Biggest LOSER. Hmm. Sweet title though the premise of the show is much more meaningful and helpful. This show frustrates me. If you are not familiar with the show it is basically a bunch of obese people trying to lose weight and who ever loses the most weight is the winner. Though just the title itself infuriates me, why would they go around advertising that if you are obese you are a loser. Though I understand the rhetoric behind the title, Oh it’s a very polite message displaying the fact it is who loses the most weight. Bull shit. I feel horrible for the people on this show not are they only in the eyes of the entire nation it perpetuates the fact being obese is not normal by any means. If you are obese you are a loser. I personally am not obese, but for the show to continue to proceed with this message, seems unfair for all those who are obese. Maybe I have read into the title to much but to call someone a loser for being unable to stay fit is the biggest bullshit I have heard. The rant is now over but, I am very proud the contestants get a healthy track but there are so many different ways you can name the show. Fat people get Fit. That would be less obnoxious then THE BIGGEST LOSER!!! Woo. For example, Celebrity Fit Club on VH1 made the show more eventful without making those feel as if they were out of place in the celebrity world and they weren’t helpless just by the title I already feel this people are helpless… the end =)

Children running there own city THATS CRAZY!?!

Well as of late "Kid Nation,” a very controversial reality show if you do not know, has made it on air finally!!! Woo hoo! Anyways why the controversy I suppose you would be asking at this time. Well what happened was when you place a variety of young children between the ages of 9-15 you are going to run into problems hand down. By variety I mean more so 40 kids. Well now for the controversy, there are times when the children could not feed themselves because they did not know how to cook. They say this is when adults should step in. But I doubt reality would allow a child to die on national TV sorry but there goes out the controversy out the window. Though they do say that it should be hands off and they should allow the kids to step up and figure things out for themselves.



Now I can’t but help but wonder to myself… if I was a child would I ever stick up for myself to someone that has 8 years on me? I wouldn’t if you were older I would keep my mouth shut and take what they say. Or the other way around if I was older I wouldn’t take lip from a child that is younger than me. That might just be me or the kids that came to this show are nowhere near normal. We have 11 year olds expressing philosophy trying to harmonize a group of adolescents. I have never seen this kind of action in my life I might be wrong but it always used to be at least I was growing up the older you are the more respect others should give you, because of your experiences. Not saying that this is impossible but seeing as the camera crew and producers, etc. are all around the children it makes them more so ballsy.

Oh no Bret it's winding down...

So as you all may know I have been writing posts about The Rock of Love. Too keep you non-TV watchers updated the parents of the ladies have just left and Bret had to make another crucial elimination... It was between the lovely Jessie, the stripper Heather, and the cynical crazy ass bitch Lacey. Well what do you know; Bret finally realized that Lacey is just really fucked in the head. So needless to say she got eliminated which brings us to the finale. Heather and Jessie are going to stay for one last episode to see which one of them is “worthy” to continue to rock Bret’s world. Well now that has caught you up in this wonderful world of TV. But in all honesty I got to put my two cents in. Bret has made a very good choice by leaving Jessie she’s very humble and down to earth she knows what’s going down. As for Heather, Bret was going to eliminate her about two episodes previous to this finale. But hey what can you do she was extremely stupid to get a tattoo of his name on the back of her neck. That’s going to hurt like a bitch when she realizes she doesn’t want that anymore. I suppose anything for those fifteen minutes of fame. High fives to Heather on bad decisions. Anyways we will see this coming Sunday to see who gets to stay! Stay tuned to VH1 for all the latest about THE ROCK OF LOVE woo!

