I was so not into Taraji Henson when I first saw her on screen. The movie was “Baby Boy”—another one of those “Boyz N da Hood” type films wherein the young ‘brother’ is trying to make his way in the world despite the ghetto surroundings of his daily …

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 …

Michelle Moran is the author of the novels Nefertiti, The Heretic Queen and Cleopatra’s Daughter.
Her novels are very popular and are historical fiction novels.
The novels I read were amazing and so I got the urge to look up Michelle Moran online.
Firstly she has her own blog which I was …

In my experience of this soccer player over the past six or so years I have seen him play, he does not possess the same hunger as he had when he started out and it has affected his game very much.
In terms of potential, I think Ronaldo has what …

So, it sounds like Dan Reeves is trying to return to the NFL after being gone for a few years. It’s definitely an interesting concept for some team looking for veteran advice. But, I would be cautious about what capacity I would bring him in at.
When Reeves was fired …

This local sexy crooner is getting saucier. The first time I was looking at her singing in a contest, I really dislike her voice and I didn’t even vote for her talent. But lately, there had been a release on her album, and I have a change of …

Laura Ingalls Wilder was an American author who wrote the Little House books. The Little House books begin when Laura was a child and follow her through her life as a young adult. Laura Ingalls was born in Wisconsin and grew up in the Piney Woods with her mother, …

The New England Patriots recently cut linebacker Adalius Thomas and, right away, some media outlets start trying to convince us that he is a perfect fit for the Green Bay Packers.
Please stop. I don’t know why you seem to think he would be a perfect fit for them. But, …

I first had a glimpse of Dennis Trillo’s handsome face in a tv commercial. I then thought he really is so cute. Until one time gma7 included him in a drama show. And gosh!. he is so good for a new comer. He acts as if he’s been in …

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 …

When the Minnesota Vikings signed Brett Favre to be their starting quarterback this year, a lot of people argued they were the team to beat in the NFC North. I disagree.
Perhaps back in 1999 that might have been the case. But, I have a hard time believing a soon-to-be …

I find Brenda MacIntyre, a native of Canada, to be an amazing woman. I thoroughly enjoy her music and admire her work as an energy healer. I first heard of Brenda by searching for Native American music for my MySpace profile. I listened to the sample …

Angela Missoni is a very popular Italian designer in my eyes. She is a very talented and beautiful lady who has a passion for fashion since young. I have read about her fashion shows from countless magazines and certainly admire her line of fashion. The clothes she …

I have had the opportunity to hear Justin Timberlake’s pipes on quite a few songs. The young man can definitely sing. He sings better than many other “blue-eyed” soul musicians. But now that the lines between music and acting are beginning to blur, we are …

The last I saw of Packers running back Brandon Jackson was late last season when he was getting limited carries as a back up; following the emergence of Ryan Grant. Even though Jackson didn’t do enough to hold his own as a starter, giving Grant the opportunity, he did …

I love the Osmonds, but my favorite Osmond has always been Donny. Donny Osmond is so incredibly talented. He plays a horde of instruments, has a magical singing voice, writes touching music, and he knows how to market himself and his musical business.
Times haven’t always been pleasant …

Even if I don’t agree with someone’s political views, I am wiling to at least listen to them and even concede that they might be right on a point or two. This is called “open-mindedness”, something that the Fox News network’s Sean Hannity has apparently never heard of.
Hannity …

The first time I heard about the singer Tessane Chin was about a year or so before she first released her hit reggae-rock single “Hideaway” in Jamaica. My friend had seen her perform at a cafe here in Jamaica one day when other rock bands were also performing and …

I really feel awfully bad for Anna Nicole Smith. The poor girl not only just gave birth to a new child, but lost her son. As a result, she’s been one hot topic in the media, and in many ways, I think its a real shame. …

India has produced so many famous legendary figures who are well noted nationally and internationally. We have so many examples but Mother Teressa is an exceptional because she was not an Indian lady by birth she is an Albenian but her activities in India is praiseworthy.She is like a …

I’m not sure what to think about Arnold Schwarzenegger. At first glance he is an amazing success story. He came to America and built himself an empire investing all the money he made bodybuilding into stocks and bonds.
As an actor I like him very much. In …

Perhaps I am totally out of the loop of what is hot and what is not, but in my personal opinion, I, for the life of me, can not see what all of fuss is about when it comes to Linsey Lohan. The only thing I find remotely …

Carrie Underwood stormed onto the music scene when she won American Idol a few years ago. She was my favorite that season, a high school girl with a pretty smile and a great voice. I loved the image and the good vibe that she emoted. When …

I see the Oakland Raiders finally did what was expected and released former first overall pick JaMarcus Russell; pretty much solidifying him as the biggest draft bust in NFL history.
Now, because of his draft bust status, many will naturally say he should just retire and drop off the face …

Oprah is apparently not making enough money. Neither are Bob Green, Nate Berkus, Gayle King, or Dr. Robin Smith. In addition, I suppose Dr. Oz is not famous enough, and nor are Jean Chatzky or Marianne Williamson. They all now have to have their own XM …

I see Darren Sharper has reached a deal with the New Orleans Saints. I’m not sure what exactly that is going to mean to the team however.
A few years back, I think Sharper was one of the better safeties in the league. Even though he never reached the level …

