Believe Movie *Spoiler Alert*

The day after Christmas me and my best friend went to go see the Believe movie. I can honestly say it was great. In Justin Bieber's previous movie Never Say Never. It was all about the story of how he became famous. This movie is a little bit different. This is more of the story of his worldwide tour. All the drama with the media in the last year.

The interview that this almost the building  blocks for the movie was released for one of his "Film Fridays" just a couple weeks ago. The "Film Fridays" are when he released one of his songs from "Music Mondays" (which I already talked about when they started) when his fans got the song to number one on the itunes chart we got a video from the believe movie. Then after about the 8th week of the music Mondays he released 6 more songs and made all of the "Music Mondays" songs one album called "The Journals". When you buy the rest of the songs it also comes with a video diary from when he was in the Philippians and a trailer of the Believe movie. Then the next week is when the Believe movie came out.

The movie was truly very honest. I will honestly admit that I cried twice during the movie. One time it was talking about Avalanna. Avalanna had a rare form of cancer. She loved Justin. She had a fake wedding at her hospital with her card board cut out of him. The whole thing was posted on facebook page made for her. Somehow Justin found out about it and wanted to meet her while he was in New York. They hit off right away. They played board games together. She called him her husband. It was so cute. They started hanging out more and more. Her condition started getting worse. Then on the first night of the Believe tour is the day that she passed away. Justin was just devastated, he loved her so much. That night there wasn't a One Less Lonely Girl" picked from the crowd. It was a slideshow of Avalanna. Justin was crying that night when he was singing. Also in the movie when it was brought up. He again was crying. She was a big part of his life before the tour.

This movie also made me laugh. There were a lot of funny parts in it. You will just have to see it for your self to find out what they are. Another part of this movie I really like was that you got to see Justin in the studio. No, Not just him singing but writing the songs figuring out how he wants them to sound. Just the whole creation process is really cool.  If you are fan of him go see this movie. If you are a hater go see this movie. If you don't know who he is see "Never Say Never" then go see this movie. Point is go see this movie.

X Factor Finale

I have been so busy this last week. I have fallen behind on the "X Factor". So I spent all day yesterday catching up. Let me just say if you look back to my first post on the "X Factor" all of the people I liked have been eliminated. In the semi finals it was Jeff Gutt, Carlito Olivero, Alex & Sierra and Restless Road.

Jeff Gutt auditioned last season. I liked him then because a lot of the people that audition either want to be top 40 radio or country. Jeff Gutt is a rocker. Last season he didn't make it to the live shows unfortunately. I love his story and everyone loves his son. If you don't know his story he had a kid and then didn't get to see him that often because of his ex-wife. Now he is with him all time and he is just so cute.

Now to Carlito Olivero. Here is what bothers me about Carlito. I feel like  he  is not consistently good. In the beginning of the competition, he was just alright. Then during the live shows he was in bottom two, two weeks in a row. Then all of sudden once it got close to the end he was great. Not only that when he was in the bottom two he would always have the same speech. It was about how he didn't come from much and he just wanted to give back to his family and he is a fighter and he will keep fighting. He says it every time he was on camera it was annoying. I understand it's sad and you can tell your story once. You don't have to tell the same story every time you are camera.  

Then there is Restless Road. I love them. They are a country group. I am not even a fan of country music and they are just great. They all auditioned separately. But before the live shows when they were eliminating a bunch of people the judges decided to put these three together as a group. My favorite performance by them is when they sang Luke Bryan. 

Last but not least Alex and Sierra. I like them a lot I like there take on songs they always make their own. They are also dating which makes it cute. They were the winners of this years "X Factor" I love their relationship. Sierra always looks to Alex for strength during a song. It's adorable.You can just see the love when they perform. This is their final song. The thing that bothers me about them is that year they are really good. But I don't think you will see them after the X Factor. I know I will see the other semi finalists after the show.  They are all really good. Alex and Sierra are more of coffee shop singers. What if they break up? You can't have one with out the other.

Overall this year on X-factor was good. I loved most of the judges. There were a lot of great performers. I didn't really have one favorite I just loved everybody!