The hardcore Brityney fan

You all probably have seen the "Leave Britney along" Youtube video. In fact, it got so many hits that it was broadcast on channels such as E! and FOX (he even got a MyspaceTV). But in case you have never seen the video (I highly recommend it, it's hilarious), it is about fanatic Britney fan who sobs and screams through a 2 minutes monologue about leaving Britney alone. Oh yeah, don't be fooled about the fact that the fan is a girl like I did- IT'S A GUY. He never revealed his real name (he is scared of the vicious critics), but he goes by the name Chris Crocker. If the video hasn't creep you out enough already, the guy shot all of his documentary videos in his grandparent's bedroom.
When CNN interviewed Crocker about his intension of the making of his video, he showed up in his black and pink tight shirt with black eyeliner and mascara.
But don't make fun of the guy just yet; he has it tough too. Growing up in a small town in Tennessee hiding the fact that he's gay is no picnic. It all started when he was in kindergarten he brought a Barbie doll for show-and-tell. Crocker's grandparents don't approve of his behavior either. The grandmother saw his videos and was outraged by his 'acting' skills. In one video, Crocker even had to imitate his Christian grandmother by telling the world that she loves his grandson, but in reality, she is ferocious about him. The family has it tough living in their hometown too. Crocker's grandparents cannot even attend church anymore because of this and he feels horrible about it.
So why would fan go this far to defend a pop star?
It's probably that he is just one of those hardcore dying fan who has a shrine of Britney in his bedroom and has a daily worshiping hour, or, what he really want all along is enough attention that gets him a deal with a reality TV show and start his own show, Complaining with Chris Crocker. Go figure.
After rambling about Chris Crocker, I have to admit that he got guts. And in an awkward way, I actually kind of admire him for his action. I really hope this reckless Britney guy will go far in his acting career.

If you ever find yourself bored, watch the rest of his videos. Go knock yourself out.

mydeathspace.com

It's similar to Myspace, but with a dark twist.

This is mydeathspace.com, a networking community just for teenagers who had passed away from various reasons. On the website there provide the readers with a list of teens and their tragic death stories. When you click on their link, you will be given their name, age, location, a short summary regarding their death, and their Myspace link. MyDeathSpace had made this website extremely personal not only for the friends and families of those who passed away, but also for any readers. After reading about the victim's death, any stranger would feel emotional moved just by viewing the victim's Myspace link. This is enough for them to call the deceased a friend. This website was created for those who passed away. It's another way for 21th century kids to express their sorrow and concern by sending electronic farewells and self- memorials. Regardless of what kind of relation they once had with the deceased, they can still send their regards. Even though the victim wouldn't be able to read it, it's the thought that would count.
Mydeathspace is also an eye-opener for most healthy and depressed teens. If someone is thinking about committing suicide, he/she can see the aftermath of their death through the Myspace of those who already deceased. It would give those teens a sense of love and encourage them to overcome their depression. This website is a healthy and positive virtual community.
Not only does this website serves its purpose, but it also promotes a healthy attitude. After reading many entries on Mydeathspace, the common reason that led to teens' death was suicide. But the most common one was high- speed car crash. (I guess that one Allstate commercial was really true.) I believe that kinds would be more proactive in protecting themselves after knowing what's really dangerous from the personal experience from reading other real kids' stories. This is what differentiates the message from public speakers and Mydeathspace.com. Teenagers will find themselves relates more from others like them, rather from a 50-years old baby boomer who's (we, the most teenagers, believe) main purpose is to win more political fame.
Neverthless, there are some people who oppose to my ideology. Alexander Zayas wrote an article, "Do online death dialogues prompt teen to suicide?" for Tampabay.com. He, along with many Doctor psychologists, believes that Mydeathspace.com is an unhealthy and dangerous networking service. Their main argument is that, when a depressed teenager reads about death, they will act towards that direction.
How dumb do they think we are?
This websites do not prompt any sort of suicidal suggestions. The site is a serious collection of those who deceased. There's no where on the site that hints any form of message, "Want to be like me? Go kill yourself." Some kids might still commit suicide, but even doctors with high degree in psychology cannot predict the reason that led to their attempt. Suicide is caused by the progress of an emotional built-up, and is not caused by reading other teenagers' suicidal stories over the internet.
In similarly with postsecret.com, this site is for confused and anxious teen to reveal the hidden side of their world and show concerns.

Are you a Carnivore or an herbivore?

A new commercial featuring Alicia Silverstone was just aired in Texas. She is promoting healthy eating and lifestyles. She was however, nude. Apparently being supermodel thin is a healthy lifestyle. Granted not all actresses and models are like this, but there are a fair amount of them. Did the creator really think that a naked woman would make people want to become vegetarians?

I think it is fine to promote healthy eating and vegetarianism, for that matter. However, I don’t think that using near pornographic pictures on public television is the way to do that. The commercial was showing the best possible results of being a vegetarian. People get the wrong idea when they see these ads because all they see is the pretty women. I know that it is all psychological and the audience will be influenced by what they see, not what they hear.

