John McCain Spending $5,583.43 for an “American Idol” Makeup Artist

Here’s a change even Obama might believe in…

McCain recently spent over $5,000 for “American Idol” and “So You Think You Can Dance” makeup artist, Tifanie White to do his makeup.

I’m sure it probably wasn’t just for her makeup ability but hey nothings too good for a possible future president of the United States that is going to protect our financial stabilities.

Don’t get me wrong, I’d do that prehistoric dinosaur’s makeup for over $5,000 grand. But what I want to know is, what in the hell kind of makeup would you put on the man? I know most women who in their lifetime probably don’t even spend that much on makeup.

Yes, I know he’d understand if I skipped out on my mortgage payment to get me a $5,000 makeup job done to run for president of my book club.

The Purity Ring Controversy

At last Sunday’s MTV Video Music Awards the buzz and controversy were the jokes that host Russell Brand made about the purity rings that the Jonas Brothers wore.

For you non-virgins, a person that wears a purity ring is saving sex for marriage.

“I’d take them a little more seriously if they wore it on their genitals,” Russell Brand mocked.

A few celebrities were not so amused by the jokes, including American Idol alum, Jordin Sparks, who is a fellow purity ring wearer. She even noted in her acceptance speech “It’s not bad to wear a promise ring because not everybody, guy or girl, wants to be a slut.”

So is Jordin Sparks trying to say that people that are not wearing promise rings are sluts? If that’s the case, I just brought the sluttage meter over 100%. We’re all going to hell! I personally think purity rings are for people that will never get laid anyways.

Even more shockingly, Paris Hilton voiced support for fellow purity ring wearers. Does anyone see something wrong with this picture now?

Russel Brand later apologized. It must have been from the pressure of upsetting Paris Hilton. I probably would not have been able to sleep at night knowing I upset Paris Hilton.

Some other fellow celebrity purity ring wearers include: Hilary Duff, Selena Gomez & back in the day pre-Nick Lachey “Newlyweds” days, Jessica Simpson wore one.

How comforting!

Movie Theatre Seating

For those of us on a strict budget since gas prices have been skyrocketing, here’s a fun, personal way to watch the movies you want, when you want:

Creating your own home movie theater, complete with popcorn machine, home theater seating…and if you wanted to make a buck or two…charge people to come into your movie theater room to watch a movie. The best part, none of the screaming children that like to sneak into public movie theatres on the weekends and cause a ruckus.

David Archuleta’s New Single “Crush”

Take a listen to the new David Archuleta single. Daddy must be proud!

“American Idol” runner-up David Archuleta is teaming up with Rock Mafia Records, whose executives co-wrote and co-produced several songs on Miley Cyrus’ recently released album, “Breakout,” E! reports.

Just what we all need…a male Miley Cyrus. Altough I would find Archie’s topless photo scandals a bit more amusing.

Carrie Underwood’s New “Just A Dream Video”

This was the first song on her “Carnival Ride” album that really stuck out to me. So I’m sure her latest single and video “Just A Dream” will do very well.

Just wondering why they didn’t make the setting more modern to dedicate to our the families of soldier’s in the Iraq war instead of an old time setting like a Vietnam War.

Damn liberals! (Yeah…I don’t really know what this means except thats what my Dad yells when he’s watching political news and it’s not good news.)

Popular American Idol Reject Signs A Contract

American Idol Fans! Remember Josiah Leming from Hollywood week of this past season’s American Idol 7?

Josiah is probably by far the most popular contestant to not make it through Hollywood Week into the top 25. He’s proof that you don’t have to win American Idol to get a gig.

Simon Cowell has even admitted that Josiah should have made it to the final round. He voted for him to stay, but was turned down by Paula and Randy. Everything was going great for him during Hollywood week up until his last performance where he sang a very unprepared version of “Stand By Me” with no musical accompaniment.

There’s no telling how far Josiah would have went on the show, but that’s all a thing of the past now…

Josiah Leming has signed a publishing and recording deal with Warner Bros. Records. Since his departure from the show his MySpace page has gotten over three million views and his songs have been listened to more than two million times. His music is also available for purchase on his MySpace page.

“Josiah’s talent as a lyricist is one of the main reasons I signed him,” says Warner Bros. Records’ Senior Vice President of A&R Perry Watts-Russell. “All of his emotions go into his songs. He has an extraordinary gift for turning his experiences into art.”

