I want to say a little bit about following your intuition.

Whenever you get the gut feeling, whether it be a college you are going to, another school, or maybe a guy youre dating or a girl, any kind of new situation in your life it is generally good to go with your gut.  That little tiny voice that tells you what to do is usually right thing to do.  All I can say is follow your dreams, follow your intuition, and you will probably never go wrong.

Probably not. But, puberty is hitting him full force!! He can’t reach those high notes from his latest songs anymore. He claims his voice has been cracking, and even after working with his vocal coach, he will have to sing all of his songs in a lower key.
But its not just his angelic voice canceling appearances! Recently the Australian police canceled his concert after 10 girls fainted! Ten! That’s some serious fainting!

Justin felt terrible, and tweeted “I love my fans and I am just as disappointed as everyone else with the news from this morning. I want to sing for my fans. I want to make this clear… I don’t cancel… I woke up this morning to the police cancelling the show for safety reasons. I’m very happy about the welcome and the love from around the world, but I want everyone to still remember my fans’ safety comes first.”

So if you can keep from fainting, would you enjoy hearing his new manly voice in concert?

An American designer has come up with an invention that covers up your ‘butt cleavage’ when wearing low-rise jeans.

The Backtacular Gluteal Cleft Shield is an adhesive fabric patch that’s applied directly to the skin on the lower back.  The creator came up with the idea while sporting her favorite jeans, which exposed too much of her ‘gluteal cleft’ whenever she sat or bent over.

The patch is made of hypo-allergenic denim and decorated with studs and rhinestones and comes in several colors and designs including butterflies, flowers, hearts, and peace signs.

The BGCS can be bought online at www.kimberlilyonline.com

It’s 1984, a new studio has the guts to make a movie called A Nightmare on Elm Street from writer/director Wes Craven for under $2 million.  The movie is bloody, scary and insanely popular.  It goes on to earn over $25 million, which in 1984 was a good bit of money, produce a series of sequels, a TV show and start a major movie studio.  The movie followed in line as other cheap horror films like Halloween and Friday the 13th, but this one  was different.  The monster in this was not a lumbering, silent killer with no personality.  We were introduced to Freddy Krueger who talked, cracked jokes, was sadistic and sexual and, in my opinion, was the reason why the 1984 Nightmare on Elm Street was a cut (no pun intended) above the rest.  Fast forward to 2010, and Michael Bay’s production company continues their rampage and raping of all the beloved horror movies from the past that they fatten up and throw out to slaughter for quick cash.  Some of these remakes have been good (The Hills Have Eyes, Texas Chainsaw Massacre) and the rest have been absolutely awful.  The remake of Nightmare on Elm Street falls in the latter catagory.  I have to admit that I was pretty excited for this.  Even though the original has a special place in my heart, when I heard that Oscar-nominated and incredible actor Jackie Earl Haley (Watchmen, Shutter Island) would be playing Freddy, I couldn’t have pictured anyone better for the part…and yes that includes the original Freddy, Robert Englund.  I thought that Haley would bring the viciousness the character deserved and leave the one-liners at the door.  Boy, I was I wrong.  I feel like he tried but it wasn’t good enough.  The script for this film couldn’t have been worse and when you have a cast of no-name actors who were hired solely on their looks read such horrible dribble, you’re really just pouring salt on a wound.  I can only imagine that such a horrific oversight could be made by a director who’s only experience behind a camera comes from music videos, which is exactly what they had in director Samuel Bayer.  Everything about this movie was pathetic and lame.  The lazy acting, the bloated production budget, the miserable script and even the makeup effects were terrible.  I know they wanted to give Freddy a more “burn victim” look, but he literally looks like he’s wearing a rubber mask.  Some of the scenes that amazed and shocked audiences in the original, such as the infamous body-flying-around-the-room scene, is disappointing and downright awful.  I want to make it very clear that I’m not saying this because I’m a snob about remakes.  I’m not against them and have seen some that I enjoyed more than the orginal, such as Rob Zombie’s Halloween.  I think that if you have something different to bring to the table and can show me the same story but still make my eyes pop, you’ve really impressed me then.  Furthermore, I even went back and watched my copy of the original Nightmare when I got home to make sure I wasn’t falsely remembering how good it was.  Sure, it’s campy, but that’s why it was so great.  It was really scary and this remake isn’t.  It’s full-on proof that throwing money at it and passing it off to a group of people who don’t know or worse, care, what they’re doing results in a giant pile of suck.  The only thing that they finally got right about this remake is the title…it truly is a nightmare.
