GLEE Trumps The Beatles, Renesmee Cast for Breaking Dawn, and We Say "Bye" to A Gordon-Levitt

Yeah, yeah, yeah, quit laughing, we get it. You think you're better than The Beatles.

Yep! The Beatles have been surpassed. For 46 years, they held the record for the most appearances on the Billboard Hot 100 by a non-solo act with 71 songs. Now, these guys have claimed that record:

Losers.

Thanks to Glee's Britney Spears episode, they have a one--or four--up on The Beatles. The bar has been set higher with 74 being the record for Most Appearances on the Billboard Hot 100 by a non-solo act. The Beatles made that record thanks to hits that were released from 1964-1996, the Glee cast broke it within a very impressive 16-month time frame.

The formula?

Take past and present hits, add a different arrangement, divide the elements among a good-looking cast, and watch the iTunes hits multiply. Very smart. That is the reason why EVERYONE loves watching Glee. Including me! :D So kudos to the cast! You go down in history this week. *thumbs up*

Any of you read the Twilight series?

WELL I DO so NO bashing hahaha!

But no, really..Yes, I've read it, and for those who have, the worry about finding the perfect Renesmee is finally over. Meet Mackenzie Foy:

Whew. I'm relieved.

Red hair? Check. Green eyes? Check. Fair, yet rosey skin? Check.

Congratulations to little Mackenzie Foy, the 9-year-old who was able to bag the role of Renesmee Carlie Cullen for the final installment of the Twilight Series. I'm honestly happy with what she looks like. Let's not be too excited, though, since she might not even appear in the first Breaking Dawn movie...and I say "first" because the book will be split into two, and Renesmee isn't born until the latter half.

How are they gonna make her mature, you ask?

Well, do you remember The Curious Case of Benjamin Button?(you should, we premiered it) That's exactly what they have planned for Renesmee's rapid growth.

Also, so far, we've got Rami Malek as Benjamin (Night at the Museum), and Maggie Grace as Irina (Lost, Taken).

In a sad turn of events this time around, Joseph Gordon-Levitt's older brother, "Burning Dan" just moved on to another plane.


1974-2010

Quotes taken from PopEater:

* "Burning Dan" taught flow arts, which he described as, "a combination of performance art and dance and meditation and yoga and sort of self-transformation, to give you a fun way of doing something that's really good for you and helps you be an even smoother, more awesome person than you already were," in a recent interview with PopEater.

The two brothers shared a close relationship, conceptualizing hitRECORD.org, an online community of artists and filmmakers, together and eventually seeing it evolve into a popular destination for creatives.

As Joseph's older brother, Dan beamed over the actor's success saying, "It's wonderful to be mistaken for him. He taught me to question the relationships other people have with their siblings because he would be my favorite person in the world even if I wasn't lucky enough to know him as my brother. He's just awesome in every way that I pay attention to. I ask myself 'do I love him because he's my brother or is he really that awesome?' He's really, really awesome." *

Here he is, awesome-ing the shit out:

Lil' Wayne: Solitary Confinement, and a Brand New Earth??

Been trying to write my John Mayer experience, but you see, it surpasses words!

So I'ma just settle for giving you THIS!


Lil Wayne's been in jail for possession of firearms (BAD DADDY), and with just one month left til his release, he's been sentenced to solitary confinement. That means 23 hours a day, he'll be alone, no T.V., no music, and no social time. The only interaction he's allowed to have is ONE PHONE CALL A WEEK.

Why?

They found his iPod and the rest of his iPod accessories hidden in a potato chip bag. Tsktsktsk.

In other news!

Scientists found another earth! And so close by, too!

Named after the wife of the one who found it, planet Zarmina is just 20 lightyears away. Yes, far compared to a trip from Mandaluyong to Alabang, but in space terms, that's HELLA CLOSE. Like, SERIOUSLY. Scientists couldn't even believe that they found an earth-like planet this close to our own galaxy. With that discovery, the chances of finding yet another earth-like planet out there increased to SUPERDUPER (if you can understand what that means lolz), so we can't possibly be the only living thing in the universe.

Zarmina..
  • ..is bigger than our earth (3-4 times bigger)
  • ..has a 37-day orbit (happy new month!)
  • ..is mos def cleaner!
  • ..can support life!
Check it out:


Looks alot like earth, doesn't it? Now, that sun is actually a red dwarf (Gliese 581) and Zarmina (Gliese 581g), is actually orbiting in the "habitable zone" with 2 other planets (Gliese 581c and d), but Zarmina is the most habitable one because there's a great possibility of it having water.

I'm excited!

I mean, although I won't be able to see it in my lifetime, I'd be glad to just know there's a place where humans can keep on living after we've destroyed this one with pollution. Let's hope we learn our lesson then, eh? ;)

But for now...COOL PLANET!! :D
