Report: Oscars will be unpredictable this year, nominated winners will be played in a different game…

Leave a comment

All the nominated celebrities…actors, film crew, attended the Academy award luncheon today in Beverly Hills, California. The president of the Academy Arts and Sciences, revealed that nominations will be played a different way for the winners this year, but he was tight lipped on the details.

Yep, that means the movie fans who are expecting the Golden Globe winners to win at the Oscars too, that may not even happen and the winners could be totally different. If you think “Slumdog Millionaire” will sweep everything or Mickey Rourke will win for “The Wrestler” at the Oscars Feb. 22nd, those things could change too. This is the Academy’s way of keeping things unpredictable.

The Associated Press reports:

While I would love to see “Slumdog Millionaire” sweep everything since I think it’s a wonderful film, I have a feeling it’s not going to happen. Either “Benjamin Button” or “Milk” could be the big winners that night. The Oscars this year will be unpredictable, you’ll never know who’ll be the winners.

Even Angelina and Brad could pick up a win for their roles too.

WWE news

Stone Cold to have one final wrestling match at WM-25???

Leave a comment

Rumours are swirling heavily in the world of wrestling news on the web, that Stone Cold Steve Austin may have his final and last farewell match at Wm-25, since it’s been announced he’s being inducted into the Wrestling Hall of Fame.

Behind the scenes of wrestling, it’s been said that Vince McMahon tried to sign the Rock to wrestle Stone Cold at Wm-25. “The Rock” Dwayne Johnson turned it down of course. Dwayne is too busy making movies, I think “The Rock” is done with wrestling forever. Vince tried to ask Hulk Hogan to wrestle Stone Cold at Wm-25, but of course, Hulk turned that down too

Since most the former legends do not want to wrestle Stone Cold and most of the WWE Top stars are already in other storylines, Stone Cold still has no possible opponent for Wm-25.

My question is, why is McMahon trying to get Stone Cold to wrestle another wrestling icon at Wrestlemania, when Stone Cold’s Wrestlemania oppponent should be no one other than Vince McMahon?

I think it’s appropriate that it should be Stone Cold vs. Vince for Wm-25, Stone Cold’s long time enemy, the feud that was important to the WWE in the first place.

Now, don’t get your hopes up of Stone Cold wrestling his final match at Wrestlemania ’cause it’s just a rumour at this point. I hope it’s true though, we’ll just have to wait and see, keep our fingers crossed.

Report: Christian Bale not too friendly when being messed with while filming…

Leave a comment

TMZ posted an audio clip of Christian Bale on a temper tantrum, screaming at film makers while filming “Terminator: Salvation”, swearing and threatening them with violence and everything.

Click here to listen:

Me thinks, Christian hasn’t been the same since Heath Ledger died, I think he’s still upset over the death of Heath.

On top of that, I think the film makers of “Terminator: Salvation” deserved the smackdown by Christian 100%. Sounds like they were giving Christian a hard time, being a bunch of dicks to the actor (you can hear the crew laughing at him in the background).

This is why Hollywood film makers shouldn’t piss off their actors. The actors are worth a lot of money being paid over $20 million for just one film. Honestly, Christian isn’t doing anything wrong here, sounds to me the crew provoked him and he lashed out in return.

Nice job Christian, show them shady Hollywood film makers that you aren’t to be messed with!!!

Report: Ex-fiance claims relationship with Drew Peterson was a “stunt”…

Leave a comment

Christina and Ernie Raines both appeared on the “Early Show” being interviewed by Julie Chen this morning. The relationship between Christina and Drew Peterson gets even better.

Christina says this wasn’t an engagement, she claims it was more of a publicity “stunt”. When Julie Chen asks Christina if Drew talked to Christina about the disappearance of Stacy Peterson, she refused to answer the question.

See the interview transcript here:

Um, yeah right Christina. “Publicity stunt”? We all know the spoiled little brat just used him ’cause he’s wealthy and to get her 15 minutes of fame as well. I also think, Drew’s been talking to Christina privately that he knows where Stacy is and Christina knows where Stacy is.

I’ll be looking for the video interview in youtube today.

Report: Hardcore XXX porn clip interupts Superbowl game TV in Tucson, Arizona…

Leave a comment

So you live in Tucson, Arizona enjoying the Superbowl at a local sports bar there or watching the game at home with your family, and suddenly, you see a woman taking a man’s dick out on national TV. All uncensored too.

