Love the Look
I’m just loving this look! The tiara just puts it over the top.
Anyone want to guess what movie this scene is from?
Passion
No Utada for You
JPop star Utada was scheduled to visit Hawaii and promote her new album This Is the One. Unfortunately, she’s sick with peritonsillitis and had to cancel.
Don’t let her appearance and JPop background fool you though. Her music is not what you think. On iTunes, This Is the One currently has 1247 reviews and is averaging 4.5 stars! Every song is solid, ranging from ballads to dance tracks.
Even though Utada’s not coming to town, you can get her MP3-format album for only $5 on Amazon for a limited time. You won’t be disappointed. Listen to samples below.
Bye Ty and Perfection for Gilles
The surprising Semi-Finals of Dancing with the Stars included Gilles Marini, Shawn Johnson, Melissa Rycroft, and Ty Murray after the shocking elimination of Lil’ Kim. The DWTS Finals won’t be including Ty Murray who lasted through ten weeks of competition.
Even with decent scores from the judges, the rodeo king couldn’t overcome the strong performances of the other contestants like Gilles and Cheryl who posted six perfect scores. Is it only a coincidence that “Gilles” has 6 letters and “Cheryl” has 6 letters, and they got 6 perfect scores?
Here is what double perfection looks like.
Going back to Ty for a bit. His high scores during the Semi-Finals really surprised me. Yeah, he did good, but compared to the rest of the dancers, he doesn’t seem to be at the same level at this point in the competition. So why the high scores? Aha! It’s a variation of the old reverse psychology technique used by Len Goodman. In previous weeks when Len gave low scores, the fans rallied to keep Ty. Give Ty decent scores, and the fans aren’t incited to call in their votes, and bye goes Ty. Mr. Goodman is truly a master of gnosis.
Fonzie Says Sit on it Twitter!
More Twitter humor bashing the wildly popular microblogging service and all of its sanctimonious(?) celebrities.
I really don’t understand this video. Ashton Kutcher is my inspiration! 😉
Form Tribes to Change the World
Came across this video presentation of Seth Godin, author of The Dip.
Very interesting presentation on a proven methodology of changing the world by forming tribes.
If Wolverine Wore Nikes…
If Wolverine wore Nike kicks, he’d be rocking these Air Max 95.
The high tops are for Wolvie’s nemesis, Sabertooth.
Hawaii’s Dancing with the Celebrities
Hawaii’s version of Dancing with the Stars, Dancing with the Celebrities, allowed several local celebrities to strut their stuff for charity. Honolulu Magazine has an inside look of the event.

Ty Murray Still Riding!?
What’s that? Ty Murray wasn’t eliminated as expected on Dancing with the Stars? The judges said it was time to go. Even Ty and partner Chelsie seemed to know it was time to go, but the fans… Obviously, the fans thought otherwise, voting to save Ty and Chelsie at the shocking expense of eliminating Lil’ Kim and Derek Hough.
Yes, the Bionic Bootie was booted on Week 9 of DWTS leaving Ty, Melissa Rycroft, Shawn Johson, and Gilles Marini to duke it out on the dance floor. These upsets have happened before, but usually not so close to the finals.
Oh yeah, here’s the sensual rumba Ty performed that must have been his saving grace.
Can the rodeo star bring down another DWTS bull next week?
Melissa’s Perfect Tango
So by now, you probably heard Melissa Rycroft exclaim her boob came out after her perfect performance. Of course, there was nothing to be seen on national television, but if you want to see for yourself, here’s the video. Fast forward to about the 1:40 mark when things start to unravel.
After several recent wardrobe malfunctions, I’m thinking the DWTS wardrobe crew are a bunch of practical jokers!
Overheard on Dancing with the Stars
“My boob came out,” exclaims Melissa Rycroft after finishing her perfect samba. Dancing with the Stars host and witness Tom Bergeron hackles like a school boy in reply.
