THE NUTCRACKER AND THE FOUR REALMS IN THEATERS NOW WORLDWIDE
This story has always had a special
part in my heart becauseI have
been drawn to it since I was a little girl. I was so excited to see they are
making it into a major film for the holiday. I love this movie, the music which
was written, composed, and produced by Tchiakovsky I love it so much because it
brings back some beautiful childhood memories for me of watching the play
several times. It never gets old for me I will probably pass the same down to
my future little girls and boys when they are old enough to watch movies. I
will definitely play the music for them when they are babies. So they can
appreciate the music. The Nutcracker is based on a play that is focused on
Clara a little twelve or thirteen year old girl who lives with her prominent
family. They are celebrating the Christmas holidays and she has a dark
mysterious uncle who gives her a magical and beautiful gift a beautiful antique
nutcracker. She falls in love with it and cherishes it.
Her family is celebrating at a
holiday party and after it winds down she goes to bed one night and as she
dreams her sweet dreams. She imagines this beautiful nutcracker coming to life
andturns into “the Nutcracker
Prince” takes her off for a magical and beautiful ride of her life. He takes
her into the fantasy world full of candies, exotic beautiful international
ballet dancers, from all different parts of the world Russia, Japan, Arabia,
and many other parts of the world. She meets one of my favorite characters, The
Sugar Plum Fairy. I always wanted a costume to perform the Sugar Plum Fairy’s
dance.It’s one of my favorites
and the one she performs with Cavalier as well. I can still hear the beautiful
music. I think that’s probably one of the first times I fell in love with
classical music. I love that this film is coming out right at the holiday
season is the perfect time. The film stars Mackenzie Foy as Klara, Keira
Knightley as The Sugar Plum Fairy, Eugenio Derbez as Flower Realm King, Misty
Copeland as the Ballerina Princess (on a personal note I just watched Misty
Copeland’s 2015 documentary, “A Ballerina’s Tale” is an absolutely beautiful
film about a modern contemporary woman’s story, rise, and journey in the
American Ballet performance world and her remarkable chance to change
everything in all of American ballet for all minorities). She will be
phenomenal in this role for those who love performance art, live performances,
all forms of dance, and ballet. I will definitely love to do a story on her
myself in the future because as a kid who loved performing ballet I took it from age (4-11) and dancing growing up. It’s
amazing to see such a great accomplishment happen. The film also stars Morgan
Freeman as Drosselmeyer, Helen Mirren as Mother Ginger, Ellie Bamber as Louise,
Sergei Polunin, Matthew Macfayden,Jack Whitehall as Harlequin, Miranda Hart as Dew Drop Fairy, and “Lil’
Buck”.
I hope many will appreciate the
film, the history, the story, the music, and the beauty. It’s one of those
stories to be passed down to children and adults of all ages for generations to
come. Love it because it takes you from your every day reality and transforms
you into this beautiful fantasy world. “The Nutcracker and the four realms” is
in theaters now.

In every family there is one star
someone who has that special quality that stands out amongst all of the
millions or billions of people. Sometimes right in your own family there could
be several people who may stand out to you. But what if the entire has a
special quality that appeals to people. It is an automatic instant quality that
appeals to people. Sometimes right in your own family there could be several
people who may stand out to you. What if you have an entire family that each
has that special quality and talent in each one of them. It can be the way they
present themselves with their outfits, their hairstyles, their voice, whether
their speaking voice or their singing abilities, or their personality can just
attract you right away.
It can instantly intrigue you and also inspire you too to share them with the
world too. There are many families who have been in the spotlight we know about
the Jacksons, The Olsens, The Osmonds, The Hemsworths, The Kardashians there
are so many groups of people who have been in the spotlight but what if the
entire family had something unique and special about them. That’s a rarity to
find the entertainment business.When that discovery does happen you’re just like “Wow they have it!” You
have what we need. It’s like seeing that rainbow after a pouring thunderstorm
outside, a butterfly transform from a caterpillar, or a bee pollinating flowers
to make their honey. It’s beautiful, special, and unique how you can discover
their talent.
