American Idol
 
Yes I’m really loving American Idol it’s really entertaining but I just think the little cat fights that Nicki and Mariah be having are just hyped up too much! Her walk out just seemed so staged to me especially when Mariah said “ooh I told her I wanted to be the one to storm out” and Nicki said “shut the f up”. And Mariah was just calm about it, you know that would never happen because Mariah is tryna put the “a” in diva! Nicki’s outfits her too outrageous and crazy but that blonde wig don’t look that bad on her compared to the other wigs. The make up she has on looks like she auditioning too auditioning to be a corpse with that casket ready makeup she has on! Mariah looked really blah to me she barely had any make-up on! Even Randy Jackson had on more make-up then her and did y’all see Mariah putting that make-up on him? That gave me so much life! Mariah’s attire I didn’t pay too much attention too which is a bad thing because I love fashion! But Wendy Williams gon say Mariah needs to change up her look some more cuz when JLO was on there she had more of a versatile look every time you saw her! I didn’t watch it when JLO was a judge but she does have some great fashion let me just SAY IT! But Mariah is a legendary experienced singer and she may not dress as well as JLO but she can sing BETTER THAN HER! Let’s talk about the contestants that stood out to me! The girl with the crutches she sang and did not let that car accident mess up her chance to audition for American Idol! I really liked the lady with the little girl who’s boyfriend got into a car accident people like her really inspire me! The girl who auditioned before but got eliminated was great I KNOW she’s gonna go far! The guy who was anti-social really surprised he really can sing. I hope he becomes confident and comes out of his shell. The girl that was from New Orleans and song at a bar/restaurant! She had a lot of soul to be a blue eyed girl! And the most memorable one to me was the guy that song Maxwell Whatever Whatever Whatever that song is so incredible to me! That was my review of American Idol I’m gonna try to write down the names and descriptions of the contestants for my next review!

Scandal

Let me just say I had heard about this show and even watched like one or two episodes but today I got caught up in guess what a Scandal! The acting and writing in this show is EVERYTHING! Shonda Rimes let me just say you have a hit TV show! Shonda Rimes is the successful African American creator of the other hit TV show Grey’s Anatomy! But unlike Grey’s Anatomy Scandal is based on a true story which makes it even crazier! Let’s get into the latest episode! I’m gonna watch it as I review it so I don’t miss anything! It starts off with Olivia and Fitz telling her he didn’t kill Amanda. She says she doesn’t wanna talk about her because she feels hurt that he cheated on his mistress with his girlfriend. He surprisingly says it was just a slip up she was not his girlfriend and tells Olivia to NOT DARE say she’s a mistress. Then he tells her about this recording that got leaked. Then they start with the flashbacks some people really aren’t hear for it but I actually LOVE the flashbacks. It’s two years ago when they first started working together on his campaign. She says it looks like he doesn’t screw his wife and that they need to portray the lovey dovey husband and wife to secure the republican vote. And I was thinking the same thing him and his wife are very distant if I didn’t know any better I would think they were strangers. At first Fitz is mad and fires her but realizes she is exactly what his campaign needs. They show when Amanda was working with the Fitzgerald campaign then they show her dead in the morgue. The guy investigating gets on the phone to call his partner to tell her that they’re working late. Cyrus and Olivia talk to Fitz and Mellie about her distant they are. They have an argument about how she gave up everything to help support his career and he says don’t act like you don’t wanna be in the white house. He ends up saying you need to stop saying this isn’t a dead marriage. During his campaign they continue to do whatever they can to show that they are a couple in love. The other candidates are getting ticked off that they are losing votes to Fitzgerald. They would’ve won but allegations of Mellie having an affair surfaced and cost them votes. I just love how Columbus Short just showed up at that guy’s apartment and blackmailed him to stop the allegations of Mellie having an affair. Whew Harrison is to sexy! During a debate Fitz gets asked about his marriage and how distant they were and he says that “he is in love with an incredible woman”. The camera just focuses right on Olivia when he says that and you know he’s talking about her. They know they have feelings for each other especially in the scene when they are in the hallway for a second I thought they were about to kiss then his wife comes out! I knew she had to have known they had something going on. To help Fitz get the women’s vote Mellie claims that she had just had a miscarriage! She claims that the reason why they’ve been so distant with one another. Let me just say that I don’t like his wife she is so manipulative and vindictive. You can tell she was lying cause when she gave him a hug she said “let should take care of it”. They claim they have two other children but why don’t they ever show them? That’s so unrealistic. They show Olivia and Fitz having a conversation on the bus where Olivia says she’s sorry about his lost. He tells her how Mellie lied and that there was no miscarriage. He goes on to say how he doesn’t wanna complain about his wife and they START TO FLIRT! He tells her to say my name and she says that’s inappropriate and he replies well let’s be inappropriate! She calls him Fitz and they start holding hands! I KNEW they were gonna sleep together because you could cut the sexual tension with a knife. When he was telling her to go to her room I knew she wasn’t because she was hesitating too much! The love scene was everything it was hot with a capital H! As the love scene ends you can see that there is someone recording them. The recording gets delivered to this guy that I think killed Amanda! Fitz and Olivia listen to the recording and realize that it’s them! They wonder why someone would send this to Cyrus 2 years later and realize that they needed Amanda Tanner. Matthew goes to Sally with the recordings but she basically tells him to shove it and that she has just excepted Grant’s offer of becoming his VP. Fitz and Olivia together for their signature one minute and she starts to cry because she’s in love with him but they can’t be together. The ending made me mad the stupid journalist should’ve known better then to have that guy he’s accusing of murder in his apartment. I really hope he’s not dead! Can’t wait until next week!

