Friday, July 23

When most of us turned 16, we got birthday cake. Some got to have a party with some family and friends and presents here and there. Justin Bieber turned 16 and received a Range Rover from his mentor, Usher. On top of that, Diddy gave him his white $200,000 Lamborghini Gallardo Spyder. I wonder what he's getting for his 21st birthday...

BODY

I think many will agree that this portrait is self-explanatory yet universal meaning. To me, it shows that your body represents how you treat it. Feed yourself bad foods and you will have a bad food. All that beer equals a beer belly...

JERSEY SHORE X KTOWN

(In my opinion, the petite girl towards the middle resembles an asian Kourtney Kardashian)

I always hoped for more Asian American success in the public face of fame and fortune. I also wondered why I never saw more asians on reality tv shows and so forth. For example Laguna Beach and The Hills, I'm sure our daily circle of friends and the groups we socialize with at all our outings are more entertaining then what they have on TV. They can just call it "The Grove". Moving on, it turns out MTV is putting out an Asian Jersey Shore: K-town. It's produced by Tyrese and his production company, HQ Pictures. The producers had said earlier that they’re, “going to show Asian Americans like they’ve never been seen before to the rest of the world.”

"A few months back the Asian American reality show produced by Tyrese lit the Internet on fire. The cast for the Ktown Reality Show has finally been revealed. This picture was posted on twitter and shows the 8 cast members. 4 guys and 4 girls that will be on the show. With our research, we found that people competing include Young Lee, Jennifer Field, Joe Cha, Scarlet Chan, Violet Kim, Peter Le, Steve Kim, and Jasmine Chang. The pilot episode was shot over the weekend at BCD, Bohemians, and BoBo’s in Koreatown. From what we hear, there was drinking and drama on the set."

I like how instead of vodka its soju and their bar food consists of Kimchi Fried Rice and Bibimbap. I've been to bars and kareoke places similar to the ones in Ktown. There is a popular one called Rurulala in Rancho Cordova off of Bradshaw. They're just going to get drunk the same way we do. I think this show will be as entertaining as it is hilarious. By the way, it's located in Koreatown of Los Angeles. These people were actually casted from a craigslist ad, check it out:

GREEN LANTERN

I like how all these comic heroe's are being "brought to life" and multi-million dollar movies are being made to profit from them. I've always been a fan of Ryan Reynolds, he's comedic and smooth with the ladies, sort to speak. He broke into action films after preparing for the ripped transformation for the movie Blade III. He dumped his old wife, singer/songwriter Alanis Morissette and got re-married to the lovely, dreamy vixen named the one and only Scarlett Johansson.

Supposedly they're keep their personal lives extremely private and they decline to comment or state anything about their relationship/marriage. Back to the movie, he's always plays the fast-talking, slick, and funny guy. I'm sure the Green Lantern will give us some laughs and "wow" us with all the action. The female lead playing across from the star will be Gossip Girl's Blake Lively. I didn't like her so much at the beginning but she's grown a lot on me and I find her stunning now. Later on she is supposed to play his nemesis but who knows. Well here's some previews of what's to come.