I
have discovered over the last year five different families who each have star
quality and some of you may know who these people are already and are in for a
treat. They are from five different parts of the world, some of them have a lot
in common though, and some may possibly have seen each other online, heard on
the radio, have seen on television, or social media too. These five families
all are incredibly talented not just with their abilities, but their business
sense, their advice they give to people, their production skills, their filming
skills, and yes they are all stunning! Yes they have beautiful children,
husbands, and wives too. So it’s beautiful to see how You Tube continues to
have amazing families who are sharing their lives with us and are
inspirational, fun, loving, giving, and are teaching not only their children
they are teaching and making us all look at ourselves and our families
differently. So who are these wonderful five families?
1. The Casey Crew-the head of the
family Rashaan “DJ Envy” Casey and Gia Casey they have five children currently:
Madison, 16, Logan, 14, Jackson, 4, London 3, and Brooklyn 2. “DJ Envy” where
would you know him from well he’s a Dee jay, businessman, radio personality,
and one of the three hosts of “The Breakfast Club” on Power 105.1 in New York
City. He and his beautiful wife are originally from Queens, New York and are
high school sweethearts they met when they were sophomores in high school and
have been inseparable, still crazy in love with each other after 22 years of
being together. They each have something special the kids could all of course be
models, actors, or actresses if they ever wanted to in the future. Aside from
their amazing looks, they are incredibly smart business people and they give insightful,
educated, honest, real, advice to people. They are real about it they look out
for people as if they know them and treat them like family on their pod cast. They
update daily and are very consistent with all of their fans, responding to
direct messages “dms” on IG, e-mails, and comments too. The Caseys are
hilarious they are that daring family they take chances.
2. The Grimwades- Ella Grimwade and
Timothy Grimwade have five beautiful children too three girls and two boys:
Heze,8 Hosanna, 6, Halle, 5 Harper,2 and Hezariah Reu 8 months old. They are
one of the sweetest couples I have encountered they also met when they were in
high school as well. Their story is very sweet, admirable, they fell in love at
teens, later were engaged, and married in 2009 they will be celebrating their
10th anniversary this upcoming year in 2019. I notice the key with
them is they make sure to give each other time, they are smitten with each
other, they give time for the kids, they are really good at compartmentalizing
with the kids. They educate, show the kids how to share, make, build things
together, and the kids get along amazingly well. They are hardworking parents
and also have something interesting in common they both love music, Ella has an
amazing voice and Timothy is a hip-hop artist in the UK and his music has been
featured online. Love their show because they put effort into it with their
videos it’s a big production they work hard on it with the graphics, topics,
and the kids love it! So it’s a huge effort. I fell in love with Ella and her
videos when she was doing different tutorials initially and she was posting the
journey of her pregnancy with her last son. They were just so charming, sweet,
and everyone is crazy about this family. They deserve a show, something amazing
with their beautiful family. Another fun fact I discovered is their oldest children are
actually teach their children at school which is pretty amazing their mother,
father, and relatives are right there to assist them with raising their
children.
3. The Lokkos- Cassandra and Karl
Lokko just recently had their first born son, Lyan Lokko this summer in July
and I loved their story I found these two last year during the summer and just
got hooked actually. I saw them post their beautiful wedding from beginning,
ceremony, to the reception last summer . Fell in love with their story
instantly. They are both very creative, talented, instantly was drawn right
away to not only their story, but what they share on YouTube, their advice and
other stories too.
I have been following their videos
along the way are funny, they document their special occasions, family moments,
and have been invited to some major events. They were at the 2018 big wedding
of the year, The Royal Wedding of the year between Duchess of Sussex and Prince
Harry. Love these two especially since Cassandra “Cass” is a Communications
major a couple of my YouTube family members are actually I hope you know I
adore all five families I wish I could meet all of you together it would be
amazing.
