Remember Frenchie Davis from American Idol?


She was one of the best singers who could never make it to the final 12 because of a disqualification. Randy Jackson once said she had the best audition he has ever heard in all the seasons. Take a listen ... she can sing ...

'Let the Right One In' trailer ...


Today is Friday and I want to share one of the best movies I have seen in the last few months. I have a soft spot for different kind of love stories (Chasing Amy), and this one is beautiful. Unpredictable and great. A foreign film (that should have been nominated for an Oscare) that delights you in every way. Take a look at the trailer. Well worth the price of admission. Have you seen it yet? I will do my first video blog about this movie very soon. Stay tuned!!
