KIM K, KEEPING IT POSITIVE & HER TOTS ON HOLLYWOOD WALK OF FAME.
Kim Kardashian talking with V Magazine during a recent interview, she was asked to give her thoughts about why most people believe she is just famous for being famous...this is what she had to say;
I’m not naïve to the fact that I’m not a singer or an actress or anything like that. I’ve never claimed to be anything that I’m not. I think reality is still a new form of entertainment that was kind of an unexpected thing.
It reminds me of rap music. When rap music first came out, people were like, We don’t understand this, what is this, it’s just a fad. But rap music is definitely here to stay, and I think reality shows have proven they are as well. But when something is newer, people don’t really understand it.
I think there was a quote where somebody said that reality stars will never get a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. So, of course I’m so competitive that I think that it would be a huge achievement and a goal that anyone would want. I would love to break that mold.
What y'all think, do you believe Kim K deserve a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame??? ..Lets know what you think, so feel free to leave a comment.
UNFORGETTABLE TUNES!

At the age of 24 professional footballer Frabrice Muamba has retired from playing football professionally. The Bolton Wanderers midfielder who collapsed during a match which took place in March this year. After 4 weeks in the hospital, he was released on a possitive note that his recovery was good. Five months after the incident he is advised to quit football professionally. Read below the statement he released some hours ago:
~~Since suffering my heart attack and being discharged from hospital, I have remained utterly positive in the belief I could one day resume my playing career and play for Bolton Wanderers once again. As part of my on-going recovery, last week I travelled to Belgium to seek further medical advice from a leading cardiologist. But the news I received was obviously not what I had hoped it would be and it means I am now announcing my retirement from professional football. While the news is devastating, I have much to be thankful for. I thank God that I am alive and I pay tribute once again to the members of the medical team who never gave up on me. I would also like to thank everyone who has supported me throughout my career and the Bolton fans who have been incredible. I am blessed to have the support of my family and friends at this time."
I love the game and count myself very lucky to have been able to play at the highest level.~~

************************************ This blog was inspired by LIFE and the zeal to always share positive vibes to those that appreciate what they have not what others have, and they want....if you fall in this category i have just four words for you "ITCOULD BE WORSE" so be thankful for what you've got and stop being an ass (sorry for using that word,but it has to be said). Constructive criticism, when you see something good or someone doing something good and positive appreciate it don't envy it, encourage don't discourage, say something uplifting to it don't badmouth or backyardmouth it and the most important use that good thing to encourage yourself to start your own positive vibes...let the love flow...share love and not hate. There is something for everyone to relate to here, just keep scrolling and keep clicking. I promise to keep you updated always.
