Anastacia - Stupid Little Things

Hot New Song - Anastacia is Back
Anastacia is a survivor, she has survived a lot of hardships which includes being diagnosed with breast cancer twice. The last time when this happened she came up with this wonderful song Left Outside Alone which is my personal favorite song of hers and this proved to be a big hit topping the Billboard Hot 100 European charts for 15 weeks. Now she is back the second time around after overcoming breast cancer again, and she sounds as fresh as ever and her second innings this time around will be better than ever.

Stupid little things is the lead single for Anastacia's upcoming album Resurrection which is due to be released on the 5th of May, 2014 and this single will get released on April 4, 2014. The song starts with an amazing beats, very Kanye West kind of song and her vocals soared from the first line of the song, her distinct voice which actually got her into trouble before she got her recording contract sounds better than ever. This song is very addictive and by the time she sings the bridge on the song and get back to the chorus, you can't help but sing along, and you just can't get it out of your head.
The song did sound quite similar with her previous work starting from I'm Outta Love and the bridge is very similar to the bridge of the song I mentioned above Left Outside Alone. So, if you're looking for a fresh new sound of Anastacia, you might be a little bit disappointed but those of you who love her from day one, the authentic and distinct music of hers, you will love it and yes I love this song. Here is the link for the song , please check out and yes, Anastacia is back in the game for your pleasure

WWE Total Divas is back with Season 2 on E!

And its hotter and spicier than ever....

I am a big fan of WWE ever since it was WWF ,when I thought the fight is real, and I am a reality show kind of person. So for me, it was a match made in heaven when WWE and E! network announced their collaboration last year that they were working on a reality show together following the lives of six divas in and out of the ring. I followed the first season religiously and i loved the show very much that i actually watched each of the episodes more than once and it was a breakout reality hit show last year.
This season, there is a little shake up on the cast, the most boring diva last season Jojo is now replaced by my favorite rookie last year Summer Rae. Apart from this, the cast are still the same along with their boyfriends the Bella Twins, Natalya, the Funkadactyls and the super hot Eva Marie, it started off with a bang with a riff between Nattie and Summer and the drama unfolds one by one.
First, we saw Eva eloped and got married to Jonathan without her parents approval ( her parents didn't approve their relationship last season )and as the episode goes, we saw the screaming dad once again who can't accept the fact that her little girl is married now. Then, another surprise Nikki Bella has broken up with her boyfriend the superstar John Cena and she is currently going through the pain of seeing her ex-boyfriend at work, after the end of season one she had moved out from John's apartment and is now living in her mom's condo with her mom. At the end of the episode, we saw John standing on the sea side with flowers in his hand and we can only wait what went down in the next episode.
Apart from these two main storylines, we also saw Brie and Daniel shopping around for their wedding, Nattie is having a little bit too much and was getting a bit close to Cameron's boyfriend Vinnie, this ends up really fuuny because their fight caught the eye of a cop who threatened to lock them up in a jail. At the end of the episode, they showed a clip of whats brewing in season two and I can't wait for all the drama that will happen especially when Summer slap the daylight out of Nattie, the wedding of Jon and Naomi and all of them(LOL). Here is the Season 1 Episode 1 of Total Divas, do watch it, i am in love with it and am sure you will too

Lindsay Lohan and her 36 Hook Ups!!

