Parks & Recreation season 2 premier
The Office Season 6 premier
vh1 DIVAS 2009
Community Series premier
the real housewives of Atlanta
project runway
and
models of the runway

you may be saying to yourself right now, damn he watches too much TV, and i say to you , you're right. but i love it so ha!

I'm superrr excited for some more P&R. . . Amy p. is so damn funny, and some of the previews I've been seeing for the new season look so funny.

who doesn't love the office? i mean seriously, that show is brilliant, and after last years ending , Ive been itching for more and more!

OK and seriously..when i heard DIVAS was coming back to vh1 i peed a little in my panties, OK i didn't, but i instantly marked it on my calendar ! ..someday i will be on that shit.

I'm excited to see what this 'community' show is going to be like. the previews look promising!, and of course the rest is just my usual Thursday trash, Kim gets drunk or somethin tonight on TRHOA , and Heidi is probably going to be uber bitch supreme again on project runway, like usual.

ohemgee look at how fat Eva longoria looks on PR tonight! ha ha have u seen the previews? musta been when she was all fat for DH. . . which starts later this month, along with brothers and sisters !!!! SO EXCITED, did i mention they start the same night as Dexter season 4?! im wet

in some music related news the new JoJo song is bangin, not in the i want to dance to this kinda way, but in the damn she sounds awesome on this track and its catchy as hell.

the song is called 'forever in my life' and its an up-tempo ballad. its pretty fab. her voice sounds excellent, and i think shes really coming into her own finally, her first two Cd's where pretty decent, and I've always been impressed with her voice, especially with her being so young, but shes on fire now, shes really gaining great control of her voice!. check out the song below!

well that's all for now, peace love and drugs

MisterTom.

ps. i download 'tardy for the party' today... and its now on my ipod... I'm ashamed.

<3

lets talk Mariah

so who doesn't love Mariah? if you don't just stop reading, because I'm going to continue to talk about just how much i LOVE HER.

i think my first realization that i loved this bitch, came around the time she was releasing her Rainbow Album circa 1999. . . which would make me 11 , which would mean that i have been obsessed with this DIVA for 10 years.

if you know me, you probably know that i can sing along to almost any Mariah song like i wrote that shit myself, but seriously... what gay cant?!

Mariah is the epitome of divaliciousness that bitch knows exactly what she wants, always demands it, and gets pissed if she doesn't get it, my hero.

you're probably asking yourself, why the hell is he dedicating a whole blog to just Mariah, well lets see, she has the most number 1 singles for a solo artist, second only to the Beatles, that's saying a lot, considering she's a woman, which lets be honest , isn't always a plus in the music business.

she has like a ridiculous vocal range, I'm pretty sure she can hit notes on Dolphins can hear,,, haha kidding of course, that's just a rumor from what i can gather, but damn, i wouldn't be surprised if she could while she was in her prime! , meaning of course that her voice has dwindled in the past years, but does that matter? no.

she has sold over 60 million albums in the US alone, and over 200 million records world-wide. which ranks her as the number one selling female artist in the united states, and 3rd over all in the world. not too shabby for a woman who's almost 40 !

which brings me to my real reason for writing this blog, she is set to release her 12Th full length studio album in less than 2 weeks (Sept. 29Th), and shes almost 40!! that's pretty crazy, considering the break down she faced in 2001 after Glitter...which BTW, was a pretty shitty movie, but i loved it, and i loved the album even more, and i find it to be one of her most diverse, and interesting pieces of work , ever. Needless to say, that album doesn't get the credit it deserves, only because it was paired with a less than average movie.


she doesn't just stick to music though, as I've already mentioned she's dabbled in some acting ventures, starring alongside people like Padma Lakshmi (Host of Bravo's Emmy award winning series Top Chef) and academy award winning actress Mira Sorvino or as a i like to call her, Romy White. . . I'm the Mary you re the Rhoda.