Spartacus: War of the Damned


As you Spartacus fans know Spartacus War of the Damned premieres this Friday January 25th on Starz! And you have no idea how happy and excited I am about seeing this premiere. I JUST STARTED watching last season which was called Spartacus Vengeance! My family and I are totally hooked on this incredibly epic series. My favorite character is Crixus I think he is the sexiest gladiator on the show! And I love him and Naevia they are my favorite couple on the show! I called that moment when she killed Ashur NO LIE! So look out for my reviews of the new Spartacus season! I have uploaded a trailer of the upcoming season from youtube!  I DO NOT OWN THIS VIDEO!
Let’s get into this long awaited season of Spartacus War of the Damned. It starts out with Spartacus on this horse fighting all these men. Which he incredibly butchered the special effects are definitely on point! They do stab Spartacus horse but when the rest of the gladiators come out and they kill everyone but two get away. Spartacus takes the eagle on the sword and smashes the guys face! That was so crazy, gore, and violent! But I loved it! Their army is just wonderful I love how they went and let slaves free, trained them, and let them be in their army! Crixus is lookin pretty sexy with his long hair and beard! I love how Naevia has transformed I knew she would be stronger in this episode but she exceeded my expectations! I guess Crixus did teach her how to cleave a man's head of his shoulders in a single blow! I loved that scene between her and Crixus when she told him she would never be from his side! I knew Gannicus and that girl with the blond hair was gonna hook up that scene was so crazy! They have a four some Saxa, Gannicus and two other women! The sex is definitely on and poppin again! It was so awkward watching this with my family. The new Romans are a trip I look forward to seeing more of them. I actually like Crassus better than Glaber! I love the conversation between Gannicus and Spartacus had about how he keeps wanting to kill more Romans but he killed Glaber should be happy and move on! Spartacus says a thousand lives would not equal Sura’s! Gannicus tells him how he loved Melitta and how he understands how he wants the woman he loves back. He also reveals that it was Oenomaus wife! The ending was indeed epic I love how Spartacus went to them! Crixus was just like a beast taking out guys and the Romans were indeed scared and surprised! I LOVED how he chopped their heads off and wants to show the Romans as a scare tactic. Marcus should've killed that guy! He claims he will make a statue of him but we’ll see! Anyway can’t wait til the next episode!


I have always struggled with my weight however just because you fall off the wagon it’s never too late to get back up and try again. I believe that dieting as in just cutting back on what you’re eating is the BIGGEST part of losing weight. Exercising just helps the weight come off quicker. My goal is to lose about 20 minutes by March. I will continue to post tips and advice on diet and fitness. I got this pic from mydochub.com! I DO NOT OWN THIS PIC!

There are several tips for losing weight but these are the best tips that I follow on a daily basis.

