  1. I didn't watch the whole thing, but I saw and liked Miguel, St. Vincent (wow, what legs!) and H.E.R.'s performances. Sheila E has put on a few pounds, but she looked great and full of energy. I HATED John Legend being given my favorite Prince song 'Nothing Compares'; I thought his stage show and arrangement were very Las Vegas-y, and his 'interpretation' was all hammy show-boating, with none of the despair and pain that this song expresses.
  2. The shorter hair looks fine. She should look for a hair thickener product online, it would add some volume. I suspect that without the massive fake hair, she looks like a pinhead. A small, sleek head on top of that bloated beachball will be very disproportionate.
  3. Except when he's walking- what exactly happened that made him so spraddle-legged? I thought he had brain cancer, which shouldn't have caused that. Despite that, he seems to have a lot of stamina as he runs after various criminals. Can anyone explain what afflicts Neils/Nils? Guessing scrotal cancer? (I must have missed the subtitled dialogue). Why on earth wouldn't Baptiste have warned his wife about the potential for danger, after already getting one person killed ?
  4. There should have been one of those 'Avert Your Eyes' warnings before the shot of Josh in bathing trunks. Emmett the handsome lawyer is here to guess how many years in prison June might get, IF she's ever arrested. Alana's comedy routine was not bad. Wonder if the biker comedian guy died of natural causes?
  5. Since they've pretty much covered all the off-season scandals in June World (which we all knew about already, via the tabloids), I'm hoping something actually happens on the show tonight. Oh, I just remembered that they still haven't done any coverage of 'June sells the house for less than it's worth'. So we'll probably see that pretty soon.
  6. I know there have been other versions, but I'm loving the current Intuit Tax ad with people doing the wobbly-leg dance to a hip hop jingle : ALL People are TAX People. I especially laugh at the little woman dancing on top of the toilet seat!
  7. I went back a few pages and haven't seen this one mentioned: how is it OK to show a family (which happens to be black) punching and hitting each other, and even kicking the dad through the glass patio door, all because they didn't have individual phones courtesy of Boost?
  8. I give Leneatha a year, maybe 2, before she can't do her work anymore and she files for disability. I also don't think she'll be around to see her daughter graduate high school. I LOL'd at this blob's insistence that it was somehow insulting for Dr. Now to inform her that she literally could live for months, if not years, without eating (at her current weight).
  9. Well, I understand that some of these companies need to keep their brands out there even if they can't sell us anything at the moment. Also, I wonder if some of them have committed to advertising $$$ for the quarter, or even for the year, so that they feel they have to use the air time they've already paid for. The ones that bug me are the car ads that oh-so-generously offer to pay 4 months of your lease if you lose your job; in fine print, it says 'for very qualified buyers'. IOW, the people likeliest to lose their jobs probably don't have enough income or savings to get this perk. So thanks for nothing, car company.
  10. I guess this hasn't been on for a while? I must be really bored, because I was pleased to see what is apparently a new episode pop up last night! It was mostly about some 'viral sensation' person with a giant rump (which she exposed at every opportunity) whose 'ultimate goal' was to have the perfect butt for twerking. Apparently her nethers had been shot full of something called hydagel, which just doesn't jiggle properly🤮 They couldn't help her, but she got a good 15 minutes of air time out of it. There was also some woman who had been on season 5 of The Real World, which was evidently the high point of her life, and a young man whose nose had been bitten by a dog when he was 4.
  11. Ha! Her eyes were on the point of spilling over for almost the entire hour, it was kind of ridiculous. Show was entertaining, and little different from the usual, so I liked it. I do agree the plot made no sense.
  12. Since we don't have a place for the clip reel of half the Top 20 kids which they showed Sunday April 12: Seeing each person's body of work all in one segment really did these singers a favor- there really are some very impressive performers here. Also, probably not a popular opinion, but I thought the 'influencer' guy who sang the Ah Ha song and the surfer-looking guy named 'Lou Dog' were both pretty good.
  13. I've been using GarnierNutrisse color 93 for years. My Hair Color As long as you don't get it actually in your eye, it seems to be safe. I'm pretty allergic to stuff, and I leave it on for a good 15 minutes with no problems to date. It's fairly thick, too, so it doesn't drip.
