Sorry for not writing in nearly two weeks! It's been a crazy couple of weeks. On Monday March 16th Lauren and I saw Britney Spears in concert and it was AMAZING! No lie, no matter what you think of Britney she was incredible. While it was apparent that she was lip syncing it didn't matter because when it comes to pop stars like Britney (Janet and Madonna among them) it doesn't matter how they sing, it matters how good the show is itself and it was incredible. Totally worth every penny spent.
Speaking of Britney, she reportedly was offered up to 3 million to write her autobiography, but turned down the offers for more money. I'm not surprised but I would love for her to release an autobiography because if she is honest about her life it would be a fascinating portrait of an American icon.
In other celebrity news, we have to talk about two sad passings. Jane Goody died of cancer last week at the age of 27. She was diagnosed with cancer while appearing on the Indian version of "Big Brother" back in the summer of 2008. Her cancer was pretty advanced and she passed away at home surrounded by her loved ones. While she was in the hospital she recieved a call from one of her idols Mr. Michael Jackson, he was in London announcing his "This Is It" concerts at the O2 Arena.
The other passing is equally tragic, Natasha Richardson died last week after suffering head trauma while skiing in Montreal. She reportedly was not wearing a helmet and suffered internal bleeding which progressed to causing her to be brain dead. She is survived by her mother, the legendary actress Vanessa Redgrave, husband Liam Neilsen, two sons, and her sister Joely Richardson who appears in the FX show "Nip/Tuck." She rose to prominence in the biopic "Patty Hearst" and won a Tony in 1998 for playing Sally Bowles in the revival of "Cabaret." She was also nominated for a Tony for her work in the Broadway play "Closer." Julia Roberts played her character in the film adaption.
So, Portia de Rossi has a new show on ABC called "Better Off Ted" and it is HILARIOUS. I don't know if it will get a second season but I suggest you check it out because it is a great satirical comedy about corporate America. I hope that de Rossi gets projects from this because she is really underrated as an actress and I think she has the chops to be a huge star, beyond being Ellen DeGenereses wife.
Zack Efron has pulled out of the upcoming film production of "Footloose." The film whcih made Kevin Bacon a household name was made as a musical which is the basis of the upcoming film and he has withdrawn because he wants to be taken seriously as an actor and no longer wants to do musicals. In a way it makes sense but I think it is stupid because he got his start in "High School Musical" but still needs to prove his chops as a lead in a film. While I probably wouldn't have seen "Footloose" he could have shot himself in the foot a bit by dropping out. We'll see how his box office potential stands with the release of his upcoming film "17 Again" with Matthew Perry.
Finally, Drew Barrymore and Jessica Lange are appearing in an HBO Film called "Grey Gardens" which is a biopic centered around the aunt and niece of Jackie O. There was a documentary in 1976 called "Grey Gardens" which has become a cult classic, and the film looks SO GOOD. I like Drew Barrymore, I think she is a legitimate actress and I am anxious to see the film. If it is as good as the trailer suggests I see an Emmy nomination in Drew's future.
With my school's musical production of "Guys and Dolls" a week away I won't be able to post very much but I will do my very best!

George Clooney Returns To E.R.
A clip from the upcoming, and highly anticipated final episode of E.R. in which George Clooney, who became a star due to his work on the show, returns.
Thursday, March 12, 2009
Ashlee, let it go. You're never going to gain credibility back as a singer, and I really wish she wouldn't try and act. Wow, TV is all about reviving old series, huh? The 90s were a great time, but maybe we should let them be. I'm anxious to see the new Melrose Place, the new 90210 is really good, with the same bitchiness and bite of the original. Plus Shannen Doherty and Jennie Garth, always good. And Tori Spelling made some appearances. No comment on that one.
So, very happy news Mandy Moore has married Ryan Adams in a hush hush ceremony in Georgia. Exciting for them! Congrats. Kelly Clarkson and Kanye performed last night on American Idol and brought down the house. The sent home Jasmine and Jorge last night after the all Michael Jackson performance night. What'd you think of that Franklin? I love it. Kelly recently said she had no desire to have kids, that her job was too selfish and it has been swirling around in the media ever since. I say, back off her. She was being honest, and if she doesn't want kids it really isn't any of our business.
Cleo, the 3-D Rock musical I've been anticipating for almost a year is now in 'pre-production' accoring to IMDB.com. Stephen Soderbergh is signed on to direct, and it of course stars the one and only Catherine Zeta-Jones as Cleo, and they're reportedly waiting on Hugh Jackman to sign on. Woo.
In sad news, Bristol Palin and her baby's daddy, Levi Johnson have called it quits. The couple apparently still wants to raise thier child together but have no plans to continue to date.
If there is any hope in Joaquin Pheonix coming back to earth, this story might dash that. He was playing a Miami club the other night (his new hip hop act) and jumped into the crowd to confront a heckler. Casey Affleck, Joaquin's brother in law and BFF filmed the whole thing. WHY isn't Casey shaking Joaquin by the shoulders?! I know they're both artsy...but come on.
Going along with Rihanna & Chris Brown saga, Rosie O'Donnell and Robyn Givens have both issued warnings to her, more or less saying to leave him. This is of course after Oprah's very heart-felt, very public plea to Rihanna. So, obviously we think she should go, but do you think her staying with him will hurt her career?

