Another black couple hit the fan?!?!?!

I am hoping this rumour isn't true but it seems yet another couple may be walking up the divorce aisle...tis a sad shame! I repeat I swear there is something in the water called divorce juice! All jokes aside this is a sad state of affairs what is going on?!?!? Many folk were a tad skeptical about this union from the get go and I'm not surprised if this post was anything to go by. Watch this space eh......

JLS

I have heard this joint on the radio several times and never knew it was our very own Brit boy quartet JLS. I don’t want to seem like I’m knocking them but the video’s a little contrived. The JLS lads seem like they are trying just a little too hard and I do not love the whole body popping/locking awkward jerky movements. I swear Jonathon does the Harlem shake toward the end of the video.... OH HELL TO THE NAH!!!! Diversity they are not but their vocal abilities are okay and at least they have got rid of those colourful JLS t-shirts. Go boy’s you have a strong female following and I’m sure you’ll be just fine!!

Drama week 5.....

I've officially reached the half-way mark within my course-hoorah! Today's class was about letting go of your inhibitions and really getting into character. We did our usual warm up exercises which consisted of reciting doh-ray-me-fah-so-lah-tee-doh, mini role-plays and breathing exercises. We then got into pairs where one of us was an alien from another planet and the other was the translator, of course I chose the role of the alien. Then we had to recite a scene from Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid and Pulp Fiction.
Howah our tutor told us to get deep into character and to pretend we are with the people who make us most comfortable, to speak and act like the character and really get into the zone. As time goes on she is pushing us to loose all doubts and self-consciousness and to just be free and not worry what others are thinking. This week’s homework is to observe how we talk as well as others, how we portray our body language the pace of our speech the pitch and most importantly the tone.

Hip-Hop Beyond Beats & Rhymes

Very interesting documentary that explores the real issues behind hip-hop music including manhood, sexism, masculinity, violence and homophobia. There are several different perspectives from fans, rappers and music moguls. This really got me thinking about the many different genres of music I let seep into my mind and the hidden messages incorporated in the lyrics and videos. As well as the big corporate men who fatten their pockets by exploiting the hip-hop culture and the artists involved within it.

This isn't new but thanks Williams for bringing this to my attention.

The latest addition to my wardrobe...

yes, yet another pair of shoes! I've had my eye on these beauties since March now, they are the YSL tribute t-bar shoes. Now obviously mine are not YSL as I don't have hundreds of pounds to waste. They are courtesy of Matalan and at least an inch shorter. These shoes are HOT and they will be getting their debut tomorrow-good times!!!!!!!!!!!!

Drama week 4

I'm really getting into my Drama course now and I can feel the confidence growing as the weeks go by. Today we looked at monolgues and how to get into character, how to feel the emotions and how to portray it back to your audience. We looked at body language, the way in which we speak and how it is perceived and we also did several role plays which I really love doing!!!

I also got to learn a bit more about my tutor today; she is so cool. She is the kind of person I could chill with on a daily basis. Today she advised me that when I do my Entertainment slot or other public speaking that I should not be so self- conscious. I should use the radio as my platform/stage be my usual funny/mad/quirky self and don't worry about what people at home think, to just really go for it. This course is teaching more and more about my self every week...I LOVE IT!!!!!! Roll on week 5!!!!!!!

Kanye's new video....

Check out Kanye’s new video below. Is it me or are his videos becoming less and less creative. Then again most artists don’t really step out of the boat much when it comes to videos, it’s the same old repetitive ish. Maybe the recession is affecting everyone after all -who knows! Anywhoo this looks more like Rhianna’s video and that Kanye is making the cameo appearance… isn’t that the wrong way round?!?!?!?
Do you remember the day’s when you would actually look forward to the video of your favourite artists?!?!? Take a peep below.