Maybe it’s speculation that it could be an accident in the TV broadcasting or just a bunch of TV crew, all drunk and put the porn tape on TV for a laugh. The incident is being investigated by the TV station.

TMZ reports:

http://www.tmz.com/2009/02/02/porn-clip-penetrates-super-bowl-broadcast/

Me thinks, it’s a bunch of idiot guys in the TV station, decided to pull a prank for a laugh.

Hilarious! Howard Stern will be all over this on Sirius radio all week!

RANT: Striving to be happy and feeling good about yourself…

Leave a comment

Considering that Valentine’s day is coming up, I wanted to talk about something else besides love and romance. Since I am single, I will talk about myself in this blog entry. I usually don’t use my blog to talk about myself anymore like I used to do in the past, but I’ll do it once in a while when I need to vent and get something off my chest.

My only goal in life is trying to stay a happy and positive life. I vow to never let anybody’s drama get in the way with it. Anybody that tries that to put my life in a negative direction, keep trying, it’s never going to happen. I’m a very strong person emotionally. Do you think I care if you don’t like or hate me? No. Do you think I care if you think I’m not smart and intelligent enough to write on the internet? No. Do you think I care if people write all kinds of nasty and harsh things about me online? No. Do you think I care if people hate me in private but pretend to respect me publicily? No. I can go on.

I don’t have time for people’s hate and drama anymore. If you’re the type of person that expresses hatred toward the same person you’re hating at for a long time, then I think you have problems and mental issues that you need to be helped. If you’re a negative person that acts like a bully in high school (yes this is kiddie stuff), you’re out of my life for good ’cause I have no time for it.

I want to stay happy, stay strong, and that’s all I care about, being happy with my own family members and life. That’s all I care about, period, end of story.

I am serious about when I say that I want to get fit and workout. That is something I plan to be committed to this year. I’ve been researching on doing the best workouts by shopping for workout DVD’s and exercise equipment, learning to use what supplements to take, and eating right by eating more high protein/low carb foods. I’m not training to fight anybody or nothing, just to have a better looking body and feel good about myself, feel more energetic. Prove people wrong that I can be a physical person and be one tough SOB. I’ll probably be talking about exercise/fitness in the blog more so maybe I’ll have a new “blog topic” about that in the blog categories below in the site. Those that don’t know, this is something I’ve been doing since high school, and I’ve just recently decided to do this full time.

That’s enough about me, back to the entertainment news.

Thought: The reason the Springsteen half time was a let down and stank like crap…

Leave a comment

Hmmmm, so you wanna know more on why I think the Springsteen performance didn’t work? I’ll explain more…

1. Springsteen’s lame opening intro where he says, “I want you to step back from the guacamole, put down the chicken fingers and turn the television all the way up!!” Lame, lame, lame. Shut up Boss, we want to hear the music, not hear you running your mouth throughout most of your 12 minute set.

2. Lyrics were cut out and Springsteen sang very little of each song. It’s not like he forgot lyrics, I’m sure he’s got every single song he wrote memorized by heart, and I’m sure he shortened the songs to fit the 12 minute time, but cutting out lyrics was not needed in my opinion.

3. The end of the set, a referee came on stage, gave the Boss a signal to delay a game, meaning to stop the live music so they can get on with the game, Little Steven yells through the mic, “It’s Boss time”. Yep, I guess the E Street Band are a bunch of egos.

I understand that the E Street Band played hundreds of stadiums from football stadiums to baseball stadiums all the time, but they were never televised, this was their first televised stadium appearance, that’s why they went for this opportunity.

I was expecting the E Street Band to play an actual music show but it turned out to be a damn circus. I’m dissapointed Bruce, what a let down performance. Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers from last year was the best. I don’t think a future Halftime performance of the Superbowl will ever top Tom Petty.

With the referee thing at the end of the Bruce gig, I know it was all done for humor and laughs, but still it was done in poor tastes. I wonder what the audience really thought of that?

On top of that, I enjoyed the overall game, a historic game, I saw that 100 yard run touchdown and that was an incredible play. This is how a Superbowl game is supposed to be played.

Thought: Springsteen was a let down, not very energetic…

Leave a comment

I wasn’t too impressed by Springsteen and the E Street Band’s performance at the Halftime show tonight. I love Springsteen but the song selection wasn’t that great. Jennifer Hudson was the musical highlight of the night, she did better than Springsteen. Sorry, just an honest opinion.

Edit: Another thing to add, Jennifer Hudson is the one who should be the Halftime performing act, maybe she’ll get the Halftime gig for next year?
