Easy Like Lionel Richie

Lionel Richie creates masterpieces like Michelangelo sculpted. That’s why controversy arose when Adele made Hello. Up until that point, Lionel Richie’s name was associated with Hello because of his hit record by the same name. Right now Richie can joke about it with the English songstress.
Lionel Richie must continue preserving himself because that’s the key to his legendary greatness. His music keeps getting covered by artists all around the world. Clearly he has a universal sound.
The Sail On singer can still sell out concert seats if he wants to today. Lionel Richie is a brand name like LL Cool J. What is more, true to his name- he is rich with a net worth of approximately $200 million.
He spends much time having his trophies shined and polished. The man looks like a walking Grammy himself. If Grammys were designed with Sir Paul McCartney in mind, then they were also designed with Mr. Lionel Richie at heart.
You see Richie gets respect because he is elite. He dines with dignitaries. He sings before kings and queens at their palaces.
Plus, his hot daughter Nicole Richie has a lot going for her. The Richies are becoming one of the world’s most famous families. Miles and Sofia are building names for themselves too.
Imagine a day (preferably Sunday) in Lionel Richie’s life. If you spend Saturdays listening to Stevie Wonder, why not spend Sundays listening to Lionel Richie? Picture having no worries or cares and complete freedom.  It seems the Commodore has all these things and more.
You gotta be easy like Lionel Richie.

Samuel L. Jackson Vs. Laurence Fishburne

BY: GURU JAY

  
Is Samuel L. Jackson overrated? Is Laurence Fishburne underrated? In this article, I will underline their similarities and differences.
First, I don’t believe Jackson is overrated. You can’t deny that he is dependable. There’s a reason the actor ranks #1 at the box office all time grossing over $11 billion.
Samuel L. Jackson aka Nick Fury is The Negotiator too. Did you know the actor is an avid golfer? Give Jackson credit for his people skills. Plus, actors enjoy working with him.
Do you ever wonder what’s in Samuel L. Jackson’s wallet? According to the Richest, the celebrity’s net worth is $170 million. What is more, the hard worker earns every penny.
Now, Laurence Fishburne is underrated. We’re talking about Morpheus from The Matrix, here. He is a premium quality actor, who deserves an Oscar.

I feel Fishburne lost valuable roles to Denzel Washington through the years. While Tinsel Town is a town big enough for both of them, these CEOs love cutting corners. Hopefully, Hollywood reverses course before it’s too late.
Film students should study Fishburne. When it comes to drama, few actors can compare to his greatness. Although Samuel may have a farther driving range, Laurence’s acting range is one of the best in showbiz. Do you want proof? Check out What’s Love Got to Do with It, Akeelah and the Bee and Contagion.
Can you believe both actors launched their careers in 1972? The main difference is Laurence Fishburne received immediate acclaim. Thus, the actor played in more movies from the onset. In contrast, Samuel L. Jackson received more roles later on in his career.
I greatly admire Samuel L. Jackson and Laurence Fishburne because they continue teaching upcoming talents. Applaud Jackson for all of his amazing accomplishments. And give Fishburne recognition for Blackish.
These Old School actors offer an avenue for the New School. There’s nothing new under the sun, right? That’s why Hollywood remakes movies every decade. Unfortunately, it’s impossible to remake one-of-a-kind actors like Samuel L. Jackson and Laurence Fishburne.

How Rihanna Is Everything and Everywhere

BY: GURU JAY


Rihanna’s roots sprout up from Barbados. When the platinum music artist crossed over from overseas, she brought the Rihanna Navy along for cruising. Because of a smashing hit streak, the mononymous entertainer has turned into Miss International.
Currently, Celebrity Net Worth calculates Rihanna’s value at $140 million. All I know is their accountants better have counted every dollar bill, because there are serious repercussions for inaccuracies. All jokes aside, Rihanna has built her very own version of Imperial Rome.
Think about it. Rihanna is everything and everywhere. She’s not only accepted and supported by Main Street but also financed by Wall Street. What corporation doesn’t want to license her name or get her endorsement?

Moreover, internationally Rihanna’s market value seems infinite. How did this all happen? I believe she learned from the best: Jay Z, Beyoncé, and Britney Spears.
You see, Jay Z and Beyoncé remain relevant despite fierce competition. And Britney Spears meant the world to music. You must learn from past success and mistakes.
Rihanna reveals just enough to make you want more. She was the reason I watched Battleship. The celebrity can’t mess up.
Okay, everybody can mess up sometimes. But, you rarely see Badgirl Riri off her game. She is dedicated to her craft. The glitz and glamor of Hollywood won’t distract her from destiny.

