It Isn't Sunny Without Sonny Monroe
Disney without Demi Lovato is like a diet milkshake with no whipped cream on top… unfavorable and unsatisfying. Since choosing to leave her Disney show Sonny With A Chance, Demi Lovato has been MIA in the acting scheme of things. Recently Demi released a new single titled “Skyscaper,” which became number one on iTunes and was covered on Youtube by admirers and fans including fellow...

When All Else Fails... Watch Akeelah and the Bee
Akeelah and the Bee is inspiring. Every so often, I slip the DVD into the player and watch it for a sort-of movie pick me up. Why Starbucks has not been involved in making other movies is beyond me; Akeelah and the Bee deserves three and a half stars.
Keke Palmer plays the role of Akeelah, a young girl with a knack for spelling who at first lacks the confidence and support to make her dreams of...

Charice’s New Album Too Pop-ish?
I think Charice is gifted. Her voice is strong, magical, and easy to listen to. She brings emotion and intensity to every song she sings … so you can imagine my anticipation of her new album Before it Explodes. I was excited to see Charice commit to a full pop album with fast tempo beats rather than the slow ballads that monopolize her debut. However, except for the song “Before it...

Soul Surfer
Starring: AnnaSophia Robb, Dennis Quaid, Helen Hunt, Carrie Underwood, Ross Thomas, and Lorraine Nicholson.
I went to see this film in theaters with my family. Bottom line: Soul Surfer is an inspirational movie. It was directed beautifully by Sean McNamara and well acted. The tragic scenes were not overbearing and the overall film was not depressing. I...

My Heart Flipped For Flipped

There aren’t words to describe how much I enjoyed this movie.
Based off the novel “Flipped” by Wendelin Van Draanen, the movie tells the story of Bryce (Callan McAuliffe) and Juli (Madeline Carroll), next door neighbors who are worlds apart. Even though the film is humorous and amusing, it questions deeper concepts like the true meaning of...

Maturity de Moda
It is refreshing to see an actress who signals her being an adult through behaving as one.
Magazine covers and Internet websites are oversaturated with risqué photographs and video footage of actresses who announced their adulthood through performing suggestive poses or donning scanty outfits. I was always perturbed by the media’s persistence to equate mature femininity with more-skin exposure,...
