Strange

Well, I missed yesterdays post, too bad. The Monday/Tuesday ones will be very light. Hopefully with some pictures every week. I'm usually busy or too lazy to post if i don't post so bear with me if your favourite blog isn't updated ;)

Alright, so today because I'm lazy, I'll talk about something thats easy to please. Girls. I'm sure everyone has a few celebs or even friends that most people wouldn't find hot but you do. C'mon, you know what I mean. Ain't nothing to be ashamed of. If there are any ladies reading this, sorry as I probably won't be doing a guy one too soon.

I'll get it going with my few. You may or may not recognise them, or may even find them unattractive, but like I said. These are actresses that most people might find unattractive or hot but there's just something unexplainable that makes them seem hot to me. Might take awhile to load as there will be quite a number of pics. If you're still with me, here we go:


1) Jorja Fox a.k.a Sara Sidle. I just find her attractive I do not know why. If you watch CSI you will know her. She looks a little like Jennifer Garner right?


2) Kari Byron of Mythbusters fame. I know she's not that hot but yet again I have no idea why I just enjoy watching her on Mythbusters. Must be my thing for redheads :P

3) Alright, might not be so shocking this one. Avril Lavigne. Always a good reason to post some Avril pics.

4) Isla Fisher, of Wedding Crashers fame. Again, redhead. Yummy.

5) Lastly, Hayley Williams of Paramore. I think she's 17. No, wait, 19. Not your typical hot... but cute AND hot. Nice hair too.
Alright, thats all for today. Put alot more time then I intended into this. Enjoy and Ciao.

New ways

So, I've decided that the blog need some refreshing. From now, I'll try to post at least 3 times a week.

Monday will be random rant day, where I just complain about stuff.

Wednesday will be Music Review day, where I review albums I have.

Thursday will be Movie Review day, where I review movies that I have watched in the past.

I will try my best to keep to this schedule as it adds some interesting posts to freshen up this dieing blog.


Alright, back to American Idol. I have decided that I will from now, cease to watch this incredibly frustrating series. Like I've said before, clearly it's been proven that it's nothing more than a popularity contest, not a singing one. With Americans becoming dumber by the day, I shouldn't have been as surprised and disappointed as I was when I saw Michael being voted out.

Clearly the best or 2nd best singer/performer in the contest and closest competitor to David Cook, he was voted out before, KRISTY LEE COOK, SYESHA, and BROOKE WHITE.

Americans proved their ability to be not only blind but deaf at the same time in a talent-poll which saw David Cook at no.1, and David Archuleta at no.2. No complaints there, it's debatable that they might be the most talented, but lets take a look further down the table. Carly was at no.3, a deserved spot for the Irish born, powerful singer. At no.4 was America's favourite joke, Brooke White. no.5 was Michael Johns, which shows you how deaf/blind Americans are and rounding it up were Jason, Syesha and Kristy.

Now, in any way you look at it Brooke is in no way more talented, a better singer, better performer or more likeable than Michael. And this is coming from a guy. Apart from that, Syesha?! The girl can outsing Brooke any day.

So after another half-season where I thought we might finally find a winner worth winning, American Idol has proven itself again. Except this time, I won't be continuing.

Without anyone in his way, David Cook should win now although I have a sneaky feeling that David "I can only sing 1 genre" Archuleta might sneak it with his innocent punchable face and honey-dripping sweet voice.

Alright then, thats all for now. Tune in for the updates later in the week.

Cheers.

Song of the day is: Mother Superior by Coheed and Cambria.

P.S. Every post will end with a song of the day. If you can't download but still want the song, feel free to ask me on MSN, I'll happily spread good music around.

I'll leave ya'll with some pictures.

Sad But True

Metallica song. Not exactly my favourite but it sums up this weeks American Idol.

At the start of this season I had hope. That maybe this season it might be slightly different. This season we actually had some REAL talent. This season we had some very interesting and diverse range of contestants.

In 2 weeks, the show has proven me wrong.

It's not the singing part of the show that really stumps me. It's elimination day that really shows me what this show is and has never changed from since well, season 3 I think.

Seasons 1 and 2 in my opinion might be the only 2 "real" shows in the history probably. Although the talent was not so diverse then. People voted for the most talented singers. Not the most good looking, or cute etc etc. They voted for people who could actually SING. Well, it IS a singing competition is it not?

Alright, down to the nitty gritty. Bottom 3 last week and this week.

Last week, we had Syesha, Kristy and David Hernandez in the bottom 3. When Ryan Seacrest asked Simon whether it was the correct choice. He said, "Yes." Normally Simon is the only opinion that really matters. However I think this time he just wanted to make a statement, wanted to be different, stand-out. Because my dear Simon, Ramielle was sitting down comfortably on the couch, bawling her eyes out. Because David Archuleta was sitting with her.

How in the world is it the correct decision when Syesha is in the bottom 3 and Ramielle is not? David A. I can understand because he can sing but he messed up big time. Kristy deserves to be there because she dosn't even deserve to be in the top 12.