“No matter what I have gone through, I have the same feelings every kid has,” Josiah says. “And I think I can put those feelings in such a way that they connect with people and help them get through their hard times. If my music can give others something they can express their emotions through, that’s the whole point.”

His album is set to be released this fall along with this season’s winner, David Cook and following right behind, runner up David Archuleta.

Shaq’s Freestyle Rap

TMZ has one-of-a kind video of Shaq verbally busting on former Lakers teammate Kobe Bryant at a New York club on Sunday night.

Shaq freestyle raps: “I’m a horse, Kobe ratted me out, that’s why I’m getting divorced.”

TMZ reports the quote to what what a police report quoted Kobe as saying during his 2003 sexual-assault case. Kobe “should have done what Shaq does . . . Shaq would pay his women not to say anything.”

Yeah, that would make me want to ask Kobe “how my ass tastes”

Then Shaq turned around and told ESPN he was joking. “I was freestyling . . . Nothing serious whatsoever . . . I’m totally cool with Kobe. No issue at all. Please tell everybody don’t make something out of nothing.”

Yes! Because I randomly scream how does my ass taste during sex all the time!

Love “The Love Guru”

 “The Love Guru” opened on Friday to the kind of reviews usually reserved for movies starring Larry the Cable Guy, not to mention an embarrassing 4th-place finish. Perhaps no one sunk the knife deeper than A.O. Scott in “The New York Times” who called it, “an experience that makes you wonder if you will ever laugh again.” Wonder if Myers turned and mugged for the camera after he read that one.

So this begs a few questions, the key one being…what the hell happened? Did Mike Myers suddenly become unfunny? Did our collective taste change? Is his new comic creation a little too familar (I’m going with this one)? Or is Justin Timberlake to blame?((1))

Oh let’s give Justin a break. He isn’t comletly hopeless when it comes to being in movies, but I know it’s hard to take him seriously after dancing around like a buffon in ‘NSync and all the diva-esque behavior when it comes to spilling about Jessica Biehl (come on, if I was banging her, I’d brag!) I don’t think Justin’s factor had much say in the movies bust, if anything…it helped with it’s success.

As for Mike Myers, after “Austin Powers” there’s really no way to top that.

What it might have something to do with is that fact that gas costs $4.00 a gallon and you need to take out a mortgage on your house to see a movie. One ticket alone is around $9.00, not to mention popcorn costs just as much and you can’t go to a movie and not get popcorn! Major oil companies must be taking fractional ownership over the movie buisness! Ah!

David Archuleta’s Dad Banned Backstage

So it looks like Monchichi David Archuleta’s Dad, Jeff Archuleta has been banned from American Idol rehearsals for being a nut rider. [News information from LexGo, Kenny Crookston AP Photo]

His “intense backstage involvement” is what got him banned. What really put the AI producers over the edge was the lyric change on last week’s show. David Archuleta’s performance of “Stand By Me” was altered with a line from Sean Kingston’s “Beautiful Girls” which costed AI copyright costs. Nevertheless, AI as popular as the show is and the producer’s are probably bathing in a tub of money as we speak, it was still a shiesty move on good ol’ Daddy’s part.

Either way, father dearest knows his son is a walking billion dollar industry after the AI season is over, he’s just trying to make sure he gets his piece of the pie and hopefully by father’s day he can win the “Father of the Year” title almost as deservingly as Dina Lohan won the “Mother of the Year” title.

Addicted to Ace Young

I’m officially obsessed!

Ace Young being interviewed by the WNCI 97.9 DJ’s

I went to an Ace Young impromtu concert a few weeks ago. For those of you that are not American Idol fiends, Ace Young was a contestant of the show two seasons ago. He’s very talented and not to mention very good looking! I wouldn’t mind having him sprawled out on a few of my down comforters in nothing but a smile.

If you listen to the actual audio recording of “Addicted” it sounds good, but if you hear him sing it live and acoustic it is GREAT!

Get David Archuleta In Your Pocket

This topic was brought up on forums online and after seeing the pictures I am a believer.

American Idol Fans, David Archuleta has a twin! Meet Monchici!

David Archuleta Monchichi

I kept saying from the beginning of watching American Idol that David was so cute I just wanted to make him into a keychain and carry him around in my purse. Well now I can go out and get my very own Monchichi doll and that will be just as fine.

