So somehow, someway, Mrs. Smith was able to grapple her hooks into me and make me watch the last five or six episodes of this season of The Bachelor. Honestly speaking, I’ve always thought of the idea to be extremely stupid. Forcing love on one person by choosing 25 strangers they’ve never met and allowing them to spend a few hours a day with them for a few months is a great way to staff divorce lawyers in my opinion. Be that as it may, I recognize the flash and dash and why the show continues to be successful, Because watching beautiful people live the beautiful life and find true love is what each and every American dreams of. But after watching last night’s finale, I found myself turning away from the television in disgust. Enough is enough.
If you’re a frequent reader of our blog, then you know I have a sweet tooth for the horror movie genre. Not so much for the blood and guts aspect of the crap a lot of directors are putting out today but more for the original ideas and psychological aspect. I can withstand anything a movie throws at me because I know, no matter what, it’s for show. The gore, the body parts, ehh, been there done that. The Bachelor on the other hand is real life for some. You follow the characters, you learn their stories and then you pick someone who you want to “win”.
In last nights finale, there were two women left vying for Jake’s proposal and an unarguable fact was that Tenley is the sweeter of the two. Sadly, you also know that she was married once and had a douche of a husband, so if she’s not selected by Jake, the train most certainly will come off of the tracks. Anyone following The Bachelor, probably knew that Vienna was the choice before it happened and the episode clearly showed that Jake was undoubtedly going that way, but when it came time to get down on one knee, I have to admit, I actually was pulling for Tenley.
Then it happened. All of the reasons I never wanted to watch this inane show in the first place we’re broadcast across the country when Jake delivered the crushing blow to the one woman out of 25 that simply could not take it. What made it worse, was the chatter from Tenley walking up to the podium, knowing that she was the one Jake was going to pick. The horror! I found myself not even being able to watch as a woman who had her heart broken once, simply had it ripped out of her chest this time around. The tears that ran down her face almost brought me, a manly man, to tears. Just awful.
Now I’m not as naive as you may think. I know that by going on a show like this, you leave the possibility open that you fall in love and don’t make it all the way to top dog. I have to imagine, that Tenley’s family begged her not to go on this show because of this very reason. With that said, no one deserves this. Certainly not a girl as nice as Tenley. THEN, if that wasn’t enough, she got to relive the moment over and over again during the recap after-show.
Will Jake and Vienna’s love last? Long shot. Would Jake and Tenley’s love had lasted? Even longer shot. But that’s not the point. The Bachelor is a show with no chance of a happy ending and a 100% chance of a lot of broken hearts. Sure it makes for excellent television but I’ll take the happy endings every day of the week and twice on Sundays. No more Bachelor for me!
There have been many rumors floating around,that Simon Cowell has in fact proposed to his girlfriend Mezhgan Hussainy. These rumors had been somewhat put to rest by Simon Cowell’s publicist Max Clifford two weeks ago, when he said that he spoke to Simon in London and asked him: “Look, are you engaged? Is it true?” and Simon said “No! No. I’m not engaged.” Well it might have been true then, but now I’m not so sure.
In the picture to the right, you can see American Idol producer and judge, Simon Cowell (50), with his recent main squeeze, Afghan-born American Idol make up artist Mezhgan Hussainy (36), at Sony Music offices in Beverly Hills, CA. on February 28th. What’s in the top right corner you ask? Well that would be the huge diamond ring that Hussainy was sporting on that special ring finger.
That huge rock might be a statement all on it’s own… but we would still like an official announcement! Thanks in advance Mr. Cowell.
I can only imagine that after last night’s Bachelor episode, there were women passing out left and right. Don’t worry you are not alone. Last night on The Bachelor, Ali, who left Jake for fear of being fired from her job if she stayed, pleaded Jake to come back but unfortunately was brutally DENIED! I was soooo pissed. So what’s the next step for Ali? Aahh go on the Ellen DeGeneres show and tell the world what really happened of course.
So check this out, at the end of the episode I turned to Mr. Smith and said “I bet you a million dollars that Ali will be the next Bachelorette” and today it’s all over the internet. Not only did Jake make a huge mistake by not letting Ali come back but now rumors are surfacing that Gia had another man at home (But who cares, she went home last night) and that Vienna is still in love with her ex-boyfriend in Florida, not to mention all the wild pictures of her, like licking whip cream of another girls chest.
Good luck Jake… Thanks for employing the gossip mags of America (If you pick Vienna). Which he might.
