Acting 101 - Blocking
Blocking people. It's all about the x and oh's or oh no's. Movie make outs - kissing is more about the good blocking to the camera. Who wants to kiss when H1N1 flu is still out there. You could be a little bit of a hypochondriac and you maybe working with a person who owns a pig. It may not be rational but it can get you out of lot of stuff. Planned play position. Where you put your defensemen, sorta. You just have to make it look like you are doing something. The way your tilt your head or position your body. You don't even have to like the person you just have to stand or sit close enough and tuck or tilt to help with the angles.
Today class we have two actors show the movie magic of blocking. Usually such height differential and hats would be a hindrance but here they are used to the potential advantage. Use what you got.
The key is that one of the two must be aware of where the camera is at all times. They can call out the audibles if necessary usually the one who doing that already.
See the approach ... on the count of 8
Feet together
and cross
and step
watch... the... feet - - feet... position... is important.... hit your marks
Feet are parallel facing each other as they get closer but then actor turns his upper body and a head tilt just enough. And there it is movie magic or he's just trying to show off the booty, ok maybe just pockets of his jeans.
Because he has put himself between them and the camera it looks like something but with no one looking from the other side you will never know if he is just blowing a Cool Ranch Dorito burp or whistling. And no cootie germs bonus!
What? You can't make it out? Must be technical difficulties - don't know what happened
Sorry no refunds - buyer beware.

ReplyDeleteWhat that whole interaction points out is that Reese is working and Jake is not, still. I am expecting a pr blurb about how they have decided to alternate work schedules so they don't have to be apart so much. Watch for it.
ReplyDeleteOr it might be setting up for the Reese is so busy as a single working mom to handle all of that and Jake. Because the kids come first. She's not just America's Sweetheart, she's America's Working Mom.
ReplyDeleteI wonder how come Reeke PR decided they needed to up the public PDA. For a 1 1/2 years all we got was hand holding and now we get kissing, neck nuzziling and hugging. Reeke still looks uncomfortable with the PDA, but is their PR having them do this because there are still so many non believers they are trying to convert or is it ground work for Reeke getting married.
ReplyDeleteWondering it has been a gradual growth of events leading to next summer and the opening of Disneys PoP. It will elevate def to an engagement before then and many wedding rumors. Whether they marry or not we will have to see.
ReplyDeleteThe truth is good actors dont need this crap. They use their skills and charisma. jAKE THE FAKE?????
"The truth is good actors dont need this crap. They use their skills and charisma"
ReplyDeleteITA, Tom.
"Princess of Persia" must be a very average film for them to have to go for publicity by flogging it's star's private life. What did Bruckie call him? "beautiful & hot"? Geez!
You don't do this for a movie a year away. This is about Reese. It's all about Reese. Ryan is getting back from Cannes, Abbie got good press and buzz. That can't happen.
ReplyDeleteAnd you forget it's a holiday weekend. Standard Ops. You don't have to be there you just have make appear that you were or will be.
"The truth is good actors dont need this crap. They use their skills and charisma. jAKE THE FAKE?????"
ReplyDeleteThere re not many good actors then.
M said ...
ReplyDeletepics of Austin looking at Jake, I recall an insider saying that they took one look at each other at the TDAT audition and could not keep their eyes off each other. It really shows<.
I remember that too. And yes it does show. And when you look through the premiere pictures, eventhough there are no pictures of them together, you can see when Jake sees Austin somewhere. You can see it in his face, the difference in his eyes and smile.
I found it odd that Ryan and Abby left Cannes on Monday, I thought her film and her performance was praised and was in the mix for an award. You would think she would want to hang around until the awards were announced.
ReplyDeleteOr maybe with reports about his behaviour over there was too embarrassing and she decided to leave early, they didn't look too thrilled in the pics on Monday at LAx, also there was a Tuesday night sighting of Ryan in NY sans Abby.
Don't think Abby is too thrilled now, no need for Jake and Reese's PR to do anything.
I'ms sorry Adam lost, but not surprised. Not sure how much homophobia played into it, although I'm sure there were a lot of "Christians" and homophobes dialing for Kris. I heard some interviews on NPR this morning, the gay writer who wrote the article for EW thought it was an upset, and that Adam was the only thing that made the show bearable this year, but didn't opine why he thought it went the way it did.
