Lady Gaga has the rare day off and she is spending it shining a glass orb that she has. While most of us wear old rags to clean the house, she wears a nude leotard because that is how Mother Monster rolls. Looks like her fiance’ Taylor Kinney doesn’t mind. Especially since the only finger he is lifting is to touch his phone’s screen and take a photo. Hey it’s his day off too, he earned the right to be lazy.
When something horrible happens, your first thought, no matter what your faith is, is to pray. Each Sunday at 10p, TLC’s Answered Prayers tells the stories of people’s prayers who were answered in their most desperate time of need.
In tonight’s season premiere, it is a beautiful day in Henryville, Indiana, but the meteorologists are predicting a huge storm. The Gilles family start their day off normally and send their three kids to school and the husband goes to work. Then when he feels the storm is coming, he calls his wife and says let’s prepare for it. She thinks he is crazy because the sun is shining. She eventually gives in and picks up her kids from the school bus they were riding home on. When they get home, she grabs all the blankets in the house, the kids’ bicycle helmets and locks all 4 of them in the closet. Her husband comes home just as the E4 tornado comes barreling towards their house. The 5 of then huddle together as the tornado lifts their home and catapults them the distance of 3 football fields. When they are finally back on the ground they are scattered all over the place and the parents are injured. How will they find their three kids amongst all of the debris. Just when it seems it can’t get any worse, the sky darkens and another tornado comes their way. Will anyone rescue them before it is too late? All they have to go on in prayer, but is that enough?
Then in Florida a father mows the lawn on a lawnmower as his son rides bike near him. When the dad puts the lawnmower in reverse, he didn’t realize his 3 year old son got off the bike and it right behind him. Then he feels a bump and sees his son’s leg under the machine. He lifts it up off his boy and carries him to a neighbor who is a nurse. The father is devastated and can’t stop feeling guilty over what he did. The doctors tell him son will be OK, but they are not sure they can save his leg. Eventually they do, but his leg will never function like a normal one. After 4 years of pain and countless surgeries, 7 year old Jake tells his parents he wants his bad leg amputated. The father feels awful and now Jake’s parents have to decide if amputation is the right thing to do. The night before the surgery, his parents pray for a sign that they are making the right choice. As they are driving to the hospital, they get that sign. A sign that could only come from Gd. What it is, you will have to tune in to see.

David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson are back at work on their most famous roles, Mulder and Scully in The X-Files. Roles that are so famous, they are Lego versions of their characters. Sadly, they are only available to the stars. That could change if we start a campaign for them to become available for all of us fan. So Lego, make it happen because the truth is out there and we want our Lego version of Mulder and Scully!
Pixels is being destroyed by the critics and none more than MovieBob. He took to YouTube to post a 10 minute rant how much he despised the movie. He ripped it a new one, so much so when it was done Adam Sandler was sent back to a time when Arcades were cool.
Even though MovieBob detested the movie, I still want to see it. I don’t care what the critics say, I still like Adam Sandler films.
I honestly think if Judd Apatow or Paul Feig did the Pixels, then all of those critics would’ve thought the flick was the best movie of the year.
Christina Applegate is starring in her first big screen movie in years, so she should be happy with any press she is getting for Vacation. But it doesn’t sound like she is. Today, the actress Tweeted that she is sick of talking about Chris Hemosworth’s abs. I don’t know about you, but they are the only reason to go see that movie. So if that is what the press is fixated on, be happy. Would she rather they ask about her personal life?
When it comes to objectifying the actor, I think that he did that to himself the second he sold his soul to become People’s Sexiest Man Alive.
