The role model; a person that is admired by young people and how they are trying to emulate. That’s more or less the definition of the term but to be completely honest; it’s all bullshit and the term shouldn’t be allowed to be used in that way, I don’t mean for the sake of the kid’s that admire them but also for the sake of the celebrities themselves.

Tuesday, December 28th, 2010Rising Starlets 2010
Sunday, November 28th, 2010Like every year; here is the annual list of the young stars in Hollywood who I think have been doing a good job at building their careers. So a combination of past current success, mixed with things coming up in the future. A lot of it is my gut telling me things about how I feel about it, so I am biased. I don’t expect anyone to agree with me regarding this list but you know what? I don’t care, it’s my list so I stand by it. Though I have to admit; I had a hard time coming up with ten names. A lot of teen stars failed to impress this year and there isn’t that much new blood coming at the moment; seems like there is a bit of a gap between generations at the moment. (more…)
Celebrity Obsession
Monday, September 27th, 2010Question: Am I too pre-occupied with the lives of celebrities? I write a blog about them so what do you think? I also have over 200,000 high quality celebrity pictures on my hard drive and a lot of HD videos. Seems obsessive? Maybe it is but I also see it as a hobby. Some people collect stamps, I collect things like that.
People can have an interest in celebrities and read a lot about them, save their pictures, it depends on how you deal with it to be honest. In my case I don’t think it’s really that much of a bad thing to be honest. As long as I keep my attitude respectful towards them I don’t see harm in it.
Now when I look around the internet I have to say that not everyone is that way. Not just talking about the celebrity bloggers who feel they can write anything they want, because they don’t know the celebrities anyway so what is the harm in writing crap about them? If a story turns out to be false why would we correct it (if they don’t, people like Miley feel the need to do it for them)? They’re human, that’s why but I’ve gone over that many times. (more…)
Blonde Showdown
Thursday, March 4th, 2010In the history of Hollywood there has been some sort of obsession with blondes. This one actress who has everyone’s admiration it seems. If no one has a clue what I’m talking about it’s probably best to mention Marylin Monroe by now, that should explain it all. Over the years there always have been actresses who are sort of the ranking blonde. Right now however I don’t think there is on. Ever since Scarlett Johansson decided to go for a darker hair color there is no ranking blonde actress. Yes there have been people trying to bleach their way into the blonde rankings but it’s just not the same. People like Lindsay Lohan simply aren’t known as blondes so they can never be the ranking blonde actress in Hollywood. So who is it going to be?
I think we have to look at the currently under age actors as to who will become the next one. People could go for people like Kristen Bell but however lovely she might be, if she hasn’t made it to that status by now, I don’t think she’s going to make it. I think there are currently three main candidates we can look at; Dakota Fanning, AnnaSophia Robb and Sofia Vassilieva. Except for their first names ending in a the main thing they have in common is that their hair has the required hair color. Seeing they’re still minors I’m not going to judge them on their vavavoom factor quite yet. Besides, they’re in Hollywood and this might sound a bit harsh but you don’t really see ugly people in Hollywood. (more…)
Rising Starlets 2009
Sunday, December 27th, 2009So I have this opinion on all sorts of lists that keep showing up around the internet. They are all pointless, who is best? That is something people usually make up for themselves, you can’t exactly be told who is best by some random person. That still is a personal opinion from that single person. Here I’m talking about all the blogs and sites that make random lists, usually not consulting any kind of vote though those are quite pointless as well. So what to do, those lists will keep showing up around the internet.
Simple enough solution, here is the annual list of rising starlets so now the 2009 edition. So young actresses and musicians in Hollywood who I feel have done the most improvement in their career rated by projects, popularity etc. Yes, it is full of my opinion so no one can tell me I’m wrong. Here we go. (more…)