ReplyDeleteA writer from Out said they didn't see homophobia in it, just the usual AI tendency to vote for the underdog and the blander candidates, plus people who had backed the guy voted out last week throwing their votes to Adam. I tend to agree with the latter. One reason I've never watched the show much in the past is because the music and performers usually don't interest me, and Adam was definitely not in that mold.
In the end it doesn't matter, because like many of the men who have won, in a few years it will be "Kris who" and Adam's career will be just fine. If Adam and Kris really are friends, I bet even Adam is not so disappointed that Kris gets to have his moment.
Dear Ted:
ReplyDeleteI admire Reese Witherspoon and wonder why in the world she would agree to be Jake's "whatever"? Did Ryan do such a number on her that she lost all desire to "love" again? They do "look" well together—and I guess in Hollywood that's about as good as it gets.
—A Stewart
Dear Shocker:
You mean those au lait dates aren't for real? Whatever are you talking about, love?
Reality,
ReplyDeleteThere are many good actors - only small number of them is using tabloids and gossip sites PR.
I think Adam will be just fine. He will get many offers. He won't have to do that AI song as his first single. And don't the winners have to promote certain products too? He may be better off.
ReplyDeleteThey all use tabloids and gossip sites and PR at some time in their career. Even if its for a charity event. You have to. You have to get your name and face out there, even if its just coming up in your career they all have.
ReplyDeleteBecause he has put himself between them and the camera it looks like something but with no one looking from the other side you will never know if he is just blowing a Cool Ranch Dorito burp or whistling.x
ReplyDeleteHe's kissing her, Special. Do you honestly believe he's not? Really? You are really reaching here.
Historically it's been those people who haven't won Idol who have gone on to do better than those who did.
ReplyDeleteLOL, Special!!
ReplyDeleteCool, our first deleted comment today. That's kinda exciting.
Level Orange, red alert!!
Man, Special, this post today is hilarious.
Just a couple of things real quick.
1) LOL, I was so hacked when I hit the shower, I didn't need the ol' exfoliating sponge. I scrubbed that washcloth hard enough, I exfoliated with simple ringspun cotton! The gal who sleeps above me probably heard me muttering up a storm.
2) I think everyone is making good & valid points. For some reason, I do think this is still all about Reese, but he doesn't need to go along with it. So yeah, there probably is a hidden agenda.
3) All the same, Reeke is still fake. His body still looks awkward, leaning from the upper body first kind of how I do with that older gentleman at my old church, lol.
4) I like wondering & Cannes comments, too, because you guys make good points. To be fair, we do have to think about all angles and Cannes, you're making a point that I was thinking, too, while I was scrubbing away. But then again, like you said, Wondering, why ram it up after two years of no PDA. There's got to be a reason. Their hormones just didn't now kick in, give me a stinking break. We're not blind or stupid here.
5) Which leads me to my final conclusion: this High Gear mode tends to make me dig in my heels all the more. I think I"m going to have to lay on my Jaustin Talk all the more heavier & make PR get out the sick buckets.
LOL, I"m serious. I may have to do some photo ops of my own when I go up East. I wish I could expand, but I've got to go.
I happened to look at these pictures before coming here this AM and you are spot on. I felt like a director was in the wings yelling action and cut. I found them reassuring. Why? No Austin smile evident. Jake just can not fake the glee when he sees Austin no matter how hard he tries to display it for another. 2. body language. These are not lovers kissing.
ReplyDeleteI also agree that Jake is just a bit player in the Reese PR campaign that started around her divorce. Actually, the best thing that ever happened to Toothy is R Pattison. I would summarize Jake's fan base right now as totally indifferent. Ted's world is overtaken by the new it guy and Toothy comments are lost in the avalanche.
I agree that stars need pr, but there are many ways to go about it. There is absolutely no need for a 24/7 shomance and/or becoming tabloid fodder.
ReplyDeleteJust to take one example, Sophia Bush. Regularly seen at charity events and fashion shows. Rarely seen with whomever she is dating at the moment, even at said events.
Z. Quinto, K. Reeves, M. Damon, to name a few others.
And speaking of Quinto, there were a number of comments on JJ from "former JG fans" cheering him on.
And to me Jake is increasingly looking like someone who is hanging out with Reese because he has nothing else to do, especially in the new pictures. It has that stay-at-home unemployed hubby visiting the wife at work feel. How exactly does that help his career.
