Music Tuesdays: To Hell With Love Songs

Personally, I heart the happier love songs. haha Nonetheless, a lot of people seem to be relating more to heartache, pain, and independence, than to love and happiness. I mean, just think about it.

Adele won 6 Grammys after releasing an album about her ex.

Rihanna hit numero uno once again with a melody about finding love in hopeless locations.

And now, Kelly Clarkson stands at the top of the charts with a song that lets everyone know that she’s better off alone.

 

BTWs, listen to Kelly Clarkson’s “Stronger” below!

I heart this song!

ANYWAYS…

I don’t know what it is, but these songs are definitely the types to reach number 1 nowadays. With that said, there’s still plenty of love to go around.

Tell’em Whitney!

This is my ish! Sang it all the way home today in the car. And, in case your wondering, I will be posting a Whitney song every day this week. 😉

HAPPY VALENTINE’S DAY!!!!

Hot Mess Mondays: WTF Nicki Minaj…

I’ve been gone for a minute now, but last night’s Grammys have brought me back in full force. There was so much ashiness going on that I had to present some type of commentary.

1) Nicki Minaj for just being a hot mess.

Honestly, I can’t find the appropriate words to use to describe her performance last night because the language I’m thinking of is inappropriate for this blog. With that said, I don’t know what hellfire Nicki Minaj decided  to appear from, but I know it wasn’t the usual devil’s. Honestly, I’m tired of Nicki, Gaga, Perry, and the likes. All of these heifers are trying to be so weird and “different” that they’re all becoming the same person. Not to mention, their music is so ashy that it’s starting to crack my eardrums. At least Madonna made good Pop music. Get it together ladies!

2) Rihanna for making me believe…..

Every time Rihanna performs, I decide to give her the benefit of the doubt. After all, in recent years, she’s been improving as a live performer (After terrible concert sales, Jay-Z was probably like “*^&(% you betta work!”). Unfortunately, last night ended up being another example of why I will never purchase homegirl’s concert ticket. Rihanna started off okay. She was even on key for the most part… Then, it was time for her performance with Coldplay….

Doesn’t she hear herself??? I would advocate for her to use playback, but if she did that she wouldn’t have a career. Boo boo is not Britney status.

By the way, this was Rihanna a few years ago….

You know Jay-Z said something. Heifer didn’t even hit one note! #Fail

3) Chris Brown for constantly making my Newsfeed.

Personally, I’ve forgiven Chris enough for his past to not care about him performing on the Grammys. However, I know that a lot of people haven’t. I guess the point is that he should’ve never hit a woman and then blown up my inbox.

p.s. He had an awesome performance last night as always. Maybe I would be more excited about this Chris Brown at the Grammys debate, but honestly he’s already performed everywhere else. This is just another award show in my mind. The End.

Check out Brown’s performance below….

And, in other news…

This weekend marked a sad time in the music industry when Whitney Houston passed. Thank goodness we have Jennifer Hudson to sing such beautiful tributes. Between her and Adele, the Grammys weren’t a complete waste of my time.

We love you Whitney!

Whitney Houston

(1963-2012) 

And, just for kicks….

Take some pointers Rihanna!

We’re Beautiful and Dirty Rich

That’s what Hollywood likes to remind we “peasants” as we stare in awe at its swarms and swarms of celebrities. BUT, if there’s one thing we must all remember, things are not always as they seem…

Example #1: Sandra Bullock and Jesse James

Recently, it’s been brought to the public’s  attention that Sandra Bullock’s husband, Jesse James, has been having a few extracurricular activities, and unlike Bullock’s, they don’t involve acting. Recently, Michelle “Bombshell” McGee went public with the alleged affair she’s been having with James. Although neither James nor Bullock has confirmed the allegations, it can pretty much be assumed that James’ adulterer status is grade-A solid. My heart goes out to Bullock. Public humiliation by a spouse is no bueno, but props to her for not pulling an Elin……

Bullock won the Best Actress Oscar for her role in The Blind Side last month.

Did Sandra Know About Jesse James Affair?

Example #2: Russell Crowe

Earlier today Russell Crowe received his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Without a doubt, as the leading man of such films as Gladiator, A Beautiful Mind,  and Cinderella Man, Crowe deserves all his acting glory. However, we peasants must not forget that the same charming Crowe that we adore on the silver screen is also the belligerent telephone throwing nutcase. Now, I love Crowe and all, but if you’re attacking hotel staff workers for no reason, then you need to see a serious therapist….Check out Crowe’s latest incident in the Los Angeles Times article below.

Los Angeles Times: Don’t ask Robin Hood\’s Russell Crowe about wearing tights

Russell Crowe Telephone Tantrum

Anyways, a huge congratulations to Russell. Everyone can’t wait to see you in Robin Hood. Just try not to shoot any arrows at your fans please….We’ll take gold though. Schmanks! 😉

Example #3: Whitney Houston

Although Whitney has not done too much acting in recent years, everyone will always remember her starring roles in The Bodyguard, Cinderella, and Waiting to Exhale. This past year, Whitney has been on the road to a recovering music career and image, interviewing with Oprah, releasing a brand new CD titled I Look To You, and performing all over the world. Yet sadly, rumors have started up again that Ms. Houston has relapsed. Reports just last week suggested that Whitney had to cancel a few shows due to her addiction. Houston claims that she was just having respiratory problems and needed a break. Honestly, if we did not know about Houston’s “Crack is Whack!” past from before, then maybe her denials would seem more legitimate. Let us hope that our queen is not lying…I don’t think any of us could take it.

Whitney Houston: Back On Drugs?

Here’s Whitney denying her “habit” the first time.

Yeah…..hopefully, this post was not too much of a downer. Maybe one day our beautiful and dirty rich celebs will focus less on the glitz and glamor of Hollywood and more on their own lives and wellness.

**p.s. You know I could not provide the title without the video lol. Enjoy! 🙂