The kiss and tell story of Lindsay Lohan
As soon as I reached home from work this morning, i came across a breaking news that's music to my ears, Lindsay Lohan has written down 36 A Listers that she has slept with and  left it in her room at the Beverley Hills Hotel. In Touch Weekly has got the copy of it and they are going to expose it week after week. We all have those nights when we have a get together with friends, talk about our awesome and not so awesome exes, make fun of them, remembering the good times and the bad times but for Lindsay being Lindsay she forgot to trash it, the housekeeping personnel got hold of it and sold it to In Touch.
Currently there are 18 names that are being exposed and the rest are going to be exposed in their coming issues and please have a look at the original paper that was left in the hotel, am a little amused that she knows how to write
If we look at the list, all of them are actually relevant and am sure sure there will be a lot of girls who would like to be in her shoes. The only thing that surprised me though is Justin Timberlake, i didn't see this coming at all but then again its Hollywood where everyone is a player player and everybody would like to have some fun one way or the other.
I do not think that Lindsay has done anything wrong, but what i refuse to understand is the privacy policy of the Beverley Hills Hotel. Being a part of the hotel industry, one of the main priorities that we have for our guests is their privacy, the guest paid for the room and what happen in their room has to stay in the room, it shows that the hotel is not safe for guests and they will have to watch out for anything and everything they do.
I am not going to judge on Lindsay this time because she is 27 now and i know for a fact a nobody from this city would have bedded more than 36 nobodies here in the same city. I just want her to watch out because there are shameless cannibals out there who is trying to milk on her fame and the mistakes she has done all through the years, I personally love her for her talent and I can't wait for Mean Girls 2.
On the hindsight, it can also be a publicity stunt from her with a little help from In Touch and the Hotel itself, we all know that she has a new docu-series named Lindsay airing on OWN every sunday at 10 pm. Here is a throwback picture of her from Parent Trap, the movie we first met and fell in love with the cute little Linday Lohan.

Throwback Thursday - Pop Gem

Boyzone - No Matter What
The other day, my colleague and i were singing this song in the office, then it has been stucked in my mind ever since. I know this song is not as it sounds like, all sweet and sugary with Stephen's vocals but when you listen to it very closely to the lyrics, it is a very angry song and not at all how it sounds like.
This song No Matter What is the biggest selling single and the only hit of Boyzone to be popular in the United States, it peaked at #1 in the UK Singles chart selling 1.13 million and another 3 million copies worldwide. It is written by Andrew Llyod Webber and Jim Steinman for the 1996 musical play Whistle Down the Wind, and covered and popularized by Boyzone. It is the fourth single from Boyzone's album Where We Belong, the success of this song brought the parent album back to #1 after hiatus of 4 months since debuting at #1 on the UK Albums Chart.
No Matter What  has never been my favorite song of Boyzone but over the time, i find out that it actually doesn't sound bad at all. Being a fan of Ronan Keating  ever since Love Me for a Reason, i love the smoothy vocals of him harmonizing  with the late Stephen Gately's  breezy vocals, when i watch them performing this song without him, it makes me emotional many times.This song is an evergreen song will go down in history as one of the biggest hit by a boyband and please check the link below to know why :

Cheryl Cole is back on the X Factor!!

Bad News or Good News??
This morning, as soon as I woke up I saw Cheryl Cole's update on Twitter that she is going to be back on the X Factor this year, I screeched out of my bed. I don't like the idea of her back on the show at and this is not just hating but i have my reasons why I want her to say goodbye to the show forever.
When Cheryl was on the show between 2008-2010 she was the darling of the show and was sitted next to Simon Cowell, then her popularity decreased as Danii took over the show and actually won it twice and won the poll on UK's favorite X Factor Judge. That's when Simon stepped up and moved her across the Atlantic as a judge on the X Factor USA which has now been scrapped, she ventured into a land where people mistook her for Sheryl Crow and the contestants didn't know her name and barely understood her. She was fired from the show only to be replaced by Nicole who was supposed to be the co-host of the show, then the bad press came in, a riff between her and Simon and she went incognito for a very long time.
Then She went into the studio and released the album Under the Sun only to be beaten by Justin Bieber on the charts even though Call My Name has proven to be another smash hit for her, and then came the Girls Aloud reunion. The Girls Aloud reunion was supposed to be the reunion of the year and they managed to get all the slots in every important gig throughout the year including bagging the Children in Need official single but it failed to create ripples and both the album and the two singles flopped (even though the I love the song Beautiful 'cause you love me).

