Weird Ethnic and Photoshopped…is what I like to call Arlenis Sosa Pena…that’s my nickname for her…even though I’ve never heard of her or met her…I figure giving randoms pet names…is just the level of creep I want to be…and that’s why I am going to start busting it at starbucks or with my wait staff who can’t escape me…because it is their job to humor me….just to see how they react to my love… Either way Arlenis Sosa Pena is in some boring catalog shots…and they bore the fuck out of me….but they are half naked enough to pretend they matter.
If you’re going to organize a protest, you might as well do it the Soviet way which is more hardcore than how Americans do it…cuz it involves a group of girls pissing on a picture of the president, it’s a far more fun than listening to people whine on facebook. Go big or go home.. I don’t know or care what they are protesting, I am just all about their cause.
A gleesome threesome of limited releases keeping the theaters warm this weekend, starting out with Penelope Cruz in the arthouse drama Twice Born (2012). Penelope plays an infertile woman who adopts a child in the flick, but in real life Ms. Cruz was still breastfeeding her own young son during filming, which leads to exceptional views of her jumbo dairy-missiles. Also in theaters, there’s sexy skinny dipper Emma Booth hanging out in the Australian thriller Swerve (2011), and Emma Lung showing off her chest warmers for the equally thrilling Crave (2012). More after the jump!
Last night, NBC aired a three-hour live performance of The Sound of Music, the world’s most famous and beloved musical of all time, starring Carrie Underwood. The country star played Maria von Trapp, a role originated onstage by Mary Martin and belonging forever to Julie Andrews, who starred in the 1965 film. It was a project seemingly destined for failure and ripe with opportunities for public mockery and unflattering comparisons to the original classic. But was NBC’s The Sound of Music really as bad as advertised? Underwood is, by all accounts, a talented singer and a terrific person, and came off as both last night. As an actress, on the other hand, she seemed … Pedestrian? Miscast? For many, it was hard to put your finger on. The Sound of Music has a big cast, but it is Maria’s show, and many reviewers felt that the American Idol winner lacked the gravitas to get it done. With her on camera were theater veterans Audra McDonald, Christian Borle and Laura Bernanti, along with Michael Campayno and Ariane Reinhardt. Her love interest, Captain von Trapp, was played by Stephen Moyer ( True Blood ), who also sang better than you might think. But beyond that? The chemistry wasn’t as palpable as it could have been. Musicals can work on TV, but it can be tough. It’s not true television and not true theater, making the jokes and dialogue feel a little stilted at times. If nothing else, you have to give The Sound of Music credit as great theater, even if it felt a little out of place on prime time TV in the format it was presented. What did you think of NBC’s The Sound of Music? Loved it!! Liked it enough. Not a huge fan … Hated it! That sucked! View Poll »
Call it the Kardashian kurse. Or just a combination of overexposure, public fatigue and being an unlikable, egotistical blowhard more often than not. Either way, Kanye West is losing his cool … and not just in the sense of blowing a gasket every time a photographer so much as glances at him. DON’T TALK EVER! Everybody Hates ‘Ye The rapper’s decline in popularity isn’t just anecdotal. West’s concert this week brought just 4,500 fans to the Sprint Center, a venue built for 19,000. He had to cancel several other shows throughout his nationwide tour and drew criticism when he stopped a Florida concert after only three songs. In that case, Yeezus demanded that the lights be turned off before launching a profanity-laced tirade at the tech staff and storming off the stage. One can understand how this might alienate some fans … and his association with Kim Kardashian and her family may not be upping his appeal. “We are often drawn to people who have an ego and confidence that is derived from their talent,” notes human behavior expert Patrick Wanis. But conversely, “an empty ego, based on a fake self-inflated image and concept, creates an over powering sense of desperation and superficiality.” West’s talent is real. As are quotes in which he likens himself to Jesus, Michael Jordan, Steve Jobs, Nelson Mandela, Michelangelo and Michael Jackson. After a while, you can’t help but roll your eyes. Kanye West – “Bound 2” (Music Video) Or be offended, when he blurts out things like “black people don’t have the same level of connections as Jewish people,” as he recently opined. And then there’s Kim. A study released in November suggests that his