Will Smith is one of the most successful African American actors (in my opinion), and one of the most successful crossover entertainers. He was extremely successful as a rapper and was able to transition to a successful television star and then a successful movie star. I don’t think any …

One actress that had begun to fascinate me some time ago was the actress Kaley Cuoco who had played the part of Penny on “The Big Bang Theory”. This was because at the time, she seemed to come out of nowhere, in the sense that I didn’t really see …

Christopher Judge is best known for playing the tall, very strong Jaffa on Stargate SG-1. Indeed, that’s where I know him from. Of course, he did do one episode of MacGyver that is a hoot to go back and watch. As I recall, it was one …

Most people probably know Claudia Black from her role opposite Ben Browder in the science fiction show, Farscape. This particular series was a bit too far out for me, though because of reruns, I’ve probably seen all of the episodes. Frankly, I was just never that impressed …

The gorgeous and versatile Kelly Lynch is a great actress. Now I am not talking about the acting abilities of a Meryl Streep type actress, but Kelly Lynch is very, very good for the parts I have seen her cast in. I loved her in Drugstore Cowboy and most …

As a regular on the hit HBO improvisational comedy series Curb Your Enthusiasm, Cheryl Hines plays the long suffering wife of lead character Larry David; a man full of quirks and phobias, a complicated man to live if nothing else.
Hines is brilliant in the role, and even if she’d …

David Reutimann is currently driving the 00 car for Michael Waltrip Racing in NASCAR. He’s been on the scene for a few years now, and I’ve really enjoyed watching him grow as a driver. His teaming with MWR seems logical. He looks like someone who could …

Leslie Charleson is best known for her role as Monica Quartermaine on General Hosptial, which she’s been on for three decades. Before that, she’d done some episodic TV, including a part on Happy Days where she was turning a teenaged Richie Cunningham’s head and a role on Emergency! …

I suppose I should begin by clarifying that this review is for Richard Hatch, the actor, and not Richard Hatch, the survivor. Having been a fan of the actor for years, it was a bit nutty to hear the survivor’s name bandied around so much over the last …

Sometimes all we really know about a performer is what we see of them on stage or in a movie or TV production, and most of our opinions on that person is based so much on the one or two characters we’ve seen them portray. If not for …

I see the Buffalo Bills have fired coach Dick Jauron with 7 games remaining in the season.
The firing isn’t really much of a surprise, though the timing is (I wonder if they wanted to get a head start on finding his replacement and maybe bring in a big name …

The Tennessee Titans took a long time before giving Vince Young an opportunity to start for the team again. And, it looks like that decision is paying off.

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, …

Matthew Wright is a tricky one to explain. The broadcaster and presenter, best known for his morning discussion show “The Wright Stuff”, can come across as a prickly type.
It’s hard to like him from the off, he’s opininated and from the off, that can be hard to swallow.
Still, if …

With all the talk about Brett Favre and his possible chain of heart when it comes to retirement, someone asked me to weigh in. So, I’m going to.

As a Favre fan for as long as I can remember, a …

When Rams receiver Tory Holt was released, I figured there would be some teams interested in signing him. And, so far, it looks like I was right.
I’m not sure he’s going to land a record breaking contract or anything. After all, he’s 32 years old and probably only has …

I was reading just now that Kansas City Chiefs’ running back Larry Johnson has been told to stay home after he made homophobic slurs and trashed his coaching staff on Twitter.

The Philadelphia Eagles are saying running back Brian Westbrook should be able to play against the Dallas Cowboys this weekend. This is good news for the Eagles because they need him. But, I think the team really needs to start looking for a long term replacement.
Westbrook is easily one …

I have first known Mandy Moore in her first music video, Candy. At that time, I did not like her image. I thought she was just too overacting, too flirty, and needs more practice on singing as I was not impressed on the quality of her voice. She was …

I think the St. Louis Rams got some pretty good news this week when receiver Donnie Avery surprised them by an early return from an injury. That’s going to help this team tremendously.
Avery isn’t one of the league’s elite receivers; at least not at this point in his career. …

Kate Winslet is an actress I first noticed in the movie by Peter Jackson called Heavenly Creatures. The story of Heavenly Creatures was a powerful one and Kate did an excellent job in it. I actually didn’t think anything more of her until I saw the feature …

The first thing I have to say is that I think the media at this point in our history is disgusting.
Anna Nicole Smith had many issues. She was a very damaged person and I think it was obvious to the entire world that Anna was in mental anguish a …

Boy, I love a good conspiracy theory. Although I don’t believe in all of them, some of them probably have a grain of truth. I also love anyone who is passionate and not afraid to speak their mind especially when it goes against the accepted, perceived reality.
Alex Jones, who …

Drew Barrymore is one actress that have not succumbed to the pressures of being thin in Hollywood. I truly respect her and especially enjoyed watching 50 first dates so much and could watch it over and over again.
There used to be a time when I kept confusing her with …

One celebrity that I think has been acting awfully strangely within the past year and a half is Tom Cruise. Can we say midlife crisis?! Growing up, I seem to always have remembered the celebrity acting very cordial, calm, collected, and modest in interviews. Now, it …

When quarterback Daunte Culpepper confirmed he turned down a 1-year, $1 million offer from the Green Bay Packers last April to be their back up quarterback, the first thing I said to myself was “there’s a player who desperately needs an agent.”
Culpepper, who represents himself, obviously has lost touch …

There are people in Hollywood that can only find specific movie roles; housewife, police officer, family comedies, etc. Then there are actors like Will Smith who can do pretty much anything asked of him.
If you count his early years as a rap star, Smith has made career jumps from …

First of all, the residents are great. Why you …

Reba McIntyre is such an awesome performer. We had the previlige of seeing her in concert several years ago. Her performance was absolutely outstanding and well worth the money we spent.
She came on stage and was energetic and just super friendly. She took time to actually interact …

The greatest footballer of my time, I think, is the godfather of football, Zinedine Zidane. I really think there was no better footballer in the time of Zinedine Zidane and his achievements bear testimony to my statement.
It came as disappointment for me to learn that Zidane was soon to …
