Posted in: American Idol!!! WTF? Well not really!
Okay, jaw dropping results last night on idol, right? Nah! One of our guest writers (Melissa 'hope you feeling better') described idol the best. It's not a singing competition. It's just a popularity contest for the fans who ACTUALLY vote.
Take me for example, I watch the show religiously. My wife and I really enjoy watching AI every night it's on, but ask me if we vote. Come on, ask me. My answer would be, “NOPE.COM!”
But, I bet if you asked the 7 million teenage girls that think Scotty is a heartthrob their reply would be………..”yeah, I voted like 10 times last night!” Or, “OMG, Scotty is like so hot I voted for him until my fingers turned blue!”

ADELE! Rolling in the DEEP! (VIDEO)
I know, maybe I am a little late on the game, but dayummmm! Can this girl sing? Or, can this girl sing? If you don't have her single 'Rolling in the Deep' you need to download it asap (of course legally The Write Guyz does not condone any illegal sharing of music lol).
Here's the song if you haven't heard it before. I know Nina (guest writer) posted this vid on our entertainment page a few months ago. I should have taken the time to listen. DUMB.COM (looked it up).

The Voice!
No, not that voice, it's not God calling.
'The Voice' premiered Tuesday night, and lets just say, Chub is a fan!!!!
I know, I don't need to be a mind reader to know what everyone is thinking.........."another singing show!" Or, "they are copying American Idol." To both of those comments I say GOODDAY.COM. lol.

TWG On Sportz: Interview With The NFL Commissioner
Today on "The Write Guyz On Sportz", Husky Downs and Grip Johnson sit down with Blogg Cities NFL Commissioner, Rodney Godyell to discuss the current Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA), the lockout, bringing a team to Blogg City, and the over all future of the NFL.
Husky Downs
"Welcome Mr. Commissioner, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to come on our show."
Grip Johnson
"Yes, what he said, but I'd like to add that we want huck it, chuck it, football!"
The Commissioner
"I know that is what is on everybody's mind and while I am sensitive to your needs and the needs of those around the world - especially in Blogg City, I need everybody to understand that I, along with every NFL owner, am working..."
[Grip Johnson begins snoring loudly, which interrupts the Commissioner]
The Commissioner
"Is he okay?"
Husky Downs
"Yes, he has this sleep issue.. [Husky Downs hits Grip upside his head waking him up]...but if you knock some sense into him, he's good to go. Ain't that right Grip?"
[Startled, Grip jumps up and says...]
Grip Johnson
"I agree! I agree with everything!"
The Commissioner
"Wow, that was definitely an interesting experience. That was not snoring, that was an out of body experience."
Husky Downs
"I apologize for the delay Mr. Commissioner. The question of the year that everybody wants to know is, how optimistic are you that there will in fact be an NFL Season this year, and when do you see Blogg City getting an NFL team?"
The Commissioner
"The season will commence at the proper time, when all is completed. The people around the nation will be graced with football in due time and it is at that time, that they will enjoy the game they have grown to love. As a sign of my appreciation for the fans being patient, once the season commences, for the first home game mini-corn dogs are free. On that note, I apologize for having to be rude, but I've got a flight to catch, I'm supposed to meet up with the union to further discuss the labor agreement. As for Blogg City getting a team, that is currently being discussed. As everybody is well aware, Syller Shogun - you all know him as Mr. E. is the sole financial backer and while I can't speak on the details, it would appear a location for the stadium has not yet been secured; as such, there will continue to be further delays. Now, I've got to run - make sure everybody follows me on Twitter. I love that thing."
[Exits Commissioner Godyell]
Husky Downs
"Okay...that was an interesting, yet short lived interview with the Commissioner. Not really sure what he said, but as it stands I was able to decipher that the NFL season beginning on schedule is in fact not imminent. I also heard him say he wishes The Write Guyz would relocate so Mr. E. could build the stadium where we currently work and live on Writeous Island. Does that pretty much sum it up Big Grip?"
Grip Johnson
"I heard free, mini and corn dogs. Not really sure anything else matters."
Husky Downs
"Riiiiiight. And on that note folks, thank you for tuning in to 'The Write Guyz On Sportz', it's your boy Husky Downs saying to all the football fans out there - hang in there, it'll happen. Blogg City may not have a football team yet, but at least we've got The Blogg City Bashers who are in the playoffs."
Grip Johnson
"And it's your boy Big Grip Johnson saying, hey Husky, the Bashers lost yesterday. Way to be on top of it host."
Husky Downs
"Yeah I know they did Grip...but it's a long series. I am not worried, I know Obie Ryant and company will bounce back.At this time, I like many of the fans in Blogg City and around the nation are more concerned with when Blogg City will get an NFL team and whether or not the lockout will affect the regular season this year."
[A loud snore echoes through the studio as Grip Johnson has once again fallen asleep]

