Don Cheadle: From Hotel Rwanda to House of Lies

From Hotel Rwanda to House of Lies, Don Cheadle has come a long way. Great actors come along in not so great times. And Don defines greatness.

You see Cheadle can play anyone, and he does it all too well. Moreover, he is instantly recognizable whether at the Waldorf Astoria or up in Harlem at the Cotton Club. Everybody likes Don Cheadle.

He readjusts his mirrors when the time is right. Plus, there is never a dull moment with the movie star in the driver’s seat. I’m also interested in seeing Don Cheadle take his director’s chair to the next level.

The chemistry between Don Cheadle and Kristen Bell is amazing. Maybe, I’ll write a blog about Bell pretty soon. Didn’t he bring the best out of her? Cheadle brings out the best in people because he is the best. That’s why actors enjoy working with him. They strive for greatness together.

You see he has fans all over the world. Cheadle’s starred in blockbusters and critically acclaimed films alike. It is incredible watching him perform with Robert Downey Jr in Iron Man and Captain America. What is more, he easily plays good cop/ bad cop. The Brooklyn’s Finest actor has finely tuned his instrument. Who can deny Don Cheadle’s talented abilities?

I feel Don Cheadle is elite because of his dedication. How else do you explain why House of Lies ran 5 successful seasons on Showtime? Without commitment at the top, nothing really happens.

Here’s the truth about House of Lies. The show could have gone on forever. Cheadle’s that much of an asset to any cast. Whatever the situation you put him in, he continually rises to the occasion.

Does he disappoint sometimes? Sure. I think Traitor was a blunder on his part. Still, you can’t succeed without learning from failure.

Ellen DeGeneres Should Make Oprah Money

Ellen DeGeneres Should Make Oprah Money


The generous Ellen DeGeneres generates electricity on the Ellen show. When the lights are out, the first thing you do is call the electric company. How about giving Ellen a call the next time this happens. I can’t make any promises but I’m sure she’ll at least make you smile.

For 14 years Ellen has been doing exactly that and eating the cake. Everyday on the Ellen Show is like your birthday. You never know what’s up her sleeves. The celebrity is full of surprises.

Soon, she’ll be giving away cars to everybody like Oprah did. Like orange is the new black, Ellen is the new Oprah. You watch.

Wouldn’t it be great if she starred on the Netflix hit OITNB? At a minimum, she could make a cameo or maybe voiceover even. Who’s waiting?


Her creativity assists in an entertaining experience. Speaking of experience, who else in showbiz (but Oprah) can match her clout?

Another thing- what if she did Carpool Karaoke with James Corden? That’s why I love celebrities and entertainment so much. There’s a whole lot we can do. Let your imagination run wild and I’ll take you there.

Do you like the Ellen show? I’ll say it again! Ellen DeGeneres is a standup gal. You like to watch her because she’s amazing at monologues and interviews.

Last week was premiere week on Ellen. I got a chance to watch the full Friday show live. In case you missed it, Tom Hanks made a grand entrance. What is more, DeGeneres donated her largest gift in history to her home state of Louisiana. As you may know, Louisiana got hit hard by flooding recently.


Ellen couldn’t stand by and watch this devastation. This is why Britney Spears (who took the famous Ed O’Neill Selfie) joined the team. Right now, it is incredible that the talk show host is backing up her words with action.

How Zendaya and Tinashe Shake, Rattle, and Roll

BY: GURU JAY
My motto is: shake, rattle, and roll. Do you want to shake, rattle, and roll with me? Check out Guru Jay Archives at your leisure for the best blogs in entertainment.


Zendaya and Tinashe are two people I know who are ready to shake, rattle, and roll. At 19, it seems Zendaya already has it together. Her products sell easily. And few entertainers can do what she does. Also at 23, Tinashe has a lot going on.

Corrine Bailey Rae sings, “girl, put your records on.” Let’s put Zendaya on Replay because she’s been put on the map. Plus, her music continues to give fans benefits without a doubt.

Tinashe is giving the media headlines to write. Apparently, she’s dating the 5 AM musician Calvin Harris. You see she’s got plenty of tricks up her sleeves.

