Last week, Simon Cowell made a bad joke about Mel B’s wedding night, so she threw her drink in his face and walked off the America’s Got Talent set. Well, I guess she is still holding some resentment towards her boss because she stabbed him multiple times yesterday on the Variety show.
Before you think, why wasn’t his murder reported by all the press? That is because he is not dead nor did he shed any blood. So what happened? Mind reader Colin Cloud staged a 7-minute mind f*ck to solve the King of Mean’s murder. And you cannot solve a crime without one, so they staged one.
Now getting from point A to point B is beyond fascinating to watch. I came to see Cowell get stabbed, but stayed for the amazement of it all. Be prepared to be blown away. So much so, you are going to think he has to win it all! It would be a disgrace if he doesn’t bring home to the $1 million prize.
Todrick Hall has done it again! He has created another magical mashup that is so spectacular, it is hard to believe that it was not originally just one song. He has already done it for Disney movie songs, TV themes, the ’90s and artists like Nicki Minaj, Taylor Swift, Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Britney Spears and so many more. Now he is doing it for the 2000s and you will be downloading a lot of singles you forgot about like Shaggy’s It Wasn’t Me and Leona Lewis’ Bleeding Love.
Seriously, this guy has more talent in his little finger than most of today’s artists have in their whole bodies. Why isn’t he getting more recognition than just being in Taylor Swift’s music video for Look What You Made Me Do. Dare I say it, I think he is more talented than she is. I mean, look at all he did in this video, he picked the songs, mashed them up to be one tune that includes ballads and pop hits, sang the whole thing and shot four versions of himself singing in sync (not *NSYNC but their music was highlighted in it). How many other artists can do that? Very, very few.
There is so much sadness and anger going on in the world today, that we need to take a break from it all and find something happy to enjoy! Here is a mashup of Sesame Street dancing numbers throughout the decades and I dare you not to smile as you watch the video. Just like saying the title to REM’s Shiny Happy People three times, it is impossible not to turn your frown upside down. So do it! And if you are up for, then get up and dance like Gabe Kaplan, Terry Crews, Melissa McCarthy, Amy Poehler, Sofia Vergara, Usher, Elmo and the rest of the Sesame Street gang!
Last month, we found out that Sesame Street fired Steve Whitmire, who was the voice of Kermit the Frog since 1990, and we were all sad that a voice from our childhood was unceremoniously taken away from us.
Yesterday, the Muppets introduced his new voice. Even though Matt Vogel sounds like the amphibian we know, he is missing the joy that Whitmire brought to it. He sounded a like a frog in a pond full of lily pads and flies. While the new guy sounds like he is about to croak. And not as in the type of sound the character makes when Miss Piggy and him are alone!
