Actors Angelina Jolie Brad Pitt Bradley Cooper Celebs Channing Tatum Guru Jay Halle Berry Hollywood Squares Hunger Games Jennifer Lawrence Magic Mike XXL Marilyn Monroe Movies NSFW Oscars sex symbols

Channing Tatum, Jennifer Lawrence, and the Center Hollywood Squares

Right now, Channing Tatum and Jennifer Lawrence are entertainment’s most marketable names. Lawrence will soon replace Marilyn Monroe as the perfect sex symbol. And Channing Tatum will become the new Brad Pitt.
Oddly enough, Pitt’s wife Angelina was the last actress to receive universal approval. Before her, the Hollywood obsession was Halle Berry. Today, it’s time for Jennifer to shine. Moreover, I feel there’s something special about Jennifer.
Have you seen White House Down? In this movie, Secret Agent Tatum saves President Foxx and the world over. It is one of the actor’s best films because he goes in hard.
Various reports reveal Jennifer Lawrence turned down a date with Prince Harry. Do you understand the logic? Would you have gone out with him 1 time?
Magic Mike and Hunger Games are cash cows because of Tatum’s and Lawrence’s involvement. Without them, the movies wouldn’t even have sequels. Remember Jennifer and Channing command top dollar because they’re top talent.

These movie stars can seduce anybody. They exhibit charisma even while sleeping. What is more, Lawrence and Tatum reverse the script.
I recommend seeing the Silver Linings Playbook a second time. Jennifer Lawrence won an Oscar for it. Unfortunately, the Academy snubbed her costar Bradley Cooper.
There was a game show called Hollywood Squares. You can watch its reruns on the Game Show Network. It starred celebrities such as Whoopi Goldberg, Gilbert Gottfried, Kathy Griffin, and the late Joan Rivers. Plus, Tom Bergeron served as host for 6 years.
There were 9 squares and cast members. The celebrities occupied a square resembling a cubicle. The game was played on a squared tic-tac-toe board with X’s and O’s. To get your marks, the celebrity helped you answer questions.
The center square was reserved for the elite. It was a subtle acknowledgement of their standing. Ellen DeGeneres, Alec Baldwin, and Simon Cowell all sat in this square. Surely, Channing Tatum and Jennifer Lawrence are the center Hollywood squares right now.

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?

How Jamie Foxx Became Extraordinary

BY: GURU JAY


Ordinary people settle for mediocrity. Extraordinary individuals believe in their abilities and never get complacent. Jamie Foxx became extraordinary by making his dreams come true.
Do you watch the Jamie Foxx show? That sitcom serves as perfect example of Foxx’s trajectory. From the beginning, determined and ambitious Jamie King chased Francesca (Fancy) all around the hotel. In the finale, Jamie marries Fancy and all is well.
At my elementary school, classmates and I would practice Jamie Foxx’s tagline during recess. The genius of Jamie’s comedy is that it’s capable of reaching everybody. Have you seen the Annie remake starring the multitalented celebrity?

Anyone who can perform standup comedy, act in a variety of roles, and sing Hip-Hop with perfection is special. Furthermore, the complete entertainer hosts a radio program called the Foxx Hole.
Plus, the actor/singer/comedian tickles the ebonies and ivories similar to Alicia Keys. You see Jamie enjoys making money and the celebrity’s creativity is off the charts. People give their undivided attention to Foxx because he has established himself as a one-stop entertainment shop.

If you still don’t believe Jamie Foxx isn’t extraordinary tell that to the Grammys, Golden Globes, and Oscars committees because they all awarded him the highest honors. Do you think Jamie is a better actor, comedian, or singer? I considered him best at acting, then singing, and lastly comedy.
The fact of the matter is Jamie can do it all exceptionally well. Like Jim Carrey and Jennifer Lopez, Kennan Ivory Wayans and In Living Color opened opportunities for Foxx. Plus, Def Comedy Jam gained the comedian more exposure. Watching Jamie perform is like seeing LeBron James play basketball.

What are your favorite Jamie Foxx films? I recommend Ray, the Soloist, Law Abiding Citizen, and Django Unchained. Because of his authentic gifts, Jamie Foxx belongs in the conversation among the greatest entertainers of all time.

actresses Celebrities Cleveland Entertainment Guru Jay Halle Berry Hollywood James Bond Monster's Ball Movies Oscars Revlon Swordfish Things We Lost in the Fire Vanessa Williams X-Men

Best Halle Berry Movies

BY: GURU JAY

Before striking riches and getting famous, Halle Berry competed in beauty pageants. Like Vanessa Williams, Halle Berry made her mark the old fashioned way. Through the years, the auditioning process was hectic for Halle. Still, the movie star persevered.
Credit Spike Lee for giving the celebrity her start. Born in Cleveland, Halle is well recognized around the world as the face of Revlon. She is also a perky personality with enormous talents.
True fans love Halle Berry in Introducing Dorothy Dandridge and Their Eyes Were Watching God. These two motion pictures highlight Halle Berry’s vulnerabilities. Also, who can forget Berry’s breakthrough performance in Losing Isaiah? Fortunately, Halle Berry has been in umpteen blockbusters including the X-men franchise.
The Perfect Stranger actress is no stranger to box office records. According to Box Office Mojo, Halle Berry’s lifetime movie ticket sales top $1.85 billion. Furthermore, the former Bond girl gained even more attention from her Swordfish role.