Sophia's been in the tabloids. She's hooked up with half the guys on OTH. She dates Nathan now. She goes to everything cause she wants more attention than Chad and rest of the cast.
ReplyDelete"come on", sure he is, no doubt. That's just it. There's no doubt here. Because it wouldn't surprise me a bit that since they were going to do this little show, that PR said "And hey, Jake, while you're at it, you need to actually get your lips on hers? Getting your head on her shoulder up near her jaw just doesn't cut it, babe". That last PDA in Italy was subpar when it came down to it. Reese can do it. He can't pull it off.
ReplyDeleteAt first I was going to agree with you, Destiny, but actually, this is the second photo op in about 4 weeks. They have pretty good breaks in between and it's just that we haven't many solos of him lately. We're just not seeing him all those other times.
I don't know, perhaps there was too much testosterone vibe going on with Jake and his little blue shorts since we're not getting anymore of him with those of the male persuasion. Those blue shorts have been getting him into too much trouble. So, who's left? It's like all he does is hang out with girls. Reese. Mom. And all their female PR assistants/Girl Fridays.
You know, now that I think about it. I think Reese may have her movies mixed up. She thought it was "Never Been Kissed"! Where's Drew?!
Look how they're practically on homeplate. I do need to call them out on one thing. How come they're not glaring at the paps on this one? Let us wonder about this. Let's see. Jake glares at them on the sidewalk. At the airport. At the car "Don't touch the car". But here, in all their glory, they both seem, why, absolutely oblivious of the paps because they see no one else but each other.
LOLLL. Seriously, at homeplate on the field? If they wanted all that so coveted privacy that they value, he would've waited for her in the dugout & then really laid one on her. I look for these pics to be in an upcoming Us Reekly.
good morning everyone!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope everything is right for you and specially for you PrairieGirl. I see you are still active and that pleases me to hear from you... well others too of course( I don't want jealousy) LOL
I would like to post more regularly but I am taken by revisions and my head ,if I dare to say, frolics toward others heavens.
Of course I don't forget my darling boys who are first in my glorious list but sometimes it happen to me to be guilty of infidelity lol
During my formation I met someone completely intoxicated by egyptology. He is able to talk about it night and day and knows all pharaons dynasties by heart, it's simply impressive! It recalled me I was obsessed by Ramses II when I was 15 LOL, he was my idol, I read everything possible about him , how strange thing! All my friends fatasized on Brad pitt or boys band singers and me on a man died 2500 ans ago.
Hey I know,you can say I need help , I wouldn't be angry don't worry! lol
He went to egypt and of course, described me all the wonders he saw and made me dream!
Maybe one day....
For now I am lost between books of Art and the last new from Cannes!
Seemingly, the choice for the palm will be difficult for the jury.
I hear the last Tarantino disappointed critics , "too long and pretentious" for some!. A lot here talked about the last Campion with Abby Cornish, overall it seems a good movie but a bit too classic and contemplative for some reviewers! I love Campion work, I think I will see it.
Otherwise you have THE scandal "Antéchrist" from Lars von Trier with critics up and critics down.
I read a Charlotte Gainsbourg interview and she said she wouldn't probably do again an experience like this, well promising then lol
To end I wish Pedro Almodovar win! His movie is unanimly hightly praised and I am a fan of him.
Ah Cannes... my favorite may saga LOL
Oh and I saw on WDW the first still from "brothers", a pic with tobey and jake, I hope for much much more now, please!!!
"And when you look through the premiere pictures, eventhough there are no pictures of them together, you can see when Jake sees Austin somewhere. You can see it in his face, the difference in his eyes and smile."
just thanks you special k!!!!

ReplyDeleteYou know if the Reeke team really wanted pictures like these to look real and genuine, they wouldn't release the "process" photos; the however many shots it takes to secure one or two good ones for the magazine articles. The kissing shot, on its own, out of nowhere would have more impact. Hypothetically speaking of course; Reeke never look like the real deal.
ReplyDeleteThe shots of Jake watching from the dugout are just so set up. He looks more like the dad in these - not helped by the fact that Reese looks 12. :P
Daniel Day Lewis, Dustin Hoffman, Robert Deniro, Tom Hanks, Meryl Streep, Sissy Spacek, Charlize Theron etc etc etc. Most of your best actors are not fame whores. Thats a fact.