and now she has a VERY highly anticipated movie coming out, titled Precious, and it looks quite stunning, check out the preview below




if you missed mariah in the preview, don't worry, i did too the first time i saw it, here's a snap shot of her from the movie :




i know that's some crazy shit, doesn't look like her one bit!!, loves it !i knew she had SOME sort of acting talent.. haha. .. some

well to wrap things up her new album is titled "Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel" and its said to be one of her more personal albums, plus having written and produced most of the tracks herself, i have a feeling it will be!. not to mention check out the hot album cover... you cant go wrong lookin like that !



the lead single "Obsessed" was released a few months back, when the album had an original release date of august 15Th but it was pushed back, which led her to release another single , a remake of foreigners classic "I Want To Know What Love Is" and its amazing, i do believe I've even talked about it a little on this page!

so that's that, my blog for Mariah, oh how i love thee


MisterTom

so i just have to blog right now!

OHEMGEE who's excited about BB?!

SPOILER ALERT




JORDAN WON WOOOOOOOOO thats right, my big busted, beautiful blonde bombshell pulled through and EARNED her victory tonight HOLLLLLLA im lovin BB right now, finally for the first time in years someone i wanted to win, actually did win !! <333




so it was between her and kevin to win the final HOH of the season, after tying 3 to 3 in the question round, they had to do a tie breaker, which always involves a number... which had me NERVOUS as HELL for jordan... shes blonde remember?






well the question was "including tie breakers how many votes to evict have been cast this entire season' ... the answer was 51 votes, Kevin guessed 80 and jordin fricken guessed 50 !!!!! she was 1 fricken number away from being DEAD ON!! how insane is that, you could tell she pulled the number right out of her gorgeous ass.







so she chose to evict kevin , sending him to the jury, which was now six people, and america had the 7th vote, big surprise america voted for JORDAN to win! , she beat Natalie 5-2 and i couldnt be happier!! LOVES ITTT




onto some other TV news


today on Twitter , a friend of mine, mister Michael Dodes posted the most beautiful song i have ever heard, i will now post it for you, i feel it doesnt need an explanation as to why its just so beautiful



P.s This is TV news because Kim is a member of The Real Housewives of Atlanta

laying in bed

Typing this shit out on mah phone

First.. RIP Patrick Swayze. How terribly sad, but what a strong fight he made. My thoughts go out to his wife of more than 30 years, something you don't hear of too much anymore in Hollywood.

But onto some lighter news, its the FINALE night of BigBrother !! Who's excited?!? Mmmmmm shit I am! I have no clue who could win...especially since all 3 are going to finale night, its just crazy how they're doing it this year!!

I'm personally rooting for Jordan, though I've really come to like Kevin these past few weeks...I think he's hilarious and I think he's playing probably the best game! He's made almost zero enemies in the house, and knows how to make himself seem like less of a threat so easily. So props to him...he really should win based on the whole season.


But what can I say, I'm a sucker for dumb blondes with big boobies.

You know who I'm not a sucker for anymore? Dumb blondes with small boobies, AKA the brain dead piece of meat that is Rachel Zoe that's like totally bananas! Like gag me with a spoon PLEASE

That bitch is so annoying. And everytime her somewhat cute assitant frowns or squints his eyes, the wrinkles in his forhead instantley go into klingon mode. Sadness

Anywhoodles sorry for that entirely unneeded side rant, she really isn't even worth mentioning, so who watched the premier of 'the jay leno show' ? I did, and loved it! But I love me some Jay Leno, I have to say I'm prettttty disappointed with how conan has been doing as the new host of the tonight show... I actually like jimmy fallons show better now!! That's unthinkable.

But jay did awesome! I love his new set, he even has anew wave to his hair...he seems like a new guy after some much needed rest. Even though we all know jay is one of the hardest workin men in the biz

So who's new obsession is 'hoaders' ?! What a crazy ass show, those people I swear to god are insane. Its NUTS watching that show.... I can't take my eyes off of the continued train wrecks that are the hoaders.

