POP Culture at a glance....and not in a glass!!


2010 witnessed the return of Kanye West, and welcomed rappers Drake and Nicki Minaj, both long awaited projects were met with a huge reception. Some misses last year were Christina Aguilera's "Bionic" and a Mariah Carey CD that never caught the attention of the American audience, so her record label decided to shelve it and a few months later, they released a 'so so' Christmas CD.

The Miami Heat met with The Los Angeles Lakers on Christmas day ONLY to silence the Lakers by putting a whomping on that *ss.

2010 gave us a big scare the Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin was diagnosed with "pancreatic cancer" thankfully her surgery was very successful, and the Queen is resting @ home.

Lady GaGa ruled the music charts, but she's nothing new, and has Diana Ross, Cher, Barbara Streisand, Bette Midler and Madonna to thank for her success. The thing that I love most about GaGa is that she was discovered by rapper/singer Akon, so everytime she's gets paid...he REALLY gets paid!

Congrats goes out to Nicole Richie, singer Shania Twain and actress Valarie Bertinelli all said their "I Do's" recently.

2010 we said goodbye to legendary film and recording star Lena Horne, Elizabeth Edwards, actor Gary Coleman, the Golden Girls star Rue McClanahan, Mission Impossible star Peter Graves, The Gap Band bassist Robert Wilson, movie director/writer, Blake Edwards,singers Teddy Pendergrass and blue eyed soul starlet Teena Marie....gone but not forgotten.
