Hollywood Politics

I've not posted here in such a long time.  I've been very disillusioned at Hollywood's drooling over President Obama.  I really think that with the spotlight celebrities have on them, they should keep their mouths shut politically speaking because when they don't, the less informed voters go along with what is mainstream (and celebrities and that culture is mainstream) and that's bad for the rest of us who actually care about our country but get stuck with...well, who we are stuck with.

When they speak out, they tend to lose me as a fan.  Jon Bon Jovi is an example.  I have LOVED him since I was a kid but the past couple years, there's no shine left on him for me.  It's a turn off when celebrities mix politics with their celebrity glitter.

I am not sure if I will use this blog or not.  I guess time will tell.

Moron and Obama in the Same Sentence?

Wow, the media used Obama and "moronically" in the same sentence.  Isn't that against some media rule or something enacted when President Obama became President?  I was surprised to see it - not surprised at the action of President Obama but at the way it was reported.  Here is the article and here is the photo they are talking about.

I found this commentator's response particularly funny.

so, is the photo real?  Some say yes.  Who knows.

Celebrity Politics

I really wish most celebrities would stay out of the mainstream media about their political leanings.  I think it is odd that super-rich celebrities think they know what is best for the mainstream, middle-class and lower-class masses when they are so out of touch with reality.

There are a few celebrities that actually seem to play a real role (George Clooney I'm thinking of at the moment) but seeing Julia Roberts on David Letterman (insomnia that night or else I wouldn't have been watching at all) talk about who she is going to vote for again in the upcoming election - pfft.  Will she actually vote or will her housekeeper or personal assistant mail the vote in for her?  They're just not realistic.

Most Recent Celeb News

Oh come on, what's the world coming to when John Travolta's Mercedes gets stolen?  Leave Danny's car alone!!

If you're looking for the best of the Emmy's, you will find it here.

I saw that Desperate Housewives premieres September 25th.  That's bad that I actually thought Desperate Housewives was over.  I thought they'd all packed up and moved away from Wisteria Lane.  I've been out of the whole "veg out in front of the television" loop for awhile now.  Obviously.

I read that Ashton Kutcher was replacing Charlie Sheen on Two and a Half Men (in a new role, not Charlie Sheen's role which is getting killed off I read).  Notice I said "read" and not "watched".  I did say I've been out of the television loop for awhile. It shows.

Not a Katy Perry Fan

I am not a Katy Perry fan. Sorry, but it sounds like bubblegum pop and while I LOVED the 80's and pop music then and now, I doubt I would've loved Katy Perry even back in the 80's.  Besides, having to explain that little french word (starts with menage - - ) in one of her latest songs to my daughter (so she didn't ask her french teacher) was not one of my best parenting moments.  She walked off saying, "Ewwwww!!!"  I wonder if I should write that in her baby book for her to have when she is older and laugh about.  Ugh.

Listening to music on the radio with too many parts all bleeped out - - really silly.  I'd like to be able to listen to a song fully on the radio and actually hear all of it. Music is getting quite vulgar.  I'm not a prude and really like artists like Prince and Eminem (and he's a bad one for bleeped out songs on the radio) but it's going a bit far with the vulgarity anymore. My kids walk around singing Nicki Minaj and they're censoring themselves with bleeped silence at the bad parts (good thing for them).

Celebrity Hair Style Trends

Celebrity hair can launch the next hair trend, shout for attention, or show personality.  One thing that we can be sure of, however, is that no matter what the reason behind the hair styles, celebrity hair can be the envy of many for their healthy-looking locks, great style, and daring to be different.

Celebrity, Katy Perry, who always has beautiful hair,
shows the latest hair style trend.

There are many celebrities who have fashionable, beautiful hair.  Fergie (Stacy Ann Ferguson) comes to mind.  Rihanna is a definite trend-setter.  Jennifer Aniston's hairstyles are emulated by many.  Reese Witherspon is one celebrity who always has classic, beautiful hair.  Reese's style, below, is actually easily achieved.   

If you want hair like Reese's, start out with a great haircut.  Then protect your hair during washing and styling with ghd thermal protectors and ghd styling products.  This will protect hair from heat damage no matter what the hair style.  Blow dry with a large, paddle brush, angling in the direction you want the hair to lay when dry.  Then, using ghd straighteners, flat iron your hair.  For the bangs, give the bangs a slight roll under as you pull the straightener through to give the bangs a bit of a curve.  To set the style and prevent fly-aways, use a ghd polishing serum to get rid of fly-aways and prevent static as well as a little bit of texturizing product around the sides that are angled around the face, like ghd precision wax.  Give the hair a little tousle to add a bit of volume and that sexy look and then spray lightly to hold the style but not so much that the hair doesn't have natural movement. 

ghd hair straighteners

Keeping hair healthy is easy with the regular trimming of split ends, the use of great products to protect hair from heat damage and great styling tools to straighten, wave, curl, or flip.  Celebrity hair styles aren't just for celebrities and can just as easily be styled and worn by you too!

Second - whether Kim Kardashian might be pregnant or not?  If she was really buying pregnancy tests, it screams of PUBLICITY STUNT!  The Kardashians have people to shop for them if they want things kept private.

Third - who cares?

Mission Impossible: Sting for Taylor Swift

You hear the Mission Impossible theme in the background. A man wearing men's sunglasses enters The Sports Cellar bar in Idaho doing recon. Is he on the hunt for terrorists? Was somebody on the FBI's Most Wanted List last seen in the bar?

They caught their bad guy! They were playing Taylor Swift's music without having paid for the right to play it - even on the karaoke machine. Oh my! Oh the horror!

BMI and Taylor Swift are suing mad. Seriously?

The Rock & His Sunglasses

Dwayne Johnson (The Rock) is looking pretty good in his sunglasses. The Rock is one guy who is liked by both children (for his roles in movies such as The Game Plan and Race to Witch Mountain) and adults (for The Scorpion King), especially the moms I would imagine.

OK, I'll admit it. The guy is hot. It's too bad that he and his wife split up in 2007. They have a daughter together. They did say they'd remain friends forever. I hope that's true. It's nice to think that not all couples who separate will have a hate/hate relationship forever thereafter.