Rise of the Planet of the Apes (VIDEO) Check out the Ape!
I've never been a die hard fan of the "Planet of the Apes" franchise, but I must admit that I do enjoy watching the films. I guess what stops me from becoming a true die hard fan is the concept of the movie itself, it just freaks me out! HA!
Here are some facts on the movie:
According to Yahoo! the apes will be all CGI for the new film, which is directed by relative unknown Rupert Wyatt (he previously did the British prison-break movie "The Escapist"). The effects work was done by director Peter Jackson's Weta Digital, which handled his "Lord of the Rings" trilogy and "King Kong," so they've got some experience making monkeys seem human. But they've topped themselves with this footage, although we do have to remind everyone that it's all of five seconds long.

The "Write" Stories - Episode #1
[Inside the TWG headquarters Natasha is filing her nails, while across from her DOS is working on the computer]
“Tash, can you put away the flask, the stench stings the nostrils” says DOS
“I’m painting my nails. Turn your fan on; it’ll blow the smell away from you. I mean, you have no problem turning your fan on and pointing it MY WAY when you fart.” says Natasha.
“HA! HA! Touché’” says DOS
[Grip enters the room]
“Yo! Yo! Yo! Any of you seen my gun? I’ve checked everywhere and I just can’t find it.” says Grip.
Scratching his head in confusion, DOS turns around and says, “Grip, isn’t it somewhat of an oxymoron that your name is Grip, yet, you seem to have lost your gun?”
“Look nerd, if you want to get technical, I can show you EXACTLY why they call me Grip.” says Grip angrily.
“Okay, okay, [chuckling] I wasn’t saying, I was just saying. Ha!” says DOS.
“Grip, honey, I think I saw Jimmy with it downstairs. He was going to work on it and add something for you. So, umm…yeah, just go down.” says, Natasha.
“Hey now! You’re straight to the point, no dinner, movie - nothing. HA! HA!” says Grip.
“HA! Cute, Grip real cute. You know, that’s not the first time I laughed at a Johnson and if we're talking about you Grip, I’m certain it won’t be the last.” says Natasha with a smirk on her face.
[Laughing hysterically]
"Son of a bitch, not again! I think I just pee’d my pants.” says DOS.
[Meanwhile, downstairs Jimmy Kicks is working on Grip Johnson’s gun, while talking to Husky Downs who is throwing tennis balls against the wall as his Huskies, Sasha, and Khloe chase after them.]
“You know Jimmy, I know you’ve got the whole military background and all, but looking at you, you don’t strike me as that type.” says Husky Downs.
“There! Got it! I finally finished adding this accelerometer to Grip’s gun for line, sight, movement, and auto detection. Oh, I’m sorry Husk, umm…you don’t see me as the type huh? Well, you figure, I’ve always been really good with my hands and with ideas so, I guess I would go out on a limb and say there really isn’t a type for that. At least, I don’t think so.” says Jimmy Kicks.
“I know bro; I may just be talking out my ass…as usual. Ha! Either way, you got skills; I’m glad you’re here and not still over there.” says Husky Downs.
[The sound of Grip Johnson walking down the metal stairs echoes through the laboratory.]
“Uh-oh, sounds like SOMEONE is coming for their gun.” says Husky Downs.
“Watch this Husk!” says Jimmie Kicks as he picks up the gun, takes off the safety lock and points it in the direction of the stairway, just before Grip gets to the bottom of the stairs and enters the laboratory.
“Okay Jimmy, where the hell is my…[Jimmy Kicks pulls the trigger sending a metallic football through the air at about 100mph in Grip’s direction]…what the?!?” says Grip as the football goes through a nearby painting on the wall.
Angrily Grip says, “Dude, that’s not a fucking toy! You could have killed someone asshole!”
“Relax Mr. Sensitive, I didn’t hit you did I? If I wanted to, you know I would have. [Jimmy Chuckles] Besides, you act like it would hurt you anyways. How do you and your brother say in Spanish, “Gordo?” Is that right? HA!” Says Jimmy Kicks.
[Grip walks by Husky Downs as he nears Jimmy Kicks and his gun. He, glances at Husky Downs, says “What’s up” and then proceeds to grab his gun]
“So…[long pause as Grip slowly examines his gun]…what did you do to it?” says Grip.
“Your scope is now improved and will automatically lock onto your target for you with enhanced speed per shot. How about them apples ‘eh?” says Jimmy brushing his shoulders off with an arrogant smirk.
