“Make It Pop” Releases First Trailer For New Season

XO_IQ

We are less than two weeks away from the premiere of season 2 of “Make It Pop“! Sun Hi, Jodi and Corki promise great tunes, dance moves and cutesy lighthearted story-lines.

I can’t wait to see who Sun Hi is paired with this season. She was the only XO-IQ member without a boyfriend last season. I secretly wish it could be SHINee member, but I’ll look forward to whomever Nickelodeon chooses.

Check out the newly released trailer below:

U-KISS’ Kevin Woo Stands Up for the Good Guys

KevinWoo

Marriage is BAE!

I gotta be 100% honest. I was never a U-KISS fan because their music didn’t appeal to me. However, the recent marriages of Dong Ho, Eli and even the strong Christian faith of Kevin Woo has persuaded me to have a newfound respect for the band. U-KISS seems to be indirectly standing up for the many good guys in the world. Good guys do exist!

Kevin Woo’s recent message alone is so admirable. Check out the tweets from December 6:

“I respect Eli’s decision as a member and as a friend. Marriage should not be something to be ashamed of or hidden. If you truly care for him and U-KISS please show support. Congratulations @EliKim0313”

Bravo, Kevin! I sincerely hope he shares the joyous news of his engagement and marriage in the future. She will be one blessed lady.

Movie Review: UP’s “A Baby For Christmas”

ABabyForChristmas

UP tv’s newest holiday film “A Baby For Christmas” is a warmhearted film with a very happy ending.

The movie is all about the Chandler Family dealing with their individual struggles and stressing out before Christmas Day. Parents-to-be Marci (Malinda Williams) and Blair (Karon Riley) are prepping to bring a genius baby girl into the world, while Aunt Elizabeth (Chrystale Wilson) is competing like crazy for a coveted promotion and Aunt Myra (DeEtta West) and Uncle Donald (Greg Alan Williams) trying to find purpose in life during their retirement and more. The sweet children at a local orphanage and the baby on the way help them recapture the peace and happiness of Christmas.

Personally, I was a little disappointed about a couple things in the film. The excessive use of OMG wasn’t necessary and the PDA between Stephanie (Victoria Rowell) and Lawrence (Kristoff St. John) was overwhelming at times.  Other than that, the movie was a nice family program that many may enjoy this Christmas season.

“A Baby For Christmas” premieres tomorrow at 7PM [EST} on UP tv.