Exercise in the morning for about 20-30 minutes
Eat a whole grain cereal with 2% milk
For lunch eat a sandwich on 100% whole wheat bread
Eat 2 or 3 pieces of fruit and vegetables
STAY AWAY FROM SUGARY AND SALTY SNACKS
Exercise again for a hour or more
Drink 5 or 6 bottles of water
Eat baked or boiled foods for dinner


I have ton of favorite TV shows including General Hospital, Love & Hip Hop NY & ATL, The game, Boardwalk Empire, Basketball Wives Miami & LA, Spartacus, Real Housewives of Atlanta, Braxton Family Values, American Idol, and True Blood to name a few. I absolutely love True Blood I’m completely obsessed with the show! My favorite characters are Alcide, Eric, Sam and Bill. I will be posting my reviews on my blog as long as their in season. I will also be trying new shows and giving my review on them as well.
Dreams:

I have so many dreams and aspirations for myself I don’t know where to start. I have wanted to be a professional writer since I was about 10 years old. I was always a great writer and knew this was the perfect profession for me. My dream is to write my autobiography, along with other books and to write for one of my favorite TV show. I love to read my favorite authors are Terry McMillan, L.Divine, and Zane. I have written a few fiction stories in my day, and will continue to do so with this blog. So look out for that!
News & Gossip Destiny’s child Nuclear/Love song album Let me just say that when I heard DC were reuniting I had mixed feelings I was happy because I am a huge fan but I feel like they only wait until Beyonce is done with her solo projects. As far as I knew Kelly was steal releasing singles and I thought Michelle was working on another album or play. But I digress I heard the song Nuclear and it’s pretty good DC did their thing on it but I do not like it as a first single. It’s more like a song that was on one of the other DC albums that’s pretty good but wasn’t picked to be released as a single. The love song album is totally unnecessary why release songs that we already have! Most of which I listen to on a daily basis Killing Time that’s the jam one of my favorites by DC along with Temptations, If You Leave feat. Next, T-Shirt, Emotion, Love. It’s set to be released January 29th I don’t know about you but I won’t be buying this album. If DC is not gonna give us an album with all original music then don’t give us an album at all! NO SHADEZ
Kim and Kanye’s baby
This will be a short and sweet post. I am not a Kim Kardashian fan at all I think she’s a media whore that has and will do anything to keep her name floating in the media. I’ve always felt pretty numb when Kim and Kanye started dating if they’re dating for real or just for publicity I never cared to know. And I feel the same way finding out that Kim was pregnant. I hope they end up getting married and having a thousand MORE! But the one thing I will say is I heard she was still “legally” married to Kris Humphries and I’m thinking why oh why won’t she end this fake marriage. Everybody knows the damn marriage was fake just admit it and get a divorce. This is another reason why I don’t like Kim Kardashian she is so fake. Hopefully her and Kanye’s relationship will last cuz I’m not checking her him she can have Kanye West, Lamar Odom, and Kris Humphries! NO SHADEZ

Beyonce’s documentary
As you may have all heard that Beyonce has a documentary premiering on HBO in February, I think the documentary was a great idea but I along with a lot of her fans want her to give us some insight about her that we don’t already know. Show us how you balance your career and being a new mother. Do you have a nanny? Does Blue Ivy sleep through the night? Do you grocery shop? We know you struggle with how much you want to reveal to the world but revealing things like that wouldn't hurt! Beyonce just showing us the behind of the scenes of her hardworking, successful, career is just not enough! NO SHADEZ

The Golden Globes The Golden Globes was this Sunday and it was pretty good I haven’t watched it since Octavia Spencer won for the movie the Help. The hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler were great they kept me laughing and entertained the whole night! I think they should host again next year comedians make the best hosts. The main winners that interested me were Quentin Tarantino, Anne Hathaway, Lena Dunham from Girls, Don Cheadle, Ben Affleck, and Huge Jackman! Congratulations to all the winners! I didn’t see Les Miserables, Argo, or Girls. But I heard that they were amazing. Anne Hathaway I’ve been a fan of since the Princess Diaries and I think she has come a long way. Don Cheadle is another actor who I’ve been a fan of for a while he’s a great actor and I’m happy for his win as well. I watched the movie Django and while I agree it was a great film at times it didn’t seem realistic. Historically some things weren’t portrayed accurately throughout the film but congrats to Quentin Tarantino. The fashion was great my favorites were Jennifer Lopez, Tina Fey, Anne Hathaway, Halle Berry, and Sofia Vergara! NO SHADEZ

