Nicole Kidman is not a talented actress and I am just being honest when I say she only climbed the ranks due to her marriage with Tom Cruise. On screen I do not find that Nicole Kidman brings her characters to life and she does not make the movies …

Rihanna is one of the few black singers that I like. I like her passionate style and very natural and clean voice. I hate to hear singers who make their voice big and sound like singing lions. Rihanna is not. Her voice needs no alteration. It is just naturally …

I saw the NFL injury report today and Denver Broncos quarterback Chris Simms is on it. Too bad for him because I think this means he lost out on his opportunity to challenge for the starting role on that team.
When he was with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Simms showed …

The other evening I was watching a show from the late 50’s of What’s My Line, and Tony Randall was the mystery guest. Watching him just reminded me of the huge talent that he was.
Tony Randall had a tremendous knack for comedy. He had timing and style. …

As lead characters go, Allison Dubois is an interesting one. Overworked wife and mother, complete with psychic ability and a prestigious place on the team of a police team; she’s certainly got more skills than your average type.
While the acting of Patricia Arquette won’t start any fires, she plays …

Back in 1977, I tuned in to one of my soap operas, General Hospital, and saw there was a new character on the show, a stuffy-nosed doctor named Alan Quartermaine. I liked him, and he looked so very familiar. I just couldn’t place him, though. I …

Today I’m going to take a minute or two to talk about Jeremy Thompson, the soon to be retired linebacker for the Green Bay Packers.
Thompson only played in the league for a few years and isn’t a household name so most people probably don’t even know who he is. …

Ian Somerhalder is another actor that is semi new to me. I remember him from a horror movie awhile back called “Pulse”. At first I didn’t know it was Somerhalder in “Pulse” until I started seeing pictures of him all of the entertainment websites and shows, and that’s when …

One of my biggest challenges, while preparing for my wedding, is looking for the best, if not perfect, make up artist in town. My first step is to read local wedding forums and check out the recommendations and experiences of other brides.
Luckily, there have been so many choices and …

I think that Maggie Gyllenhaal is Jake Gyllenhaal’s sister. Yes, she is. If you guys do not know who she is, it’s the actress that has recently acted in the latest, The Dark Knight. She is quite a good actress and her dad is a Director or …

Adrian Pang is not a handsome local actor, but he has this very charming and funny aura that I like so much. He could act in English and in his native language and I would follow through to watch him act because I think he simply rocks!
The …

Decades ago, an alluring newcomer to the world of soap operas made her mark on a show called One Life to Live. While her character was short term, almost before her last day, she was invited to start a new character on General Hospital. It’s a joy …

It’s hard to know where to start with a man like Sir Alex Ferguson. It is phenomenal to think that the once Rangers striker, who enjoyed success as manager with Aberdeen would go on to achieve so much with Manchester United and become the most admired and respected man …

Andrew McCarthy is known for his boyish looks and angelic smile. He is part of a group of young generation of actors in the 80’s called the Brat Pack. My favorite movies of him are Mannequin, St. Elmo’s Fire and Pretty in Pink. I was crushing him the first …

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 …

I’ve been watching reports coming out of Philadelphia with some interest because it’ll be interesting to see if the team really does enter the 2010 season with Donovan McNabb as their starter.
Unlike a lot of fans, I’m not a McNabb basher. I think he is an underrated player playing …

Michael Waltrip is the driver of the Napa Number 55 Toyota in the NASCAR series. He’s also the owner of Michael Waltrip Racing that currently fields a three-car team. Love him or hate it, one thing this man is, is colorful.
I can’t say I’m a fan of …

My memory of when I first became aware of the actor “Jake Gyllenhaal” is a little sketchy. I know that he was around from the nineteen nineties as a child actor, but I don’t think that he was very popular since I don’t remember seeing him then. I also …

I first saw the English actor Alun Armstrong in the theatrical performance of Nicholas Nickleby (based on a novel by Charles Dickens) where he played Mr. Squeers, and played remarkably well. Squeers, a cruel one-eyed schoolmaster, is a rather unpleasant, if not repulsive, character, and yet Mr. Armstrong somehow …

Benigno Aquino Jr. is my hero. The Filipinos fondly call him Ninoy. I decided to write about him now because today (the time of this writing, August 21, 2009) marks his 26th death anniversary. Through this humble piece, I hope to inspire all readers to follow after Ninoy’s patriotic …

I would not necessarily describe Bill as being the most popular guy in America, but I will give him credit for saying exactly what is on his mind. It is acutally irrelevant to me, if I agree with his opinion, or not regarding various political issues. Either …

