BIG (Alter) Egos

When you're a famous pop star, you're flattered by bootlickers and fans to a point where your ego begins to swell larger than your head ( or that recent boob job) .

You begin to think that you're too big even for your own famous name.

Maybe the Spice Girls started it with their Baby, Sporty, Ginger, Scary and Posh tags way back then.
And Madonna was the Material Girl and Bette Midler was The Divine Miss M even before it was hip to do so.

But these DivAAAAAs use their reinvented egos to swell their fame and coffers.



Jennifer Lopez started it. she became known simply as J-Lo.

(with an ego that swollen she still tried hard to persuade the public that Her Love don't cost a Thing and that she's still just Jenny from The Block. Whateva ya Miss Bronx-0-fabulous.)



Suddenly, Janet Jackson made sure everyone knew that she had always been Damita Jo.

(or we could otherwise just call her Lil Miss Wacko Jacko.. which isn't glam isn't it? but neither is an exposed Nipple...)



Mariah made a massive comback by reinvinting herself as Mimi.

(And yes, she claims that she really did grew up with that nic. And my childhood nic was really Fifi.)



Lo and behold...

Beyonce Knowles now proudly announces that she IS Sasha Fierce.

Note, it is not 'I'm also called' but 'I AM' .

Messed up. ^^


Q ... LMAO.. haha

The Rose

'Some say love it is a river
that drowns the tender reed
Some say love is it a razor
that leaves your soul to bleed
Some say love it is a hunger
an endless aching need
I say love it is a flower
and you is all the seed

Is the heart afraid of breaking
that never learns to dance
Is the dream afraid of waking
that never takes the chance
Is the one won't be taken
who cannot seem to give

And the soul afraid of dying
that never learns to live

When the night has been to lonely
and the road has been too long
and you think that love is only for
the lucky and the strong

Just remember in the winter
far beneath the bitter snow
Like the seed that with the suns love
in the spring becomes The Rose. ' ~ By Bette Midler

Touching.

They don't write songs like that anymore.

Everything these days is all about , money, fame , sex and grind.

Hit the Jackpot!

Jackpot! The Best Bette (know as The Best Bette in Europe) is a compilation album of recordings by American singer Bette Midler.

The album release was originally set to coincide with Midler's current Las Vegas show, Bette Midler: The Showgirl Must Go On which debuted on February 20, 2008 at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace

, but was postponed to an international September release.


After some thirty-five years in showbusiness and having recorded some twenty albums this is the second single-disc compilation of Midler's best-known recordings, following 1993/1996's Experience the Divine.

Jackpot! The Best Bette includes three titles from Midler's more recent albums for Columbia, "This Ole House", "Tenderly" and "Cool Yule", and also sees the debut of one previously unreleased track, "Something Your Heart's Been Telling Me", co-written by Midler, Robert Kraft and Barry Reynolds and originally cut as a demo by the singer herself in 1984 but first released by Roberta Flack who recorded the song for her 1991 album Set the Night to Music.~ Wiki-ed.

A drama queen like non other.

A must get.