For those of you who don't know, hoarders are people who collect and save just random stuff...some of them have 15 table lamps just chillen , some have boxes from floor to ceiling, some have rotting food all over the places, some even have toilet paper full of their own shit piling up on their bathroom floors...and that's not even 1/16th of the shit they collect... like I said, its impossible to take your eyes off of them...its sort of heartbreaking.

Well anyways I'm going to get out of bed now bye bye

Mistertom

VMA's

can we please talk about the MTV VMA's for a hot minute.

ok enough russel brand please, he is not that funny, or good to look at even though i'd hit it. numerous times.

secondly, i loved madonna's speech, and LOVED the michael jackson dance tribue, and then janet came on stage, yes i may seem like a cold hearted bitch, but thats when that performance went down hill for me, and fast.

to be honest, i dont really think it was that appropriate for her, on a personal level, to be performing something like that so soon, but the fact that she did it makes me respect her.

but for real, girl didnt even sing live, and was on stage for 2 mins , tops.

anyways, i'll just leave that one alone for now.

moving onto the sheer fuckery that is kanye west. . . i think he just gave chris brown his meal ticket back to stardom.

SERIOUSLY WHAT WAS HE THINKING?!?! poor taylor swift, i mean i hate the bitch, but she doesnt even deserve that!. that was just so down right rude of kanye west, and i have to say, im even a little surprised, even coming from him. if i was taylor swift i would have probably cut a bitch on stage , you just dont do that to someone.

lets see ..what else do i wanna talk about, well besides the fact that the whole evening was now extremely awkward feeling thanks to mr.west, i have to say, there were some hottt performances, thanks LARGELY to the WOMAN ! im a guy, a gay guy, but i love my woman! especially strong, fierce, powerful, independent woman, they dont need the MAN HOLDIN THEM DOWN.

you know what im sayin?

ok so i hated taylor swift's performance , seriously that bitch cant sing.

lovedddd lady gaga's performance even though her outfits off stage were entirely too distracting.

pinks performance was HAWT. even though i would NEVER attempt something like that!! BITCH IS CRAZY. made for some great emotion from pink though !

Beyonce's was just awesome! what can i say about sasha fierce that kanye west didnt already say?! no for real... shes our generations tina turner, and im so happy i got to see her perform live in front of my very eyes in july!.

i fast forwarded through most of the show...stopping only to see who won the like...5 awards they gave out. haha i swear they should just turn the whole damn thing into a concert, thats the only reason people watch!

i loved jay-z and alicia keys performance ! i have never heard that song before tonight,but i loved it, and its giving me second thought at checking out jay-z's new album.

and to cap off an already ridiculous night, lil mama decided it was ok for her to just come up on stage and like idk stand there and give jay-z some gangsta looks like she belonged? well jay-z gave it right back to her when he SHUNNED her from the after song group hug. she just stormed off stage lookin all sorts of ghettttto

Happy Birthday Donna!!

so tonight was my friend Angela's mom's birthday partty!! no need to mention how old she is, shes forever beautiful, and she has overcome some major challenges , obstacles, trials & tribulations, what ever you want to call them and she has pulled through, as i sit here and write this, listening to Adele in my headphones, i feel compelled to write about her.

this woman is magical, shes truly a beautiful human being, through and through and i feel privileged to know her. I've never known her to be anything other than a loving mother to her three beautiful daughters, all of whom I'm proud to call friends, and one of whom (Angela) I'm proud to call one of my best friends (i took her to prom twice hehe) shes amazing and its all thanks to her mother Donna.

tonight we celebrated her birthday and I'm so happy i was there to share it with her!, she was an absolute riot, and i was cracking up the WHOLE
night!! <3