“Cool. Thanks.” Says Grip in a low baritone voice.
“And there you have it folks, the man of many words. Ha!” says Jimmy.
[Husky Downs chuckles, looks down at his cell phone and sees a text from Chub Johnson. It reads “I came to the bank to deposit a check for Myra, but I left it in my office. Can you bring it please?”]
Myra and Chub have been together for 5 years and when he’s not working on the magazine, or hanging out at the office with the rest of The Write Guyz, Chub is at home doing the marriage thing.
[Husky Downs whistles in the direction of his dogs, he gets up, grabs his video game controllers, and swiftly throws them around his neck. Sasha and Khloe obediently stand at his side, tongues out, and tennis balls in each of their mouth’s waiting for him to move.]
“I’m outro. Gotta help out the Chubster.” says Husky Downs.
“Well, hold up, I’ll roll with you.” says Jimmy. “Grip, if you have any issues with it let me know. Sorry I took it without your permission, but you shouldn’t be leaving it lying around like that in the first place. Ha! See ya!”
[Husky Downs and Jimmy Kicks exit the “TWG” garage in a black utility truck, 20 inch alloy rims and plates that read, “TWG4ME”. Husky Downs is driving, while Jimmy Kicks rolls down the window and sticks his head out.
“Damn I love this City!” says Jimmy Kicks.
The sun is beginning to set and the two of them are now going over the bridge which connects Industrial Gorge and Blog City.]
The “TWG” building, which serves as the headquarters for The Write Guyz and their magazine company, is in Blog City; however, it sits on the other side of the Harbor and across the Roddington Bridge, on a small island. Industrial Gorge is what the people of Blog City know this island as, while those who actually work on the island call it “The Ink Blot”. On the island there is a small market, laundry mat, a couple fast food restaurants and a soap manufacturing plant. While there is a small park, it’s nothing to write home about; however, on sunny days, you will see Husky Downs walking his dogs as well as some of the factory workers eating lunch on the park benches. The scenic view is actually quiet beautiful, as the benches are facing Blog City. On a clear day, one could see the sun light bouncing off the water and onto the high rise buildings; while the sun at dusk sets between the “Mystery Magazine” towers. The locals find it breathtaking.
Due to the recent increase in crime in Blog City, the residents of Industrial Gorge go home when they leave work, which is unfortunate as the view from the park at night, it’s been said, is spectacular. The architecture in Blog City is unique as “Mr. E”, CEO for Mystery Magazine, along with The Write Guyz and their generous financial contributions, single handedly hired the top architects from around the world to re-build the city 10 years ago. To be noted is the fact that while coming together for one common cause, both magazines are competitors in Blog City. One thing is apparent to the people of Blog City, Mr. E’s disdain for The Write Guyz and their publication. Each magazine has their own niche’; however, recent polls have shown that the people prefer The Write Guyz and their magazine, over Mystery Magazine. Where Mystery Magazine focuses on business, politics and overall, the upper class individual; The Write Guyz focus is on that which the every day, middle-class to lower-class person can relate to. They do not discriminate, nor do they seclude anyone. If it’s a good read, they will write it and publish it. Essentially, they are what the people of Blog City call – “an everyday folk’s magazine”.
[Chub Johnson is sitting in a waiting area in the bank playing with his cell phone; suddenly, an explosion is heard throughout the bank. People are running out the door, ducking for cover, women and children are screaming and crying. Not phased by this, Chub leans forward and curiously, he looks in the direction of the cloud of smoke, which draws near from the back of the bank towards the front. A woman on the floor holding her child tight looks at Chub with a concerned look on her face]
“Sir, get down!” says the woman frantically. “What if it’s someone trying to rob the bank?”
“Ma-am, with all due respect, I wish a mutha’ would.” says Chub Johnson with confidence and swagger.
It would appear as though Chub would get his wish; emerging from the cloud of smoke walking towards Chub was…

