Three Women l-r Billie Lourd, Debbie Reynolds & Carrie Fisher
With all of the mourning of Debbie Reynolds and daughter Carrie Fisher's death this week, I though a little levity was needed regarding the two. Thus when I came across Carrie's daughter & Debbie's granddaughter Billie Lourd promoting Scream Queens on Late Night with Seth Meyers telling how her grandmother tried to scare her off from acting I just had to post it! Billie proves a sense of humor runs in the family. Let's let the clip do it's own talking shall we? Jump to it below! T.G.I.F!
"I am the great Cornholio! I need T.P. for my bunghole!" - Beavis "Beavis and Butthead" Yes, Corn Hole is the first thing I thought when I saw this image of singer Michael Buble' at Disneyland. The second thing I though is: "He must not have tonsils anymore" or "Perhaps he is auditioning for gay porn" see how you can add any take you want onto this shot??? Apparently this has got certain segments of the web upset and freaked out. Because they obviously have nothing better to do. Me? I am posting it because I think it is hilarious and who does not love a man with a great sense of humor? I know I do. Obviously Buble' saw the paparazzi and wanted to have some fun with them. He also most likely figured the image would go viral and that there were enough gullible people in the world to actually not be in on the joke. Smart & funny, that's a pretty amazing combination! Trust me... Tweet about the corn to Michael at: https://twitter.com/search/michael+buble
Kelly Mantle Releases “Keyboard Courage”, The Debut Single From Her Upcoming “Duality” Album
Cyber-Bullying is a terrible thing, I myself as a public person have been on the receiving end of it. Like Kelly Mantle, I too am able to brush it off. However when you are young and have yet to develop coping skills, it can lead to devastating results - Here is the 411 on Kelly's single Keyboard Courage.
First, Prince William and wife Kate Middleton announced plans to tackle cyber-bullying; now, a queen is joining the fight. RuPaul’s Drag Race’s Kelly Mantle’s new pop track, “Keyboard Courage”, is intended to be an anthem for anyone who has been harassed or stalked online. “I’ve been called every name in the book,” she reveals. “One person tweeted ‘Kelly Mantle is so ugly. She looks like a burn victim going through chemo.’ Luckily, Kelly’s strong sense of humor allows her to brush off many of the personal attacks, but she wrote the song after meeting young fans being victimized online by kids in their schools. “Not everyone can laugh it off. It’s a scary thought that someone’s heartless, mindless words could drive another person to take their life.” Kelly Mantle’s “Keyboard Courage” is available on iTunes now at https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/keyboard-courage-single/id1052893996.
Keyboard Courage “My hope is that Keyboard Courage can be that song kids listen to and be reminded to not get discouraged by online bullies,” continues Kelly Mantle from her Hollywood home. Produced by Steven Phillips, who also produced Mantle’s last album Satellite Baby, “Keyboard Courage” is a high energy, 80’s inspired pop track. It’s fun but with a powerful message. The lyrics include actual negative comments that Kelly Mantle has received.
It isn’t the first time Kelly Mantle has reflected on real life in her music. She followed her elimination from RuPaul’s Drag Race with a song called (what else?), “Eliminated”.
“One of my favorite things to do is to sit down with my guitar or at my piano and create a song about something that just happened to me,” she explains. “I get off on turning life experience into lyrics. Ya know, figuring out how the rhythm behind the words can convey what happened. I’m all about turning life into art.”
