I Think She's Lost It

'I got the total package you know, the curves, the rhythm, and the voice. I'm just the best"

  The above quote is from Miley Cyrus. She did an interview with a magazine called LOVE and in it she said that Beyonce was done and its now her (Miley's) time to be on top. She said that Beyonce has lost her focus and her body since having her child and that now she (Miley) is stepping up to take over....
   Okay, so before I get started let me say this. I'm not writing this post because I'm a huge Beyonce fan and feel like I need to defend her. In truth, I don't really care for Beyonce. I like some of her music and think she is a great entertainer, but I'm not a fan. I'm also not a fan of Miley, but she's just starting to bug the crap out of me. Also, let me say that I understand this is part of her "marketing" campaign/gimmick to keep people talking about her and in writing this post I'm falling right into the trap...oh well, I'm going to write and post this anyway.
    I don't care how much I don't care of an entertainer I will admit when they do something well. Beyonce does what she does well. At this point in time she is probably the best at putting on a non-stop thrill ride of a live show. She does the singing, dancing, costume changes, hair whipping and fan crazing all while wearing 5 inch heels...there's no one, right now, who can come anywhere close to that. Certainly not Miley. Here's the thing about the quote above...she only has no of the things she's claiming she has. That's the voice. Miley Cyrus can sing. If you don't believe me, that's fine. But if you take anyway the bad music and ridiculous lyrics and give her real songs to sing you'll see that she has a lovely powerful, even compelling voice. But she has no curves to speak of and as far as I've seen she ain't got no rhythm either. And that's what makes the quote all the more ridiculous.
    She wants to compare herself to Beyonce and say that she's ready to take the throne from her...but she can't hold a candle to Beyonce. I don't care if Beyonce is on stage with Blue Ivy in her arms she's still going to put on a better show and have more curves and rhythm).
    Before I wrap this up I want to say that earlier this month Beyonce released a surprise album. No one knew it was coming there was no build up, no advertising, no commotion. She just released an album one morning (alone with 17 new videos) and let go do it's thing. As far as I know she still hasn't do any interviews for it. You know what, that album went to Number 1 in a matter of hours worldwide...who else can do that. Not Miley, that's for sure.
    So Miley, please stop. You're embarrassing yourself. Beyonce is still on the top of her game baby or no. Her music is still selling, her shows are still slaying and her body is still banging...all you have is a bad haircut. So, just stop....please!

    Until Next Time

My New Favs

  I was going to write this post about my new favorite futbol couple, but the wind was all knocked out of me and I'll just keep this short and sweet.


   I LOVE Posh and Becks...but I think of them more as a celebrity couple than a futbol couple...but my love for them is not diminished in the least. My new futbol couple is Coleen and Wayne Rooney of England. He plays for Manchester United (Becks' old team) and the English National Team and she's a supreme shopper, journalist, TV presenter, design and new mom. She's got a wonderful sense of style and they are just so cute together.


   And they are my new Favs!

Doesn't matter if your Fat or Skinny...

I love Victoria Beckham. I love her style and I love the way she carries herself. I think that she is a great lady in the way that she knows how to dress for the appropriate situation whether she's meeting the queen or walking through the park with her husband. Many people would probably be surprised that I like her, but if you really know me, it wouldn't surprise you! I long for the days when people actually got dressed up to go out of their house, whether it be to run to the market or to go out to dinner. There was a time where women dressed and acted like ladies and men dressed and acted like gentlemen. I miss that time, but I admire people like David and Victoria Beckham for bringing a little of that class back into this society of dressing like a ho and pimp!

Now, there is one thing that people would find offensive about Victoria...she's super skinny. Yes she is...funny thing, it never bothered me that she's so small. I never thought about it like that. I never saw past the great outfit to see what size was shown on the labels.

I'm not skinny and I've never been skinny. I don't think I ever will be and I don't strive to be! I strive to be happy....happy within myself and the body, personality and traits I've been given. I can't buy the clothes (size or designers) that she can, but I can hold myself up like a lady.

I don't consider myself fat, although others may, I am overweight, chunky, hefty even. But I'm not fat. Am I happy with the size I am? Sometimes I am, sometimes I'm not, most times I don't care. I do care if I'm healthy though. I don't always make the right decisions on what I do or eat, and if I did I may not be the size I am, but I may not be much smaller than I am now either.

We have such a false sense of beauty in this country that striving for what we see around us will destroy us! Shouldn't we be striving to be happy with ourselves? There are women and men who work out everyday and will never be a size smaller than 10. Not because they don't take care of themselves, but because their body isn't the stereotypical type.

I have a co-worker who's going on a new health plan. I'm happy for her, but I've been trying to make sure she's doing it for the right reasons...mainly for herself. Not because of what other people think she should do or look like. She's not fat by any means, but she's not happy with certain parts of her body and she wants to fix them. Good for her! I'm glad for her and will do my best to be encouraging! I've been doing the same for someone else that I work with. She wasn't happy and decided to do something about it. I try to encourage her with my humor and wit. I will continue to do this until she doesn't need it anymore. But I think everyone needs some encouragement.

