Carrie Prejean and Michael Phelps Dating "Casually", Grandma Confirms

Miss California Carrie Prejean is indeed dating bemedalled tanker Michael Phelps. This report was confirmed by Carrie's grandmother herself Jeanette Coppolla to Radar Online. Coppolla informed that "Carrie and Michael have been out to baseball games and lunch... He always calls her when he is in town and they go out.” When asked about Michael Phelp's "Casanova" reputation, Carrie's grandmother did not mince words that her granddaughter is fully aware of that and she's just taking their dates in a stride: "Carrie knows that he has dated a lot of girls but she enjoys going out with him and isn't serious about being in a relationship with him... He's a nice guy and she likes him."

When Carrie Prejean's granny was asked to comment about the Miss USA controversy that her grandchild is involved in a spat against blogger Perez Hilton, Jeanette Coppolla was just surprised that "there were too many gays out there". Jeannette wryly said that: "I don't know why that gay guy Perez was even judging a contest with a bunch of girls. That doesn't make any sense. He should be judging a Chippendale's contest". Uh-oh looks like granny will be next in line to be lashed out by Perez Hilton in his blog! To read the full interview of Jeanette Coppola, visit Radar Online website here and here.

American Idol Predictions April 22 - Who Will Be Voted Off in American Idol Disco Week?

After the performance night comes our American Idol predictions of who will be voted off/eliminated on April 22 (4/22/09). American Idol Disco Week Performance Night has just proven what the Top 7 finalists have in store for us. A few performances were memorable like Kris Allen's and Adam Lambert's. The others were just verging on average and lackluster. Who do you think will land on the Bottom 3 of American Idol Disco Week?

American Idol Live Blogging Results Here

In the Dial Idol predictions, they gathered that Allison Iraheta, Kris Allen and Matt Giraud got the lowest number of votes among the American Idol Top 7 finalists. Based on their data, Dial Idol presented that the two people who will be booted out/kicked off in American Idol Disco Week will be Allison and Kris. Essentially, Dial Idol predicted that none of them appears to be safe for Disco Week. Based on performance, the worst of the lot were Lil Rounds, Anoop Desai and Matt Giraud. Most people believe that Lil Rounds and Matt Giraud should be both be sent home on April 22. But, it seems in the Dial Idol predictions - Lil Rounds seemed to get the most number of voted tonight. Did the campaign of the Vote for the Worst (VFTW) pay off to make their bet stay? Let's find out later on if who will be the unlucky two who will be saying goodbye to the American Idol Season 8 Top 5! I will still be live blogging so just check this site for the latest American Idol updates!

Matt Giraud April 21 "Staying Alive" - American Idol Giraud 4-21 Video

After being saved last week, Matt Giraud tries to redeem himself by singing a Bee Gees original "Staying Alive" as his American Idol April 21 (4/21) Disco Performance. Randy obviously did not like the song choice or arrangement at all, but he praised Matt's singing prowess. Kara thinks Matt brought Disco back, while Paula was happy they made Matt stay last week. Simon was not happy with Matt this week as he did not like the performance and it was not original while it came across as a "desperate" performance to hold him in the competition.

Below is Matt Giraud April 21 "Staying Alive" performance:

Staying Alive Lyrics
by The Bee Gees


Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk,
I'm a woman's man, no time to talk.
Music loud and women warm.
I've been kicked around since I was born.
And now it's all right, it's O.K.
And you may look the other way.
We can try to understand
The New York Times' effect on man.
Whether you're a brother
Or whether you're a mother,
You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Feel the city breakin'
And ev'rybody shakin'
And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha,
Stayin' alive.
Stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha,
Stayin' alive.
Well now, I get low and I get high
And if I can't get either I really try.
Got the wings of heaven on my shoes
I'm a dancin' man and I just can't lose.
You know it's all right, it's O.K.
I'll live to see another day.
We can try to understand
The New York Times' effect on man.
Whether you're a brother
Or whether you're a mother,
You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Feel the city breakin'
And ev'rybody shakin'
And we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha,
Stayin' alive.
Stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha,
Stayin' alive.
Life goin' nowhere.
Somebody help me.
Somebody help me, yeah.

Anoop Desai April 21 "Dim All the Lights" - American Idol Anoop Desai 04-21 Video

Anoop Desai wrapped up the American Idol April 21 (4/21) Disco Night with Donna Summer's "Dim All the Lights". Randy thought the performance was a bit rough -- but it was nice and it could be a song you could hear on the radio. Paula stated that Anoop looked fantastic in his new look, but Simon lashed out that the performance was "mediocre at best -- a worst performance by a mile". Ouch!