4. The Edwards-Kaylin and Kyrah
Edward met in high school and were
recently married last year and have an adorable four month old, Karter who was born
this year in June is the spitting image of his beautiful mother and his daddy’s
sense of humor and smile. I loved their story because they are only in their
early twenties but look and behave like a mature couple in their early forties.
I love it they are young, vibrant, fun, down to earth, and just an awesome
couple but they have great sense, maturity, and you can tell they were made for
each other.
5. The Ellises, Devale Ellis and
Khadeen Ellis along with their three sons: Jackson, 8 Kairo, 2 and Kaz, 1 are
childhood sweethearts they grew up in the same neighborhood and eventually went
to the same college call it fate. They both knew each other in passing and
never knew they would cross paths again and they started dating in 2004 and
after college were married. They have three beautiful boys who I think will
either be comedians, athletes, actors, or incredibly brilliant in different role.
Devale and Khadeen are both communication majors and have made their way into
the Hollywood scene, Devale I noticed was on the YouTube hit series, “Tough
Love” where he played “Joseph”, one of the character’s brothers is where I
discovered him initially. Now after seeing Devale with his family you see him
in an incredible light there is a beautiful story here. The Ellis family of
five they needs a sitcom or movie immediately. They are hilarious real life
antics, no scripts at all everything is impromptu and off the top of their
brains, quick, funny, relatable, and all love.
So these five families I wonder
where they are heading next but tune in subscribe, watch, share, post comments,
follow them on social media, and look out for them because I think there are
some stars on the rise within their families.
You know one thing I realized something about this story not only do I love the families who have broadcasted their lives and stories with us on You Tube. I realized one beautiful detail they are millennials. I remember reading a story about how people are surprised to see that millennials want to get married at a later age. It's funny because all of these people met during their childhood or high school. They are all millennials born between the late 70s, early 80s too. They are raising big beautiful families and the kids are raised by the same father and mother. So it's a beautiful story to witness all of their journeys and stories. I hope to see more of this in the future and more of them getting a lot of recognition too.
A decade later…I didn’t know I would have this blog this
long but because we are still in the digital era it’s the sweetest thing to
have this platform I am so excited for the future because I get to turn things
all the way up. Your girl has been busy this year. I cannot believe it is October
and it just so happens to be my blog’s 10th birthday is approaching October
21st, 2008 I created it and started my first post about female empowerment
and discussing a few albums some of you music lovers will know and now it’s
expanded. I can discuss everyone’s album, pop culture, music, television,
fashion, and everything that happens in real and live time.
I am proud that I did this project, I have to thank my
professor who taught my Basic Reporting class the great, journalist/writer/
radio show host, Karen Hunter, all of the bloggers it’s so many of you I follow, read, and check
out, the writers, journalists, photographers, and most of all Google (GOOGLE I
LOVE YOU!!!!! You’re my babe all day).
Also the creator who initially had the
phenomenal idea to start this Evan Ferris is the actual person who made Blogger
that is a genius platform for writers of all different backgrounds to come and
share our thoughts, ideas, and opinions. Thank you for having this amazing vision to make something that's been life changing for all of us in different media platforms.
Why do I have to give Google a shout out because I had an
opportunity to work temporarily at Google this summer and Google just so
happens to be connected to blogger.com the company who is responsible for
owning my blog especially if I want to add advertisement to my blog I have to
go through Google and ask for permission too. So yes I have to give all praise
to them they just turned 20 too so it’s a big year for monumental birthdays for
our companies, services, and business. This was initially just a hobby
something I would do in my spare time but then it became a passion project. I
have to thank all of the readers I’ve been checking my stats just to see which
countries and the amount of people who are reading and many of you come from
the United States of America which is amazing so you all live here in the
country and are probably right under my nose. The rest of you are in other
parts like South America, Europe, I even saw some stats for Greenland! I am
impressed and very proud. I am glad my words, my stories, the news stories, and
all of the people who have been featured have inspired you, motivated, made you
want to work even harder, or that you have seen their movies, read their books,
checked out their clothing lines, perfumes, and other products. I hope you have
visited their shows live in person too.
