Read MoreAfter a Short Hiatus…
Dear Readers, I hope 2014 is going well! After a short hiatus, I am back to writing this blog where I document commentaries on fame and journey in exploring celebrity culture. The hiatus does not mean time stopped. On the contrary, I had abundant moments filled with travels, talks, readings, choreography, writing, publications, and gifts that I would love to share!

As you can see, I am not an exception when it comes to that appeal. At the same time, as a Celebrity Cultural Critic, I find missing links that make famous representations...
Read MoreMaximize Your Dream Path
Dear Celebrity Culture Readers, Hope my latest post Bare and Bear? Body and Nudity in Daniel Ploeger’s Lecture and the Screen Actors Guild Awards touched you in new and empowered ways! Maximize power and your innate life force in building your dream path ‘now’ and in every moment to come. Celebrity culture often provides examples of the paradox of extraordinary and ordinary. But how do we address the question of authenticity that such a paradox raises? As I continue to write and speak on this question, I agree with Mary Morrissey’s latest video post above.
