The Merican clan is actually a group of people from Arab-Indian stock and they first set foot on Penang, Malaysia. From there, the descendants multiplied and their clan married those of the Malay communities in Malaysia and their descendants are considered as the Merican. They are normally …

Like I suspect so many others, I watched with rapt attention Tiger Woods’ press conference this morning. I suppose like the sad commentary that it is on today’s society, it certainly sounded familiar (Kobe Bryant, Mark Sanford anyone?), though like some other very public steps towards reconciliation before …

One of the actors that I found interesting up to a couple years ago was the actor James Franco. This was back in his “Spiderman” days when he played Harry, and was chosen for a couple more serious roles such as Prince Tristan in the movie Tristan and Isolde. …

Shawn Michaels is a great wrestler who has an awesome ring persona. He has an arrogant attitude but he is funny about it so his attitude can easily be overlooked. His overall look is cool and his build is good but he should have got rid of the long …

Hugh Laurie is known to most viewers today from the “House M.D.” sitcom where he plays a talented doctor who solves unusual, difficult medical cases. While I like this show, I much prefer Hugh Laurie’s other works, especially in comedy. He has a remarkable comedy talent, and it is …

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 …

I’m not sure why the Packers made a move to sign Jarrett Bush back to their team this off season. But, I’m convinced it wasn’t the smartest move they made.
Bush is an OK special teams player (though he draws way too many penalties). But, when it comes to playing …

Milo Ventimiglia has established himself as one of the most respected and interesting rising stars in Hollywood. His success did not come over night. There was a lot of work involved, and a lot of bad movies. And his hard work and patience have really paid off. Milo has …

Mariah Carey the previous years and Mariah Carey as of current is a totally different person. I love her music extremely much and I have been following closely her news because I’m a big fan of her. Her songs ‘Always be my baby’, ‘Hero’ are truly inspiring and …

I’d have to say Demetri Martin is one of my favorite comedians alive today, if not my favorite. I find him hysterically funny because of how simple yet clever his sketches tend to be. Unlike comedians Dane Cook or traditional stand up comedians, Demetri Martin tends to still be …

Frankly speaking, I do not know who Cash Warren actually is. I only learned about him after reading about his quite famous actress girlfriend, Jessica Alba on being pregnant with his child. So I “googled” this guy and I was so shocked to see how good looking he …

MVP is just an average wrestler and isn’t anything special too watch when he is in the ring because he has boring moves and pretty basic moves and he is rather lame when he is in the ring but on the microphone and when he gives interviews this guy …

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, …

Frankly, I’m not sure what the big deal is about Diane Sawyer. I’ve never liked her, and she bores me greatly. I read this week that it’s rumored she’s fighting with ex-co-anchor, Charles Gibson. He denies it, but who knows. It seems like I’ve heard …

Hirano Aya is a japanese voice actress and has many famous roles such as starring Suzumiya Haruhi in “The melancholy of suzumiya haruhi”, Amane Misa in “Death Note”, Konata in “Lucky Star”, Reira in “NANA” and many others. She is known for her excellence in those roles and for …

Jaco Pastorius: a legend, an icon and a name known to a lot of musicians, particularly in the jazz-fusion scene and most especially to a lot of bassplayers throughout the world.
I`m a bassplayer myself and I grew up listening to the 90`s rock and heavy metal stuff and …

I would imagine that many people think of Maureen O’Hara for her dramatic film role opposite John Wayne in The Quiet Man. She was brilliant in that, but my fascination with this talented thespian started with The Parent Trap, when she played the mother of Hayley Mills and …

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 …

David Beckham is an English soccer player - but that sentence hardly does justice to the massive levels of support, hype and criticism that this player has received over the course of his playing career, whether it be in England, Italy or the U.S. Add to that his marriage …

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 …

Madeleine Peyroux is an awesome jazz singer, and I respect this singer for the fact that she doesn’t care about her image as in being a plus-size and all, and instead concentrate on her lovely and sultry voice. It is no wonder that she started singing at a very …

Rampage Jackson is a decent fighter and a decent actor and there are both bad and good things about this guy but for the most part I think that this guy has more good things than bad things to be said about him. I don’t really like this guys …

James Hetfield, best known as the singer, rhythm guitarist, and primary songwriter of Metallica, is a person who has come an extremely long way throughout his entire life - and not just because of what he has done in the band but also within …