I can’t fail to mention that the sponsor of this ad is PETA, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. So tell me why Alicia Silverstone is posing for an animal rights commercial? So now the commercial has been taken off the air in Texas because of the nudity. I think that if PETA really wanted to convey their message they should have done so in a more conservative way. Had they shown an innocent looking piglet,

I may have been more inclined to listen to their message. Frankly I was just in awe that PETA let a nude women pose for a vegetarian promotion. Now I’m sure that Alicia’s intentions were good, but clothes would have been nice too.

Disney-Bad to the Bone

So you thought Disney characters were harmless innocent animals right? Wrong! Pluto was caught on tape chasing a young boy around an amusement park because he simply lost his temper. The boy ran through the crowds and around hundreds of people, but that didn’t slow Pluto down. He proceeded to chase the boy until a nearby mother stopped him and pushed him to the ground. Pluto walked away with his hands in the air as if he had been defeated. Now I am sure that he didn’t just come out and start chasing the kid, the kid probably irritated the fuzzy dog.

No matter who initiated the chase it was still ridiculous. The person in the suit is at least 18 and the boy was probably 5. Now let’s think about who was in control of this situation. When you are hired for Disney you have to know you are going to be around kids and should probably always be in a good mood. Pluto was most likely just having a bad day, but he gives Plutos everywhere a bad name.

The sad part about this chase is that it is not the first report of characters gone bad. Everyone remembers when Tigger “hit” the boy while posing for a picture earlier this year. There was also a report of another Tigger touching a girl’s breast. This Tigger was not charged because they claimed his hands were too big to know where they actually were.

A Disney character touching a teenager sounds like a lawsuit setup to me. If Disney did find out this was on purpose I’m sure they would take care of the bad animal before it got to involved. Disney’s reputation is in jeopardy every time a character makes the news. I think that the characters are held accountable for every action and they should be aware of that when they take the job. They are always in the spotlight because what kid doesn't idolize Tigger at some point in their life? And why are the bad ones always animals? What about Cinderella or Jasmine? Even though everyone does have a day of impatience every now and then, it shouldn’t have to make the news.

Babies Babies Babies

Paris Hilton denied rumors that she was going to be adopting four blonde children. Its probably a good thing because Paris can’t even keep a man around. She would rather buy new a new house and expensive clothes than pay for a babysitter, which I’m sure she would have around the clock if she did have kids. She also tells reporters that she would rather have her own kids than adopt. I’m not so sure how Paris would feel about gaining weight and not being a size 0 for nine months. While some stars can pull off being pregnant, Paris is not the one. The news reports would be of her getting a live in nanny or losing one of them while shopping in Louis Vuitton. Having kids would also mean having to put her acting career on hold for a while and she would probably just have to spend all her time at the spa.

It is also thought that Christina Aguilera is pregnant. Thanks to Paris the announcement was made at a night club in front of their friends. Christina has gone from sweet teen singer to pop rock slut and back to motherhood. Hopefully she can maintain her current image long enough to raise a decent child. For every skeptical pregnancy there is a celebrity mother who we are sure will make it. Julia Roberts, Jennifer Garner, Courtney Cox: all great mothers. They have not faced as much, if any, negative comments as mothers like Brittney Spears.

Being the son or daughter of a celebrity must be really nice though. Always getting what you want and not having to worry about how to pay for that new car. Even though the child would probably never see his or her parents at least you would be happy with all your “stuff”.
Then, if you are in fact pregnant, you have to pick a suitable name for your child. Some celebrity choices for names are just beyond me though. Apple, Coco, Suri, or Audio Science? If I was one of those children I would be embarrassed to be called by my name. The parents, no matter how rich, should at least give their child a respectable name. No one wants to get called names on the first day of school!

The Final Hour of the Emmy's-My Comments As I Watch!

Masi Oka is a genius and an even better actor. That's all there is to say about that.

Myspace guy?-Why does he get to present an emmy! This is so freaking wrong. I feel slightly violated. What did he present? I'm so confused about this award. Pods? I heard something about that a while ago and that it was supposed to be something great. But then it was never heard about again and then BAM an emmy. I still dont' know what or why they won. INTERACTIVE TV NETWORK? Is that an award. Whatever. Congats Al Gore, you were almost president. Good thing you weren't because otherwise you couldn't have "reclaimed democracy.'' I wonder who he paid to get that.

