If you were a celebrity what would you drive. I’m talking about kicking that Kia to the curb and hopping in a Bentley. I know that everyone has envisioned themselves driving down their main road in a whip like 50 Cent’s Bentley. All I know is the nicest car I ever owned was an Audi A4. The Audi A4 was one of my favorite cars for many reasons. First of all, the four cylinder turbo version has a lot of pep for thirty miles per gallon. Secondly, it could get out of two feet of snow without lifting a shovel.
Kim Kardashian likes to spend her time strolling through rodeo drive in her new Ferrari F430. The great governor of California believe it or not rocks a Dodge Challenger SRT8. That’s not very environmental friendly. I already mentioned my love for Audi and a few celebrities agree with me: Gisele, BJ Novak, Ben Affleck, and Jude Law.
The point of the story is unless you can afford an Acura, Audi, or Mercedes you can always choose the cheaper alternatives. The Kia Sorento, Saturn Aura, and other more economical cars have become great buys. You may not get the navigation, but you will get a great ride for a great value.
The United States took a big hit when the government and IRS cracked down on online gambling a few years back. However, the TV networks are still airing national poker series and events. The popularity of the game has turned the game’s best into celebrities. Annie Duke is arguably the best woman poker player in the world. Donald Trump must watch her because he signed her up for the new Celebrity Apprentice along with Dennis Rodman, Joan Rivers, and former TLC member Tionne Watkins. Annie won her first WSOP bracelet in 2004 and was born in New Hampshire. The best part of the show is that the winner donates all of their winnings to charities. Annie will be donating her share to Refugees International.

America loves its heroes. Take a look at our leaders of the country. We elected the Terminator to run one of our biggest states. Jesse Ventura even got in the mix. I don’t know about anyone else, but I follow 24 like a religion to see what Jack Bauer will do next. Speaking of 24, what do you think is going to happen to Jack? I think Tony is on the verge of going commando to find the cure for the biological agent. There must be some sort of kryptonite out there if Starwood is capable of making the toxic non-contagious. I was never really a fan of House because I thought that he was too much of a hoax. However, I am coming to the realization that he is actually a hero in his own way. Either way, I am just hoping that these shows will continue and the debacle known as reality TV will soon come to an end. I can’t but help to fall in love with heroes and pass the love along. I watch my nephew play with cards and action figures with a lot of envy. These trading card games are becoming quite popular as the graphics far surpass the ones from my youth. Don’t forget to catch 24 as there are only a few hours left in the day.
You are nobody in Hollywood unless you rock the newest fashion. Today’s top stars own the hottest suits, shoes, and even t-shirts. Mary Carey, a celebrity and veteran of VH1’s Celebrity Rehab, was recently spotted wearing a t-shirt saying “Rehab is for Quitters.” These funny t-shirts are what’s in for fashion. The celebrities have found ways to utilize the constant attention to their own benefit. While she was competing on Dancing With the Stars, Kim Kardashian utilized her family and friends to promote her success by wearing t-shirts that said “Vote for Kim.” Pete Wentz was spotted rocking a early 1990’s Chicago Bulls t-shirt that totally reminded me of an old Detroit Pistons t-shirt I had. My brother rocked the Bulls with Scottie Pippen’s huge and I rocked the Pistons with the great Isaah Thomas. No matter what team you choose, these hilarious t-shirts are the way to go. I personally love t-shirts and I can never have enough. I did a recent overhaul of my closet and found about 20 classic t-shirts that I have owned over the years. Even if your spouse hates the collection, do the right thing and fight for the shirts. Don’t forget you can always use the fashion industry as the excuse.
Actor Matt Dillon pleaded guilty to speeding charges in Vermont and agreed to pay the $828 fine. Hope he has it in these tough times. The 44 year old actor was nabbed doing 106 miles per hour on interstate 91 in Vermont on December 30th. The excessive speed also drew the charge of negligent operation of a motor vehicle. However, like many other cases, the charge was dropped with the speeding plea and fine payment.
Clifford Harris, aka TI, has been sentenced to one year in prison stemming from 2007 weapons charges. Clifford tried to purchase unlicensed automatic machine guns and silencers hours after he headlined for BET’s hip-hop awards. Harris has already served over 1,000 community service hours teaching young kids about the effects of guns, drugs, and violence. He has 30-60 days to report to prison and still has about 500 hours of community service left. We love TI and wish him the best and predict that he will have a successful comeback.
Kimora Lee Simmons, the former 10 year wife of hip hop mogul Russell Simmons is pregnant again. This time it is with actor Djimon Housnou. The owner of Baby Phat already has two daughters with Russell. She divorced Russell in late 2008 so I guess she wasted no time. Maybe it’s because she is 33 years old and feels her biological clock is ticking. Either way, I don’t know the new guy but I think Russell is stand up guy.
It seems as the economy has affected every wealth class in America. Disney/ABC have publicized the need to cut off hundreds of workers in addition the already ESPN layoff earlier this month. Even Stephen Spielberg, who is opening a new DreamWorks studio, is having a difficult time receiving capital to fund the venture. JP Morgan Chase has raised his total to about half the necessary amount of $325 Million Dollars.