This blog has been a digital scrapbook, a digital time
capsule, something I can pass on to the next generation in my family, and there after. I love that as a bloggers we get to share with all of you on how
important it is to have a voice, to speak up on so many different topics that
can bring your joy, excitement, and happiness.So this goes for all of the bloggers, vloggers, everyone who
has established a platform, a brand, believes in pop culture, believes in still
having a great time, believes in all dreams coming true, and wants to keep
creating and building great businesses, companies, brands, and stars. That’s
what I have gained from writing about people who all sought out to make
something great for themselves and others too.
This is for you I will celebrate with a glass of champagne I
toast to all of you the Blogging and Vlogging community to YouTube, Word Press, Bloggers, Square
Space, and all of the companies who give us a chance to build something amazing
with their blogs and other sites that allow us to create something instant and
amazing.
Now along with new beginnings a new decade is ahead of me
now and there’s still a lot to talk about of course. I decided to change my
blog’s name because I felt like it wasn’t really representing me, like who I
really am as a whole person from beginning to present time. I thought to myself
think about what’s become apart o you now I am going to dedicate the name to the
place where I was born and currently live at the moment. I decided to dedicate
it to the city that I love where I was born, made, and have experienced so
much. I dedicated the blog to where it was born too in New York City. So my
blog is now “The Original Manhattanite” because that’s who created it me and
that’s where it’s birthplace is too. Too much won’t change I will still share
my stories, my life, and other experiences with you but we’re going in a
different, sophisticated, more grown up direction now. Means were going to have
more fun though too I will not forget that. Let’s just say now my blog and I
are going to show you what we both are really made of now.
So to all the writers, bloggers, and vloggers I salute you
and keep on with your passion cause your passion made lead you to a career you’re
going to be head over heels in love with too. Dream the biggest dreams they really do come true =) xoxoxo thank you all so much =)
I feel like the
last few years I have seen a lot happening in Brooklyn. I have been able to
visit a lot more frequently old friends and family. I have even dated a few
people from Brooklyn too. Oh and my family on my father’s side just so happens
to be from there and I lived there too as a baby. I have been visiting Brooklyn
“BK” since I was a child so for me to do this story is a big honor I am humbled
to be writing about a borough that has definitely been influential in my life
and my families life too. So when I heard the concept for BET (Black Entertainment
Television’s) latest reality and upcoming show I was immediately drawn to it
right away. BET has had many hits I have noticed killing it with their reality
television series, movies, sitcoms, and even their award shows honoring and
always showing superb black excellence. Have you seen their shows like “College
Hill”, “The Quad”, “Hit the Floor”, “Being Mary Jane”, “The Game” just to name
a few. I believe with this new upcoming show it’s going to take people in New
York City and Brooklyn give them a taste of why we hustle, why are they always
on their grind so much? I think when you meet these people you will see why.
“Hustlin’ is Winning”.
I was thinking wait a minute what about
Manhattan, Queens, and the Bronx but I guess because so many other major
superstars are from those boroughs and have been featured on many other
television networks and series. It seemed like Brooklyn was probably the best
way to go. Considering how the neighborhood has drastically changed and gentrified
over the years with new restaurants, new shopping malls, large corporate
buildings, landmarks have been redone, larger department stores have been made.
So I have seen the change in Brooklyn the last 10 years.
I believe when you come from a borough that is well known to
so many people around the world. You are bound to have this extra confidence,
swag, sass, or a bop in your step. You know you have learned how to hustle, how
to survive, and how to most of all make a name for yourself. Remember Notorious
B.I.G, Shawn “Jay-Z” Carter, Spike Lee, Aaliyah, and so many others are from
Brooklyn who were born and bred all went on to make names for themselves to
represent New York City too.
