I go back and forth with my opinions of Adam Lambert. Sometimes I think I understand who he is, and sometimes I don't think we'll ever know who the real Adam really is. The more and more I see, I keep thinking it'll clear it all up for me, but ...
After having the following conversation with some friends after the American Idol results show tonight, I decided to turn it into a post. There are two necessary ingredients to being a winner, whether it's the winner of a reality show, the winner of a poker game, or the winner of ...
ABC's latest Bachelor appears almost perfect on paper. He's cute enough. He's a Navy Lieutenant, he's a doctor, a humanitarian, a former Sunday school teacher, and he's an Iron Man triathelete. He's also sensitive. This past week we saw him attend to an injured Bevin, even accompanying her to the ...
Full disclosure – I am laid up right now on the sofa filled to the top with antibiotics and painkillers thanks to a freakishly painful ear infection which makes my head feel like it is about to explode. And yes, I have an ear infection (second time in the last ...
Once upon a time, I lived in a teeny-bopper world. Every week I poured through the pages of Bop magazine, listened to Tiffany & New Kids on The Block, and I only watched MTV & Nickelodeon. This world was ruled by two young actors, The Coreys. Every week their pictures would be torn from the pages of Bop & Tiger Beat to be tacked onto my bedroom wall. I watched their movies so many times it would be impossible to count. I knew every line [...]
It’s a short recap today, because it’s one of those days where nothing really happens. There’s the usual stuff, as you’ll see, but the biggest thing to rock the Big Brother house is the unveiling of Eric’s newest catch phrase. Kail is once again the first one up this morning, followed by Jen. They two of them sit outside and discuss who the replacement nomination might be. They’re pretty sure it’ll be Zach. One thing that they know for sure, however, is that one of [...]
I have to say, when I saw what the topic of this week’s session was, I had to fight from snoozing. The topic, Scott’s perfect match. Considering I have followed Scott’s dating exploits for years in the tabloids, (as so many of us have) I was able to answer that one myself. Blond, big breasted, perfect ass, and a playmate. Scott tries to deny it, but eventually admits to forever searching for the perfect woman. When every woman Scott dates turns out NOT to be [...]
The houseguests on Big Brother knew they’d be getting up earlier than usual today, and many were complaining about the expected 8:00 AM wakeup call, yet once they were woken up this morning at 7:00 AM, no one was really complaining. All Night Dick even went to bed early around 3:30, so I’m sure he was a little surprised to only end up getting a little over three hours of sleep. And while the HGs weren’t complaining about the hours they were woken up, they [...]
Dear Bret, Thank you for an awesome show at Jones Beach last week! Finally, it didn’t rain! Your covers from the new Poison’d album were great. Your originals were as fabulous. I couldn’t even tell that CC had the flu. You guys rocked the place as you always do. I’ll see you in person again next summer and for all the summers you come back. However, at the end of the concert, you got a little weird. You talked about an after-party, but you didn’t [...]
This morning we’re treated to a lengthy view of the Vortex of Doom, during which BB must have initiated the wake up sequence. When the feeds are up, Dustin and Nick are in the HoH room talking about the nominations. All Dustin will say is that he’s decided, but when Nick leaves to room Amber tells him that Jen and Kail are going up. So much for promising Dustin that she wouldn’t spill anything else. Now we’re with Dustin and Kail, and Dustin is explaining [...]
Welcome, superheroes, to the premiere of the second season of Who Wants to be a Superhero, hosted by Stan Lee of Marvel Comics. The prize of this particular contest is nothing less than “immortality”; the winner will star in both a comic book and a Sci-Fi original movie and have an action figure made in their likeness. The first few minutes tell how the ten finalists were selected. There were auditions in eleven cities throughout the U.S., and hordes of outlandishly dressed men and women [...]
It will be interesting to see today if Eric gives up trying to convince the others to turn their votes to getting rid of Kail to complete his America’s Player task, or if he decides not to push it any further and just accept that this one is a losing battle. It sure didn’t seem last night like he was successful changing anyone’s minds. Mike was certainly looking like a goner. The wakeup call comes in this morning, and tells Dick he has 60 minutes [...]
It’s Wednesday. No voting, no competitions, no live show, and no ceremonies. That usually means lots of sleeping and numerous conversations that are made up of mostly rehash, with a healthy dose of “we have to get them out of here!” Big Brother really needs to find something for these people to do on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. And I’m not talking about a bead kit and origami. For some reason, BB wakes the hamsters up at 9am with something instrumental and very loud – I [...]
Watching the top 10 dancers being introduced at the beginning of the show, it’s still hard to believe Hok isn’t there. Or Anya. They both should have been top 10. I’m trying to put all that away, though, so that I can enjoy the show from hereon out. The dancers will now pick new partners each week and will also be dancing solos. The judges tonight will be the usual Nigel Lythgoe and Mary Murphy, along with Mia Michaels. For their solos this week, they [...]
