TIME TO GET ON STAGE!!!
This year this blog celebrated a milestone
this year as this blogspot will turn 10 years old!
Its hard to believe but it has come a long way from
small paragraphs journal entries, to a mini news
letter to entertainment highlighter to what it is today.
The commemorative date was July 8., 2005
NOTE: Starting Jan 7, 2016, OUTSTAGN will no longer chronicle entertainment news
but focus more on self promotion of projects, commentary on entertainment stories, reviews of entertainment mediums (TV shows, movies, theater, social media films, etc) and features on artists (local or nationwide). We will continue with the regular segments ARTIST SPOTLIGHT, FIT BITZ, WHO GOT STYLE, DISHN and WORDS TO THE WHYZ. Also, we wont necessarily post weekly.

THE TOP ILLI MO STORIES THIS WEEK ARE:
President Barack Obama has become the first sitting president to participate in a reality show, NBC’s “Running Wild with Bear Grylls.”
The special episode featuring Obama airing Dec. 17 was filmed in early September, while POTUS was in Alaska to attend the Conference on Global Leadership in the Arctic. Grylls promises it will show “a side of the president you never have seen before” as Obama opens up to the host about his fears and family.
You all know whats next...cameos on TV shows . Can't you all see him on an episode of Empire? He was referenced on that show last season when Luscious Lyon called him. So it's just a matter of time.
FLOTUS is getting her flow to promote college education. In a new rap video powered by CollegeHumor, First Lady Michelle Obama teams with Saturday Night Live comic Jay Pharoah to kick a few rhymes in the name of higher learning.
"Southside Chicago / We all know / We had to do overtime every night to make it tomorrow," she raps. "And everyone could really make their dream true / Hey kid, listenin' in Michigan, that could be you."
According to a statement from the Office of the First Lady, the music video collaboration aims to bring awareness to Mrs. Obama's Better Make Room campaign, which launched as part of her Reach Higher campaign to celebrate students' stories.
This is a great idea. She and her husband have breaking so many barriers in pop culture and this is just one of many. She did the Turnip Vine last year so this is right on time....we waiting to see if this will lead to a mixtape. LOL
And speaking of the Presidential Couple,in an exclusive interview with PEOPLE for a Campaign 2016 special feature in this week's magazine, Michelle reveals she can't get enough of "Uptown Funk" by Bruno Mars, while her husband says he's all about Kendrick Lamar's "How Much a Dollar Cost."
The president also says his favorite book of 2015 is Fates and Furies by Lauren Groff, a novel that explores the key to a great marriage from two different perspectives. Topping the First Lady's book list is another portrait of a marriage, The Light of the World, Elizabeth Alexander's memoir about the sudden death of her husband.

According to reports, The St. Louis Board of Aldermen are considering the city's share of funding for a new NFL stadium. The Ways and Means Committee voted 7 to 2 to approve the $150 million spending plan of the $1 billion project.
The 7-2 vote moves the bill to the full Board of Aldermen. The board will reportedly debate the bill today but must reportedly call a special session for next week to vote on the plan. Even if the full board approves the bill, the city must reportedly still secure funds for construction from the NFL and team owner.The NFL has set a deadline of December 30th for the full stadium financing proposal to be submitted.
Opponents say projected costs overruns would reportedly add about $5 million a year in unfunded liability.
Alderwoman Megan Green, who opposes the funding plan, reportedly tweeted about deal cutting and bribery but did not make any specific allegations. The St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported that St Lousi Comptroller Darlene Green has been in contact with the FBI.
The league is expected to decide next month if a team will move to Los Angeles.
WOW, this is getting scandalous! Now there have been reports that Alderman Antonio French had proposed a minority amendment in the bill for talks of minority and female participation in the construction of the stadium, but that was all that was amended, nothing etched in stone. This was supposedly what got the majority of the alderpeople to vote for it. The way it looks, the bill will pass, the city taxes may or may not be risen (from Alderman Chris Carter who voted against the bill said taxes wont be raised but other means will be used), minorities may likely will be hired as flaggers during the construction to save face and the Rams will leave and a new team will be brought in before the 2016 Football Season starts . So they have eight months to get a stadium built? Thats going to be a pressure cooker.
According to stltoday.com, Nelly’s annual Black and White Ball will be moving from December to April.
Event producer Amit Dhawan of SYNERGY Productions announced this week that the new date will be April 10 at the Four Seasons Hotel in downtown St Louis. It also will be the special 10th anniversary edition of the Black and White Ball.
The event, presented by Plaza Motors and Mercy, will raise funds for Make-A-Wish Missouri.
There was no reason presented as to why the event was moved. One could just speculate

Why did Donald Trump say that Muslims need to be banned from the United States? Why did Supreme Court Justice Scalia say that black people are better off attending less challenging schools and universities" Why did Fox News's Stacey dash and Lt Col Ralph Peters make disparaging remarks about President Obama? Why did Chloe Kardashian act like she made those pies when she actually bought them? Why did Kanye and Kim call their son "Saint?" Why are so many R&B artists covering Adele's song, "Hello?" Why is dabbin a dance craze? And why are hover boards so popular?
