Glee Project: Episode 9- Generosity

The last 4 contenders will perform My Chemical Romance's SING in the next episode of the GLee Project. I love the quality of Samuel's voice. I'm hoping Damian will stay. I hope Alex will be booted out next.

Glee Project:Episode 8-Believability

When I saw the teaser for Episode 7 (Sexuality),I really expected Cameron was the one who wanted to quit the show. The last episode showed that he was really conservative and uncomfortable with intimate scenes. I was a bit disappointed but I realized that perhaps he is more of a singer rather than an actor. His rendition of "Black Bird" was really nice. It was a good final song for him. I'm now rooting for Damian. Although right now, I think Hannah will emerge as the winner because Ryan once said that the winner was not the one you would normally expect to win. She's the underdog right now so i think she'll turn out to be the winner.

Here's Cameron singing "BLack Bird"


Next episode is about Believability. The final contenders will sing Paramore's "The Only Exception."

Glee Project Episode 6 and 7 Preview

Episode 6: Tenacity (Under Pressure/Ice Ice Baby)
I didn't expect Marissa to get booted out this week. But I'd rather see her go than Cameron. When you think about it...there are other pretty girls already in Glee so I don't think she can offer something new. Alex, on the other hand, stayed because of his talent. But in terms of attitude, I don't find him endearing or loveable.
Before this episode, I never thought that getting slushied was a big thing. But when I saw how the cast reacted, i thought it wasn't a nice thing to experience after all.
Damian looked cute in the video. Cameron acted his usually self of course...geeky! :)



Episode 7: Sexuality (Teenage Dream) Preview

Glee Project Episode 5

I think this is the best video in the PAIR-ABLITY episode. I think Lindsay and Cameron have the best voices in the show. I really cracked up when I saw Cameron's reaction after Lindsay kissed him. His expression was priceless.

Glee Project: Pair-Ability Preview

I can't wait for Monday to see episode 5!

Glee Project Episode 4

The people behind The Glee Project are really amazing! They always come up with great videos every week. Most of the contestants aren't good dancers but they managed to make the contestants' rendition of MC Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" enjoyable to watch!

The Glee Project

I just love watching The Glee Project right now. In fact, I prefer this one rather than the real show, GLEE! I first saw the cast members in the Today Show. My first impression was that they were sort of a group of misfits. I later realized that that was what the people behind the Glee Project was looking for. They wanted to cast someone who fit in a certain stereotype that other people can relate too.

Pinay Thia Megia in American Idol Season 10

The judges of American Idol seem really nice this season...They're so nice that it's getting boring for me...I still miss Simon. Good thing there's a Filipina, Thia Megia, who passed the auditions. I actually didn't like her audition. For me, she was trying too hard. I guess the judges were told that she was in America's Got Talent. ..that might have given her the additional points. It would be interesting to see her in the top 10. :)

American Idol Season 10

It's American Idol Season again! The first episode will start this evening and I'm wondering if I'm going to enjoy the show as much as when Simon and Paula were still part of the show. I'll probably watch its first few episodes to satisfy my curiousity...probably check out J Lo's outfits and bling! ha!ha! As for J Lo's criticisms, I'm not sure if I'm going to like it or not...I mean she doesn't have that powerful voice (compared to other singers) so for me, I don't think she has the right to give comments. I also hope another Fil-Am will make it to the Top 10 so that it would be more exciting to watch.

Charice in Glee

I first saw Charice Pempengco in a singing competition on ABS-CBN entitled Little Big Star. At that time, I was already amazed by her big voice. But like any other Filipino, I didn’t expect her to win because compared to the other competitors, her looks wasn’t celebrity material. In a country full of great singers, one has to stand out in the looks department to be noticed. The judges also thought that way too and so she was proclaimed 2^nd runner up. But lucky Charice was destined to be a star. Despite that particular setback, Korea’s Star King, Ellen DeGeneres, Oprah and David Foster saw the “star” in her. Her TV appearance in Ellen’s show led her to a series of TV guestings and concerts. She also was able to release her first international album already. Just this week, I watched her TV appearance in the first episode of GLEE: Season Two. I was never a fan of Glee. Charice is the only reason why I took the time to watched it. And although I was one of those people who thought that she wouldn’t be able to make it in showbiz before, I would have to eat my words now and say that she really is star on her own. And I’m so proud of her.

Major Major Happy For Venus Raj!

