Expressed Words, A Statement On Fashion, Writers’ Strike, Met Gala

Expressed Words: A Statement on Fashion, Writers’ Strike, Met Gala

Photo By: Danilo Lauria

With the Met Gala wrapped up, we have now seen some of the best celebrities showcase their fashion. If you’re into clothing and accessories this show was all you wanted to see and more. Did you receive the chance to watch the red-carpet arrivals?

Seeing celebrities arrive to their destinations and knowing that they’re in tip top condition brought me joy. I was happy because of how many of my favorite celebrities showed up at the Gala. They were there to make bold fashion statements.

After I saw highlights from the Met Gala, I was inspired to blog about fashion. I wanted to make an original post that would appeal for a long time. The Gala came and gone two days ago, yet it was still a trend on Twitter as of May 3.

Who was the best dressed Hollywood star in your opinion? Did you see what Kim Kardashian was wearing? It had everybody talking; people compared the look to her 2007 Instagram photo. Also, her sister Kendall Jenner allegedly wore an edgy skintight dress to the after party and caused a scene.

The main news of the day though was not fashion. The Writers’ Strike in Hollywood was trending too because serious issues need fixing. Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, and Stephen Colbert were off the air until further notice due to the grievances. After hearing the news, as a writer, I empathized with those in the business trying to make a living.

If you asked me, I think profit sharing by writers with corporations, streaming services, and platforms could work for both sides. Who would think ten years ago that big business would try to replace writers on such a high scale?

But the Met Gala demonstrated that money is still made in fashion and by celebrities. The entertainment industry banked on the backs of Hollywood stars for years, who are the next expendable pieces in my opinion. Did artificial intelligence replace actors’ images and likenesses yet? What were the copyright infringements?

The more than 11,000 striking writers provide valid points. So far, Microsoft has invested $13 billion into OpenAI, an artificial intelligence model. What good did this do for artists whose work were infringed upon because the model is not thinking in the sense of how we think as humans?

These were expressed words and a fashion statement. The big fish to fry was not a whale but a leviathan. Entertainment used to come easy to us as a society, but times have changed. You bought tickets to a movie, saw it once or twice in theaters, and never admitted to crying because of a Romantic Comedy (Romcom) scene. Even though we knew you cried, we didn’t tell anyone.

Nowadays, the biggest stars in movies, music, and television had to attend the Met Gala to stay relevant. All their jobs were on the line because the situation with work was complicated. I thought Janelle Monae wore it well and Jared Leto went over the top. And I knew what Doja Cat was thinking, looking like a feline.

Without naming any names, did some of the attendees have to go to such extremes to get noticed? Did the fashion designers put the button on or push it too hard?

On my blog, I didn’t want to make the Met Gala or the writer’s strikes competitions. Expressing words on the strike and making a bold statement on fashion about the Met Gala seemed like the right thing to do. I’ve discovered when given an opportunity to shine, a star will seize the day. I supported the writers and the celebrities because they needed and deserved it.

Zendaya Is a Top 5 Actress Under 30

Zendaya Is a Top 5 Actress Under 30

In the morning the sun comes up and the rays touch the skin, the grass, and the flowers. Stars shine like they’re supposed to at night. Happiness spreads throughout the air. This spring we will enjoy each moment. 

I like to see the stars shine. Zendaya is a superstar. When Beyoncé comes on the radio, I think about the Versace on the Floor model and actress. Does she need to wear a golden dress to delight? I don’t think it’s necessary to gain the right attention. 

Zendaya Delights All Day and Night Long

Give Zendaya some credit. She’s been in show business for such a long time and is still hard at work. In fact, she delights all day and night long. What is more, she calls the shots.

The entertainment industry appears vast but in actuality it’s a small world. For instance, did you know the same man behind Euphoria is behind Malcolm & Marie? I highly recommend both productions.

Euphoria is so popular and made my list of top 10 TV shows to stream. Zendaya brings so much to the table. She’s classy and picture perfect. Are you an Euphoria fan? What do you like about the TV series?

You may have come to know the superstar through fashion. When she wears any kind of gown, it seems to sparkle no matter what. Thanks to having a good team on her side, she can make fashion statements.

I’ve been following this celebrity for years and can say she’s nothing short of amazing. It impresses me how she deals with the media. Without question, the Spiderman love interest is taking on the World Wide Web haters. Her relationship with Tom Holland seems to be real. You can only wish them the best. 

