OMG!! IS BIEBER FEVER OVER?

OK, let’s get right to the point, my loyal and faithful readers ... in the name of fair and unbiased reporting Billi Pod has to advise you that it appears, sadly, as if Bieber Fever is over.


What in God’s Name am I talking about you are no doubt breathlessly asking? Well ... here is it ... in the past 24 hours this is what happened to The Bieb:


1. Some virtually unknown person named Esperanza Spalding beat him out of the “Best New Artist” award in last night’s Grammys. Spalding is a 26yo Jazz bassist and singer; and,


2. His movie JUSTIN BIEBER: NEVER SAY NEVER came in second to the universally panned Adam Sandler movie JUST GO WITH IT, grossing a mere 30.3 million to Sandler’s 31.0 million. Yes, that is right, he lost to Adam F**king Sandler; and,


3. Billi Pod opted not to see the Bieber movie today, choosing instead to spend the afternoon doing mundane errands and stuff.


So, folks, you get my drift? In this cutthroat entertainment environment I am relatively certain that Justin Bieber is history and his 15 minutes of fame is now over. He will soon fade back into the woodwork and became a cliché in game show trivia 20 years in the future. Sad, but true.


There is even internet buzz that support groups are already being formed to assist those who feel betrayed by The Bieber’s lack of staying power.


Oh well, I deeply regret being the bearer of bad tidings, but it is my obligation to you, my readers, in the name of fair and unbiased reporting. So ... sob ... now on to other things and stuff like ...

OMFG!! I can’t believe it==>55º at 2:30pm on this Monday in The Big Apple, The Greatest City In The World. Downside==>the wind is howling. As I was coming back from the grocery store the wind blew my 5 year old Yankee baseball cap off my head and into the street. Luckily, it wasn’t run over and I was able to retrieve it.


I believe it is supposed to be warmer for the next several days -- Hooray!!


Report card on last night’s THE MAN WHO ATE MICHAEL ROCKEFELLER==>B+. Interesting premise and outstanding performances by members of the Asmat tribe. Worth seeing for sure.


Billi Pod’s entertainment event to tonight is --


8:00==>BROADWAY BY THE YEAR 1921 @ Town Hall - “The show will feature the best music from the entire year packed into one night of beauty, sex appeal, comedy, song and dance." (Off Broadway - discounted TDF ticket). These concerts are usually well performed and a lot of fun.


Still have lots of things and stuff to do, so will close with the usual and now much anticipated ...


Musings from THE MIND OF BILLI POD (a memoir in progress):


“A carload of platitudes will not make a platypus happy.”


GO GATORS AND GO YANKEES!!
