Musings From A Nobody

JODIE FOSTER ON JAY LENO 3/31/08

I didn't talk about, "it" on Jay Leno, I already spoke about, "it" last fall, now leave me alone and go see my new film, "Nim's Island" opening this Friday.

Jodie Foster was the main guest on Jay Leno talking about her sons, her fear of snakes and her mauling by a lion on the set of a film when she was a child actress, plugging her Nim's Island movie, but no mention of her partner, Cydney Bernard of fifteen years.  I guess she had a family film, Nim's Island to promote and most people may not have known about her coming out, since it was done at a film industry event and did not get widespread press.  And with Jodie who looks and acts quite, "femme" (except when she's kicking ass in the movies!) most of the public wouldn't perceive her being a lesbian anyway.  I guess to each's own.

LEONA LEWIS THE NEW DIVA ON THE BLOCK

I'm an American star!

A star is born and her name is Leona Lewis.  She becomes the first British female singer since Kim Wilde twenty  years prior to hit number one in the States with her American debut hit, Bleeding Love.  Already a huge sensation in her native UK, she has brought her act here to rapid success.  Good luck girl!

Oprah helped Leona sell a couple hundred thousand digital copies of her Bleeding Love single last week catapulting it to numero uno!

American Idol judge, Simon Cowell introduces Leona to an eagerly awaiting American public.

AMERICAN IDOL JUDGE'S RANDY JACKSON'S MUSIC CLUB VOL 1

Randy Jackson's new album, Randy Jackson's Music Club Vol 1 debuted last week on the Billboard Top 200 Album chart at #50, but now in its second week, it has fallen all the way down to #134.  Could it be that one of the various artists on this collection is a little, "pitchy".  Maybe it's Paula Abdul who has the track called Dance Like There's No Tomorrow on Randy's cd?

Yo dawgs, this CD is awesome! 

Don't look at me Randy, I sang my heart out!

ANOTHER TRADEGY FOR THE O'JAYS EDDIE LEVERT

Eddie Levert of The O'Jays fame lost another son, Sean Levert (who was only 39 years old!) died yesterday of undisclosed medical causes.  This was just after his other son, R&B giant, Gerald Levert died accidentally of a lethal combination of prescription and over the counter drugs barely a year and a half ago.   Both sons along with childhood friend, Marc Gordon were part of the 80's soul group, Levert. Very tragic.

OPRAH'S BIG GIVE RATINGS HAVE GONE UP ONCE AGAIN! 3/31/08

Thank you America for giving my Oprah's Big Give show another ratings boost!  Free cars for everyone!

Oprah's Big Give ratings went up from last week's nearly ten million viewers to a little over eleven million for last night's episode according to preliminary Nielsen ratings.  If this momentum continues for the last few episodes of the season, she may get numbers like she got for the premiere (near sixteen million), almost a month ago!
