Matt Flynn as been the Green Bay Packers’ backup quarterback for about three years now and, up until recently, I really couldn’t write much about him because I only got a chance to see him play in very limited action.
However, after getting his first start against a talented New …

I first became familiar with Zooey Deschanel when she starred in the Wizard of Oz re-make Tin Man. At the time, the only reason I had any idea of who she was is the fact she is the sister of Emily Deschanel and I’m a huge fan of the …

I think Katherine Heigl is my new favorite actress. I have so much respect for her since she bowed out of the Emmy deal. She said, in many articles written about the subject, that she didn’t believe that she was given Emmy material. She is beautiful and has conviction. …

I think Barry Watson is a real good looking guy. But unfortunately, he do not have any sort of great acting break; personally to me. The only used to be memorable acting stint that I really loved about him before would be in ‘7th Heaven’. But I …

From the moment I saw Avril Lavigne I was an instant fan. Firstly her song complicated spoke to everybody. She was an alternative girl that didn’t fit the mould of the typical Hollywood pop-star.
However now that I see more of Avril in the public eye I am …

At first glance, when I read the news that Andrew Firestone, the former guy that ladies all over United States perhaps swoon over from the TV Show ‘The Bachelor’, has married Ivana Bozilovic, I was quite shocked and surprised. But then I recover from my shock because I think …

The Miz is an awesome wrestler who wrestles in the WWE and I am a pretty big fan of his for a few reasons. First off his attitude is one of a kind and he says some pretty screwed up but funny things. I think it is funny when …

Croon and swoon time! When I was a young girl, I just adored Bobby Sherman. I first saw him singing away on Shindig and then a few years later, he was a lumberjack on Here Come the Brides. It was that show that made him a …

Ryan Gosling has proven himself to be one of the top actors in Hollywood today. His strong, sincere and understated manner of acting has earned his good reputation in North American and even in Europe. And of course, he is of my most favorite actors.
The thing I like the …

I knew nothing of the English actor Tom Hiddleston until he caught my attention playing the role of the super villain Loki in the movie Thor, and then in the movie Avengers. He was so good that I personally thought that he stole the show both times, and since …

Since the Green Bay Packers are making a transition from a 4-3 defense to a 3-4 defense, there has been a lot of talk about the different defensive personnel on the team and which ones will be able to make the transition and what their new roles might be.
Interesting …

Christopher Pikes is an author who I discovered in middle school when I was on a class trip to the local library. Before I randomly picked up one of his books off the local library bookshelves in middle school, I was not an avid reader and because of him …

I was never a fan of N’Sync. The boy bands that were so popular in their era were too young for this old fogey. Thus, most of my exposure to them was limited to fluke sightings on television. I know I saw them, but I’ll be …

I found a new favorite artist to add to my constantly growing and changing collection. This soulful English singer is just awesome. I love her deep and raspy voice. The very first time I heard of her was when I heard the song “Rehab”. Some compare her voice and …

When I first saw Jenni Garth she was on Beverly hills 90210 as Kelly Taylor a spoiled girl from Beverly Hills who had trouble with men and many other things.

I remember watching Helen Hunt as a child actress. She was phenomenal in roles as the daughter on several TV shows, like Swiss Family Robinson and It Takes Two. …

Samantha Mumba is a lady with dark looks and she definitely looks awesome.
I most remember her for the role she portrayed in the movie, Time Machine, along that dishing hunk and she played her role pretty well, though her dialogs were pretty limited. I believe she is …

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 …

When I was growing up Lee Sharpe broke onto the scene as a Manchester United player. By todays standards he probably wasn’t all that special, but back then he was quick and he was skillful and the country had not seen such a young player thrive in top flight …

A woman worthy of admiration is the great actress/singer, Debbie Reynolds. She’s had a terrific career in show business, and she’s one gutsy lady to boot.
Just a few highlights off the top of my head that I often think about when the name Debbie Reynolds is finished.
First, I …

Jack Nicholson should be on everyone’s favorite actor’s list because he is so charismatic and has that cool factor that will never fade. I can’t really recall the first time I saw him appear in a movie, however, I do remember my high school humanities teacher showing us his …

Brad Garrett is a very good actor. He has had many roles in movies and in TV. He is mostly known for his big role on the hit TV show EveryBody loves Raymond. He played the part of Robert Ray’s brother. I think that this show, is very funny. Brad …

