Who Wins? Justin Bieber Vs. Selena Gomez

BY: GURU JAY

You must look at the glass half-empty and half-full. In other words, the pros need the cons and the Beliebers need the Biebs. So, why expect Selenators to standby while Justin dates Gomez’s archrival Ariana Grande?

I believe Bieber and Grande make a more perfect union. In the long run, Grande and Gomez will likely pass up Justin financially and in popularity. You see Grande churns out hits like butter. And Selena can fall back on acting.
Does the name Jennifer Lopez click? I don’t proclaim soothsaying superpowers. All I offer you are opinions and predictions on this subject. 

Justin Bieber could prove everyone wrong and make several smashing hits in the future. Frankly, I’m tired of everybody riding Justin hard, when it’s not his fault. Can you picture the spotlight shining on you at age 14?
Think about all the stupid stuff teenagers do. So, on the one hand, I say give Bieber a break. On the other hand, I say where is Justin’s number 1 hit record?
Here’s what happened. His managers accelerated his follower count. You saw the same thing happen with Meghan Trainor. Trust me, you don’t want instant fame because like John Lennon so elegantly sang, “Instant karma’s gonna get you.”
If you are an aspiring entertainer or celebrity, don’t buy their bullshit. You’ll hear them claim, “I can get you 100 million views.” Here’s my advice. If you can get famous in a day, you can get destroyed in a day.
Take your time and grow a true fan base. Yes, social media is an awesome and useful tool, but getting better at your talent is more important. Plus, you need to improve your skills before it’s too late.

Justin Bieber is truly talented. However, his financiers built his brand too big and too quickly. Watch what happens to One Direction. They are in a similar predicament.
In ten years, I have Selena Gomez beating Justin Bieber in a landslide.

A list action Actors B list Birdman Celebs Cuba Gooding Entertainment Face/Off Gone in 60 Seconds Guru Jay Hollywood Men of Honor Movies National Treasure Nicky Barnes Nicolas Cage radio

Nicolas Cage, Cuba Gooding, Jr., and the B+ List

BY: GURU JAY
What is the B+ list? Are you familiar with the A and B lists? If an actor is on the B+ list, it means they score A’s and B’s.
Nicolas Cage

Nicolas Cage is the best actor on the B+ list. Moreover, Gone in 60 Seconds, Face/Off, and National Treasure are my favorite Nicolas Cage movies. Bangkok Dangerousis another spectacular Nicolas Cage film.
It is no secret Nicolas faced financial issues. But that doesn’t discount his brilliance. While Wesley Snipes went away for tax trouble, nobody ever says Snipes isn’t a fantastic movie star because of it.
What is more, Nicolas Cage reached what appeared unreachable. At one time, his name was bigger than any other in Hollywood. So, what happened?
If you want to protect your money, you must live beneath your means. Unfortunately, it’s trying for celebs to turn down extravagant mansions, yachts, and things. Hollywood is a glamorous place where everybody’s rich and/or high. Sometimes it’s best to learn the hard way. You have to lose some things, to win something valuable.
Who remembers when Cage was on top? There was a time Tom Cruise praised Nicolas. Don’t close the book on Cage just yet. He can make a comeback like Birdman Michael Keaton.
Cuba Gooding, Jr.

Cuba Gooding, Jr. is also a top thespian on the B+ list. His Jerry Maguire days are long gone. But his portrayal of Nicky Barnes in American Gangster refocused attention on Cuba’s phenomenal acting.
Have you seen Men of Honor, Radio, and Gifted Hands? The illuminating movie star can play both perspectives of the hospital room. It runs in his blood.
Did you know Gooding is one of Hollywood’s most prestigious names? Cuba’s father has been in show business for over 50 years. Therefore, little Havana learned how to entertain at an early age.
Cuba Gooding, Jr. embraces challenges. When you look into his eyes, you see a fearless tiger ready to fight. Plus, the Fighting Temptation (pun intended) preserves and showcases his strengths in every movie.

action Actors Cameron Diaz Celebs Entertainment exism Guru Jay Halle Berry Hollywood Latinas Michelle Rodriguez vs. Eva Mendes Movies romantic comedy Sandra Bullock sex appeal show business theatre