Where would you put her in Hollywood’s top 30 actresses under 30? Is she easily a top 10 on your list? She’s in my top five right now. 

I feel like she deserves more recognition. On the one hand, the celebrity dominates television receiving one of the highest paydays in the business. On the other hand, the actress is not receiving big money from the big screen. Of course, such a beauty is heavily endorsed by corporate sponsorships. But pay equity for Black women in Hollywood has a long way to go.

Actors have to jump over hurdles and often sprint when in reality the whole thing is a marathon. They must compete against each other, which is unfair. Zendaya is someone who’s worked hard and overcame obstacles. Like a professional athlete, she’s well conditioned and can endure the challenges in front of her. I’m looking forward to her upcoming movie Challengers. 

Born in Oakland California on September 1, 1996 Zendaya was made for this. By this, I mean everything entertainment and more. She’s not only won two Emmys but a Golden Globe as well. She delights in nearly every speech she gives. Every time she arrives on the red carpet jaws drop and heads turn. Some draw comparisons of Zendaya to Halle Berry

To be blunt, beauty is her name. The great thing about her is that she’s gotten off to a great start. Her youth is an asset in the entertainment industry. 

With 174 million Instagram followers, Zendaya appeals to a massive audience. What is more, in  addition to making movies, she makes moves. Whoever photographs the superstar deserves a raise. The pleasant celebrity has been on everybody’s radar for a while. In 2016, Forbes named her to the 30 under 30 list.

Expect a world of possibilities from Zendaya because she’s just getting started. In closing, the celebrity represents success and her story is a joy to watch. Remember to enjoy each moment like a celebrity.

Paris Hilton and the Law of Attraction: How to Handle Fame

Paris Hilton and the Law of Attraction

There’s so much chaos and we’re all in different head spaces. What if we could all be on one accord?

I believe there are laws in the universe that govern beyond society. The Law of Attraction is a popular belief shared inside celebrity circles. In this blog post, I will discuss the Law of Attraction and Paris Hilton. 

Visit verywellmind.com to find out more information about The Law. To sum up The Law, our thoughts create our outcomes. So, what we attract is what we think about on a constant basis. Therefore, it is important to have positive thoughts over negative thoughts.

The Simple Life

I blog about movies, music, and TV. Today, I’ll blog about Paris Hilton, who is a reality TV icon. She’s built and rebuilt a durable brand over a span of time that is respectable. Who remembers her Reality TV Show The Simple Life?

What’s the first thing that comes to your mind when I mention Paris Hilton? Maybe, you think about a socialite, model, celebrity, brand, or DJ. Hilton is all those things and more.

I believe this socialite used The Law of Attraction to succeed in life. How else do you explain all her accolades? She is still going strong in the entertainment industry as a celebrity and brand. People feed off of name recognition and the model now gives food for thought. 

The socialite explains how she’s extremely shy in her recent interviews and new memoir. It would be interesting to read her full story. Something tells me she dives deeper than she’s ever dived before in the memoir and reveals her truth. 

How to Handle Fame

Did you know that she reportedly only inherited $5 million? Most of her wealth comes from her working as a celebrity. Would you like to connect with the star?

Isn’t it ironic that the model’s character in The Simple Life is a complex character she created? But everybody loved going to Hollywood parties with her because of this persona. It makes you wonder how much you really know about celebrities, in particular their personalities.

There were 56 episodes of The Simple Life. The first episode aired in 2003 on FOX. It became a crucial shift in television. 


For the first time, people were seeing how others lived. There was less division and more unity. Maybe, producers can remake The Simple Life 20 years later.

Take your mind to a peaceful place. Let’s begin with a walk on the beach. So far it’s peaceful. The waves won’t overtake us. 

Are you into beach clubs? Later, you’re going to attend a party hosted by Paris Hilton. But right now, you’re barefooted and making footprints in the sand. In truth, you don’t know how the day will play out but you thank God you’re still breathing and alive.

Paris Hilton will also be DJing at the party. They say she makes $1 million per night. Her skills will assure you’re gonna have a good time. At first, you walk slowly and take one step at a time. For some reason, the waves have been peculiar. 

You think to yourself: I’m invited and that’s the main thing. You’ve arrived at the party. You’re now part of the crowd. Throughout the day, good things happened because you thought about good things happening. The walk was successful. 