Julia Davis is a comic performer and writer from the United Kingdom, most famous for her roles and writing credits in things like Nighty Night and Human Remains.
While she’s not to everyone’s taste, she’s certainly a real talent. There’s a real actress at work beneath her various guises which really …

When I first saw Sandra on Survivor Pearl islands I didn’t think much of her. Sandra unlike the other contestants didn’t stand out. Sandra isn’t beautiful in the traditional sense, she is a mother and she is very much normal. She didn’t have a strong personality …

Pete Wentz is the bass player for the American rock / pop group Fall Out Boy. Although he is not the lead singer, he has been the front man for the band right from the start. His natural combination of charm, charisma, assertiveness and fashionable look have made his …

While stuck waiting in a doctor’s office today, I picked up an old issue of Reader’s Digest and began reading a rather alarming article about how the circumstances surrounding the death of Marilyn Monroe so many years ago. I was shocked because I just always assumed that that …

I see Leon Washington is signing his restricted free agent tender and will return to the New York Jets next season.
This is not much of a surprise. Under normal circumstances, he might have drawn some interest. But, when another team has to give up a draft pick, it’s a …

When Manchester United signed Andy Cole, he was the Newcastle United goal machine that simply could not stop scoring. Nobody had seen anything like his ability to score so many goals in one season for his club.
I remember how excited I was when it had been announced that he …

I see the Green Bay Packers offered cornerback/kick returner Will Blackmon the low restricted free agent tender. That means he will play for a relatively low amount next season unless he finds another team that will make him an offer; giving the Packers a chance to match it or …

Amanda Palmer, pianist and lead singer of the cabaret duo ‘The Dresden Dolls’ plays many different roles. Palmer is an activist, solo artist, stage performer and street performer.
Palmer’s style of music is self proclaimed Brechtian punk cabaret. Despite being part of a duo, Palmer is a very active …

Avril Lavigne is a singer-song writer, fashion designer and actress. I began to know her when she sang Complicated. Actually, I first saw the video and seen how weird she was. She was wearing white and has a blonde straight hair. She looks pretty if she has no make …

I see Browns quarterback Brady Quinn is done for the rest of the year with a foot injury. It’s probably not something that really is going to have too much of an impact on the team, considering they aren’t exactly in playoff contention with just three wins. But, it …

I think that Urban Meyer is one of the best coaches in the game of College Football today. At the University of Florida, he has made the team into regular National Championship Contenders as he was won two national championships in his short tenure over there and his team, …

In my opinion, one of the most underrated actors of all time is the wonderful Dick Van Dyke. Yes, he gets acclaim and has in a number of ways, but I seldom hear him mentioned with some of the great actors, and I really believe he is.
Of course, …

I learn about Kim Kardashian around late 2007 and I just know that she is the son of this particular lawyer who defended or acted against the case for OJ Simpson. None too sure which, but she is definitely getting the raves nowadays.
I don’t have any …

I see the Cleveland Browns signed running back Noah Herron today. I would say it is an interesting move but I have a hard time believing it’s a transaction that will end up meaning too much once training camp is over with.
Herron has always been a guy with potential. …

One of the actresses who I have to say that I never really like is the one named Heather Graham. Ever since I first saw her some time in the late 1990s or early 2000s in a movie I didn’t like her, and there has never been a time …

Despite all the critics and drama that has surrounded Tom Cruise for the past five years or so, I still think he’s a great actor and it doesn’t hurt that he’s good-looking, too.
I didn’t get my first glimpse of Tom Cruise until I saw him in the movie “The …

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, …

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 …

I am making a review about Kristen Stewart basing on the day she became well-known as Bella Swan in the famous movie Twilight.
I honestly do not find her really good looking. I do not find her ugly either. She is quite decent on acting but honestly, as a Bella …

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 far as I’m concerned there is only word word to sum up Lisa Rinna and that is odd. I have watched her on television for many years and it always come back to one thing and that is when it comes to Lisa Rinna something doesn’t feel …

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 …

A British actor by birth, Weber has found wider recognition since his move to the states. Now most famous for his regular appearances ont the paranormal drama series Medium, Weber plays Joe Dubois, the doting and supportive husband of lead character Allison, the titular medium.
He may not be the …

I first saw the British actress Judy Cornwell in the “Keeping Up Appearances” show, which is one of my favorite British sitcoms. She plays Daisy, a middle ages housewife hopelessly in love with her lazy slob of a husband, Onslow, and she is hilarious in this role. I think …

This couple, Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake has been going on for quite sometime and my friends and I were jokingly betting on how long they can go together. We even had a time-line drawn (for fun, of course) of whether they could beat the relationship time that Justin …
