Disney Pixar Now Promises The ‘Integrity & Appearance’ Of Princess Merida Will Be Kept Intact

It Looks Like the Protest was a Success
Posted by: Trent on May 18, 2013| Leave a comment

Earlier this month the Walt Disney Company crowned Brave character Princess Merida as its 11th Disney Princess and celebrated by giving the character a makeover that slimmed her down and “sexed” her up. As a result, angry fans launched a public protest of the changes and demanded that Disney Pixar undo the changes to the character so that she can “exist” as non-glam character she was created to be. Today we hear from Disney Pixar officially on Facebook that they are listening to the fan backlash and have promised that the “integrity and appearance” of Princess Merida will NOT be changed after all. I’d say that the angry fans handily won this battle. Click below to read the full text of Disney Pixar‘s Merida statement. More »

Watch: Jennifer Lopez & Pitbull Release Their New Music Video For ‘Live It Up’

"We don’t believe in defeat / that’s why we’re back for a threepeat"
Posted by: Trent on May 18, 2013| 2 Comments
"Jenny from the block, let’s rock"

Earlier this month we got our first listen of Jennifer Lopez‘s new single Live It Up, which features her BFF Pitbull on guest rap vocals and today we get to see the just-released music video for the track. Sigh. Jenny from the Block really tries to look cool in this video but most of the time I just keep thinking, Damn girl … stop trying so hard. The song is still pretty meh. for me but the video is OK, I guess. I imagine it will do well on video screens at danceclubs when this song, invariably, will be played for the next few months. Give it a look, see what you think. Does Jennifer Lopez still have what it takes deliver with these kinds of music videos anymore? You be the judge.

Last night the whole world (including me) went cray-cray once E! News reported that Beyoncé was, indeed, expecting her second child with Jay-Z. People were laughing, crying, and PITNBr BGLU Tia had us all cracking up with her mini-rant about Bey‘s pregnancy and its affect on her life and upcoming concert experience. Most of us were shocked that Bey– who is such a superstar, and such a boss, and clearly an amazing businesswoman– would turn up prego in the middle of a world tour, but who knows?! We still haven’t gotten the official confirmation from Bey or her rep, but People is reporting that a source told them Bey and Jay were only planning to have a baby, and planned to get to work on that after her world tour.