To me it doesn't matter if you're fat or skinny as long as your happy. I can understand people wanting to be healthy, you can be healthy and large...you can be skinny and very healthy, but ultimately you have to be happy within yourself. Because if you're happy you won't care what the world says you should be. Besides if you look around you'll see that most of people who try to tell you what you should be really aren't happy with themselves!

Did Adam Lambert Go Too Far?

Now, I only watch American Idol the first two weeks of the show...that's when all the bad singers are on! After that I'm done, I don't watch or worry about it in any way or form! I wouldn't know who Adam Lambert was if it hadn't of been for my cousin who loves him and watched American Idol hoping he would win it all! Well he didn't, she said it was rigged...it went to someone else, whatever!

Still I didn't care, couldn't give two cents to care...until my brother showed me his album cover (which is totally ripped off from Boy George) and I was mildly interested in what this guy was gonna come up with next! But not that much because I could have watched him on on the American Music Awards last weekend, but I chose to go to sleep instead!

The next morning I wake up to the knowledge that he pulled off some kind of inappropriate performance full of sex, violence and risque behavior not suitable for kids, Dick Clark Productions or the House of Mouse (owner of ABC). I couldn't believe what I was hearing and I couldn't watch it on the net, so I asked around...only one person could tell me what it was about and I agreed with her...inappropriate! The next day, I heard more about it in the media and I decided to look for in on the net...it's since been taken down. So I haven't seen it....but I did see something in a headline...why are we getting so up in arms about Adam Lambert in 2009 when we didn't care about Britney and Madonna and Christina a few years ago?

I surely didn't care then and I don't really care now, but I know that if I was a parent of a teen or preteen I would have been appalled that this form of entertainment (remember I haven't seen it, this is all from what I've heard) was available for my kid during a very superficial award show.
But I'm not a parent and I didn't see it....so all I have is hear say from all over...so like the title of this post I have one question...Did Adam Lambert go to far?

What's your opinion? How do you feel about the whole situation? Did he indeed go to far or am I and the media making too big a deal about it?

So Many Things I Want to Say!!!

I've been thinking about several different topics I want to write about. Some very personal, some social and some just celebrity gossip nonsense. I decided to list them below...and I will post a topic in detail on each one, but I just don't have the time at this moment. Over the next week, I will complete the thought(s) I have on each topic.


1. Why aren't I married yet?

2. Did Adam Lambert go too far?

3. New Moon movie review.

4. Doesn't matter if your fat or skinny as long as your striving to be your best.

5. Holding on to what doesn't matter.

6. Thanksgiving!

7. Happiness is a choice!

Seven days, seven topics...I should get started. See ya later! And enjoy!

So much to say so little time!

So my life has been slowly moving along since the last time I posted...it's been over a month and I've basically been taking it easy! There have been some changes, and I'll talk about those, but for the most part I've been gone because I'm been...chillin!


In September I decided to devote my Saturdays to college football, one team in particular, the Florida Gators! So my Saturday's have been put on hold for the next few months...basically I'm not doing anything with my weekend except for lying around in bed waiting for either the game to start or the nachos to finish (not really, the nachos thing was only last week). Since I'm not sleeping in on Saturdays I'm doing it on Sundays and before I know it it's Monday again! It's not a bad plan, just not the wisest one either, but hey I'm having fun!


I am in the middle of my first stint of Jury Duty, I have been placed on a Jury Panel and will go back on Wednesday to find out if my future lay in the courtroom or at work (basically I'll find out if I've been placed on the Jury!). I will tell you more about that this coming week, but I will say that I'm enjoying my experience and find it all very interesting!



Well, things at work have changed! I have a new boss, her name is Grace! My former boss moved out of state to pursue a new venture in her career. Grace has been here for 3 weeks and the changes I've seen and felt are so grand that I don't know if I can properly describe them! The truth is, she's great and I'm so comfortable and happy that the smile I paint on my face is actually a truthful reaction to how I'm really feeling. I'm not just putting a smile on my face and crying on the inside. That's how I used to feel! Everyday was a walk through hellfire and brimstone! I would come to work and literally as I got closer to the floors I work on, my stomach would begin to ache, I could feel my stress level rise and I just didn't know what to do about it.


I think God has been with me this whole time, I mean he bought me to this place and he never left me, even when I felt completely alone! Now, there are no stomach aches, I feel better about my co-workers (most) and about being open to give my suggestions, comments or complaints! I don't feel like I have to stifle myself to fit in, I can be me. I've been encouraged to be me, that's the most refreshing part about it!

Things have changed and I am now wholeheartedly enjoying my job! Now all I need is a raise!


Ok, so I wrote about trying to get through "A Purpose Driven Life" this summer, well not surprisingly, I didn't get very far. I do have to say that this summer was not a good one for me. I was pulling away from everyone, I wasn't being a good friend and I just didn't really see the point (well, I did, but I wasn't ready!). I'm not saying that I'm ready now, but I do see God and I have this nagging ache to help the world around me. I want to make an impact on others...not only because God told me to, but because if I don't who will? I owe it to the people I love and the world around me to reach out and try my best to make this world we call home a better place! Will you help me?