I agree with Meghan McCain and she is indeed very likable and she was actually a good influnece for the McCain campaign. But what you also need to know if that McCain only registered as Republican to support her father who was running so she doesn't share many values that other GOP minded people have.
So, Oprah is doing a special on domestic violence which will air on Thursday and I will definitely watch it and report on it.
Also in celebrity news Ashlee Simpson is joining the cast of The CW's new version of Melrose Place Simpson previously acted for two seasons on 7th Heaven but left the series to focus on her "music career." As of now I am keeping an open mind and an open heart towards it, I'll judge when I see it.
"Dancing With the Stars" premiered last night to the highest rated episode ever, with 22.5 million people watching. We'll see if the viewers stick around but I feel that this season is definitely buzzworthy with Nancy O'Dell and Jewel being forced to withdraw due injuries while Holly Madison (who people really like from "The Girls Next Door") and the jilted first choice from "The Bachelor" taking their place. Lil' Kim who is a contestant on the show dedicated her first dance to the women at the prison where she served 10 months for perjury. I say good for her and wish her luck on the show.
According to some published reports 20th Century Fox is hoping to revamp "The Fantastic Four" after the success of "Iron Man" and "The Dark Knight" by giving it more relevance in the modern world. This newer, gritier true-to-life reinterpretation also means a new cast, which would leave Jessica Alba without the ability to reprise her role.
Kelly Clarksons new album "All I Ever Wanted" was released today and as a Kelly Clarkson fan in "American Idol" I downloaded it off of iTunes this morning. Since "My Life Would Suck Without You" is such a great song I was excited for the album in its entirety and I WAS NOT DISAPPOINTED! This is her best album yet and my second best album to be released in the last 12 months (Circus is obviously first). Every song is sheer perfection and every song has a different flavor taking Clarkson in a slightly different direction musically. Literally, every song could be a single and when she tours I am TOTALLY going to try and go because this album has restored my absolute love of her! Great job Kelly and I know it is going to be one of your most successful albums, if not THE most successful of the four albums.
So LK what do you think?

Jade Goody got quite a scare when an intruder broke into her hospital with a hammer. some crazy woman broke into London's Royal Marsden Hospital with a hammer. What is wrong with people?! I really can't decide what I think about the whole Goody thing. I think if its what she wants to do--then it's what she wants to do. She's only "exploiting" herself, if you want to use that word and she's not doing any harm; she's making money for her sons.
Julia Roberts and Clive Owen are starring in "Duplicity" this month. I love Julia--I mean how can you not? And since the kids she's joined the all star mommy league and stopped making so many films, (sad but understandable); so I am excited to see her in this semi-sexy role. Clive and her were of course in "Closer" together, which had Julia saying dirty, dirty things. Much like Kate Winslet in "Romance and Ciggerettes", but for whatever reason, maybe because everyone has seen her naked 6 million times, it doesn't feel as unnatural and weird when Kate does it. haha! In other movie news, as expected The Watchmen owned the box office this weekend, despite its 2 hour and 45 minute runtime. Comic fans are split on the movie, but it's rated as fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. I wanna see this movie; and it's adding to me growing ever so impatient for a Wonder Woman flick! come on, Joss! "Sunshine Cleaning" opens this weekend with Emily Blunt and Amy Adams and many of the people from "Little Miss Sunshine." I can't wait for this movie. It looks like it has all the elements of the original--hilariously funny moments, parts that will make your eyes tear. I love Emily and Amy and though I'd have to see it to make an official call...this movie has Oscar written all over it. Go Amy!
Dancing with the stars premeires tonight with its ever changing cast. Jewel and Nancy O'Dell stepped out of course, leading Holly Madison and Bachelor alum Melissa to join the cast. In other TV news, Frank, have you seen "Dollhouse?" It's Buffy creator Joss Whedon's new show staring Eliza Dushko. She plays a girl who is part of a secret agency who erases its agent's minds and injects their heads with different memories, creating a new person, essentially. They make her into a wife for a crazed husband, an agent for a man who wants to get his daughter back from kidnappers. It's awesome, and she is fantastic as Echo, who when she's not playing a role, has the mind of a child, clear thoughts. It's such a good show--Joss Whedon is a genius.

