Why Usher Is A Superstar

BY: GURU JAY

  
For over a decade, Usher was on top. Right now he is a superstar. When you create great music nothing else matters. Usher’s greatness is unquestionable.
Without question, LinkedIn and Monster.com couldn’t have charted him a better career path. Musicians can live comfortably off of one hit wonders. That’s why Usher can take breaks. The artist has produced a dozen number 1’s.
If he’s not moving mountains, he’s making love in this club. The superstar cites Marvin Gaye as a major influence. Their styles are similar and so are their lyrics. Trading Places sounds a lot like Marvin. Do you know the words to Sexual Healingand Let’s Get It On?
Have you been to any of Usher’s concerts? Groupies obsess over him because he is personable and seductive. Usher previously stated he works out before every performance. I wonder if his physical fitness attracts honeys.

When you’re high up on everybody’s VIP list, how do you keep your ear to the ground? Although he’s a multimillionaire, Usher isn’t out of touch. I believe it’s because he realizes that he is fortunate. Plus, like Maxwell, he’s never sang a song with all his might!
How many times have his albums went platinum? Who else has won 8 Grammys?
What is more, in the noisy entertainment world Usher is mellow.

Astronomy teaches you they’re a trillion stars. However, Hollywood teaches you a superstar is a rare sighting. Luckily, Usher was born into the industry. In fact, his mother managed his career for a while when he was younger.
You see the constellations must align accordingly. You must wait patiently for everything to connect. Ironically, Nice & Slow accelerated the celeb’s career. 

Usher is a superstar because he decided to shepherd the flock instead of following the herd.

Alternative Rock Audio Beats By Dre Carlos Santana Celebs Chris Martin Coldplay Dave Matthews Band DeflateGate European Bands Fandoms groupies Guru Jay Jennifer Lawrence Music Robin Thicke Singer Vevo

What Is Coldplay Without Chris Martin?

BY: GURU JAY


Can you imagine your ears without music? Have you experienced the creative sounds of Carlos Santana? Who are your favorite musicians? Do you like Chris Martin?

What is Coldplay without Chris Martin? Ever since dating Jennifer Lawrence, Martin’s stature has outgrown the band. Why do hot blondes melt over a music star? What defies logic, chemistry can explain. Don’t minimize music’s strong effect.

What if Coldplay changed the name to the Chris Martin Band like Dave Matthews Band? Perhaps, more celebrities like Martin should deflate their egos. What if Tom Brady allegedly deflated his arrogance instead of footballs?
Credit the Chris Martin’s public relations team, because he hardly gets any bad press.
Martin, the oldest of five siblings, naturally became a bandleader in 1996. Where were you in ‘96 when that happened? Did you dialup your Internet to the groundbreaking static? Do you remember, “You’ve got mail?”
How long was it before Chris became idolized? In ‘96 Google, Twitter, and Facebook weren’t in existence. Without question Bieber, Gaga, and Swift colossally benefited from the Internet when their careers launched.  

We’re living in an Information Age, where numbers matter. Although Coldplay tweets to an astounding 15.4 million followers, Chris Martin doesn’t have a verified account. Is there a disconnect? Or is the brotherhood very tight?
I believe Chris Martin’s band is the 9th best European band of all time. Plus, no music group comes close to their accomplishments in the Alternative Rock genre. 
Your ears love listening to Beats By Dre sponsored songs. Have you noticed Beats By Dre Audio equipment in almost every Vevo video? I’m sure more than half my audience has seen ColdplayVevo because you appreciate high quality and superior content.

Like Robin Thicke, Martin is lost without you. The celeb understands fans allow his journey to continue.

Actress Amanda Seyfried Celebs Chloe movie entertainers filmography Glitz and Glamor Guru Jay Hollywood Stars Jennifer Lawrence Jennifer's Body Lovelace Millennial Movies Scarlett Johansson Ted 2 cast

What Is Amanda Seyfried’s Secret?

BY: GURU JAY

There are many actresses but few movie stars. Amanda Seyfried’s big name lights up theater screenings around the world. Moreover, the Millennial movie star illuminates multiple generations.
For the love of entertainment, I hope she becomes Superwoman. You can’t honestly compare her to Scarlett Johansson or Jennifer Lawrence without factoring Captain America and Hunger Games into your equation. To her credit, you must recognize her enormous contributions.
Red Riding Hood, Jennifer’s Body, and Chloe come to mind when discussing Amanda’s exceptional filmography. She’s young enough to experience incredible breakthroughs. Don’t you think the celebrity doesn’t desire hundreds of additional stalkers? Anyway, her showings are fantastic. From Big Loveto Lovelace, what’s not to love about Amanda Seyfried?

