The First
Lady Michelle Obama, made an appearance on
about her push for young people to commit to learning so
they can get into college and better their futures.
"I
want all people to understand that there is nothing more important they will do
for themselves than to focus on their education," Obama said . "It starts with taking high
school seriously, doing your homework and being in class on time."
Obama,
who walked onto the stage to raucous applause
sporting gray slacks, bright pink
lipstick and a
stylish leather jacket , appeared as part of her expanded
focus on helping the U.S.
"North Star" goal, which aims for the country to have the
highest proportion of college graduates in the world by 2020.
\
The
popular first lady didn't hesitate to encourage members
of the audience,
primarily made up of young African-
American students, to work hard in school.
"I
have to say, I was a pretty serious student … I wanted to
make sure that I
didn't peak in high school. You don't want
your best days to be in high
school," she said. "I wasn't
doing too much partying in high school,
I was trying to get
myself into college."
"If
I can do it, you all can do it," she added.
Obama
also waded into what her own future may hold.
"I'm
still discovering what I want to be. I'm still thinking
about what I want to do
when I leave the White House," she
said.
But
she wasn't shy about expressing what she missed about
the life she had before
her husband was elected President.
"Anonymity,"
she said in response to an audience question
on the topic. "Being able to
walk out your front door without
agents and … go to CVS to buy some
toothpaste."
She also admitted that she does regret that time she
wore shorts on Air Force One because
it caused "a huge stink."
The
"stink" she's referring to happened in August 2009 when the Obama family was on vacation
in Arizona Grand Canyon , Michelle chose to
wear a white tank, a checked button-up shirt, sneakers and
a pair of casual gray shorts. The world got a look at her outfit as she exited
Air Force One.
The
fashion choice was subject to immediate backlash, she recalled, "because
people were like, 'she's wearing shorts getting off of Air Force One.'"
Michelle added, "Sometimes I forget I'm the first lady and I'm running
around in shorts."
Michelle said she won't wear shorts on Air Force One again.
Chivago reared rap superstar Kanye
West takes fiancée Kim
Kardashian for a wild, naked
joyride in his new
“Bound 2” music video, in which the 33-
year-old reality star straddles her
fully-clothed man while he
steers a motorcycle through a desert
.
The
36-year-old rapper debuted the provocative clip
The video starts by showing off the sexy silhouette of
Kardashian’s post-baby body as she
is sprawled across the bike.
When
West belts out the lyric “one good girl is worth a
thousand b--ches,” the
parents of infant North West
in a steamy
embrace and start making out.
A
source gave an advance tease on Kardashian’s vixen role
“Kim looks beyond gorgeous,” the insider said. “It’s very
artsy, very beautiful.
“The
imagery is very colorful and light,” the insider
continued. “Nothing about it
feels pop or urban. She looks
incredible.”
DeGeneres questioned the notoriously erratic
rapper
whether being a new father has made him more conscious
of how he
expresses himself in public — then went one step
further, asking if he thinks
the video, directed by Nick
Knight, comes off as “dirty.”
“No, I’m not as concerned with the idea of profanity or
nudity,”
West said. “It’s more the messaging behind it.”
R&B superstar R. Kelly made news with his
provocative
performance with Lady gaga during her performance on
Saturday Nght
Live last Saturday on their duet, “Do What U
Want” from her newly released album, ARTPOP.
Decked in a head-to-toe white suit, the Chicago native
swooped onstage and lifted Gaga up. As each verse
switched, so did Gaga and R.
Kelly's positions. She bent
over with Kells behind her,. He grazed past body
parts and
Gaga straddled him.
Sliding around the
stage, at one point Gaga completely laid
down and R. Kelly assumed a position
on top of her. And
then did push-ups.
Her performance with R.
Kelly, however, drew mixed reactions among critics.
