I have always loved John Wayne. I don’t love all of his movies, but I love his passion and the conviction with which he lived his life. He wasn’t a perfect man, but he was definitely tall in the saddle. He was also a very patriotic …

As I mentioned in a previous review about the young actress Chloe Mortez, there are some actors whose movies I would take a chance with whether or not the plot of the movie sounds like it’s going to be good. Gwyneth Paltrow is one of those, since I only …

A little before his name became synonymous with substance abuse, Charlie Sheen was one of those actors whose movies I actually liked watching. I’d seen him play various roles and I couldn’t help thinking about how talented he was. These days, I mourn the loss of his talent as …

Giovanni Ribisi is one of my absolute favorite actors. With his elfin handsomeness, he evokes a serious vulnerability on camera. His facial expressions completely convey the emotion he’s trying to get across in his films. But what I really love is that despite …

Everyone have hear of Ashley Tisdale. She is a rising Disney star. While her fame was brought by the success of High School Musical where she plays the role of Sharpay, a rich girl that looks down on everyone, she also plays a role in The Suit Life of …

Chris Colfer plays Kurt Hummel on Fox’s show Glee. I never knew who he was until I started watching the show. Then I learned that this was actually the first roll he ever had, officially anyway. He is fresh out of high school, and when I say fresh I …

I was just reading about the Minnesota Vikings and their trade of a 3rd round draft pick to acquire Randy Moss.
On the surface, this move really shouldn’t be overly surprising. After all, the Vikings are desperate for a playmaking receiver until Sidney Rice returns from injury and are only …

Jennifer Love Hewitt rose to popularity when I was a teenager. She was in so many movies I can’t name them all but I remember one of teh big ones was I Know What You Did Last Summer and she was also on Party of Five.
I must say …

The first time I was aware of Fergie even existing was when I saw a music video for the Black Eyed Peas. There she was singing, rapping and generally looking great.
There’s generally not a lot known about Fergie and her personal life. I’m not sure why that …

Born Walter Bruce Willis on March 19, 1955 on a US Army Garrison in West Germany. This great and powerful leading actor has been awarded a double Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series for Moonlighting and Outstanding Guest Actor for a Comedy Series in Friends, a …

Cliff Simon’s acting career seems to be limited to guest star appearances on Stargate SG-1. That’s where I know him from. He plays the character of Ba’al, who ended up being the last, great System Lord and the only one to be removed from his host to …

I could still remember the first time I watched Manny Pacquiao on television in a boxing show, “Blow by Blow” way back ten years ago. He was still this very skinny and ragged looking boxer whose moves really captured my attention. He is very fast …

Some time ago, I wrote the that the Chicago Bears made a mistake trading for quarterback Jay Cutler. And, I think I’m starting to feel I was right about that.
Cutler is an immense talent and has a great arm. But, I don’t think he is smart enough to play …

I would love to get one of these jerseys and feel like I got the skills to hit all those three-pointer shots like Curry. At first, I wasn’t sold on my Lebron James hope of him being the next MJ. But now, I’m on the Golden State Warrior bandwagon, and …

Manny Pacquiao, dubbed today as the pound-for-pound king in boxing, gives every Filipino reason to be proud and hopeful. He came from humble beginnings in General Santos City and got into boxing just to have a means of living to raise his family. He got more than what he …

Last night was the first time in a while that I’ve had a chance to watch Minnesota Vikings quarterback Tavaris Jackson in action.
After watching him, I have to think he is the one guy holding this team back from being a legitimate playoff contender.
In the past, I thought the …

If you don’t know who Beyonce’ is, you must have been hiding behind a rock at least the past year. I don’t know if there is much more that can be said about Beyonce’ that hasn’t been said already but, my opinion of her is NOT the “popular” …

Renée Zellweger was one of those actresses whom I had only come to appreciate later on in my life. Before I had put her in the ranks of someone like Sarah Jessica Parker, who had mostly played characters in romance movies, and I couldn’t understand what people had seen …

The first time I saw Tom Cruise he was a kid with bad teeth, a great smile and a lot of charisma. He was a star.
He started off doing a lot of good movies which made him really popular and some of the old movies when I see …

I’m watching the news regarding Oakland Raiders head coach Tom Cable with great interest. Simply because I knew I would see something like this eventually happen when they decided to hire him as the coach.
Look, it’s pretty bad when the owner hires you and doesn’t know a thing about …

While I mentioned that I have a love for dance music from the nineteen nineties, there was a point in my life that I began to like pop and dance hits and even new wave from the eighties a little bit more. There were a couple of people who …

I was reading a short while ago that the Cincinnati Bengals are likely going to keep Marvin Lewis as their head coach; despite the fact the team had a major collapse this year and finished with just four wins.
At first, I thought this was one of the most bizarre …

Rio Ferdinand, not many players have been transferred from Leeds United to Manchester United over the years but Rio Ferdinand was certainly a big one. He was their record signing and was now going to be Manchester United record signing. Ferdinand had enjoyed a great world cup, being named …

Sometimes you just need quirky to be your best, and quirky is something that actor Peter MacNicol does very well.
My introduction to Peter MacNicol was on Ally McBeal, where he played a lawyer with a lot of weird quirks. I hadn’t known who was before that, but he …

As I write this review, the name of Robert Green is on everyone’s lips at the World Cup, but not for the reasons he would surely have wished them to be. Instead of being able to look back on his competition debut with pride and happiness, Green will surely …