American Idol
This season I can tell is gonna be crazy I LOVE Mariah Carey being on this season she's a legend with experience! Why is Nicki Minaj, Keith Urban or Randy Jackson even on American Idol! Nicki has made so many mistakes and flops and had NO experience to judge anyone! Randy is BORING and Keith Urban doesn’t seem to have mind of his own! To tell you the truth the show would be so much better if it was Ryan Seacrest, Nicki Minaj, and Mariah Carey as the judges. Ryan could be the host and the judge! I’m really enjoying it can’t wait til next week! NO SHADEZ

The inauguration was just spectacular I loved everything about it and watched the whole thing! Barack, Michelle, Sasha and Malia all looked incredible. I loved the blue coat Michelle had on and the different shades of purple the girls wore. Malia wore a magenta J. Crew coat which is the same designer she wore for the 2009 inauguration. Sasha wore a purple Kate Spade coat. They started out going to church which I thought was very important because God is definitely blessing the Obamas with this incredible opportunity. Beyonce sung the Star Spangled Banner and she tore it up she did an amazing job I really liked her black ball gown she had on but those green earrings had to go! I recently heard the controversy about her “supposedly” lip syncing but I seriously don’t believe it! We all know Beyonce is an incredible singer everyone needs to just stop hating on her. When he was sworn in he did an excellent job. The speech was so uplifting I had so many emotions I even teared up. I love how he talked about equal rights for everyone and that no one should be denied the same rights we give others. He mentioned the gays which I thought was appropriate of him, since he was the first president to openly support gay marriage. Here’s a link to him giving the speech if you would like to hear it again. It’s from youtube.com I DO NOT OWN THIS VIDEO!

The ball was great I loved Jennifer Hudson singing Al Greens song Let’s stay together! She looked incredible people say that she’s lost too much weight but I think she looks great! The dress Ms. Obama wore was just amazing I love the fact that she chose to wear a red dress. I believe it was by Jason Wu he’s an Asian designer I really love the dress! The entertainment was great this has got to be the most star studded inauguration ever! Alicia Keys was pretty good I wasn’t really giving her my undivided attention like that but she looked great. I really like how she changed the words of her song Girl On Fire to Obama on Fire. Stevie Wonder was great too but you could tell he had just come up with that song! Barack Obama has made history again and I just love him for giving us change. NO SHADEZ

RHOA Season 5 episode 12
This episode was pretty good. Cynthia going to that hair show was great I’m glad she’s doing her thing. Why she invited Kenya to come I don’t know she is so thirsty for attention it’s a shame. Derek J and Miss Lawrence looked outrageous as usual I still like Derek J but Miss Lawrence is just kissing Kenya’s butt too much! He seems to think she can do no wrong! Kandi goes to Derek J to get her hair done but it seems like he didn’t do anything to it that wasn’t already done! She finds out from him that Kenya is doing her own Stallion booty workout tape and calls and tells Phaedra. Many people thought Kandi was being messy but I don’t her and Phaedra are friends and she should’ve told her what Kenya was up to! Phaedra starts to FINALLY READ KENYA for what she is she says “I knew that girl was thirsty but I didn’t know she was starving”. I did agree with Kenya about Phaedra not wanting to give her 10% and complaining about it costing 100,000 but Kenya is so wrong for stealing Phaedra’s idea! Phaedra goes to see the people who did James Fonda tape and says now we’re dealing with A list people. I don’t know why for the life of me why Phaedra was even working with Kenya’s straight to DVD production team especially with how Kenya was flirting with Apollo! Even after that she continued to defend Kenya I agree with Portia on that Phaedra why are you surprised the business deal didn’t go well with this crazy chick! Cynthia hosts a charity event with a little kids fashion show to benefit HIV and was it me? Or did she seem just a little too serious no one is looking for these kids to bring it like Naomi Campbell. The fashion show takes place and all the kids look so cute they even showed T.I. and Tiny’s little boy Major in the fashion show! Apollo carries little Aidan out and Phaedra is so proud! I do agree that he was a little small to be in it but Cynthia went ahead and allowed it! He was cute! The last part is the showdown between Kenya and Phaedra over the donkey booty workout! I think everyone who SUDDENLY agreed to Kenya’s stallion booty idea or the donkey booty is so fake! Kandi was the only real one and I love how she brought it up to Kenya unlike the other girls. I know this is long but please read it and LEAVE A COMMENT! NO SHADEZ
