THROWBACK THURSDAY: THE POINTER SISTERS

The Pointer Sisters are one of my favorite singing groups EVER!! These bitches could S-A-N-G. Starting off in the early 70s singing updated big band style, the Sisters (Anita, Ruth, Bonnie and June) eventually whittled down the a trio (bye Bonnie) and established themselves as accomplished singers in almost every genre, from their country hits, Grammy Award winning Fairytale and Live Your Life Before You Die, to their covers of Slow Hand and Fire, to their biggest mainstream hits like I'm So Excited, Jump, Neutron Dance and He's So Shy. Their 1983 album Breakout had four Top 10, classic 80s hits, went triple platinum and was the Thriller of non-Thriller hit machines. I don't know what that means either, but I'm sticking to it. The Sisters eventually tuckered out on the charts but have continued performing, although June, who sang lead on most of the trio's biggest hits, passed away in 2006. Their music lives on, especially on my gym mix, and these songs are all classics. Enjoy some Pointer Sisters today and get your day going! FUN FACT: The video for I'm So Excited has an excellent table flip that puts Teresa Guidice to shame!! ha!

MEET THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF...SOUTH BOSTON. HILARIOUS!

This is so funny. I am (ashamedly) addicted to a couple of the Real Housewives shows, namely New Jersey and Beverly Hills. OKAY! And Atlanta, so this parody is like a dream. The scary thing is, it's not as bad as most of those shows, just with poor people. Meet Jackie, Amber, Dawn, Sharon, and Chaffin, The Real Housewives of South Boston. They have accents, criminal records and Jackie's Packie on Route 34. Oh, and one is in jail and one is married to Marky Mark's cousin. I'm dying. Watch this below and laugh the day away. BEWARE, STRONG LANGUAGE!! I wanna be on this show. "..I'm blind in one eye from that time I got in a fight at Bennigan's with most of the staff. The ball hits me right in the uterus. I knew immediately I was barren" Hilarious.

WHAT'S-HIS-FACE SIGNED WITH WHAT'S-THEIR-NAME AND THE WORLD KEEPS TURNING

LeBron James signed with the Miami Heat in a one-hour television special last night. Wait. What? How can we be focusing on this bullshit when there are real problems going on in the world. LINDSAY LOHAN IS GOING TO JAIL, Y'ALL!! AND her lawyer quit!!! Do you not know that next week on the Real Housewives of New Jersey Danielle gets her hair pulled? DO YOU NOT KNOW THAT? It's Courtney Love's birthday today. What could be more important? Did you guys know that Mel Gibson is even more racist than previously believed? And here we are, talking about basketball. How could we? Urkel hit his beyotch while driving this week, people. Let's get some perspective. I mean, really!!! [image]

SO NOW SHE'S A PROSTITUTION WHORE/SINGER?

Hot mess from hell reality star, Danielle Staub from the Real Housewives of New Jersey, isn't letting the fact that her eyebrows have been pulled to the back of her head stop her from jumping on the "I'm a singer too" train started by some other "housewives" alums. She debuted her new single, Real Close, on Bravo's late night show Live on Bravo last night. Andy Cohen looks like he enjoyed, but then again, I'm not sure his face moves from that expression without manual manipulation. Anyhoo, she actually conned legitimate musician Lori Michaels into singing with her. The isn't actually that bad, but that face kinda ruins it. If she gets one more face lift she's going to have a beard. Enjoy?

REAL HOUSEWIVES OF NEW JERSEY ARE BACK TONIGHT

The guiltiest of guilty pleasures, Real Housewives of New Jersey, are back for a second season tonight. The best of the "housewives" franchise, there's sure to be plenty of table-flipping, prostitution whores, incredibly high eyebrows and incredibly low hairlines coming your way. When last we left them drama was abounding, two of the "ladies" were pregnant, we found out Danielle was (hold on to your seat) an ex-junkie whore. Can you believe it? I can. Anyway, I am sure I'll be as invested (shamefully) as I was last year, so be prepared to hear all about it. The insantity starts tonight on Bravo at 10 PM. [image]