ReplyDeleteDestiny. Fail Shot. Hear! Hear!
ReplyDeletelol.
So, do we have a Richard Dawson, "And the answer (total) is!!!"
How many pics do we have so far?
And the total is.....Ding!
Oh no!!! Wait a minute, I got that wrong. It's...
ReplyDeleteSurvey says !!!LOL
You know, I'm serious. The more the ante is upped? I'm going to have to be up for it, myself. Gotta put the gameface on.
ReplyDeleteGame on!This is a ten rounder. They don't know who they're dealing with here.
I don't know. How many rounds in a boxing match, I have no idea.
Hey, it's the Slimfast Milk Chocolate Meal in a Can today!! Yippee. It was the fastest thing I could grab this morning.
Hey, we got Dad's tomatoes last night. Got a Roma tomato plant. An Heirloom plant. And I forget what the third was, but Mom said she had seen it before and it was a funny looking tomato. Oops. Sorry about that. Well, 2 out of 3 isn't bad.
You and me both PG. My interest in Jake is waning, but I'll be damned if get out of the ring before the match is over.
ReplyDeleteI just took an early lunch and ran a fool's errand. I ran over to where they were having the CW upfronts, but I left later than planned, took longer to get there, and then spent some time in the wrong place before figuring out it was all at the back entrance of the venue. Sigh. I saw some people jumping into limos that I had no idea who they were. Most of the fans left, except some small die-hard groups, I talked to them and they were OTH fans, and they said they had not seen one person from OTH enter or leave. Then after waiting a couple of minutes, someone came out and said, "that's all."
Oh well, at least it was a beautiful day to be running around, instead of surfing the net during lunch.
Jake can stand on homeplate with Reese until the cows come home, doesn't change the fact that the only one in this triangle who has rounded all of Jake's bases and slid into fifth is Austin.
ReplyDeleteI'm with destiny and pg, interest waning, but can't keep away, I mainly come here to read the comment which are always fun.
ReplyDeleteApologies for the weird conspiracy theorising the other morning, think I'm suffering for 'too light in the morning' syndrome, expect weird, half baked ideas to appear every now and again from me until about mid July when it stops getting light at around 4:30 here.
btw.. does anyone know whether OTH will be doing these 'upfronts', love to see Austin's, and also when OTH starts filming again.
***LOL, I"m serious. I may have to do some photo ops of my own when I go up East.***
ReplyDeleteYES! This MUST happen!
Also agree that Jake really is beginning to look abit 'under employed needy house husbandish'.
ReplyDeleteApologises again to any actual under employed needy house husbands, but Reesy, that really isn't an aspirational bf situation for us plebs, more like a weight round your neck (and your bank balance).
Good one Destiny. There wont be getting to any home plate for reese with jAKE THE FAKE.
ReplyDeleteI have a lot of friends who are currently unemployed, and I certainly did not not mean to slight anyone who is in that predicament. To my knowledge none of my friends are engaging in a fauxmance as a job-finding strategy.

ITA
Meg, at least according to my "sources" from my fool's errand to the upfronts today, Austin and the other case memebers were not at the upfronts.
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of which,OTH Fan, when you say Sophia has been in the tabloids, can you describe the coverage? Was it a multi-page spread complete with arranged pap photos of the happy couple in restaurants, on vacation, etc? Or was it just a photo of Sophia and/or a blurb? If I'm wrong I'm wrong, but I've never seen her do anything like Reeke. If you're still around I'd love to know exactly what you've seen.
Also, my point wasn't that someone like Sophia isn't out there promoting herself, my point is that at least as long as I've been aware of her, and from what I've seen, she is using herself, not her relationships, to promote herself. I applaud stars who take that route for pr. It may just be the sites and the random tabloids I've seen, but, for example, in the two years she was dating Jon Foster I only saw one set of papped photos of the two of them.
It's funny, some of the trolls used to criticize Austin on the grounds that he was only with Jake for publicity. Now those same trolls are probably the ones defending Jake who is the real one using a relationship for publicity.
Do all movie sets have such crappy security that allow paps within shooting distance, or is it just the aets of Jake and Reese movies that seem to have that problem?
ReplyDeleteI see things being filmed in NYC all the time. I've never seen a pap hanging out, not even when Angelina was filming near my office and causing quite a commotion.
