You have been living under a rock if you haven’t heard about the solar eclipse. Also, if you don’t know Halsey by now, allow me to introduce you to her. Halsey is music’s solar eclipse.

Her type of music talent comes around once every 99 years, Halsey was born in 1994 in Washington, New Jersey. Her name is a derivative of a Brooklyn street sign. It is also an anagram of her real name Ashley.

Halsey hasn’t always had it easy although she makes her work look effortless. She struggled at the beginning of her career. However, she didn’t give up and look at her now.

Halsey is music’s solar eclipse because her talent is rare. The Rihanna, Ariana Grande, and Beyonce are a thing of the past. Out of nowhere, Halsey comes and makes a way.

I feel like Halsey falls somewhere between Meghan Trainor and Ariana Grande as far as fame. Make no mistake, she is getting more famous. She has a bright future ahead of her.

She wasn’t in Fifth Harmony or Little Mix, yet she has amassed as much star power as them. Halsey has sang duets with the Chainsmokers and Justin Bieber himself. It is amazing what she has accomplished in such a short span of time. Plus, she is only getting more famous and popular for the right reasons.

What is more, her music is making a claim on popular culture. New Americana is taking over American train of thought. Fans can’t get enough of Now or Never. In fact, they expect to hear the song at concerts. Right now, you can find Halsey on tour. She is performing in Las Vegas, Connecticut and Boston. It is an exciting time for Halsey and her fans. What is your favorite Halsey song? Do you agree that she is music’s solar eclipse?

If you want something to do, why don’t you listen to some music? Listening to music is more than just a hobby. Listening to music is a lifestyle. Can you imagine life without Vevo, Spotify, and Coachella?

Have you heard any good songs lately? I’ll share what’s new on my playlist with readers. Recently, I have discovered Lorde. I highly recommend listening to the singer. I plan on attending her concert in the future.

Her sound is similar to Lady Gaga’s futuristic music. She sounds like a talking saxophone. There’s something special in her voice that only a few singers possess. No one can deny her creative streak.

They say if you can make it here in New York, you can make it anywhere. 20 year-old Lorde demonstrated her big time abilities in the Big Apple as musical guest on Saturday Night Live last March. Her performance received an ample round of applause from a lively crowd. It wouldn’t surprise me if Lorde is invited back to host as early as next year.

The Tennis Court songstress makes headlines like Serena Williams weekly. She may even surpass Serena’s popularity one day soon. But right now the Wimbledon legend is on top.

Still, Lorde has the whole world ahead of her. Did you know the sexy songstress originates out of New Zealand? The hot Iggy Azalea originates out of Australia, which is not too distant from the Green Light singer’s headquarters.

As a result of hard work and good looks, Lorde is a major trend in search results. In fact, she was the 5th most Googled celebrity a month ago. I believe she is in the process of building a global fan base right now. She generates a lot of traction in magazines, on blogs, and around town.

The Interesting Tale of Mandy Moore

Once upon a time there were 3 princesses: Britney, Jessica, and Mandy. They were three of a kind so to say. At their peak potential, they rivaled one another.

Mandy Moore used to dominate MTV back when Carson Daly hosted Total Request Live (TRL). She could sing with the best of them including Britney Spears. She was more famous than Jessica Simpson at one point in time.

Then, something mysterious happened. She went away- not so much in the physical sense but in the supernatural sense. The pop princess was no longer famous in 2007. Yet, last year she comes out of nowhere like Supergirl all of a sudden.

I call this phenomenon the interesting tale of Mandy Moore. The multi-talented Mandy is a very intriguing specimen and fascinating story. She has her way- coming and going as she pleases. Few celebrities can enter and renter Tinseltown after spending time in Zombieland.

That’s why everybody is interested in Mandy Moore’s projects. This Is Us left fans literally dying for Moore. Moreover, the singer has proven she’s a wonderful actress. Whatever you do, don’t underestimate Mandy Moore’s magnetism.

This pop princess knows how to entertain the masses. From the Princess Diaries to Tangled, she came a long way on her journey. Who wants to be her Prince Charming? At 32 years old, Mandy is still young and vibrant.

Future Hollywood stars should learn from this celebrity. If you want to succeed in the entertainment business, sometimes you need to take it slow. Far too many actors/singers rush their game and don’t get to enjoy the fruits of their labors.

When you’re famous, work-life balance may become nonexistent. So try to be like Mandy who is living like a fairy tale. There’s a reason this princess is making headlines right now.

Great comedy can bring people together. Some standups don’t know how to relate to everyone. That’s why you see instant backlash and isolated people at shows.

It is important to win the crowd over and get them on your side. Not everyone can do this effectively. Greatness takes time, dedication, and practice. The best in showbiz don’t become famous overnight.

Russell Peters is one of the greats. He belongs in the best standup comedians conversation. You see Russell engages in risky behaviors and his audience loves him for that.

This comic will make fun of anybody. Hell, he’ll even make fun of himself. When you’re not afraid to tell jokes, you sell out crowds easier. Moreover, he tackles challenging subjects in a sarcastic manner.

Born in Toronto Canada, he qualifies as one of the funniest Canadians. Plus, his Indian background contributes a great deal to his material. You could compare him to Aziz Ansari but there is only one Russell Peters. Make no mistake, his style and delivery are unmistakeable.

Many of his jokes are unrepeatable, of course, because they are NSFW (Not Safe For Work). In other words, repeating his comedy at your job could get you fired. So, proceed with caution. Tread on thin ice if you don’t want to offend anybody.