Seyfried played a cute pot smoking lawyer in Ted 2all too well. The doll-faced girl displays a great sense of humor. Amazingly, she can laugh at her sexy curves while in front of a mirror.
Applaud the actress for choosing controversial roles throughout her illustrious career. As a Millennial, Amanda is living out the elusive American Dream. However, show business was made for this hot Hollywood starlet to sparkle.
They say, “there’s no business like show business.” Moreover, there’s no actress like Amanda Seyfried. I believe I’m watching a ballerina dance. Amanda keeps acting as if she’s a starving artist. She craves excellence.
What director doesn’t want to direct Amanda? I never seen a performer more devoted to performance arts. She does the necessary duties that some actors feel are beneath them. That’s why the celeb can work with everybody. Plus, the jaw dropping beauty commands extra attention.

She should consider teaching. Don’t you want to learn her secret? What is her special recipe? Amanda Seyfried’s secret formula lies in her makeup- not the external kind for your face, but what’s internal- within your heart.

Actress Amy Schumer comedy entertainers Funny Ghostbusters Guru Jay Hollywood Stars Identity Thief Jimmy Fallon Jimmy Kimmel Melissa McCarthy Mike and Molly Movies Spy Standup Comics Tracy Morgan

Why Melissa McCarthy Ain’t Afraid of No Ghost

BY: GURU JAY

If you want to deliver a timely joke, don’t bother with UPS, Fed EX, and certainly the post office. Melissa McCarthy delivers the complete package ahead of schedule. The Ghostbusters lead actress answers the epic question: who you gonna call?
As Mike’s better half, she made you laugh on TV. Do you catch Mike and Molly reruns? Plus, she stole Jason Bateman’s credit in Identity Thief. Are you getting my drift?
Prepare to lose your monopoly game against Melissa McCarthy. She gives McCarthyism a new meaning. You see I like her professionalism. The comedic actor doesn’t waste time or talent. What is more, the comedian paved the way for future entertainers.
Doesn’t she have a strong influence on Amy Schumer? People enjoy seeing Molly shine because Mel’s down-to-earth. Although some let fame go to their noggins, not this gal. After watching numerous interviews, you’ll discover she’s a sweetie.

Imagine her starring opposite Tracy Morgan. Talk about a movie selling itself.
Now, I’m not saying the Spy star doesn’t have a wild side. There is a reason Hollywood movers and shakers knock on her dressing room door. Did you know she is a fashion queen?
The best celebrities build brands as well as careers. Moreover, Melissa McCarthy works with the best. That’s why she is a great comedian.
Never underestimate the former gymnast’s flexibility. When you have a chance, check out the comic’s Saturday Night Live scenes for proof. The celeb’s Improv skills are top notch.
Let’s petition a Melissa McCarthy late show. Jimmy Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon should have perfect competition. 
Genuine laughter is harder to produce than crude oil. Right now, Jeff Foxworthy and Larry the Cable Guy’s tickets cost more than a barrel of oil. This is a sign of the times.
In summary, Melissa McCarthy brings it on home. She isn’t scared to speak her mind. And, fans appreciate her honesty.

Why Tracy Morgan Is Stronger

BY: GURU JAY

Tracy Morgan’s unfortunate car accident reminds you to cherish your loved ones. Come to grips with reality and concentrate on good times. Remember the importance of family and friends because as my father always says: “You’re here today, and gone today.” You aren’t promised tomorrow or anything for that matter.
I’ve watched this man Tracy Morgan mature through the years. He’s still off the wall but never out the loop. He’s cozy in his own skin. Talk about a comedian with timeless material.
The celebrity returns to Saturday Night Livethis season better than ever. My mother instilled in me: “What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger.” I believe Tracy Morgan is stronger as a comedian since the calamity. Now, he has a message more potent than painkillers Vicodin and Morphine combined. If laughter makes the best medicine, comedians make the best pharmacists.