I hope that this show will focus on
what each of these millennial is trying to accomplish, they each have the
hustle and drive to be successful in their creative field of choice. The cast
is full of characters, real people who have all made a brand and name for
themselves in entrepreneurship, business, marketing, publicity, fashion,
retail, event planning, hosting, acting, comedy, and many other fields. I love
that this is the focus because this time right now there’s so much happening
that it should be documented for millennials to show what they have been up to
in their career choices. I have heard some “baby boomers” say “Your generation
is one of the most talented and gifted especially when it comes to technology
and building social media platforms”. I hope that this show will showcase that
our generation can still have some old fashion values when it comes to the
workforce like dedication, commitment, loyalty, punctuality, focus, and drive.
Yet we are just faster paced, more tech savvy, and we know when something is
amazing it needs to be shared, we know how to get it out there right away.
Especially when it is something that can benefit masses of people. So let’s get
to know these cast of characters who are all millennials born between the
(1980s-2000s)
Alicia is an up and coming
marketing manager who owns her own public relations company and business. She has
popular clients who are featured in mainstream media. You can follow her on IG
@MsGooding she owns a company called “The Code”. Love hearing about a girl boss
especially one who’s from the city and is literally on her grind trying to make
ends meet I get it and I see what it takes to get there.
Next is Azia is a “jack of all
trades” she can sing, rap, model, and she’s a television host as well. So she’s
guaranteed to break out and get her career going even further with her
profession. You can follow this up coming star at @aziaiam on IG.
Then you have Danielle she’s best
friends with Azia and loves to host events with her bestie any time when she’s
ready. You can follow this girl so you can turn up with her @dannyduces_
We also have an upcoming African
American Comedy Queen coming to the show I love hearing this because there is
such a limit of comedic actresses and comediennes who get their name
spotlighted. So when I saw that not only is she beautiful but just so happens
to be funny too. I thought uh oh get ready Tiffany Haddish, Monique, and
Sommore, and Sheryl Underwood you’ve got some competition. Her names is Eva
Evans fantastic name and stage name. Let’s just hope that this comedic diva
makes her way up to the stage and on to the big screen too. You can follow her
at @evaevans on Instagram
Last is our socialite and party
girl she likes to work a room and mingle. She also happens to be single for the
gentlemen who ready my blog. This is Ivy she’s the social butterfly looking for
love so we will see how this works on the show how will the ladies balance
dating, relationships, businesses, family, their personal lives, and the dreams
on this show.
Now let’s introduce the fellas….
Ron I cannot front Ron is fine! (I
can say that because this is going on my blog and I run this so I am free to
give compliments). I am sorry but you are I am just going to put it out there…I
don’t know you but you are very handsome. Ron is focused on his rap career and
making it into the music industry. So look out for his upcoming work and
projects. I want to see who he pairs up with will he be working with some well
-known producers, musicians, and songwriters. We will see stay tuned. Follow
Ron @baggy.large on instagram.
Darnell he’s an entrepreneur now I
love business-minded people I come from a family of people who believe in
building brands and having something that can benefit and help the people no
matter what the product or service is too. So I am very curious to see what he
and the other cast members will bring to the table when it comes to building
brands for themselves. You can follow the stylish and handsomeDarnell on instagram @aioxoia
Jesse I haven’t met a talent
manager before I definitely would love to because if it were up to me I would
love to see how a talent manager scouts to find that up and coming new
superstar. Jesse is a talent manager and celebrity developer I would like to
sit with him one day just to see how do you know who’s the real deal and who is
just a flash in the pan. You know when someone has star quality and a gift that
just pulls you in right away. You notice it the moment they form a sentence.
Talent like that never goes unacknowledged. I want to see what and how Jesse
brings his A game to the table on the show. Follow Jesse @uknojb
Marco he works for
a financial institution so you always need someone to cover you when it comes
to the finance world. I think knowing how to manage your money even when it
comes to your daily spending habits. It takes you to a place you never even
imagined. Its great to see that this crew will have someone who can school them
and prepare them to keep their finances in check when it comes to business. So
he’s business minded and also happens to be dating Randy another cast member on
the show. Randy Bowden is another up and comer who is into modeling and just
recently signed to State Artist Management.
