Mean Muggin' Mondays: Eff Calling Supernanny, Go Get Me The Belt!!!



"If we were all normal, life would be so lame.."
Happy Wednesday!!!
Tomorrow is Thanksgiving!! I definitely have been starving myself today to make sure that I have enough space to fit the TONS of food that I will be munching on tomorrow. (Listen, if you have a mother like mine, who knows how to throw down in the kitchen, you would definitely do the same thing.)
Here is the latest in Crazy News....If you've been watching MTV lately, you probably have seen the commercial for their upcoming series "Jersey Shore." The new reality-show will document the hard-partying lifestyle of the shore towns along the New Jersey Coast. The series features an Italian- American group who are pretty much drinking, partying, hooking-up and tanning on the show (in any particular order). While the network is excited for its premiere, some groups are not so happy with its show's upcoming release and even go as far as to call the show "racist against Italian Americans." According to AOL's Pop Eater, UNICO, the largest Italian American Service Organization in the US, are not pleased with the release of the show. Unico president Andre DiMino told the Associated Press that "'Jersey Shore' is nothing shy of 'trash television.' "
Is it? Here is the commercial of the show, Do you think it is truly offensive?
I talk too much as it is, and I am a great storyteller. I thought telling stories would be great in a book about my journey. With a push from agent Nancy Josephson and a shove from agent Suzy Unger, we all made it happen!
You reveal a lot that your fans don't know about you. Was writing about your life therapeutic?
Maybe I revealed too much! In a way it was therapeutic. I got my mind to think about other things, other than designer ball gowns and the latest pair of this season's heels. It opened up a thought process of memories, which made me relax and smile.
I love little touches like the designer pronunciation guide and the guide to Karl Lagerfeld. What made you include these instead of doing a straight bio?
Because the average person outside of fashion who buys this book may not know who some of the latest designers are, let alone how to pronounce their names!
I was shocked to read that you once considered becoming an accountant. What made you think it was a good idea at the time?
My sister, who I idolized, Barbara Ann, who died of breast cancer, worked at an accounting firm. That is where I had my first job in Manhattan as a messenger. I was fascinated by calculators and key-punch machines. Calculators because of totaling up my future earnings and key-punch machines because the cards that came out of the machine reminded me of perforated leather jackets. Plus, I knew one day I would need to know how to manage my money and to make sure I get every penny owed and promised to me!
Hello, My Crazy Ones....
Now, I know what you are saying, " Girl, you do realize that it's Wednesday, right?" I know that!!! What happen was my computer decided to have a psycho moment and not allow me to post Throwback Tuesdays....so MY BAD!!!
Anyway, if you are a college student like me, you probably suffer from many night where you cannot go to bed. I have been suffering from sleeples nights A LOT due to all the work I need to do (maybe it is also has something to do with all of the thoughts that are going on in this big head of mine. Yes, I do have a big head. I DARE YOU TO CRACK A JOKE!)
So, one night when I couldn't sleep, I decided to go onto You Tube to watch some videos and I stumbled upon MY JAM!! Now, I am happy to see R&B making a true comeback with the help of artists like Musiq Soulchild, Trey Songz, and Ne-Yo but nothing can compare to the soul and the music of what R&B use to be in the 1970s, 80s and 90s. Even me, "I hate mushiness" attitude acts like a gitty little girl when a good R&B song use to come on BET(when they actually played videos.) However, I must give the network credit for creating the Centric Channel. I actually like that channel and THEY ACTUALLY PLAY MUSIC VIDEOS! YAY!
So enjoy this trip down memory lane (feel free to turn your volumes up high....)
Shout out to A2Z4Lyfe for sharing this with me...
Now, when I saw that Diggy Simmons was rapping, I must admit I was ready to GO IN on this little boy and curse him out, but he ACTUALLY Suprise the hell out of me. He is really good! No offense, Jo Jo, but your brother is looking like he might be the next great rapper in the game, ooooo snap, you better work on that...
Listen to Diggy's Freestyle, I promise you will be pleasantly surprised :-)