"Do you like my dress?"
" Yeah, you should see it from here ;)."
"That reminds me i need milk at the store."
" You just made Charlie Sheen's to do list."
"Honey, you couldn't' even make Senator Craig's list."

I love that kind of dialog.

Outstanding Directing in a Comedy Series-This is a tough category. The guy from Ugly Betty took it. He was against the people from Scrubs, the Office, and a few other toughies. Do you like this show? It would be much more awesome if they didn't show so many reruns.

Outstanding Writing for a Comedy Series- The Office has two different writers up for this one. Its so funny. 30 Rock also has a few. There are some really great writers out there. And the winner is.... Greg Daniels the Office, Witch hunt. That was a great choice and great clips.

Best Reality Show Competition- (I would go anywhere that Wayne Brady went. He is so so hilarious. He is presenting this award.)

Rainn Wilson should host this show. He just busted out Kanye like a champion.

The amazing race? Does anyone watch that show? Top Chef, American Idol, maybe even Project Runway...At least people watch those shows. Oh boy! What will we do with these "Academy" people.

Steven Colbert just said that we were lucky that Al Gore wasn't president because he was a cry baby. HAHA

Lead Actor in a Comedy Series- PLEASE STEVE....NOOO! Ricky Gervais? He didn't even show up! HAHA Jon Stewart was like "since he didn't show up we are going to give this to our friend steve carell HAHA! I love these guys.

Lead Actress in a Drama-How did Sally Field beat Edie Falco and Mariska Hargitay? She was saying something really bad for them to cut her off like that. This was a disappointing award.

They are doing this montage thing and showing old shows and people who have died that worked on popular shows. It is killing me to think that one day I will be old and sitting there and shows like the Sopranos, House, Grey's Anatomy, ER, and other favorities will be on here and I will try to explain it to my children. I'm sure that as I try to explain nothing that I could say would be equivalent to the way that those shows make us feel when we watch them. That is what great television is. It is amazing how some shows make us feel like we are getting a sneak peak into this whole other world. Great writers are the ones that make it so we forget its make believe.

There are ten minutes left and I barely feel like three hours has passed. It has been a great show overall. The skits have been amazing. Hopefully they will be up for me to post soon.

Lead Actress in a Comedy Series: This was a truly deserving winner. America Fererra takes it. She is amazing that she shows girls and women everyone that you can be so fantastic even if you are a size 12. (Or whatever size she really is.)

You would think that if you were promoting your new show you would do sometihbng better

Lead Actor in a Drama- This is such a packed category and I have not been more outraged all night. James Spader from Boston Legal a show that no one really watches just beat Tony Soprano and Dr. House. I am so upset. The shows are better and the actors are better. His speech wasn't even good. He didn't' even thank anyone. I am so angry inside. I want to personally call the other actors and tell them that it was bogus. Who votes for this stuff again? I hope that one of the Sopranos finds out and pulls out a .45 and solves that problem for next year.

Best Comedy Series-30 Rock won. I am disappointed again. So much so, that I don't' want to talk about it. grr.. She said it all when she said that she wanted to thank her "dozens and dozens of viewers." :(

If Sopranos doesn't win best drama I might boycott next year. I am very bitter right now.

Best Drama Series- Heroes-House-Boston Legal-Grey's Anatomy-the Soprano's
YAYYAYAYAYYAYYAYYAYA!! I get to watch next year! I am so happy right now. No show deserved it more. This series has impacted the way our children will see shows. So this is just a truly great award. James Gandolfini and Edie Falco made this so amazing and believable. This is just a great end to a great Emmy Awards show. I thought for a minute that I was really going to regret watching this show. However, I still think that Micheal Imperioli, James Gandolfini, and Edie Falco really deserved their own awards. I hope they know how amazing they really are. They were robbed.

Well thats it. Have a great night!

ps. I still don't understand what that award that Al Gore won was for. hmm....anyone?

