Where does one go from here? Each and every video that artist Lady Gaga puts out is more over the top than the last. This one is so much so that all 9 minutes of the video are action-packed.In “Telephone”, Gaga collaborated with Beyonce — double the star power means double the excitement. This video, by the incredibly talented Lady G, is filled with sex, violence, various states of undress, and language. We’ll go out on a limb and deem it “not safe for work.”
The video features Gaga in prison, from where she gets bailed out by Beyonce. They go to a diner where, after a series of events, they kill the guests having dinner. It ends with Gaga and Beyonce escaping from the police. The video, which has already received positive reviews from critics, is a nod to Quentin Tarantino for his 2003 film “Kill Bill”.
The American Idol Top 12 on Season 9 were determined last night with the elimination of four singers. Reaching the end of the line and heading home were Katelyn Epperly, Alex Lambert, Lilly Scott and Todrick Hall.
Lambert was the most emotional of those who got the boot. A favorite among his fellow contestants, the tears were flowing all around as his friends surrounded him during a commercial break. When the show resumed, host Ryan Seacrest said he had never witnessed such an emotional outpouring. Hit hardest was Siobhan Magnus, who openly sobbed.
There was a Top 12 party at the Industry Club in Los Angeles after last night’s show wrapped. Posing for photos were the Top 12 finalist: Crystal Bowersox, Siobhan Magnus, Didi Benami, Lee Dewyze, Michael Lynche, Casey James, Andrew Garcia, Lacey Brown, Tim Urban, Aaron Kelly, Paige Miles, and Katie Stevens.
Also on hand at the party were former AI contestants Justin Guarini, Matt Giraud, and Scott MacIntyre. There was even an appearance by always gorgeous Terri Seymour, former girlfriend of judge Simon Cowell. He recently announced his engagement to another dark haired beauty, Mezhgan Hussainy.
Top performers up to this point are Crystal Bowersox and Michael Lynche. The entire group will sing songs from the Rolling Stones songbook next week.
Is it fair for a celebrity to get opportunities that the rest of the world would never have? Rapper DMX continues to find himself in trouble because of his drug addiction. This week DMX was arrested, once again for violating his probation for using, but he may not spend too much time behind bars because of his celebrity status.
His lawyer, Gary Jenkin told TMZ that there might be a chance that the rapper will slide by without going to jail. Jenkins said that reps from “Celebrity Rehab” contacted him after the arrest on Tuesday and stated their interest in having the troubled celebrity on the show.
In the past, show host Dr. Drew went to court on behalf of former American Idol contestant Jessica Sierra and saved her from serving any jail time by putting her on the reality show. Word has it they are considering sending a rep to DMX’s next court date.
DMX is currently cooling his heels on a no-bond hold and is due back in front of the judge on March 16. Our guess…he will stay behind bars. This isn’t his first, second, third or fourth arrest. It is time to get serious and hold the musician accountable for his unfortunate actions.
When Constance McMillen, an 18-year-old senior at Itawamba Agricultural High School in Mississippi, announced she’d be wearing a tuxedo and bringing a female date to the school’s senior prom the school district said no way. School officials then circulated a flier stating that same-sex prom dates were prohibited.
The American Civil Liberties Union demanded that officials change the policy, stating it is a violation of students’ rights and not allowing McMillen to wear a tuxedo to prom violated her right to free expression. The ACLU gave the school district a deadline to rescind the ruling and, on Wednesday, the school board voted to cancel the prom rather than allow McMillen to attend with her girlfriend.
On Thursday, the ACLU filed a lawsuit in U.S. District Court in Oxford to force the school district to sponsor the prom and allow McMillen to bring whom she chooses and wear what she wants.
The school board released a statement saying it chose to cancel the prom ”due to the distractions to the educational process caused by recent events,” but did not mention McMillen or her girlfriend, who is also a student at the school.
Constance was reluctant to return to school following the decision but her father encouraged her to face her classmates, teachers and school officials.
“My daddy told me that I needed to show them that I’m still proud of who I am,” McMillen said. “The fact that this will help people later on, that’s what’s helping me to go on.”