Follow him and Randy both @_mguapo
and @randybowdenjr. On IG
Next I am going to put these two
together because they are family and they started a business together. TP and
Perks found a family business together which focuses on events and know how to
turn up and bring a full fun experience to your next party. They are huge risk
takers took a chance and gambled with quitting their day jobs to focus
primarily on owning their own businesses. I commend them for that its something
many of us with that passion and drive want to do. You have to know at the end
of the day what you are walking and getting into before making a huge financial
and employment commitment.
Last but certainly not least is
Santos he is the man around Brooklyn who everyone knows him he cofounded 82
group which is one of his businesses and companies. You can follow him
@tosmoney on IG.
You know I always include a few songs for you that correlate to my blog posts lol.....so here are a few of Brooklyn's Best Musicians and Artists
Hello my wonderful readers I am so glad this is where I get to kick off my blog this feels like a full circle moment ....because I remember when President Obama was running I was attending my third semester of college at Hunter and his name was zooming in the air through everyones ears and lips.
10 years ago in 2008 they were fighting and
spreading the word saying “Yes we can” “Get fired up ready to go!” she is the
backbone, the supportive, devoted, strength, and she comes in a gorgeous 5 foot
10 inch package her name is Michelle Lavaughn Robinson Obama she is the wife of
the 44th former president, Barack Hussein Obama and she changed the
game completely as a first lady, mother, wife, and more in the White House. She
changed women’s images completely as FLOTUS, which was an incredible honor to
carry for everyone.
I am so honored I get to be apart
of this elite club the Democratic National Committee it’s a pleasure I signed
up just to volunteer, lend my support, and I am so glad I get to gain so much
knowledge from 2008 to 2016 and probably in 2020 I will definitely step up to
spread the word once again no matter what I am doing. I promise to continue on
spreading the word to help the democrats see more progression and change in the
white house, more diversity I would love to se the first female president, the
first Asian president, the first Hispanic president, and more. We need to see
more diversity from all walks of life. I love that she was probably writing her
memoirs I bet since before Barack even made into office. She probably started
his journey to become a senator or maybe before she met him. Who knows but a
life lived and to experience a moment so historical for nearly a decade has to
be honored, must be written down, and shared with the world. She shared Barack
with all of us around the world. I can only imagine what she will share in her
story as a young girl raised in Chicago, a daughter, sister, wife , mother, and
her journey leading up to watching her husband pledge the oath that very cold
January 20, 2009 in Washington, DC. I will never forget that moment and many
others will not either. I remember exactly where I was I was at my father’s
apartment watching it on his big screen television in Riverdale, Maryland. I was
laughing so hard because my father was screaming “Obama!” at the television
screen every time the camera panned to the massive crowd cheering in their
heavy winter down jackets andcoats and hats. We watched on all of the stations it was a moment to be
shared and never forgotten I will never forget how precious that time was ever.
So to hear his beautiful wife’s
story who has impacted lives, she’s changed a generation of women there’s no
other better story to hear than the one full of a powerful woman who is
independent, confident, intelligent, well spoken, original, and she’s a boss in
her own right. She could start a company and people would jump up right away to
be at her aide and side. Her story will be told just like those of royalty and
queens. When the next generation comes along after 2020 they will hear stories
of women like Michelle Obama, Rachel Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, Serena
Williams, Venus Williams, Hoda Kotb, and so many other women will be behind
these powerful women and there stories. I can go on and on about whom the next
generation will learn and pass these stories down to as well. I just realize
their impact and how they have changed the game and the world for women in a
way that is mesmerizing and inspirational. The little girls and boys coming up
and who will be born in this generation are the luckiest little kids on the
planet! They have a chance to live in a world where now you really can be
whoever you want to be and it all started with this woman’s husband, Dr. King,
and many others who have paved and made their way and mark during the Women’s .