Hour Two-My Opinions on the Emmys As I Watch

Steve Carell-How did the Lord Jesus Christ create such a funny human being! His writing and delivery are just genius! Not to mention his cast mates! I just wish that I could bottle them up and release a little bit of funny ever time I feel down! I might be at peace with the world if I could do that!

Best Comedy Series-Went to the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, but should have went to Conan because he is the god of late night television comedy and makes my heart rejoice every night. But Stewart gave a decent speech mentioning Iraq without getting controversial.

Variety Musical or Comedy Special- I didn't see any of them, but good for Tony Bennett! He is having one hell of a night. Two awards and a performance. Go octogenarians. (They actually did the show for his eightieth birthday.) His wife is way to young for him!

Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Miniseries of Movie: They are all fairly unheard of. But it was given to Judy Davis for the Starter Wife, which was the only one I had heard of. But then BAM! She wasn't there! HAHAHA No one knew where she was. Great moments!

A Musically Tribute to the Sopranos?!-Lets take the most masculine show on television and make it feminine it in anyway possible? Lets add male dancers and singers and girls that aren't' sleazy. OKAY!? This is just odd and very un-Sopranos.

-Is it just me or should the commercials for these things be better. You know, like more like the Super bowl or something.

Lead Actress in a Miniseries or Movie-I guess i just don't watch these things, but go Helen. Helen Miren is phenomenal. She deserves every award we can throw at her. That's a classy dress for a classy lady. She said Americans were generous. You don't' here foreigners say that often.

WOW-That was the second time we have seen Ryan Seacrest. I actually forgot he was hosting. SAD

Well that's basically the end of the second hour. It was mostly stuff about miniseries and movies on tv. Which is the stuff that most people don't care about. Including me. I just hope this stuff gets better.

Tidbits from the First Hour of the Emmy's

Jaime Presley -Her acceptance speech made me cry! (Remember: That's not much. I cry when someone wins their showcase on the Price is Right.) But its amazing to see that even winning an Emmy and being a famous actress on a brilliant show is not what gets her emotional. She started crying when she mentioned her child, "the greatest thing that has ever happened to her." It just shows that love is really what matters at the end of the time. Its really not fame or fortune. Whether its between a man and a woman, parent and child, or even owner and pet, it really is love.

-The guy from the Soprano's should have won best supporting actor.

Katherine Heigl-Well after they mispronouced her name.... WHO CARES!? She won. She said "even my mom told me that i didnt' have a chance in hell to win this award." HAHAHAHAHA I love that! Well surprise! Congratulations Katherine. We love you!

Late Night With Conan-WON THE EMMY! I could not have been happier!! He is so f*ing hilarious. I was sweating it hard for them because they were up against the writers of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and the Colbert Report. But man he's funny AND HE SO DESERVED IT.

Tony Bennet and Christina Aguilera- Tony is always a classic and amazing performer, but wow we have seen Christina grow up. She has come so far from where she was when Dirrty was released. Talk about trashy to classy.

Roots-Wow the cast of Roots presented an Emmy. Unbelievable! There were more eyes on them than the winner of the award. (Best Miniseries: Broken Trail-I think the starter wife should have won.) The whole crowd showed so much respect for the Roots people.

Outstanding Directing in a Drama Series-Lost vs Sopranos vs Heroes?? TOUGH! Thank god it went to the Sopranos. It was such an amazing show that will live in television history. It reached so many audiences, but what the directer say at the end of that speech? German?

Sopranos Emmy Count: 2 They got writing in a drama series! GO NEW JERSEY MOBSTERS!

Well thats the end of the hour!

Naked Barely Legal! Disney Stars?!?

You Cast It!

This is by far my favorite idea ever. Let’s have America vote on who will compete for the affection of celebrities. How do we vote? We watch online profiles of really ridiculous people that either a) where near to nothing as clothing, and shake their asses around, thinking to themselves, “Oh wow I’m so sexy they gotta pick me.” Problem is lady… you aren’t that attractive. You know the kind of people that need to stay clothed… and not be naked as much as they should. Not by any means am I discriminating, all I’m saying is that people need to present themselves with their more flattering features. B)are complete whack jobs that we know for sure the person on the show would not want.
*Video quality and sound is poor but will make out for a good laugh*

Or c) just trying to get their 15 minutes of fame. I mean this is just being set up for disappointment sorry Flavor Flav, but America as a whole will probably pick the people which would be least compatible with you. I know I will, it would make for great TV.

