You know you loved him too

Back in the more simple time of 1986, I had a Michael Jackson wallet and an MJ microphone. Yep, I was a huge fan. HUGE. My first record (wow that makes me feel old) was Thriller and from that point on I followed along the same path that so many others did, even though now some deny it, but face it, about 90% of us loved him and his songs.

These days its a different story. Who the hell knows anymore. Did he? Didn't he? It really doesn't matter anymore because he is forever tainted in our minds. Sure there are still diehards out there and I give them credit for sticking with him, but I am just not so sure about the whole thing.

Anyways, all that said, I read this on WENN today:

"Michael Jackson has recruited troubled R&B star R. Kelly to perform on his charity single for America's hurricane victims."

Umm, does anyone else see how this may not be the best selection for Michael right now? I mean of all singers, lets pick the one who is facing child pornography charges, no one will think a thing of that.

In other news, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard were spotted lunching at a cafe two blocks from my apartment this past weekend. All I can say is, thank God Jake wasn't there or else I would be severly devasted that I was that close to him and didn't know it. I can't wait for the dreams to be had after seeing Jarhead.

I saw In Her Shoes this past weekend and it was much better than I thought it would be. I personally find Cameron Diaz really annoying, but she worked in her role here as the slutty, bitch sister. I recommend seeing it with your sister or your mom. Good Times.

By far the best review of the weekend was Movin' Out. Good lord that was one hell of a production! By far it was the best Broadway show I have seen to date. Twlya Tharp's choreography is amazing and the performers just blow you away. I didn't want it to end. If you haven't seen it, GO- because it closes on December 11th of this year.

Another movie that looks super good is the latest from Woody Allen called Match Point. It is pretty Closer-esque, but still very intriguing.
