The Twelve Days of Christmas Remix

Posted by Lady Mel On Tuesday, December 22, 2009 1 comments

2009 was a very big year for pretty much anything from scandals, the inauguration of this country's first African-American president to the death of the King of Pop and the recently deceased Hollywood actress Brittany Murphy. So as I was planning on Christmas content for this blog, I decided what an unique way to celebrate the holidays and close a year of mayhem by remixing "The Twelve Days of Christmas" my way. It goes a little something like this:

On the second day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me

On the third day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Three dumb Kardashian sisters,

Tech Diva: What Is Twitter Good For?

Posted by Lady Mel On Monday, December 21, 2009 0 comments

I have been using Twitter on and off for the past year I believe. Many online users tweet about their daily lives in real time communication for the sake of digital contact with the digital world. I sometimes do, but since most of my friends are on Facebook, I do not have the luxury of tweeting each day to friends and family. I use Facebook instead to reach out to my larger audience. On Twitter, I follow industry news, career specialists, and "Hollywood" celebrities to get the latest scoop on finding jobs, career advice, and understanding the seemingly complex celebrity life in cyber space.


But what really, really bothers me is that for some Twitter obsessed celebrities, the only way to communicate to their fans is for their fans to pay them $$$. According to an article I recently read entitled "Want Kim Kardashian To Tweet You? It Will Cost $10,000?", reality-TV star and socialite Kim Kardshian collaborates with in-steam advertising company Ad.ly and through this collaboration, demands $10,000 per tweet. Unfortunately, she is not the only celebrity listed on the company's website. Check it out for yourself.

How nonsensical and pointless can someone get?!  It only goes to show that many celebrities are willing to do almost anything for money and fame these days. That is why I come to hate the Kardashians quite profoundly since Khloe Kardashian got married this past summer after nine days of engagement. They are just greedy, attention-whore douchebags.

I know that celebrities are marketing brands and  the security blankets for many advertising and entertainment companies. Hence why despite Tiger Wood's infidelity scandal on the news, the man virtually owns golf and sports marketing as a whole. I know that social media sites have been used by average Americans and small businesses alike to market their own products and sell their brands to the outside world. We are stilling living in a capitalist, opportunist age even amidst a global recession.

But when you thought celebrities desired to get closer to their fans online because they are so busy running their careers, you have to pay them a certain compensation in order for them to stay in the Hollywood spotlight. Sometimes, I wait for particular celebrities to tweet me back after I tweeted them on their pages and now I know the truth. Therefore, what use does Twitter have for celebrities besides money?

Hollywood's New Fake Couple

Posted by Lady Mel On Sunday, October 4, 2009 0 comments

I was quite busy with personal matters yesterday, so I did not get the chance to write any posts. So lets get back with the program! I have "the ugly truth" on the most recent celebrity gossip around. You know the things you wished did not come from David Letterman's big mouth. Let's start with the show:

When I first heard the news about two weeks ago, I was speechless. Remind you, I still am. Khloe and her Lakers hubby Lamar Odom were only dating for a month before somehow Lamar popped the question. I, like with many entertainment journalists and enthusiasts believed that Khloe was jealous that Kourthey was getting all this not much needed attention for his sudden pregnancy that Khloe had to top that off with a million- dollar wedding. Trust me, I have seen enough Khloe and Kourthey, Take Miami and Meet the Kardashians episodes to realize that these three sisters are competitive with one another.

Plus, judging by the body language in the pre-marriage photos between Lamar and Khloe, it does not seem like Lamar or Khloe was ready to get marry. This is just a publicity stunt because at the end Khloe received millions of dollars from tabloids like Life and Style Magazine that took pictures of her wedding day. Now Kim is back with Reggie Bush. Why do I feel Kim will outshine her sisters with a double shotgun wedding and a pregnancy announcement soon? Kim, you are a shrewd business woman.
