Bret Michaels is Celebrity Apprentice…

It was no surprise to me that Bret Michaels was going to be the winner of this year’s “Celebrity Apprentice”. I think everyone knew it was going to happen since the very first episode. Yes, I watched this year’s season of “Celebrity Apprentice” as I did last year. I like the show. It’s interesting and very comical. I just watch it for laughs. The show is obviously scripted. I’m sure the winners are already planned out before the show goes on the air.

BREAKING NEWS: Bret Michaels rushed to hospital again due to heart problems…

First brain hemmorhage and now it’s TIA. Like I said before, he needs to take a break from his career. Take it easy for a long while and get plenty of rests. That’s what he needs. He’s too hung up on his fame and glory, that’s why he won’t do it. Cancel that tour and stay home, man. Or else you’ll die on the road. Bret will be in the grave along with Peter Steele and Ronnie James Dio if he doesn’t relax.

Cool Video: Phish performs the Rolling Stones hit, “Loving Cup” on Jimmy Fallon last night…

Phish performed on TV for the first time in many years. Here they are performing the Rolling Stones classic, “Loving Cup”  in celebration of the band’s “Exile on Main St.” album. Keith Richards was even there to introduce the band to the stage. How cool is that?

See the great performance here:

Now you see how talented Phish really is when they play live. Phish are amazing live performers, I’ve seen them live in concert at least a couple of times. I love Phish and plan on seeing them again this summer at SPAC hopefully.

Betty White is finally being noticed after all these years!!!

With her success of her appearance on SNL as host, which was a very good episode by the way, there will probably be more Betty White on national TV. What is next for Betty White? “Dancing with the Stars”, “American Idol” guest judge, WWE RAW guest host, “Celebrity Apprentice”, host for the next Oscars, maybe even some big movie roles, etc.

She certainly deserves all this. Make her life a good one before it’s her time to say, RIP, if you know what I mean. Not trying to be disrespectful but I think you know what I mean. This is why people want to give her all these opportunities. Give her the best time of her life before she leaves us.

She is hilarious and a talented comedian. She’s definitely one of the true legend’s of today, that’s for sure. She gets my respect a whole lot. I’m pretty sure Vince McMahon and WWE already has their eye on her for WWE RAW guest host and I’m sure they’ll get her at some point too.

Betty White rules. The Golden Girls used to be one of my favorite sitcoms back in the day, used to watch it all the time.

5 Reasons to like “Friday Night Lights”…

So “Friday Night Lights” is finally back. The premiere of Season 4 aired last Friday over the weekend and I watched it very good episode. Why do I love the show so much? Well there are 5 reasons….

  1. Kyle Chandler is a great actor. Kyle Chandler who plays Coach Eric Taylor can be very entertaining ’cause he has a really short fuse and has a temper tantrum. The reason he acts this way on the show ’cause it’s his way of trying to get the players on the team more motivated in football, plus all Eric cares about is his team winning games like most sports coaches do. So he uses his temper to get players all fired up and ready for the game. This is an entertaining character and it’s one reason why I watch it. Whenever “Friday Night Lights” gets canned for good in the future, I have a feeling that Kyle Chandler will become a huge movie star in the future. He already had a few pretty big roles in Hollywood movies such as Peter Jackson’s “King Kong” remake and he had a role in, “The Day The Earth Stood Still” remake as well.
  2. Taylor Kitsch as Tim Riggins. He’s another entertaining character of the series. Taylor Kitsch is already a Hollywood actor before this show. Tim Riggins is a flaky kind of character who is an alcoholic and plays a loser type of character on the show. This is one reason that makes the show good.
  3. Minka Kelly as Lyla Garrity. Another reason to like this show is the gorgeous and sexy, Minka Kelly. Damn, she’s one fine looking chick.
  4. Good writing. The scripts of the episodes is what keeps the show going and what keeps people watching. The show has really good writing. Most shows on TV has bad writing, but “FNL”, the writing almost seems like a movie script, rather than a TV show.
  5. It feels like old school primetime drama. A show like this can make you feel like watching “The Wonder Years” or “Doogie Howser”. It almost feels like the 80’s of drama TV all over again. “FNL” is the real deal.

Glad the show is finally back.

Report: Steve Carell might leave “The Office” next year…

Steve Carell, star of “The Office” dropped a shocking announcement that he might leave the show next year.

Read more on the story here:

“Office” fans like myself might be dissapointed, but hey, Steve has a HUGE movie career up ahead of him. Maybe that’s why he wants to quit ’cause he finally decided he wants to be a full time movie star now.

While he was still playing in “The Office”, Steve did several movies playing the leading roles  which were very successful and big hits in the box office. Movies such as “The 40 Year Old Virgin”, “Get Smart”, “Date Night”, “Little Miss Sunshine”, etc. That’s probably what he wants to do, move on to do movies.

A lot of big movie stars today get their start from TV shows like Tom Hanks (Bossom Buddies), Robin Williams (Mork & Mindy), Adam Sandler (SNL), the list can go on. Steve is on his way there.

“The Office” is my favorite TV show too, but I’m actually proud of him that he’s leaving. He’s a phenomenal actor, always liked him. This guy will win an Oscar one day whenever he picks the right role in the future.

I am worried about Bret Michaels like everyone else…

Bret Michaels, being in the hospital again for something serious sent a huge scare through everyone in the world. Why should we worry about a famous person to someone we don’t even know? Not only that he’s a rock n’ roll legend and help changed the music industry in the 80’s, another reason people worry about him is all these rock star deaths we’ve been having as of late. People worry because he could be next.

Again I was never a fan of Poison but I respect them for the success they achieved. In my understanding, the band is still together. Bret still plays with Poison in occassional tours.

I wonder what this means for his appearance on “Celebrity Apprentice”? I’m sure the show still have a few more episodes of his to air, but Bret haven’t been fired from the show yet. So he’s still on. Not sure what NBC and Donald Trump would do with him for the show, but I’m sure we’ll hear something soon. It’s great to see The Donald actually cares for Bret, even though Trump gave Bret a difficult time on the show.

I hope Bret survives too. It’s a sad thing what he’s going through.

BREAKING NEWS: Bret Michaels hospitalized again…but this time it’s for Brain Hemorrhage…

Bret Michaels who is the current star of the TV reality series, “Celebrity Apprentice” has been rushed to the hospital again. This time he’s suffered a major brain hemorrhage and he’s having a rough time at the hospital. Things aren’t looking good for him.

I hope he lives and gets well soon. I wasn’t that big of a Poison fan, but I do respect Bret for his legacy.

I hate to predict death, but it looks like he maybe the next in line along with those dead rock stars. This would be a huge loss in the music industry if we lose him next.

Not A Cool Video: Mary J. Blige, Steve Vai, and Orianthi butchers “Stairway to Heaven”…

I like Steve Vai and Orianthi, and all. Both are amazing guitarists, but why would they go on Idol to cover “Stairway” with Mary J. Blige? I know they’re trying to be cool by covering Led Zeppelin, but this cover version is such an embarrassment, it makes me want to vomit all over the place. Did Simon Cowell actually enjoy this? This is such a nightmare performance. I know Mary J. Blige is trying to be rock n’ roll, but she doesn’t fit the genre. Sorry, Mary J., go back to R&B where you belong. She’s getting a pretty big backlash for covering this song too. What were Jimmy Page and Robert Plant thinking when they gave her the permission to cover it? Wow, this is terrible.