MisterTom

it's time to talk movies

hey everyone!! sorry I've been MIA for the past few days, but lets be honest, who even reads this ? I'm sure a total of 0 people noticed i was missing ha!, and besides i had to do some research for my next entry which i decided would be about some fabulous movies I've seen lately! ! I'm going to TRY and keep it short, since Ive been informed that my entries tend to run a little long, i was like bitch please the title of my damn blog is mistertom's RANTS..i rant duh..

anywhoodles the first movie I'm going to talk about is a HILARIOUS dark comedy by John Waters(pink flamingo, the original hairspray ) it is called Serial Mom here's the poster for the movie :


if that doesn't give you an idea of what sort of ridiculous movie this is, then you are clueless. the movie focuses on Kathleen Turner's character Beverly Sutphin , who is clearly losing her mind!, i don't want to give away too much about this movie, because the less you know about it going in, the more you will love it, just trust me that its an outrageous, over the top, hilarious comedy and remember don't wear white after labor day

p.s check out this HILARIOUS picture i found that's a play on the poster... so damn funny
if that doesn't make you laugh you have no soul.


Up next I'm going to talk about two different independent films that i found to be quite amazing and brilliant

first up I'm going to talk about a movie starring one of my favorite actresses around Tilda Swinton.

the movie is called "Julia" check out the movie poster below :

the movie is about an Alcoholic fluzie played to the extreme by Tilda Swinton (who in my opinion NEEDS to get nominated for this movie, for many reasons which I'll talk about in a hot minute).

again , without giving away too much, I'll let you know that she goes to AA meetings, not by choice, and meets a rather interesting lady while shes there, who approaches her with the idea of kid napping her childing from her father ( the child's grandfather ) because of the abuse he endures under his hand, but its pretty clear from the beginning that this woman is deranged and really should not have her child back, we as the audience understand this, but Julia is clouded by her lust for money and power, and of course her judgment is shrouded in a haze of booze filled nights , nights she often forgets the next morning, as she lay next to a man she apparently had sex with as well ( probably just to get a ride home if for nothing else).

the movie leads us down some intense and often VERY real scenarios, the screenplay for this movie is phenomenal and made me believe almost everything i was watching.

now why should Tilda receive an award nomination(s) for this? because A) she is a fearless actress who seems to know no limits and B) because this movie is ALREADY out on DVD!, it played in only 4 theatres because of the money crunch the production faced, and received almost no word of mouth from the audiences, even though it has been praised at numerous award and film festivals over the past few months, so i feel a nomination for Tilda would really bring the sort of attention to this film that it deserves.

the last film I'm going to talk about has a title i cant even pronounce, but one of my favorite Actors around right now , Phillip Seymour Hoffman, good lord can this man act.

check out the poster :

i watched this movie last night, and i still cant really say i understand it completely, there are a lot and i mean A LOT of hidden meanings in this movie, it is full of symbolism , and it is full of some of the best acting work I've seen come out of the cinema for quite some time. i wasn't sure how i was going to feel about this movie ( i even had it for almost a month from netflix, just sitting at my house ) i eventually returned it without watching it, only to find it on Starz on Demand last night.

the movie is just over 2 hours long, running 2 hrs and 3 mins, and i was up till 3 am watching it...i was SO SO tired by the end , because of the late time, but that's how interesting this movie is, you just cant take your eyes off of it !! .

the basic plot for the movie follows a man over from what i gathered is a 40 year span, following him through a rough marriage at the beginning, all the way to a very emotional ending..

this is another one of those movies i cant give away too much, because the less you know before you go into seeing it, the richer the experience you'll enjoy.

its sort of like the movie "Doubt" in the sense that this is a movie that everyone will come out of thinking something totally different, but that's what i LOVE about this movie, it makes you think , and god forbid we THINK ! ha ha.

it is certainly not a movie for everyone, but i say give it a shot, take from it what your mind allows you too , its a beautiful , powerful film..


OK so i went on another RANT ha ha! go figure right??
well I'm off for the day to enjoy what nice weather we have left here in MN