In another blog post, I wrote about 7 celebrity success stories and how the road is often bumpy.

The key is to keep your drive in full gear. Don’t worry about the potholes or construction; just keep driving. Like Lady Gaga and Jennifer Lopez, Paris Hilton makes it all seem effortless. And her name rings a bell, because she put the work in and played her cards right.

The Oscars 95 Recap: The Year of The Big Picture

The Oscars 95 Recap: The Year of The Big Picture

Let’s recap the night in this blog post. The night began with the Oscars 95 host Jimmy Kimmel parachuting from the ceiling. And the crowd gave their first applause inside the Dolby Theatre. 

Who do you think came up with that idea? It was an enjoyable moment for the live crowd and the at home audience. After taking off his parachute, Kimmel started doing what he does best…telling jokes. The comedian was full of them.

Avatar: The Way of Water director James Cameron and Top Gun: Maverick lead actor Tom Cruise were absent at The 95th Oscars and Kimmel joked about it. Does the comedian have a point? He said Cameron did not attend because he wasn’t nominated for Directing. Also the comedian mentioned the director’s marriages and box office receipts.

Dwayne Johnson and Emily Blunt gave Guillermo Del Toro the first Oscar for his Pinocchio. His acceptance speech was full of passion as he thanked his wife and lastly his parents. At the last Oscars, Ariana DeBose won for her role in West Side Story and Troy Kostur won for his role in Coda. Next, DeBose and Kostur would hand Ke Huy Quan and Jamie Lee Curtis awards for their supporting roles. When was the last time the same movie (Everything Everywhere All At Once) won both best supporting roles? 

Everything Everywhere All At Once took home a total of seven Oscars. It’s safe to say the film owned the night. I’ve watched a lot of Academy Awards in my day and haven’t seen a night quite like this one in a long time. You could feel the energy at Dolby Theatre.

Did you enjoy the presentation? The slate of presenters were some of the biggest celebrities. There were tons of stars. If you love entertainment, you were impressed last night. Leading up to the event, the celebs arrived on the red carpet which was painted a champagne color this year.

Tom Cruise may not have made an appearance at the Academy Awards this time, but he did attend the Oscars nominees luncheon. He shared a great moment with Austin Butler at that event. I posed the question: do you want Austin Butler to win Best Actor for his performance in Elvis? Fans overwhelmingly answered yes, they wanted him to win. Later, I’ll discuss who won.

Have you heard about the Vanity Fair Oscars After Party? From the beginning of awards season to the end of the afterparty Everything Everywhere All At Once made their presence known. Michele Yeoh made history by becoming the first Asian actress to win a Best Actress Academy Award.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQcQrFkBSuQ

It’s been 21 years since a woman of color won an award in this category. She took the moment and gave a terrific speech about how one never truly peaks as long as one keeps going. Everything Everywhere All At Once went on to win Best Original Screenplay and Best Directing as well. Check out complete winners list here.

Once again, you could feel the energy. In addition, music filled the air and everybody was in harmony. Lady Gaga touched the crowd with her Hold My Hand from the Top Gun: Maverick soundtrack. Then, Rihanna uplifted everybody with Lift Me Up from Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Lastly, Lenny Kravitz sang Calling All Angels from his 2004 Baptism album to honor the lost stars.

There wasn’t too much commotion or many surprises except Brendan Fraser winning Best Actor for The Whale. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvbPC_3XY48

The final applause of the night inside Dolby Theatre went to Best Picture winner Everything Everywhere All At Once. It was not only a night to remember but an award season to remember. The Golden Globes, the Grammys, the SAG Awards all told similar stories. In the end, it’s all about the big picture. Follow me on Twitter @IamGuruJay. Thank you!

Young Hollywood Star Jenna Ortega Is Beautiful But “Horrific”

Young Hollywood Star Jenna Ortega Is Beautiful But “Horrific”

Young Hollywood star Jenna Ortega is beautiful but acts horrific. Read that previous sentence again if needed. This 20-year-old needs a check, and by check, I mean a paycheck for her acting abilities, because she is gifted in filming horror productions.

Did you know she played Young Jane in Jane the Virgin? So, she is well connected with ties to Gina Rodriguez. Could you imagine her working with Gomez and Rodriguez soon? She’s already worked with Demi Lovato on Twitter. One thing I learned is that anything can happen in Hollywood.

