Ms. Amber Riley

I have a guilty pleasure. It isn't chocolate or pop or French Fries or anything potentially damaging to my health; it's Glee. No matter if the music is cheesy, these guys are talented (having 3 former Broadway performers doesn't hurt). So today, I present to you Ms. Amber Riley (Mercedes), singing "And I Am Telling You" by Jennifer Hudson. This girl is for real! Her range is off the charts, has a great falsetto and hit the last note perfectly just before running out of breath only to then deliver a bone-chilling ending. I mean this is Grammy-award winning Jennifer Hudson on the original, so props to Riley for even showing up to compete on this one, let alone smashing it.

As the story goes, Riley tried out for American Idol but didn't do so well and was not asked to advance. After Adam Lambert's recent debacle, and Ellen DeGeneres replacing Paula Abdul, I'm sure Idol is looking for some clean press before the new season premieres January 12th. Glee on the other hand just finished its fall season tonight and only starts again on April 13th and will now be airing on Tuesdays, rather than Wednesdays.

My goodness...

The dismal Cleveland Browns have openly said they would give Lebron James a shot at playing football. Originally the opinion was that Lebron could play any of "tight end, wide receiver or even outside linebacker". After this, I think they deserve to give him a shot at quarterback especially considering their options of Brady Quinn or Derek Anderson are weak (at best).
