Well, the results have happened and we have four outcasts - Amy, Joanne, Garrett and Colton. I was sad to see Joanne go. She is soooo pretty! Plus, nerves had gotten to her and maybe she deserved another chance,right? Wrong! The Idol public voted and decided to boot a sista. Oh well. We still have a couple more sistas left. Hopefully one of them will make it to the top 12.
Ciao for now!

It's been a crazy week so far....here it is early Thursday morning....almost ten minutes past midnight and I'm still awake...glad it's vacation and that I don't have to go to work tomorrow (even though I'll be up early anyway)....I've spent this week in reality show nirvana and here's the recap...
Monday - 2/18 - Flavor of Love 3 - After being dumped by Hoopz and then dumping Delishis...Flava is back on the prowl with a new crop of drama queens...already causing a stir is Sinceer and Rayna...Sinceer is supposedly an alchoholic and Rayna(who looks awfully familiar) is the beautiful, model-esque "B" who is looking to run over the competition with her fierceness. These season looks like a real winner.
Also on 2/18, the Sakt & Pepa Show, a growing favorite of mine, Salt & Pep hit Atlantic City with Spin, Pep of course is having a blast, gambling and carrying on with dudes, Spin is DJing a gig and wanted her girls to check her out, the club is bangingm Altantic City is poppin' and Salt just wants to go home and be with her kids....admirable but BORING! I know that she's into religion and all, and that's all good, but live a LITTLE! There's nothing wrong with having a good time - get ur dance on, hang out, shoot some craps, win a little money...Salt is acting like a nun and Pep was having none of that.
Tuesday - 2/19 - American Idol -The Top Twelve Guys - The guys were bringing the blah...as Idol's 7th season with the Top 24 got off to a rocky start. There were a few bright spots, David A. 17, was very good, David. H, the first one out the block was aiight, Michael Johns, who closed the show -closed the show. He's definitely a Top 12 contender. Simon was rude and cruel as usual, Paula looked drunk and Randy needs to stop sounding like an over the hill teenager - 'Dawg" isn't in the teen venacular right now, Randy. Learn a new word.
Wednesday - 2/20 - I am loving Wednesdays! I was in reality show OVERLOAD! First, there was Idol, 2 hours, top 12 girls. Also on, the cycle 10 premiere of America's Next Top Model, 14 girls, and the prospects are strong this cycle, and then my other fav - Project Runway. Design and Fashion meet and create the next top designer. It was their Reunion show. Christian, Mr. Fierce, won the $10K fan favorite prize. He was given his fake check by Season 3 fan fave winner and my personal fave - Michael Knight, who announced that he was launchinga a new fragrance - I will buy it! I was flicking channels all evening. A caught a little bit of everything.
Thursday - 2/21 - Idol Results Show - 2 guys and 2 girls are going home - Who will it be? We shall see.
Ciao for now!

I just finished watching the Grammys and I must say I was thoroughly entertained. From Kanye West's tribute to his recently departed mother to Tina Turner's red hot return and the highly stylish, almost avant-garde outfits of Rihanna, the Grammys delivered on its 50th anniversary. I laughed as Amy Winehouse's jaw dropped when her song "Rehab" won Record of the Year. I gasped when Beyonce stepped on Tina's foot during their dance routine. I was surprised to see the return of 80s group "The Time" and wondered aloud at how Prince maintains an ever-youthfil visage. It was indeed a star-studded night. The Beatles tribute was colorful. Jay-Z and Rihanna engaged in playful banter onstage. Kanye was jokingly dissed by one of the country music award winners. I'm glad that I watched the show.
Now, I just read that Obama received a Grammy for his "Hope" book - I didn't even know that he had been nominated! Congrats, Barack! Also, double congrats on his sweeping victories on Saturday and Sunday. The Obama train is picking up steam and passing the Clinton juggernaut. I am so happy for him. He is a man with a plan and the vision to carry it out. I think we all need to start practicing President Obama. So much for that "fairy tale", huh Bill?
That's all for now. Good night!
