Susan Boyle, a 47 year old charity worker from a small village in Scotland has shocked the world with a brilliantly unexpected performance on the hit show “Britain’s Got Talent”. Click here to watch the video of her performance that has now been seen by millions of people worldwide.

Perhaps the most impressive part of this performance was the expression on Simon Cowell’s face. The usually cynical judge was awestruck. It’s one thing for the world to be impressed. It’s another altogether for Simon Cowell to react the way he did. Clearly Ms. Boyle left a very good first impression on him.

…and Paris Hilton is about to be.. In jail that is. Maybe next time she will pay more attention to the rules of the road. Anyway, enough about her. Pirates 3 star Johnny Depp took home a trophy with producer Jerry Bruckheimer. It’s funny how Depp even managed to land his role in the popular movies. Apparently everybody thought he was not going to work out when they first started filming on the first movie. Then at the awards Bruckheimer was quoted saying “This is the man who did it all right here, Johnny Depp. Without him, we wouldn’t be here.” That’s probably true, and I find this pretty funny considering that Orlando Bloom and Kierra Knighly were both successful actors before the Pirates series as well.

Bloom had just finished coming off of his role as Legolas the elf in Lord of the Rings when he took the role of Will Turner in the popular pirate movies. I find it even more funny to know that originally Depp truly was planned to be a bad unlikable character in the script. Apparently his personality and “actual bad guy” didn’t entirely jive and instead we are left with a drunk pirate with too much eye shadow and a taste for rum. He certainly stole the show though. Without him, the pirates movies would be nothing more than Legolas and “that L’Oreal model from Pride & Prejudice.”

On a closing note, 9-year old Jaden Smith (son of Will Smith) won the award of “breakthrough performance” for his role playing Christopher Gardner’s (Will Smith) son in “The Pursuit of Happyness.” If you haven’t seen that movie yet I would definitely recommend it. It is very inspirational and shows you a true story about a man who chose not to be denied.

In other news, pop singer Britney Spears has shaved her head completely bald. Rumor has it that this was a direct result of a confrontation she had with ex-husband Kevin Federline. He had threatened to have her hair tested to find out exactly what she’s been up to.

As can be expected when something like this happens, the jokes are flying off the shelves. David Letterman and Jay Leno of course had quite a good laugh over the singer’s recent antics, but I have to tip my hat to Craig Ferguson, who took the higher road this time around.

Ferguson has been known to have a good laugh at Britney’s expense on his “The Late Late Show” on CBS, but this time around he received a standing ovation in the media for his lack of jokes. He felt that joking about Spears was not the answer this time around, and stated that she clearly needs help. His comments were genuine and well received by fans nationwide.

I guess the only question left is will Britney keep up the new look and go with wigs. She’s already been spotted wearing various wigs around town.

We’ all know the story. An eccentric lady named Cruella Deville kidnaps 101 Dalmatian puppies in order to create the ultimate fur coat. As the story progresses, we learn that animals are in fact capable of devising elaborate escape plans. If you’ve seen the movies, then you are well aware of many of these tactics never before seen on the Discovery Channel. (Why is that?)

Anyway, we’ve recently read some shocking news that could put the kibosh on the believability of the 101 Dalmatians story, or at least raise some questions. Modonna, (whom we all know and love) is turning the tables on the animals where Cruella Deville could not. She was recently spotted wearing a $70,000 fur coat made entirely out of chinchilla skins. So somewhere in Hollywood, a pet store is missing around 40 Chinchillas.

More importantly, somewhere in Hollywood, roughly 40 Chinchillas are missing their fur coats.