And finally, the two most trivial...I've become slightly obsessed with Facebook and I can no longer be called the celebrity gossip go to person by my friends! I can't even get halfway thru the OK Magazine crossword puzzle anymore....I'm disappointed, but now I can focus on more important stuff!


Until Next Time!

The Round Up

Okay, so there's lots of stuff going on in the world of celebrity and I've been slowing giving up reading about celebrities and their craziness...but there are a few comments I'd like to make... so here we go...



I'm glad Britney is trying to get her stuff together, but the girl CAN'T drive...I guess we should be happy the kids weren't in the car this time.



Mariah Carey married Nick Cannon....hummm, why? No really...can anyone tell me why?


Tom Cruise is still crazy...Katie we need to break her out of prison!


New Kids On The Block will being "HANGIN TOUGH" in a city near you soon. Dude, if I had the money I'd so be there (I wonder if my parents would buy me tickets like they did when I was younger?)


Two words.....James McAvoy


Angelina and Brad are having twins....and she's in a movie this summer with the guy above.


Humm, is it just me or are the Lakers good this year?


Why So Serious? Are you gonna go see it? are ya?


Why is Lauren Conrad famous? Just wondering


Tons of bands are giving away their music for free, now Metallica is thinking about doing the same thing with their next album...what? are these the same guys who sued Napster because their music was being downloaded for FREE? Pot/Kettle!


Amy Winehouse, great talent, I pray that she has people around her who can get control of her like Britney's peeps did. It's so sad to see her wasting away.


NEWS FLASH: Tom Cruise is still CRAZY!


And finally Girls Allowed is on tour, everywhere but here, but they don't release their music in the US, they need to though...our music here sucks...we have to wait years for anything good to come out. And I've pretty much given up on radio. If I hear another "drop yo booty to the flo" "your sexy, take off yo drawls" record, I'm gonna to be very angry!


Tune in next time when we discuss, the craziness of Tom Cruise!

Perez Hilton

Has easily saved me thousands of dollars. I used to buy tabloid magazines weekly, like 3 to 4 a week! But since I have discover his site not only have I stopped buying the mags, I have actually found that he has things up on his site days, even weeks before the tabs print them!
So thanks to you Perez Hilton for being a fun read and for saving me tons of money!

bbc america

So, it's been so long since I've written, so far I have told you about my new boy, my new husband, sent a shout out to my NASCAR man and told you about my music, books and movie. So what do I have left. Well just some random musings....let's get started!


Brittney Spears is CRAZY and sadly maybe her kids should be taken from her.

I feel sorry for Lindsey Lohan. No one has ever told her no, in fact they have probably all told her it's okay, because she's young famous and pretty. oh yeah, and her dad is crazy, but has anyone taken a look at her mom and seen how she's using ALL of her children (not just her eldest) to further her career? I think Linds needs a hug, a real one from someone who's not going to use her to get what they want.

Someone slap Nicole Richie with a sandwich!

Tom Cruise is scary.

Ringing Bros. and Barnum and Bailey's circus is the Greatest Show on Earth.

Kobe should be traded and Michael Vick should be put in jail and made to fight guys twice his size everyday single day, while the guards beat him with batons and dogs watch.

I like big butts and I cannot lie....you other brothers can't deny!

There is no need for David Beckham to play any football, he can just stand in the middle of the field with his shirt off and I'll be happy.

I am addicted to BBC America, I love Footballer's Wives, and MI-5..

My Bologna has a fist name it's O-S-C-A-R
My Bologna has a second name it's M-A-Y-ER
I love to eat it every day and if you ask me way I'll say....

You other's brother can't deny, cause when I girl walks in with an itty bitty waist and a round thing in yo face you get sprung!

with B-O-L-O-G-N-A!


Have a good weekend everyone!

My New husband has arrived, let the staking begin!

Congratulations to Me

I have finally got a Digital Camera, not the one on my phone a real one. So I can put pictures on the Internet! I'm going to try and set up a flicker account...(good luck) but soon you will be able to see what I'm seeing and doing in my life...and now I have a camera to use when I become a paparazzi (but that's not until summer when the Beckhams arrive!)

Britney

has lost her mind, I think we should all pray for the saftey of her children.





oh yeah and by the way, congratulations to Kevin Harvick for stealing the Daytona 500 from Mark Martin...don't worry I'm not britter...okay maybe a little

When asked what he'd like to hear God say when he got to the pearly gates, Matt Damon said...


"all of the suffering that you saw or heard about or knew was happening, there was a point to it and if you come in the back I'll tell you all about it."


Just something for you to think about.

Britney and Kevin

I'm sure you've all heard and probably don't care but the Federlines have called it quits. Actually Brit called it quits and Kevin is lost without her money.
I know divorce is bad, but I think its time for the old skinny, booty shakin, middriff showing Britney to come back and give us a new song so we can shake our bootays!
I just hope their divorce doesn't get dirty like Pauls.
Well until next time...
