Keith Urban and Nicole Kidman pose together at the 2009 BMI Country Awards at BMI on Tuesday (November 10) in Nashville, Tennessee.
The 42-year-old country singer is competing for entertainer of the year against George Strait, Brad Paisley, Kenny Chesey, and Taylor Swift.
“It’s not gender based, and it takes into account all the things we do in a year - making records and playing concerts and being artists,” Keith said. “It’s always been a real prize.”

My last post truly was an affirmation.  I do believe it will happen someday.   It has to, I spent many hundreds of dollars for a website  :  )

Srsly, I have a completely new outlook.  I know it's just a matter of time.  I know I am still growing as a writer and that every day that goes by that I continue writing I am getting stronger, better.  I also know that someday my prince (aka the right agent) will come.  We just haven't found each other yet.  He's just being held up by a dragon or something.

Revising is going well.  Lots to do but I'm up for it.  My sabbatical helped a lot a lot a lot.  Thanks for all the support guys, as well as the inspiration of your successes.

Disabled viewers are not singing a happy tune when it comes to Glee's Nov. 11 episode, "Wheels."

A scene in the FOX ensemble song-and-dance series airing Wednesday where the cast performs "Proud Mary" in wheelchairs to support their paraplegic pal, Artie (Kevin McHale), deprives a disabled actor a shot at stardom, says CSI cast member Robert David Hall.

"I think there's a fear of litigation, that a person with disabilities might slow a production down, fear that viewers might be uncomfortable," the actor, 61, told USA Today.

But that's a misconception.

"I've made my living as an actor for 30 years and I walk on two artificial legs," Hall, who chairs a multi-union committee for performers with disabilities, says.

Producers for Glee, which focuses on the plight of an underdog high school glee club, say they pride themselves on having assembled a diverse cast, which includes McHale.

"We brought in anyone: white, black, Asian, in a wheelchair," executive producer Brad Falchuk said.

"It was very hard to find people who could really sing, really act, and have that charisma you need on TV."
And while Falchuck sympathizes with those in the disabled community, he says McHale, 21, who plays Artie, is the perfect fit for the role. "It's hard to say no to someone that talented," Falchuk said.

Kris continues to deliver with covers at a recent show at The Vineyard, doing both Heartless/Gangsta's Paradise and Falling Slowly/With or Without You mashups.



( Falling Slowly/WOWY after the cut )

I caught last Wednesday's Hip Hop invasion series on Fuse and loved the specials they showed on Tupac and Lil Wayne. Tonight's specials feature Jay-Z, 50 Cent , Kanye, Eminem, Young Jeezy, and more! Starting at 7pm ET is "Hip Hop Shop" hosted by music and pop culture insider Toure’. The show provides a weekly dose of urban flavor, featuring music videos and interviews from the hottest celebrities and musicians.

Up after that is two episodes of "BEEF" featuring Young Jeezy and Chamillionaire. Click on the SOURCE below for more!



What I'm really looking forward to is "THE 20 HOTTEST HIP HOP VIDEOS" starting at 10pm. The videos will be presented according to overall popularity, record sales, and strength of the artist featuring videos from LIL’ WAYNE, LUDACRIS, EMINEM, JAY-Z, 50 CENT, KANYE, + more!
The best part is WE get to CHOOSE which video takes the top spot. My vote is for Biggie Smalls, but Eminem appears to be taking the lead! Check out the lineup and vote HERE

Or, How Did "V" Do Last Night?



ABC’s V dropped 29% To A 3.7 adults 18-49 rating on Tuesday night.
As it has been this fall, CBS stayed atop the average ratings on Tuesday night with an overall 3.5 adults 18-49 rating, stretching its lead over ABC by a tenth of a point from last week as its shows held mostly steady. NCIS was down 2% to a 4.2 adults 18-49 rating. NCIS:LA was up 3% to a 3.7 rating and The Good Wife was flat, tieing its lowest series rating.
Even as V was sinking, buoyed by a Susan Boyle guest visit, Dancing With The Stars was up 10% from last week to a 3.4 rating. And an In the Spotlight with Robin Roberts special tallied a 2.4 rating, 26% better than last week’s results for the forgotten.
Winning the 9pm hour, NBC’s Biggest Loser was up 6% overall from last week to a 3.7 rating. And Tuesday’s continue to be The Jay Leno Show’s best night as it tallied a 1.9 rating, down 5% from last week.