ReplyDeletethe amounts of times reesy has been photoed on that blinking sports field make me think that this film may be having problems with financing and she's desparately trying to drum up some much needed buzz. Maybe that why poor Jake got dragged along for the rather awkward smooch session. Interestingly it doesn't seem that these pics are being picked up many places, but I suppose we'll just have to wait and see.
ReplyDeleteMeg, I was looking at it on IMTB or whatever that's called (I know that's not the right combination of letters, but you know) and there's no firm info on it. I don't even see a name on the movie yet. It stars Ben Stiller & Reese, and then possibly some other actress and then there's nobody else listed. It's just called A Project of somebody somebody, two names starting with a c. LOL, aren't I a big help?! snicker!!
ReplyDeleteHey, I'm outta here & headed home. I'll see you guys in just a bit.
I know that some people here hate Reese with a passion but please try to get at least your facts correct.
ReplyDeleteHer next project has absolutly no financial problems - the director is James L. Brooks - most actors would sell their mother to be in one of his films.
Ben Stiller has nothing to do with this film.
Prepare for nice pics of Jake visiting his "lady" in Philadelphia...
Thanks for the info lorna, maybe Reese is just making sure we're so bored of pics of her practising softball that we'll definately not want to go to see the dreary film it will eventually become.
ReplyDelete"most actors would sell their mother to be in one of his films"
ReplyDeleteLOL, if that was the case the movie would have better cast.
"most actors would sell their mother to be in one of his films"
ReplyDeleteblimey, his last proper film would appear to be Spanglish. Isn't this the sort of film most actors would sell their mothers to avoid, and most of the paying public as well.
(OT, sorry for such major posting tonight, bit bored, raining the hell outside and its a toss up between the internet or the chelsea flower show and politicans dodgy expenses claims on the tv).

Does anyone know if reeses Mom is missing or Ok. I hope so.
jAKE THE FAKE!
Lorna, you know, you could've put your comment a little nicer. There's no need to be rude.
ReplyDelete1st, I do not hate Reese. I don't hate anyone. Can't stand her, yeah, can't stand the pretty clear personality. But hate, no. Not even her. Not even Charles Manson. Not even Jeffrey Dahmer. Not even the people who flew our own planes into the Twin Towers.
Okay? Let's get that straight, first and foremost.
2nd, wow, sorry, I got my facts all mixed up. I thought this baseball thing was her next movie that she was filming. And I thought Ben Stiller was in it. Yup, apparently really blew that one! lol. Hey, everyone else here (regulars) knows how terrible I am at movies. But I was telling the truth that on IMBD (?) that her current project doesn't have a name and there's only 3 actors named so far and one of them isn't even confirmed. Check it out yourself.
So, Lorna, what is this new movie about, this new one that's going to be filmed in Philly. Because actually, now that I think about it, that's what JustJared said, too, when they posted the first pictures of her practicing over there. That was just before the wedding in Italy. What's it about and who's her co star, fill me in please. I do beg uneducatedness, I reckon.
Well said PG.
ReplyDeletePG are you stilling waiting for those pictures that actually place reese at Maggies weddings. Havent come in yet have they.
Speaking of reeses family. I think we need to ask PR to get them into this facade. Havent seen old jAKE THE FAKE kissing his mother in law to be yet. Oh when that happens I will most certainly believe:-)
Pg, you are cracking me UP today. Thank you for making a stressful day bearable.
ReplyDelete"Level Orange, red alert!!"
"Oh no!!! Wait a minute, I got that wrong. It's..."
Survey says !!!LOL
"Game on!This is a ten rounder. They don't know who they're dealing with here."
Oh, got it!! Yeah, I'm wrong as a flip flop on a little duck. It's Owen Wilson and Paul Rudd in this baseball movie that's going to start filming in Philly starting in July. bows on ground Sorry, guys, my bad!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of bad, Special, you are spot on about these pictures. In all of them, he's standing not only a good distance back, but his left shoulder is way back. Then he goes down for the ol' smackeroo and all of a sudden, that entire shoulder & upper body do a pivot and block the shot! What the heck!! And actually, it doesn't affect me now whether or not they're actually smooching, but when you do look at it? Look at the matchup of where their mouths should be versus where they are. She's flatfooted and so is he. He's a ton taller than her. And look at where her mouth should be lining up. It kinda lines up more with his chin than where his mouth probably is.
