I am looking forward to this movie!! This is Rob Marshall’s second musical, and the cast alone makes this film worth seeing. The all-star cast consists of Daniel Day-Lewis, Penelope Cruz, Judi Dench, Fergie, Kate Hudson, Nicole Kidman, and Sophia Loren. Nine opens Christmas Day nationwide.

Lady Gaga- “The Fame Monster” Review

 

As promised, I am reviewing Lady Gaga’s new EP, “The Fame Monster”.  After her stunning debut album, “The Fame”, Lady Gaga set the bar high for this release, and I can now say that the bar even higher with ” The Fame Monster”.

My Review of Adam Lambert’s Performance on the American Music Awards

Ok, the big talk today is Adam Lambert’s performance on the American Music Awards last night.  Reviews vary from daring to inappropriate and raunchy. 

Lady Gaga’s American Music Awards performance

Lady Gaga’s performance on the American Music Awards last night was amazing.  She performed her hit, “Bad Romance” and “Speechless”.   It was a shame that she didn’t win any awards because she deserves an award after that spectactular act. Coming up in my next blog entry, my review on Lady Gaga’s new EP “The Fame Monster”.

Lady Gaga’s new video “Bad Romance”

This video is art! Even though the video is bizzare, there is a very artistic flair to it. What is your opinion?  I honestly think this is Lady Gaga’s best song and video yet!!

Anger Over Maine Voters’ Decision to Ban Same-Sex Marriage

Ok, normally I would not post about politics or political issues on this blog, but I feel very strongly on this issue and need to get some stuff off my chest.  As most of you may know, yesterday in Maine, voters were asked to cast their vote for or against same-sex marriage.  Sadly, the slight majority voted against same-sex marriage making the total number of states to ban same-sex marriage by “popular” vote at 31.  Knowing this number angers me to the core.  In my opinion, rights of a minority group should not be decided by the majority.  This has proven through the Emancipation Proclamation, the women’s voting rights movement, the civil rights of 1968, Loving v. Virginia, and Roe v. Wade.  All of these were decided by the President, Congress, or the Supreme Court.  This is how gay rights issues should be handled, and not by popular vote.  

Now that I have expressed my anger opinion over the issue of same-sex marriage, I will step off my soapbox, and get back to talking about pop culture.

Melrose Place Weekly Dish #3- Amanda Returns

Ladies and gentlemen, the bitch is back!! After much waiting and anticipating, Heather Locklear returns to the role of Amanda Woodward on the new Melrose Place. Amanda will become Ella’s boss at WPK. Heather’s first episode is November 17.

My New Favorite Song- “Fireflies” by Owl City

This song has to be my new favorite song. The whole feel behind this song is ethereal. The video is amazing!! Owl City is a music project that has only one member, Adam Young. With every show sold out in the U.S. tour, it is apparent to see that Owl City has come into its own.

My Review of new Fall TV shows

Ok, now that the fall season of television has started, I will give my review on the new shows that I have watched.

Melrose Place

Despite the negative reviews that MP 2.0 has received, I am loving the new show. 

Is the new “Fame” movie relevant in today’s society?

Over the weekend I watched the movie “Fame” (not the remake coming out in theaters but the original 1980 film). After watching this masterpiece, I found myself wondering why a remake was really necessary.   Back in the eighties, becoming famous was something that seemed impossible, but in today’s world of YouTube, Twitter, Facebook and MySpace, anyone with a gimmick or talent can become famous or infamous, if you will, with the click of a mouse. If that weren’t enough to try to achieve fame, there are also several reality shows to choose from.