Unfortunately, Tracy lost a near and dear friend in the tragic crash. He saw his friend’s funeral on YouTube because the celeb was in a coma during the burial. Thankfully, Morgan’s wife and young daughter weren’t there inside the vehicle.
I won’t make this a sad story.
Morgan gets paid to make you laugh. His funny bone extends an extra 3 inches. Also, Tracy knows a few things about hustling.
The Bed-Stuy Brooklyn boy grew up in a housing unit right across the street from Jay Z. Plus, he played Hustle Man on the Martinsitcom before his Saturday Night Livetenure. And don’t forget his major contributions to a popular TV show called 30 Rock.
Like Chris Tucker, Tracy Morgan is an amusing character with unique selling points. You recognize his voice in an instant. If you’ve got the blues, watch Tracy Morgan’s movies.
The celeb stays positive. And he doesn’t dwell in negativity. The standup comedian is a standup guy.

American Hustle Celebs Christian Bale Entertainment Exodus: Gods and Kings Famous Guru Jay Hollywood Knight of Cups Method Actors Movies The Dark Knight The Fighter The Machinist Top 5 Movie Stars

Why Christian Bale Is A Top 5 Actor

BY: GURU JAY

In Hollywood, it only takes 1 movie to create 10,000 jobs. What is more, 1 actor can affect the whole entertainment world. Am I being a bit dramatic?
Although I am channeling soap operas, this is relevant. Christian Bale is a topnotch celebrity. He is one in a million.
I believe Bale is the best method actor of Generation X. Who else literally transforms? Like a Mighty Morphin Power Ranger, Christian morphs into characters.
American Hustle and The Machinist
For art’s sake, Christian Bale dramatically changed his body by gaining excessive fat for American Hustle, and losing extreme weight for The Machinist. Movie buffs must admire the celeb’s dedication to his craft. This shows he challenges his limitations more than any director or producer possibly can. Like Scarface’s song, he “pushes it to the limit.”
And that’s why the world is his.


Should Bale have won Best Actor Oscar for American Hustle? I’m on the fence, because the entire cast was perfect. And, I don’t believe an Academy Award totally defines a performer. Plus, we haven’t seen his best yet.
We’ve seen his worst- Terminator Salvation. I remember waking up in the theater shortly before the credits started rolling. Still, this showing doesn’t discount his overall career achievements.  
Top 5 Actor
I saw The Dark Knight in Imax right before my first day of class. It was a great time seeing Christian Bale and Heath Ledger go toe-to-toe as Batman versus the Joker. Isn’t it amazing how comic books come alive?
You can tell that Bale bled, sweated, and cried for this movie. The fine art of filmmaking is intricate. That’s why you need dozens of people involved in the editing process.

Would the glorious actor make a great director? Christian has it in him due to his meticulous nature. I consider him a top 5 actor, because he will go the extra distance. Without question, there are only a handful of movie stars playing in his league.

Moving Forward Like Sylvester Stallone

BY: GURU JAY

  
People love reading success stories and watching inspirational movies. Moreover, a great celebrity motivates fans. From Rocky and Rambo to the Expendables and beyond, movie star Sylvester Stallone succeeds because of his desire to achieve greatness. What would happen if more celebrities followed Stallone’s blueprint and aimed to be exceptional models instead of being targeted photo ops?
When you reach a roadblock or come to a dead-end, right then you must figure out how to move forward. First, my advice to you is to take a few steps back, so you see how far you’ve come already. Secondly, realize sometimes that there isn’t a right or wrong answer. Finally, prepare to face tough decisions.

Sylvester Stallone understands “when the going gets tough, the tough gets going.” But what happens when the tough gets tougher and you’re stranded on Gilligan’s Island? This time you’re at the crossroads- the intersection of your life. I believe you should possess a steadfast mindset. Remember your mentality reflects your reality.
In practically every Sylvester Stallone movie, he works philosophical components into the story. I could write a 10-page piece about motivational speeches from Rocky alone. The genius of Stallone is that all his characters have shortcomings- nobody’s perfect. However, the celeb supplements his flaws with sheer willpower.

In other words, don’t go down without a fight. Find something great inside you and move forward like Sylvester Stallone. I recommend rereading 33 Motivational Quotes, Song Lyrics, and Movie Lines. You could spend 6 hours digesting this information.
Moving forward entails setbacks and false starts. Although life is full of sprints, it mostly consists of marathons. The landscape of Hollywood is both soft and rough. If you want to jump over the hurdles, it’s better to jog or walk because of those soft spots and rough patches.