Duck Dynasty

I use to never watch "Duck Dynasty", my uncle would always rave about it. Then just this season my family got into it. We love it we watch every episode. We love how real there family is. My favorite episode is the one when John Luke (Willie's son) got his wisdom teeth out. It is seriously so funny. Here is a video of it If you haven't seen it yet. There whole family is so funny. The things that come out of their mouth, you are just like what who thinks like that.

If you haven't heard Phil from the show has been suspended. He has been suspended because he opened up about his opinion on gay people. A&E have always been big supporters of the LGBT community. They didn't want his opinions to reflect their network. Phil is very strong in his faith. I respect that. He knows his stuff about the bible and he is firm in his beliefs. A lot of the things he says he believes gets cut from the show to stop controversy. Well he had an interview with "GQ" and he opened up about what he can't say on TV. One of them being gay people. His quote straight from the interview says "It seems like, to me, a vagina - as a man - would be more desirable than a man's anus. That's just me. I'm just thinking: There's more there! She's got more to offer. I mean come on, dudes! You know what I'm saying? But hey, sin: It's not logical, my man. It's not just logical." Wow there is a lot there.

To me it seems like he is just stating what he believes. I'm not saying I agree with him. I'm just saying that it is his beliefs and I think it is not fair that he is being cut from the show for his beliefs. Not all of america is for gay rights. If they were we would have a law passed  by now. I understand that isn't what A&E believes either. But it's not like they fought over it they just straight up cut him. It's not like A&E told him no to say anything he believes. He was getting interviewed as his own person not from the show. "GQ" obviously came to interview him for a reason. They were interested in him not the company he is associated with.

In his religion being gay is a sin. But also in his religion everybody sins that is what perpetrates them from God. All sins are the same. No sin is worse than the other. It isn't like Phil came out and said he hated gay people he just said that it is a sin and what he believed about it. I think A&E are over reacting a little bit. I think they need to sit back and look at the whole situation then take care of it appropriately

Sharkeshia

Everyone I know is talking about Sharkeshia. Last week I just heard about the story from some friends. I obviously got the over dramatic version. I am going to attach the video but let me worn you that it is graphic. The reason there was a fight was over a boy.

I think that Sharkeshia is be being publicized for the wrong reasons. She beat the heck out of this girl over a boy and becomes an internet sensation for it. It just doesn't make any sense. Recently though I found out she went to jail for what she did. I think she made a couple mistakes. The first and obvious one is beating this girl up. The second one is filming it. Especially in this day and age things like this spread so quickly around the internet.  In the original version it starts out with the two girls talking but you can't hear what they are saying so it looks like all of sudden Sharkeshia just punches her in the face out of the blue. She didn't even punch her with her fist it was more of with her wrist. As if that wasn't enough Sharkeshia went even farther and started really punching her. Then she started kicking her. That is when her friends started jumping in. If  I was Sharkeshia's friend I would have ended it before it started. Listen to me if I was her friend it just doesn't seem likely. 

I feel bad for the girl that got beat up by Sharkeshia. I know I don't know the whole story of why Sharkeshia was mad at the girl in the first place. I do know that she didn't deserve anything she got. She was brutally attacked. I know that after the fight that one of her eye was swollen shut and her lip was all busted up. There is one thing I don't understand, why the girl didn’t start fighting Sharkeshia back. I mean she had the chance too.  There are a lot of answered questions to this story. But one thing for sure is what Sharkeisha did wasn't right.  She shouldn't be getting the attention she is getting. Like the video said people are acting like she won a televised boxing event. 

I hope that Sharkeshia learns her lesson in jail. I also hope that karma comes right back around. All my thoughts and prayers got to the other girl in her recovery. What happened isn't right. More people should be concerned about the other girl not Sharkeshia.


Dumbest Rumor Ever

So I was scrolling through my news feed on twitter. I stumbled upon the hashtag #RIPJustinBieber. There was a link so me being curious I clicked on the picture. The head line says "Justin Bieber Found Dead After Snorting Too Many Marijuanas". First of all you don't snort marijuana. Then the article basically goes to say that Justin died in his hotel room in Argentina by overdosing on marijuana. To overdose on Marijuana you would need to smoke 1,500 pounds in 15 minutes which impossible. In the article it says that he took 7 times what it takes to kill someone. 

