The 2012 Superbowl halftime show controversy overshadows the real work done by Madonna in the real world. In a recent press release Madonna announced her Raising Malawi charity is planning to break ground on building 10 schools in Malawi. Sounds to me like Madonna has come a long way since being the “Material Girl” of the 1980s. Perhaps that is a lesson that could be learned by the spoiled brat M.I.A. — and fans could cut Madonna some slack for trying so hard to put on a show while acting like such a good sport. No one is even mentioning the performances by Cee Lo Green (from The Voice) or cool rapper Nicki Minaj. Keep reading…

Elton John and Melanie Amaro Super Bowl commercial a royal joke? (Pepsi)
Fans of reality television show X Factor were anxious to see the new Pepsi commercial featuring this year’s winner Melanie Amaro and other big name music celebrities. During the competition, viewers were teased with video clips of old Pepsi commercials showing big name super stars like Michael Jackson and Britney Spears (joking around and over-the top performing to help sell soda). What they got from Pepsi Cola during Super Bowl 2012 was a commercial featuring Elton John, Flavor Flav and Melanie Amaro dressed up like they were a part of a King’s Court. The David Beckham commercial for H&M and Coke polar bears were MUCH cuter. Keep reading…
X Factor judge suggestions for Simon Cowell include unusual green celebs
Reality television competitions are fierce. Simon Cowell is hoping to land a big name celebrity like Beyonce Knowles, Celine Dion, Mariah Carey for replace Paula Abdul on X factor. He’ll have to find a wild card to replace the Dancing With The Stars Mirror Ball Trophy Winner Nicole Scherzinger (the lead singer from the Pussycat Dolls). If he copies American Idol and tries to hire a male rocker, we wonder if he’d try to get someone like Elton John, Mick Jagger from the Rolling Stones, pop music singer David Bowie. Grace Slick or Cher would be great Baby Boomer generation women to hire as judges on the reality TV show as well. Keep reading…
Could eco-friendly Karma help Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore reunite?
Ashton Kutcher was one of the celebrities who took to Twitter during the 2012 Superbowl to support green celebrity Madonna. During the half time show where she was performing live, the man who has been pretty silent on Twitter tweeted out props to the older pop singer. MTV was one website that noticed his praise of the pretty blonde 53-year old woman, saying, “Kutcher was another fan of the pop titan’s high-energy performance as he confessed, “#fact Madonna is crushing it!” Aside from admiring older women other than his estranged wife Demi Moore, many people have been wondering what else the star celeb has been up to lately.

Madonna Super Bowl half time show shows she is a good sport (#SuperBowl)
Guess I’m getting old, just like my favorite rock stars. More pop than rock, but getting old none the less, Madonna was the musical show at this year’s Super Bowl. Generally speaking the reviews of the half time show has been pretty mixed across social media. To those who speak negatively of the 53 year pop star, we say, chill out, and get a life. For all that is expected, she did quite well. An over choreographed performance of a long career squeezed into 15 minutes. And to top it off she had to share the stage with some of today’s modern stars like rappers Nicki Minaj and M.I.A., and crazy party song group LMFAO. Keep reading…
PETA mad Toto from The Wizard of Oz might be state dog of Kansas?
PETA (the non-profit organization that crusades for animal rights) is opposed to Kansas making Toto their state dog. Whenever someone thinks of actress Judy Garland, chances are they picture her standing there holding her little dog Toto and clicking the heels of her ruby red slippers together while wishing her way back to Kansas. If the state can get licensed to use the movie image of Dorothy and her dog, the boon to the tourist industry could be enough to give local residents the financial windfall to be able to not only buy The Wizard of Oz pets but to also take great care of them (despite the current economic recession).
