"Empire" Tie One On With Cookie Tonight!

Cookie Wants Nookie!

OK, I admit while I had heard of the hottest new show to hit the airwaves, Empire, I never tuned in until Courtney Love guest starred on Episode six of the series. I am a big Hole fan (insert joke here.)

Damn it! From that point on I had yet another TV show I was addicted to. So, yes, of course I watched the first five episodes prior ON DEMAND and have watched every episode since.

Cookie Lyon, played by the awesome Taraji P Henson, is my spirit animal...I would not dream of missing tonight's two hour finale!

Empire, Empire, Empire - click your heels together three times and tie one on this Hump Day during the season one send off. 

I came across the rules for a clever drinking game any Empire fan will L-O-V-E, thanks US Weekly for this you guys are da bomb!

You should take a drink…

1. Whenever Cookie offers up her nookie.
2. Whenever there’s a famous guest star.
3. Whenever Hakeem throws a bitch fit.
4. Whenever Cookie looks fierce in fur.
5. Whenever an artist threatens to leave Lucious for Beretti.
6. Whenever someone mentions the name “Bunkie,” because it is a phenomenal name.
7. Whenever someone references “being a Lyon.”
8. Whenever Jamal wears a ridiculous scarf.
9. Whenever you find yourself secretly crushing on Jamal despite his ridiculous scarf.
10. Whenever Porsha is the perfect sidekick.

“Fighting Gravity” will make its full-length premiere on Tuesday, March 24 exclusively on Yahoo Music.   This poignant piece was inspired by a real life experience and conceptualized by Caleb, along with Mark Staubach (American Authors, Travie McCoy, Dirty Heads) who also directed the video. Caleb explains:  “The video was inspired by a personal experience I had this past year while visiting a family whose son had a rare but terminal form of pediatric cancer.  Using “Fighting Gravity” as the musical backdrop, I wanted to create an emotional connection and raise awareness of a disease that tragically affects so many families.  I hope people will be inspired to lend support to people they know that are going through similar experiences.”

F#ck Off! Dolce & Gabbana.

Sharon Stone Rulz!

If you own any Dolce & Gabbana, you are forgiven until now. These two tools have bit the hand that feeds them. The founders have made terrible comments about the following: same-sex parenting and what one of them dubbed "synthetic" children conceived via artificial insemination.

Well one of my favorite actresses and people I have met Sharon Stone was among those to defend what's right. Here is her awesome statement below.

"We must meet this type of cruelty towards children who are in need and want homes and families with love and open homes," she said in a statement to E! News. "We must meet these type of behaviors with thoughts turned inward towards ourselves. ‘How can I give more to a child in need, how can I do more for the children of this world who need more and deserve more?'"

"To spend time raging against a closed mind is to waste oneself, a self that can be better spent loving where that love is has been removed from," she added. "To dismiss modern medicine as it helps loving people become loving parents is to dismiss all of the miracles of modern medicine."

Ms. Stone has three adopted sons.

Thus if you buy or still support Dolce & Gabbana, you are a jerk.

The Good Wife: Bye, Bye, Bye Kalinda Sharma

I Will Miss Kalinda

Tonight is an all new The Good Wife, in my humbled opinion one of the best shows on TV.
As most fans know Kalinda Sharma, played by the great Archie Panjabi, days are numbered.

Well Ms. Panjabi got her Tweet on with this message on Friday the 13th:
"I took down the name sign from my dressing room today! Not long to go!" 

Panjabi's contract ends in May. She's already lined up a new gig to star in a yet-to-be-determined pilot for 20th Century Fox TV. Although I will miss Kalinda, I will watch Archie in anything.

Unlike Josh Charles who played Will Gardner, this exit will not be shocking and not handled the same way I am sure. However I do suspect it will have something to do with Lemond Bishop.

Also sorry to fellow The Good Wife Fans, Will's departure was a relief for me.

May The Good Wife be with you, at: https://www.facebook.com/TheGoodWife

Are You A "Crate Digger?"

Crate Digger: An Obsession With Punk Records

by Bob Suren

Available on June 9th - Trade Paperback, 192 Pages - $14.95

An insider's account of the last 30 years of punk rock and vinyl records, 

including new information on many punk luminaries. 

