THIS IS IT

AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!!!

I would have to totally agree with Liz Taylor on her quote:
"You owe it to yourselves and your loved ones to see this again and again. Memorize and say to yourselves 'I saw GENIUS in my lifetime"

Obviously you all know I'm a HUGE Michael Jackson fan, so you probably figure that my review will be reflecting that fact. Well, let me tell you - even 1/2 fans of MJ will completely enjoy this movie. Honestly, I was a little afraid that I was going to have to sit there and listen to stupid commentary from the Jackson family with concert footage thrown inbetween. HALLELUJAH - Not ONE Jackson family member weaseled their way into this fantastic film. This Is It is 112 minutes of pure Michael Jackson concert rehearsal footage. And let me tell you - there were NO body doubles at all. There was no place that a body double would have been needed. You get to see MJ interact with the dancers (who are fantastic), the musicians and director Kenny Ortega.

MJ looked GREAT! The man is tall and skinny. Has been for years and years and years. He was having a great time and didn't look ill at all (which clearly says to me - he was carelessly murdered by that stupid doctor).

The production elements for certain songs (I don't want to give anything away) was definitely some of the most impressive work I would have seen intertwined with any artist in any concert.

I was also appreciative that there was no sappy ending. At the end of the movie, the movie ended....that was it. No need for any sensational video footage of ambulances, hospitals, vigils or a funeral service.

So take it from me and Liz - DON'T MISS THIS ON THE BIG SCREEN!! Sure you can buy the DVD at sonystyle.com/thisisit, but seeing MJ do all his dance moves HUGE is unreal.

The cool lanyard I got!


OK, now on to THEATRE ETIQUETTE......

1 - Don't bring a 3 year old to a movie unless it's a cartoon. There was a kid that kept saying "is it over....is it over....is it over" whenever there was a silence.

2 - Don't TALK....big fat DUH. There were 2 foreign ladies behind me that talked the whole freakin' time. I even did the turn around/evil scowl face TWICE and they didn't stop.

3 - Should you feel the need to share your Tootsie Pop stash - don't yell down to the person 5 seats away to ask if they want one.

4 - If there are numerous seats open, don't sit right infront of someone. I moved seats twice so I didn't have to have someone's fat head inbetween me and the moonwalk.

So with all that said - please silence your cellphone and enjoy the mindblowing rehearsal of what would have been THE concert of a life time!

THIS IS IT



Don't blame it on the sunshine,
Don't blame it on the moonlight,
Don't blame it on the good time,
BLAME IT ON THE BOOGIE!

THIS IS IT

My Dentist Adventure

Whoa......that is all I can say about my experience today! It was so weird that I honestly can't believe it! The weirdness has nothing to do with my fabu dentist - Dr. Ricci. I had a filling today and let me tell you - no pain, and I didn't look like Mary Jo Buttafucco for hours afterward. The man is amazing! A true artist of the mouth.

The weird part is how my mind want WACKO on the happy gas! I've been getting happy gas forever and I love it! Not in some crazy happy gas addict type person, but I mean, if my teeth are getting drilled, I might as well be high as a kite for a few minutes. My teeth have seen their share of the dentist chair, so I'm well aware of the magical-ness of the gas, but never in my life have I had such strange things going on in my brain!

Here are the highlights - at one point I thought the lady in my mouth was Mimi from Days Of Our Lives (Farah Fath - who now plays Gigi on One Live To Live) and had no problem with her there, once I thought I was in Dr. Hecher's office (childhood dentist), at one point I questioned my age, I also was expecting to see my old neighbor Jeff Engle, my grade school principal Mr. Engen and my 6th grade teacher Mr. Hall. I also thought the light thing was reallllllly long and scanning my face. And when I say questioned my age - I honestly thought I was in 6th grade again. I was questioning if my life really was where I thought it was, or if it was all a dream. HONESTLY! It was the strangest gas experience of my life!

Usually I'm just like goo in the chair, today was bizzzzzare! And the good news is, I have to go again in a few weeks! I wonder what will happen next time!

Thursday Gossip!

If anyone is interested - there is a SARAH SILVERMAN / JIMMY KIMMEL sex tape. It was supposedly filmed a few years ago, when the two of them were still together, obviously. The video they say it's about 15 minutes long.....they did not comment on Jimmy...

Are JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE and JESSICA BIEL still together??? Or has Justin ditched Jessica for RIHANNA??? We still don't know the answer . . . but the rumors are flying. "People" magazine says Justin and Jessica ARE still together. Their so-called "source" says, quote, "They're together. They're not breaking up. Any time they spend time apart it's because they're working." "Us Weekly" claims that Justin ended his relationship with Jessica - over the phone - about a month ago.

Did you know MARIAH CAREY would only be photographed ONLY FROM HER RIGHT SIDE. Well, now that she's older...dont' tell her I said that....she has become friends with her left side. She said "Someone told me when I was 19 starting in the business, my right side was my best side and I listened to them. I don't care anymore. Sometimes I like [the left] side . . . and Nick likes that side better anyway." ...keep in mind Nick sees the worst talent in America every week.

Surely there are better ways to keep your self grounded if you're a star....But one star says --"At one point I was digging goat manure and putting it into a wheelbarrow, and while shoveling it, I just went, 'Oh, my God, this is exactly what I want to be doing right now.'" This gem came from Ellen Page of Juno fame. Wouldn't just shopping at Target be good enough to keep a star grounded? Brit Brit shops there.....

British people are known for their bad teeth, fish and chips and their fun cockney slang....they're not known to be great lovers of film apparently. Here is a list of their top 5 movie heroines......

#2.) Clarice Starling . . . played by JODIE FOSTER in "The Silence of the Lambs".
#3.) Lara Croft . . . played by ANGELINA JOLIE in the "Tomb Raider" movies.
#4.) Ellen Ripley . . . played by SIGOURNEY WEAVER in the "Alien" flicks.

Ummmm, Cristabelle Abbott...Paris Hilton from the Hottie and the Nottie? HELLLLO.

She's baaaaaaaaaaaack! Well almost. Eliz Hasselbeck will be back on The View too soon in my opinion. She'll be annoying you on a daily basis beginning on October 19th.

Another day, another tantrum by Kanye West....this time over food. Vibe magazine says Kanye went crazy when he wasn't offered chicken...yes....chicken. Here is how it went down: Supposedly, Kanye saw some guy eating chicken, ran up to a waitress and yelled, quote, "Why wasn't I offered chicken? You want me to perform for free, [and] everyone is eating . . . why am I not eating?" The waitress apologized, and said they didn't know he wanted anything because he never asked. At that point, Kanye shouted back, quote, "Well, I'm asking now!" Then, when Kanye finally got his chicken, he took one bite . . . and dropped the rest in the trash.
