Hold on to your hats cowboys Lady Gaga's going to rock the 2017 Superbowl. She's back with a new album titled Joanne hit's shelves Octobe

She wrote, “I am beautiful in my way cause God makes no mistakes I am on the right track baby I was born this way” from her second album.  Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta was born on the upper east side of Manhattan she was a bit of an outcast in high school she often discusses in interviews when she talks about her upbringing and childhood. Who knew that the petite “underdog” with the big voice would become a fashion icon, songwriting genius, activist, and superstar all in a matter of less than 10 years.

I  have been a fan of this young lady for a while myself we have a lot in common we were both born in New York and we were  both born the same year  in 1986 she’s 8 months older than me she was born March 28, 1986. I have talked about her several times on my blog. I know how influential she can be in society and today’s generation too. She debuted in late 2008/early 2009 with her first single, “Just Dance” on the pop charts from her album, “Fame”.  This is a great time for Gaga although she has had a few setbacks it seems like she has regained her strength and has entered into the studio belting our writing new songs for her new album titled, “Joanne” written about her late who

passed and just so happens to be her middle name as well.  So now that she has about six albums her belt let’s see how Lady Gaga has evolved since her albums, “Fame” and “Fame Monster”.

Gaga has proved herself time and time again once starring on “Sopranos” and has also made her debut on American Horror story as well. Gaga continues to expand her brand she even is an ambassador for the “GLAAD” campaign she’s always been an active supporter of the LGBT community and raising awareness, she’s a spokeswoman for Versace, and also has her own fragrance, Fame. She's a golden globe winner, she has performed at the 2016 Golden Globes this year also and won the same night.

Joanne debuts October 21st Friday

Now Lady Gaga will get the opportunity to rock Houston, Texas’s superdome stage next year on Sunday, February 6, 2017 for the first time since singing the national anthem this past 2016 at the 50^th Super bowl.

Lady Gaga has already been seen spotted all over in commercials and promos with her NFL blue and white shirt, sparkly short daisy dukes and heels. She’s been telling entertainment news shows, interviewers, sports reporters, and broadcasters that “I have been looking forward to this since I was five years old. I am ready and know exactly what I want to do”. So I think that’s pretty admirable and a full circle moment for her when you get receive and opportunity you have worked and strived for a long time. This is one of her dreams about to come true. So will all of her little and big monsters watch “Mama Monster” next year? I hope so keep posted and watch out for more information as she gets prepared and ready for one of the biggest shows of her lifetime.

Fun, Family, hopefully they can survive together in Almost Christmas

Get ready for this holiday season a little earlier than expected. Get ready to celebrate with this wild and crazy family. I love holiday movies especially that feature Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas these are the times that we get to involve our families into popular traditions and we get to be a part of the festivities. We tell stories of past celebrations, talk about our family tree, we share fun moments and customs as well. No matter who you celebrate with during the holiday season this is a time to love, cherish, and enjoy every single person you love whether they are family,  friends, co-workers, neighbors, or those who help your community be better every single day. So with that being said let’s talk a little bit about Christmas and some of the popular Christmas movies. Last holiday season I actually just watched the original 1989 and classic Griswold’s  Christmas family vacation it was hilarious actually has made me want to consider a few Christmas trips myself, I love Best Man Holiday as one of my favorites, Just Christmas (2007) and “The Holiday” (2006) are some of my favorites too. So whenever a holiday film comes I am ready to see it. So who will be starring in our next comedic holiday film this Fall/Winter. Get ready because we have an all –star cast who is extremely multi-talented and have some major acting chops. 

Almost Christmas stars a family coming together for the holidays. The patriarch of the family played by legendary actor Danny Glover (little note I met Danny back in 2003 in person one of the sweetest people and down to earth) in case some of my readers don’t know who he is let’s just name a few of his films, “Color Purple”, “Lethal Weapon” trilogy, “Beloved”, “Saw Five”, “Dirty Grandpa”, “Dream girls”, and he stars on Criminal Minds. He has received 4 NAACP Awards, 3 Cable Ace Awards, and an MTV Movie Award. I cannot wait to see him in a more comedic role because we know he has tremendous range and go from any role to the next.  Next up you know her as one of the original “Queens of Comedy” the beautiful and hilarious, Mo’Nique!! (“The Parkers”, “Blackbird”, “Welcome home Roscoe Jenkins”, “Hair Show”, “Precious” and “Two can play that game”.) she will play the feisty and glamorous, “Aunt May”. Now this person I haven’t seen in a long time on the big screen but have seen him playing many other roles. So it’s nice to see his face again actually. Omar Epps, “Juice”, “The Wood”, Love & Basketball”, “Higher Learning”, “Scream 2”, and “House”. He will star as one of the patriarch’s children in this film. Also starring in the film will be Gabrielle Union who you have seen her in films like, “With this Ring”, “Deliver Us From Eva”, “The Honeymooners”, “Act Like A Lady think Like A Man 1 and 2”, “The Brothers”. Also starring is John Michael Higgins is starring as well he has appeared in "Happily Divorced:, "and "Attorney At Law"Harvey Birdman". "  The film also stars, Nicole Ari Parker-Kodjoe, “Rosewood”, “Vipaka”, and “Repentance”, next up is Kimberly Elise who stars on VH-1’s “Hit the Floor” and you’ve seen her in past films “Set it Off” and “Beloved” you will see her also play one of Danny’s children the eldest daughter. Also starring he just came off from being in Barbershop JB Smoove lends his comedic acting chops in Almost Christmas. Now last but not least are two newcomers to the entertainment game making their debut on the big screen, “newbies” Jessie T Usher (“Criminal Minds”, “Independence Day” , and “Survivor’s Remorse”, and lastly, internet personality, DC Young Fly will star in the film as well. One person I could not forget who will also star in this film is singer/songwriter Keri Hilson who will also make her screen debut this fall as well so look out for her cameo too.