Several years ago, I would watch Kurt Warner as he played for the St. Louis Rams and remember not liking him too much. Part of that was the fact he had one his second league MVP title and I was afraid he would tie Brett Favre with three. The …

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 …

Way back when, I remember my parents insisting on watching some football movie. I really had no interest in it, but I found myself watching it anyway. Okay, big correction. This wasn’t a football movie, this was a TV drama about the courage of one man …

Mick Jagger was the leader of the rolling stones band and to be very honest this guy was a complete joke and only was famous because he had a shot and a chance at it not because he earned it. His songs were always horrible and he has always …

This cute and perky actress, Meg Ryan is someone that I truly admire. She is very convincing in her role in the movie “You’ve Got Mail”. I totally have been adoring her since whenever watching her acting in any movie. Another movie that got me hooked would …

I think Howard Stern the radio shock VJ is very obnoxious and his attitude is just so vulgar and the way he acts is disgusting and you know what these are the reasons I absolutely love Howard Stern. He may be a big pig and say gross things and …

The first time I heard of the singer and actress Demi Lovato was a couple years ago when I heard her name on the cable television channel Disney. Now at the time I was an adult and had almost no interest in watching most children’s programmes, and so I …

Russell Crowe is an Australian actor who has made a successful career for himself in Hollywood. I have not seen all of his films; however, the ones I have seen thus far I’ve really liked.
The first movie I saw Russell Crowe in was “L.A. Confidential”. The movie had been …

The first time I heard who Paris Hilton was was on the news. She seemed to have started attending a lot of A list parties. Then it was all over the papers that the socialite was famous for being famous.
Initially i thought this was true that Paris …

The Packers’ season is now over with so I wanted to take the time to look at the key people in their organization and give my opinion on how they have done; both this season and leading up to this season to date.
I guess I’ll start with the main …

I would like to share few words about Ms. Sudha Chandran, a famous classical dancer cum actress of India. She is a lady with determination. She belongs to Andhrapradesh state of India. She lost one of her legs in an accident. But she never lost her courage and determination. …

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 …

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’m so happy for the couple, Matthew McConaughey and Camilla Alves. They are certainly a very gorgeous couple and they are expecting a baby boy on the way. Not sure which month Camilla will give birth though. Camilla Alves is a gorgeous Brazilian model and she …

Candice Woodcook is currently on Survivor Heroes Vs Villains and to be honest I haven’t seen anything heroic come out of her yet.
She is pretty but boring.
She seems to lack drive and is uncomfortable making decisions for fear of making the wrong decision.
On her season of Survivor she was …

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 …

When I think about the name Ray J, only one word comes to mind: Tool. There is something about this arrogant guy that makes even the worst paparazzi run for cover. His arrogance and love for the spotlight is longer than your average football field, yet is professional success …

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 …

Paging Doctor Drake, heartbreak!
In the early eighties, Rick Springfield joined the cast of General Hospital and began his climb to pop idol status. The actor/singer claimed he was trying to focus on his acting for a while, and the character of Doctor Noah Drake certainly allowed him to …

Jessica Biel is a talented actress who has appeared in many different types of films. I will admit that I didn’t follow her career while she was a popular television star. But after she hit the big screen I noticed that she can be quite the …

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 …

A few years ago, I was a bit upset when the Chicago Bears drafted quarterback Rex Grossman because I had thought he would fall to the Packers and be their quarterback of the future.
I’m actually glad our division rivals drafted him now.
Coming out of college, Grossman looked like the …

I’m not one of those people who has an interest in mainstream music, so I’m generally one of the last people to find out about certain popular songs even if some people have heard them playing on the radio for ages. The same thing happened when a few of Sam …

I was just reading about Vernon Gholston not too long ago and remember how big of a star he was coming out of college. As I kind of guessed would happen, he, at this point in his career, has not lived up to his NFL potential and is getting …

I really don’t understand what Kate Moss sees in Pete Doherty, her boyfriend of I’m not sure how long but they have been together for quite some time now. After that cocaine incident, Kate Moss has bucked up and been getting numerous modeling offers which continue to make her …

You probably have no idea who this actress is. But if you have seen the horrible movie FearDot.com then you know that she is the whimsical looking actress with the large eyes, who seems like she should have a deeper accent than she does. She’s …

Kenny Sia is Malaysia’s top blogger who earns RM5000 per month through the advertisements he places on his blog. That just goes to prove how famous his blog is.
His blog is indeed good. I enjoy reading his blog posts as they are usually humorous. …