Her new book will debut and hits bookshelves at all of the stores on……. Pay
attention and look for it coming out very soon. Always a pleasure and a breeze
to talk about one of my favorite political families who changed the way we look
at African American marriages, relationships, and families. This family has
left their mark already and changed how everyone in other countries around the world
view us now. Go Michelle cannot wait to read your book. You can pre order Michelle
Obama’s memoir “Becoming Michelle Obama” now and it will be available for
purchase November 13, 2018. Visit http://www.becomingmichelleobama.com,
The Enigma Tour and Jazz Show Performances kick off December 28, 2018 in Las Vegas, Nevada visit http://www.ladygaga.com
Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta
better known to her fans as “Mother Monster”or “Lady Gaga”was phenomenal at the 2017 52ndSuper bowl where she headlined the Pepsi
Halftime Show I enjoyed her performance because you were really watching
someone’s dream come to life and come true. Her career has taken off into the
stratosphere even more with her album, “Joanne”, her tour, music videos, her
recent documentary, which is on Netflix to watch “Five Foot Two”. Her
documentary showcases her grueling schedule, preparation from getting her hair,
make up done, hours of rehearsal, physical therapy sessions, her personal
moments with her family, and her work ethic in the studio with her producers,
engineers, and writers while preparing for her next album. You also see the
softer side, her connection to her loyal “Monsters” and how she loves all of
her devoted fans, their support, and how much she cares for all of them.
Lady Gaga is a beast I say
that lovingly I have never seen a woman sacrifice so much all while in physical
pain and still go out there and just slam their performance. She’s relentless
some musical divas may want to take a break, revive themselves, maybe go on
vacation for a few days or weeks to prepare themselves. No the show must go on
with her and she does it well, she will put everything aside just to make sure
it happens. I admire her drive, ambition, and her hustle. One thing I love is
the fact that she’s a New York girl born and bred. She had a plan to simply
become a star, she didn’t know how initially but she knew it was going to
happen at some point. Of course we
know her road was not an easy one but she made it and found a way to break into
the music, fashion, television, and now the film industry.
Lady Gaga will star in her first
role where she is the lead actress in “A Star is Born” with Bradley Cooper the
film comes out this October 5, 2018 so get ready people have already been
buzzing and talking since the trailer’s release earlier this summer. I think
she’s going to blow many minds with this role. She has already appeared in
“American Horror Story” and “The Sopranos” years ago. She’s also appeared in
other television shows and made cameos too.
Now in December 2018 -2019 Lady
Gaga’s headed for one of my favorite places Las Vegas! I am so excited for her
because I think this east coast girl will love Nevada and the glorious heat and
sunshine. There’s so much to do in Vegas and I think she will love it just as
many of us do during her residency. Her timing couldn’t be more perfect she’s
coming in right after Jennifer Lopez, Britney Spears, and Mariah Carey’s
residencies. So it’s perfect timing and I am sure she will slay the stage with
her amazing costume changes, I have seen her site, the announcement, and a bit
of previews online. She’s doing two separate shows her live concert and there
will also be a separate live jazz performance. This is genius so viewers and
attendees will have a full on experience with her when she performs. You get to
see Lady Gaga switch up her hats a bit literally. She can perform, sing, plays
instruments, dance, change costumes, she’s funny, and has an awesome sense of
humor so she knows how to cater to an audience. She knows how to tap into
different genres of music.
I think this is definitely what Vegas needs right now. So are
you ready to see her….I personally would love to myself, a trip to me out there
I would never turn down. I think I have too much love for Vegas now especially
after my last visit a year ago. So another visit would just be whip cream, and
a cherry on top of my sundae. I am looking forward to it and I hope all of the
Monsters and music lovers are too. So get ready she’s about to take the world
by storm again. 10 years and now she’s heading for a residency cannot wait to
see what else is next. Expect Greatness. So for more information visit http://www.ladygaga.com her show kicks off
December 28th and for information on the film visit http://www.astarisbornmovie.com
