X Factor USA Final 3

I am telling you I was so hooked on X Factor USA that these Final 3 contestants were actually my bets for their categories! I know that they were the good ones and I knew from the start that they would go far in the competition.

Chris Rene for LA Reid‘s Boys. Josh Krajcik for Nicole Scherzinger‘s Over 30′s. Melanie Amaro for Simon Cowell‘s Girls. My bet for Paula Abdul‘s Groups was Stereo Hogzz but were not really given that much chance to let them show their potential.

Overall, my bet to win the competition was Melanie Amaro. She has the voice that can rival that of Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey and Beyonce. Wow! I think everyone already know what a shoo-in she was when the Final 3 was announced.

Who was your bet to win the X Factor USA?

Kate and Kat axed!

Posted by Splotches on September 1, 2011 Comments Off

Kate Gosselin and her kids’ show Kate Plus 8 is leaving the airwaves. And theirs is not the only show saying bye-bye. Kat Von D‘s reality show LA Ink has also been canceled by TLC.

TLC has decided that the current season of ‘LA INK’ will be its last. The network is proud of what the series has accomplished in its four seasons, following Kat Von D’s journey as an artist from Miami to Los Angeles.
- TLC’s statement said

According to celebrity tattoo artist Kat Von D, she actually quit the show!

Whichever it is, both Kate and Kat will be off the air for now.

GLEEk no more!

I am no longer interested in GLEE. I stopped watching it when they started airing episodes with Santana kissing with Brittany. It’s just way out of the storyline already! Do they really need to show a scene like that when they know there are underage kids watching with the family?

And those gay scenes with Kurt, too? Rachel’s annoying voice? Plus all the unnecessary additions and guest stars and irrelevant scenes?

Never mind watching GLEE! I’d rather watch something else than waste my time with a show going down the drain.

GLEE Season 2 is on!

Glee Season 2

As you very well know by now, GLEE Season 2 will be premiering across the globe today. GLEEks like me were anticipating the new season for a lot of reasons. Mine would be this…

Lea Michele Charice GLEE

A face-off between Lea Michele’s Rachel Barry character against newbie Charice’s Sunshine Corazon!

We all know how great Lea is. She was superb as Rachel in Season 1. I am sure she’ll be as great as or probably better than in the first season. As for Charice, the Filipino singing sensation is making waves across the globe right now. I can’t wait to see her face-off with Lea in the first episode!

Are you watching?

Hugh’s blues

Hugh Laurie

Hugh Laurie, House himself, is going to record a blues album! Who knew he’s musically inclined in real life?

He is self-taught. According to a news report, Hugh will be recording the album with guest musicians from New Orleans. Joe Henry from Warner Music will be producing the album.

I am sure it will be a big hit in France where Hugh is more popular than George Clooney or Brad Pitt. I will buy this album as soon as it hit stores. I am a fan of Hugh, too!

O’s audience said ‘Oh!’

The 25th and final season of the Oprah Winfrey show made a huge splash during its premiere. The reason? Oprah herself will be bringing some 300 of her audience that day to an all-expenses-paid eight-day trip to Australia! She made the announcement and then introduced John Travolta, a licensed pilot, who came out of a mock-up Qantas Airways jet.

This was what the O had to say…

“I started to think about where would I most want to go. Maybe I should take all of you with me to the other side of the world … We’re going to Australia! We are going to Australia! You and you and you and you, are going to Australia!” she said.

Lucky audience, I tell you!

GLEE coming soon!

GLEE

GLEE will be opening its new season come September 22nd, if I am not mistaken. I read about it in an online celebrity blog and I am excited! I can’t wait to watch the Britney Spears episode. My guess is that they will sing Oops I did it again!

There was a rumor that they are going to air a Michael Jackson tribute, too.

Oooh… there’s so much to look forward to in Glee! Can’t wait!

America’s Next Top Model

Posted by Splotches on July 24, 2010 Comments Off

Americas Next Top Model

I wonder where the winners and runners-up of America’s Next Top Model are right now. I’ve seen a couple of them at the runway in almost every Project Runway’s season finale. But as for major media exposure, apart from that one who had a run-in with an actress and her family at an airport, you haven’t heard anything from any one of the winners.

