Yeah, I felt a lot of things about this too. On one hand I get that people are disappointed that Kendrick released this because it’s more “stereotypical.” A big part of the reason that I love Kendrick is that he’s NOT like that. But on the other hand… have you HEARD this track? It’s dope and Kendrick’s flow on it is INCREDIBLE.
And it’s true, you can’t put Kendrick in a box, and he’s not gonna disown parts of himself or his story just because they’re not in line with a certain image.
So then I started watching this video, and was really into it. And then Sherane appeared. And I definitely had that excited moment… so THAT’S the famous “Sherane”!! But then that scene kept going on and I was like… Kendrick… come on. I thought you were different, so why are you using a woman like this?
But then I looked at Kendrick who is just standing there, a bit away from Sherane, just staring at the camera. And I thought… you know what? This IS a bit different. Why is he looking at the camera like that? That’s not how rappers usually play it when there’s a woman like Sherane dancing in their videos… they’re either not in the shot or they’re standing right next to her, interacting with her in some way. Kendrick is creating a different dynamic.
And it kinda reminds me of the juxtaposition in the lyrics of the song. The song says things like “damn I got bitches, wifey girlfriend and mistresses” and “I wish my dick get big as the Eiffel Tower, so I could f*ck the world for 72 hours,” but at the beginning and the end of the song he says “Martin had a dream, Kendrick have a dream!” And the stark contrast between Martin’s dream and the dream Kendrick is talking about in this song makes me think that this song is NOT adult Kendrick’s dream, and he’s forcing us to hear those juvenile sentiments in a completely different light just by slightly changing the dynamic when he brings Martin into it.
So is that what he’s doing in the scene with Sherane? I don’t know. I’m not sure what statement (if any) he’s trying to make, but he definitely made me think about it differently.
Or I could be over-thinking it ;)
“it still isn’t really looked on favorably by young people.”
..really?
I love Demi and am not Ashton’s biggest fan, but if two people are both in complete agreement that they are 100% done with each other, does it really matter if the paperwork hasn’t gone through yet? I don’t know. I’m sure some people would say it does, but I really think that what matters is the relationship between two people, not the legality.
Of course, I wouldn’t date someone who was still legally married, but that’s more because I would wonder if I was being played and their marriage wasn’t as over as they said it was. When everyone’s famous and their business is all out there that wouldn’t be as much of an issue.
Yeah, funniest part of this story to me is that Hailie says she’s not going to listen to Taylor Swift ANYMORE. Which means she did listen to her. And One Direction. Which means that Eminem has been living in a house in which Taylor Swift and One Direction are blasting. I imagine that must fuel his rage problem.
Attention-seeking behaviour itself is often tied into serious mental health issues.
I agree that none of us can diagnose her, but I think Steph is just saying that it’s important to be careful about how we talk about people who appear to be acting very strangely, because mental health issues are often involved. Of course I know that this is a gossip blog :p but it’s just something to think about I guess.
She looks stunning!
I agree that it’s completely normal for a kid to try on her mom’s heels, and that this is a cute family photo. FAMILY photo. It’s really not fair to put these kinds of family pics of your kid out there in the internet for the entire world to see and use as they will.
People are really naive about the internet. Kate just took a private picture of her daughter’s body and gave away control of it to strangers on the internet. Not cool. Save it for the family photo album.
I always assumed that Chad Kroeger had long since reached his lifetime quota of embarrassment, and could no longer feel it at all, and that that’s how he gets through his life of being Chad Kroeger. Hearing that he is still capable of feeling embarrassment makes me wonder how he gets through each day.
It’s probably impossible to say whether or not the fundraiser or Usher’s celebrity influenced the judge’s ruling, but my understanding is that judges are supposed to avoid even the APPEARANCE of impropriety. If he has that connection to the law firm, it seems to me that he should have removed himself from the case.









Maybe she’s just mad at him. And maybe she honestly feels like he’s threatening her. Why did he send her an email saying there’s a “price to pay”?
And yes, $12,000 is a lot. But shouldn’t all kids get the maximum amount of child support possible? No, it’s not necessary, but I doubt the money that could now be going to the kid would have otherwise been going to feed starving children in need, Matthew would have just kept it for himself. So who cares? I so don’t feel bad for him.
