Bachelorette, 06142010

What is it with the Bachelorette that draws us to it week after week??? The search for love, the drama or to see a cheap shot between the guys? It is all of the above!!! I thought the guys do not bicker like women. They are worst!! For one thing it seems they are also very emotional like women!! I am sooo surprised to see many men shed tears!!!! See what I mean? We are drawn to these kind of things that these men shows which means that they are not immune to what all the ordinary people feel in ordinary life!!! Well, they are all ordinary people too. What I mean is... since they are in the limelight, they might control their emotions a little! If they do, then they will not be true to themselves which will not be good to Ali!!! That means their true self was not exposed to her in this reality game! Do you think that after knowing someone for only a few months that you will know the true heart and soul of someone??? I do not think so!!! It is a huge risk sometimes to plunge head on with someone that you have known only for a few months. For one thing, you are sooo passionate with each other that all you can think off is making out with that person!!!! Am I right or not??? Are you talking from experience? Ha!Ha! Ha! No! I guess I have watched too many soaps!! But kidding aside, is anyone out there care to make a comment or two??? We are dying to hear from you!!!

The show started with Ali having a one on one date with Kasey, an advertising account executive from Clovis, California. All I can remember is the two of them having a helicopter ride in New York City and a picnic, with Casey singing and telling Ali that he is all into her and that he is guarding her heart! Ali had reservations with him so she did not give him a rose on their date! Good for Ali!!! As soon as he started singing, I thought that oh, oh, he is boring!!! Kasey, I am glad you have a day job!!! No more singing please!!!!

The next date was a group date, where they ended up in Broadway. They auditioned for a dancing and singing part in the Lion King! Guess who can really move his butt??? Who else?? None other than Roberto!!! When he sang, he was off key but his gaze was intense and was focused only on Ali! What a ham!!!! That worked!! He got the job hands down!!!! Of course, the rest of the bachelors were green with envy!!!! Not only did Ali and Roberto got roles in the Lion King, they performed on a live audience in Broadway!!! Roberto and Ali were very close to one another flying on the stage!!!! How neat!!!! I bet you that they will both remember that day for the rest of their lives!!!! How many people get to act and perform on a live audience in Broadway???? I wonder if they got paid for that? Or did the producers got paid? After all, it is a free commercial for the Lion King!!! Goodness gracious!! You always think of something!!! Hmmm.... a thinker!!!! Are you saying that I am a thinker??? Thank you very much!!!!! Ali did not give out the rose on the group date also!!! The guys were very disappointed!!! At this point, Ali got sick!!!! Is that because you had too much kissing, Ali??? Remember... too much of everything is not conducive to your health!!!!!!

Ali was supposed to have a one on one date with the birthday boy, Chris!!!! Instead, Chris went to Ali's room with flowers and chicken noodle soup which earned him high marks with Ali!!!! Ali instantly got better, and off they went to celebrate his birthday!!!! He received the rose, the only one Ali gave on a date!!!! Meanwhile, there were a few bachelors who were not included on a date, including Justin, the Canadian wrestler! Why would he be on a date??? If I was also Ali, I would not pick him for a date because he cannot walk!!! She will not have a good time with him unless she just want to curl up on the sofa with him!!! That will be too boring for Ali who seems to be sooo carefree and full of energy!!!! In the meantime, Kasey has gone out of his mind. He was gone from the bachelor pad for 12 hours, per Justin. He came back with a bandage wrap around his wrist! He told the bachelors that he was in the hospital. Justin thought that he was lying and there was another confrontation between Justin and Kasey!!!! I just love this show!!!!Kasey had to show what he did to his wrist, a tattoo of an armor protecting a heart and a rose!!! What an idiot!!! A dummy and an imbecile!!!! Is he out of his mind?? If Ali does not pick him, then he will have that stupid tattoo on his wrist forever!!! For what??? To remind him of his stupidity, and just a whirlwind decision, and presto! there goes a tattoo!!! Good luck, Kasey, you should have used your better judgement before doing anything as insane as this!!!! Whew!!!! Is that love, stupidity, or what???? What do you guys think???

