With a mere three more days until Halloween I thought it was time for another edition of My Favorite Celebrity Costumes! Today's honor goes to one Ms. Lucy Hale. Star of one of my all time favorite TV shows Pretty Little Liars. She also starred in the horror movie Truth or Dare. Lucy is dressed as the Twitter Logo which scored with me as it is one of the more original ideas I have seen for a Halloween costume. Not to mention how cute she looks in the get up. Thus today's "Tweet" is only three more days until the most wonderful time of the year -Halloween. "Yes" that is going to be my "Tweet" fall in line ghouls!

CHO SET TO HOST “NEW NOW NEXT HONORS” ON LOGO FEBRUARY 1
MARGARET PARTNERS WITH AMAZON FOR NEW DRAMEDY SERIES “HIGHLAND”
CATCH MARGARET ON “REAL TIME WITH BILL MAHER” FEBRUARY 12
2016 is the year of keeping it real. So who better to do that with than Margaret Cho?
Three time Grammy and Emmy nominee, comedian Margaret Cho has been named special co-host of E!’s comedy favorite “Fashion Police.” “Fashion Police” will cover the biggest award shows of the 2016 season beginning Monday, January 11 with the 73rd Annual Golden Globe Awards special.
"I love joining the crew of Fashion Police. To me it feels like family. Although I am not quite a fashionista, I would love to look at it like I am changing it up - Fashion Police: Special Victims Unit. It makes me happiest to spend time with Melissa, and when I see her laugh at my jokes, I feel like Joan is smiling, somewhere." Margaret Cho
Margaret is also set to host the “New Now Next Honors” on the Logo Network February 1. From the slopes of Aspen Gay Ski Week, “New Now Next Honors” is a celebration of what’s hot and, more importantly, what’s going to be in the year to come.
Speaking of the year to come, Margaret has signed a development deal with Amazon for her marijuana-themed family dramedy titled “Highland.” The hour long project follows Cho, who after court-ordered rehab gets a chance to start over, but has to move in with her dysfunctional family who now run a pot dispensary. Co-produced by Tomorrow Studios and Amazon Studios, “Highland” was created by Margaret Cho and writer Liz Sarnoff (“Deadwood,” “Lost,” “Alcatraz.”). Cho is also attached to star and exec. produce, along with Becky Clements and Marty Adelstein of Tomorrow Studios.
In addition, you can catch Margareton“Real Time with Bill Maher”Friday, February 12.
Margaret will also continue to tour with her ever evolving stand-up comedy show throughout 2016. She will continue to tackle difficult subjects with sensitivity and razor sharp insight. A pioneer amongst women in comedy, Margaret doesn’t take anything for granted. “It’s a wonderful thing to be known as a ‘safe haven’ for people who feel disenfranchised. The audience at my shows don’t necessarily consider themselves traditional comedy fans. I seem to be a secure alternative for people who don’t think they’re being represented in society. They come because my point of view satisfies a lot of what needs to be said out there, and that makes me really proud.”

The tour will cover 19 States and 30 Cities in the U.S.! Yes, 2013 is the year for "M2V".
Jandre Nadal Lead Vocals/Guitar of "M2V" stopped by "Entertain Me" to give me this quote about the groups mega 2013 activity:
"We have invested so much as a band, mental and physical preparations, sacrificing everything in our personal lives. We have the mind set and the talent, we just need the exposure.We are going to be big and we know it"!
Yes, Jandre this writer agrees. I first heard of the band and chatted with Jandre in May 2012 for Chorus & Verse, oh, you can cut to that full length interview here...
Speaking with Mr. Nadal and hearing the bands music, I knew then everything he just told all of you above is 100% accurate and, he speaks the truth. Can I get an amen?