Some running backs can get arrested for disorderly conduct and not have to worry about their roster spot on their team. Arizona Cardinals running back J.J. Arrington is not one of those guys.
The Cardinals used a second round pick on Arrington in 2005; indicating they had high hopes for …

Am I the only one who finds Angelina Jolie utterly annoying??? At least once a week, she is plastered all over the news and television for less than noteworthy events. “Oh look… it’s Angelina Jolie… She gave a bum a quarter!… She adopted another third world orphan!… …

The first time I saw Jenny McCarthy was on MTV’s singled out. I immediately liked her. She was funny, beautiful, confident and slightly on the crazy side. What’s not to like?
Jenny started her career posing for Playboy and the two things she is known for are …

Annette Bening is one of those actresses most people either love or hate. The odd thing is that I can’t seem to pick which one that applies to me. There are movies where I feel her personal shtick is great for the purpose of the …

As gangster’s moll Adrianna Le Cerva in hit mob drama The Sopranos, Drea De Matteo delivered the performance of her career and etched out a noteworthy performance in a series already crammed with stellar talent and genious writing.
Initially, Adrianna seemed little more than a superficial gangster’s moll. She’d grown …

The first time I had heard music by 50 Cent was when I heard his single In Da Club and I liked it. His other songs Candy Shop, and Just a Lil Bit were good too but I really knew very little about 50 Cent.
Then I started reading …

I am so happy for local celebrity, Lynn Nasir for getting married around last year or something. She is a local celebrity in my country and she used to be in a marriage with one of the big names in the entertainment industry. But the marriage did not …

V.C Andrews is an author who I’ve discovered years ago from the movie “Flowers in the Attic”, but I’ve only begun reading her books as of recently.
All the V.C Andrews books are broken down into series; I tried to check them out at the library, but there were …

Stephanie Meyer is a relatively new author to me; she’s the author of The Host and the teen romance Twilight series. I didn’t want to read the books at first because there was such a hype around it, not to mention a bunch of movies based on the books …

Oprah Winfrey is an icon. She hs been on tv forever and is likely to stay on tv forever. I’ve been watching her for years and I’ve noticed how she’s changed over the years.
I’m not an Oprah fan. I know lots of people out there are …

There has been so much controversy surrounding Britney Spears. I actually feel bad for her. I feel like it’s not her fault; the paparazzi is annoying and they put her in danger. Then they whine and yell when she rolls over their feet because they are too close to …

Courtney was a contestant on Survivor China and is now a contestant on Survivor 20 Heroes Vs Villians. To be honest I’m still not really sure what makes Courtney a Villain.
But I must admit I love watching her do her thing on the screen. Courtney is rail …

I cannot imagine what prompted John McCain to enlist Sarah Palin as his running mate for the 2008 election. First of all, he’s already catching flack for being the age he is, and having a medical record that isn’t so stellar. Furthermore, Sarah Palin just seems so …

I have been a huge fan of Will Smith every since he starred in the television show, Fresh Prince of Bel Air. I love all of his work and think that he is a very positive remodel for all kids and he is good at what he do. I …

I’m going to be completely honest and say that the first time that I noticed the actor Sir Ian McKellen would have been the first time I had seen him play the role of Gandalf in the first Lord of the Rings movie. I thought that he was an …

David Boreanaz is one of my most favourite actors. He has got that kind of energy and charisma that is truly unique to Hollywood stars. I would say that he has got what it takes to be a real star. He can be intense and deep, he can be …

I’m reading about how the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have fired their defensive coordinator Jim Bates and how the head coach Raheem Morris will now take over running the defense.
Interesting move but it shows that, as a coach, Morris is lost.
I can understand why Tampa Bay did what they did. …

I really think that Mandy Moore is an artiste that has been undermined a lot of times. This artiste is really very low-key and I truly admire her for creating her own name and sticking to her clean slate image. If you look at her personally from the …

Brian Roberts is one of my favorite Oriole Baseball players, he is a second baseman for the Orioles. He is a switch hitter which add value to his position on the team. He has spent his entire career with the Orioles organization. When he first started with …

If you have seen Dog the bounty hunter’s television show before, you know who Leland Chapman is easily. Leland is Dog’s second oldest son, and might I just saw, the cutest son out of all of them. He in my opinion is a pretty darn good bounty hunter, and …

I am so happy to write a review of Bellville Ohio resident Joellen Whatman. I really hate this snooty yuppy b!t!h. Pardon my french. This rather bossy and rude older woman, who has to be over fifty years old really makes me mad, and quite honestly disguists me the …

Kris Allen is the winner of American Idol Season 8, which is my favorite season so far. Although I like Adam Lambert (runner-up) better than him, he is still one of my favorite artists from the show. I like how he has a knack for making arrangements …

Leonardo DiCaprio is probably one of the most in demand actors and probably the youngest highest paid actors. At twenty million per picture and a reputation for delivering great performances, it’s safe to say that he has paid his dues; I’m pretty sure all his fans will agree with …

I’ll be honest from the start. I really don’t like Kelly Monaco very much, and it probably ties in more with the first season of Dancing with the Stars than anything else. Kelly was easily the worst dancer when the competition began. She did get better, …