Zendaya is providing Something New. What is more, the singer, dancer, and actress is diversified in entertainment assets. As a Disney Alumni, she can relax knowing that royalty checks are coming in the mail. Moreover, the celebrities make money like Lil Wayne and 50 Cent.

What if Tinashe and Zendaya collaborated with Keke Palmer? Could you imagine Tinashe performing as a Hollywood actress? The Lexington, Kentucky songstress isn’t too far off from making her showbiz dreams come true. I can see both of them possessing a Hollywood Star on the Walk of Fame in the very near future. One such hollywood star with a distant past is Elvis Presley.

Elvis sang, “Well I said shake, rattle and roll
I said shake rattle and roll
I said shake, rattle and roll
I said shake rattle and roll
Well you won’t do right
To save your doggone soul”

In closing, Zendaya and Tinashe shake, rattle, and roll by engaging millions of fans everyday on social media. Do you follow them on Twitter and Instagram? Do you follow me on Twitter and Instagram? My Twitter handle is @IamGuruJay and my instagram is @TheGuruJay. Let’s connect!

Can You Get More Famous Than Michael Jackson?

BY: GURU JAY


Can you get more famous than Michael Jackson? The King of Pop ruled popular culture with a velvet glove and red leather jacket. He still has wild fans going crazy all over the place. Plus, he had a big fortune in addition to fame.

Nobody, not even Beyonce, can get more famous than Michael Jackson. Beyonce may wind up with more money, but not fame. Let me know if you disagree.

Like Prince, Whitney Houston and Aaliyah Michael Jackson gave his all. He displayed passion and compassion. Further, he was highly regarded as a humanitarian.

When it came to premium entertainers, Michael was the best they came. His singing voice was accurate beyond belief. His dance moves mesmerized crowds. He understood how to entertain. That’s why he was great.

When he died, people immediately thought he faked his death like Elvis and Tupac supposedly had done.


Everyone can name a Michael Jackson song. Almost everyone has seen one of his music videos. Have you tried moon walking? Michael popularized it!

What are your favorite Michael Jackson songs and music videos? Some of my favorites are: You Rock My World, Black or White, Smooth Criminal, and Dirty Diana. Are you a fan of the Jackson 5? I love Who’s Loving You?, I Want You Back, and ABC.

You’ll find people dancing to Thriller from New York to as far as Tokyo. The whole world knows “Billie Jean is not my lover.” “She’s just a girl who says I am the one.” And according to Maury, you are not the father!

Michael Jackson has sold an estimated 400 million records internationally. Moreover, the Thriller album is the greatest selling album of all time with 65 million claimed sales. It’s easy to claim that billions around the world are familiar with MJ’s rhythm and blues.

Final thoughts, can you get more famous than the King of Pop? Without question, you simply can’t get more famous than Michael Jackson. Many will try to, though.

Who Are Your Favorite Real Housewives?

BY: GURU JAY

Do you want to blowup overnight? Is it your time to shine and be famous? Would you like to have your own reality TV show? 

Can you picture the camera crew literally waiting all day for you to BLOW UP? You see blowing up can take on multiple meanings. Anyway, let’s put more meaning behind our words; and at the same time don’t take someone’s bullshit too literal. 

You don’t have to watch a reality show to know we don’t live in a drama free world. But, there’s hope thanks to Hollywood. Instead of concentrating on all the violence, you can choose to focus on Exhibit A: Kim Kardashian or Exhibit B. Kylie Jenner. 

In the words of the Beatles, give peace a DAMN chance! You see that I put a twist on it. The fact is reality TV allows an escape from the real world.

Are you a single mother? It’s hard paying rent sometimes. It’s a struggle but be “thankful for what you got and keep on pushing.” Curtis Mayfield told us that.

Are you a housewife? You can just relax and be yourself. Feed the kids. Get them off to school. 

Then, go shopping. Get a manicure and pedicure. Cook dinner. Clean house.

Now, it’s time to party. So, Sh-shake your money maker. The only caveat is it is all on tape for everyone to see. But you get a fat check at the end of the day. 

Here’s an idea. Why not make a private reality show right now? Call it Me-Time.