From what I have heard Rihanna is definitely going to testifying against Brown, and she has been granted the ability to record all communication she has with Brown. It is freaky that you mentioned Oprah because I was going to write about it. As Oprah said, "Love isn't supposed to hurt."
About The Bachelor, I can't help but feel that it was staged because the girl who was rejected at the Reunion show is going to be the new Bachelorette and for him to do that seems a bit to bizarre, so maybe all three of them were in on it. I was watching Ellen and she had an interesting take on it: we live in a country where this happens on television- straight people proposing and then pulling this shit, and people are worried about granting the right to marry to gay because because it will destroy the sanctity of marriage?!?! Makes no sense whatsoever for that to be real.
President Obama has been getting a lot of flack for the state of the ecomony and it is really uncalled for. First off he was not the president when the economy went into a tailspin. Also he has only been present for what...two months. You cannot expect miracles or change overnight so people need to stop being so judgemental and wait to see if Obama can start fixing what is wrong with the shape of our economy. We need to have taxes, and cutting taxes in no way helps the economy. The economist William Keynes stated that government spending needs to go up when consumer spending and business spending go down, and there need to be taxes to do it. Also, we can't do tax cuts for the wealthy, Warren Buffet (who is the richest man in the country) was on Charlie Rose right after the election ahd he said that his secretary has a higher percentage of her taxes taken out of her income than him, IT MAKES NO SENSE!
Maybe now that Dakota Fanning is in the "Twilight" sequel I'll actually watch it, lol.
I am so excited to see the trailer for "Nine." Not just because of the stars who are in it but also because I love Rob Marshalls films, "Chicago" and "Memoirs of a Geisha" are excellent and he is a fantastic director.
So, "The Watchmen" debuted big at the box office this weekend making 55 million in the first weekend, which I expected. I've been hearing mixed things about it but considering it is only coming out less than a year from "The Dark Knight" any superhero themed film is going to pale in comparison. Also "The Reader" is doing very good and steady business since Kate won her Oscar, it still hasn't broken the top ten but has matched it's production budget in the United States and has outgrossed her other film "Revolutionary Road" domestically. They are both doing very well in terms of international box office, "Revolutionary Road" has made 70.8 million dollars, and has grossed more outside of the US than in it, and "The Reader" has made 50 million internationally. "Revolutionary Road" was released in foreign countries sooner than "The Reader" but they are both doing very well and I cannot wait to get them on DVD.

Hi Friends, sorry for the lull in posting. Entertainment news has been kinda slow this week, due to all of the buzz about the Bachelor and Chris Brown. Two guys acting like assholes and getting away with it. great. I hope Rihanna testifies, her lawyer keeps saying she will; if she doesn't, there's really no case. It just sets a precedent for their relationship in my opinion. He can hit her and she'll stay, so what can't he do? Also, since Rihanna is famous, there is the added pressure of setting a good example, which to me, she's not, but I guess that is something really personal and its tough for us, as the audience of the media, to make a judgement call. Oprah had a personal message for the "Disturbia" singer, saying "If a man hits you, he will hit you again." God Save The Queen.
Some other quick headlines. Melissa, the girl Jason left at the reunion, is going to be on Dancing With The Stars. She's rumored to be replacing Nancy O'Dell. All of America is already on her side, I say good for her!
Sarah Silverman and Jimmy Kimmel have broken up again; Jimmy Fallon of course took over Late Night and in the fall Conan will be the new host of The Tonight Show. Conan is definitely my favorite late night host, but I will miss Jay Leno, it's just such an iconic thing. I look forward to Conan's hilarious antics, and I have to say Jimmy Fallon is doing a much better job than I expected. Dakota Fanning has officially signed on for the Twilight sequel, "New Moon. And sadly, Jane Goody's condition is worsening. She just had herself and her children baptized, as the cancer has spread to her brain. In happier news, Vince Vaughan is engaged, adding to the line of men who found happiness after Jen. I wonder if she'll get a ring from John soon. Frieda Pinto has signed on as Estee Lauder's new spokeswoman, proving she is here to stay. Other actress who have cosmetic endorsement deals include Elizabeth Hurley, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Nicole Kidman. Frieda is jumping right into the glamour all star game. Speaking of CZJ, the Cleo musical seems quite far off, since rumors of her playing Lana Turner and Slavador Dali's wife are now even more likely to be true; as she listed in the cast for both projects on IMDB.com. Personally, I think she could play Lana Turner. Throw blonde wig on her, but she can act and she's naturally glamourous. There is some debate over the issue though; what do you think? If the Dali project goes through, he will reunite her with Zorro, as Antonio Banderas is cast as the artist himself.
So, Frank, you'll like this. I am anticipating the release of Nine, Rob Marshall's film interpretation, and it stars none other than you girl, Nicole Kidman, as well as Penelope Cruz, Marion Cotillard, Dame Judi Dench, Daniel Day Lewis..it's a fantasitc cast. Honestly, I wasn't a huge fan of Moulin Rouge at all, but I think Nicole was good, so I am anxious to see her in another musical.
That's all I got. Plus--eight days til the circus is in town!

