Our Bieber Experience was on June 15th, 2012 and June 18th, 2012. We wanted to go to the Today Show so bad but my mom didn’t know if she was able to get us passes. The day before the concert, we got a call saying we have 3 VIP passes to the Today Show. Even when you have passes, you still need to get there early. We got to 30 Rock at about 3:00am on Friday morning. We were about the 5th person in line! We couldn’t believe what was happening. We waited forever until he finally came out to do his soundcheck. Before that, Scooter came out. He had to tell us not to pull on Justin because he could get hurt. He was telling us to listen when he looked right into my camera. We were in the centre/front row and Justin looked amazing. All the other girls around us weren’t as crazy as us. I (Juliana) was freaking out when he came to the center. I touched his abs when no one else was looking and then he looked straight down at me, smiled and lifted his shirt up. I honestly thought I was going to faint. I grabbed his hand a bunch of times and touched him a billion times. It was so much fun. After the Today Show we realized you can never see Justin too many times. We found out about Justins “secret” show at the Apollo Theatre in Harlem. We knew you had to wait online at Macy’s Herald Square to get the tickets to the show so we got the tickets. When we got into the theatre, everyone was rushing in and it was super crowded. As we were being pushed, we heard someone say to us, “Excuse me ladies.” We looked up and it was Alfredo Flores! We couldn’t believe it was him. We asked for a picture and he said of course! We got our seats and we had really good seats! While waiting for Justin to come out, we were getting bored so we went into the lobby. It was totally empty except for one person. Kenny Hamilton! We asked for a picture and I asked if he said he remembered me from the Christmas Tree Lighting! I was freaking out. Towards the end of the concert, all the dancers and crew came out to thank us for coming. The night after was the MTV Special where Justin sang “Die In Your Arms”. My two friends were at the concert and I wasn’t. They saw Dan and were yelling his name but he wouldn’t answer. Then when they yelled,”DAN DO YOU KNOW JULIANA?!” And he said, “Yeah were friends!” When they told me this I couldn’t believe it! We had an amazing week with Justin and can’t wait for the Believe Tour! -@jkravxoxo @kaylainnes Follow this link: Our Bieber Experience was on June 15th, 2012 and June 18th,…

Jennifer Lopez on American Idol: Time to Go

Posted on July 12, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Expect those American Idol judging rumors to only grow louder now. Appearing this morning on The Today Show , Jennifer Lopez was asked about her status on the Fox smash and told Natalie Morales: “I love everybody, I love the guys [Randy Jackson, Steven Tyler and host Ryan Seacrest], but I am thinking it’s time for me to go and do other things I love to do like films.” This isn’t the first time that J. Lo has hinted at a departure, though it was seen as a contract negotiation a year ago. However, following a disappointing ratings season, producers may want to go in a wholly different direction on Season 12. Potential replacement, according to recent chatter, include Adam Lambert , Miley Cyrus… and Charlie Sheen ? Do you want to see Jennifer Lopez as a judge next season?

Matt Lauer Divorce: Averted by Savannah Guthrie Announcement!

Posted on June 28, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Ann Curry is out as co-host of The Today Show , Savannah Guthrie is in and Matt Laurer’s marriage is safe. Wait… what?!? The National Enquirer claims Lauer’s wife, Annette Roque, was very concerned that her husband was pushing for long-time correspondent Natalie Morales to take over the seat next to him every morning, a situation that allegedly would have led to Roque filing for divorce. Why? Well, take a look at Morales… “When she heard about Ann getting the boot, the first thing she told Matt was she didn’t want him cozying up any closer to Natalie,” a tabloid source said of Lauer and Roque . “In fact, Annette drew a line in the sand and said if he pushed show bosses to make Natalie his new co-host, she’d divorce him.” This isn’t the first time that split rumors have sprung up between this couple. In May 2010, insiders also told the Enquirer that Lauer was having an affair . Nothing came of the story, the marriage remained intact and now, thanks to the hiring of Guthrie, it appears as if the same applies here.

