She Dreamed a Dream!

The Internet phenomenon Susan Boyle, finalist in the Britains Got Talent music show, sang the song that made her so famous 7 weeks ago, “I Dreamed a Dream”, from the musical “Les Miserables”, last night in the finals. Her entree “I Dreamed a Dream” from 7 weeks ago has been viewed millions of times and she is now the fifth-most watched clip in the history of YouTube.

When she gave her final curtsy after singing her entry no one thought that it would be, Her Final Curtsy, as she was favored to win not only by the people but also by the bookmakers. Unfortunately, this was not to be, as she came in second loosing to an acrobatic dance troupe called Diversity which consists of 10 members ranging from 12 to 25 years old.

The winners of Britains Got Talent have now earned £100,000, ($160,000), and the right to perform for Queen Elizabeth II at the Royal Variety Show in December.

Even though Susan Boyle did not win the Britains Got Talent music show last night it is not over for her by any stretch of the imagination as she has already appeared on Oprah Winfrey and Larry King and of course it is expected that she will land a lucrative recording contract as a result of her global fame and impressive voice.

This is what they saw and heard last night on Britains Got Talent:

That’s all for me today, hope to see you back again soon for more…

The End Of Another Era!

Jay Leno, also known as The Holy Grail of Comediennes, was ushered onto the stage last night with a version of “The Star-Spangled Banner”, by bandleader Kevin Eubanks.

As soon as the applause died down he began his monologue saying:

“Welcome to the exciting season finale of The Tonight Show, I want to thank all the people who made it possible: Michael Jackson, Monica Lewinsky and Bill Clinton.”

Jay Leno also got in a last quip at O.J. Simpson. Leno remarked about cleaning out his office, “I found O.J.’s knife. I had it the whole time.”

His swan song last night had a very limited guest list, he did welcome Conan O’Brien though as his final guest, thus giving him a pre-debut boost since Conan O’Brien will be sitting in Leno’s chair starting Monday, Billy Crystal, who was Jay Leno’s first guest on his first show was there and James Taylor, who was his final musical guest, was present also and performed “Sweet Baby James”. The remainder of the show consisted mainly of the best highlights of the last 17 years.

And so ends yet another era of The Tonight Show, this one with Jay Leno finishing his 17-year tenure as the show’s second-longest running host.

Jay Leno Final Tonight Show

Last night, Friday May 29, 2009, was all for Jay Leno and The Tonight Show just like that’s all for me today! Hope to see you back again soon for some more…

But It Already Looks Like A Mug Shot!!

I was reading this morning how 4 states, Arkansas, Indiana, Nevada and Virginia have all adopted the Neutral Facial Expression law when it comes to getting your Driver’s License these days.

Now isn’t this going to be something? EVERYONE is always saying just how horrible their Drivers License photo’s look to begin with, in fact most say it looks like a mug shot, and NOW, they aren’t even going to be allowed to Smile in their Driver’s License Mug Shot!!

Well, I suppose most people Don’t Smile anyway when they are getting a Mug Shot taken, but there will probably be a lot more terrified Police Officers out there in these states when they ask people for their ID’s from now on!!!

Needless to say I am sure that a lot more states in America are going to follow suit and adopt this law also, so I suppose we should all get ready for some Worse Driver’s License photos in the future! And remember:

Don’t Say CHEESE!!

That’s all for me today I hope to see you back again soon and I am going to try to return from Hiatus more often also, I’m sorry for the long disappearance’s, but they can not be helped!