Jim Carey's New Haircut!
I'm pretty sure there are a lot of older people out there that are bold enough to dress like they are still in their 20's, but I don't think I personally would. But, that's just me.

All I can say is that I hope the $$$ Hef gave her is worth it. She was making big bucks on DWTS and she would probably have that gig for as long as the show runs. Now, she is unemployed.
No matter though -- Something tells me she will be making the big bucks no matter what she does.

ABDC Premiere! (VIDEO)
I hate to say it, but ABDC is off to the wackest start ever! I'm not sure if it's just the show, or if it's the crews they have on this season. Heck maybe it's the judges. I don't know what it is, but I've been a fan since ABDC premiered a few years ago so it pains me to say it........if it doesn't shape up it will get canceled.
My Views On American Idol
American Idol never ceases to amaze me (and sometimes not in a good way either). I've been watching this show off and on since season 2. I missed a few seasons and then started to really watch it again during season 8 (when I became a huge Adam Lambert fan haha). Here is what I have learned over the past seasons:
Last night, a fan favorite, Pia, was voted off in a "shocking" results show. Personally, I really wasn't that shocked and here is why. Yeah, she can sing better than anyone else on that show, but she is kind of a bland performer. At least I thought so. I never really remembered her performances after the show. That and maybe she was "too good" to be on the show. When you pull of the singing she does, people tend to think "oh, she'll be okay. Someone will vote for her." And then nobody does. That's how she went home. People got lazy and thought she was safe. Don't ever think your favorite is safe. That's always how they get sent home.
Now, fans are pitching a fit because they don't think it's fair. Maybe she did deserve to be there. I kind of thought Paul was going home (I don't see how he has made it this far..) or Stefano. I feel bad for that guy because you could see how he felt he should have went home. You could see the confusion and guilt on his face.
I see another guy winning this season. Personally, I see Scotty (the teenage country singer) winning the whole thing. I can't stand country music but the girls think he's cute and so they vote for him. So, there is my prediction. If you're upset about your favorite not winning, let me say something. Most winners aren't very successful. The only two that really made it are Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood. Adam Lambert didn't win and look at all of the success he is getting.
So, fans, stop taking the show so seriously. It's really more of a joke than anything else now with the change in judges. I'm disappointed in what they have brought to the table. According to them, everyone is "so good" when some of them aren't. We need someone to grow a pair and gain some of Simon's brutal honesty. Tell a contestant they suck when they do. The worst thing the judges have said to these guys is "you're a little pitchy."
Just my opinions haha. What do you think about this season of American Idol? Who do you think is going to win.
- There is always going to be some kind of controversy.
- Fans will start "boycotting" the show after their favorite gets booted off.
- The right person never really wins.

