Carmelo & Lala get another reality show

So after the couple a very successful season on Lala’s Full Court weeding, documenting what they went through during the planning of their wedding, Mr. and Mrs. Carmelo Anthony was approached yet again by VH1 to now document their lives as a couple, as parents and in their careers.  to be entitled La La’ Full Court Life. And this news couldn’t have come at a better seeing as how the New York Knicks has a new edition to their family. For those wo have been living under a rock for what ever reason, Carmelo Anthony recently inked a 3 year $65 million dollar deal with the Knicks, which any basketball fan, myself included is super dumb excited about. I mean really Stoudemire could use some help at the garden. But that’s neither here nor there.

But any way moving on, apparently the show also documents there move to New York, but they have been filming the show way before Carmelo signed with the Knicks. So I’m pretty sure that once the show airs we will get to see some behind the scenes of what took place while this decision was being made. #POW

Now ya’ll know I’m a huge fan of La La all the way back to her day on BET. So you know I’m going to be glued to the television once this show actually airs. But aside from all the hype about her husband the show will pretty much document how La la maintains her career while in the midst of being a mother and a rather new wife. And a naturally when you roll in the celebrity world, you would have celeb friends and when you have your own reality show, those celeb friends would of course have to make their cameo appearances. So folks like Ciara, Kelly Rowland, Serena Williams, and more are said to have their time on screen, as they are a big part of La la and Carmelo’s life.

Jeff Olde from VH1′s Original Programming and Production states

“Viewers connect with La La because despite the fairy tale wedding and NBA star husband, she is a real, down to Earth, hardworking woman who stays true to herself. The best thing about the new series is that while pursuing and realizing her dreams, La La gets to take us back to her home in New York, where her story began.”

And this is so true, that’s why I watched the original reality show because she was honest about what she was going through. She went through the indecisiveness, of not knowing which dress she wanted to wear. She dealt with budget issues, she dealt the number of people coming to the wedding, she dealt with fear. Basically the same thing any bride goes through. Even with a high profile relationship with on of the best NBA players in the league, I think La la kept her cool and kept in 100 with the fans.

See now I don’t mind actually watching her show. So I suggest you all should watch it too.

Rihanna put it down at All Star Weekend

ok yea i was GEEKED for this performance i can’t even lie about it. My girl Rihanna did her thing at the 2011 NBA All Star Weekend. And to be honest I was pleasantly surprised. it was better than I thought it would be. I think she definitely was feeling herself and is showed on stage…in a good way. For those who don’t know Rihanna performed for the half time show with the help of Drake and Kanye West.

She did a mix for her songs; Umbrella, Only Girl, Rube Boy, Whats my Name and then ended with the hit All the Lights. but what I love about the performance was that she had a live band. and for me when a performer chooses to have a live band on stage it makes them that much more vulnerable as a singer, because now they actually have to make the attempt to sing. and I think Rihanna stepped outside of her comfort zone. and it worked for her…I cant even lie about it.

For once she looked like she was enjoying herself on stage. Her performance at the Grammys was good too, but I think because it seemed as if she was able to be a little bit more free on stage, there was positive energy that she had. home girl was dancing, and really using the stage. So i was excited to watch this performance. I think it was different Rihanna that haven’t really gotten the chance to see. I mean hey I would be on top of the world too if my perfume launch was a huge success.

i also noticed…i think Rihanna has been working on her vocals lately. The parts that I was able to hear…cause you know there were parts that you couldn’t hear her. but she is sounding better. to be honest, i never thought of Rihanna as a true vocalist, but she has amazing stage presence. and that has gotten her pretty far. and i have been waiting for her truly put some time into her vocals. and for this particular performance there is some progress.

