Oops, Halle Berry Did It Again!

It's Not The First Time
Halle Berry
In some of her best work, Halle Berry does a dramatic reading on the level of Shakespeare of Britney Spears' first hit song, Oops I Did It Again for W Magazine.

Hilarious! No word on what Brit Brit's take is on it yet, but how could you not love this unexpected, who the Hell came up with this off the cuff idea, silliness?!

FYI - to all you Britney fans like Halle. Britney is helping to provide aid to the victims of the flood in her home state of Louisiana by offering a meet and greet for one lucky fan who donates.

Since Berry is obviously a fan I'm sure she has already given.

Reading Oops I Did It Again, drum roll please..... Halle Berry!

Happy Father's Day!

Me and My Dad, Bill Shinafelt

Today is the day that we honor our Fathers, "yes" it's Father's Day people! I have a request of all of you, if your Dad is still living please let him know you love him today. Whether it be a phone call, card, Facebook post on his wall or some sort of gift.

A Father's love should be unconditional and I was lucky enough to have a Dad whose was.

My Father is deceased and I miss him all of the time. He passed away February 23, 2009. The cause of his death was lung cancer. His doctors gave him six months to live, he then decided to quit smoking his beloved pipe. He lived for three years and died two days after his 76th Birthday.

In honor of my Father I would like to take this moment to draw attention to two things. 

First smoking is directly related to cancer, if you think it isn't you are wrong. When my Dad went into a hospice and died two days later after his three year long battle he was next to a gentleman who had also been given six months to live, but did not quit smoking. Guess what? Unlike my Dad who gave it up and survived three years after his diagnosis, the other man passed within that given time frame.

In short, smoking blows, literally if you smoke please stop. 

Second cancer is the number one cause of death in the world and trust me, it's not a pretty one. Please let's never forget that, for more information about cancer and to donate towards fighting it please click on the link to The American Cancer Society below.

Happy Father's Day, Dad!

Hey Aisha Tyler, Just Say Not To The Topknot

When Did Pebbles Flintstone Join "The Talk?"

Women now have a hair style to rival the hideous Man Bun which is overwhelmingly reviled among the public yet some men still insist on wearing them. It's called the Topknot, and one of my favorite personalities Aisha Tyler made the poor decision call of sporting this parasitic looking style.

Of course people took to Twitter to voice how much they hated it and for some reason Aisha felt picked on and defended her fashion error. 

Aisha went on The Talk stating: “I work on television and I feel very lucky that I get to come here and play and be playful and have fun.” then she went as far to say “If I came out here and I was worried about how you felt about about how I looked every day, then I would be a pretty empty shell of a person.”

Um, Aisha I think you are taking this to heart way to much. I mean the rants said you are "pretty and why would you wear such a thing"

That does not sound like hating or bullying it sounds like caring. Seriously like the Man Bun the Topknot does the person wearing it no favors. No one looks good with it!

I Still love you Aisha at:

"Life Is Like A Jackie Collins Novel"


"Life is like a Jackie Collins novel" - Michael Shinafelt

This startling revelation caught me by surprise somewhere back in 2010 when I was dating an actor half my age and juggling both our schedules and different friends and careers, mine being of course a writer, actor etc...So I immediately posted my momentary genius on my Facebook page and took it to Twitter!

After having been in Hollywood for 20 plus years it hit me like a bolt of lightning at that point and time in my life that "yes" me and my then boyfriend could easily be a basis for characters in one of her books! 

Funny when I was growing up as a young lad in Washington State I used to find her potboilers entertaining, but thought that her statement that the characters and events were based on reality a bit of a stretch.

Yeah, well living in Hollywood I have been proven wrong on the abovementioned notion. 

A few of my favorite Jackie yarns? Hollywood Wives was my favorite! Honorable mention goes to Lady Boss and Lucky.

She was a woman who lived a great and fascinating life. Someone who I wished I had met, so I could have had a character based on me in one of her escapist treatise. 

R.I.P. Lovely lady, you made reality entertaining.

"I was doing a show two nights ago," she said, "and I was wearing butterfly nipple pasties and butterfly wings. I'm standing there with my t---s out, dressed like a butterfly. How the f--- is that fair? How am I so lucky?" - Miley Cyrus, Paper Magazine

Miley Cyrus is a great singer and a fearless human being!

She got naked with her pig Bubba Sue for the cover of Paper Magazine to draw attention to her Happy Hippie Foundation, which is focused on helping homeless and LGBT youth to encourage them to "use their voice!" Like she does.

Cyrus realizes how lucky she has it and gives 110% to everything she does, she rulz!