connection to the Kardashians may be a reason for his popularity decline. Q Scores, a website marketers use to measure recognition, reported that West’s popularity has dipped a whopping 66 percent since he got with Kim. It makes sense if you think about it. “When putting two egotistical, self serving individuals together, you’ll create a rather vile spark,” says California-based PR expert Angie Meyer-Olszewski. “And in times of economic hardship across the country, bragging about materialism is typically frowned upon. The Kardashian brand is a sinking ship.” “Anybody who jumps on board will eventually fall. A successful celebrity in his own right, Kanye made a horrible strategic decision by engaging with Kim.” Not only that, they procreated and made North West ! A cute baby, yes. And also a link to Kim that will never be broken in the eyes of the public. Kim is also infiltrating his professional life. His video for “Bound 2,” co-starring his topless fiancée and baby mama, become an instant laughingstock, parodied by Seth Rogen and James Franco . So how can ‘Ye turn this thing around? Kanye West Attacks Photographer “He can definitely win back fans, as soon as the attention moves back to music since he is such a talented artist,” says PR company owner Elissa Buchter. “The amount of ego you’re allowed to get away with is directly proportional to success of your projects,” she notes, so he has to put up or shut up. As long as Kanye West rap songs are on top of the charts, this expert believes, “his romantic life isn’t going to crush his credibility as a superstar.” Even if Kim and Kris Jenner are mentioned in the same breath as he is every time his name is spoken or his image comes to mind? Stay tuned.
If you’re looking for a used engagement ring that Satan herself (or at least a Pennsylvania woman) once wore, a guy is selling exactly that on Craigslist. It can be all yours for $1,800! Guy Sells Engagement Ring “Once Worn By Satan” For a brief period, the diamond was worn by “Satan herself,” the Craigslist user writes, before describing the abject terror he was subjected to as a result. Let’s just say that the affordable rate already accounts for some of the risks the buyer assumes in taking possession of this purportedly toxic stone. Swarms of locusts, fire, brimstone, etc. Sounds pretty bad for such a nice-looking symbol of love. Their engagement apparently didn’t end well . His full posting reads: “For sale I have a 1.5 ct total weight engagement ring set in 14K white gold. The ring is in like new condition, only worn for a short period of time by Satan herself.” “Comes with the original box. Very pretty ring. Lower setting so the diamonds won’t snag on everything. Diamonds along the sides and in the channel setting show off light from all sides.” Sounds awesome for under two grand! But there’s a but coming. A whole bunch of them, to be exact. We’re talking Biblical proportions of buts here. “Originally purchased from Littman’s for a sum of money far greater than I am comfortable admitting.” “Warning: ring may be cursed as it tends to leave a path of destruction behind it.” “Possible events associated with this ring include but are not limited to: damage sustained to house, vehicle, heart, downed powerlines, fallen trees, and swarms of locust.” Basically, it’s yours for the aforementioned rate, but buyer beware. “I would highly recommend taking action to counter the whirlwind of bad mojo that surround this piece of jewelry.” “Should consider having curse removed by voodoo priest or something before presenting to loved one. Other than that a very nice piece of jewelry.” “Looking to sell this soon before it brings any more bad luck into my life and I’d rather have cash. If not sold by Christmas I plan to throw it into the fires of Mordor.” So, there you have it. Any takers?
Reign Season 1 Episode 7 taught fans of the freshman CW drama plenty of things. Specifically, Olivia is not always intelligent, Greer is not always willing to play nice, and Diane is not always the passive onlooker she often appears to be. Most significantly of all, we learned that Catherine is one complex character. Whether she’s a hero, a villain or somewhere in between remains to be seen, but with each passing week, we get more and more hooked on her diva-like antics. Miss it last night?

Now that Anna Kournikova ‘s retired, there’s not enough hot chicks playing tennis out there any more these days, which means it’s much harder to satisfy my thing for sweaty chicks in short skirts grunting loudly. Luckily though, I found these pictures of Malin Akerman filming a few tennis scenes for her show Trophy Wife . Granted, there’s no audio of her grunting to go along with it, but I should be able to add that part in myself. » view all 12 photos Photos: PacificCoastNews
