Bristol Palin's Score on Dancing With The Stars...


I don't usually watch "Dancing With The Stars," but I was mildly curious because I seemed to know much more about this cast than any of the previous seasons (It was as awful as I thought it would be). I laughed out loud when I saw that Bristol Palin's score from the judges was 6 6 6. Maybe the universe is trying to tell us a little something.

Cree Summer as a cartoon voice

I have always enjoyed Cree Summer. From her TV work on "A Different World" to her singing album "Street Fairy" she is talented in many ways. I always wonder what she has been up to because I don't see her on TV so much. Apparently, she is one of the most sought after cartoon voices on television. She has been doing voices for cartoons for years and gets paid a lot of money doing such. It was interesting to hear her talk about the character process for one of the many cartoon character voices that she does.

"For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow is Enuf..." Trailer


Wow what a cast. I think every black actress in Hollywood (besides Halle Berry) is in this film. Also appears to be more complex than Tyler Perry's usual dramatic efforts, probably because he did not write this one. Looks interesting.

*I saw this movie on opening weekend. The performances were great by everyone. My favorites were Macy Gray, Phylicia Rashad, Thandie Newton, Whoopi and Kimberly Elise. The subject matter was just too much for me; rape, abortion, cheating, abuse it goes on and on. This was a good movie, it was just very bleak for most of the film. It almost has no happiness or at least not enough. Kudos to Tyler Perry for stepping up the complexity though.

McDonald's Attack!!


I should have posted this earlier, but it is still unbelievable. I saw this on the Soup or somewhere else. This crazy woman wanted McNuggets during breakfast hours and went completely berserk when she was told by the staff that they were only serving breakfast at this time. What a nutcase! She fights with 2 women in the window and then shatters the glass (I guess she really wanted them). It doesn't show it in this clip, but afterward they serve the next customer though the broken glass window as if nothing had even happened. Maybe it happens there all the time.

Kettle Brand Baked Potato Chips


These are my new favorite thing in the whole world. I have a secret weakness for potato chips (like Kryptonite to Superman). Baked potato chips usually will satisfy, but they usually leave me wanting their original greasy counterpart. I particularly like the crisp crunchiness of Kettle Brand Chips, so I was curious as to how different these would taste from the original. Surprisingly, they taste just as good and are much healthier (only about 100 calories per serving). I was blown away by their taste. I think if I hadn't been told that they were baked, i probably wouldn't know the difference. They are just as tasty and crunchy as the fried chips. If you haven't tried these already (and love potato chips), I would highly recommend these. Enjoy!

Black Swan


This movie looks interesting. It is directed by Darren Aronofsky who also directed "The Wrestler" and "Requiem For A Dream." It is a thriller that stars Natalie Portman, Mila Kunis and Winona Ryder. It looks a little disturbing, I think she might actually turn into a Black Swan. The visuals are interesting enough. There's already Oscar-buzz for Natalie and Winona for this one.

Review: I'm obsessed with this film. I've seen it twice now and it keeps getting better. It has everything that I would want in a film. Great acting and also visually stunning. There wasn't one thing that I did not love about this movie. It was completely creepy, but still managed to be beautiful at the same time (which is hard to achieve). Natalie Portman will win the best actress Oscar for certain. A must see!
