Are We Trippin?

Usher

It had to happen one day. Our little Usher had to get older and put his grown man on. So why are we so up in arms? Okay, so it’s pretty obvious that Usher has a thing for older women (Can’t forget about Chilli). Yes, there are some issues concerning his fiancee’s divorce and 3 kids, and let’s not even mention the firing of his momanger, Jonetta. But are we making too big of a deal out of his choice of mate, Tameka Foster? I find it very interesting that we’re often angry with men, especially the ones in entertainment, for choosing women that, uh, look a certain way. Yet, now that one of the most famous, eligible bachelors is being taken off the market by someone average-looking, we have a problem with that, too. This should give more hope to other average women. We have to make up our minds, ladies.

‘Boring’ Idol

Jordin

Who didn’t know Jordin was gonna win? Any other season, I would only catch the last five or so episodes but this year, I decided “What the heck? I’ll watch the whole season. After the finale, I have to admit I feel like I wasted my time. Like, I should have watched the other seasons, instead. It was as if the producers, I mean the audience, :-) voted some people off too soon. The result was a predictable finale. The only spontaneity on the show this season came from an amateur kid named Sanjaya. Tighten up, Idol! You’re slipping.
