The Blind Side star Sandra Bullock has revealed her generous side yet again by donating $1 million to the American Red Cross to aid victims of the earthquake and tsunami in Japan. Sandra donated $2 million to the Red Cross in 2001 following the September 11 terror attacks, $1 million for tsunami relief in 2004, and yet another $1 million to Doctors Without Borders to benefit victims in Haiti in January 2010.
I was in the winter of my life…and the men I met along the road were my homely summer. At night I fell asleep with visions of myself dancing and laughing and crying with them. Three years down the line of being on an endless road toward and my memories of them were the only things that sustained me…and my only real happy times. I was a singer…not a very popular one; I once had dreams of becoming a beautiful poet. But a plan and a series of unfortunate events saw those dreams dash and divide like a million stars in the night sky, that I wished on over and over again, sparkling and broken. But I didn’t really mind it because I knew that, that it takes getting everything you ever wanted and then losing it, to know what true freedom is. And when the people I used to know found out what I’d been doing, how I’d been living…they asked me why, but there’s no use in talking to people who have a home. They have no idea what it’s like to seek safety in other people…for a home to be wherever you lie your head. I was always an unusual girl. My mother told me I had a chameleon soul, no moral compass pointing due north, no fixed personality. Just a hint of indecisiveness that was just as wide and wavering as the ocean. And if I said I didn’t plan for it to turn out this way, I’d be lying…because I was born to be the other woman. I belonged to no one, who belonged to everyone. Who had nothing, who wanted everything. With a fire for every experience, and an obsession for freedom, that terrified me to the point that I couldn’t even talk about it. And pushed me to a nomadic point of madness that both dazzled and dizzied me.
Every night I used to pray that I’d find my people. And finally I did, on the open road. We had nothing to lose, nothing to gain, nothing we desired anymore. Except to make our lives into a work of art. Live fast…die young…be wild and have fun. I believe in the country America used to be. I’ll believe in the person I want to become. I believe in the freedom of the open road. And my motto is the same as ever. I believe in the kindness in strangers. And when I’m at war with myself, I ride. I just ride. Who are you? Are in touch with all of your darkest fantasies? Have you created a life for yourself, where you can experience them? I have. I am ****ing crazy. But I am free.
Are you surprised that LA radio is playing DeadGa again? I thought Applause would end her once and for all on the radio but I'm actually hearing her more than I have since 2010.
it's not the kats
it's just you along with other monsters posting blatant flamebait outside of SYG
I hope we will still have some monsters left on ATRL when ARTPOP gets released
Rihanna and Lana are already legends. That's what you get for making music you like rather than cater to what you think a certain group of people wants to hear.
Even when she is ostensibly writing about her own life, Perry’s lyrics feel generalized to the point that they could be about anyone at all. This is part of Perry’s brilliance in the pop market — she makes utilitarian music that most people can see themselves in — but the result is a bunch of one-size-fits-all greeting card songs that lack depth or character. While the universal sentiments of Teenage Dream seemed sort of incidental, it all feels very deliberate and calculated on Prism. The album is exactly what people who hate pop music assume all pop music is like: shallow, vapid, safe, and very cynical in its eagerness to please. Songs like “Roar” and “Unconditionally” are so generic that pretty much anyone could sing them and it’d have the same effect. Beyond the smirks, winks, and platitudes, there’s not much of a person at the center of Prism.

Hitler donated to charities as well. Does that make him a good person? Lol Sandra bullock was married to a neo-nazi for years, her grandparents are from Nuremburg (the ceremonial birthplace of the Nazi party) and she adopted a black baby once rumors of her being racist started to spread (where does she hide the child nowadays by the way?). And I doubt that article is even true. She looks too cheap (she looked like a cheap hooker at this UK talk show the other week) to donate millions.