Anyway, who goes home? David. Erm, American people, Kristy Lee Cook was standing next to him and you chose to keep her in. Looks like another season of popularity idol.

This week, I thought it might be different. I thought well, ok the public saw what they did last week. They surely won't do the same this week. I thought the performance described by Simon as being like "Chekezie on Harmonica." would surely be the worst, right?

According to the same man, nope. Bottom 3, Carly(Wtf American people are you all stupid or something), Kristy and Amanda Overmyer. Surprise surprise, no Ramielle again. Simon, is it the right choice? YES!

Amanda was easily head and shoulders over Brooke who once again delivered an uninspired, awkard, painfully boring performance.

Carly was easily the best of the ladies and RAMIELLE WAS SITTING AGAIN!

I don't know anymore Simon, maybe you just want to stand out.

So, another week goes by and Kristy survives again. Ramielle not even in bottom 3.

Well, popularity wins again, the short cute girl defeats the rocker bike riding nurse. But then again, this show started from Pop Idol. And the rubbish that gets played on radio nowadays. The genre thats a short-form for Popular, in which Soulja Boy and Fergie can rule the charts. Maybe it's just what the mainstream music industry has come to.

It's sad, but I'm afraid it's true.

Cheers people, have a good one.

Murderers

by John Frusciante. Download and see. Good upbeat instrumental by the RHCP guitar virtuoso.

Alright. As you may have noticed, I'll recommend one song everytime I post something. It's good stuff so enjoy it.

Sorry for the long break, just didn't find anything interesting to write about.

Well, I missed both American Idol's this week. And I'm posting to tell you why.

I joined True Fitness and today I got a taste of Hell. Y.o.g.a.

SHIT! If you think working out, lifting weights and jogging is tiring. Try Yoga. It takes all of that and shits on it.

To people who say stuff like you can't work more than 2 major muscles in a day or something. Yoga gives that statement one big middle finger.

It's one super big workout all rolled into one, and joining an advanced class on our first try didn't help much. We did however manage to strive till the end.

I felt okay for all of the first 3 minutes, then the actual thing started. On one hand you're thinking, how am I gonna do that pose. On another hand, you're thinking how are all these other people doing that pose. And on your third hand, if you have one, you're thinking this hurts like hell.

I see why it's a real popular workout now. After only 10 mins I was sweating like mad. Drenched. Imagine if you do this everyday. Every muscle in your body is pulled apart, contracted and god knows what else. And add a 40'C room to that.

Well, it does feel really great when you're done and showered. Only for fucking Rihanna to spoil the whole mood with her unfaithful bullshit.

I don't wanna be a murderer too Rihanna, but dear do you run me close.

Have a good one,
Cheers

Girls Girls Girls

Famous song by Motley Crue that. Go download it and see.

Kay with the introduction outta the way. DOWN TO SERIOUS BUSINESS!!!!!! I mean it this time.

I just wanna add, this is not an AI(American Idol) blog. I just write about what I saw/heard/felt during the day and most of the time it will be about the entertainment business and sometimes sports.

So, where do I begin... Oh gawd, Last 10 girls. *Tsk tsk tsk* very sad.

I'm too lazy to rip into each and everyone of them individually for tonights performance. I'll just summarize the performance.

Rubbish*.
*With the exception of Carly.

Song choice tonight was shocking, and nobody stood out in particular. Except Carly of course.

I'll split them up into 3 tiers.

1st Tier are confirmed entries into the finals, strong favourites.
2nd Tier are those that can sing well, but are not as good as the 1st tier. Good chance of making it into the Finals.
3rd Tier are those that are just there to make up the numbers. Waiting to get eliminated.

Tier Uno:
  1. Carly (Tatooted, Irish) - By far the strongest female contestant. Very professional and good voice.
  2. Syesha - Very very smooth voice. Should sail through to the finals easily.

Tier Dos:
  1. Kady Malloy (Blonde, looks like Britney) - She has talent, just not picked the right songs yet. The way she sings is effortless and all good singers have that.
  2. Amanda Overmyer (Punk Nurse) - My 2nd favourite from the girls. I think she will go through as well. I love the tone of her voice.
  3. Alaina Whitaker (Ali Larter/Carrie Underwood) - I think she has some potential. Sweet girl and pretty face. On the fence. Very similar to Kady but not as good vocally, which could split the votes when people choose between the 2.
Tier Tres:
  1. Brooke (Good Girl) - I'm starting to really dislike this girl, she's just so irritating and "fake". Average voice.
  2. Kristy Lee Cook (HOT!!!!!!!!) - Phew, the hottest contestant to be on Idol for a while. I think her looks will get her through but her voice is nothing special.
  3. Ramielle (Phillipino, Hawaiian looking) - I also don't like her. Nothing too special but I got this feeling she'll be like that Hawaiian girl from a few seasons ago who got into the top 3.

Rest of them are forgettable.

Been a long read, I'll stop here today.

and go listen to paramore.