Now its only the right time for her to go back to the X Factor because she doesn't have a job in hand but I call it a desperate attempt to stay relevant. Call up Jennifer Lopez who is back after a hiatus on American Idol and learn your lesson girl, she is now sinking with the Idol ship on the lowest rated American Idol season ever. If you ever think of calling up someone to revive your career, call up your ex-husband Ashley Cole instead of Simon Cowell, am sure he will be more than happy to help you, after all he is the one who is responsible for you being more popular than the rest of the girls in Girls Aloud, Ashley even let you keep your last name when you should be back to Tweedy 3 years ago. Anyway am wishing you Cheryl Cole all the best and hope its third time lucky for you on the X Factor.

The Three Breakout Stars from the Oscars 2014!!

Edgar The Pizza Guy
The pizza guy co-owned the Big Mamma's and Papa's Pizzeria in Hollywood with his brother. When Ellen looked for a pizza for the show, they happened to be the nearest pizzeria nearby the Dolby theatre, and he never knew that he was going to be on stage at the Oscar's. He loves Julia Roberts and in his words it was a dream come true for him especially being from Russia struggling to make a living in America. And now, he is all over the place including the Ellen Show and everyone's talking about him.

Peter Nyong'o
When you look at Ellen's selfie that happened on the Oscar night, there is a person in everyone's head, who is that guy smiling in the right, i haven't seen him anywhere and why is he there? Yes, that little boy is a freshman college student in Florida who happen to be the little brother of the Best Supporting Actress winner Lupita Nyong'o who goes by the name of Peter Nyong'o. Digging deeper into the story, he happened to take a selfie from almost all the stars that night and its amazing how an unknown boy from Kenya stole the limelight from all the A-Listers in Hollywood.

Liza Minelli 
Everyone knows Liza Minelli and it is kind of stupid to put her as the last musketeer on this list but as we well know, she hasn't been in the news lately and yes the Oscar night was her night for all the wrong reasons. 
First, it was her attire on the red carpet which is the weirdest of the weird, then came the drag queen jokes from Ellen and her hugging Lupita as if they have known each other for life when she won the statuette. And the biggest one is someone from the audience taking a picture from the back of her trying to be in the picture when Ellen took the famous selfie, and yes Liza is back in the headlines and she created more splash than Cate Blanchett who won the Best Actress category. Go Girl, More Power to Yaaaa!!

P.S. John Travolta is not worth mentioning here because he ruined the big night of Idina Menzel, his act was stupid and idiotic and it will go down in history as one of the most bizarre thing that happened at the Oscars.

Is Leonardo Dicaprio Snubbed From the Oscars??

My Thoughts

I know this is coming and as much as i love Leo,i have a feeling that he is not going to be the one Jennifer Lawrence called out for the Best Actor trophy yet again this year. And yes i was correct, it was Matthew who walked away with the trophy last Sunday night.

And if you are going to ask me if Leo is snubbed from the Oscars, my answer to you will be NO, and am going to tell you why :-

Firstly, when you watch both the movies, as much as they are male driven performance oriented movie, you can feel the emotions of Ron Woodroof more than Jordan Belfort.

Secondly, Leo's movie deals with gambling, sex, drugs and shows the perks while Matthew's movie is sex, drugs and rock and roll but shows the other side of it (HIV)

Thirdly, as much as both the movies are biographies,the subject they dealt is so much different and Dallas Buyers Club is much more sensitive comparing to The Wolf of Wall Street which the Oscars love.

Lastly, both the actors are great but Matthew simply did a better job than Leo in a movie which requires so much for him to do,  get skinny as hell,  not a big budget commercial movie, shot in 25 days and they were looking for a distributor.



And yes movie wise, The Wolf is my much more entertaining and directed by a well known Director but in my opinion i believe Matthew and Jared compliment each other so well comparing the more than annoying Jonah in that movie even though they both got an Oscar nod in their respective categories,and yes they both win.


My suggestions to Leo, do a serious role , lose some weight or gain a lot of weight, get out of a Scorsese's movie and venture into something less commercial and one fine day, your time will come to say your acceptance speech in the big stage. 
 We love you and we want you to win the Oscar more than you want!!