Oh how fondly I remember "crate digging" - it was so much fun, I would go to the Tower Records once a week and find out what new vinyl I could buy, punk included. Yes, I was and still am a Punk Rocker!!!

Bob Suren spent more than 30 years immersed in punk rock. His obsession with punk music, culture, and especially record collecting began with a loaned mix tape in a small town in Florida when he was a teenager and slowly took over all aspects of his life.

He started a record label and distribution company, opened a record store, managed a thriving bootleg merchandise empire, published a magazine, promoted shows, and traveled the world with his own band. He mentored generations of younger punks and built a movement that put Florida on the map. He stayed a step ahead of all the ups and downs of the music industry, always pioneering.

Join Bob as he hangs out with punk luminaries like Jello Biafra, The Meatmen, Raw Power, Black Flag, The Dead Boys, Millions of Dead Cops, Rattus, and more. He relates his (mis)adventures breaking his curfew to see the Dead Boys' last show, almost getting arrested after seeing the Ramones, touring with his bands in Egypt, Ecuador, Brazil, and more.

As Jeff Nelson of Minor Threat said, "Really brings to life the early days of the American punk scene as it spread slowly across the country, through turntables, fanzines, and word of mouth. His vivid vinyl recollections illustrate how good record stores and adventurous college radio stations were so essential in bringing startling new music into the lives of many previously isolated kids. It follows the trajectory of a kid-turned-concert-promoter as his passion for music became all-consuming." 

Then one day it all fell apart. He'd built up his life like a record collection, but it didn't satisfy him anymore. He sold everything, dropped out, moved far from home to start fresh... and wrote this book.

Crate Digger is written in short spurts tied to actual records. The result is real, heartfelt, and deeply informed by the music of the last thirty years. It's a basic piece of your punk history collection. 

"Bob Suren delivers some great punk rawk history through anecdote and wit, intermingled with personal stories of love, loss, the characters that have come and gone and that elusive hunk of vinyl that's just around the next corner.... All spanning 30 years of Bob's life." 

- Ami Lawless, Voetsek 

"More than just your typical "record guide," Crate Digger allows us to accompany Bob on his passionate 30+ year punk rock journey. The anecdotal approach reminds us that, for the passionate music fan, there's a personal connection to a particular record that often conjures up various memories, both good and bad." 

- Al Quint, Suburban Voice magazine and Sonic Overload Radio.

Mama Maria Approves of Miley & Patrick

Too Much Cuteness!

It's Friday the 13th, T.G.I.F. and all that jazz. Love is in the air it seems that Miley Cyrus and Patrick Schwarzenegger are getting very serious. 

Patrick's sister Katherine stated to Extra: "I think they're adorable," so do I Katherine "If my brother's happy, I'm happy and that's all that matters to me. You just want your sibling to be happy, if they're with someone who makes them happy and in a happy healthy relationship then I'm happy."

Most importantly Mama Maria Shriver, a woman who I respect for many reasons really thinks Ms. Cyrus is a terrific girl and approves of the deepening bond between Miley and her son. 

Now THAT is a seal of approval! You go you two!

OMG! They're Naked! Chelsea Handler & Nick Offerman

Extra, extra! "Women & Men: An Issue About Our Current Difficulties" that's what the current issue of Esquire proclaims to be all about. Yes, the mag stakes claim that the entire issue is "devoted entirely to how men and women interact." Men & Women interacting, oh my the drama. 

While we are all quite accustomed to viewing Handler's ample and beautiful breasts, we are not nearly as used to seeing her derriere. 

The usually clothed Offerman, who is one of the stars of Parks and Recreation is no stranger to flashing his junk. He bared everything in 2014 on Deadwood. That being stated he is not someone we see doing this on a regular basis. 

"I love performing -- and I'm not an exhibitionist, I'm not a Kardashian, by any stretch. And I'm not built in the way that people regularly ask me to bare myself," he told Flavorwire of stripping down on camera. "But when things call for it, I've done it on stage, I've done it on screen...I enjoy the beauty of nature." 


Bounce those hot booty's you two!