Silly Bret what are you getting yourself into?

I don't know how familiar you all are with VH1's Rock of Love, but Bret Michaels from the infamous band Poison, is looking for his love bird. As of late he has eliminated all but 3 women. Jess, Heather, and Lacey. Bret is now deciding to bring their parents to his place in order to meet them. GREAT IDEA BRET! Awesome! Of course the parents would be thrilled to see the man that has been playing their daughters. Yeah Yeah they are getting money if they win the show. By win, they are the last girl standing wanting to "stay" with Bret. But we all know how those TV love flings usually end. Super awesome. They stay together for lets see,a week a month, a couple minutes. Eh? Who knows but... if trends continue Bret will be looking towards Rock of Love 2-8. Good ol' VH1 reality shows. If I Love New York is any proof of that or, lets see Flavor of Love 1 and 2, the trend will be lurking towards that idea.

Yet, I suppose it can't be too bad you get paid to date a bunch of women that you pretend to be interested in since you have the bench mark of eliminating one every week. It might just be me but I dont feel he actually picks the girl he wants rather who keeps the rating. For example Lacey, she's borderline crazy and by borderline I'm pretty sure she is completely fucked in the head. All she does is try to back stab people and this is evident in multiple episodes. Take a peak.


*Disclaimer naked crazy lady running with words on her body*


Though this video does not show the menacing nature of this psycho woman, she is indeed a different kind of crazy. What sparks her to do this is a woman in the house enjoys wearing fur and Lacey is very against this. So she begins to poke at Dallas, the forsaken fur wearer, and continues to egg her on until she hits Lacey. Lacey cackles cynically and makes it through to the next round in the show. I find it extremely odd when the host himself Bret Michaels, says that, “She is the kind of girl you can go to sleep with and be unsure in the morning if she is going to kill you.” Sounds like a winner Bret! Keep up the good work. Though you do provide me with 30 minutes of entertainment on my typically uneventful Sundays, I fear for your life. I know if I said that about a certain somebody I would have eliminated them as soon as possible.

A pop star and college?!

The 30 years- old famous belly dancer Colombian- Lebanese singer, Shakira Isabel Mebarak Ripoll, is going back to school to continue to study of the History of Western Civilization. She is now attending UCLA (University of California, Los Angeles) under the voluntary purpose to "learn."

How did UCLA view her college application?

According to her "prestigious" professor Robert Cleve, he had no idea that she was a Grammy Award- winning singer. He also claimed that she acted just like an ordinary student, nothing flashy hinting that she's famous and should be treated as a royalty.

Today's stars are always off doing outrageous things. Some are out to gain publicity, but some are genuine toward their actions. If Shakira is serious about her study in UCLA then major props for her. But if she did for the publicity (it has been awhile that the media had anything on her), then well, she's not doing a bad job at it either. It's not everyday you see a star going out of their ways just to get educated. That should be the headlines for every magazine and newspaper, "Famous singer strive for school?!" Every school teacher would be ecstatic.

But if Shakira is really serious about her study, then she is my hero. Despite of what's going on with the other troubled stars, this one actually has a brain.

The not so innocent wizard

If you're a big Harry Potter fan, you're probably more updated with what's happening with Daniel Radcliffe than me. But if you're just a normal person with a little acknowledge of the children's book series, Harry Potter, you would still be alert with the news that the naive wizard of Hogwarts is kicking the big screen with a new twist. No long is he wearing black ropes, thick scarfs, with white collar shirt tucked in high black jeans, but he has stripped down to nothing in his new movie, December Boys. The movie is powerful, emotional and dramatic. The only problem was the presence of Daniel Radcliffe.

December Boys is about four orphan boys who end up competing for the same family. In this movie, Daniel plays the main character, Maps. Maps is the oldest of the four, breaks laws, learns to drink and smoke, and flirts around with a local girl who ended up having sexual encounter. If you haven't watched it already, imaging Harry Potter doing all that on the big screen. It's awkward.

The image of Harry Potter has gone down the drain for me (I'm not including the images of him from Equus). Daniel had became an icon for that character. To most people, he IS Harry Potter. How will the people precede him now? He is obviously too x-rated to be seen as the innocent boy wizard and his five second kiss scene with Cho, but because of his many years of the Potter saga, he cannot be taken seriously as a young Hollywood actor. He is stuck.

