Hasta La Vista, Baby!!

Arnold Schwarzeneggar finally confessed to his wife that he slipped! He fathered a child some 14 years ago with a former housekeeper. He had an affair just as many of the testosterone driven actors or politicians or sports athletes have. Guess what?! Arnie was and/or is all three so that made hime three times more likely to have xtramarital affairs!

The sad thing is Shriver became pregnant at the very same time! What a scumbag Arnold was and is! I honestly feel very sorry for Maria Shriver who has been such a positive icon in this country. She has been a remarkable wife amd mother. She stood by her husband through many important key events. She is awesome. The Terminator on the otherhand...YOU'RE TERMINATED!!

Do You Know THE SECRET??

You all remember the great phenomena of "The Secret" when it came out years ago and special guests appeared on Oprah? Right? I mean, I was totally sucked in. I think it is a well done movie. I was reminded of this movie as I was browsing through my Netflix options. Yipee! The Secret appeared. What a reminder for me...to simply get back on track with being the me I want to be.

Oh whatever! You think I'm cooky when I say stuff like this. Call me whatever you want, but I love this stuff. I love this motivational, positive thinking, attitude of gratitude stuff. I love it. Yes! I do!

If you are a Netflix subscriber, I urge you to add The Secret to your Instant Queue and watch this film. I enjoyed it. Watch it with the kids. It's entertaining. At minimum, this movie will make you think about things. About your life, about your attitude and outlook on life. I'm going to have a "Secret" weekend as I review this movie once more.

Christina Aguilera Back in the Spotlight

If the blooper during the Super Bowl and the fall after a Grammy performance didn't do enough, a recent arrest of popstar Christina Aguilera surely did. She was arrested for being a drunk passenger to her boyfriend, Matt Rutler as the under the influence 25-year old driver. What is going on with this diva? I feel for her only because I have been a long time fan of hers since her breakout hit from Disney's Mulan "Reflection." She broke out of the Disney image so quickly and easily and that is not easy to do. She is a remarkable artist, a beauty, and now...well, a lush. That's being blunt.

BUT...I am still a big fan. C'mon, Christina! Get back on track! Slow down the bottle and get focused again! I'm rooting for ya!

Debbie Reynolds & Carrie Fisher on Oprah

In a beautiful interview on Oprah, Debbie Reynolds and her daughter, Carrie Fisher talk candidly about their past. I'm not that much of a Hollywood buff to know that they are related. Thanks for the enlightenment, Oprah. All I know is that Debbie Reynolds performs in Las Vegas once in a while, Carrie Fisher played the role of Princess Leia (whom I loved so much that I partly named my daughter Leia), and that they are icons in the celebrity industry.

So the story goes that Debbie Reynolds and her then husband were good friends with Elizabeth Taylor & her then husband, Michael Todd. Well, Michael died in a tragic plane accident. This left Taylor widowed. THEN what happened was...Eddie Fisher flew to Elizabeth Taylor's side (and as Carrie Fisher says, "then her front") and had an affair with her. And the story goes. Anyway, hopefully you had a chance to watch the interview.

Jennifer Hudson Looks Amazing

Jennifer Hudson appeared on a recent Oprah episode and revealed her amazing self before the world! She has lost weight and looks great. Her career is shooting off like fireworks. She is a (somewhat) new mommy. Her son David is now almost one & a half years young, born in August 2009.

Anyway, Jennifer has accomplished much for herself. Too bad Simon Cowell didn't see OR did he? Maybe he knew that American Idol would be small cake for her and that she was destined for bigger things. He didn't want her to be tied to an AI contract for years. She was ready to be let into the world for greater successes.

Whatever the case, Jennifer Hudson, you are an amazing woman! Good luck to you and your fiance, David Otunga and David, Jr. Wait, is there news of Baby #2 on the way? We'll see!

Get Into the Christmas Season...Christmas Flash Mob

Hallelujah were the sounds of this flash mob at a neighborhood mall. Some lunchers and shoppers and passers by received a glorious concert of the day...unexpected and beautiful. Heavenly. On pitch. Loved it myself. Being a former choir member myself, I recall this challenging Handel masterpiece. I even slipped at the end when the choir keeps singing "hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah..." etc. and I mishapped by singing an extra hallelujah. Luckily it wasn't loud enough for the conductor to back hand me.

Anyway, please click on this YOUTUBE link and be delighted for a few minutes and get yourself into the Christmas spirit.