This article is obviously not true. But they could have at least done their research. It wasn't that difficult to find out how much weed you need to consume to overdose. Justin could have been smoking weed in his hotel room. This entertainment page could have found out he was smoking marijuana but then extremely stretched the truth and now they just look stupid. Because he is obviously not dead. People think just because he isn’t posting picture or tweeting that he must be dead. Why can’t he just take a break from technology once and a while? Why does he always have to doing something on social media or people think he is dead. Thinking about it now it is kind of ridiculous. We aren’t constantly tweeting and posting. If we do we are annoying.  So why is it a necessity that celebrities have to.

I am so sick of people making stupid rumors about him dying. When he dies I think his management will be the first one to tell the world not internet. It is kind of sad we can't rely on the internet for things like this. If you have to try to find the story on multiple sites to know if it is really true. The internet should a source of information not away to spread rumors and lies about people. Especially people like celebrities who already have enough to worry about in their life. 

The thing about there always being rumors about Justin Bieber dying is that when he does actually die, nobody is going to believe it. They will just think it is just another rumor. I think it is going to terrible. I can't even imagine what it is going to be like. I know I will be numb for a while.

New Shows Coming In January

With the New Year comes New Shows. There are two in particular that I am looking forward too. One of them is the new season of "Pretty Little Liars" If you haven't been watching "Pretty Little Liars" yet I would start watching them on Netflix over Christmas break. Also I wouldn't continue reading there is going to be a spoiler. Now with last Halloween special it was left with a terrible cliff hanger. We now know for sure who A is. But Ally is still alive and has some connections with Ezra. Who is A. Finding out that Ezra is A is making me second guess everything in the whole series. I have started reading the books to see if there is anything that could lead me to connect Ezra somewhere else as being A. But so far no luck.  In this season we are trying to figure out why Ally is so scared of Ezra. What does Ezra have on Ally? Another question I have is, if Ally is still alive then who is buried in her grave? I have so many un-answered questions. That is the thing with this show, you watch it trying to find answers but the time the hour is up you are left with more questions then you had before and no answers. That is how they keep you watching. It will be interesting to see what goes on this season. If you can't wait till January and you wish that this show was on nonstop, there is a trailer for next season. I hope this show never ends. But if you are wondering when the next season starts it starts on January 7th at 8 pm on ABC Family. 


The next show I can't wait to start is "Teen Wolf". I have been watching "Teen Wolf" since the first season aired. There is one little problem though. I am behind on last season. I watched like 2 episodes of last season. When I was finally going to catch up we got a new DVR box so I lost everything. Even worse it's not on Netflix. I guess I will have to look out for a marathon on MTV. After looking up when the new season will start, I found some things out. One of the is that the producers of "Teen Wolf" split this season up and did 12 episodes over the summer and now the last 12 are going to start January 6th on MTV.

Frozen *spoiler alert*

I saw the movie Frozen over Thanksgiving. It was so freaking adorable. I must say that it wasn't what I expected. The first trailer I saw was this one it was with Olaf. He is the snowman and the reindeer is Hans. The story line of it is totally different. It is about two sisters who happen to be royalty. The oldest one, Elsa,  has the power to create ice and snow. When the girls were younger they were playing in the main hall and an accident occurred. The youngest sister, Anna, was struck with Elsa's ice. After that Anna has no memory of Elsa's power. So Anna thinks that her and her sister grew apart. Elsa accidentally turned the whole city in to ice and snow. The problem is that right now the city they were in it is summer. The story goes on about the sisters and how they try to bring summer back. 

Another thing I didn't expect from the movie was it was almost a musical. At first I wasn't so sure about how I felt about it. But by the end I was used to it and some of the songs were catchy. I feel like that at some parts of the movies they just added songs at random parts. One of the charters would be having a conversation and it would just turn into a song. 

Overall this movie was really good. This movie was good for children and adults. They also had some good puns in there with Olaf the Snowman. I think Olaf was one of the cutest parts of the movie. He is just so blunt and out there. He is also slightly awkward. My favorite thing he says is when he is singing a song about how he never has experienced summer. In the line of song he says "Winter is a good time to sit close and cuddle but put me in summer and I will be ...." he looks down at a puddle and says ".. a Happy Snowman!!!!" I love it you would totally expect him to say a puddle. 