  14. RealHouseWife- You don't say if you double-process your hair at a salon, or are using a home product, but: I have naturally mid-brown hair with lots of gray, and I home-color to a medium golden blonde (have been for years). Most people think it's my natural color, and refer to me as blonde (which still kind of surprises me!). I have small, hazel green eyes, and naturally very thin brows that would be dark brown if I let them alone. Imo, that would look too harsh on my face, so I always use a bit of my hair color on my brows at the same time I do my hair. I just carefully spread the hair color on each brow, and then kind of rub it in. I check them periodically so they don't get too light. I always seem to end up with a few darker hairs mixed in, and once I put my 'blonde' brow makeup/powder on, it looks very natural. I used Jolene years ago, and always thought it turned out very orange-y; the hair color method seems to produce a better result, for some reason.
  15. Jennifer looked pretty good (above the waist) in that red color, but I assume that 'front cover' pic is going to be 1) heavily cropped, and 2) and inset, postage stamp size at best. Watching her stump around is painful. (Speaking of disabled, Doe Doe's gait is the definition of 'waddle'). The alleged plus size models in the waiting room looked like random over weight Walmart shoppers. And what is with everyone being called 'Miss ____', ie, Miss Gena, Miss Jennifer? I notice this on other reality shows, like Dr. Pimple Popper', too. The big fashion show looked like it was being held in an auto body shop, and the attendees looked like people responding to a general Twitter invite (or just scraped off the street corners and given $5 to come in and watch). Alana desperately needed shapewear in that yellow dress-thing; Lord, she's so lumpy for a 13 year old. However, at least she didn't fall down, which apparently is something that happens at these designers' shows all the time.
  16. I LOL'd at Zeke being resurrected during the Easter week show. Too bad they didn't have him wrapped in a blanket; the miraculous flash of light could have left a nice image for them to remember it all with. Since I'd be fine with Cal disappearing forever, I couldn't work up much interest in the kidnap plot, but I had major eyeroll over the 'soft hearted criminal' trope. I agree with those positing another dimension being involved, as far as the plane part goes, although that doesn't suggest any rationale for the callings.
  17. You're correct- these old eyes saw a '6' instead of '8'. And interestingly, there doesn't seem to be any official date of birth anyplace online, which makes me wonder if she may actually be older 🤨
  18. Lauren is 26, fwiw. I just don't like Cyniah for some reason, and 'Lady Marmalade' should be banned for anyone under 21. Squick. I have a strong suspicion she had no idea what she was singing in French. Olivia is cute as a button and obviously in good shape, but she's got a way to go before she can match 1966-era Tina's breath control (and legs). Little girl was panting. LOL at Luke doing the correct arm moves imitating Tina. Francisco's joy in performing is infectious (maybe the wrong word right now!).
  19. I actually love the Leslie Mann/Jergens lotion ads. I always laugh at the new one, where she's looking at a genealogy-type website, and tells her daughter something like 'the Depression is where we get out dustbowl elbows from'.
  20. Yes to the fupa, no to the lymphedema. Her skin looked pretty good, too. Her parents were both to blame. Dad could have turned down her offer of pizza, etc. in the nursing home ( what kind of nursing home allows fast food delivery to a bedbound guy on oxygen?) Megan herself seemed to hear what she wanted to hear, like a lot of these folks (ie, her obsession with her sodium intake). At least we didn't have to see her in the shower; also, she didn't have tattoos, piercings, heavy makeup or weird hair. However, she's probably doomed, due to her lack of support system (she didn't seem to have any friends or other relatives involved in her life).
  21. Because I clearly have nothing better to do, sigh: Snickers Product Lines That link, Colleenna,, goes to a 2018 article, and it looks like they've dropped/changed their line. No more almond butter bars.
  22. It also has tomato sauce, which is full of carbs/sugars. Peanuts, not almonds. 🥜
  23. Epic rundown, Otto- I would also say that the correction officers have somehow managed to avoid seeing the movie The Fugitive, which seems to show up every 2 or 3 days someplace on Spectrum, and which features this EXACT escape scheme. Um, apparently Sam's is also a pawn shop? Resale shop? Whatever; as far as I can see, the veil Eyebrows wears isn't even the same as the coarse, crumpled thing with lace edging that Ben brings back in the fancy box. We once rescued 3 poor little kittens during a brutal Wisconsin winter; their ears were all frostbitten/frozen, and they actually fell off/broke off after a few days inside. So every time Eyebrows caresses Zeke's head, I expect to see those janky ear rims fall off. (The kittens all quickly died of FIV complications, btw 😪).
  24. I suppose the bad guys could just be holding the 911 center for a ransom, but how do they escape? Also,they seem more like thugs than sophisticated terrorists. Ah, black don't crack. Athena mentions that her parents are 'in their 70's' (Angela Bassett is, of course, 61)!