Who Is the Best? Michelle Rodriguez Vs. Eva Mendes

BY: GURU JAY

  
Michelle Rodriguez
You won’t find another action movie star like Michelle Rodriguez. She is a mixture of Pam Grier and Angelina Jolie. Have you seen Foxy Brown and Lara Croft: Tomb Raider?
The movie business demands the most from actresses. Michelle Rodriguez has proven she is worth her weight in gold. That’s why Rodriguez receives the first call when studio executives are looking for a Latina to put in their pictures.
Did you know the San Antonio native also has Puerto Rican and Dominican Republican roots? The gorgeous actress can compete with everybody in any category. Like Sandra Bullock, Cameron Diaz, and Halle Berry, Michelle gets more beautiful with age.
I like how she keeps a low profile. Fortunately, Rodriguez isn’t high maintenance. But, she enjoys taking rejuvenating walks on the beach.

Is it too much to ask for more Michelle Rodriguez movies? She is clearly one of the best actresses. Furthermore, I believe her fan base is an untapped goldmine.
You know the movie industry has an agenda in place. Sometimes a star is burned-out because Hollywood doesn’t like divergence. Still if you’re attractive and talented enough, you’ll get some opportunities.
The good thing about this business is you can make it in some facet. You see Michelle Rodriguez made it because she worked hard, and didn’t give up despite struggling at first. A caterpillar must fight before she becomes a butterfly.
Like butterflies, Michelle Rodriguez is one of the world’s loveliest creatures. Doesn’t Rodriguez have the prettiest brown eyes on this green earth? Although I haven’t met her in person, I know she’s a sight for sore eyes. What is more, she hasn’t reached her peak potential yet.
Eva Mendes

Eva Mendes paid her dues in movies such as Exit Wounds, Training Day, and Once Upon a Time in Mexico. Have you seen the Women, Girl in Progress, or Hitch? Do you think Hollywood exploited Eva’s beauty?
Should Hollywood conceal the delectable actor’s sex appeal? Can we not pretend that sexism isn’t a major problem in the movie industry? And can we remember this issue isn’t exclusive to entertainment?  
People admire Eva Mendes because she found how to succeed and beat the odds. While I don’t endorse gambling, I would take a chance on Eva for the simple fact she’s one of a kind. If I were playing Poker, I would make Eva my good luck charm.
Life is a lot like Black Jack. When you’re 21 it’s amazing. When you’re busted, it’s the dealer’s fault.
Eva learned how to play with the hand dealt to her. She patiently waited, only to discover the dealer dealt a cold deck. Even though the cards were stacked against the actress, Mendes continues playing the game she loves.
I enjoy watching Michelle Rodriguez and Eva Mendes in movies. I’ve followed their careers and watched the celebrities mature into sturdy brands. If Michelle is made out of Iron, then Mendes is real steel.
I believe Mendes is a better supporting actress than Rodriguez. However, in my opinion Michelle is the best overall actor. What are your favorite Rodriguez and Mendes movies? In your opinion, who is the best?

Actors agents arts careers Celebrities Celebrity entertainers Guru Jay Hollywood Julliard Kerry Washington managers Movies Nicole Beharie performers Scandal Sleepy Hollow talent theatre TV shows

Is Nicole Beharie the Next Kerry Washington?

BY: GURU JAY

I watch Sleepy Hollow occasionally mainly because I’ve got crush on Nicole Beharie. If Nicole doesn’t renew her contract, then the show wouldn’t last another episode. Did you know Nicole Beharie went to Julliard?
She’s highly educated and accomplished in and out of Hollywood. That’s why I know she can be the next Kerry Washington. Beharie recently turned 30, and she’s getting sexier year after year.
Hopefully, the fine actress doesn’t let her ego enlarge. The best policy is humility. Careers are ruined because actors think they’re irreplaceable. Give Beharie the benefit of doubt since she isn’t boastful.
In the next 3 years I expect Nikki to start filming mega budget movies. Why can’t she star as the lead sometimes? You see show business is about making connections and networking. Have faith in Nicole because she has developed fruitful relationships.
Ironically, Scandal helped Kerry Washington’s career blossom. She’s received more opportunities since signing up for the show. Beharie is in a superior position to transition heavily into movies.

