Being Julia Roberts

BY: GURU JAY

Who is the best actress? The name Julia Roberts answers that question. Throughout her storied career Julia Roberts has delivered iconic performances.
Let’s celebrate her filmography. She’s appeared in Academy Award winning titles seemingly as a hobby. Movie industry experts respect Roberts because she respects her profession.
Julia is highly trained and gifted. Critics come out the woodworks and write a review when she plays in a movie. Secret in Their Eyes saw enormous criticism (no pun intended) because it was deemed a “Julia Roberts” film. In other words, expectations are heightened and fears are lowered.
Ever since Pretty Woman, the beautiful actress has been expected to perform to perfection. Usually, Julia comes through on promises. She went from a promising career to a promised career.

Producers give her the star treatment. And the celebrity’s fans worship her. What woman, pretty or ugly, wouldn’t want to be Julia Roberts for a day.
Her niece Emma Roberts is extremely lucky. Julia seems like a genuine and kindhearted human being. You hardly ever hear about the celebrity body slamming Paparazzi. Maybe, she lets her bodyguard do the manual labor. That’s his job, right?
Being Julia Roberts entails major responsibilities. She’s a wife and mother of three. No, she doesn’t have three husbands although she could find two additional partners because her name is Julia Roberts. Check out the following video and you’ll see the perks of being Julia Roberts.

I’ve seen several of the passionate thespian’s films. I’m quite familiar with her filmography. My favorite Julia Roberts movie is The Pelican Brief. It is a well-written script. Plus, the acting is incredible.
Moreover, I recommend seeing Mona Lisa Smile, America’s Sweethearts, and Eat Pray Love. Finally, Erin Brockovich is an absolute must-see movie. Ironically, I believe The Pelican Brief prepared Julia for the Best Actress Oscar.

If you desire to become famous, follow Julia Robert’s footsteps. Sometimes you’ll stumble but falling is necessary in order to grow. Get back up, dust off your shoulders, and keep on going.

Why Reese Witherspoon Is In the Upper Echelon

BY: GURU JAY


Reese Witherspoon is one of Hollywood’s hottest actresses by design. She was destined for greatness. It was only a matter of time before her name would shine in big bright lights. The glowing Hollywood star can play the country girl or the city hipster.
I enjoy watching Reese Witherspoon because she desperately desires a second Oscar. Although she earned Best Actress 10 years ago for Walk the Line, the devoted actress is long overdue another one. Unfortunately, Hollywood has a political agenda.
The Awards committee is always trying to make a statement. It’s not about who’s the best anymore. It’s more about who serves their cause the most.
Reese Witherspoon deserved an Oscar for Wild. Despite continual unfairness, Reese takes losses like a champ. The Legally Blonde just makes another case for the Academy.

I highly recommend Mud starring Matthew McConaughey. Witherspoon is a fantastic supporting actress. She stirs up emotions like Grandma’s gumbo.
What’s her secret sauce? The mother of three can relate to her characters. She isn’t too far removed from reality.
Reese Witherspoon was one of Hollywood’s highest paid actresses for many years. In 2010, the gorgeous star earned a grand total of $32 million according to Forbes. She still commands a hefty salary because she is a producer and actor.

Studio executives recognize Reese’s star power too. In addition to name recognition, her face is instantly recognizable to millions around the world. Speaking of millions, the Richest estimate that the How Do You Know? actor’s net worth is $80 million. That’s a lot of cheddar considering the cost of living in Hollywood is sky high.
Fortunately, Reese Witherspoon isn’t splurging on nonsensical and nonessential material goods. She seems to have a good head on her shoulders. Hopefully the mature actress can knock some sense into these newbies.
It’s difficult living large like a celebrity. You need to watch your business manager, accountant, lawyer, and doctor with suspicion. Don’t trust anybody but your mother. Reese Witherspoon is in the upper echelon because she’s smart. Plus, she chose great movies to star in and is an expert performer. The stunning beauty is absolutely amazing.