Here's Anoop Desai's 4/21/09 performance "Dim All the Lights":

 

Dim All the Lights Lyrics
by Donna Summer


Dim all the lights sweet darling
cause tonight it's all the way
turn up the old Victrola
gonna dance the night away

Love just don't come easy
no it seldom does
when you find the perfect love
let it fill you up

Dim all the lights sweet darling
cause tonight it's all the way, hey baby
turn up the old Victrola
gonna dance the night away

Love just don't come easy
no it seldom does
when you find the perfect love
let it fill you up

Dim all the light sweet honey
cause tonight it's you and me
no need to worry darlin'
cause it's for eternity

Love don't come easy
this you know I understand
I want to be your woman
if you'll be my man
let yourself go freely and I'll
show you things that you've dreamed of
don't think that your dreaming
we've found the perfect love
and I'm like a cup
so fill me up

Dim all the lights sweet darlin'
cause the night is on the way, oh baby
turn up the old Victrola
gonna dance the night away

Do what you want
you can use me all up
take me bottom to top
don't leave even one drop
No, no, no
Do it tonight
you know the moments are right
turn my brown body white
come on, dim all the lights

Dim all the lights sweet darlin'
cause the night is on the way, hey baby
turn up the old Victrola
gonna dance the night away, hey baby
dim all the lights sweet darlin'
dim all the lights sweet honey...

If I Can't Have You Lyrics

by Yvonne Elliman

Don't know why
I'm survivin' every lonely day
When there's got to be no chance for me
My life would end
And it doesn't matter how I cry
My tears, so far, are a waste of time
If I turn away
Am I strong enough to see it through?
Go crazy is what I will do

If I can't have you
I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you...uh-huh, oh
If I can't have you
I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you...uh-hoh

Can't let go and it doesn't matter how I try
I gave it all so easily to you my love
To dreams that never will come true
Am I strong enough to see it through?
Go crazy is what I will do

If I can't have you
I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you...uh-huh, oh
If I can't have you
I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you...uh-hoh

If I can't have you
I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you...uh-huh, oh
If I can't have you
I don't want nobody, baby
If I can't have you...uh-hoh

Oh! If I can't have you...

September Lyrics
by Earth Wind and Fire


Do you remember the 21st night of september?
Love was changing the minds of pretenders
While chasing the clouds away

Our hearts were ringing
In the key that our souls were singing.
As we danced in the night,
Remember how the stars stole the night away

Ba de ya - say do you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in september
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day

My thoughts are with you
Holding hands with your heart to see you
Only blue talk and love,
Remember how we knew love was here to stay

Now december found the love that we shared in september.
Only blue talk and love,
Remember the true love we share today

Ba de ya - say do you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in september
Ba de ya - never was a cloudy day

Ba de ya - say do you remember
Ba de ya - dancing in september
Ba de ya - golden dreams were shiny days

Wow, that was good and looks like Kris Allen won't be Bottom 3 tomorrow!

Kris Allen "She Works Hard for the Money" video:

 

She Works Hard For the Money Lyrics
by Donna Summer

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

Onetta there in the corner stand
and wonders where she is and
it's strange to her
some people seem to have everything

Nine a.m. on the hour hand
and she's waiting for the bell
and she's looking real pretty
just wait for her clientele

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

Twenty five years have
come and gone
and she' seen a lot of tears
of the ones who come in
they really seem to need her there

It's a sacrifice working day to day
for little money just tips for pay
But it's worth it all
just to hear them say that they care

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

She already knows
she's seen her bad times
she already knows
these are the good times

She'll never sell out
she never will
not for a dollar bill
she works hard

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

She works hard for the money
so hard for it honey
she works hard for the money
so you better treat her right

Lil Rounds April 21 "I'm Every Woman" - American Idol Lil Rounds 4-21 Video

Lil Rounds sang a Chaka Khan original "I'm Every Woman" American Idol April 21 (4/21/09) Performance. Kara says Lil is every woman other than herself. Paula says Lil still did not hit the boiling point. Simon though Lil Rounds was so sad and said that it is a copycat performance! Wasn't good at all!

Lil Rounds "I'm EveryWoman" April 21 Performance video:

 

I'm Every Woman Lyrics
by Chaka Khan

Im every woman, its all in me
Anything you want done, baby
Ill do it naturally
Im every woman, its all in me
I can read your thoughts right now
Every one from a to z

I can cast a spell
With secrets you cant tell
Mix a special brew
Put fire inside of you
But anytime you feel
Danger or fear
Instantly I will appear, cause

Chorus

I can sense your needs
Like rain on to the seeds
I can make a rhyme
Of confusion in your mind
And when it comes down
To some good old fashioned love
Thats what Ive got plenty of, cause

Chorus

I aint braggin cause Im the one
You just ask me ooh and it shall be done
And dont bother to compare
cause Ive got it
Ive got it, Ive got it, yeah

Im every woman (repeat and fade)

Kim Kardashian is Not Plus-Sized?

Kim Kardashian has recently exhibited her exasperation over the clothing company Forever 21. Kim debunked the company's promotional article that featured her face, their plus-sized dresses and a statement that ran “for a curvier girl that loves fashion.” Take note, the Forever 21 did not indicate Kim Kardashian is plus-sized and I don't know where her reaction was coming from.