Is Carey 'Right'?

It is official that Drew Carey will replace Bob Barker on the classic tv show The Price is Right. The show is set to air on October 15. Until then the station will be playing reruns. I think it has been far too long since a new show has aired.

Drew Carey has some huge shoes to fill. Bob Barker is what some consider a hero of sorts. He hosted the show for 35 long years. He charmed his audiences with wit and humor and I’m not sure Carey has the personality to make up for Barker being gone. Carey hosted Whose Line is it Anyway? and The Drew Carey Show. He also just premiered a new game show called The Power of 10. So the real question is: will he have time to make the classic show live up to the standards Bob Barker has set?

OR

I think that Carey will bring something new to the show but I just hope it does not lose the classic Price is Right feel. It will also be interesting to see how the fans react to the new host. It was always entertaining to see contestants run up with their shirts that say things like, ‘I love Bob’ or ‘Today I’m 18’. Will the new shirts say ‘I love Drew’? I guess we just won’t know until the show premiers. And how will Carey end the shows? Bob always said, “Don’t forget to have your pet spayed or neutered.” I will be interested to see if he can pull off the same classic message or if he will bring something new to the show. Its really hard to say what is going to happen at all because the publicity on Carey being the new host has died down since Barker announced his retirement.


I do hope that they keep the games and structure of the show the same though. I think that if the actual logistics were changed the show would lose viewers because it wasn’t the classic show that they remember. For now I guess we will have to wait and see.

Bras.Brawls.Bravos

This year’s Video Music Awards brought a whole new image to comebacks and reunions. The first act of the night was none other than Britney Spears. She was looking well……..different. She wore a black sequined bikini and boots. Her main accessory for the night was her hair. We all know she shaved it off so its still a mystery as to why she actually tried to make it look real. Aside from the fact that she had a whole new image this just adds to the laughs she is going to get.

She divorced K-Fed and checked herself into rehab and thinks she can make a comeback. Well seeing Britney grab a guy’s crotch and seeing her flabby stomach hang out on national television doesn’t exactly scream ‘comeback’ to me. It is definitely not something I want to watch again. It was hard to tell if she really wanted to impress the fans because she twirled onstage like a ballerina while trying not to mess up her lip-synching.

Britney wasn’t the only one with a few mishaps at the VMAs though. Pamela Anderson ran into her two favorite men on the big night. Tommy Lee and Kid Rock decided to hash it out in the middle of the show. The men had to be escorted, no surprise, while Alicia Keys delivered an excellent performance. Supposedly Tommy did apologize to Alicia, for whatever it is worth.
On a good note, Chris Brown rocked the audience with his great voice and killer dance moves. He rocked out to some of Michael Jackson’s old moves, which Chris added a little something extra to, and its probably a good thing he did because not many people are fans of Jackson’s moves.

FooFighters, Fall Out Boy, and Justin Timberlake hosted private parties around the hotel while the big show was going on in the main room. It was a little confusing at first because the show kept jumping to different people and different singers, but I thought the night overall was a success.

I got a great Idea...

Wouldn't it be awesome to find true love in front of millions of viewers on national TV Oh wait it gets even better let me compete with 15 others to win the heart of one person. That would be awesome! This seems to be the common trend in our reality TV realm with Flavor of Love 3 coming out; I love New York 2, Rock of Love. You can't help but wonder why these people feel the need to jump on these shows and prove to the world they can win the rock star, rap star, or random person's love. If I was to be on any one of these shows it’s safe to say I would have to do something similar to what "Pumpkin" did to "New York" during the first season of Flavor of love, but rather to an opponent to the host himself/herself. It never ceases to amaze me the fact that these people will throw their dignity on the line to overcome the 10-15 other contestants on the show.

*Disclaimer there is some and by some, I mean a decent amount of profanity*



In the real world outside reality TV I doubt anyone would have that much drive to fight over a man/woman, as they do on these shows. If a normal person was to figure out that the person they were pursuing had another 15 people lined up and has done the equivalent amount of actions as they have done to you. I doubt you would stay there and take it hoping you will out shine the competition. I know I wouldn’t. but that’s the beauty of the shows, you get to enjoy the stupidity of the contestants and see who actually wins the money and then to see if the celebrity actually stays with their “winner.” Oh the beauty of love shows.

