Hot Or Not?

Reality star Kim Kardashian recently became blonde. But is it hot or not?



Personally I don't really like it. Probably because now she looks like 15 other celebrities including Shakira and Jessica Alba.

Abdul Update

Those saddened by the news that Paula Abdul announcing that she would be leaving American Idol, might not have to miss the former judge for long. Seems all kinds of offers have been flying her way including a spot on The View, a judge on Dancing With the Stars and a choreographer & judge of So You Think You Can Dance. Perhaps leaving Idol is what's best for her, the show seems so tired to me these days anyway.

America's Favorite Dancer Is...

After a record-breaking amount of votes, Jeanine Mason took the title of America's Favorite Dancer on tonight's results show of So You Think You Can Dance. Fans of the series don't have to wait until next summer for the new season. Season six of the dance competition will debut this fall.

Mimi & Em Duke It Out!

You've probably heard about the spat between songbird Mariah Carey and rapper Eminem. If you haven't, I'll just let the music do the talking:

Abdul Leaves "Idol"

For the first time since the show's debut in 2002, singer Paula Abdul will not be returning to American Idol as a judge for its ninth season.

She Tweets, "With sadness in my heart, I've decided not to return to #Idol. I'll miss nurturing all the new talent,but most of all being a part of a show that I helped from day1become an international phenomenon."

Prior to her announcement Tuesday, there was much in the news about Abdul's negotiations with Idol producers. Radar Online reported she was asking for $20 million when Idol was only willing to offer half that amount.

A familiar face will be returning, however. Kara DioGuardi, who was added to the judging panel last season, will be coming back to the show.

Host Ryan Seacrest also will be returning thanks to his new $45 million contract for three more years, making him the highest paid host on reality TV.

PS2 Outselling Newer PS3

Even the video game industry is being effects from the troubled economy. Sony is seeing a drop in sales for a couple of its products such as the Playstation 3 (from 1.6 million to 1.1 million) and its PSP (from 3.7 million to 1.2 million.) Despite this news, one product is really shining.

The Playstation 2 sold about 500,000 more units than the PS3. The nine year-old system is priced at $99, which happens to be much less than competitive systems. The X360 is $199. The Nintendo Wii is $250. As for the Playstation 3? $399.

PS2 offers a large amount of highly-rated games and the ability to play DVDs, which out shines the PS3 ability to play Blu-Ray technology (which who can afford anyways?). It'll be interesting to see what happens next in the gaming world.

Halloween 2009 Idea