If you haven't seen this movie I totally recommend it. It was so cute. It is one my favorite recent Disney movie. I feel like it had the perfect balance for the whole family. 


R.I.P. Paul Walker

After a great Thanksgiving and all of the black Friday shopping, everyone was thinking about going back to work the next day when something tragic happened on November 30th. That is when the news started to spread. The first place I saw the news that Paul Walker was dead was on tmz.com. I didn't know if it was real or not because there have been rumors about other celebrities dying. With the other celebrities in the end it just ended up being a rumor.

On Saturday night when I saw it on Tmz the page wouldn't load. This made me even more suspicious about it. Maybe this is all just a hoax, but as I looked more into it his Facebook page had something posted about it and so did Good Morning America. On his Facebook fan page on Saturday night at 9:11pm central time, this is what it said. "It is with a truly heavy heart that we must confirm that Paul Walker passed away today in a tragic car accident while attending a charity even for his organization "Reach Out Worldwide". He was a passenger in a friend's car, in which both lost their lives. We appreciate your patience as we too are stunned and saddened beyond belief by this news. Thank you for keeping his family and friends in your prayers during this very difficult time. We will do our best to keep you apprised on where to condolence. -#TeamPW"

Paul Walker has always been my favorite actor in all of the Fast and Furious movies. I remember watching the first one with my step-dad and ever since then we have watched all 7 of the movies. I think that it is so sad they he died at the age of 40. He left behind his longtime girlfriend and also his 15 year old daughter. It is so sad that he had to die at such a young age. I think it is awesome how is fans are putting mementos at the scene of the crash.

On CNN.com I was trying to see what is now going 0n with the investigation of it and the pages is just struggling to load. I saw on TMZ.com that there were rumors going around that Walker should have been able to escape the scene of the accident. Of course those rumors were not true. Another rumor going around is that Paul Walker's daughter, Meadow, was at the charity event. This rumor was also not true and was confirmed on his Facebook fan page. There is also a tribute video that was made to honor him.


This video brought tears to my eyes and I definitely recommend watching it. The video was made by the Fast and Furious Facebook page. The caption on it says from The Fast Family. I think his death is going to be a tough one to get over. He had a pretty big fan base. With two million followers on his Twitter page and 12.6 million on his Facebook fan page. He is going to be deeply missed. There also has been a break in production of the newest Fast & Furious film. We’ll have to see where the franchise goes from here, if anywhere.

Selena Gomez at Jingle Ball

Selena Gomez was in Los Angeles on December 6th for the KISS FM 2013 Jingle Ball. First of all she didn't look good at all. I found this picture of her on www.eonline.com.

Selena Gomez
She was singing one of her hit songs, the sound and video people were having technical difficulties. After getting sick of the technical difficulties at the end of her song she said "What the F***. It wasn't seen on the jumbo screen but it was heard on the mic. Even though I don't like Selena Gomez, I feel like before she wasn't like your average Disney channel star.  But her actions lately lead me to believe that she is. It is sad that we have a stereo type for Disney channel stars. Why do they all have to be train wrecks? Most of the older Disney starts are living their lives without doing drugs or cussing on stage or dressing inappropriately.

Anyway the technical difficulties proceeded through her song "Come and Get It". She didn't even finish the set before she walked off stage. I think she needs to take a breather. If you are frustrated that easily you need a break. It's not like the paparazzi was there and in her face. If that were the case I could understand a little more. But she is doing "what she loves"  and performing for fans. Not to compare her to her ex-boyfriend, but I am gonna do it anyway. When Justin Bieber was on his tour for the Believe tour, he was doing a show at the Apollo theater and they were having sound difficulties. So he just started playing his guitar and sang along with his fans without a mic. I feel like that was a great way to improvise. It was also something that not every fan can take away from a performance.

Point of my whole rant is that Selena made the whole situation worse by freaking out. She could of  kept calm and explained to her fans what happened. This just makes my dislike for her grow. I feel like that after Disney she is kind of ruining her image. I think the reason that Disney stars rebel so much is because they have so many rules and restrictions that they have to follow from Disney. Then there show is over.  They feel they are free to do whatever they want. Then they rebel and get out of control.