"Gaga really
brought the LOLZ when she was joined onstage by R. Kelly to perform their song
'Do What U Want, ' which involved the two singers, like, simulating really
awkward sex. The dry humping! The pushups! The fumbling ass slapping! This is
the strangest sexual encounter R. Kelly's had since, well, you know," The Frisky's Amelia
McDonell-Parry wrote, referring to the R&B star's sex tape scandal .
The Daily Mirror's Zoe Shenton was
equally amused, writing, "In
a ridiculously OTT performance (what did we expect, really?), a sparkling
catsuit-clad Lady Gaga and suited R. Kelly got very friendly with each other."
Likewise, Idolator's Carl Williott
said the musicians displayed "sizzling chemistry" on stage. "At
one point, R. Kelly climbed on top of Gaga and most viewers were surely bracing
for something uncouth, and well, it didn't come to that. Kells merely did a
couple push-ups over Gaga's writhing body."
Entertainment
Weekly's Erin Strecker, meanwhile, left it to readers to decide
whether the singer's duet was appropriate. "If you're going way too far on
purpose, is it really way too far?" she pondered. "Watch R. Kelly
join Lady Gaga onstage for 'Do What U Want' and decide."
Rap superstar Eminem
shared his Rolling Stone cover shot on Wednesday that goes along with an
in-depth interview reflecting upon his dark days with drugs and alcohol.
The
41-year-old St Joseph , Mo
The
rapper talked about his dark days with drugs and future projects in the
magazine hitting newsstands on Friday.
'I'm as happy as I can be, I guess,' he told Rolling Stone as he looked back on his life and
career.
'Hip-hop saved my life,
man. It’s the only thing I’ve ever been even decent at. I don’t know how to do
anything else. I think they have a word for that — what do they call it? Idiot
savant?' Eminem said.
The Slim Shady singer, real name Marshal Mathers
III , has admitted to being hospitalised in 2005
from a methadone overdose.
'I relapsed on drugs. It was a little creepy. I certainly had some dark times with that s***, mostly due to taking a lot of pills and f****** drooling on myself. It was a s***** time,' he said.
'I know I probably shaved
a few years off my life,' he added.
He also talked about the
toll his career took on his marriage to ex-wife Kim Mathers and his
relationship with 17-year-old daughter Hailie.
Eminem has been enjoying
a bit of a renaissance lately as his recent single The Monster with fellow
superstar Rihanna has been an international hit.
The singer earlier this
month released his eighth studio album The Marshall Mathers LP 2 that debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard album 200 ith first weeks sales of over 700,000 copies shipped.

St. Louis, Mo resident and
NFL veteran Dan Dierdorf, who followed a Hall of Fame career as an offensive
lineman with a three-decade career as a broadcaster, is retiring.
CBS announced this week that this season will be Dierdorf’s last
in the booth. The 64-year-old Dierdorf suggested that the physical difficulties
of traveling each week are the primary reason he has decided to step aside.
“I have been blessed to spend my entire life in the game I love,”
Dierdorf said in a statement. “I had an opportunity to go from the field
directly to the broadcast booth where I have had the privilege of working with
the giants of our business including Ray Scott, Lindsey Nelson, Jack Buck, Dick
Stockton, Al Michaels, Frank Gifford, Verne Lundquist, Dick Enberg and lastly, my
partner, Greg Gumbel. It has become a challenge for me to travel to a different
NFL city every week, so it’s time to step aside. This has been a wonderful ride
as I really have lived the dream.”
After an All-American career at Michigan broadcasting career began as soon as his playing career
ended, meaning this is his 43rd consecutive year in the NFL.

Why does it seem as though George Zimmerman is trying to get in trouble with the police? Why is Charles Manson getting married? Why was singer
Adam Levine chosen as the Sexiest Man Alive in People Magazine?
Why did Miley Cyrus blonde up her eyebrows? Why are people making a fuss over Jennifer Lawrence's haircut? Why was Rihanna chosen as the first to receive the Icon Award from the American Music Awards? And why does Morris Chestnut seem to be very uncomfortable with his sex symbol image?
