Making Menudo Coming to MTV

Menudo Ricky MartinI cannot help but laugh when I look at the name of this show. It just cracks me up. I know Menudo was a big hit back in the day, but are we this desperate for reality television or for new music that we have to remake Menudo?

What’s next….?

Making The Jets (they look for brother/sister family teams to sing)
Making Britney Spears (they find girls who can lip synch that eventually go crazy and shave their heads and binge on Cheetos…)
Making Foxy Brown (well, we all know how that story ends)
Making The Village People (this one might even be amusing)

Kevin Federline Speaks

KFedIf you’ve been wondering what KFed has to say about life, his kids, and the chances that he might babysit for your kids one day, now is your chance. Kevin has a message and he wants us all to hear what he has to say. Well this isn’t technically Kevin Federline, but just watching this video you wouldn’t be able to tell. This is last nights opening for the first show of Saturday Night Lives new season. The man behind the KFed mask, is the comedic genius, Andy Samberg.

I will admit that I haven’t watched SNL since Adam Sandler was on, but if I had one reason to watch, Samberg would be it. Every skit I have seen him in is hilarious and this is certainly no exception. Continue reading →

Elliott Yamin Christmas CD Coming out October 14

Elliott YaminElliott Yamin has become a pretty popular guy since he was booted from American Idol a few seasons ago. It’s funny how that works. The winner, Taylor Hicks, is known for being the worst selling Idol winner of all time, yet the contestants that lost to him couldn’t be doing better.

While Yamin is still technically an independent artist, his first CD had the highest debut of an album by an independent artist ever. His single, “Wait for You” has also been the fourth most played song of the year. Yamin is set to release his second CD on October 14. This particular CD is featured by NBC’s Sounds of the Season.

NBC chooses individual artists to put their own spin on classic holiday songs. Yamin is one of three artists that were chosen. The CDs go on sale exclusively at Target on the 14 for $6.99.

America’s Funniest Home Videos is Still on Television?

Bob SagetI saw news today that the premiere of the new season of America’s Funniest Home Videos would be on ABC at 7PM EST. This marks the 18th season that the show has been on the air and makes it one of the longest running reality style programs in existence. Is it just me or did everyone else think this show was cancelled about 12 years ago? Seriously, the last time I watched this I was waiting to hit puberty and Bob Sagat was the host. Wow. I think I just made myself feel older with that one…

This year the show will be offering something new to winners. Apparently, there will be one show winner and one online winner that get to choose a magical vacation to one of ten destinations including Spain, France, Italy, Costa Rica, and other amazing spots.

Bob Barker is a Racist Sexist Pig!?

Bob BarkerWhen I think Bob Barker, I think Plinko and the scene were he beats the hell out of Adam Sandler in Happy Gilmore. I usually don’t think about a sexist, racist kind of guy. However, someone seems to think that Bob Barker isn’t just sunshine and rainbows. He’s a jerk.

On October 4, a lawsuit was filed against Barker for wrongful termination and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The lawsuit was filed by Deborah Curling, a CBS employee who claims that Barker is guilty of sexual harassment and racial discrimination, which made the work environment incredibly hostile.

CelebTV is reporting that Curling and other employees (according to Curling) were “exposed to sexual and mental harassment, abuse, and racial discrimination. Defendant Barker created an atmosphere of terror on the show, as a result of which any employee who complained about the working environment or contradicted Barker was fired.”