I watched V last night, but tbh I was a little disappointed in the episode. I even forgot it was on until about 15 minutes into the hour. What did you watch, ONTD?

I’ve got some big news for all my Super friends out there.

I’m hearing The CW has decided to package Smallville’s upcoming (and highly-anticipated) Justice Society-themed two-parter into a two-hour movie event airing on Jan. 29.

The Geoff Johns-penned episodes — titled “Society” and “Legends” and featuring such DC Comics stalwarts as Stargirl, Hawkman, and Dr. Fate — were originally designed to air separately. But, according to Smallville insiders, CW execs felt they could get more mileage out of combining them.

I tend do agree. Do you? Sound off in the comments!

Oh, and if you thought this scoop was super, just wait. There’s another (even bigger) Smallville-related treat coming your way later today.

Rihanna spent more than $50,000 to fly her family to New York to celebrate her Glamour Award as a thank-you for supporting her through tough times.

She flew in her mom, Monica Fenty, plus her brothers and aunts from her native Barbados to watch her pick up the Woman of the Year Award in an emotional ceremony at Carnegie Hall Monday night.

Afterward, the songbird introduced them to Iman, Serena Williams, Tyra Banks and fashion designer Stella McCartney.

Rihanna said during her tearful acceptance speech, "I really look up to my gran and my mom. They are my two women of the year . . . Without their unconditional love and guidance, I wouldn't be here."

Entertainment Weekly: "This video is AHHHHHMAZING. There are more wardrobe changes than a Mariah Carey-episode of Cribs. The choreography incorporates elements of “Thriller” and the Twist. And I don’t think Gaga has ever looked prettier than in the close-ups where she’s more stripped down. On the flip side, I love those crazy dilated pupils she sports for much of the video."

E!: "In the past, we've found her relentless ploys for attention pretty exhausting, but this music video really makes us appreciate everything Gaga actually brings to pop music. She's exciting to watch, plain and simple. Sure, her theatrics might cause a few eye-rolls, and she definitely isn't breaking any pop music conventions, but while Britney's out there making the same old boring video, we need someone like Gaga to really bring it. To put actual thought and care into her product so that it feels alive."

MTV: "So what's so great about this video? Well, of course there's the costuming and the choreography, the sly nods to Anubis Airlines from "True Blood", but aside from that, there are the scenes where we get to see the real Gaga: stripped of her makeup (and her clothes), she sings directly to the camera, a single tear trickling down her face. It's a disarming moment, a glimpse at the woman shed of her outer layers … a Gaga we rarely get to see."

Rolling Stone: "Just one album into her career, Lady Gaga has established herself as someone impervious to predictions — especially in the music video department. And the video for her first Fame Monster single, "Bad Romance," has Gaga providing fans with perhaps her craziest, brightest canvas yet. A collaboration between director Frances Lawrence and the Haus of Gaga "Bad Romance" finds Gaga simultaneously paying homage visually to Kubrick and lyrically to Hitchcock, all while dressed in some of the most outrageous outfits she’s ever worn (and that’s saying a lot)."

Continuing her Circus Tour in Australia, Britney Spears was spotted on her way to her concert in the city of Melbourne earlier today (November 11).

The “Gimme More” mommy looked to be in a good mood as she and her boys Jayden James and Sean Preston headed off to the Rod Laver Arena accompanied by boyfriend Jason Trawick.

And while her sons certainly seemed to be sleepy, Miss Spears was gearing up to go onstage as she was only about an hour away from her performance.