Ortega has been acting since the age of nine. Like Selena Gomez, the celebrity rose to fame as a child actress. I discovered you can connect the dots and arrive at any given point if you know what you’re looking for in the matrix. In entertainment, celebrities are stars that emit light to the planet. LET THE STARS SHINE. Unfortunately, universal truths are mistaken as myths sometimes.

Directors dream of having this actress in their movies and TV series. Whatever the project, expect light to shine and greatness to exude from this one. Coming to theaters on March 10, 2023, Scream VI will have you screaming. A large part of your pulse rate jumping is Jenna Ortega. What can you expect from her character in the film?

Are You Scared of Masked Men?

What does this official trailer tell you about the movie industry? Isn’t film an art, so Ortega’s an artist? I’m not a huge fan of horror movies, but I believe Scream VI might be worth watching. In the official trailer, we get a glimpse of Ortega’s artistry. As an actress (thanks to the video editor) she’s demonstrated to you within a couple of minutes why you should buy a ticket and/or watch the film.

Stardom

If you won’t watch Scream VI, will you watch her other work? Wednesday is less intense but still has an element of horror. Have you noticed horror as a theme? Jimmy Fallon suggested the star’s type casted in horror films. What do you think?

Well, she brings a smile to my face. And the young Hollywood star is beautiful but “horrific.” I don’t know what to do, OK! Is it all right to say she brings joy to the day but also brings out the dark side? Who do we blame for this dilemma? Certainly, it’s not Ortega’s fault that she’s so beautifully horrific. She’s beautiful but horrific and that’s terrific. At least, she’s not horrible or terrible.

Would You Like to Dance?

Let’s dance. The celeb shows her creativity with a dance out of this world in Netflix’s Wednesday. It’s reminding me of a Jennifer Lopez dance back in the day. The star seems like a lot of fun. Does the dance bring a smile to your face?

Check out this cool article and come back here and finish reading. Technically, though from my understanding, the celebrity is already in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as White Tiger. The following article explains what you need to know about her character which first appeared in Iron Man 3.

I would like to see the young Hollywood star receive the opportunity of starring in a superhero film franchise like Elizabeth Olsen. Disney+, Marvel, Netflix, DC, Warner Bros., make it happen. There are more than enough superhero characters for the celeb to enter the Comic Con. Did you know she attended New York Comic Con and signed autographs for fans? Can you visualize Jenna Ortega in San Diego signing autographs?

Beautiful Elizabeth Olsen Is One of Hollywood’s Finest Actresses

Beautiful Elizabeth Olsen is one of Hollywood’s finest actresses

Why are you here reading this blog? Perhaps, you like celebrities, entertainment, and information all intertwined. Maybe, you can’t get enough of celebrity blogs and entertainment. I try to entertain you as well as inform you. Regardless, I appreciate you coming here. Thanks for reading and if you’re compelled to, please share my content. You can follow my Twitter handle @IamGuruJay too. 

Eureka! I found out why you’re here… for WandaVision, Dr. Strange, and the Avengers. Her most recent box office movie, Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, broke all kinds of records. 

Super-fan of Superhero

So, I get it…you’re an Elizabeth Olsen super-fan and you want to find out what’s going on with the star who plays one of your favorite superheroes.

You’re so amazed by her performances as Scarlet Witch in WandaVision and Dr. Strange. Like Olsen herself, WandaVision is such a huge success. This is one of Disney +’s best productions. In nine episodes to date, the actress plays an incredible Wanda Maximoff on television. Fans like you can’t wait for more seasons. They’re asking Disney a fair question; what’s taking so long? Just be patient, Disney says. 

Also, did you know that the actress’s superhero character is connected to Jonathan MajorsAnt-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania? It appears they are both Nexus Beings in the MCU. This gives fans some substance to digest. Expect the Marvel terminology “Nexus Being” to trend sometime in the future. There are so many places to go with this.

Like Elle Fanning (Dakota Fanning), Elizabeth Olsen has a famous sister or two. Famous twins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen were on Full House in the 1990s. Who remembers the young actresses and their taglines? The younger sister, who’s not a twin, built a name for herself as well. And today, it’s her birthday. Let’s go on social media and wish her a happy birthday. I’m sure she’ll appreciate the kind thoughts and gestures.  

Also, today the trailer for Love & Death, an HBO Max Original was released.

https://youtu.be/AvVyz1k2B6M

This looks like something that will have people talking. Once again, HBO has generated controversy and we know that is what sells. From what I’ve researched, there are three episodes premiering on April 27. Then, the network will air three or four more episodes of the limited series one at a time weekly. 