Stephen King is probably one of the most prolific writers (in my opinion), and quite versatile when it comes to writing for various genres; even though he is notorious for writing horror and suspense, he has ventured outside of those genres and with great success.
I first became aware of …

I see the Denver Broncos signed Ty Law; or at least agreed to terms with him considering he still needs to pass a physical.
This is an interesting signing because I’m really not sure how much of an impact the veteran cornerback will have on the team.
I can’t say it’s …

When I first became re-hooked on NASCAR a few years ago, one of the veteran drivers I quickly became aware of was Mark Martin. He was the veteran driver for Roush Racing, and everything I heard was enormously positive. He was a good racer, they said. …

John Cena is a wrestler in the WWE and this guy is just freaking awesome. His music is so cool and so is his entrance because his music pumps me up and when he comes running out and runs to the ring it gets the crowds wild up and …

Jeremy Renner is one of those actors that I have been watching for a very long while, ever since I saw him in something a couple years ago. He’s one of those that I feel has so much talent and should deserve more attention, but sadly doesn’t get as …

I’ve watched Ice Road Truckers from the beginning. The show focuses on the truckers who bravely drive semi-trucks, oftentimes with heavy, wide, and toxic loads across dangerous passes and ice roads. These ice roads are over the ocean and are very perilous. One wrong move, and …

I see the New Orleans Saints have signed Paul Spicer to their squad. I like this move even though it’s not something that is going to make major headlines.
At 33, the defensive lineman isn’t going to be a guy who will give them production for a long time. But, …

“William Shakespeare” is possibly one of the most well known and influential playwrights and poets in the history of mankind. Although it is rumored that he did not write some of the plays he has been given credit for over the centuries, people still seem to love and admire …

Miranda Raison is perhaps best known for her role as spy Jo Portman on BBC hit series Spooks. She plays the role well, granting it a degree of naivity, a wet behind the ears approach that provides a nice anchor for the audience to clue in on the often …

NASCAR race car driver Joe Nemechek isn’t a big favorite of mine because he’s done a few things on the track that have bugged me, including interfering with my favorite driver, Jeff Gordon. As a fan, I never forget. That said, I also feel like the man …

I was reading today that the St. Louis Rams are a team that might pursue a quarterback next year in an effort to replace current starter Marc Bulger. If that is true, I think it is a good example of the injustice players sometimes get at that position when …

I grew up knowing Danny Thomas as an actor primarily. I saw him singing, too, but in my mind, he was an actor, and Marlo Thomas’ dad. Recently, I saw his two of his first movie roles and that got me thinking about him again. The …

Peter Schmeichel. Quite simply the best goalkeeper the world has ever seen. When he arrived from Denmark in the early nineties to sign for Manchester United, the response was Peter who?
However, with his giant like posture, there was soon no mistaking who this guy was as he just filled …

Even though Gerard (pronounced Jared) Butler has been around for some time, and I actually watched a majority of his movies unbeknownst to me, he just showed up on my radar when I watched the movie “300″ for the first time.
At first I didn’t want to watch the movie …

I will admit it, for a while there, I had lost some faith in Packers’ running back Ryan Grant. He had a great rookie season, an OK second season and seemed to have disappeared for a good chunk of this year.
But, once again, he is showing us why the …

I won’t spend my time reviewing Brett Favre today only to trash him. Some fans might do that because they are bitter over what happened between him and the Green Bay Packers. But, I’m not one of those people. I’m saddened to see him leave Green Bay but still …

Maya Karin is a very popular Malaysian actress and she is going to get married soon. This is such good news and much to be talked about because her husband to be is an Italian and residing in UK, I think. He is also a teacher and he …

Lil Wayne is a very famous rapper as you know. But I think his music could be better. He does have some good songs, and he does have commercial appeal. But I still don’t think he is the best ever. I do enjoy his new song Lollipop. But I think …

I admire Amanda Seyfried very much. If you want to know who she is, she acted in Mamma Mia, the latest movie and she is a very sweet, awesome, down to earth and definitely gorgeous actress. I think she can really go far with her sweet demeanor. …

It seems to me that many movie soundtracks today are a compilation of modern day songs resembling the racket untrained teenage musicians make in their parents’ garages. The drums are obnoxiously loud, the electric guitars spoil the potential for harmony, and the voices sound parched. If I’m lucky, the …

When I first heard of Kim Kardashian I knew she was a friend of Paris Hilton. I also knew she was very beautiful, of Armenian descent and had a sex tape with rapper Ray J.
I wasn’t sure what to think at first, the thought she was a fame …

Jeffery Archer is one of my most favourite authors. He’s also one of the best that I’ve read. I simply love his stories. Jeffery Archer’s stories are absolutely brilliant and all are testament to his own genius.
I’ve read a few other authors like Frederick Forsyth, Sidney Sheldon etc. but …

Jackie Earle Haley is a relatively new actor to me, even though he has been acting since the early 70s. I caught a glimpse of him in the movie “Watchman”, and was pretty pleased with his acting skills. The character he played was Rorschach who was a bad boy …

This upcoming weekend, Cowboy’s quarterback Tony Romo is going to once again be playing in a big game; this time it’s against the Philadelphia Eagles in an effort to win the NFC East Division.
However, even though he is somehow considered a big time NFL quarterback, I find myself unconvinced …