Plus, he was the only one in the dugout and so I wonder if there was no one in the dugout when he came out. No one on the other side to testify where such said kiss actually took place.
lol. Man, they wouldn't be so silly as to fake it, would they? Shoot, gotta do the photo op, just go ahead and stamp one on, man! Just do it.
But I really kinda gotta wonder now. Things not lining up right. Hey, so where was that other photographer like they had in Italy so we could get the North & the South views?
Okay, gotta let it rest. I believe all the fallacies, errors, acting gaffes, and weaknesses have been pointed out enough.
I am sorry for being so cheeky today. I don't know what the deal is.
I want to move on to alot nicer subject and that's Elinor! Elinor, I was wondering about you. You disappeared for just a little bit on us. Not a problem at all, tho, for we all take vacations, have internet provider problems, get mad & pout (uh, that would be, uh -- me), etc. so don't worry.
So, are you into art? Is that what you mean? I enjoy looking at it and have you ever heard of Sister Wendy?
And are you saying that you're corresponding with someone via the internet who knows all about Egypt? How did you find this person, like on a blog? If I'm too nosy, just tell me, lol. I was just kind of curious. Oh rats, you're probably asleep now, aren't you? Well, maybe you'll see this tomorrow, no biggie.
Okay, well, I can tell when I have the chats. So I oughta give it a rest for awhile because who knows what else could come out that wouldn't be too brilliant.
There isn't problems with the financing and I don't think the studios are behind all the photo ops.
ReplyDeleteIt just seems that Reese is more behind the photo ops out of her own need to get attention. She is in People's Star Tracks again today.
I remember that scene in Soapdish when Sally Fields character would call Whoopi her long time friend on the set and they would go to the mall in Jersey and so the fans could give her attention. It kind of reminds of that. Bad day, call and get a picture.
Hey, Clarity! I'm mouthy & chatty today; that's a really bad combo.
ReplyDeleteAnd now I have yet another correction to make. Just Jared didn't say this movie with Ben Stiller was being filmed in Philly. The baseball movie is being filmed there but it's the movie that Lorna is talking about. I had to go look it up - hey, when I'm wrong, I say I'm wrong. And this one had all kinds of wrong in it. Movies. Just a further endorsement that this one doesn't know squat about them.
Yeah, still waiting on the courtyard pic. Boy, I dunno, maybe I oughta repeat that one in a "low talker" voice. Lookit what happened with Deacon. No, I'm kidding. I'm not afraid to make that request again.
survey says! Remember that show? Ol' Richard Dawson, talk about smooching. lol. That guy had to kiss every single female, didn't he? But it was a good show. I can still hear that theme song, too.
Who wants to kiss when H1N1 flu is still out there. You could be a little bit of a hypochondriac and you maybe working with a person who owns a pig.
ReplyDeleteLOL
***Yeah, I'm wrong as a flip flop on a little duck.***
ReplyDeleteROTFLMAO!!!
Hi guys, super disappointed about Adam not winning AI last night, but like others I'm not surprised.
ReplyDeleteI decided to take a break from looking at Reeke pics and it's certainly lifted my mood. Even if they were for real this pairing would still bore me.
hey Tom, good to see you too :)
I dont know anything about the movie's plot line, nor do I know that much about softball, but based on the the pics of Reese practicing that keep showing up, she looks horribly miscast. Just Jared people are tired of her and the movie is not even made yet.
ReplyDeleteI've paid attention to Sophia Bush only because we have similar coloring. This makes for good clues for makeup tips and flattering colors. She is always well put together and dressed appropriate to the occassion. I've never seen anything trashy written about her.
I find the pics of Jake peering through the fence creepy. Largely bad lighting I know, but they are not flattering to him.
Thanks Destiny for the scouting around the CW upfronts.
ReplyDeleteSad, it doesn't look like anyone from OTH was there. I think the CW was focusing on selling their three news shows the new Melrose Place, Vampire Diaries,and The Beautiful Life.
With only 9 shows on the CW network, they should have plenty of space and resources to promote Austin and the new cast coming on OTH.
"***Yeah, I'm wrong as a flip flop on a little duck.***
ReplyDeleteROTFLMAO!!!"
HAHAHAHA...she's on a roll today isn't she : D
I agree Orchid - you have to take a break from this stuff sometimes or you will go nuts. I have to admit I needed a distraction today. Work was horrendous.