That’s why the singer is prolifically producing supreme content. Do I agree with her every move? Of course I don’t.
I disagree with her addressing some detractors directly. There are times she put people in check that weren’t in her league. Still, standing up for your cause is good practice. I believe when you reach Rihanna’s level you start seeing things differently.
In a nutshell, Rihanna is everything and everywhere by design. Her success is not by accident. Right now, the world is hers.

Charlize Theron Vs. Uma Thurman: Battle of the Blondes

BY: GURU JAY
In a recent story, I wrote about the Astronaut’s Wives Club. Coincidentally, Charlize Theron starred in a movie called the Astronaut’s Wife. There’s one blonde in Astronaut Wives Club, Yvonne Strahovski, and she leads the way.

Charlize Theron plays Will Smith’s estranged wife in Hancock. The South African actress helps define beauty. Her long hair was more than gorgeous.
You like Charlize because she’s flexible. She stretches roles like in a Pilates video.
You can’t say enough about Uma Thurman. She is fantastic in Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill. Have you seen Gattaca? The actress is literally perfect in it. It’s one of my favorite movies starring lead actor Ethan Hawke.
I wonder if it is possible to transpose actor’s characters. Can you imagine Theron under Quentin Tarantino’s direction? Better even, what if Charlize worked with John Travolta?

Uma has done all those things. That’s why she has an advantage. But the war is still going on, and there will be many battles to come.
You see Charlize has a net worth of $110 million, compared to Uma’s $45 million. Why is this the case? Well, Theron has an entire industrialized nation behind her.
When you’re the most famous South African celebrity, you call some big shots. Plus, your marriage to Sean Penn dramatically assisted your career accolades. Also, considering Charlize is 39 to Uma’s 45, she has an age advantage.

At 5’ 10” Charlize Theron has the ideal figure of a fashion model. Plus, the green-eyed chick possessed natural blonde hair. However, at almost 40, is it possible she shed her locks because it’s turning gray? Still, the Mad Max: Fury Road actor is sexy as hell.
And so is Uma Thurman. If you met them in person, could you distinguish the two celebs? Or is it impossible to tell the difference like Jennifer Garner and Hilary Swank?
I like Charlize’s body better. But I appreciate Uma’s body of work more. If Tarantino is the top R-rated director, then Thurman is his most prized possession.

In a nutshell, Charlize Theron and Uma Thurman are high quality movie stars. It’s all a matter of preferences. Which blonde do you prefer?

Ali Concussion Dwayne Johnson Entertainment Focus Furious 7 Gridiron Gang Guru Jay Hancock Hitch money net worth richest actors San Andreas the Fresh Prince the Game Plan the Rock Will Smith WWE

How Dwayne Johnson & Will Smith Made Their Names Famous

BY: GURU JAY

  
Focus lead actor Will Smith was the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air for six seasons before becoming Mr. Box Office. Despite questionable decision making such as role selections, Smith always over delivers and never disappoints. Don’t fault a man for taking chances.
Most fans recall Dwayne Johnson’s WWE days as the Rock. Thousands have rented his Pay-Per-View World Wrestling Entertainment Championships. Nowadays, Johnson need not answer the question “if you smell… what the Rock is cooking?” In Hollywood and around the world, he is known as a premiere movie star.


What do the Rock and the Fresh Prince have in common? They started on a small scale and finished second to nobody. Also, it helps that these highly demanded actors simultaneously improved their skills as well as their physiques.
Watching Will and Dwayne perform onscreen is akin to seeing an athlete in action. It’s like spectating a NBA slam-dunk contest starring Blake Griffin and LeBron James inside a packed movie theater. As a professional wrestler Johnson can compete toe-to-toe with the best NFL Linebackers and Defensive Ends.
If you haven’t seen Gridiron Gang or the Game Plan, you don’t know what you’re missing out on.

Doesn’t Matt Kemp resemble Will Smith?

Have you seen Hancock, Hitch, or Seven Pounds?

Plus, Smith & Johnson are the richest actors. Sources estimate Dwayne is valued at $150 million. And Will’s net worth exceeds $250 million. Even Jay-Z would say they are “getting money like athletes.”
Johnson can learn a lot from Smith, who owns a stake in the Philadelphia 76ers. Will and Dwayne don’t ever have to worry. No matter what happens they are guaranteed money because of their legacies.

I consider Johnson to be one of the best movie stars right now. Moreover, Smith is one of the greatest actors I have ever seen across eras. Smith deserved Oscars for Independence Day, the Legend of Bagger Vance, Ali, Pursuit of Happyness, and I am Legend.

Dwayne Johnson and Will Smith first made their names outside of acting. The Rock wrestled and the Fresh Prince originally from Philadelphia emceed. The takeaway is to do your best and keep getting better.