If I were managing Nicole, she’d be hotter than pancakes in Africa. Agents notoriously hold entertainers back. Often times promoters look out only for themselves at the expense of their clients.

Nicole Beharie is too talented to be on the B list. I believe she’s an A list actress with bad representation. For Nicole to advance, she needs to pick Kerry Washington’s brain. People purposely give bad advice because they want to sabotage you.
Look around and ask yourself do you really need that person in your entourage. Nicole Beharie doesn’t necessarily have to become the next Kerry Washington. She could choose a different direction.
Nicole can make People’s front cover. She can take number 1 on Maxim’s Hot 100. Actors must pay their dues. Is Nicole Beharie paying to play?

Actors Amy Poehler Amy Schumer blondes Celebrity comedy Funny Guru Jay Hillary Clinton Hollywood Inside Amy Schumer Parks & Recreation Rebel Wilson SNL Tina Fey TV and Showbiz Whitney Cummings

Who Is the Funniest Amy? Amy Poehler Vs. Amy Schumer

BY: GURU JAY

If you don’t exercise your funny bone, you risk losing your sense of humor. Next time you workout on the treadmill watch a funny clip of Amy Poehler or Amy Schumer. Who is the best blonde comic?
The comedy world is shifting on the axis of comediennes. Comics consider Amy Poehler as one of the best improv acts in the business. Moreover, Amy Schumer’s standup prowess compares to Jerry Seinfeld and Louis CK.
I must disclose I’m a big Saturday Night Live fan. I’ve admired Amy Poehler for a long time. Her Hillary Clinton impersonation is flawless. Although I wasn’t a Park & Recreation addict, sometimes I checked on the Baby Mama actor.
I recently finished watching back-to-back Schumer standup specials. She may have stolen some jokes from Aziz Ansari, but I don’t care. That’s how comedians play their games.

Right now, hot chicks have monopolized comedy. We have Whitney Cummings, Rebel Wilson, Sarah Silverman, and Tina Fey to support. Who can forget Amy’s Secretary Clinton alongside Tina’s Governor Palin on SNL?

Will the blonde reprise her role as presidential candidate when the election cycle comes and goes? Or will a newcomer take the gig? If it were up to me, Amy would impersonate Hillary forever.
I believe Poehler is underrated and Schumer is overrated. The younger blonde still has a lot left to prove. Can Schumer’s onstage success translate over onscreen? Can Poehler perform stronger standup?
Sometimes Schumer seems desperate for attention. You rarely see Eddie Murphy voluntarily making headlines. Let’s blame Kathy Griffin, whose whole strategy consists of shocking people and going overboard.
In all fairness, it’s too early to do an unbiased comparison of the comedians. Plus, Poehler has already established her calling cards with SNL and P&R. So, let’s do a 2 for 1 bundle of joy. Continue tuning in to see Inside Amy Schumer. In this competitive arena, Schumer is currently overcoming obstacles.

Actors Al Pacino Any Given Sunday Carlito's Way Celebs City Hall Entertainment Guru Jay Heat Hollywood movie stars Movies Robert De Niro Scarface Scent of a Woman The Godfather The Recruit Top 10

Top 10 Al Pacino Movies

BY: GURU JAY

What are the best Al Pacino movies? Are your favorites on the Top 10 list? Let’s look.
Top 10 Al Pacino Movies
10. Scarface                                        
Pacino plays a Cuban refugee turned American gangster in Scarface. It is one of his best showings because the Italian gets his creative juices flowing. Can you imagine playing another nationality and ethnicity?
“Say hello, to my little friend!”
9. Any Given Sunday
In Any Given Sunday, Al Pacino stars as a head coach who delivers an eye opening and ear popping speech to his football team. In addition, Cameron Diaz and Jamie Foxx help Al out with supporting roles. It makes the top 10 because Pacino goes beyond his pay grade.
8. City Hall
Whether you love or hate politicians, you’ll like City Hall politics. This is a diamond in the rough. You haven’t seen Al Pacino quite like this. He shines bright like perfectly polished dress shoes.