So with that being said who is going to see this film full of actors who are definitely going to bring this fun warm family holiday comedic film to  theaters on November 11, 2016-Friday visit http://www.almostchristmasmovie.com

Watch out for this lady on the train she may be coming for you!!! "Girl on the train" in theaters Fall 2016

 

I have been looking forward to this film reading the book again just to make sure I can watch and see every detail. Imagine when you are sitting on the train wherever you live. Your mind starts to wonder and you think about your day ahead, the journey and the ride.  Now you start making stories up about the person sitting across from you. You think about their life, what their occupation may be, if they have a family, friends, etc. For the protagonist in Paula Hawkin’s “Girl on the train” is one definitely one character you will remember.  read the book last fall in 2015 I took it with me during my trip to New Orleans actually brought it on the plane, and could not put this book down. I was so happy to find get the dramatic cliff hanger ending too. The film is about Rachel Watson (played by Emily Blunt)- who starred in “5 Year Engagement”, “Devil wears Prada” she plays  a recent divorcee who has an alcoholic problem that has affected her marriage , her career, and her personal life is the complex character who we get to know in this deep, mysterious, and chilling film. The film is set in modern day London in the summer of 2013. All the while she engages herself staring and wondering what the life of this beautiful blonde woman and her husband are up to doing. I think this film is going to transform you into the world of a voyeur but also it will take you to a place of where the character has to stand up and fight for the victim who has been killed within the film. The character turns out to be the woman who Rachel has seen on the train. Rachel becomes invested in the case and begins telling the press and the police investigators about what she knows. She becomes involved and then things get deeper she dives into the missing girl’s life and discovers she has way more in common with her than she realized actually. Get ready for the next “Gone Girl” to make your head spin this fall. “Girl on the train” debuts on October 7, 2016-Friday! Visit http://www.girlonthetrain.com ‎

 

 

 

Go read it it's grrreeeatt!!! Lol

 

 

Start a new beginning...he said

He said “Let’s start a new beginning…”

All right guys my love life this year has had some crazy twists and turns some gentlemen didn’t want to give me another chance some of the guys were just not going to be the right fit at all….I wasn’t sure where I was going to end up…but apparently the universe may want me to be with this person who is still in my life for some crazy reason. “Mr. Engineer” you know who you are…apparently he’s been following inside the world of HBS and reading my blog. He knows this means a lot to me because as a journalist/freelance writer we can take what we can get if you have the time to read throughout your busy day. It’s all appreciated completely. I am open to this believe me I am a busy person and if I am not ever busy I keep myself preoccupied  cause there is always something to do believe me.  Now that does not mean I don’t have time for my family or friends. I try my best to make effort and time. If I haven’t for them I will do better but as far the man in my life goes I want us to make the effort, make the time, build something. Why not build something beautiful when we know we both can.  I believe we could because we are both in great places in our lives plus he’s not going to be far away from me anymore…he’s coming  to NYC!  He will be here very soon and I know this will be new for the both of us. At the same time because I live here and he used to live here it should be an easy adjustment. It just means more travel for the both of us but it will be more convenient, easy, and we will have time to see where we fit into both of our lives too.           

For me I see this as an opportunity to build and start something from scratch I want to do that but my memory is long and strong so at the same time a part of me goes don’t forget either. I want this to be a great moment for both of us. It will be a great new chapter for me and him. I can see it becoming a moment for us try to make things better, open up our worlds to each other. I think it will be a bit new, a bit fun, and my family and friends will come to see the sweetheart of a man I came to know in the beginning when we first met down south. So please stay tuned my dear readers I think I am going to have a few chapters for you guys now.   I pray and hope this will be a story that will have a positive ending too. With me either way you know I am classy about it and we can be grownups too. So no matter what happens I am going to embrace the new change. So babe I am open to a new beginning if you are reading this somewhere lol. =) See you soon and my readers I will have more to discuss you know there’s always more to share of course.

