Award Shows
I am totally apathetic to these awards shows. I used to tape them, and then tape over them the next year without having watched the previous year's. So now I am in front of a TV that is not turned on, because I kinda know I wanna see the AMAs, but will be soooo bored if I do. But I want to know what happens, and I want to see my favorite artists perform-like Gwen Stefani.
There are just too many award shows now. Everyone, and I mean everyone, thinks they deserve an awards show. VH1-Big in 06 awards, Teen Choice Awards, People's Choice Awards, SAG Awards, MTV Video Music Awards, and don't forget the real ones, Oscars, Tonys (I know NOTHING about Theatre), Emmys and Grammys. Who has patience. No wonder they have to bribe the celebs to show up. I don't even wanna watch them in my PJs in bed.
Most of these awards are worthless. Nobody watches them anyway. Everyone's bored stiff. Like the Oscars--everyone gets all excited about them. They're so boring, i don't watch them. But everyone assumes that since I am into the media, I am a loser who sits for three and a half hours watching celebs pretend to be modest. "Oh, my, this is such a surprise," Like you didn't know.
Then they have these gracious loser faces, smiling like, "I didn't deserve this award. Good for him/her. Yeah, s/he deserves it." Puh-leez. I cried when I wasn't elected class president for a month in second grade. And who cares who saw me? And this is an Oscar. But, yes, these people have pride. Some.

Why I Love Tyra
I love Tyra Banks!!
I think I'm the only one who watches her talk show without having seen her on America's Next Top Model. I don't like modeling shows. I think they're breeding ground for eating disorders---if not, just a sucky body image.
But anyway, my friend argues that she has an ego. I agree that she tries a little hard to be down to earth on her show, but on the other hand, she's just acknowledging her celebrity status. Some celebs are just stupid about it, and just say, "why do people like me?" Umm, duh, cuz you're famous.
Besides that, though, her show makes for good entertainment. She's warm to her guests. She seems to really care about them, despite the fact that they're petty sometimes. I mean, she had a show about beauty--people who considered their beauty a curse, and others who considered it a blessing. It was shallow, but she told the people who were complaining about people not liking them because they were pretty, she told them that people don't see their inner beauty. So i guess she was kinda egotistical when she said she doesn't get too much negative press because she's nice, so people don't hate on her because of her beauty.
Whatever the case, she's very pretty, and she's warm to her guests. Her shows are shallow yet entertaining.

Splitney For Britney
(I got the title from today's Post)
Raise your hand if you're surprised.
My brother asked if I was surprised. Come on, didn't everyone see this coming?
Let me get this straight. K-Fed's girlfriend Shar Jackson was pregnant with his second child, when he left her to hook up with Britney. Did she not realize that this guy's best quality isn't loyalty?
I don't know what she saw in him. He was just a gold digger. Clearly. He really made out like a bandit. I don't even know if there was a prenup, but she paid for everything. He has an expensive car, a wardrobe, lived the high life for a while.
And with the anticipated success of his new album, I'm sure it will last, too.
I'm just glad she was the one to do the dumping.
Well, I tell you one thing--she can only do better.

Welcome Home!
Alright children, Mommy did some cleaning up.
I deleted my sister site Media Michelle. It became too crappy, and I was unable to maintain three blogs. So, I limited myself to two--this one, and the award-nominated Humble Jewish Opinion. Here, I choose to express things that don't necessarily have anything to do with Judaism, and not necessarily the media.
Perhaps just what makes me, me. All my nerdiness and other interests besides for bitching about what's wrong with the Jewish community.
Keep your eyes peeled for brand new exciting posts!!
