I Dreamed a Dream

I've finally caught on to the Susan Boyle phenomenon.....and damn did she blow me away!!

I must admit her appearance isn't what you'd expect from a superstar....but in my eyes she's more than just your average superstar. I wouldn't even use the words Susan Boyle and average in the same sentence!!

Susan Boyle proves that appearance isn't everything...that anyone can impress and get on the world stage, knowing that you've got pure talent.

Three cheers to a woman who shows that anything is possible and that anyone can dream big!

And the fact that you're kicking President Obama's ass in views on youtube...makes you my Woman of the Week.

Amazing

The ever beautiful Heidi Klum is expecting her fourth child with hubby Seal.

After internet rumours surfaced, Seal confirmed at a show that she was indeed pregnant.

The couple already have three children, daughter Leni, and two sons Johan and Henry.

Personally I hope the fourth child will be a little girl...Congratulations!

Another one bites the dust

Marriages in Hollywood should definitely be seen as a luxury! If you make it to the one year mark, you should consider yourself damn lucky!

Now another couple, Mel Gibson and his wife Robyn Moore, have decided to call it quits - after 28 years of marriage.

Black Dog

The dog has entered the White House!!

By no means a dog person, or even a cat person, I must say the First Dog is absolutely adorable!

A gift from Ted Kennedy, the Obama girls finally have a dog....Bo!

I thought the Portuguese water dog was named after daddy dearest's initials...but apparently their cousins have a cat with the same name.

No One...

saw this coming, including me. In fact, I was hoping Thembi would make it to the Top Three, in the fifth season of Idols. This girl's got spunk, and a big voice for such a little girl. And her last performance on Idols, was beyond great.

This makes me wonder....do we not vote for our favourites, or do South Africans not have taste when they see or hear great voices...or talent. I'll go for the later....

This is because ANC president Jacob Zuma has just been voted sexiest politician in the country!! At first I thought it was a joke...but clearly not.

As for Thembi, I wish you everything of the best!!! Your future music career will soar to great heights, and you're by no way a Weekend Special.

It's been a while

2009 is a great year for supermodel Gisele Bundchen. First a secret and intimate wedding (difficult these days with all the paparazzi) to uber-hot sports star Tom Brady, and then a second wedding in beautiful Costa Rica. And now she's also on the April cover of my favourite magazine Vanity Fair...
