America's Next Top Model Game Review
I'm not a big video game person anymore, I kind of grew out of them. BUT, when I saw this game in the store, I fell to the floor and was GAGGIN!!!!!
I have no idea what I was even doing in the video game aisle to begin with but that game to your left caught my eye with the quickness. I am THE BIGGEST Top Model fan. I've been waiting for a game to come out for the longest (those games you download on your mobile phone do not count).
I was so grateful that I had a Wii because if I didn't, no game for me. So I bought this with the quickness. This game had to be popular because they had to give me the one on display. Trust if they wouldn't have sold it to me I would have went to every game store i could until they sold it to me.
Now as far as the game goes, I must say I am somewhat disappointed. First of all, how are you going to make a video game based off of Tyra Bank's show and not have her in it? That confused the hell out of me. I mean she is the creator of the show shouldn't she be in this game? On top of not having Tyra, THE CREATOR OF THE SHOW, there was no Ms. J, no Jay Manuel, no Nigel, nobody important to the show.
As for your model, they have you choose between 4 generic, pre made models. How boring is that?! I was expecting a model creator where you get to create your model. There is a big variety of clothing, hairstyles, makeup, personalities, you know something you would probably see in The Sims when you create a sim. Being able to create your model would be one of the best feature of the game but the game lacks that.
I do like some aspects of the game though. I like how you actually have to complete everyday tasks until the end of the week which is elimination day. There is no skipping days you actually have to play out that entire day. Elimination is based on a point basis. Through out the week the judges give you points based on fitness, if you're dressed to fit the theme of the week, the photoshoot and so on. At the end of the week, you go to Elimination and walk the runway in clothes that fit the theme of that particular week. Then the judges once again give you a final score based on fitness, your runway walk, hair and makeup, and whether your clothing fit the theme of the week.
The girl who has the least points for the week is eliminated.
There are makeovers but not like the show. Every week there is a new theme like I mentioned earlier and just like you have to wear clothes that match the theme, you have to have a new style hair that matches the theme. The same applies with your make up. And you can actually fight the other girls and not get eliminated. They actually make you fight them. That would have not happened in the show and we all know it.
This game is not as good as I thought it would be and nowhere near as close to the show how I would have liked it to be. While there were some aspects to the game I like, there are also some aspects I dislike. If I were to give this game a rating out of 5 I would give it a 2.
David Archuleta New Single: Something 'Bout Love
David Archuleta's new single Something 'Bout Love has been released as well as the music video and I must say that I am loving his new single.
I am a BIG David Archuleta fan and has been his biggest supporter since I saw him on Star Search as a young lad. We may have been the same age, but I still had an ear for music back then.
This new single has taken a different approach from many of his songs in his self titled album. This song has more of a dance feel to it but is still a pop song.
What I like the most about his music is that it is very age appropriate. He's a 19 year old adolescent singing about love but not in an over sexual way like most songs out there today.
I think this song should do very well on the charts. His last single 'Crush' from his self titled album made #2 on the Hot 100 charts and his album made #2 on the billboard charts. I already pre ordered the album and can't wait to hear what else Archuleta has in store for us on this album.

Prop 8 Overturned
A major milestone has been made in the LGBT community. On August 5, 2010, California's Proposition 8 which banned homosexual marriage, was overturned.
I as being a gay male myself am proud that the LGBT community were able to get this bill overturned. There has been a lot of negativity around the issue of whether or not homosexuals should be allowed to marry. I don't see why others care so much about what I want to do. For those who are against it, how is this affecting your life?
It's not affecting your life. It's not harming you in any way, shape, or form. You just don't don't believe that this is appropriate and you're trying to push what you feel is appropriate on others who couldn't really give to fucks about what you think. You have no right to dictate how's others should live their lives. Is your life so boring that you have to try and ruin the lives of others? It must be because people against gay marriage have invested so much time into stopping homosexuals from getting married.
Prop 8 has been overturned and homosexuals are now allowed to get married legally in the state of California. Some believe that this won't last very long and that it will be overturned yet again. Well good luck with that. While you do that, I'm going to enjoy my rights.

Gloom
For it to be July, Los Angeles has been getting a lot of gloomy weather as show in the picture. Every morning when I leave for school in the morning, (yes I'm in summer school by choice) it looks like that and sometimes it even drizzles a bit.
Now I am all for rain and gloom BUT, it's simply not the time for all that weather. I want some sun if thats too much to ask for. Thank you.
Revenge of the Bridesmaids
Where has our beloved Raven Symone been all this time??????? I haven't seen her in action since The Cheetah Girls 2 and that was back in 2006. They didn't even have her in the third one.
But she's back I see. She will be premiering in an ABC Family original movie 'Revenge of the Bridesmaids.' I've been dying to see my Raven in something. Its been far too long since she's made an appearance on the big screen.
This movie airs on July 18, 2010 on ABC Family. Check your local listings and tune in if you're a Raven Symone stan like myself.