Why Anna Faris Is Scarce

BY: GURU JAY


Anna Faris carved her career path with a machete. She started professionally acting in Hollywood after auditioning for Scary Movie. In fact, Scary Movie was her very first audition.
Actors deal with rejection on a regular basis. Moreover, an actress rarely receives a callback after only one audition. That’s why Anna Farris is scarce.
Celebrities must subscribe to the foot in the door strategy. I call this the Hollywood Hokey Pokey. “You put you’re right foot in, you take you’re right foot out, you do the Hokey Pokey and you turn yourself around and that’s what it’s all about.” Becoming famous like Anna Faris simply involves taking steps toward your goals.
Although Anna Faris was born in Baltimore, Maryland, she was raised in a small town near Seattle, Washington. Eventually, Anna arrived at Tinseltown with a dream.

Showbiz provides abundant opportunities, although the likelihood of someone striking riches is slim. Luckily Anna disregarded the statistics and overcame the odds. The actress possesses a burning passion for theatre.
This thespian’s skills are underestimated. She can play comedic roles and serious parts. Farris deserves recognition for her performance in Brokeback Mountain.
She is known for making you laugh and cry like Kate Hudsonby playing stereotypical roles such as the amazingly attractive but dumb blonde. In reality, Anna Faris is a bright brunette. Locking down husband Chris Pratt was a smart decision. It goes both ways because Pratt is fortunate to have married the sweet and kind Hollywood actress. Additionally, she is a good reason why he’s such a hot commodity.

Girls like Anna Faris are scarce. Right now she is probably in the kitchen cooking a Rachael Ray recipe and rehearsing lines with Chris. The celebrity likely has Martha Stewart’s phone number on speed dial. The House Bunny runs her home efficiently. Anna is a good wife and mother.
If you’re an aspiring actress, entertainer, or celebrity learn your lesson from Anna Faris. She is confident in her techniques but she isn’t smug. And she’s always ready for her close-up.

Why Jackie Chan Is Still Incredible

BY: GURU JAY

Don’t you love Jackie Chan? Forbes reported Jackie Chan earned $50 million over the course of last year. He is the #2 highest paid actor, right after Robert Downey, JR.
Chan is not only a martial arts master but also a movie legend. Numbers don’t lie. And Jackie Chan’s record at the box office is incredible.
He belongs to China, Asia, and the world. According to iconic comedian Chris Tucker, Jackie owns half of China (of course, that’s an exaggeration). Still, this is a testament to his superior intellect.
When you make tons of cash, make sure to invest your bucks into prime investments. The Rush Hour movie star proves you can be both rich and famous simultaneously. Without question, over the years his acting has improved dramatically (pun intended).

Maybe, he may have lost some physical strength due to aging, but his mental strength is much better. Jackie Chan is a wise man. He’s learnt how to master his weaknesses.
The celebrity doesn’t care about being made fun of for his command of the English tongue. Like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jackie Chan is determined to succeed. When you possess an unbreakable mentality, you can obtain unthinkable outcomes.
Did you know he mentored Maggie Q? He showed her the ropes. And he encouraged her to perform her own stunts when she was just a model. That’s why the Nikita TV show appeared almost real.

It goes without saying Jackie Chan and Jet Li are thick as glue. I’ve seen several Chan movies. I believe he is one of the best actors in show business.
Few have his willpower and mastery. What is more, he doesn’t publicly seek admiration; but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t deserve countless accolades. Jackie Chan is still incredible.

Check out this amazing Jackie Chan fan-made video tribute I discovered. It is a YouTube treasure.

Who’s Wilder And Crazier Than Russell Brand?

BY: GURU JAY

  
It’s never too early or too late to start doing standup comedy. Fans expect comics to come on stage and tell hilarious stories. Who tells wilder and crazier stories than Russell Brand?
Although he’s a fun and playful celebrity, there is also a serious side to the man. Russell Brand is waging war against income inequality. As an activist, he is outspoken about wage slavery.
Taking a stance against powerful corporations is extremely risky. Then again, Russell Brand doesn’t mind losing out. And that’s why he’s a winner.
Russell raises eyebrows and drops jaws, because he’ll say what he feels like saying. He isn’t filtering his word choices like most celebrities. While many celebs commonly erase their Tweets, Brand hardly hits the delete button.

