Have you seen the footage of Michael Jackson’s last rehearsal for his London show? Two days before dieing, he was on stage moving and dancing way more than Britney has in her entire Circus tour.
Here it is:
Sure he looks like Jack Skelington from The Nightmare Before Christmas but so what.

There where will be no Transformers and Enrique Iglesias this week because last night, I saw the new Transformers movie, Revenge of the Fallen, and I’ve got a few things to say about it.
I have to say that overall I really enjoyed the movie. Its the perfect Summer blockbuster with over-the-top action, a never-ending torrent of explosions, amazing special effects and stunning visual images and settings. On the bad side, the plot and story line are forgettable, the dialogue is laughable and the cliches are as endless as the explosions.
I can deal with those negatives because they are also a staple of the typical Summer flick. What I can’t deal with is how lame Michale Bay made the Transformers themselves. With the exception of a few of the robots, such as Optimus Prime, Ironside, Star Scream and, to a lesser degree, Megatron, most of the robots were given ridiculously Disneyesque characterizations that were absolutely painful to watch. I’m not going to go into specifics here because I don’t want to influence anyone who hasn’t seen it yet. If you have seen the movie you know which characters I’m talking about.
Would I recommend this movie? Yes. As I said, it’s a fun, Summer flick and nobody goes into a Michale Bay movie expecting Shakespeare. However, if for some bizar reason, you can only see one Summer blockbuster this year and you haven’t already done so – go see Star Trek.

Nothing sells over-priced purses like a hot corpse
No (thank god)! Supposedly, it’s just her latest ad for Louis Vuitton.

There were a lot of things this past week that got my goat but rather than getting even, I’m getting Mean Spirited. Won’t you join me?
Sorry Mark Sanford, it’s going to take more than Michael Jackson dieing for me to forget about you.
You’ve probably heard by now that South Carolina’s Republican Governor, Mark Sanford has admitted to cheating on his wife. In fact, he ditched his wife and kids on Father’s Day to spend time wife his mistress. I don’t know about you but these political sex scandals don’t shock or faze me anymore, which is a sad statement. What does get my goat are the dirt bags that campaign and get elected for their strong “traditional family values”. Sanford is no different. He is one of those hypocrites that speaks out against gay marriage because it will destroy the sanctity and institution of marriage.
In the interest of fairness, I’d like to introduce some new legislation to protect the sanctity and institution of marriage. Here it is: Anyone caught cheating on their spouse should have their marriages ruled void and be forbidden the right or freedom to ever marry again.

There will be no Enrique Iglesias and The Transformers post today. I couldn’t get any of the Transformers to pose with Enrique because they are all on their way to see the new Transformers movie, Revenge of the Fallen, which opens today.
Here’s the gang as they wait for Jet Fire to transform and give them a ride to the theater.
"TRANSFORM AND ROLL OUT TO THE MOVIES"!!!!!
