I remember when she landed the female lead in the remake of "A Star is Born" and cursed the movie.
"A Star is Born" still does not have a male lead, despite a three year search during which Tom Cruise, Leonardo DiCaprio, Johnny Depp, Will Smith, Russell Crowe, Hugh Jackman, Robert Downey Jr, Eminem, Christian Bale, Jon Hamm, and Bradley Cooper have all turned down the role.
At a political event in Wilmington, Delaware, on Thursday, President Obama devoted only 40 seconds to the shooting down of the Malaysian airline, his first statement to the world following the news.
His emotionless reference to the attack as ‘a terrible tragedy’ seemed disconnected from the horrific moment, particularly as he immediately reverted to script to praise his administration and criticise Republicans.
It was a far cry from President Reagan’s 1983 fierce denunciation of the Soviet shooting down of a Korean airliner as a ‘crime against humanity’.
But it only confirmed the chaos into which US foreign policy has descended since the summer of 2012 when reporters at a White House briefing asked Mr Obama about the security of chemical weapons in the Syrian stockpile.
The commander in chief went beyond safety and said: ‘We have been very clear to the Assad regime … that a red line for us is [when] we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilised.’
The term ‘red line’ is the kind of clear, emphatic language major powers use only when they are prepared to back words with action.
A little over a year later, the Assad regime utilised chemical weapons against its own people.
The number of blunders that the President and his administration committed in the ‘red line’ affair is hard to fathom.
Before the President spoke, no one vetted the term and its consequences in the White House policy process and, once the words came out, no one undertook preparations in case Syrian president Bashar al-Assad called Mr Obama’s bluff.
According to reports, no one made the diplomatic rounds to line up the support of allies just in case, or the congressional rounds to line up the support of Congress. No one developed military plans or sent quiet signals to Assad that the US was not to be trifled with on this matter.
These actions are routine when any White House makes as definitive a commitment as the President made, except, apparently, this White House.
Even bigger blunders came after the Syrian chemical attack. Mr Obama began signalling that, despite his remark, he did not want a response, any response. First there was the verification charade. Multiple eyewitness accounts of rockets rising out of Syrian army installations and falling into the stricken zones at the time of the chemical attacks were not enough to warrant quick action.
Then there was his call for a congressional vote, delivered just when the need to respond was most urgent if air strikes were to deliver an effective message.

said from day, Obama is one of THE worst Presidents to ever sit office. all his rhetoric to Russia/Putin is just that...rhetoric. he's too weak to even attempt to oust him from power, or to begin a war. him [and America, Britain] have literally Ray Charles'd the entire Palestine situation bc they have indirectly helped fund Israel's attacks.
furthermore, the situation in America has not changed. remember his claims to get rid of GiTMO Bay? remember how long its taken Obamacare to actually head into the House? what actual policies or change has he done. pretty sure the whole Bin Laden scenario was doctored to help his dwindling public image. and what annoys me most is the fact he's basically given a #freepass because of his ethnicity.
he's nothing more than a glorified jayoncé fanboy. bitch ass *****.

Not just Obama. Cameron, Hollande and Merkel are all ****ing terrible. To **** with "economic sanctions".
Syria is lying in ruins, ISIS are killing whoever the hell they like without consequence, Russia are shooting innocent people down from the sky, Israel have launched an air and ground offensive on Gaza civilians without any international outcry, Boko Haram are murdering hundreds more people every day, no action is being taken on global warming/peak oil/peak water.
We're edging more and more towards a new Cold War with proxy wars going on everywhere. No leader this time has the balls to take any action though, and the EU, UNSC and NATO continue to prove how worthless they really are.
But that's just me.
On topic: if I woke up in the morning and had acne and facial scarring like Katy, I'd go back to bed.
Oh and can we talk about how OVER Liver**** are without Suarez?
Top 4 are Man City/Chelsea/Man Utd (with 2/3 more big signings)/Arsenal; not sure on the order. Rodgers is a ****ing terrible manager and his inexperience is going to be shown this season against Mourinho/Wenger/Van Gaal/Pellegrini.

Planet Earth is not a good place to live anymore ... that's already a well established fact