Days before the Miss Universe Coronation Night, I came across a website which listed the contestants who made it to the Top 15. I really thought that that was the Top15 already. So I was really surprised when I found out that Miss Philippines, Venus Raj, was a finalist! From the swimwear to the evening gown portion, I knew already that she was a standout. My mom even said that if Venus Raj would make it to the Top5, she had a good chance of winning the title.

But alas, nerves got into Venus Raj and she was not able to explain well her answer to the judges. One of the judges, William Baldwin, asked her about the biggest mistake that she made in her life and what she did to make it right. And she answered ""You know what, Sir in my 22 years of existence I can say that there is nothing major major, I mean, problem that I have done in my life. Because I am very confident with my family, with the love that they are giving to me. So, thank you so much that I am here, thank you thank you so much,"

Venus Raj's answer was okay for me but she could have said it better. I think Miss Mexico had an edge because she answered the question in her native language so she didn't have a hard time putting her thoughts into words. I bet if she tried to answer in english, she might have committed a "major major" boo-boo also.

Anyway, I'm still proud of Venus Raj. At least, she made the Miss Universe competition pretty interesting to watch this year. To be top 5 out of 83 contestants is a "major major" feat already. And even if she wasn't crowned as Miss Universe, at least, we can call her Miss Twitverse because she was the number 1 trending topic this morning in twitter worldwide and even her "major major" comment also landed in the top10.

I'm major major happy for you, Venus Raj!!!!!!!!!!!!

Miss Universe 2010: Venus Raj

If the winner for the upcoming Miss Universe pageant will be based on online voting only, our very own Miss Philippines, Venus Raj, will emerge as number 1. I visited the Miss Universe website today and found out that Venus has a score of 3.67 (4 stars). In fact, she's the only contestant who has a score of 3+. Filipinos really know how to show their support to their "kababayan"! ha!ha!

Kidding aside, Venus Raj, is really a standout. I've seen her pictures in the newspapers and online and I must say, she's got it! I just hope the judges also appreciate her beauty. I hope she enters the Top 10. It's not exciting to watch the pageant if your bet is not a finalist, right? :)

Simon Cowell's Blacklisted Songs

I had a good laugh awhile ago when I read this news in Reality Rocks about Simon Cowell's blacklisted songs in " The X Factor". I also noticed that in American Idol. There are certain songs that contestants like to sing over and over again during their audition. It would be nice if I won't hear songs like "And I'm telling you, I'm not going", " I don't want to miss a thing" or " Don't let the sun go down on me" again in this show. These songs could have been nice song choices during the earlier seasons but now they're too boring already!!!

Here are Simon's banned songs in "The X-factor":

Kings Of Leon - "Sex On Fire"
Jason Mraz - "I'm Yours"
Paolo Nutini - "Last Request"
Paolo Nutini - "New Shoes"
Eva Cassidy - "Songbird"
Snow Patrol - "Chasing Cars"

Addicted to Melason II

Melason really changed my internet life. I am what they call an official MELASOn fantard now! ha!ha! Instead of blogging, my free time is now spent on browsing the net for Melason news and videos.

I'm looking forward to the Big Night when either of them will be announced as the big winner. Hopefully I can resume my normal "blogging" life by then. :)

I found another cute fan-made music video featuring Nicole Hyala's MAHAL KITA KASI!

Addicted to Melason

It's been a long time since I last posted in this blog. It's because I've been following Pinoy Big Brother Double Up on TV, livestream and internet. For more almost 2 months, I've lost interest and time in blogging! ha!ha!

I've always been a fan Pinoy Big Brother. I usually watch the primetime episodes religiously during the first few weeks and then midway, I would lose interest (because I'd get irritated with the housemates) and then just watch the Big Night to see whoever wins.

But this time it's different. I think PBB Double Up is the best season ever! And I attribute it to 2 housemates who've really captured my heart, Melissa and Jason! (MELASON). These two housemates make a really funny tandem. Their story is about two simple people who met, became friends and eventually fell in love with each other. I'm looking forward to seeing them in the Big4. And the way things are going, it would be interesting to see them as a real couple outside the PBB house and also in showbiz too! :)

I really love the background music, Tanging Ikaw, by Aiza Seguerra. It makes me wanna fall in love too! :)

Ellen DeGeneres as 4th Judge in American Idol

I got depressed when I read the news that Paula Abdul didn't renew her contract in American Idol. I thought at that time nobody can replace her. But now I'm okay since my fave Ellen DeGeneres was chosen to be American Idol's 4th judge. Yipee!!! She's a fan of the show to the point that she always interviews not only the winner of the show but also the contestants that get booted out. She's super funny so I hope she'll be able to give out wacky, crazy but inspiring comments to the contestants.