While we’re on a David Archuleta topic… Has anyone ever noticed he’s not the most eloquent speaker in the world? I’m not expecting him to talk like a public speaker or anything but how is he suppose to get famous and do TV and radio interviews when all he can do is smile, laugh and say,

I don’t know…huhuhuhuhuhuh

David Archuleta is such a great singer, there’s no doubt in my mind that he will be a successful star, but for God’s sake, before all that happens, someone better get him the best PR people in the country or his next gig will be for Ladybug steam cleaners.

Music Monday

I used to use iTunes a lot to download music, but I just recently decided to switch to Amazon MP3 because it comes in MP3 format and after I pay for it it’s not a locked file like iTunes is and I can download music to put on my boyfriend’s MP3 player that is not necessarily iPods. Anything that I seem to download from iTunes can only go on an iPod and not everyone in the world has one.

So anyway, without further adieu…

Top 5 Song Pick’s of the Week

4 Minutes To Save The World1. “Four Minutes To Save The World” – Madonna ft. Justin Timberlake
I have been a Justin Timberlake fan since ‘NSync came onto the scene, so it’s only natural that he be on my #1 list. Madonna is a legend and Justin Timberlake is a musical genious, this was a great combination to do a song together. While I still don’t get why they have “Four Minutes To Save The World” but I recently herd that the song is four minutes long, so common sense tells me that might have something to do with it.

Buy “Four Minutes To Save The World” on Amazon MP3 - CD - iTunes

\"Bleeding Love\" Single2. “Bleeding Love” –Leona Lewis
I feel special because I downloaded this song on iTunes before it became the #1 downloaded song this week. The second I herd it, I loved it and I know this song will probably give Leona a great start to a very successful career here in America (she won the American Idol version of British Idol called X-Factor.) Most of the ladies out there will probably be able to relate to this song in some way so I predicted from the beginning that this song would be a hit.

Buy “Bleeding Love” on Amazon MP3 - CD - iTunes

\"When You Look Me In The Eyes\" Single3. “When You Look Me In The Eyes” – Jonas Brothers
My 12 year old cousin is obsessed with this band. Back in my days Hanson was the hot band, well the Jonas Brothers are probably a new age recycled version of Hanson. They sound so alike it’s creepy. Either way, this would be a great wedding theme song for the Summer. These brothers are pretty easy of the eyes so I guess that helps the personality of the song as well.

Buy “When You Look Me In The Eyes” on Amazon MP3 - CD - iTunes

\"Picture To Burn\" Single4. “Picture To Burn” –Taylor Swift
The opening lines of the song tell everything…”State the obvious, I didn’t get my perfect fantasy I realize you love yourself more than you could ever love me, So go and tell your friends that I’m obsessive and crazy, That’s fine; I’ll tell mine you’re gay…” Ha ha ha. Taylor Swift always has great songs that start out country and are worthy enough to spill over into the Top 40/Pop realm. She writes and plays her own music at only 16. There’s only one word for her…POWERHOUSE.

Buy “Picture To Burn” on Amazon MP3 - CD - iTunes

\"Super Girl\"5. “Super Girl” –Saving Jane
This song is fairly new and the band is from my hometown. So this week I’m representing “Girl Next Door” hit-sters Saving Jane. This song is featured on the Danica Patrick website and I’ve already added this song to my workout playlist and hope that this band gets the exposure and attention they desearve because they have great songs and the lead singer is georgeous!

Buy “Super Girl” on Amazon MP3 - CD - iTunes

American Idol Elimination Recap

It’s Wednesday night on American Idol which means cheesy group performances and shameless plugs and recaps.

Speaking of shameless plugs, I loved the smooth transitioning iTunes plug.

“I wake up every morning, pee in the shower, download American Idol iTunes to my iPod, and have breakfast…”

Ok no one really said that but seriously! Could their Coke and iTunes plug be just a little bit more obvious? You wouldn’t even need GPS to find the cheesy, obvious-ness of the shameless plugs that these poor kids suck at. I guess they work either way because I’m going to go download David Cook’s performances this weekend.

Chickezie was the first contestant selected to be in the bottom three, followed by Syesha.

Kimberly Locke was the featured performer for the night. She still looks amazing. She was one of my favorites in Season 2 when I first started seriously getting involved with American Idol. I did not like the song she sang though. It’s a country remake of the song “Fall” but I guess it was karma coming back to haunt Country music since Country music always takes popular Top 40 songs and twang it up. I hate remakes in general anyways but who’s really judging Kimberly Locke anyways, she’s already got a record deal.

Chickezie was eliminated. This means we must endure another week of Kristy Lee Cook performances. God help us all.