So I have been hearing rumors that this seasons Bachelor finale will shock and disappoint everyone. And what will disappoint everyone more than anything? Vienna. I don’t normally watch the Bachelor, or the Bachelorette for that matter. I happened to see the last few episodes of Jillian’s quest for love, and started watching Jake when he had about 10 girls left, now he’s down to 3… or is it 4?
On the last episode of The Bachelor, Jake had to get rid of one more girl, but unfortunately did not get a chance because Ali (My favorite) was given an ultimatum by her job and was forced to leave the show for fear she would get fired. Jake kept saying that it broke his heart when Ali left, but previews of the next episode suggest that Ali might be coming back. Hey… it worked for Ed didn’t it!?!
Now let’s get back to the rumors… ABC had made no effort to conceal the identity of Jake’s bride of choice and rumors have been saying that Vienna will in fact be the winner. Vienna has been proclaimed the most hated girl in the house, especially by my girl Ali. Jake however did not want to listen to gossip or other girls opinions and has kept her in the race, claiming that he’s feelings for her are real.
Personally, I think she is an idiot, she is too young, she is spoiled and she definitely does not deserve him. I really think that he is a nice descent guy, and Vienna is just so not right for him. Ali is so pretty and I think that they are definitely perfect for each other. So ABC thinks that we will be disappointed; that is not even close to what we will be. More like outraged. If he picks Vienna, I am boycotting The Bachelor. The End.
Well at least to the media. The couple actually welcomed the little girl about a month ago, but pictures are just now surfacing. Actor Matthew McConaughey and Model / Designer, Camila Alves, are finally debuting their new bundle of joy, Vida Alves McConaughey, who was born on January 3rd, 2010.
This is not the first child for this good looking couple. On July 7th, 2008, Brazilian native, Camila Alves, gave birth to their first son, Levi Alves McConaughey.
This happy family is definitely complete. But wait… what about an engagement? Three years … two kids… No Ring? If I was her I’d be getting a little anxious. It’s not like they don’t have the money.
They definitely look freaking’ adorable and totally overjoyed!
Our quirky pop princesses is settling down. The I Kissed a Girl and I Liked It singer, first met her British comedian prince charming, Russell Brand, at the MTV Video Music Awards in New York City on September 13, 2009. The romance started when Brand kindly mentioned (On stage) that he had a huge crush on the singer and that they were staying at the same hotel. I guess that worked because a few days later the twosome went on a little Thailand getaway to get to know each other. A few weeks later they made their couple debut in Paris for fashion week.
After almost 4 months of dating, Katy Perry and Russell Brand took their New Years celebration international and went to India. When the rest of the world was getting wasted and dancing on tables, Katy and Russell were cozying up to each other in a little tent at the foot of a mountain in Jaipur, India when Russell popped the question. Katy Perry of course said yes and the rest… well I guess we’ll see what happens.
No, not to each other… and no they are not real brothers. if you are a supernatural buff like me, you must watch CW’s hit series – Supernatural. Jensen Ackles and Jared Padalecki play demon-hunting brothers by the name of Dean and Sam Winchester. Looks like the boys are not only close on the screen but also off the screen. They even get engaged at the same time (Almost). Jensen Ackles got engaged to girlfriend Danneel Harris back in the fall of 2009, and lil bro finally decided to go in his footsteps and propose to girlfriend and former Supernatural cast member, Genevieve Cortes. Maybe they’ll have a double wedding…
I hope everyone had a great time on New Years Eve, I know I did, and so did are famous buddies. Most pictures are courtesy of People.com but I just had to have them. Hope you enjoy. Just click the little [ i] in the top right hand corner of the slide show to see where and how the stars brought in the new year.
The day is finally here. Reality TV star, Kourtney Kardashian, has finally brought her healthy baby boy into the world. This is the first child for Kourtney and her boyfriend of two years Scott Disick and the first boy into the Kardashian family in years. So let me give you a rundown on how this bundle of joy was created. It’s the oldest story in the book: Girl meets boy – boy cheats on girl – girl finds out and goes down to Miami to film her own reality show with her sister and hooks up with multiple guys – boy comes to Miami to win girl back – girl sleeps with boy – and wallaaa…. a baby.
The new bundle of joy’s name is Mason Dash Disick, which is actually a pretty cute name for a Hollywood baby. The middle name Dash, comes from the girls joint fashion store and the baby get the fathers last name (Not the Kardashians). For those of you that just crawled up from under a rock, Kourtney Kardashian is the star of reality shows such as Keeping Up with the Kardashians and Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami.
