Madonna - Bad Girl

Thursday. Morning. The princess wakes up dazed and confused.

In my mind, it keeps ringing the same lyrics by Maddy - Bad Girl.

"Something's missing and i dun know why?"



The princess loves the Madonna of the Past where her songs though commercial were still personal and thought-provoking.



It seems these days, the princess life is a sad reflection of Madonna's new songs....

"Something's missing but i dun know why..."

Perhaps... the princess (and Madonna) had gone too goody-two-shoes these days and needs to get back that bad-ass attitude in order to put our lives rightfully where it belongs.

And like what Madonna sings in the Chorus (and yes, the princess singing along too):
"Bad girl, drunk by 6, kissing someone else's lips".. The princess would like some of that please.

New adventures of an Old Princess

Julia, Julia, Julia.

Julia Louis-Dreyfus of the Seinfield fame (playing Elaine). The character everyone hates to love. She is everyone's (including the princess) anti-princess (Crude, bitchy yet so lovably real at the same time)

The princess had never realised she misses Julia so much until i stumbled upon her new (not so new) hit TV series: New Adventures of Old Christine. In just 3 episodes, the princess is truly back in television sitcom heaven.



Now, playing a divorced mother of one (yes, keeping up with times), She is still basically Elaine; just as funny, witty and scarastic, in her own goofy kinda way. The princess had not heard herself laughed so loudly since a long time.

And that grin of Julia's.... As if it was just yesterday. As if the old Elaine had never left.

Really a pleasant surprise and such an inspiration.

The princess finds herself wondering: "In an everchanging world of short attention span, new surprises and flashing faces, how do we constantly remind ourselves that, perhaps, the new excitement that we so looking for, can come from the people whom had always been by our side?"

Closer than you think

Call the princess conservative and conventional, but i must admit it seems alittle weird seeing a woman leading a team of homicide detectives in solving crimes in Closer, US Crimes Series.

Where is the explosion? hunky men? sizzling chemistry between the leading men and the foxy lady he saved?

What Kyra Sedgwick, leading lady in this crime series, brings to the series is a touch of sensitivity, vunerability and some closer to home issues (which is made believable because of her). Not to mention some brillant twists to the story plot.


A case of Judge Judy-meets-CSI??

A leading lady in a Crime department who is full of steel determination, resolve and yet with a touch of feminine instincts; using her mind and not resorting to her feminine wiles to get what she wants.

Is it really alittle too far-fetched? Or maybe it might just be closer to home than what the princess think.

Perhaps, its time the princess realises what being a real-life strong woman is about.

Someone's gonna hurt - Cougar Again :)

As the princess sips coffee with Mdm Nicole at the latest shopping destination in town, i told Nicole with great admiration and respect:"I finally understand the fears that you are going thru dating younger men"

After chasing the full season 1 of Cougar, especially the last episode, the princess finally realises, reality show or not, dating younger men is a whole lot of responsibility & fear.

Like the Cougar says: "someone's gonna hurt."

How do you date a younger man, in the midst of so many conventional objections? and tell yourself that you are not taking them away from the prime of their life? (AKA Travis).

Like what Travis' mum said to Cougar, Stacey - You have made your life but Travis is just beginning to make his.

And when you let them go, can you truly convinced yourself that you have not misled them (AKA Colt - Stacey (cougar) telling him that she is falling in love with him in one episode only to tell him that she has fallen for another man at the heartwrenching finale).


But, most importantly, like what all Cougars fear, at such late age of their life, how much assurance is there that a younger man can go the distance when it comes to love and stability.

No matter, the princess was totally glad that Stacey had chosen Jimmy - the best looking guy with great bod and charisma and totally a family-oriented boy.

Deep in my heart, the princess wishes Mdm Nicole and her (and maybe Lady V) finds our "Jimmy"

Love,
Princess

Old Habits Die Hard - The Cougar Princess

Fresh out from a long blogging hiatus, the princess wonders if she can ever write again. Would it be another one of those girly, lovely stuff or could it be a darker and more updated piece this time round in an attempt to connect with the darker, intense male readers out there somewhere.

Surfing the TV for inspiration, the princess found herself bypassing the highly recommended MIO US TV CRIME pack boasting of hit series such as The Mentalist and Criminal Minds (I mean, good stuff but not for now, dearie) and back into familiar territory - The Cougar.

Instantly, the princess was captivated. 20 gorgeous young hunks trying to win the affection of an older, beautiful, hot babe. This is really a case of ART imitating the princess' life. The princess cringed uncontrollably at their best efforts to impress the cougar which came across somewhat awkward and amateurish.

One of the princess' top fav easily -colt :)

The princess is loving the show already.

AND the Cougar really gives the phrase "to turn the other cheek" a new twist. At the end of each episode, the boys will be asked to kiss her. If she gives him her lips, it means "You're In!" in reality TV terms. If she turns her cheek, then "You're out!!"

Totally Classy and Cruel.

The princess cant wait to use it this weekend in the clubs where numerous young men will be enclamouring for the beautiful princess (as usual). (NB. Ms Cherie and Ms Nicole (the official Cougars), this trick is mine!)

Goes to show, while old habits die hard, there is always something new to learn in even the most tried and tested formula.


Lurve,
The princess P.
