According to Paula's Twitter page, she is officially done with American Idol. I don't know if that is just a publicity stunt or if she is really not coming back. As long as they replace her with someone who seems like they have similar perscription/alcohol trouble... the show should be fine.
I'm thinking maybe Janice Dickinson who calls herself "the world's first supermodel," or maybe Drew Carey. He seems to have done a good job with The Price Is Right. I can't wait to see what happens. :)
Paula Abdul has recently been making a stink about renewing her contract for Season 9 of American Idol. She is holding out for more money... so far. So I have stopped wondering "if she is coming back" and have been thinking "would Idol survive without Paula?"
Here's the deal. During the season, I think a good size chunk of Idol fans don't really care what goes on with the music... they just want to see what the judges will say. Everybody loves to have Simon and his blunt comments. People probably watch Randy because they like the term "dawg." And Paula... she is simply a train-wreck on the TV.
I think the show would still be a big hit, but things would probably suffer without her. UNLESS... they found a SUPER-MESSED UP star to take her place or maybe just someone without a bone of talent in their bodies. (May I suggest the Jonas Brothers for the talentless judges?) Who would you want to be the replacement judge if Paula leaves the show?
By now, I'm sure you have heard Beyonce's song Halo. Well, if you like that song... then you are sure to like the latest from Kelly Clarkson called Already Gone.
Perhaps this can explain the situation: Both Kelly and Beyonce had OneRepublic's Ryan Tedder produce the songs in question. Kelly says that he used the same music track for both songs. Tedder denies this and answers, "...they are two different songs conceptually, melodically, and lyrically..."
Listen for yourself... is one song a rip off of the other? Let me know what you think.
I can pretty much sing Halo over the music to Already Gone... but that's just me.
My mouth is on FIRE!! I decided to try the Lay's Flamin' Hot potato chips. WOW. I probably should have figured that they were quite strong since there is large a jalapeno pepper on the bag, but I figured I was strong enough to handle it. Boy was I wrong!! My suggestion... if you like to live your life on the wild side... try these chips. If you are lame and bland - stick with the plain or the maybe the ridges.
At the All-Star game last week, president Obama had the honor of throwing out the first pitch. He did a fine job, but after the fact got a TON of criticism about his baggy "Mom Jeans"!
I admit, they didn't really look fantastic... but I'm sure they were comfortable. When it comes down to it, I'm not sure what people expect a U.S. President to wear when throwing out a first pitch... maybe a full suit? Perhaps khakis?
Also... he was not actually wearing "Mom Jeans". They were more "carpenter jeans" than anything else. Mom jeans, as I understand them, are more fitted around the hips with a very high waistline. THOSE would absolutely look horrible on President Obama (or any guy for that matter). It's funny how much drama blue jeans can cause. :)
Imagine opening your monthly credit card statement and seeing that you owed $23,148,855,308,184,500.00! (That is 23 Quadrillion dollars or 2000x the U.S. National Debt.)
This recently happened to father of 5, Jon Seale.A dinner at Wolfgang Puck that should have cost probably $50 turned into a 17-figure bill. Jon claims he was never nervous that he had to pay that amount since it is such an unbelievable mistake.
Visa has since corrected the glitch AND credited Jon back his $20 overdraft fee. (How nice of them to do that... lol)See the entire story here.
This could be the weirdest TV commercial and product yet... The Official Neckline Slimmer!
Here's how it works: -Every day for 2 minutes, use the Neckline Slimmer. It kind of looks like your neck is doing crunches. -There are 3 different resistance settings that you can pick from as your neck becomes stronger and leaner. -If you want further help using this machine.... DON'T WORRY... they include a free DVD with your Neckline Slimmer so you can work your neck most effectively!
This Neckline Slimmer is just strange, especially when you watch the infomercial - the ladies are always smiling while they use it. The whole thing borders on creepy. Here is the video in case you haven't seen it yet.
Does anyone else think this product is as bizzare as I think it is? Would you order it???