Everyone must know the importance of timing in standup comedy. Russell Peters delivers like Amazon, right on time. Right now is Russell Peters time to shine. The celebrity is singing You Are My Sunshine on his way to the bank. He has a lot to be happy about.

The 46-year-old is one of the highest paid comedians according to Forbes. He makes $21 million per year. That’s almost as much as LeBron James’ take home pay. I highly recommend watching his Almost Famous standup special. And I look forward to seeing his future work.

Why Keira Knightley Is The Perfect Actress

Keira Knightley is one of my favorite actresses. I believe she is the best British entertainer right now. Moreover, her qualities as an actor are perfect. At 31, who has accomplished as much as this Hollywood star?

She poetically portrays characters on the silver screen. Also, nothing gets in the way of her delivering top notch results. Keira Knightley is known for superior performances. The Hollywood actress is laser focused in her films. You can easily see how her hard work pays dividends.

In my mind, Keira Knightley should sit next to Julia Roberts at the Academy Awards. Why don’t I arrange the Oscars seating charts with Keira Knightley’s Name between Roberts and mine?; that’s just a suggestion. Like Brie Larson, she’s one of the best actresses in showbiz. The red carpet was made for her footprints.

This phenomenal actress is one of the reasons I recommend Collateral Beauty. She helps bring the story to life as her character pulls off an amazing performance. I literally love Keira Knightley, who plays the abstract Love, in Collateral Beauty.

Additionally, she steals the spotlight from Benedict Cumberbatch in the Imitation Game. The wonderful thespian convinces the audience that her character, a cryptanalyst, helps save the world from destruction. Did you know that the movie is based on a true story?

As you can tell, Keira Knightley is everything you want in an actress. She has the look and style plus the talent minus the attitude. Sure, she seems a little sassy but that’s how we like it, right? When you make it to the top, you’re entitled to special privileges.

Knightley has earned significant star power by consistently shining throughout her illustrious career. She’s earned endorsements by commanding attention to her cause. Through constant repetition and memorization, Keira Knightley became one of the highest paid and most in-demand actresses of all time. As far as I’m concerned, Keira Knightley is the perfect actress.

How Incredible Is Melissa Benoist?

We are reentering Supergirl season 2 and it’s safe to say Melissa Benoist is still super. I began binge watching Supergirl this week. And I’ve concluded that Melissa Benoist was put on earth to become Kara Zor-El on television. How does she do it, episode after episode? She’s absolutely incredible.

You can see the determination in her eyes. Melissa Benoist seeks glory as Supergirl. She belongs in the DC Comics. It is her destiny. No doubt Henry Cavill aka Superman is impressed by the former Glee star. Don’t forget that she is a multi-talented celebrity.

The triple threat actress is best suited and well-equipped. In other words, Benoist is up for the challenge at hand. So prepare yourself for a wild ride. She’ll flap her cape around and fly you high like a Boeing 777. Melissa is reaching new heights by the second.

It’s amazing watching Melissa in action. Whatever she touches turns to gold. I’m looking forward to her future movies. Moreover, the Hollywood star deserves a pay raise.

She’s in a similar position as Hilary Duff. All she needs is one big blockbuster or an Academy Award, and she’s set for life. Supergirl has a shelf-life, but Melissa Benoist’s name can go down in history.

Benoist digs deep down into the heart and soul of a character. You should check out her performance in Whiplash. Not only does she play a wonderful supporting actress, she’s a terrific love interest.

Maybe, Supergirl could play Batman’s lover now that the Batman v. Superman saga is completed. How’s that for a script? Superman and Batman end up as brother-in-laws. You get my drift (they’re family). Unfortunately, the likely ending scenario is like Scarface. Do you remember the scene when Al Pacino’s character Tony Montana discovered his sister Gina in lingerie at his best friend’s home? They had recently got married. That’s a story for another day.

Anyway, I say all this to say Melissa Benoist is absolutely incredible.

Hollywood has every star you could think of: from music, comedy, tv and of course movies. Being famous is harder than you think though. Entertainers are under enormous pressure to perform and exceed expectations. It’s not enough to please fans anymore, you have to please producers and directors too.

Blake Lively is fastly becoming one of my favorite actresses. Can you believe the Age of Adaline actress is only 29 years old? But she has built the body of work of a 40 year old actor. Check out Blake Lively in my piece called 30 Hottest Hollywood Starlets Under 30.

It’s only a matter of time before Blake Lively receives her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Celebrities like Lively walk on the red carpet for a living and receive star treatment. What is more, this celebrity can have anything she wants, all she needs to do is ask for it. You asked for it and that’s why you’re here.

Lively is in the process of becoming an exceptional A List actress. We’re talking about the best in the business here. It wouldn’t surprise if she is the highest paid actress pretty soon. She’s already one of the hottest.

As you can see Blake Lively stays busy. The Gossip Girl cares about her reputation. Did you know she filmed 121 episodes in 6 seasons of Gossip Girl?

The celebrity is proof that when you play your cards right, nothing can go wrong. Everything goes as plan if you stick to the script and execute. Who’s more in demand than Blake Lively right now?

The Shallows made $119 million at the box office. Cafe Society was a critical success. And All I See Is You should do well in theaters.

Moreover, she is a showbiz princess. Blake Lively is a joy to be around. The pleasant actress keeps a smile on her face no matter what. Who’s hotter than Blake Lively?
