New Music!


Beck is reportedly coming out with a new album next month. It was produced by Gnarls Barkley's Danger Mouse so I'm pretty excited. His past albums have been phenomenal so hopefully this one will be as well!

Books & Movies!

The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian is coming out May 16th. If you haven't already I recommend reading the book first, it'll make the movie a hundred times better and of course if you haven't seen the first movie of the series The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe watch this.
Watch the trailer from youtube of the sequel:

Cinco De Mayo Eve!


So it is the eve to Cinco de Mayo, aka May 4th, and I'm sure excitement is astir. I know its one of my favorite holidays!

So entertainment news, I found newsworthy today:
  1. P. Diddy/Sean Combs/Puff Daddy...whatever you want to call him, well he likes to be called Sean Diddy Combs and chose that to be the name on his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. He recieved it on Friday, and I believe its way past due. Congrats Diddy keep making pop culture hits!
  2. Iron Man debuted this weekend and grossed over $100 million stateside and a little under that worldwide totalling just over $200 million overall! Congrats to Iron Man. It debuted as the second highest grossing non sequal, which is pretty great!
  3. Son of Rambow didn't do so bad either for limited release making a little over $50,000. Not a number comparable to Iron Man but that is the distinction between the blockbusters and the underdogs. It will open in more areas in the upcoming weeks so check it out!
That's all my recapping for the weekend I believe! Cheer up because although tomorrow is Monday it issss also Cinco de Mayo, so grab a margarita or a quesadilla with salsa and celebrate!

Head to Myspace by Monday. Rolling Stone reports that she is seeking a singer between 21 to 30 with a 30 second or more submission of themselves. So if you’ve got a good singing voice and are fit to dance, go for it!

Finally Friday!


So its finally Friday, and I had my last class of college which is sad, but also relieving that my workload is ending....for now anyway.

So on a completely different track today I was browsing the news and thought this was pretty cool. There was a graffiti festival in a London tunnel and the popular artist Banksy was there along with dozens of international artists. Looks awesome to me!

Enjoy the beginning of the weekend with that!

Thursday Nights Are Great For TV!

So I'm writing this while I'm watching Lost so during the commercials. Let me tell you Thursday night is THE night for great tv in my view. I mean ABC is throwing Grey's & Lost at you and NBC is kicking it back with half hour shows like Scrubs, the Office, and 30 Rock, how do you decide? Well really you can't. I usually stick to watching the one hours live and saving the half hour shows for online viewing. Of course if you got the spare change you can always get DVR or Tivo that stuff to! So tonight is all about my appreciation for GREAT Scripted TV and no silly REALITY shows! Love the writers glad their back, now I'm just hoping the Actors won't flake out on me and go on a strike!

So speaking of actors and the talent side of things, I haven't brought up the gossip/rumors yet in this blog. I mean that's what makes it yummy.

First things first!
PAM ANDERSON is an American officially! She passed her citizenship test & officially is a part of the great US of A! Everyone should send her a congratulatory card of course and tell her NOT to do her reality tv show because its only going to make people not be obsessed with her life. Man no more reality shows on stars...I hope Denise is reading!

NEXT:
Yummy Food tidbit of the week: Tim McGraw is coming out with his own flavor of Fritos. They will be Spicy Jalapeno Fritos so if its as hot as his wife Faith then I would definitely head over to Stop & Shop and go get myself a bag!




Third order of Business:
There is a spinoff of Family Guy coming and its called Cleveland. Its by the creator of Family Guy, Seth MacFarlene so if its as good as Family Guy I'm excited. But to be completely honest mostly why I love Family Guy is because it is set in RI my home base, so I am biased. They are already expected to air 13 episodes so we'll where it goes!

MARIAH CAREY NEWS: I know Everyone's Excited! Remember when Mariah made that ridiculous appearance on Cribs and tried to seduce the camera man with her awkward diva ways? If you don't you're lucky because I unfortunately have that image burned in my brain! Anyways she is being her ridiculous self again because one day after her rumored engagement to Nick Cannon there is another rumor that they got married. I mean if its on MSNBC how rumored could it be? Check it out for yourselves: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24413267/


100 DAYS UNTIL THE OLYMPICS...CHINA BEGINS COUNTDOWN...to bad the rioting everywhere is getting more attention than the games...maybe they should look at why people are rioting in the first place? Maybe...I mean who looks at human rights issues when there are medals to be won? Alright I'll stop trying to bring about social change with this yummy blog promise!


On to brighter and better news:
Chocolate Wine has been invented...I don't know what it tastes like but sounds fun and worth to try: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/food_and_drink/article3842748.ece

I think thats the note I'll end this post on. Feel free to voice your opinions about any of my fun topics because I love to hear that you agree, disagree, or just love my face! Also keep coming back because this is quickly becoming a daily obsession!