Two more bachelors left last night! Was Kasey one of them?? I would have like for him to have left since he is acting creepy and childish after his ego was bruised by Ali for not getting a rose on the one on one date. He was the first bachelor dated by Ali that did not get a rose!!! But Ali must have felt bad, so she gave him a rose!! Jesse and Jonathan, the weatherman bid farewell! I think Jonathan was a good choice to hit the road. He is another one that is stupid and does not know how to act with women! He gets flabbergasted and easily intimidated by anyone! When he was trying to get Ali from Craig, the lawyer, he did not get her to get up and leave Craig!! What was he thinking??? For Ali to rescue him and make the first move again??? Come on, get a handle on yourself! Do you not know how to fight for the woman of your dreams??? Or apparently, Ali is not really your dream girl??? Were you just on the show for your personal gain???? I think you were just hurt because there goes your ego!!!! Down, down, down!!!!! You cannot believed it... you, a TV personality, dumped by Ali!!!! Nenenenenene....... But now, watch out, there might be a lot of women that will be eyeing you since you have been exposed nationally, if not internationally!!!! But please do not get your head and ego any more bigger! How about Justin?? I think he is funny, even though he is a trouble maker! He resisted elimination which he was very, very surprised!!! I was not, since controversy sparks more audience!!!! More audience, more green bucks!!!! Right?????

What is in store for the remaining bachelors? More kissing, I bet!!!! Remember, Ali, you do not want monkey lips or mono!!!!!! You have been sick already!!!! Will stupid Kasey be able to finally tell Ali his out of the whim tattoo??? Will Iceland be another setting for more drama to unfold??? Or will Ali find more qualities to some of his men??? These are good questions that we will find out!!!! Stay tuned!!!!!

Tony Awards

What is a Tony Award? It is an award for excellence, which is Broadway's highest honors. It is the Oscar for the theatre! Did you know that the Tony award has been in existence since 1947? Wow! I thought it was just recently organized and founded! The Tony award was held at Radio City Music Hall in New York City where it is always held every year. There are currently 40 Broadway theatres in use in New York City. All but one are located in the Manhattan's Theatre district, which occupies the midtown blocks between 6th and 8th Avenues from West 41st Street ( Nederlander Theatre) to West 54th Street ( Studio 54). The Vivian Beaumont Theatre is the only Broadway playhouse that lies outside the Theatre district which is part of the Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts on West 65th Street. Do you want to know the first and oldest surviving Broadway theatre? Not really, but you will tell me anyway! You are right! It is the Lyceum Theatre in mid Manhattan! There, you know a little bit of Broadway!!!

The Tony awards had many well known actors and actresses that were on the audience and presenters. At first, I was so surprised to see movie stars like Catherine Zeta Jones, Michael Douglas, Will Smith, Jada Pinkett, Scarlett Johansson, Katie Holmes and Denzel Washington, to name a few. When they started to show some parts of the shows that are currently playing with these movie stars, then I realized that they are also Broadway performers now! In fact Denzel Washington won the best performance by a leading actor in a play ( Fences), and Scarlett Johansson won the best performance by a featured actress in a play ( A View from the Bridge). When Scarlett went on stage to get her acceptance speech, she mentioned Ryan Reynolds as " My Canadian." Why?? Who knows!!! I do not even know if they are dating, married or what!! Oh well.

It was a well put award show last night hosted by Sean Hayes! There were so many performances a la Broadway style, including the two main characters on the television show Glee, Will Schuester and Lea Michele! Did you know that these two and the other casts of Glee are the by products of Broadway? No wonder they can sing and dance!!! Needless to say, it was a very good show, although it was really long.... three hours!!!! I did not finish it because it was time for my beauty rest!! Ha ! Ha! Ha! If you did not finish the show, then how can you go to Broadway to watch a show? The shows are usually three hours long!!! I beg your pardon, I have been to a Broadway show, although it might have been many, many moons ago! They did not have the 40 theatres then. It was also glitzy then, so I could just imagine how it is now.

The cost of going to a show is from $20.00 to $120.00, depending where your seat is. I did not know that there is a standing room also at the very back of the theatre which is inexpensive! Not all theatres have a Standing Room ( SRO) only, though. Some theatres have an SRO if the show is sold out!!! If you want just to see the inside of a Broadway theatre and boast that you have been to one, then go for it!!! You will just be watching without sitting and probably will see the performers like ants because you will be sooo far from the stage!! El cheapo!!! Well, at least you have been to a Broadway show!!!!

Well, what are you guys waiting for??? Come on, pack your bags and let us head to Broadway!!!!!