Gerard Butler is one of my most favourite actors, if not the most favourite. I first fell in love with him in 2001 after seeing his performance in Dracula 2000. I have always loved vampire stories, but every movie has left me disappointed. In the movies the vampires were …

Rey Mysterio is a wrestler in the WWE and this guy was not easy to like at first but I now consider him a great entertainer and he provides so much entertainment value for the WWE and to start with and what makes him so great is that he …

If you have ever watched storage wars, you may know a charachter by the name of Darrell Sheets. He is a seasoned veteran of buying storage lockers and knows a lot about collectibles. When you see him he looks like an average surfer guy with cheap clothes. You …

Whoever said that singing was a hard dream to come true, especially to someone who is already working in a field that is far from the music industry? Well, whoever said that has never met Mass Alert.
Mass Alert or Masara, is a Japanese Musician who had just debuted last …

The first time I had ever heard of Robert Pattinson was when I saw the shorts for Twilight and I was very surprised to see him in that role. To me he looked kind of silly with his hair fluffed up and his skin a deathly pale. …

I have seen Madonna in the papers my whole life and to be honest I can’t imagine not seeing her in the papers.
At first she seemed like a crazy woman who loved the shock factor. From her book on sex to her blatant nudity it was only natural …

50 cent is a rapper who I am somewhat a fan of but he does have some serious downfalls to him. The first thing I do not like about this guy is that most of his newer songs are too soft and his songs now sound all the same. …

Lindsay Lohan was a great child actress, but she threw it all away. Lindsay Dee Lohan was born in New York City on July 2, 1986 and she became most famous for her role in The Parent Trap. After that, her career soared and she was one of the …

I both love and hate this internationally renowned popular talk show host and billionaire. She is just a combination of qualities that both appeal and discourage me. As a woman, she inspired me by her open-mindedness, intelligence, and independence but her religious and spiritual beliefs disappoint me especially in …

There are a couple actors that I tend to respect more than most as an artist for the simple fact of how much passion and work that they put into their art form. I’ve already mentioned the actress Helena Bonham-Carter, and now I think I’ll talk about the famous …

Brian Keith was a tall, rugged individual who could play a variety of roles in movies and on television. The first time I really knew who he was from the 1961 Disney classic, The Parent Trap, where he played the father of twins, both played so well by …

Unfortunately I was not lucky enough to see Carrie Underwood when she first made her debut on American idol. So from what I saw from her without listening to her voice I didn’t think she was anything special. Another pretty blond who appeared to have no …

I’m usually a person who believes in giving NFL coaches a chance before trashing them. But, I really can’t see what the Denver Broncos saw in coach Josh McDaniels when they hired him last year.
First, he has done nothing to turn around the team’s fortunes. They went through the …

Jonathan Frakes is an actor probably best known for his role as Commander William T. Riker on Star Trek: The Next Generation, but I remember him first as the jerky brother in North and South, Books 1 and 2.
When I think of Jonathan Frakes, I also think of his …

I can only imagine what this man was like when he was younger, but Simon Cowell just seems to have a licence to print money. It doesn’t matter what he does, the nation, even America seem enthralled by it and once again it makes him millions.
When he first burst …

Scott Speedman (his real name is Robert Scott Speedman) was born in the UK, grew up in Canada and currently lives in L.A. You can see him work both in major Hollywood movies and small independent films. I can’t say that he is the best actor, or even …

The Green Bay Packers apparently were able to resign free agent defensive end Michael Montgomery to a two year deal yesterday. I think that’s great. I’m just hoping the investment into the young player proves to be worth the money.
Montgomery is one of many back up linemen on the …

Oprah Winfrey has been around the barn more than once. Actually Oprah Winfrey has been around the barn probably a lot more than that. This woman grew up disadvantaged, poor and she claims that she was abused in more ways than one. What did Oprah Winfrey do with that? …

Although he played the first few years of his international career in an Australian team packed with all time greats of the calibre of Glenn McGrath and Adam Gilchrist, Michael Clarke seems to me to be likely to become one of the most important figures in the team now …

Bruce Lee is probably the best fighter who ever walked the earth. I really think that he is one of the best martial artists to ever kick someone. His moves were so perfect and great. He had so much energy and speed and was able to face any fighter. Bruce …

It’s fair to say that Fabien Barthez was a bit of a crazy goalkeeper that gave the position a whole new feeling about it. I had never been of a fan of his but arrived with a world cup winners medal around his neck having won the competition with …