So Chris Brown was charged today with two felony charges: assault by means to cause great physical harm and also with making criminal threats. If he is found guilty on the criminal threats charge along he could face nine years in prison. Also, Rihannas family has reportedly been unable to contact her since she met up with Chris Brown. The full report of what happened that night as also been released and here it is:
After Rihanna read a text message on Brown's phone from a woman, he tried to force Rihanna out of the car, but couldn't because she was wearing her seatbelt.
Brown then allegedly slammed Rihanna's head against her window, and when Rihanna turned to face him, he punched her.
The notes said blood spattered on Rihanna's clothing and the interior of the Lamborghini.
Rihanna also called her assistant, according to FOX 11, leaving a message saying, "I am on my way home. Make sure the cops are there when I get there."
Brown then reportedly replied, "You just did the stupidest thing ever. I'm going to kill you," and proceeded to punch and bite Rihanna. He allegedly put her in a headlock so long that she almost lost consciousness.
WHY IS SHE STILL WITH HIM!?!?!?!?!?
Well, in other news, I understand what you feel about the Britney set list (did you realize that "Gimme More" is completely absent from it as well) but I think that this tour represents the NEW Britney who has literally been to hell and back and the songs from "Blackout" represent that time, just as "In the Zone" represents her beginning to slip into that place just a little and "Circus" being her ressurection, so it is natural that those are the songs on the setlist. All in all I am just excited to see her on stage and I don't even care that she lipsyncs, I'll be in the same arena as BRITNEY FUCKING SPEARS! Haha.
Also, a friend of ours from back home read our blog and IMed this to me concerning "The Bachelor" finale:
Hey so I'm not able to comment on your blog for some reason but I read in star that the bachelor ending was fixed he wanted molly all along but the producers didn't want a 9 week show of him falling in love with molly so they made him pick melissa and the live show was actually taped a few days after the finale because he wanted to end that relationship quickly but they apparently asked melissa to be the next bachelorette she was really heartbroken so that's their compensation lol
Thank you good friend for your contribution we really appriciate it!!!!
I don't watch "The Bachelor" and I understand all the hubbub but I mean I think that if it wasn't staged it was a gift from the reality gods because more people are talking about the show than actually watched the show, they are focusing on this incident and the girl who got rejected is the new "Bachelorette" and since there is so much attention rating will probably be good for that show as well. But yesterday one of the producers of the show was on Ellen DeGeneres and said that it was all the guys decision and the producers had nothing to do with it, I think they pushed for him to do it....in all and total honesty.

