MONDAY: Whitney's all open interview. BOBBY BEAT HER!
TUESDAY: The amazing return of the diva in a stunning performance. Her daughter plans on entering the biz. Do we see a future gay icon? Uh hum.
WENDSDAY: MJ Tribute. Slightly boring but it got good ratings. MJ fever continues Oprah style!
THURSDAY: YOUR FATHER WAS A SERIAL KILLER! Classic, talk show glory.
FRIDAY: Mariah+screaming fans+ biggest fans get free trip, concert tix, and roll in video+ new book club selection+ Precious ads galore (it worked I bought the book)+ New York City+ The Mayor= EVERYTHING THAT IS BIG ABOUT OPRAH IN ONE EPISODE!
Now, this week has been pop culture overload. Then again, every week is pop overload. In past years, this overload has felt intimidating. Anyone remember the 2006 VMAS? THOSE SCREENS WERE GOING TO EAT US. But now, the pop is part of us. Sure, some are saying its all rehashes and negative (cough Stephen King cough) but in reality this is what Warhol always dreamed of. The avant garde meets commercial (Lady Gaga), rehashes get awesomer (90210, that stupid Goodbye song), and watercooler moments meet tribute to the King (who is excited for the rumored Janet/Madonna tribute concert? I AM!). Gaga pretty much represents this. Pop is everything now and she knows it.
We haven't advanced to the point where guilty pleasures loose their guilty quality unfortunately. Jennifer's Body bombed. We all love Megan Fox... just only me, some heteros, and some queens will admit it.
Till next time pop lovers....
I'm out.
