@BlondeGoddess: I realize she's attempting to look like she's in control. But I think she's trying a little too hard with the whole "Good Girl Gone Bad" image. It's sending a mixed message to her fans.
@kookla: I don't know. I think this is more about Rihanna than anything else. My completely pointless conjecture is that she's angry at herself for being lured into the violence. And this cd is about her body and the harm done to it. I'll have to think more on it but I really think that this cd reflects her state of mind while she made the album and less about a message she wants to send other than being honest with how she felt about the whole thing. "I may be dumb but I'm not Stupid In Love." as she says. That's a telling statement. (In my completely unprofessional opinion.)
@neka78: I guess I shouldn't read too much into the sexy posturing. But Rihanna was the one that said she wanted to set an example for young girls in a similar situation.
It's one thing to be angry. But it's another to glamorize gun violence.
I officially turned into my mother about halfway through the clip by saying to myself "Honey, you can be a strong, empowered woman with your clothes on."
Which is her 4th favorite saying.
Oprah is not necessarily quititng TV altogether. The rumour is actually that she is quitting her SYNDICATED show in 2011, but that she will be doing another show on her Oprah cable network (or whatever it is) when her syndication show stops.
So, really, doesn't strike me as such huge news. Not like she is leaving tv for good.
The Rihanna line makes me want to cry. I can't imagine what it's like to have to battle through the roller-coaster of emotions that follow an abusive relationship while in the public eye.
BMI, which enforces music royalties, claims an Idaho bar has been playing songs by artists including John Fogerty and Taylor Swift without permission. [TMZ]
Did anyone else read this and think, "Dammit, what will the Body Mass Index control next! Ohhhh..."
So this is how lame I am. When I read the Lost premiere date, I literally put down my Hot Pocket (Hurley would be proud) and started to write a countdown in my agenda. I realized after a minute that I was accidentally counting up instead of down, but then I figured that probably made sense in the context of the show.
So I have about a year and some change to develop a rare body-deforming disease/marry a rich famous person ala Mrs. Seinfeld and ex-Mrs. Rock/become famous myself but not in a Hilton-y way/become a home-decorator-chef-professional organizer-landscaper from Australia/create my own weird self-affirmation religion to get on Oprah.
Wish me luck, guys. I got some plannin' to do!
The Bob Saget show sounds like a slightly watered down version of "Louis Theroux's Weird Weekends" - a British show which was usually interesting. [en.wikipedia.org]
@Lady Skittlehattington: Thank. You. Also, fun fact - she wanted Elvis to record it. He turned it down. Which is too bad, because an Elvis/Dolly collaboration is pretty much the stuff my dreams are made of.

I don't know about anyone else, but I'm not on board with this one. I don't care how much I sound like my mom.