Britney in Boston is fast approaching. I have to say--I'm not thrilled with the setlist. I mean I'm sure it will be an amazing show and destroy my expectaitons, but I wish there was more old school Brit on the list. Still, I'm more than excited for the show! She's going to be great.
Ok, so The Bachelor finale was last night. Jason, quite possibly (up untill last night anyway) the most likeable Bachelor in history, made a total dick move. He purposed to Melissa in the final episode, but, 6 months later at the LIVE reunion last night, he told her couldn't be with her, he had feelings for Molly. The runner-up. This from the loveable single guy who purposed to Deanna last year and looked like a jackass, and then he does to a girl. Producers are denying any involvement in the show's outcome but it really seems staged. I don't know...what do you think, Frank? Are these shows fake? Where's the REALITY in reality tv? I guess that's why we have Jane Goody. I also hope she does Larry King and Oprah soon. I think she's got a lot to say, and a lot of people want to hear. It's very controversial, what she's doing...which always makes a good story.
I agree about Rihanna and Chris. I wish she wouldn't take him back. And I'm unbelievably excited for the possible Cleopatra musical! What a subject! What a potential cast! Even if they don't do this, I'd like to see Catherine and Hugh do a movie together. A musical, obviously.
So, I know Rachael Ray can be a bit (really) annoying, but recently, she's come under fire for some sexy pictures she did in FHM is 2003. Ok, first of all, 2003 was six years ago--so who cares? Also, let her flaunt it! The pictures weren't incredibly raunchy; they were in FHM so, obviously it was like naughty cook, but she had clothes on, and really they were kind of almsot wholesome. Also---who cares?! I hate when celebs come under fire for doing spreads in magazines like this, its their business, and all of the people bitching about it have clearly seen it. If you don't like it, don't google it. Duh.
In other news, Emma Roberts, Julia's niece apparently said that Nick Jonas was "making the rounds around Hollywood." Little Nick is a player, huh? You're better off with out him, Emma.

The Circus Tour
Here is a picture I got off of Britneyspears.com taken from New Orleans, the kick off show of her Circus Tour.
I'M EXCITED
The conclusion looks pretty incredible, a curtain of sparks! From all accounts the show was incredible! There were other pictures, but for some reason they wouldn't load properly so I just went with the final shot, as to not give too much away, but if you want to see more pictures of the show you can go to her website, as mentioned earlier. Also, I saw a video about her costumes and she is at one point wearing a metal corset that was taken from a cast of her body so that it would be a perfect fit....WOW

I have a confessiion: when Hanson was big I didn't even notice. I don't know where my head was but we didn't have cable and I just didn't know who they were until like a year after "MMMBop." I do think that the Jonas Brothers are overrated, I don't like their stuff, and also they should not have been nominated for "Best New Artist" at the Grammy Awards because it was not their first album!
I would be very excited to see Catherine Zeta-Jones and Hugh Jackman in a film together as Antony and Cleopatra, that would be HOT! With the Academy Awards I am officially a big fan of Hugh and I think that he did a great job, so I look forward to that film if it gets made. Speaking of movies with him, "Australia" is out today on DVD, and even though it got split reviews, I say rent it and judge it for yourself.
So interesting news, a recent study shows that Utah, the land of the Mormons, is the number one state in terms of online porn consumption....interesting.
I'm disappointed in Rihanna going back to Chris Brown, because in all cases of domestic violence many women stay with their men because they feel as if it will only be one time, but what if he hits her again. I understand if she likes him and will have a hard time tearing herself away but I feel like she should, for her sake and the sake of millions of impressionable girls.
So Jane Goody, the reality tv star who has terminal cancer is reportedly being offered huge money to do interviews with Larry King AND Oprah via satellite before she dies. The cancer has spread to her brain so she only has weeks to live, so if she is going to do that, she should do it soon. I would actually really like to see her be interviewed because I think it will inspire many people.

Of course I'm excited for the Brit concert! The setlist is out, its ready to go! I can not wait to see her! Exciting!
Well, Frank, I think the Jo Bros are severely overrated. I wasn't impressed with their performance at The Grammys. They didn't even really know the words to Stevie Wonder's songs. I personally don't get all the buzz, but they're part of the Disney machine and I am clearly not the target audience. One question that has been raised, is the comparison to Hanson. If you remember the craze after MMMBop, it was different than the Jonas Brothers (no 3-D movie), but they were still huge. So, are they the same?
Rihanna with Chris Brown. I can't say I'm thrilled and I don't think she's setting a great example, but you can't really pass judgement on the situation. I wonder if this will impact her career as severely as I think it it will impact his. I, for one, will definitely not be buying any Chris Brown albums anytime soon.
So, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Hugh Jackman are rumored to be in talks to do a new musical about the love affair between Cleopatra and Marc Antony. I really hope this project goes through. Hugh is adorable and I can't think of who would make a better Cleo than Catherine. Stephen Soderberg is rumored to be directing. Whadya think Frank, could you see Velma Kelly dancing in front of the pyramids?

I'm really excited. Also Britney is the new face of Candies.
So, in other news, The Jonas Brothers 3D concert film is a box office disappointment taking in only 12.5 million in the opening weekend, which is much less than the concert film Miley Cyrus released a year ago. I'm not that surprised because of the economy and also because even though the Jonas Brothers have a huge following, it isn't on the same level as Miley Cyrus because she also has the whole Hannah Montana thing going on.
So, LK what do you think?