An authentic comedian won’t apologize for anything or to anyone. Russell Brand is a celeb with balls. He wears his hair long. He dons a full beard. This is symbolic to how Russell lives his life- to the fullest.
People are fond of him because he’s hosted TV shows, acted in movies, and performed on stage. You should consider watching Get Him to the Greek.
Russell Brand can make you comfortable and uncomfortable in a matter of minutes. He regularly challenges the status quo. What great comedian is politically correct? It’s the comic’s duty to get under people’s skin.
I admire Brand’s style and delivery. He doesn’t give it to you all at once. Joke by joke, sketch by sketch, the great Brit takes spectators on a trip.
You see Russell Brand thrives on controversy. That’s why he means everything to the comedy world. He is someone who bridges gaps.

His intellect allows him to relate to a range of mentalities. You know it is important to widen your scope. I look forward to the comedic actor’s movies because of his uniqueness.
You won’t find a wilder and crazier jokester.

Beyoncé Celeb News Celebrity Gossip Celebs Destiny's Child Entertainment Erykah Badu Guru Jay Hip Hop Hollywood Stars Kelly Rowland Music Platinum Records Reunion Tour Showbiz Singers Solange Knowles

What If Solange Knowles Goes On Tour With Destiny’s Child?

BY: GURU JAY

  
I grew up on Destiny’s Child (pun intended). Beyoncé, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams were the premiere music group of their time. Who remembers when I’m A Survivor played on the radio non-stop?
Moreover, Destiny’s Child is responsible for adding words to our vocabulary such as Bootylicious. I bet Beyoncé and the girls unintentionally recruited for the Army with their Soldier song. Who recalls in that video Solange Knowles was pregnant?
Solange is an unofficial Destiny’s Child member. For years, many fans anticipated Solange to officially join the group. Right now is the perfect time for Destiny’s Child to reunite for a tour. Why not include Solange in the mix?
Let me explain my reasons. First, Beyoncé could use it for her legacy. Second, Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams could use publicity. Lastly, Solange could use the tour to launch a future album.

Didn’t Beyoncé use Destiny’s Child as a launching pad? Can you imagine how fans would respond? This is a winning proposition.
As a marketing practitioner, this would be your dream. In the words of Kelly Clarkson, “some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this.”
Destiny’s child deserves an induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Additionally, Solange Knowles deserves a Grammy. But to earn one, she needs a chance.
Let Solange seize the opportunity before it’s too late. We’ve witnessed many entertainers fall into traps. All too often, singers are held back because record labels won’t put money up for their promotions. Some movie producers are guilty of cutting corners and slicing budgets.
Solange is a unique artist similar to Erykah Badu. I like her style. She’s free.

She should debut a new album soon. I believe the talented singer could go platinum if somehow she joined Destiny’s Child for a reunion tour.

Why There Is No One Like Alicia Keys

BY: GURU JAY

  
No One, Like You Never See Me Again, and Unthinkable are my favorite Alicia Keys songs. When I want to slow it down, I listen to Alicia’s music. I believe she’s a modern day Roberta Flack and Gladys Knight.
Do you love her new braids? The Doesn’t Mean Anythingsinger doesn’t mind throwing it back. Isn’t she wonderful? Did you know she’s part Italian?
Some people compare her to Beyoncé and Mariah Carey. However, she should be recognized for her uniqueness. Acknowledge this amazing music artist on her own merits. 
First, the mother of two nurtures her crowds. The celebrity cares deeply about humanity. That’s why whenever she accepts an award she raises awareness about pressing issues.

Secondly, she writes the best lyrics in the music business. In addition, Alicia’s melodies are catchy. Fans know that it’s nearly impossible getting her songs out of your head.
For the record, I’ve been an Alicia Keys supporter forever. You Don’t Know My Name, Fallin‘, and If I Ain’t Got You were my jams back in the day. The singer is especially poetic.
Third, she sings with purpose. She strives to shine her light. These days the world is very dark. Alicia Keys is a bright spot on the map.

The sweetheart gives hope. You know it’s about to get good when Keys sits at that piano. There is no one like Alicia Keys. She is the crème de la crème.
Finally, I appreciate her softness and diligence. Her pitch and tone are pleasing to the ears. She is not a bad actress either. Like singer/actress Lena Horne she’s got rhythm.
I wonder if Mya and Ashanti would mind opening for Alicia Keys. What if the three of them formed a music group? From New York to Japan, fans love attending Alicia’s concerts.
Nothing compares to Alicia Keys at her finest.