Get fun, get ready, and strut your stuff like the models it's fashion week in NYC 2016

Where do I live? I live in New York City honey! So as a young fashionista and journalist on the rise. I  have always loved clothes, shopping, I actually design and sketch evening dresses and special occasion dresses and accessories too  is one of my hobbies. Little tidbit....my mother as you know as has a t-shirt company Urban Global Tees, my grandmother Shirley was a model, sews and makes clothes too, and my great grandma Margie did too (it's in the genes). 

I always wanted my own fashion label too and beauty products. Now because my name is Chloe it’s hard to choose a name when it’s already taken (I love the clothing and well known high- fashion label Chloe adore their clothes). I love clothes from the past decades and retro fashions but I also love clothes that are modern too I try to keep up with the trends but in a moderate way sometimes we can love so many trends it gets confusing and overwhelming. So I will try to incorporate a few trends I love and what works best for me too. I love clothes that are well tailored and fit women’s bodies and accentuate our curves and shapes. I love clothes that make me still feel feminine, sexy, fun, interesting, and reflect my personality and mood. I also love being a chameleon too. I have had dreams of having my own spread in In Style magazine or Vogue magazine either writing, interviewing, or even me being covered in the story. I would even help assist, write, shoot the photographs, help with styling too if that opportunity ever came to me. So you see when it comes to me and clothes I consider a lot of things. I consider the occasion, the season, what looks best on my shape, and will I be comfortable in this all day. I believe that’s the most important thing with fashion you want to be comfortable.

Often times we see beautiful clothing and artistic designs that can get us a bit frustrated too. It make us want to take off our favorite patent leather four inch pumps and slide on some ballet flats immediately. So one thing with New Yorkers we opt for both. We carry both actually with us from day and night. That’s how we fluctuate throughout the day and we still remain on point too at night time as we know nightlife is when the city comes alive!. As you also know in New York a lot of women break rules for fashion too. They can create their own designs and outfits that can become a trend right away. This summer I have noticed a lot of fashion trends that I actually fell in love with from just average New York women. I saw a young lady walking down on the Upper East Side with a Watermelon  print dress I thought was so cute it was appropriate and fitting. Then a woman with a short 1920’s cut bob and a crossword puzzle print skirt and plain top with heels on the subway. See just that alone you know that they have style and they’re not afraid to show it. What are my favorite Fall trends so far I love how they are using the color blush a lot this fall and using that as a new color trend. I love deep reds, browns, golds, mustard yellows, grays for the Fall. I am not afraid to put a few pastel colors in there two as long as we can mix it up. I think my top 5 favorite pieces for Fall are a great coat I love coats, boots, hats, sweater dresses, and purses. I think once I am covered with those 5 I am great!!!! I have loved boots since I bought my very first expensive pair. Purses there are always so many to choose from as well. Hats I can never go wrong with a hat I know this will add some flair to my outfit, and I love a good cozy sweater dress. I can easily walk down the street with a black leather jacket (that’s the staple for me), dark washed jeans, some black knee high boots, and a cute shirt it can even just be a regular t-shirt. It’s easy breezy, fun, casual, and you look like you’re still on point. I have tons of fashion to show you all and will have plenty of photos to show as well. So since I am a little late for fashion week I am going to do my best.

Bridget Jones's Baby third part to a hilarious series!

In 2001 we come to know this special character she’s hilarious, bawdy, with a great sense of humor. Bridget Jones (played be Renee Zellwegger)  London’s favorite party girl is now settling down and will be expecting a child in this third installment. I have always loved the films. My mom was the one who hooked and turned me to British humor. She and a few other relatives laugh and enjoy shows with British accents. I personally love their accents too. Now aside from Bridget’s accent I love that she’s an aspiring journalist too. She’s not cookie cutter, she’s not perfect but in our eyes of course we think of course she is. She has done it all gone to jail in Thailand, kissed Mark Darcy (played by Colin Firth) in the snow in zebra print knickers, and now she will be having a baby with either Mark Darcy or perhaps Patrick Dempsey aka “Mr. McDreamy’s” character in this new film. I am personally rooting for her and Darcy because I wanted to see them become a family in the second film, “Edge of Reason” (2004) but with this new chapter maybe things have changed, she can be in a whole different place within the film and maybe things could be a lot different from where we left them on that Winter day when Bridget’s parents remarried and renewed their vows.  So for me as a hopeless romantic I hope whoever the lucky bloke is he will be the right fit for Bridget and her family in the film. So get ready to get your laugh on this weekend! Bridget returns to theaters September 16, 2016 on Friday! For more information on the film and where to go visit http:// www.bridgetjonesmovie.com/
