HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL

New Hottie Theo Alexander on next season True Blood

Well, they certainty know how to warm up the blood. Theo Alexander will be joining the cast in its upcoming season and you'll definitely want to fall victim to his fangs. What is even better is that he plays a gay vampire, Talbot, an "intensely beautiful" vampire, the boyfriend of Russell Edgington (Denis O'Hare), the vampire king of Mississippi. Talbot has an acerbic sense of humor and loves to cook despite vampires' inherent lack of cooking talent. Delicious!!!

Can't wait for True Blood return.

New Music Video from Whitney Houston

Funky, uptempo song. Love it. What do you think of the song and the video?

New Whitney Houston Video- I Look To You

What do you think of the video?

It's Official. There are a Million Reasons To Buy New Whitney.

Whitney Houston officially releases her first single from her highly anticipated CD due in stores Aug 31. The single "Million Dollar Bill", written by Alicia Keys is an up-tempo, feel good dance song. It hit radio stations on August 17th. Just listen, its good!

Is the "Voice" back?

It's true that the "Voice", coined by Oprah, no longer has the same luster it once had. With the last 8 years not singing, drugs, bad marriage, it’s surprising that she has a voice at all. Even though the quality of her vocals can't compare to the years of the Bodyguard or even before, she still brings her signature style to the songs and you can't mistaken that it's a Whitney song. Both songs "I look to You" and "Million Dollar Bill" attracts the old and young. The ballad brings back her old fans that grew up with her and the up-tempo song helps attract a new set of people who really don't know Whitney at all. All in all it's a good enough. It’s nice to hear an actual singer on the radio these days.

New Whitney Houston- "I Didn't Know My Own Strength"

After a long wait her apparent first single has leaked onto the internet called " I Didn't Know My Own Strength". You may say many things about the Diva, but she still knows how to release a nice song. No autotune, like most are doing now. Just the pure old school vocals. Eventhough many may critize that her voice as no longer sounding the same, the smoker, deeper sounding vocals still delivers.

If These Walls Can Talk 2

A must watch.

Madge Denied.

Well the recent turmoil in Madonna's personal life i.e. divorce, younger man as a new "buddy", probably didn't help much in her pursue of adopting another Malawi orphan. This time the around the judge was courts were sticking to the rules of adoptions in the country, unlike the first time when she adopted David Banda. Here is the details from BBC News.



BBC & E-online:

Failing to prove her love apparently, a Malawi court has shot down the Material Mom's request to adopt a second child from the African nation, chalking up the denial to the fact that Madonna did not meet a simple residency requirement.

Acording to the BBC, a Malawi judge has ruled that Madonna would not be adopting 3-year-old oprhan Chinfundo "Mercy" James because she has not lived in the country from anywhere between 18 and 24 months as stipulated under adoption rules.

"I must have to decline to grant the application to Madonna," judge Esmie Chondo said in a ruling following the closed-door proceeding on Friday.

While the court apparently overlooked that fact when the Queen of Pop gained custody of 3-year-old David Banda and swept him off to London back in 2006. This time around, perhaps aware of the controversy the first adoption sparked among activists who felt Madonna and ex-hubby Guy Ritchie had wrongly skirted guidelines, Malawi officials followed their own law to the letter in denying young David a sister.

Judge Esme Chombo subsequently rejected her petition, pointing out that the 50-year-old singer divides her time miles away from Malawi between homes in New York or London.

The judge expressed concern that by allowing Madonna to bypass their own requirements and "removing the very safeguard that is supposed to protect our children, the courts by their pronouncements could actually facilitate trafficking of children by some unscrupulous individuals."

Chombo also argued that Madonna's good works with the orphanage will still benefit Mercy since she currently resides there.

"It is evident that Chifundo James no longer is subject to the conditions of poverty at her place of birth," the judge said.

No word whether the "Hung Up" crooner will appeal.

Madonna arrived in Malawi last week to visit her orphanage, see "Mercy," and take young David to see his biological father in order to keep him in touch with his Malawi roots. She filed her adoption request on Monday, stating that the girl's grandmother was unable to properly care for her and seeking custody to give her a better life free from "hardship and emotional trauma."

She was not present however when the court handed down its decision.

Whitney, Whitney, Whitney

Well she is certainly making a splash this weekend with all of her appearances at the major music shows. First Clive Davis Pre-Grammy awards party, where she actually performed. Yes you her me right, she actually performed on American soil. Today she presented the first award at the Grammys and tomorrow BET will air the BET Awards where she will appear as a presenter. So the question is when is the album coming out?

Well we all know that her voice isn't the same as it use to be. But it's still better then the majority that are out there now. As well you can always count on a live performance, which seems to be a dying breed with the new crop of young artists.

Whitney looks great, healthy, happy and ready to sing again. Glad to see a legend get back up on her feet after seemingly falling. Leaving the past behind and looking straight ahead into the future.

Looking forward to the new CD!!

Milk

Thirty years after the assassination of Harvey Milk, the first openly-gay elected official, Focus Pictures has released Milk, an effective, if long overdue biopic of the slain official. The new film stars Sean Penn in the title role, and the Oscar buzz started long before its release.

For those who aren’t familiar with the story, Harvey Milk was elected to the San Francisco Board of Supervisors in 1977, and led the gay rights movement in that city. He was a business owner, running a small camera store in the Castro district, which is still a major American gay mecca. He served in his post for eleven months before being gunned down by a fellow former Supervisor who had just killed San Francisco Mayor George Moscone moments earlier.

The film succeeds on many levels, most notably with Penn’s performance. He is so absorbed by the character, that it’s easy to forget that we’re watching an actor, not the real man. What’s more, the supporting actors were all at their best, each one taking on a special role in the film.

Jennifer Hudson New Single- Spotlight

Jennifer Hudson first single from her upcoming album in the fall is called Spotlight. It's a nice uptempo pop & R&B mix song that is catchy. I heard a remix in the clubs over the pride weekend and I really like it. Lots of potential for this singer to become a big superstar. Good Luck

Travel or Entertain?

The 2008 Fringe Festival is closely approaching. It's a wonderful opportunity to go see many local artists put on a self produce show.
The Fringe is Toronto 's largest theatre festival. In 2008 it will host over 800 artists from Ontario , Canada and around the world, with over 135 unique productions in more than 25 venues. Productions range from dramas to musical extravaganzas to improv and will take place in local theatres as well as in unusual spots: playgrounds, parking lots and more.

One artist's performance that is a must see is Thomas Corless. The last time he appeared in the Fringe festival was in 2002 with his debut production called Wonder Toy, that got great reviews from Xtra. This year he returns in his new production call Travel or Entertain?, a provocative and intimate look at the gay online chat world. You don't want to miss this rare performance from this talent artist.

Thomas Corless is a writer/performer from Toronto, Ontario and is the Artistic Director of Cute Guy Productions. His first exposure to theatre came in 2000 when he was part of the Summer 2000 Youth Arts Programme at Buddies in Bad Times Theatre. The project brought together 12 queer youth who learn about visual arts and theatre with a queer slant for one summer, culminating in a theatrical presentation at the end of their eight-week program.

Travel or Entertain? is the second production of this up-and-coming company. Thomas Corless explores the world of gay online hook-ups and dating. It's a mix of chats, monologues and stand-up. Playing realistic and relatable characters, Corless details the ups and downs of online life: the joys of a hot sexual encounter, the pain of a one-sided attraction, the egos of the unattainable and the desperation of the lonely.
