That’s horrible. I hope she survives this and doesn’t die in the hospital later on because it could happen.

I hope her attackers will get caught fast and brought to justice.

Report: Harry Knowles of AintItCool defends “Twilight” and I agree with him 100%!!!

Harry Knowles a famous movie critic for the popular website AintItCool defends the “Twilight” books and the upcoming movie. He wrote a very good post and I agree with everything he said.

You know how guys around my age or older accuse the films and the books being for “tweens”. He explains that the “Twilight” series will help bring women of all ages to the horror genre more since most women are more into fantasy and romance.

He also explains that the “Twilight” series will help bring all people into a wider world of fandom. He explains how “Twilight” is for everyone, not just for “tween” girls and women of all ages. It can be for men of all ages too.

Read it here at AintItCool:

You men out there afraid to read the “Twilight” books? Don’t be. Do yourself a favor, go to the bookstore and start buying the series. “Twilight”, “New Moon”, “Eclipse” and “Breaking Dawn”. They are more than just vampire romance, they have something for everyone in the novels. Good storytelling and original.

I’m still reading “Eclipse”, the third book of the series, I’m halfway through it.

You can’t accuse “Twilight” being just for tweens when movies like the “Chronicles of Narnia”, “Lord of the Rings”, “Star Wars”, “Harry Potter”, etc. Are all pretty much the same thing. Those other movies I listed have young “pretty boys” that tween girls drool over too.

“Twilight” is for everyone. Read the books, if not, see the movie, and you’ll see why people get into these “Twilight” stuff. Great storytelling that is a real page turner, Stephenie Meyer will get you hooked, trust me.

Report: Does Robin Williams have a “Couple of Dicks”? The dude has enough balls to sue Frank and Beans…

Robin Williams is suing Frank and Beans Prods, and Gold Circle Films for over $6 million accusing the two companies of no pay when he agreed to star in the detective comedy film “A Couple of Dicks”. He was supposed to co-star with James Gandolfini (the Sopranos famed). Williams was informed back in March that the film is getting canned and it’s not going to get made at all. Williams maintains that Gold Circle is supposed to pay him even though the film is not getting made. It is part of a pay-or-play thing. This wasn’t the firt time that Gold Circle has been sued over this, Tom Hanks and his wife Rita Wilson sued them for the film “My Big Fat Greek Wedding”.

Robin Williams may be a good and heartwarming guy but you don’t mess with him. He is not laughing now.

Report: Chevy Chase attacks Sarah Palin again, says her being on the show was a huge mistake…

Former SNL star and former “Weekend Update” host, Chevy Chase continues to express his hate against the Vice President hopeful Sarah Palin. First he said he wanted Tina Fey to decimate Sarah Palin next time, and now he is saying it was a bad idea to put the real Sarah Palin on the show.

He said Lorne Michaels who is the longtime founder/owner of SNL had no scripts or no lines written for Sarah Palin, everything Sarah Palin said was all improvised. That means her insult at Tina Fey “No questions please” was improv as well.

Read more on what Chevy has to say about Sarah on SNL here:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/27278571/

I’ll admit that Sarah’s acting was pretty bad and kind of noticed her lines weren’t scripted a bit. She should focus on politics, not trying to start an acting career.

The only thing I give Sarah credit for is that she helped Tina Fey become more well known. Seriously!

About the petition/protest thing…

….it is simply over. I have decided to back down on this thing. I’m moving on because I have more better and more important things to do than this childish nonsense. I’ll admit it was kind of childish and lame, and there are better ways to handle these things. I removed all videos toward this matter and removed the blogs about that stuff. I’m also trying to remove the petition as well.

Best thing to do is to ignore all negativity and hate at you completely, then it will go away on it’s own. That’s exactly what I’m going to do from this point on.

Back to posting about entertainment news and posting about music which is what this blog is supposed to be about to begin with.

Cool Video: The real Sarah Palin DID IT!!!! She appeared on SNL last night!!!

The real Sarah Palin herself came on the show and confronted her enemy Tina Fey last night. Not only that, Mark Wahlberg himself showed up on set to confront his enemy Andy Samberg.

See it here:

http://www.nbc.com/Saturday_Night_Live/video/clips/gov-palin-cold-open/773761/

Sarah also did the Weekend Update where she did a rap thing about Alaska, see it here (NOTE: This is the real Sarah Palin in Weekend Update, it’s not Tina Fey):

http://www.nbc.com/Saturday_Night_Live/video/clips/update-palin-rap/773781/

Know the stories in the news where Mark Walhberg didn’t like Andy Samberg impersonating him? Marky Mark is not a happy camper. (Don’t worry I know all this Samberg vs. Marky Mark is all scripted to hype up the “Max Payne” flick)

See it here:

Saturday Night Live was usual pretty lame but those three segments above I laughed the hardest, they were the best.

Enjoy.

RANT: There is no such thing as “celebrity” in the Capital District!!!

There are certain people out there that think that just because you’re well known in the Capital District, when you get your name out there in this area, they think they get “fame”. How many times have I explained to you that there is no such thing as “fame” and being a local “celebrity” in the Capital District.

I am no big star or no big celebrity in this area. I am just a regular human being who is pretty happy enjoying life. Just a regular guy that enjoys living life, posting in my blog, just playing my guitar and writing songs. You really need to face reality that there is no such thing as “fame” in the Capital District area. Yes, there is a such thing as getting yourself recognized but that doesn’t make you celebrity.

Being local does NOT equal to national fame. The national news does not pay attention to what goes on in the Capital District. The only time when the national news do “national” reports about the Capital District is when Trey Anastasio was over here for drug treatment, 10 WWE wrestlers were suspended for failing the wellness policy in Albany, N.Y. when they performed here, and of course the Eliot Spitzer controversy.

If you want to be looked at like some celebrity, move to Los Angeles or New York City. You may have a better chance in getting “fame” in either of those two cities but you’re definitely not going to get it here in Albany, lol. But in reality, trying to get “fame” is not easy as it looks. It’s a long road, it doesn’t happen over night.

Many of the famous celebrities out there like movie stars, rock stars, sports stars, politicians, etc. They got “fame” because that’s what they were born to do. They grew up in fame because a lot of famous people grew up in a fame world. Celebs like Angelina Jolie, Drew Barrymore, Ben Stiller, Sly Stallone, Arnold, etc. They got fame ’cause they were born with it. It’s what they grew up and survived on.

You’re not going to get fame here. Even if you do move to New York City or Los Angeles permanently, it still maybe impossible to get fame in those cities as well. If I moved to California permanently (I’m not saying I will but what if), I don’t think that’ll make me a famous blogger nationally either.

When you get fame, you’ll know… when you get a gang of papparazi following you everywhere you go 24/7 but you’re certainly not going to get that in Albany. And on top of that, I don’t want fame anyways. I am not blogging or playing music for fame, they are just a little hobby I like to do in life. I’m not aiming for no big career for music or blogging, they are just something I love to do.

There is no such thing as fame or celebrity here in this area. The truth hurts but sometimes the truth needs to be said and you need to get out of that fantasy world of yours.
