Thankfully, my life isn’t quite like reality television. I don’t know if I could handle all the drama! On The Celebrity Apprentice, Joan Rivers packed her bags, had a thorny snit over Trump firing her daughter, and took off after slamming some of the others. Over on American Idol, there was a shocker in the bottom three this past week.
As we head towards the season finales of all the current reality shows, things are heating up. That includes tempers, strategies, alliances and, need we forget … song choices are more important than ever. After all, I never leave my house without the perfect song in mind to start off my day. Um … today? “Rainy Days and Mondays.”
That was the week it was
My personal opinion regarding Joan’s thorny snit exit on The Celebrity Apprentice is that it was all for the show. There have been issues all along due to her daughter Melissa being on the show. I don’t think Melissa was ever a viable candidate, but the conflicts due to having both Melissa and Joan on the show upped the drama and, therefore, the ratings. I’ll admit a good part of why I watch the show is Joan Rivers. Trump knew that when he cast her. Well, not about me in particular, mind you.
So, is she gone? Really? Of course not. I usually report things a week late, but I’ll clue you in. It’s all down to Annie and Joan now. Meow!
Whoa! On American Idol, golden boy Adam Lambert not only made it in the bottom three … he was in the bottom two! Whoopie! About time something knocked his little road to stardom off course. Oh, I’m still certain he’ll win it all in the end, but at least I got to smile as his confidence got set awry if but for a moment. Matt is out and we’re down to the final four.
Maybe it’s karma. I definitely didn’t smile when Coach won immunity on Survivor this week. I still have a bad taste in my mouth over the very idea that he won something. Not only did he win immunity, but those silly castaways did his bidding and got rid of Sierra so he could smirk. Blech! I still don’t get why everyone hated (or disliked) Sierra so much. While voting, Stephen said she was too erratic. Um, okay.
Chuck Wicks got the boot on Dancing With the Stars. Ignorant person about country music that I am, I had no clue who he was before he got on the show. So, it’s no great loss to me. I’m still waiting for the new season of So You Think You Can Dance. Now, there’s a dancing show I can get into! That season premiere is May 21. Be there or be square. Are you hip to my jive?