Do you watch the Real Housewives? Who are your favorite stars? What franchises do you like better? My two favorites are Bethenny Frankel and NeNe Leakes. I like New Jersey (RHONJ) and Atlanta (RHOA) and Beverly Hills (RHOBH) more than the rest.

If you asked me, I had enough of Wendy Williams. Bring back the Bethenny talk show. I think they didn’t want to pay full value for Bethenny and settled for Wendy. Chime in your comments.

Marilyn Monroe Was the Ultimate Sex Symbol

BY: GURU JAY

I watched The Seven Year Itch a few months ago. In the movie, Marilyn Monroe showed why she was the ultimate sex symbol. All she had to do was be her sexy self. And she was too sexy for herself! I highly recommend The Seven Year Itch if you enjoy watching classic films.


She really was a work of art onscreen and off. Moreover, photographers fantasized about shooting photos of the Hollywood star in their studios. Only a few were lucky enough though to capture all her beauty and glory.


I believe Marilyn Monroe invented the sex symbol. There are actresses everywhere trying to look, act, and talk exactly like Monroe. You could argue that Scarlett Johansson and Jennifer Lawrence are sex symbols because of Monroe’s popularity.  



Who is Hugh Hefner without Marilyn Monroe? Playboy came about because of their iconic spreads and Cover Girls. It seems this gorgeous California girl made Hollywood a landmark all by herself. You see there are a million Marilyn Monroe movies out there because she was one in a million.


It’s okay to be obsessed with Monroe. You have my permission. How many times have we’ve seen Marilyn’s image plastered on posters and calendars in offices, bars, and homes? Plus she may have one of the most famous silhouettes of all time.


Britney Spears picks up beauty tricks from Marilyn Monroe. That’s why the blonde is so effective from Reese Witherspoon to Cameron Diaz. Would you read a Monroe beauty book of secrets?

It’s no secret why Marilyn Monroe was the ultimate sex symbol. Her 5’5 curvaceous figure appealed to our finer senses. The sensual celebrity paved the way for Ashley Graham, Kate Upton, and others to follow. You don’t have to be pencil thin to be a marketable model. There’s beauty in every shape and size.


In a nutshell, the blonde bombshell was the ultimate celebrity.

15 Minutes of Fame Actors Adam Sandler Celebrity comedians comedy David Spade Famous People Funny Guru Jay Hollywood Hollywood Stars Jewish Celebrities Kevin James Movies Netflix Showbiz The Do-Over

15 Minutes of Adam Sandler

BY: GURU JAY
Great comedians like Adam Sandler make not so great movies sometimes. The tradeoff is that Adam Sandler makes really great movies here and there. No one doubts his funniness. Watch 15 minutes of Adam Sandler when having a hard time laughing.
The remedy for boredom is comedy. Adam Sandler could be your CVS pharmacist. He dispenses his jokes like medicine.
What is more, few comedians make great actors. Tell me what beats Adam Sandler in rare form. Reign Over Me remains one of my favorite movies because it showcases all of the comedic actor’s gifts.
Are you looking forward to the Do-Over? This Netflix original starring Sandler and David Spade is about two friends faking their deaths and taking on new identities. Watch the 3 minute trailer and try not to crack a smile.

Showbiz can be tough, especially being funny in the business. Sometimes the joke is on you. What do you do when your world caves in and the chips are stacked against you?

Adam Sandler received a lot of heat for Ridiculous Six. How did he respond? In life, you must be smart about your reactions. Everyone won’t see it your way.
Adam Sandler serves as a perfect example of how to handle criticism. Check out who’s better Adam Sandler Vs. Jerry Seinfeld.
Nowadays Hollywood wields great power. Celebrities must be careful because the media will go after them for one wrong move. The margin of error is slim.
Sandler put on an awesome performance in Pixels. Adam plus Kevin James is a winning combination. You see Sandler scores touchdowns, when most just get extra points. Who remembers the Longest Yard and the Waterboy?
Adam also can score a hole in one like Happy Gilmore. Most people want 15 minutes of fame. I want 15 minutes of Adam Sandler.
