Behind-The-Scenes: Princess and the Frog

Below is a clip from the TV Guide's Hollywood 411. They were on the set of the movie "The Princess And The Frog." The stars (Anika Noni Rose, Terrance Howard and Oprah) talked about working on the movie.

Tiana is the first African American princess in the Disney franchise. Anika Noni Rose did a wonderful job as the princess. The character is hardworking, focused on her goals and loves her family. Of course, I would have loved for her to be a princess for the whole movie...but Cinderalla wasn't either. Tiana is sure to inspire not just little girls but big girls too.

Hello Kitty celebrated her 35th birthday with a star-studded party. The guest list included celebrities like Paris Hilton and Kimora.

I personally love Hello Kitty and now my nieces love her too. The first video was found on GlobalGrind.com. You can see shoots of the party and some of the art work featured at the event. The second video is a history of Hello Kitty design. Which Hello Kitty was your favorite?

Look-A-Likes: Party Like A Rock Star

Here's my rock star look-a-like pictures. The first picture is of Riot (Rory Lewellyn) from the 80's cartoon Jem and The Holograms. He was the leader of The Stingers rock group. Riot spent most of his time trying to win Jem's heart from Rio. The second picture is of rock and reality show icon Bret Micheals. We loved him man as the lead singer for the group Poison. Bret took his search for love to TV with his hit VH1 reality show Rock of Love. I love them both.

Sir Mix-A-Lot Gets Down With SpongeBob

I thought I was going crazy when I saw the new Burger King commercial. It was hard to believe that they used Baby Got Back for a kids meal commercial. I get it...but for a minute it seemed a little inappropriate with all the butt action. Flashback to my mom's face as me and my sister did similar dance moves around our pre-teen years. Not a good look.

Of course this commercial is more for the parents than the kids. I have to give it to Sir Mix-A-Lot for doing his thing and getting that money. Check out the commercial and the music video below.

Live Action Version of "Homies Over Hoes"

The following clips prove to me that I'm not the only person thinking these videos were meant to be fused together. The music video for "Pop Champagne" by Jim Jones is like a live action version of "Homies Over Hoes" from the Boondocks. YouTube is a wonderful thing!!

I just hate that Jim Jones paid someone to do a video when he could have called Aaron McGruder and used the Boondocks. Which video clip do you like better??

Jem The Movie?

Is it true...a Jem Movie? It's been rumored for awhile that a movie about Jem and the Holograms was coming to the big screen. Hasbro has registered the domain names for what could be the possible sites. Hummmm....

Jem's Space - MySpace Bulletin
We just wanted to let everyone know, thanks to Dragonielle for posting it on the JemCon.org message board, that Hasbro has officially registered JemMovie.com and JemAndTheHologramsMovie.com

The website domains were registered in February of 2008 and will remained registered until 2011. This along with the recent trademark updates to the Jem and Jem and the Holograms brands/trademarks/etc. could be a great sign that there is something JEM related in the work at Hasbro.
This post really put my mind into overdrive. This could be a dream come true or a nightmare for all true Jem fans. Should I be afraid...probably so. The Transformers movie was successful at the box office. But not all Transformer fans were happy with the latest version. I remember sitting in the theater and thinking...Why?? And the new live action G.I. Joe movie will be out in 2009. It looks like they are making a movie that fans can enjoy along with new toys for the kids. I just want to be able to see the action...not just hear stuff blowing up.

Oh God!! What are they going do to the Jem characters that we love so much? Who will they cast...movie stars, reality stars, pop singers? Will it be more for the fans or just for kids to buy dolls? Hopefully, there will be a way to please everyone. But the highlight of the all the Jem Movie talk, is that they might release a complete Jem Cartoon Box Set (and I want some really good packaging with more DVD extras). What do you think about a Jem and The Holograms Movie?

Black History Month - Shana from Jem and the Holograms

Black History Month
Shana from Jem and the Holograms

Shana Elmsford is the Fashion Designer, Drummer, Bass Guitarist and Backup Vocalist for one of my favorite pop/rock groups...Jem and the Holograms. I couldn't let Black History Month go by without putting a spotlight on Shana. Ok...she's an 80's cartoon character...but she rocks!! Truly Outrageous!!

Shana was a foster girl who grew up at Starlight House (the foster home that Jerrica and Kimber's family ran). She designed most of the clothes for the band and was showcased in a few episodes as a top designer. Shana briefly left the band to pursue her dream of being a professional fashion designer. During her absents from the band they hired Raya to play the drums in her place. When Shana returned to the group she started playing bass guitar. The girl got skills!!

She dated Anthony Julian the talented director that shot some of their music videos and movie. He supported Shana in her career moves. When he got the job working on a mini-series...he hooked her up with the star/producer Liz Stratton to get the job as a designer for the show. The character Shana was voiced by Cindy McGee and Anthony was voiced by T.K. Carter.

Quote from The Talent Search (Episode 28)
Liz
: I've warned you to make my co-stars to look less glamorous than me.
Shana
: Ms. Stratton. I won't do less than my best for anyone. You don't want a designer. You want a flunky to feed your ego. I quit.
