Nicki Minaj Shows Up Late to ‘American Idol’ Taping, Blames Traffic
64 days ago

I remember hearing a sermon years ago on the 10 commandments. When The preacher got to "Thou shalt not steal", I was nearly alseep, but then he said something that changed my life. He said that commandment meant more than just taking things from others, it also means taking some one else's TIME as well! Who am I to hold up a wedding, a party, a work shift, or even a TV show? He preached about not being where we should be (on time) was a selfish act and distracts others from the purpose of me being there in the first place. I am ALWAYS on time! LOL* Well, mostly, anyways. I sure do try hard to be on time, and sometimes I show up 30 mins to an hour early so as not to be late.

When my kids were growing up, I used to tell them "if you want to stay out of trouble, don't do things that draw attention". Perhaps Nicki is just now learning these lessons or maybe she has a need for critical attention. Ya know, even bad attention is attention, and she thrives on keeping controversy and attention on herself. I am not watching AI this season, she's just so unpleasant both in her looks as well as her words. Not my kind of person, I hope this is the only season she is on as a judge.

Savannah Guthrie Takes Ann Curry's Spot on 'Today'

Sorry, I hate the way they did Ann Curry, and I hope savannah chokes! I hope Matt does too! What scum he turned out to be. Today will have to get rid of his caustic and ugly bald arrogant demeanor to save the show. I won't watch it anymore and I've watched it since Dave Garroway was the anchor!! Good Morning America!!
