#REVIEW: PINK – “THE TRUTH ABOUT LOVE”
What would a P!nk Album be without the f*cking Expletives? Fans including myself have long awaited the three-time GRAMMY Winner's return to Music after focusing on being a Mother for a bit, but how almost four years have gone by since 2008's Funhouse, I have no clue. Make no mistake though, P!nk hasn't gone onto team-up with Anne Geddes on a Calendar Collection or anything - she's angsty and pissed still at the injustices of Love and the World.
Are We All We Are kicks-off with a bang, ...

Don't be fooled by the short-shorts and girly bangs, Carly Rae Jepsen is a Naughty Girl. Jepsen's debut major label Disc Kiss, however has never made being bad sound so good with its Seduce-your-Boyfriend Lyrics. I mean, we've already heard what she has to offered in her Collaboration with Owl City in Good Time and we liked it and need I mention Billboard Magazine's 2012 Song of the Summer, Call Me Maybe? Surely all involved with Project Jepsen are aware of the dangers of One-Hit Wonderdom ...

JENNIFER LAWRENCE’S AUTOGRAPHS: A RETROSPECTIVE
Fame really can change a person... all the way down to how they sign their name. Two Summers ago, I decided to write Jennifer Lawrence a Fan Letter while she was filming House at the End of the Street (now in theatres) in Ottawa. Within a week or two, she was amazingly sweet to reply back, signing a couple Photos I included with the letter. Incredibly touched by her performance in Winter's Bone, I had told her I was so excited for her return to Toronto one day and it would appear I got my ...

#REVIEW: “HOUSE AT THE END OF THE STREET”
The difference between The House at the End of the Street and any other Haunted House-Horror is that this Mother and Daughter know exactly what they're getting, versus finding out along the way when it's already too late. This effort from Director Mark Tonderai has Sarah (Elisabeth Shue) and Elissa (Jennifer Lawrence) aware precisely of a Double Homicide which took place on the same street they relocate to, all in the name of affordable housing.
Despite their genuine efforts to make ...
