The Three Movies
Because perspective is consistently abstract and relies enormously on the individual's social foundation, prior encounters, and social class, American truth is seen by various gatherings of people in particular ways. These methods of insight may even be incongruent, so to react to the contention in qualities and the subsequent biases and segregation, attempt an investigation of these fundamental factors and clarify the most hazardous focuses.

Remember When Nine Inch Nails Mastermind Trent Reznor Wanted to Create a TV Series?
Nine Inch Nails mastermind Trent Reznor first teased us with the idea of making a TV mini-series about his album, Year Zero, as far back as 2008. The album concept of exploring the world after a nuclear war between the United States and Iran gained popularity and attracted the likes of frequend NIN collaborator David Fincher and even head honchos over at HBO and BBC. There was even confirmation by Reznor himself that a Year Zero series was in the development stages at HBO and BBC, but even that update was 10 years ago.

American Idol Upset Me
Hear me out; I'm a massive fan of American Idol even though I am Canadian. I have been a loyal viewer since Kelly Clarkson's big win in 2002. That is nineteen years of Idol love. Today is my very first rant to the world ever in my life. Don't get me wrong, I rant, just never on a world platform. So, here goes.

The X-Actor, not the X-Factor!
Music is hands down an inspiration to several people across the world. To me, it's an outlet. What is music to you? Of course there is no right or wrong answer to this question as personal opinions are the only way to process. Life would be negatively impacted if there were no music. I mean…... seriously! Every house cleaning would definitely be torture wouldn't it? What if music was your first class ticket to another life, but then your plane takes you to a place where you were not even wanted. A place that shouldn't even be on the map. Look at it this way, mistakes make us stronger…..as it depends on the person and their actions in life. The beautiful city of London, sleeping peacefully inside of the United Kingdom. The home of the very popular meal "Fish and Chips". Well, it looks like a tiny fish received a big chip on her shoulder as she walked into shark's territory! Meet Zoe Alexander, a former X-Factor contestant who auditioned on the show back in 2012 to chase her dreams of becoming a singer. Zoe, who was 23 years of age at the time of the audition was in for a rude awakening as her journey was a bit rocky. Now 31 years old, still an artist and living the best life she can, has proved that the X-Factor is not the only way to go. Breaking down every incident during her audition little by little on her youtube channel "Zoe Alexander" with just over 81,000 subscribers. The Caerphilly artist painted us a picture that should not have been in an art gallery. Shocking, disgusting, wicked statements were provided to her subscribers that made us actually see the very popular UK hit show, rather than just looking. As you know, the X-Factor is a reality tv show looking for the next big singer to promote. It appears that everything looks perfect and believable on television, but what about behind-the-scenes? Is this very popular show showing us what we need to know? If you view the infamous 2012 audition on YouTube, you would see that several things in the audition video differ from what actually happened from Zoe's true perspective as she explained on social media. The Pink tribute artist had wanted her own identity, but she was told to sing a song from Pink which is strange. After all, she does look like Pink! Details in the exposure video even stated that producers wanted Zoe to cry and beg for mercy if she didn't have her way with the judges. Strange, isn't that very strange? It was all of a matter of time until a lifetime of trauma entered its way into the humiliated contestant's chambers. When it was time for "sentencing", the judges thought that the "mimic" artist needed to find her own identity and explore herself. Basically, they saw Pink's twin sister as Zoe begged to differ. The microphone that belonged to Alexander had been cut off avoiding exposure of the show's true colors as she wanted the truth to be revealed, which was the set-up. The only great event that happened on that disastrous day was that her father had her daughter's back. Even actors get out of character, so what are these judge's true intentions? Is money the jury, judge, and executioner that is operating in a sellout crowd? Is Zoe Alexander the only victim in this heinous attack, and if not who are the others? The X-Factor's chance of making a comeback is likely possible, but nothing guaranteed. Should a show who embarrasses and bullies contestants for entertainment actually deserve to be on national television? Well, I definitely know Zoe Alexander's answer. **More details are shown in the video attached from Zoe Alexander's Youtube Channel.

My guilty binge pleasure
So the year 2020 started out well. Everyone around me seemed excited about all the new possibilities until March hit. Most of us thought that the Corona Virus (as it was called at the time), was just another flu, we didn’t really equate it with anything serious. After all, we had been through SARS years earlier and that was contained quickly. I didn’t even realize the impact of SARS until more information came out about this new virus. Anyway, that is not the point, the point is that I was laid off work and was being paid for it, and with most things shut down, there wasn’t really anything to apply for, not that I wanted to be out in public in any case.

10 More Songs That Glee Would Have Covered If It Was Still on TV
Disclaimer: This is not me endorsing or ignoring the very problematic situations that have come out of Glee or its cast (i.e. ableism, racism, etc). These articles are for fun and nostalgia and are based solely on what the show was and my love for the characters, not the actors who play them.

Worse than the Wooden Spoon: Reviewing all the ‘Nul Point’ entries at Eurovision
Eurovision can be a cruel old show at times. Each year, hopefuls from countries across Europe, and even Oceania, take part all bidding for Eurovision glory. But what happens if these countries don’t want to even give them a slither of glory, a measly point for their troubles?

My Review of "MTV VMAs 2020"
MTV VMAs 2020 tried to emulate their previous year's successes but it's a little tough when everyone is in quarantine. Or so they seem to be in quarantine. We all know in the back of our heads that there are a large number of these celebrities that aren't practicing proper social distancing and whatnot but they have to appear in public that they are.
