Britney Spears Dreams Big

trix — Wed, 20 May 2009 16:45:00 GMT

Britney Spears has big dreams for her future. Not only does she want to raise her children in a smaller town, she wants to give up being a pop star and become a school teacher.

Do you think it will ever happen?

Alli Sims, in an interview with Reveal magazine, said of Britney: "Britney would always say, 'Maybe I just want to be a teacher. I just want to do something on a normal level. I've been something big for so long.'"

What subject do you think she would teach?

Poor Britney, I really do feel for her and her little family. It has to be so hard to be in the spotlight for so long. They all don't know anything different.

Josh Hamilton Loves God and Baseball

Whit Honea — Tue, 15 Jul 2008 16:45:00 GMT

Did you watch the MLB Home Run Derby last night? If you did then you know what I'm talking about. If you didn't, then your loss. End of post.

Just kidding.

Alright, here's the short version on Josh Hamilton. He was a blue chip prospect a few years back- first guy taken in the draft. He had some issues that derailed his career, namely drugs and alcohol. He was out of baseball for 3 years during which he started having visions and found God and got his act together. He's back:

Last night Josh stood beneath the lights in Yankee Stadium and looked into the eyes of the 71-year-old man pitching to him. Hamilton had brought his old pitching coach from his childhood to pitch to him, making good on a promise once made. Josh Hamilton stood there at the plate, sober and determined and proceeded to hit 28 home runs in the first round, thirteen of them on consecutive swings. It was a record. It had the crowd roaring. It was a dream literally come true.

You could see the movie being made even as Josh ultimately lost the 3 round contest to Justin Morneau. A baseball movie about more than baseball. Kevin Costner would have to gain about 30 pounds for the role.

Josh is married to Katie who is pregnant. They have one daughter together and Katie has a daughter from a previous relationship.

Annie Leibovitz and Her Disney Magic

Whit Honea — Fri, 02 Nov 2007 19:07:00 GMT

Annie Leibovitz has done it all in her career. The lady is to photography what Warhol was to painting but without all the soup cans. In a nutshell, she's good.

Disney commissioned her to do a series of photos using some of the biggest stars from sports and entertainment to portray classic Disney icons. It's pretty freakin' cool.

Says Leibovitz, "It's thrilling to have an opportunity to re-create the characters we all loved as children. The stories are real to my own children now, and their belief inspires me."

Preaching to the choir, Annie.

In regard to the photos, here is a portion of the press release:

Actress Rachel Weisz is Snow White, tennis star Roger Federer is King Arthur from "The Sword in the Stone" and actress Julie Andrews is the Blue Fairy from "Pinocchio" with actress Abigail Breslin as Fira from "Disney Fairies" in a new wave of celebrity images celebrating "The Year of a Million Dreams" at Disney Parks.

They join Scarlett Johansson as Cinderella, Beyoncé as "Alice in Wonderland" twirling in a teacup and David Beckham atop a steed as Prince Phillip from "Sleeping Beauty" in a 14-page insert appearing later this year in several Condé Nast publications. Johansson, Beyoncé and Beckham also starred in the first flight of Leibovitz images last January.

The Beyonce photo also included Lyle Lovett and Oliver Platt. The previous three photos can be seen here.