Distraction is definitely a requirment some days, clarity. Hope tommorrow's a better day for you.
ReplyDeleteI hear so many people talking about how horrendous the work place has become. Seems like when times are tough companies and managers can treat and dump on folks big time because everyone is afraid of losing their jobs. My companies is doing everything poosible to get every possible thing they can from as few employees as possible. More work.
ReplyDeleteLess employees. No appreciation. Its called they got ya by the b*lls
Have a better day tomorrow Clarity.
Hope I am not making it any tougher for you to visit her. I am such a grouch. Just so angry at Jake still from that concert.
.
What's tough is when you don't hear from people you used to work with, because they don't know what to say because you got laid off, fear you could be the bad layoff mojo, or they are working like crazy to keep what they have at work.
ReplyDeleteMarie Osmond talks about her lesbian daughter
ReplyDeleteI saw the interview Marie gave when it was on and it was really good. Go Marie!
ReplyDeleteIt goes along way away from what the LDS church has preached about homosexuality. And it will make an impact because the Osmonds have be the most famous family to those outside of LDS community.
And now what Ted said about Marie when Prop 8 came up all makes sense.
I just saw this on wft2, missed it from yesterday (before the AI final), from Ted:
ReplyDeleteThe Zachary and Adam Factor
Zachary Quinto and Adam Lambert are two of the country's hottest, most alive, most talented young men rising in the arts right now: Quinto as a young Spock in J.J. Abrams' Star Trek, and Lambert, in case you've been hiding under a rock the size of Paul Abdul's pill collection, as the most fiery contestant on American Idol in ages.
Indeed, Lambert very well may take the Idol crown from corn-fed dude Kris Allen tonight. Here's hoping! But look, here's the rub, as it were: Much has been whispered and gossiped and talked about regarding Quinto's and Lambert's sexualities. Are they gay or not? Do they have girlfriends or boyfriends? A money-paying public has the right to know, right?
Yes...and no.
I get Quinto's and Lambert's reticence completely. They want a damn chance to get their names out there, talent-wise, before hate-spewing Bill O'Reilly and his ilk start questioning whether or not guys like this should even be in the public eye. Jeez, it's no wonder folks don't want to come out, what with half of Fox News' viewership ready to tar and feather anybody they even half suspect of being gay! Thanks a lot, intolerant America.xx
Interesting that Ted is being so out there with Quinto. And while I agree it is up to individuals as to when to come out, as long as they're not part of the "problem", I totally disagree with Ted's reasoning. I feel like he's being an apologist and giving power to the homophobes by saying people should just accept it and say nothing.
If nobody ever stood up in the face of such talk we'd never had had Stonewall, Harvey Milk, AIDS protesters, gay marriage in five, almost six states, and on and on.
Oh, and half of O'Reilly's audience=what, roughly 500 thousand to a million old homophobes who are probably still lamenting the fact that women have rights and black are still not at the back of the bus?
ReplyDeleteSomething I just observed on IMDB, Reese's star meter rating has plunged to 199; in the column showing news stories related to her they have a link to an imdb page that shows he After Elton poll, and how Jake didn't top it as in previous years. And on that page, in the "related" stories was one about Adam Lambert possibly losing because of his sexuality. Hmmmm....
ReplyDeleteSimilar stories, not related.
ReplyDeleteNice to see Jake managed to escape the Brentwood correctional facility for an evening.
ReplyDeleteaway from the chin
Not much interest in Jake nowadays. I just wonder on a daily basis what he gets out of this deal, if he's happy with the way things are going and how long this will go on. He used to be the hottest it guy in HW and is now one of the biggest bores. I also wonder why both Ryan and Jake became mere sidenotes once they got involved with Reese. Why must she be the sole center of attention? What does she do that sucks the hotness out of the guys in her life? Also who wants to be a fan of a perfect woman? I just don't understand that image. I tend to be attracted to/ become a fan of stars that have faults and seem human but still manage to shine in their field. Perfect people leave me cold and are just not interesting.
ReplyDeleteAnyway. Hope things will be different with Quinto and Lambert. My friend tried to get me watching AI but I didn't and now regret it. Also I know the film club topic was on another thread but I'm throwing the new Star Trek out for consideration. It would be easily available to see and we could compare the male bonding dynamics with TDAT.