7. The Godfather: Part III
Unsurprisingly, The Godfather: Part III was well received by fans and critics alike. Furthermore, the 1990 film cemented Al Pacino’s legacy on the Boulevard. In case you’re wondering, the great actor doesn’t have a handprint on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, nor does he need one.
6 . The Recruit
Colin Farrell became a better actor while filming The Recruit with Al Pacino. Do you want to go on a roller coaster or a merry-go-round? If you want a thriller, I recommend watching this.
5. Heat
In 1995, Al Pacino and Robert De Niro were at the peak of their superpowers. Credit Director Michael Mann for masterminding scenes with the two superstars. Can you handle Heat?
If you can’t handle the heat, get out of the kitchen and cut off the Chew and Rachael Ray.
4. Carlito’s Way
In a way, Carlito’s Way is the sequel to Scarface. The movie contains familiar themes. However, the setting changes to New York. As always, Al Pacino doesn’t disappoint.
3. The Godfather
The Godfather is perhaps the greatest film in cinematic history. In the movie, Don Corleone played by Marlon Brando, shows Pacino the ropes and teaches him the family business. Some say Al Pacino was “too good.”
2. Scent of a Woman
Al Pacino beat out Malcolm X starring Denzel Washington for Best Lead Actor in Scent of a Woman. The film is about an old depressed blind man standing up for a young gentleman. Watch this clip. Here is one of the greatest and most moving cinematic speeches ever recorded.

1. The Godfather: Part II
Mario Puzo and Francis Ford Coppola combined their talents and awarded efforts with Al Pacino to create possibly the greatest book/film trilogy of all time. The Godfather: Part II exceeded every expectation. Though the bar was set at an impossible level, Pacino obtained purity, clarity, and closure as Michael Corleone.
Thank you for reading, commenting, and sharing.

A Beautiful Mind accents Actors Australia Celebs Chris Hemsworth Guru Jay Hollywood Hugh Jackman Les Misérables Margot Robbie Movies New Zealand Nicole Kidman Oscars Prisoners Russell Crowe X-Men

Russell Crowe Vs. Hugh Jackman: Who is the Best Australian/New Zealand Actor?

BY: GURU JAY

  
Forget accent reduction class, come study at GuruJayEntertainment.com and learn how to adopt an accent. Plus, I can teach you how to ‘Dougie.’ In America, it’s true chicks and dudes go bananas when they hear English and Australian accents.
You’ve seen those extremely effective Orbit Gum commercials. The hot blonde sounds like Londoner Mary Poppins. New Yorkers know Russell Crowe and Hugh Jackman can walk into any NYC nightclub right now, and quickly become the life of the party.
Australian/New Zealand actors such as Chris Hemsworth and Margot Robbie are privileged. Young people need to learn communication skills. Moreover, it’s true that it isn’t what you say that matters, but how you say it.

Russell Crowe

I enjoy watching the New Zealander do work on the silver screen. If you want to watch a masterful performance, 10 times out of 10 Crowe delivers. Plus, the movie star talks the talk and walks the walk.

Gladiator, A Beautiful Mind, American Gangster… I can go on and on about his movies. What is more, the actor routinely generates Oscar buzz, because he’s busy as a bumblebee during summertime. Ladybugs never nag him because they love his graces.
Hugh Jackman

Actresses boisterously applaud the Australian actor because they believe he’s simply beautiful. It will be a sad day when his Wolverine character retires from X-Men. The bar is set very high for his replacement.
Check out my X-Men Days of Future Past (best movie I’ve seen) review. You’ll also appreciate Australia starring Nicole Kidman and Hugh Jackman. Have you seen Van Helsing, Real Steel, and Prisoners?
I recommend watching Les Misérables, which stars both Hugh Jackman and Russell Crowe. Without question, Jackman and Crowe are the crème de la crème. It’s a close contest and a great comparison. 

Overall, I believe Russell Crowe is more versatile. However, in my mind, Hugh Jackman is the best actor because he’s unbreakable. What do you think?
