Beyonce Shines on Wubb Idol

JeanneSager — Fri, 10 Apr 2009 14:01:00 GMT

Forget Sasha Fierce. Beyonce's got a new alter ego - and she's blonde-haired and blue cheeked.

The songstress is lending her voice to a new character on Noggin's Wow! Wow! Wubbzy! and can we just say she shines in the role?

We've gotten a look at a sample cut from the show, set to air May 1 at 1 p.m. on Nick Jr. followed by a prime-time appearance Sunday, May 3, at 7 p.m. on Noggin. Heading up a three-part girl group (sound familiar?) Beyonce stars as "Shine," the lead singer for the Wubb Girlz as Wuzzleburg gets its sing on.

She'll debut the new "Sing a Song" on the show as part of Wubb Idol, the Wubbzy-ied version of American Idol.

Finish Line - April Fools And More

Brett Singer — Fri, 03 Apr 2009 18:30:00 GMT

April Fool's ain't just for your kids, and that's no foolin'. You need foooolin', baby I'm not foooooolin'... or something like that.

A few faves from the week that will soon be history:

Shannon fooled a whole bunch of y'all with Sesame Street Changes with the Times Again. I wasn't snookered because, as anyone who's seen Avenue Q knows, only Bert goes that way. Ernie is as straight as an arrow. (If you haven't seen the show, my apologies since you don't get that. But see the show cuz it's very funny.)
Cole's post Musical SpongeBob Rectal Thermometer. Fun for Your Kid’s Butt? was not an April Fool's joke, unfortunately. Two comments that need their brilliance highlighted: Mike's "Sponge bob is actually a licensed physician in three states, so this makes a lot of sense. And his bedside manner is gracious." And CK Lunchbox, who said, "Beats the std home-test kit they had planned so teens could check for Krusty Krabs." Heh heh. Krabs.
Jeanne goes all cue ball for a good cause, tells us about it, and even shares a photo of her shiny pate with her post When a Mother Goes Bald. The shave is to raise money for St. Baldrick's, and I will admit to the world that it took me a few days to get the connection (BALDrick's). As a naturally almost-bald man, I approve. Read more about the worthy charity, and donate, at www.stbaldricks.org.
Jen found something else for parents to worry about with Why Can't Johnny Read? Because Someone Thinks His Books Contain Lead.
Keri got some folk's blood boiling when she wondered if we should be concerned with whether Ashley Biden does or does not liiiike.. cocaine with Joe Biden's Daughter Allegedly Caught on Tape Snorting Cocaine; Do We Care?
My personal favorite post of the past few days (from my own work, that is) was Spiderman Rescues Autistic Boy. And not only because it allowed me to mention Spiderman. Well, that's part of it. But it's not the only reason. (It's not!)
And finally, Hannah asks a question that has troubled scholars for many moons: Little Girl Dancing to "Single Ladies": Disturbing or Adorable?

That's all for now. See you next week. And remember -- let's be careful out there.

Little Girl Dancing to "Single Ladies": Disturbing or Adorable?

Hannah Tennant-Moore — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 17:30:00 GMT

Pint-sized YouTube star Arianna may just be the next Janet Jackson, if this video of her dancing to Beyonce’s “Single Ladies” is any indication of her future interests.

If you’re not up for social criticism today, you could just see this video as a delightful performance by an adorable little girl. But alas, I for one can’t help but find disturbing sociological trends in everything, and this video is certainly ripe for critique.

It’s hard to deny that there’s something off-putting about the fact that a four-year-old doing a booty-smacking dance is freely available on the World Wide Web. Not to mention that the sassy, hair-tossing message, “If you like it, then you should have put a ring on it,” is hardly a lesson I would like to impart to my daughters. I know pop culture is a bit behind the times on this point, but some women actually don’t just want to snag a man who will buy them expensive things.

Do you think Arianna’s parents are justifiably showing off their adorable and talented daughter, or does this video cross the line of appropriate online kid content?

I'm definitely not one to get all pissy over children's clothing -- I mean, whatever they want to wear is fine by me. Lipstick? Absolutely. Some colors really make a bib pop. And really, what kid doesn't like red heel boots to compliment a tight jean jacket?

But don't these kids look a little young for these clothes that don't even look good on their parents? Please tell me this is a rumor.