I loved everything about this performance. i loved the dancers she got back to her Caribbean roots…which i absolutely love! she had a couple dance sequences which is something new for her! I loved her hair, that shade of red is good for her. i loved her outfit, I don’t care what anyone says home girl is THICK i mean seriously did you see them thighs YES HONEY!!! thats truly from the Caribbean for real.

oh and can i tell you guys how much i love the on stage chemistry between her and Drake #POW I’m serious folks, I love the two of them together on stage. They put it down at the Grammys and recreated it again for this performance.  And her and Kanye definitely held it down and finished strong. I just love that song any way so yea!

sidenote: Rihanna is going on tour this summer in which she will be accompanied by Cee Lo. i don’t know about you guys but I’m definitely going to this tour!

so yea..I am and always will be a fan of Rihanna…deal with it

Christina Aguilera’s Superbowl #fail

 

So I wasn’t going to do a post about this but I just could not help it. My ears are upset and my heart is heavy. Now if for some strange reason, you were unaware of the fact that the superbowl took place last night, you should pay close attention to this post. #shoutout to the Packers for winning. And let’s be honest here people, most of the country watches the superbowl to see the national anthem, the half time show and of course the ever interesting and OVERLY expensive commercials. And some folks might tune into the game to maybe win their office pools.

The national anthem…where do I even begin? I watched Christina Aguilera just completely and utterly butcher one of the most important songs in U.S. History. I mean come on, someone clearly didn’t make it to all of her rehearsals. And what hurts the most is that I’m a Christina Aguilera fan. I like her music. I’ve been on #teamchristinaaguilera since her Genie In a Bottle days. I stuck with her through her Dirty album days, Back to Basic album days, and right on through motherhood.

When I heard she was going to sing the national anthem. I was ready! I sat down, stopped everything I was doing. Because in my mind I just knew she was about murder this song (murder in a good way). I just knew she was going to take me back to superbowl XXV when Whitney Houston put her mark on the song. I just knew she was going to show the world why she is a 5 time Grammy winner. And then she opens her and falls flat on her face.

Ok I can’t lie she started off pretty good. The first couple lines weren’t bad but then as she started to go further into the song, and her number of irregularities just continued to sky rocket. I don’t know much about music and singing, but anyone can tell that she was all over the place when comes to the notes. And then she did the unthinkable. SHE MESSED UP THE WORDS!!! Ya’ll when I tell you I was on the floor, I was hiding in embarrassment for her, and I wasn’t the one singing. Like for real I need her to know the words. Point, blank, period! There is no excuse. If you know you will be singing live in front of hundreds of thousands screaming fans, and an even larger television audience, the least you can do is know the words.

And the ending…oh man! For real she was all over the place. And the one thing hate that some singers do, is over sing a song. They throw in ‘ohs and ahs’ in places they don’t need to be. And Ms. Aguilera committed that crime. And you can tell, when ever she messed she threw in an ‘oh’ or an ‘ah’ to cover it up. And I was like (honey no…just stop it. Sing the song the right way) Watching her sing I felt so offended cause she jacked that song up. Lol and the thing is she is a much better singer than what she displayed on Sunday.

#Upset with the performance. And to make myself feel better, and for the sake of all of you I’ll add Whitney’s version of the song!

Chris Paul & celeb friends bowl 4 a cause

NBA star Chris Paul (New Orleans Hornets point guard) held a well attended event with PBA yesterday (Dec. 14th) for the Chris Paul Celebrity Bowling Invitational at the Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base the listed include

Lil Wayne

Nelly

New Orleans Saint Reggie Bush

Ludacris

Lamar Woodley and Hines Ward from the Pittsburgh Steelers

Jack Del Rio Jacksonville, Fla., Jaguars head coach,

A list of professional bowlers

Chris developed and interest in the relationship he has with the service from his time with the 2006 Olympic US team where he had the awesome opportunity to meet and engage himself with members of our armed forces at the military bases.  Chris considers himself a relatively good bowler and actually participates in numerous different celebrity and youth bowling events. Many of these bowling and charity events benefit his CP3 Foundation.

CP3 Foundation was founded in 2005 by Chris and his family to support worthy causes. The foundation provides food for needy families as well as provides college scholarships to under privileged kids in Winston-Salem, N.C., (Chris’ hometown) and New Orleans, La.

I love this because back in the day I used to bowl and it is still a guilty pleasure of mine! Good Job Chris Paul!!!
