  • It’s Official: Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries Divorcing

    October 31st, 2011

    If I may take a moment to get on my soapbox and vent a little disgust for the simple waste of money these celebrities go through when they get married and divorced, married and divorced over and over.

    Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries are reportedly going their separate ways after weeks of speculation that their fledgling marriage was already in trouble after mere weeks of marital status.  Of course, with the type of media scrutiny these Kardashian girls willingly under go, I don’t know how any of them could ever attempt any sort of normal relationship until it all blows over – which it will.

    Their wedding cost a stunning 10 million dollars. What a total waste of money when there are people in this world just scraping by. Couldn’t they at least give it a whirl in Vegas?  Sheesh.

    Apparently Kim has hired a powerful attorney so she doesn’t have to pay him too much or anything at all in spousal support. This is the second marriage for her and the first for him. He was five years her junior.

    I don’t know much about their relationship nor do I care to.  I just have to wonder why celebrities even try marriage sometimes.  It seems like you should have a clue whether something is going to endure or not if it only lasts mere months after the marriage starts.

    So, another Hollywood divorce to report on. Are you shocked?  I’m not.

    American Horror Story Not Bad At All…

    October 19th, 2011

    Ok, so my hubby and I got hooked into watching the latest creepy horror show.  We started watching Walking Dead again (which by the way is way better this season already than the last crappy season), and we are also now watching “ American Horror Story”.

    American Horror Story is a television show that definitely isn’t for kids. There’s lots of racy content, but that’s no surprise since it’s partially from the guys who brought us Nip/Tuck which is one of the more guilty pleasures in TV land.

    It tells the story of a house that has really messed up the lives of whoever lives in it. But yet we still don’t know exactly how or why three episodes in. But we’re interested – and that’s what’s important. It’s got a sort of stylish look to it too, which adds to its appeal.

    The only thing I don’t like is that people do obviously stupid things, like not telling their spouse about an experience the definitely was wrong on all kinds of counts.  Or keeping silent about something that could change the course of events for the better. 

    The only other thing I might not like about it is that they seem to be going for some obvious shock value. Other than that, this show could very well be added to our list of “guilty pleasures” – somewhat fluffy, but very fun to watch and with pretty people in it! 

    It’s not nearly as smart as say a Twin Peaks is, but it’s got that somewhat hip flair to it. 

     

    Hugh Jackman is Awesome!

    October 11th, 2011

    So my husband took me to a Raw show (WWE) a couple weeks ago here by where we live in Cleveland. It was at the Quicken Loans Arena. I must say, I”m not a huge fan of the WWE. Unlike my husband, I didn’t grow up on the fake wrestling stuff, so it always seemed totally cheesy and over the top to me.

    I must admit though, I am a little entertained by it sometimes. Some of the stories are so funny, and some of the wrestlers are actually really witty – like CM Punk, who in my opinion is probably the brainest of them all, and hence the  most entertaining.

    But after seeing the Monday Night Raw at the Q a couple weeks ago, who I truly became even more a fan of was Aussie actor Hugh Jackman. He’s the only celebrity that I’ve seen on that show who actually got into it a lot.  I haven’t seen all their guest stars, but I’ve seen enough to know that they usually look and feel awkward when they are out there.

    Hugh looked like he felt right at home, and he really seemed to be getting into it, which really played to the crowd.  He’s earned a true fan for life!  He’s a real entertainer, and an excellent actor, which is rare these days.  And he’s absolutely gorgeous, there’s that too!

    New Season of Sunny in Philadelphia Good

    October 3rd, 2011

    We couldn’t wait for the new season of It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia to hit. Now, our wait is over, and we actually had a couple piled up on our DVR because we had so many obligations other than watching TV for a while!

    The new season is pretty good so far. The first episode got off to a bit of a slow start, but the second the gang was already hilarious in their trip to the Jersey Shore. My husband and I were hoping and praying that we would get to see Mac and Dennis, and maybe even Frank, dress up in Jersey guido gear. We also thought we might see Dee in a snookie style poof, but instead she went to the shore in braids ala “Ten”.   Not sure I really got that part, but the rest was pretty funny.

    The best part of the show was Dennis and Dee’s foray into drugs and crime when they stupidly accept the offer of a drugged out woman at the hospital to hang out. They end up unkowingly smoking angel dust and participating in a bank robbery.

    Dennis is forced to drive the getaway car at gunpoint, all while they are both high as a kite of PCP.  Pretty funny stuff.

    Meanwhile, Charlie gets to have the dream night of his life when he runs into the waitress on the beach. They have a great time together, almost unbelievable really. They find seashells along the shore, find an adorable puppy, and end up seeing a spectacular display of fireworks. They fall asleep next to eachother and wake up the next morning.

    The waitress is in her usually sour mood, and tells Charlie that she took ecstasy last night (hence her agreeable demeanor).  Hilarious stuff – we knew that it had to be too good to be true. By the way, that’s Charlie Day’s real life wife (he’s the guy who plays Charlie).

    All in all, it looks like it’s gonna be a pretty solid season of awful people doing awful things to eachother and making us laugh. Onward!
