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.