It all started on April 28th, 2012 when I came to NYC to look…

Posted on June 28, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

It all started on April 28th, 2012 when I came to NYC to look for Justin. I am from Endicott, New York and I live about 4 hours away, but I don’t care because it is for Justin. I came up looking for Justin because my friend told me where he was staying, so I went to his hotel and I waited for him.  There were only about 15 people there so I thought for sure he would stop. I waited about an hour and none of us could figure out which way Justin would come out of.  Justin’s driver pulled into the garage in the back of the hotel so we went there hoping he would stop. It was 12:44 pm and the garage started going up.  All of a sudden Justin’s car was pulling out and HE WAS IN IT!!!  He rolled down the window and took pictures with all of us. He told me he loved me and it was amazing!  It was a GREAT day. Then on Friday, June 15th, 2012 I went to the Today Show because I had fan passes. I could barely see him and it was so upsetting. After the concert me and my friend went inside Rockefeller Plaza, where all of Justin’s people were leaving out of.  I got a picture with Alfredo, Big Sean, DJ Tay James, Justin’s one blonde dancer, and Scooter Braun. Justin left right after the Today Show and went to Toronto. I drove home after the Today Show and thought, I will never meet Justin again, and that was a once and a lifetime chance, and it will never happen again. When Justin came back on Monday I couldn’t go to his signing or the concert at Apollo because I had testing.  My life was terrible.  On Tuesday June 19, 2012 I decided I will go to NYC that night to try and meet Justin again. That night I went to NYC after my Bio regent. I got to his hotel at 9:40 pm and 10 minutes later Justin ran into his hotel and nobody saw him. I was almost in tears thinking he isn’t coming out and I was so upset. Luckily Justin’s car was waiting outside and I thought maybe he will come back out. All of us waited about 5 minutes and Justin came out. He walked into the crowd and took two pictures with me. I accidentally covered the flash so it didn’t come out that good so I asked Justin for another one, he said sure! Then he left. I decided that I was going to wait and stay and try to get him again. Later that night I got a picture with Ryan Good.  Everyone kept leaving during the night because everyone thought he switched hotels. Well I ended up waiting by myself.   It was 3:30 in the morning on June 20th, 2012 when Justin’s car pulled up in front of the hotel.  Justin came out and he took a picture with me! He then started walking away and he rolled up his sleeve and goes, “Do you like my new tattoo?  That’s where i just was, getting it done.” I said yes and he was so nice! I WAS BY MYSELF!!! I drove home that day.   When I got home I got an email saying that I got chosen to go to the Fuse recording .  I called my friend and asked her to come up with me tomorrow to go see Justin. On Thursday June 21st, 2012 me and my friend drove up to NYC to go to the Fuse.  When we got there, we waited in line.   I asked Justin a question during the Fuse and he answered it.  He was so nice and sweet.  Later that night after Fuse, me and my friend went to Justin’s hotel and were hoping to meet Justin.  Sadly Justin left and went to a dentist appointment and we didn’t see him.   We met Ryan Good, Alfredo, and Scooter that night luckily.  That week Justin’s album came out I went to NYC THREE times, driving four hours each way!  I am so thankful and happy that I was fortunate enough to meet Justin and have the experiences I did with him.   I remember I used to be that girl that would read these experiences and cry because I wanted to meet him so badly, and now I am one of those girls writing this experience .  Thank you so much for reading this, and I hope to one day be reading your experience as well. NEVER SAY NEVER and don’t give up. Your day will come when you meet Justin and words will not be able to describe how you will feel. Don’t forget to BELIEVE. I love you Justin.  -@marisagasbarra Read the original post: It all started on April 28th, 2012 when I came to NYC to look…

Savannah Guthrie or Ann Curry: Who Would You Rather… Watch?

Posted on June 26, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Ann Curry will be fired from The Today Show any moment now. So reports TMZ, which claims the anchor and the NBC morning program are simply haggling over contract details . Curry is owed $20 million over the next two years and reportedly wants to pocket that dough and take her walking papers, while the network wants to give her half that amount and stick her as a foreign correspondent. Either way, Savannah Guthrie has already struck a deal with Today and will take over for Curry as soon as she leaves, which prompts the obvious question: Which reporter would you rather… watch?

Blue Ivy Carter Named Honorary Citizen of Croatian Island

Posted on June 25, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Blue Ivy Carter is quite the worldly baby. Beyonce and Jay-Z’s little girl, five months, has been named an honorary citizen of the Croatian Island of Hvar, where the pair vacationed last summer. The tribute stems from a blog post Beyonce posted in March, and from a moment on the island that may well have inspired the little girl’s unique name. “We woke up this morning, took a nice little walk, passed by this beautiful blue tree,” the then-pregnant Beyonce shared in a video released on her blog. “I think it’s Blue Ivy, which would be quite appropriate!” Tourism to Hvar has reportedly increased since the clip was posted; the island was even named as Lonely Planet’s fifth best vacation destination in 2012. Major Pjerino Bebic wrote in a letter to the family: “The story of the origin of the name of your daughter has brought enormous attention and therefore tourist promotion to the town and island of Hvar.” “Because of this, I have decided to confer on your daughter the status of honorary citizen of the town of Hvar.” Congratulations, Blue Ivy!

Regis Philbin and Kathie Lee Gifford to Reunite on The Today Show?

Posted on June 25, 2012 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

How might the potential firing of Ann Curry bring about a reunion between one of TV’s most beloved tandems? Well… Rumors are circulating that if when Curry is let go by The Today Show , her seat will be filled by Hota Kotb , who currently hosts the program’s fourth hour alongside Kathie Lee Gifford. This, of course, would leave an empty chair alongside Kathie Lee… and it might be occupied by Regis Philbin, sources say! Philbin and Gifford, of course, spent years by each other’s side on Live! every morning until the latter left in 2001 and was replaced by Kelly Ripa. Regis then retired from the program this year. NBC “absolutely loves Regis , and want to formally sign him to become a special contributor to Today and work with the network on entertainment specials,” an insider tells Radar Online. “If Hoda is chosen to become Matt Lauer’s co-anchor, Regis would be the natural choice to replace her.” Would you want to see Regis and Kathie Lee reunite on Today?
