It’s probably an added incentive that really makes a difference in our world today. There is so much swirling around that to do a good thing (or even the right thing) takes a little extra time. Highlighting that extra effort by putting it on tape reminds us all that it’s worth it! Kelly Clarkson performs on America's Got Talent 2017 One of the highlights on America’s Got Talent (besides the crowning of the winner) was Kelly Clarkson. It was particularly moving for many viewers who got to see Kelly once again perform in front of Simon Cowell in a full circle career moment. It was Simon who helped discover this talented singer on American Idol. Now he was judging a different show for talent and one of his biggest discoveries was standing on stage a star. Kelly Clarkson performed Love So Soft for Simon (and her fans) and it was a great moment. Foo Fighters Carpool Karaoke If you love the Foo Fighters OR Carpool Karaoke, the latest guests in James Corden’s car was a perfect match. The Foo Fighters offered up some of their hits while driving around the streets of Los Angeles. Looking to have a great time, the talk show host was part of the band for an hour (which later on one of the guys suggested it was a probationary
period.) The best part had to be when James pulled up at the Guitar Center for his guests to pop out and play a few songs using the store’s equipment. While the fans in the store appeared to be employees, the band didn’t disappoint. Rocking out on the stage, it was a mini concert in the middle of Los Angeles. Finally… The back and forth banter of Jimmy Kimmel and elected officials over healthcare, has many viewers asking if this is a new normal for Hollywood. As far as politics go, weighing in on what side you believe in is a personal choice. However, when it comes to creating a national discussion, Kimmel has really pushed this issue back into the spotlight. He isn’t alone in highlighting topics that are personally important to a celebrity. Over the years many celebrities have put national and international issues in the spotlight by using their star power. People like Bob Barker, Angelina Jolie, George Clooney and even the late Bob Hope are actively involved in working to create awareness. The difference with Jimmy Kimmel’s spotlight is his focus is on a hot button topic. He’s created more awareness about this issue in the past 48-hours than most people in Washington.
Nevertheless, regardless of ratings, the finale and Survivor as a whole, ultimately altered the future of television. “In a matter of 13 weeks, CBS significantly launched the reality craze and had other producers and networks scrambling to find shows starring real people.” Network executives across Hollywood were swamped with pitches, writers, and regular people looking to make their big break on reality television. “A little show called Survivor came along and turned primetime television on its ear. Not only was the show a success, it became a cultural phenomenon. The audience has spoken and they have demonstrated that they have a huge appetite for this type of non-scripted
...ing an optimistic light on the political process, this is because it portrays the message that a process that is made of good people must be just, and must prevail. Although this view isn't altogether correct, it sure does make the audience feel good.

1. When Columbus set out for the New World, he set out with the goal in mind that he would reach the famous Asia, in which Marco Polo inspired him to do, and make an enterprise in the Indies using spices of the area.

Whitney Houston to most was a very amazing and talented person who allowed life and its mishaps break her down. As a young girl she grew up in the church where she felt like it was a sign from God that she should be singing. Freud believes that religion is an illusion, an attempt to gain control over the external world. In his eyes saying that anything is a sign from God depends on how you vision life. There were times in her life where she would produce more music just to get thru the thing that she would be going through. She would use her music as a defense mechanism to get away from all of the abuse, problems with her marriage, neglect, and drugs. Defense mechanisms are ways to distort reality to reduce anxiety: Rationalization is giving a positive reason to a stressor and regression is withdrawing from reality and going to pastime.

The music business entered a dramatic change in the 21st century. These changes appear in the way of how people access and consume music. According to Hull, Hutchison and Strasser (2011) the music business has developed throughout three stages. While moving from the agricultural age, where the music business made its revenues through live performances, troubadours and patronage, the industrial age introduced new innovations that were assumed to be associated with long-term economic growth. Commencing the year 1950 sound recordings experienced a drastic raise in sales by an average of 20% a year (Krasilovsky and Shemel, 2007). While the music industry was dominated by six major record lables (Time Warner, Disney, Vivendi Universal, Viacom, Bertelsmann, and News Corp.) (Hull, Hutchison and Strasser, 2011), further growth in the industry has been recorded in the 1970’s, where record sales “rose from less than $2 billion at the beginning of the decade to over $4 billion in 1978”, which took a sharp turn entering the Depression around the middle of the 20th century (Krasilovsky and Shemel, 2007:5).

That was the best night of my life. Chris was and still is an amazing, beautiful girl that I am, proud to say, still going out with and have a strong relationship with. She amazed me then and she amazes me now, and her eyes are still like two pearls fresh out of a pair of clams. I'm a lucky guy for having a girlfriend that is 'made out of the stuff dreams are made of.'
When I think of the performing arts, I think of plays. The combination of the live performance and the acting of the script, that’s what makes it a Performing art, right? Yes, but what I did not know is that Dance is also a performing art. Magic, music, even movies are examples of the Performing Arts. When asking the question, I found myself learning about examples and different types of the arts rather than what the definition of what a performing art is. The variety of genres under Performing arts are constituted by the abstract qualities that make up a performing art. To put it simply, the performing arts include a kind of performance. The Performing arts are a combination of both Visual Arts and Literary arts, due to how they are used in