American Idol! Who Was Sent Home? Check it! (VIDEO)
So, is everyone done picking their jaws up off the floor already? WTF, is the least I have to say after last night’s American Idol. Again, WTF? Lol.
Never in a million years would I have guessed that last night we would be saying goodbye to one of the most talented contestants on this year’s Idol, Pia Toscano.
Quick breakdown for anyone who didn’t watch the show last night:
Bottom 3:
Jacob, Stefano, and Pia.
Do I think the bottom 3 was justified?
To a certain degree, yes, Jacob’s stupid comment about America during Wednesday’s AI was simply unnecessary. I knew that he would be in the bottom 3 because of it. Plus, I know he is a great singer, but he is starting to irritate me when he is on stage. Stefano is also a great singer, but not better than most of the other contestants. I knew he would be in the bottom three. Pia, was her performance great? Not so much, but did she deserve to be in the bottom 3 because of it? No, she does not.
How on earth does America vote to keep James Durbin, Haley, or Stefano over Pia? I just don’t understand it. But, on the bright side, now that Pia has been eliminated she can start her career without being stuck in an American Idol contract (we all know what Kelly Clarkson went through).
On a side note; I love how all three judges were completely outraged that Pia was sent home. But, I kept thinking to myself, I wonder how Stefano and Jacob feel. I mean think about it. If all three judges are commenting on how the decision is completely wrong…..that America made a mistake. How crappy would you feel if you were allowed to stay while Pia was sent home?

'Jersey Shore' Spin off, Who will be the Cast?
Okay, so did Chub call it? Or, did Chub call it? It was only a matter of time before MTV split up the cast of ‘Jersey Shore’ to create spin offs.
As of Thursday MTV officially has released that 2 new shows will be created involving Snooki, JWOW, and Pauly D (obviously the best members of the cast). The 2 shows haven’t been given an official name as of yet, but descriptions of what the shows will entail have been released.
Spin off #1 (Snooki and JWOW)
For the Snooki and JWoww show, MTV said "viewers will get to see how they deal with life and love when the vacation is over in this 12-episode series. The locale may be different, but the friendship is sure to remain the same."
Spin off #2 (Pauly D)
Pauly D's show would focus on his rising DJ career.
"Pauly D's jet-setting and often hilarious life on the road as one of the country's most in-demand DJs. Aiming to become one of the world's most successful and recognized names in music, viewers will get to see Pauly D chase his dream with the help of the best friends he grew up with in Rhode Island by his side," MTV described in a release on Thursday.
My opinion: Pauly D’s show sound pretty dope. It’s going to be fun times seeing him interact with people outside of the Jersey house. The Snooki and JWOW show I’ll give a chance, just because Snooki is hilarious.
In regards to ‘Jersey Shore,’ I do think MTV will bring them back for one more season, if they are lucky. But, honestly I think the show has gone through its life cycle already. It’s time to put the dog down. The show (especially towards the end) was the same old drama with the same old people. Really, it just became predictable. That’s my take on it.
Anyone excited about the spin offs? I know I am.

Thick Thursday! (Nicki Minaj)
Born December 8, 1984, Nicki Minaj has taken the hip hop world by storm as it seems like she is featured on just about every other song these days.
In an interview with Vibe Minaj discussed her sexual image stating:
"When I grew up I saw females doing certain things, and I thought I had to do that exactly. The female rappers of my day spoke about sex a lot... and I thought that to have the success they got, I would have to represent the same thing. When in fact I didn’t have to represent the same thing."
All I know is Nicki has got one large bu-dunk-a-dunk and while some argue that she is attractive, at least from one point of view - Nicki Minaj has got it going on.
