I watch movies differently than most people. I pick apart scripts and analyze every component. I do this out of recognition and appreciation of the thoughtful creative process.

I would like to acknowledge Amy Adams for her eminence. Amy Adams effortlessly plays characters. In a peculiar manner, she is and isn’t supposed to be a Hollywood actress.

I believe an intelligent designer created a work of art when he sculpted Amy Adams into existence. Everywhere she turns the Big Eyes actress diverts eyeballs into her direction. Who could forget about her onscreen love affairs with actors Christian Bale and Bradley Cooper? She stole the spotlight from Jennifer Lawrence.

Amy Adams maintains her composure following Tinseltown tradition. Moreover, she is authentic in an artificial environment. Adams appears regal and classic in both her approach and delivery.

Perhaps, there is a rationale behind the casting of Adams opposite of Meryl Streep in Julie & Julia. Americans and to a lesser extent Europeans and Asians relate to the thespian’s array of roles. Her characters face the obstacles encountered by ordinary females.

For instance, Big Eyes (based on true events) rehashes a story about a husband taking total credit for his housewife’s paintings featuring big eyes. The film takes place in the 1950s and 1960s. There is a good chance your grandmother might have experienced similar situations as Margaret Keane.

In essence, Adams portrays the fabric of society. She neither sugarcoats nor exaggerates facts with the exception for fantasy movies like Enchanted and Night at the Museum. That’s why she is the real McCoy.

I am captivated by her discipline and dedication. At the request of The Master director she arrived early for their whole filming. Mind you, she didn’t appear in every scene. Minor details such as these make major differences in film production.

I read the American celebrity isn’t a natural redhead but was born blonde and in Italy. Whatever the case, she is a sight to behold. I’m leaping because the Leap Year actress turns frowns into pleasurable emoticons.

Amy Adam’s execution is precise. I realize she is the best of the best. I enjoy watching this celeb in interviews almost as much as in movies.

After receiving numerous nominations and awards- Oscars and Golden Globes- the actress belongs in the entertainment industry. I feel Hollywood represents a place of enormous possibilities where dreams and realities often merge into one and are indistinguishable. If Amy Adams can become rich and famous, so can you.

John Legend began his career honing music skills as a backup singer. Right now the musician is internationally recognized for his distinguished sound. He falls somewhere between Smokey Robinson and Stevie Wonder in abilities. In other words, the unique entertainer is extremely gifted and talented.

When I first listened to John Legend’s Ordinary People, I thought the song was from the 80s. I couldn’t believe it was original. John’s music transcends time and resonates with everyone.

His vocal chords stretch to their total capacities. When the musician performs he always gives his best. While John started small, Legend finished big.

Finally the soulful singer is receiving his long overdue respect. Over time, he gradually became a superb entertainer. What is more, as a music artist, John Legend has already mastered his craft.

Practice makes perfect, especially in the arts. Although everybody receives gifts, some people ignore their talents and conform to society’s dictations. Others avoid the safe route altogether and go down a road less travelled like Legends.

The artist was awarded multiple Grammys, a Golden Globe, and an Oscar. Glory, a song co-written with Common for the Selma movie, is highly regarded. You see Legend’s lyrics entertain, inform, and inspire. Can you say the same about contemporaries?

Hollywood’s infamous smog clouds a celebrity’s judgment. Fortunately, John Legend uses his position to vocalize the concerns of many disenfranchised people. Taking bold stances requires guts.

Don’t get me wrong. John Legend is not a political machine, but he speaks up when necessary. His comments might not always appear appropriate. But he doesn’t have an agenda and makes valid points.

The Wake Up Everybody remake video draws parallels of yesterday and today. The question is where are we headed tomorrow. In addition, Legend is famous for bolting out thunderous ballads.

Tonight (Best You Ever Had) and Green Light showcase the singer’s awesome strengths. Although he’s well known for amazing slow songs, Legend can easily increase the tempo. He comfortably controls his perfect pitch.

Who else sings with a strong and deep voice? Give him a keyboard and microphone and watch him go to work. He treats music as none of your business.

He minds his own as a true professional. Tabloids try very hard to catch a celebrity slipping. But I believe John Legend practices preaching sermons. Have you heard Legend sing Gospel music?

Music scientists look to preserve John Legend’s potent voice. Many musicians fail because they try to conquer mainstream. Legend doesn’t compete with Bruno Mars. If anything, he adds value to today’s artistry. What are the best John Legend songs and your favorite videos?