International recording artist Jason Walker is back with his latest hit "Beat Don't Stop" which shot to number five on the Billboard Dance Charts.
In addition to kicking it on the charts, Jason's "Raise Your Hands" won an Out Music Award for Best Inspirational Song.
OK, everyone what are you waiting for? Put on your dancing shoes, it's Jason Time!
MS: Mr. Walker I must compliment you, you have quite the falsetto going on.
JW: Oh, thanks. It's not a falsetto though.
MS: Really?
JW: I'm just Fucking with ya! (laughs)
MS: I really like the message of "Beat Don't Stop" by the way, you made a statement that there a shift of consciousness is happening in the world right now. I agree, you can actually feel it happening.
JW: Oh completely.
MS: People are realizing that they need to work together and do something to make a change.
JW: Oh yeah, things are not going to change on their own.
MS: Madonna is one of your musical idols I noticed. There are parts of the video for "Beat Don't Stop" that remind me of the video for "Ray of Light".
JW: Oh really? That's cool! I love that album, it was ahead of it's time when it came out.
MS: The press release on says "Beat Don't Stop" went to number five on the Billboard Dance Charts. Did it climb any higher post the release?
JW: No, it peaked at number five. I will be honest with you, I was happy when it went to the tenth spot on the charts and then it kept moving, and I thought it would be great if it went to number five and I got my wish.
MS: Explain your statement about being a "child of the rave".
JW: I'm a raver baby. I was in Pittsburgh in the late 1990's and the rave scene, at least there, was jumping off. It was a really magical time, one of the best times of my life! One of my best friends and I went to a lot of parties together and discovered a lot of music, you can't buy those kind of memories. The rave scene was a great time for music, especially dance music, there was so much incredible stuff out at that time. My love of club and house music really solidified itself during this period within me. Oh, that music, it was so much fun! It was never about the drugs, so many people made it about the drugs, it was never about that for me. It was about going and listening to who was playing what and how it made you feel, that's the definition of dance music, it's about how it makes you feel.
MS: You also mentioned that you thought of dance music as something to bring people together.
Jason Walker "Beat Don't Stop"
JW: Oh it completely does. I don't feel that it has lost any of that, I feel like dance music has lost a little bit of soul, that bothers me. But hopefully it's something that me and other artists who feel like I do can bring back a little bit.
MS: Dance music has to be really good and stand out to me, or I won't listen as most of it is generic.
JW: A lot of it really is anymore.
MS: You also had a number one video on Logo "I Can't Get You Off Of My Mind".
JW: I did!
MS: So, did you pop a bottle of champagne to celebrate?
JW: Well, actually I did! (laughs) I had some people over and we drank a lot of champagne. (laughs)
MS: Did you serve any finger foods?
JW: No, we just stuck to liquor. (laughs) We didn't get too wasted, but wasted enough!
I first encountered Grace V. (the V. stands for Valerie) via an interview request from Project Publicity for the music site I write for, Chorus and Verse.
Every person I interview is uncharted territory until you have been there. Grace V. turned out to be a delightful intelligent woman who, in my book loves to do the most important thing in life, laugh...!
Here is the link to my full length interview with her for her first hit single "When The Lights Go Down" where she looked like a cute spandex mummy in the video.
MS: Hello gorgeous what have you been up to of late?
GV: "I've been very busy lately promoting my new single "Don't Wanna Be Waiting". It is also produced by the one and only Randy Jackson! I just got back from NYC where I did a lot of press and radio appearances. I also had an amazing show in Connecticut at Sin City in Jan. I am gonna have few shows in LA in Feb-March".
MS: Initiate the unfamiliar with your music please.
GV: "I think my music is sensual, dancy, fun, very pure. I only sing what is dear to my heart; you want to drive your car and sing along with my songs very very LOUD. It is just awesome! I am very passionate about my craft. And I love to enjoy my life to the fullest"
MS: Chat about your music video.
GV: "My music video is exclusively released today on MTV logo. Tomorrow we are gonna upload it to my YouTube channel and I hope we can beat my "When The Lights Go Down" record!
MS: Do you have a motto? Most artist have a motto, tell us yours.
GV: "I recently found a great quote in The Bible: "For everything there is a season, a time for every activity under Heaven. A time to cry and a time to laugh. A time to grieve and a time to dance." That's my MOTTO"
Check out the lyric video for the song, "Don't Wanna Be Waiting"...