A true thespian at heart, Halle took paycuts along the way for art’s sake. For instance, Halle earned a pittance from Things We Lost in the Fire and Frankie & Alice. As a result, she has gained an elevated status. And she is well respected in Hollywood squares and among show business circles.

At the 2002 Oscars, Halle was the first African American woman to win Best Lead Actress. The Academy appreciated Halle Berry in Monster’s Ball because of its realness. If Halle Berry was the Yin, then Billy Bob Thornton was the Yang.
As preparation for this blog, I watched Berry’s Inside the Actors Studio. I learned that Halle’s career would have never happened without her mother’s loving support. Halle tells at length about her journey but never makes excuses.
It’s a joy looking back at Berry’s best films. Overtime she’s developed into a great actress. What are your favorite Halle Berry movies?

Academy Awards action Actors Bourne Identity Celebs Cristiano Ronaldo Entertainment Hollywood Mark Wahlberg Matt Damon Mission Impossible Movies Oscars Phillip Seymour Hoffman Stars Tom Cruise

Who is the Best Action Movie Star? Matt Damon Vs. Tom Cruise

BY: GURU JAY


The Mission: Impossible and Bourne franchises are the best action movie series to date. Tom Cruise and Matt Damon bring their badass characters to life with their intensity. They kick butt like Cristiano Ronaldo strikes Soccer balls.  
Whether you want some action or not, they will give it to your ass. Over the past 15 years, they’ve built a good reputation. Today, they’re known as the shiniest Hollywood movie stars. 
The Bourne Supremacy ranks in my top 10 favorite action films. I will always remember this Supremacy scene. 


What is brilliant about this sequence is that they’re using their fists instead of guns.
How does Matt Damon make you believe he is Jason Bourne? Like a Mark Wahlberg movie, Damon transforms before our very eyes. Clearly the highly trained actor understands how to captivate his audience.  
In 2002, Matt Damon suffered his first identity crisis as Jason Bourne. His character had more passports and code-names than the President. What is more, Bourne Identity made a great first impression on moviegoers.

The third installment, Bourne Ultimatum, exceeded expectations at the box office by grossing over $440 million worldwide. Ultimatum is by far the trilogy’s highest grossing film. After its completion, Matt Damon entered Hollywood’s elite hall of entertainers.
Moreover, Mission: Impossible 3 showcases nothing but the best. Phillip Seymour Hoffman’s performance is legendary.


You can see how Tom Cruise and Hoffman feed off each other’s energy.
Because of their similarities, I suspect Tom Cruise influenced Matt Damon’s career. The Top Gun sends competition into Oblivion. However, unlike Damon Tom hasn’t won an Academy Award. The judges are out of touch. If the Academy is worth its weight in salt, Tom Cruise will eventually receive an Oscar.
I personally think Tom Cruise is one of the greatest action movie actors of all time. Additionally, I believe the Bourne franchise with Matt Damon sets the tone for the next generation of stars. In a nutshell, Matt Damon is a top action figure but Tom Cruise is best.

Academy Awards actresses Cameron Diaz Celebrities entertainers Entertainment Gone Girl Hollywood IMDB Movies Oscars Paparazzi producers Reese Witherspoon Richard Sherman TMZ Tom Cruise

Reese Witherspoon Vs. Cameron Diaz

BY: GURU JAY

Reese Witherspoon

Thespian Reese Witherspoon delivers terrific performances because she stretches her roles. There aren’t many actresses that possess Witherspoon’s talent level. Perpetrators imitate movie stars like Reese everyday to no avail.

The Louisiana slugger is a seasoned veteran who tackles obstacles like Richard Sherman. Sometimes Witherspoon stirs up trouble with her silver tongue mouth. TMZ released video footage of a drunken Reese talking back to police during a traffic stop.

Who decided to prop celebrities up on pedestals? All it takes is a single screw-up and their careers are severely damaged. Paparazzi cause so much destruction.

Luckily for Reese Witherspoon, bad publicity didn’t hurt her. Because the celebrity is a very important person she receives a pass. Who hasn’t seen a Witherspoon movie?

The ‘Gone Girl’ producer and ‘Legally Blonde’ actress appeared in her first film 25 years ago. She is worth at least $80 million. If you need a blockbuster, negotiate with Witherspoon.

Cameron Diaz

Cameron Diaz belongs in the best actress discussion. The adorable Diaz demonstrates massive appeal. Cameron’s down-to-earth nature and lighthearted persona are her best qualities.

Cameron’s doesn’t need validation from the Oscars. The celebrity is worth over $90 million. Who needs the Academy, when you’re on the Forbes list?

How can you talk about Diaz without acknowledging Tom Cruise? Movie stars Cameron and Cruise always shine brightest together. I love ‘Vanilla Sky’ largely because of Cameron’s involvement.

If you want an entertaining movie, visit Cameron’s IMDB profile for a complete list. Diaz doesn’t disappoint as far as entertainment. The creative performance artist paints masterpieces.

Aspiring celebrities should take note of Cameron’s style. She shows appreciation to fans. Finally, Cameron embraces her audience with virtual hugs and kisses.

Reese and Cameron have several similarities. They are both tremendously gifted celebrities. Witherspoon is the best actress. But Diaz is a better entertainer.
