Well, if you tuned into the X Factor last week, you may have seen the young starlet being eliminated off of the hit reality TV show. The decision came down to Nicole Sherzinger, who couldn’t decide and sent the vote into a tiebreaker… which resulted in the ousting of Crow. That wasn’t even the rough part… after finding out she was eliminated, Rachel Crow started to BALL on stage… and it was rough. Considering Rachel is only 13 years old… that is a LOT of pressure to put on the little girl, and there has got to be a lot of different emotions to deal with. It kind of brings up the point whether or not 13-years old is too young to be in the celebrity spotlight.

Not your typical business man…
“Here are the men who have the inside track. Here are all the expensive commodities, to which the rich seem appendages. Here is the money talking in its husky, silky voice of cash, power, celebrity” (C. Wright Mills).
When one thinks of men who have created empires within their industry… names like Calvin Klein and Donald Trump come to mind. However, you don’t need to build towering skyscrapers or stitch high quality suits to become kings of industry. If you just google the name “Jay-Z”… his success is obvious within the music industry and not only has he been quite the featured artist himself… he has made himself of the tycoons of the music industry. Pay homage my friends.

Roots take a subtle shot at Bachmann
Recently, Republican presidential hopeful was invited to Late Night with Jimmy Fallon for an interview. The Roots, the house band for the show, are also quite politically active themselves, except on the different side of the political spectrum. At the beginning of the show, the band hinted that they had something “special” planned for Bachmann. Later on in the show, when Bachmann comes out, The Roots played, “Lyin’ Ass Bitch” by Reel Big Fish, as her intro music. Luckily for the show, Bachmann didn’t pick up on the subtle reference, and the interview went swimmingly. Fallon later took to his twitter and made a public apology for The Roots’ subtle bashing. What a clever way to express your thoughts! Bravo Roots!
