The final Idol finale... for now

Hello my butterflies!

Yesterday was the final Idol finale! Wow, I can't believe American Idol is actually over! Or is it?? Only time will tell, but anyway, here are my highlights from last night's spectacle.

  • I loved the medleys. It was so cool to see so many superstars that got their start on the show back on the Idol stage. 
  • Kelly Clarkson's hit medley was awesome! So many of those songs were my jam when they came out. When her 'Breakaway' album first came out, it was one of the only albums I listened to!
  • It was great to see Carrie Underwood and Keith Urban performing together. When they toured together in 2008 on the Love, Pain and the Whole Crazy Carnival Ride tour, I got to see them as my 2nd concert ever at Madison Square Garden and it was one of the best concerts I've been to!
  • Speaking of Queen Underwood (I can't be the only one right?), her performance of "Something in the water" was stunning! Among so many other reasons, American Idol will always hold a special lace in my heart for giving me my biggest musical inspiration and role model.
After all was said and done, Trent Harmon came out on top over La'Porsha Renae. Personally, I liked them both a lot, so I would've been happy with whoever won. Congrats to Trent!

The last Idol premiere

Hello my butterflies!

Tonight is the last Idol Premiere. Wow. I can't believe it's actually the last season. I'm definitely excited to watch tonight and this season, but I'm not ready to say goodbye to a show I've literally watched and been inspired by since I was 5!

I remember watching every season, from Kelly Clarkson to Nick Fradiani. I remember staying up to vote by phone for my favorite contestants every year. I even used to have an American Idol folder and pencil case, which I used in elementary school! This show has given me some of my favorite artists, like Kelly Clarkson, Kellie Pickler, Chris Daughtry and Colton Dixon to name a few. It's also given me my biggest musical inspiration and role model, Carrie Underwood.

All that being said, this last season is going to be great! I can't wait to watch a new wave of talent and see who  gets to be the last American Idol. And who knows, maybe the show will continue somewhere else!

Happy Halloween!

Hello my butterflies!

Happy Halloween! Hope you have a freak-static day!

This year, I'm dressed as my favorite character in the Marvel universe, Agent Peggy Carter! She's brave, strong, beautiful and inspiring and I can't wait to see more of her story next year on Agent Carter! You can see my costume on Instagram here and follow me if you haven't already!

Falling Skies finale!

Hello my butterflies!

Last night was the finale of Falling Skies! Those of you who have read  my blog posts about it or follow me on Twitter know that I'm just a wee bit obsessed with the show... ok maybe more than a wee bit! It's been a super crazy season and I couldn't believe that the finale had come so quickly. It really wasn't that quick, but it feels that way. I just have to say that the ending was left us on such a cliff hanger that I'm seriously doubting my ability to wait patiently until the new season! I WANT TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT!!! -breathes- Whew, sorry there. Told you I'm obsessed! But seriously, this season was really great and I can't wait to see season 3!

Raw's 1000th episode!

Hello my butterflies

Last night made WWE and television history. Last night was the 1000th episode of Monday Night Raw! From January 11, 1993 to July 23, 2012, they've had 1000 episodes. That's 19 years! I've been watching for 15 of those years and I can't wait to see the next 1000 episodes! It was a really good show! They also announced that from now on, Raw will be 3 hours! That's another hour of crazy story lines and great fights!