Just One More, Please!

So Mary-Kate doesn’t want her picture taken anymore? She looks pretty happy in this picture!? The long time child start thinks she can just decide when her picture gets taken and when it doesn’t. Well FYI Mary-Kate, people want pictures of you and probably always will. Everyone loved the Olson twins as they grew up on Full House and now the entire country is watching as one of the child stars starts her own new show, “Weeds.” The girls were cute and funny and the wealthiest child stars to date. In my opinion, if you are making enough money to buy a car when you can’t drive then the public has a right to know what you are doing and follow your every move.

She states that she wishes she could just stop being in the spotlight. What I don’t think she realizes is that everyone is watching her because she has been through more ups and downs than you find in the Rocky Mountains. One week she is topping the movie charts, and the next she is on the anorexic list. While I understand her wanting to keep her privacy intact, it is also assumed that when you have been famous for all twenty-one years of your life the paparazzi are going to be interested in what you are doing. It is not worth getting upset about you just have to put on a happy face and tell the world everything is ok.

It is reasonable that she does not want everyone involved in her physical and health issues; however, it is big information when a star has a bigger problem than whether she should wear Gucci or Vera Wang to the Oscars! Don’t get me wrong, its great that the duo is taking a break and the girls can actually act on their own but let’s be honest; when has the public ever not been interested in what the Olson twins were doing?

Oh Owen...

We love Wilson.
He is hilarious. Hence in the same sense, I can relate to Kate Hudson when I heard about his attempt of suicide: "totally shocked." Wilson has brought many laughs to the big Hollywood screen. And out of all the young troubled stars in Hollywood, Wilson is the least one to be suspected of having any physical or emotional wreck; he's got money, laughs, and fame. What's there more to gain? But then again, that is just a hypothesis based through media coverages.
After reading about Wilson's attempt to commit suicide, I was extremely blown away by his stupidity. I wasn't shocked of the fact that he attempted to do it, but I was shocked of the reason why he did it. If the fact that he did all this for a girl, then God bless Kevin Federline for he may never find true love (oh, no). Oh Owen, that's adorable. Now, I'm not being critical of saying how extremely idiotic he was being, but stars like him should know that they have endless opportunities in finding that special somone. Writing and reading (you, the reader) from a typical people perspective, we're truly limited in finding our significant other. And the reason being is that we are restricted (in a way) to meet so much people. Stars like Wilson, they makes about a couple hundreds per day without knowing it. With that much people, chances of he finding another Goldielocks size 0 Kate Hudson is pretty high. And if the media is true on the fact that his attempt was based on the lose of Hudson, then he really should be more mature than what he's doing now.
But this whole 'maturity' thing isn't his fault. Hollywood stars are being treated as royalties and pampered with the greens. The basic idea is that: Everything revolves around them. And most people who lives under that philosophy are weak. But come on, committing suicide for a year's relationship? THINK BROADER.
Regardless of who Owen Wilson really is, I'm still a huge fan of his movies. After watching his films, my day would always be little brighter. We the fan, all hopes that he would continue making hilarious films and move on with his life.
Hail Owen!

Out With the Old and in With the New

After Rosie O'Donnell joined the cast of ‘The View’ people got a new look at what these women were really like. Rosie caused a battle that sent two co-hosts of The View over the edge. Star Jones was not welcomed back by the cast of the show for her tenth season, which caused her to lash out. She told Barbara how she felt about Meredith being replaced by Rosie-not happy! Obviously no one really cared about what she thought or she would stil be on the show.

Now with Rosie and Star both gone it is up to Whoopi Goldberg to give View newcomers a good name. She will be faced with the snoopy press and skeptical fans so she will have to put her best foot forward. Since The View is an all women’s talk show it is difficult to see through those raging hormones and ridiculous girl fights because sometimes because they are simply caught in the heat of the moment. Watching the show in the coming weeks will be a riveting experience because not only is Whoopi new but Sherri Shepherd will be the last addition to this talk show, for now anyway. This group of women definitely keeps their audience entertained. You never know what will come next with a room full of personality and a live television feed anything is possible!