It makes you wonder if Tyra Banks is doing something good for these women or she’s just giving them false hope. Can they really become top fashion models or will they be just one of the many who dreamt and fell short?

GLEE goes Gaga!

Posted by Splotches on May 27, 2010 Comments Off

If you haven’t seen the Lady Gaga episode of GLEE yesterday, you missed out on a lot of really good performances! I particularly love their Bad Romance performance. It’s so ferosh! I love it!!!

Here’s a video of the song. Too bad there’s no video of the actual episode segment. You should have seen how crazy their outfits were especially that of Kurt’s! Love it!

What do you think?

Damon on GQ

Another reason to buy GQ again…

IanSomerhalder-GQ

Ah, I do love Damon Salvatore!

Or Ian Somerhalder for you people who don’t watch The Vampire Diaries. Don’t you just find him oh so cute? If all villains look like him, I don’t think I’ll ever root for the hero!

GLEE Season 2

GLEE

GLEE Season 2 is on the 14th already! It’s just a few days away. I know there are a lot of GLEEks like me who are excited to watch the highly anticipated new season of this hit TV show. In fact, I know my sisters and my friends are all counting down the days until the season premiere.

Can’t wait! I’ve read the plans they have for the second season and the one I like the most is the Madonna episode. Madonna!!!

Watch the teasers for GLEE and see for yourselves.

Anderson Cooper

AC360

If there’s one TV personality that I am so in love with, it’s Anderson Cooper! I love the guy! He is brilliant and has so much integrity. I love watching his CNN show AC360. I also read his blog, follow him in Twitter, and even in his Facebook account.

I am not stalking him, okay? I am just a big fan! One Facebook friend even said that she’s also a fan. Well, who wouldn’t be, right? The topics he discusses in his AC360 are relevant and have so much sense unlike others like his.

Are you also a fan?

2010 Grammy Awards

Have you seen the 2010 Grammy Awards? All I can is…. wow! What an event! I am in awe of the opening number by Lady Gaga (featuring Elton John at the latter part of the number) and the one by Pink. Who would’ve thought Pink could go that sexy, huh?!? And Lady Gaga is undoubtedly the number 1 dance artist of the year. I don’t think Poker Face will die easily. It might take a year or two more before everyone stops singing it. Maybe not!

One poignant moment was the tribute to Michael Jackson and when his kids, Paris and Prince went up the stage to accept his posthumous Lifetime Achievement Award. Am I the only one who noticed how pretty those kids have become? Paris is like a mini-version of Nicole Richie! And Prince will surely break many girls hearts a few years from now. Such good-looking kids!

I just love the Grammys! But this year stole the thunder from any of the other ones. In my opinion, anyway.

My current choice: The Vampire Diaries

The Vampire Diaries by L.J. Smith.

I’ve read the books. I loved it! The story is not as page-turner as Twilight but not as cheesy.

Now, I’ve seen the pilot episode of the CW series and it’s not great but it’s okay. And enough to make the viewers come back for more episodes. The acting is way better than Twilight. Hands down. I love Rob Pattinson but I must admit, he’s nothing compared to Paul Wesley’s acting. Nina Dobrev is much, much better than Kristen Stewart’s acting. Of course, Ian Somerhalder is divine looking. Love him!

Can’t wait for episode 2!

Trueblood

Posted by Splotches on July 10, 2009 Comments Off

I don’t think I will be able to watch True Blood with anyone from the family. It is just too raunchy, to say the least. Imagine, the first scene alone has a woman rubbing a guy down there. Hahaha! I was shocked! No, I am not being prudent here. I just don’t know what to expect from the series. I am currently reading the first book in The Southern Vampire Mystery series by Charlaine Harris, the books from which True Blood is based on. The book is sexy but there was no first scene with a woman rubbing a man. Hahaha

My reaction was funny, I know. I am used to watching scenes like that. Back in college, out of curiosity, my friends and I would watch R movies once a month. Imagine how used I was to scenes more than just rubbing hehe

Anyway, I will continue watching but without anyone watching it with me.