Also, like Elle Fanning, Olsen has no problem being called great. She is great. Her greatness shows up on screen as one of Hollywood’s finest actresses. Why aren’t you streaming this actress yet if you haven’t already?

Finally, the beautiful actress is like another actress associated with Hulu (who I can’t get enough of) Hilary Duff. It seems like Hollywood’s full of so many talented acts. Does Disney have possession of all of them?

Outside of Marvel, the star has filmed a variety of productions. Have you seen her performance with Aubrey Plaza in Ingrid Goes West? 

I’ve wanted to write this article for a long time. I believe the beautiful Elizabeth Olsen is one of Hollywood’s finest actresses. If you follow my blog, you know I’m a superhero fan and I enjoy watching actresses like Jennifer Lawrence and Elizabeth Olsen perform on screen. One day I could see myself on set as a screenwriter or consulting producer. That’s my dream. So, I’ll speak it into existence.

 “California’s calling my name.” Have you heard that song before? To be frank, Elizabeth Olsen’s a big name in Hollywood like Bella Thorne. She’s a celebrity who provides you premium entertainment. Whether on HBO Max, Disney +, Netflix or any other streaming platform, this celebrity is someone I’m watching for years to come.

Selena Gomez Is in the Building So Calm Down Now.

Selena Gomez Is in the Building So Calm Down Now.

Selena Gomez is in the building so calm down now. Stop worrying about the small stuff and take time for yourself to read a good blog. Maybe, even check out a very good one by some standards. I blog about the best of the best in entertainment. If you like celebrities, you came to the perfect place.

Let’s get the cat out of the bag. I am attracted to Selena Gomez. She’s my cup of tea. Now that I got that out the way, I’ll try to compose myself and write an entertaining and informative post.

Contrary to popular opinion, I know celebrities are people too. So, I won’t say she can do no wrong and fly spaceships. Like me, everybody makes mistakes sometimes. But there’s so much to admire about Selena Gomez. I’m older than the celebrity but I grew up understanding her rise to fame from the Disney days. Mostly, I appreciate her music and personality. 

I’ve listened to the My Mind & Me record, but I haven’t watched the Apple TV+ documentary. Her openness is a strength, not a weakness. The celebrity shows the soft and rough sides of her life and that deserves some respect. 

Also, I’m now more familiar with her TV work. No, not Barney & Friends. Although I did watch it as a child, I’m referring to none other than Only Murders in the Building. I will discuss this TV show in this space. In one word: brilliant. That’s the way I describe Only Murders in the Building.

Original Content

If you’re into mysteries, this show will get you going. I not only strive to create original content, but I also seek out original content. This Hulu original like another isn’t going anywhere anytime soon except straight to the top of streaming. 

Right now, the filming of season 3 is in progress and some big names have been added. Jesse Williams from Grey’s Anatomy and Meryl Streep will make appearances. How do I know? Well, I follow Selena Gomez on Twitter. Best decision in a while. 

Hulu has twenty episodes of the show available for streaming. There are two seasons so far at ten episodes apiece. There is Steve Martin, Martin Short, and Selena Gomez not only starring in the TV program but executive producing. There’s so much talent on the show, the rumor is they got audited last year. Okay, I made that up. But you get my drift. 

So exactly, what is OMITB all about? Three people bond over the same mystery podcast. Ultimately, it’s about a podcast stemming from another podcast. A podcast spinoff. Ha ha! Together, they try to solve only murders in their building. It’s quite creative. 

Currently, I’m watching season 1 and will be watching season 2 soon. But first, I must calm down because I’m so excited. Her new song with Rema called Calm Down is a hit. Have you seen the music video? The video premiered on September 7, 2022.

Social Media

According to YouTube data, the video is now number nine globally. With an international reach, the singer/ actress/ producer is only getting the ball rolling down the lane. And she’s not staying in the lane. She’s running the streets and making money moves. 

Lately, Selena Gomez is trending on Twitter and the Internet. Whoever is writing some of these (gossip) stories need to stop. It all seems manufactured. Society must do better. My goal is to stay positive no matter how negative it gets.

Selena Gomez is the best of the best in entertainment. Although she is not perfect, she’s in the perfect place…no, not in New York…in the building.
