Let the music games begin…

I’m shocked that my favorite K-Pop group SHINee is planning to compete against newbies SF9 next month! The veterans and rookies have already started their album teasers. (which are both fabulous) October 5th will either be a brutal K-Pop fight up the charts, or a harmonious sharing of popularity. I’m really rooting for the rookies because they showed so much promise in their pre-debut activities.

I know SHINee will do well in the Asian market because they always do…it’s the newbies that need to be encouraged even more.

All the best to both teams next month, and I hope to see them hold shows in Chicago,IL in the near future.

Posted on September 21, 2016 by

CCM artist Chris Tomlin is set to release a classic in the making on October 4th. His adorable children’s book “Good Good Father” perfectly illustrates the kind of unconditional love God has for Christians.

In the 32 page book, a little bear named Tucker is determined to help his animal friends who have a variety of issues ranging from sickness, hunger, fighting and more.  In order to find a way to help all his friends be happy and whole, he decided to visit the generous King in the land and ask for his help. Along the way, many animals suggest he bring certain types of gifts to the King that coincides with His Majesty’s many talents. When he finally brings all the gifts to the King, Tucker realizes he was more precious to his Royal Highness than any gift he could ever bring.

This book instantly brought back all those warm childhood memories that definitely included reading cheerful books such as this one. The “Good Good Father” is sure to bring a smile to you and your children’s faces and will have you wanting to read it over and over again. I highly recommend all ages check out this gem next month.

*BTSCelebs thanks The M Collective for the complimentary digital copy of the book.*

Book Review: Stacey Dash’s “There Goes My Social Life: From Clueless to Conservative”

Posted on September 15, 2016 by

Stacey Dash’s debut book There Goes My Social Life: From Clueless to Conservative is the most incredible roller coaster ride ever! Her autobiography is raw, open and honest to a fault. And I have to say….. I love her for it.

To be completely honest, Ms. Dash’s messy life (in her early years), blunt political views and long journey to redemption is a tough pill to swallow. It took me months to finally finish reading it! I was horrified by the cursing and descriptions of the many levels of abuse. So, I can say that I was overcome with emotion while reading the 246 pages of her book. I was heartbroken by the retelling of abuse and neglect she endured as a child. Her promiscuous young adult life left me completely baffled. But, her ultimate acceptance of salvation through Jesus Christ is what won me over.

Now, I don’t agree with everything she stated in the book. (Example: I don’t talk politics, because I think everyone should do their own research when it comes to candidates.) Nonetheless, I respect her for telling her life story and trusting the world to accept her as she is. That is not an easy thing to do!  I applaud her for taking off any mask and coming clean.

If you are looking to read an autobiography sans sugarcoating that has a happy ending, this book is for you.

*A Special Thanks to Regnery Publishing for a complimentary copy of the book.*

Go Bears!

The Bears put up a great fight today, but they weren’t quite able to surpass the Houston Texans on the scoreboard. 14 to 23 was the final score.

Nonetheless, Bears’ player Kyle Long refused to let his team’s first loss of the season get him down. The NFL guard decided to share a empowering message to his fans and teammates via Twitter to let them know he is ready to take on any challenge this season.

“I’m a man. I stand for a few things. I share those same sentiments with my teammates. We lost a tough one. We never lay down our swords. I know the men I share the locker room with. I’m excited 2watch how we react to today’s game. I know how I will respond. I know how WE will. 

Big shoutout to all the Navy and Orange in the stadium today.”

In his first best-selling book “Through My Eyes”, Tim Tebow admitted that he was a dedicated baseball player long before he ever thought about joining the NFL. His first dream came true today when the New York Mets announced they officially signed him. He is starting off in their minor leagues, but he is well on his way to becoming the next baseball star!

Congratulations to Tim Tebow!
