I wish this was just a joke. Instead it is Tom Cruise in his one look that people actually liked in the past five years. Tom is dressed as the guy from Tropic Thunder and Jenifer Lopez "sings" a song that was actually popular awhile go. Never let it be said the two won't do anything to resurrect their career. I'm actually surprised that Tom doesn't permanently convert to bald. Did I like it? Sure. Did I think I was being manipulated? Absolutely.
excellent playback, jenny...so good to see you keep doing what you do best.
ReplyDeleteYou see this is the reason that JLO messes things up.
ReplyDelete"That's the way you entertain on MTV" she should be thankful that they let her has been ass take the stage for the last time she was relevant was over 6 years ago.
I love her but she pisses me off everytime her Diva act comes out.
Does anyone else feel like that was a sly MV reveal???
ReplyDeleteNo. I am pretty sure MV is not J.LO.
ReplyDeleteThe fact that the world's greatest action movie star has to lower himselft to get into Norbit sytle make up to win the favor of fans again. Just makes me chuckle.
ReplyDeleteI think J.Lo was more sad then Tom. At least Tom has a shtick she was just trying to be relevant and is failing. And every day I think J.Lo is MV her voice from On the 6 (which I loved) to her latest cat wailing is just night and day.
I can't bring myself to watch that clip. Not that I care about either one of these people, but I don't think I'm strong enough to stomach whatever Tom and JLO are selling.
ReplyDeletePs: I'm new here, so can someone fill me on the "MV" situation? Many thanks!
Video yanked before I could see it. Damn
ReplyDeleteNisa, it was a long blind about a very famous singer who doesn't do their own singing. The most popular guesses at the moment are Britney Spears and J Lo. I'm not on either of those trains myself, but I'm the minority there *L*
ReplyDeleteAwww, dang it. Viacom has taken the clip down.
ReplyDeletetotally agree enty..but damn it was funny.
ReplyDeleteas for jlo being MV, i don't buy it.
her voice has always been shit,she is just attempting more live shows since she married Skeletor.
I think it was interesting to see Tommy doing whatever he can to appeal to the younger crowd. His crazy behavior has made him do this, I found it fun to watch. Jlo is just annoying.
ReplyDeleteNisa,
ReplyDeleteMV was used as the nickname for the subject of a long, serious Blind Item of Enty's a while back. It's short for Milli Vanilli and was an appropriate moniker for the Blind since those guys never sang their own songs, either.
Some of us feel the true ID of MV is someone mind-blowing, whom the world THINKS can really and truly sing for real such as Whitney or Celine or Xtina...along those lines.
Some of us CDANers don't think it's J.Lo or Britney or Madonna or someone of that ilk because nobody should be truly surprised that none of them can actually sing.
Hell, even on their best recordings those people have aleways sounded "engineered."
But to find out that Celine Dion, for example, really can't sing would be pretty dang surprising.
Anyway, hope this helps!
And, welcome!!!
Oooh, thanks for the update. God, if it is Celine, one of my old coworkers will probably kill herself or someone else, and I'm not even joking.
ReplyDeleteRemember that Beyonce thing that was "leaked" where she was performing somewhere and supposedly singing like a tortured cat into a mic that had been turned down, all while a prerecorded track was being played for the audience? Was that eventually proved to be a hoax? I know it was denied by her camp (of course), but for some reason, that was the first thing that came to mind after reading the "MV" mystery. Hope we can learn the true identity at some point!
I have to admit, I laughed like crazy (I adore Tropic Thunder, watch the unrated Director's Cut, the Blu Ray is gorgeous, seriously, that was a beautiful film, seriously!) until they kept cutting to Katie in the audience, come on people, way to ruin any pretense at accepting this guy as the character, even for a skit that was working. Not meta, just meh.
ReplyDeleteThe Beyonce board feed thing turned out to be a hoax...we also know that MV has at least one child. She is married.
ReplyDeleteAd if people found out that it's not her singing, it would "shake the music industry to its core".
I was never a fan of Tropic Thunder and while I am kind of rooting for ole Tom (if he can get from the CO$), I don't get why we had to see a character from a 2008 movie....?
ReplyDeleteThe dancing was kind of funny...I guess.
Also, Beyonce has been ruled out along with Mandy Moore, Pink, Norah Jones, Celine Dion, Shania Twain, Mariah Carey. We have been told that MV has at least one kid and is or has been married. She has been through a divorce or separation. What we don't really know is the exact time frame of the blind. We know MV has had several top 40 hits and has released more than one album.
ReplyDeleteOMG now I'm all up in this BI's bidness again. I better get back to work *L*
ok i knew as soon as a iraed the quotes around sings that people would say that she is mv for the last time, the blind clearly says MV owed her fame to the real singer. JLO got an album because she wqas getting famnous, through dancing and acting. At the time of her breakout role, selena, she is interviewed talkinhg about how she cannot sing!!! she doesnt fit the blind! Although i do agree that enty is hinting towards her, pob just cuz ur all so convinced she is MV!
ReplyDeleteOooo @Harriet, don't forget that MV was also definitely born in America... Argh I'm all addicted again now too.
ReplyDeleteI also don't think it's J-LO (it's no secret Ashanti did a lot of her singing, is it?) and I don't think if it was Brit it would surprise that many people at this point.
I'm in the Whitney camp.
Actually, I was thinking if it was Janet Jackson, THAT would be mind-blowing, because although she purports to never have had children, there are heavy rumors that one of her nieces is her daughter.
ReplyDeleteSorry Enty, but you couldn't pay me to watch anything that Cruise or J.Lo is in, even if it is for a scant 3 minutes.
ReplyDeleteI saw the clip on another site (OK so it was Kneepads) and I thought it was hilarious except it went on too long.
ReplyDeleteI have to admit - Tom Cruise was the only good thing on that show.
ReplyDeleteCeline Dion couldn't be MV even if she was foreign-born. She sings a lot better in French.
Even though she has already been ruled out, Celine is not MV. Hush your mouths! She is awesome, I've heard her live (and not afraid to admit it!!!)
ReplyDeleteI kinda hate to fan fuel to the flames but there are MULTIPLE MV's out there. As a singer, I know of other singers who make their living as the 'voice of'. Britney and Hillary Duff to name 2.
MV is J.Lo, I remember reading a cryptic reference to this blind on Laineygossip a few months ago in a post about J.Lo.