The photo above was taken April 18 when Kim Kardashian was vacationing with her family in Mexico. I see nothing wrong with her curves but there's also nothing wrong too by being tagged as a “curvier girl who loves fashion” to promote Forever 21 dresses for plus-sized women. Kim stated in her blog that she's offended:

I am a huge fan of Forever 21 and I'm very happy they have expanded their line to include a plus-size range, but I am not in that size category and this article makes it sound like I am! I am a curvy girl and I love my curves, but curvy and plus-sized are two very different things. I work really hard to maintain my curves while staying slim and healthy, so to be classed as a "fuller-figured woman" of extra large proportions is a little offensive.

For the record, I am a size 2, not 2XL.

Kim just don't overreact. It appears you're just not too confident about your figure. See the Forever 21 promo article below and you be the judge if there's something offensive in there.

American Idol Disco Night 4/21/2009 - Who Will Reign Supreme?

After Matt Giraud was saved by the judges, the American Idol disco week is bound to emit tension among the among the American Idol Top 7 because two of them is due to be booted off. So there wouldn't be any Top 6 because next week you'll only see American Idol Top 5 finalists. Who will be the two unfortunate finalists who will be axed? American Idol predictions suggest that Matt Giraud, Anoop Desai or Lil Rounds will be in jeopardy if they still don't come up with a spectacular performance!

Definitely, the American Idol April 21 disco theme would suit well with Adam Lambert's repertoire. What fireworks would he come up with tonight?Adam Lambert has the pipes to do some Bee Gees hits. At this point, every contestant's song choice would be enough to help them stay in competition. Just stay tuned at this blog for more American Idol updates and I will still be live blogging about the latest happenings and American Idol 4/21/09 song spoilers.

Update: Anoop Desai is going to sing a Donna Summer original "Dim All the Lights"

Miss California Carrie Prejean Defends Her Stance Against Gay Marriage

Beleaguered Miss USA 2009 first runner up Miss California Carrie Prejean defended her opinion in the question and answer portion that cost her to lose the crown in the Miss USA 2009 beauty pageant. In in an interview with Billy Bush for "The Billy Bush Show", Carrie said that "My sister is a second lieutenant in the Air Force and she is a gay rights activist… She supports gay people, she supports gay marriage. My beliefs have nothing to do with my sister or my mom, or whatever."

Miss Calfornia Carrie Prejean is now faced with numerous criticisms when she answered "We live in a land you can choose same-sex marriage and opposite marriage. In my country, in my family, I believe a marriage should be between a man and a woman.” This was in reference to her answer in the judge's (celebrity blogger Perez Hilton) question about the legalization of gay marriage in the United States. With all the criticisms and the boos she got during the pageant night, Miss California thought that: "It is a very touchy subject and he (Perez Hilton) is a homosexual and I see where he was coming from and I see the audience would've wanted me to be more politically correct," Carrie insisted. "But I was raised in a way that you can never compromise your beliefs and your opinions for anything."

 

In "The Billy Bush Show", Carrie Prejean admitted that her answer eventually cost her to lose the Miss USA 2009 crown - "It did cost me my crown. I wouldn't have had it any other way. I said what I feel... I stated an opinion that was true to myself and that's all I can do." Even her "gay activist" sister was not offended by Carrie's answer, according to her, "My sister is not gay... she said, 'Sis, I'm not offended by anything that you said. We have two different opinions and I love you because of it. I love you because you stood up for what was right, and it's not a matter of being gay or not gay, it's a matter of you competing for Miss USA and getting a question and answering it to the best of your ability." Also Miss California Carrie Prejean did not confirm nor deny that she formerly dated Olympic swimming superstar Michael Phelps “He is a great man… Wouldn't you like to know, Billy Bush? We can talk about that a different day." All we can say is good luck to you Carrie and enjoy yourself being lambasted in Perez Hilton's blog.

Rubina Ali - Dad Sells "Slumdog Millionaire" Child Star for £200,000

Rubina Ali the nine year old girl who played the young Latika in the Oscar Award winning flick Slumdog Millionaire is up for sale for the price of £200,000 ($296,000)! This was the news initiated by the News of the World UK website. Rubina's father Rafiq Qureshi could no longer take the squalor in India's slums that he put his daughter for adoption in exchange for that paltry sum of money. In an interview, Rafiq insisted that "I have to consider what's best for me, my family and Rubina's future." Even Rubina Ali's uncle Mohiuddin is involved in this illegal deal as he commanded this ballooned amount because "The child is special now. This is NOT an ordinary child. This is an Oscar child!"

Reactions to this news caught people in disbelief of how Rubina Ali's father can stomach to hawk his young daughter like she was some kind of commodity. A Middle Eastern family had already expressed their interest of adopting Rubina Ali. Poverty in India is unquestionable but do they really need to sell her while they can ask help to attain what's enough for them? Anyway, please read the in-depth news in the News of the World UK website.
