Gill finally scored as a solo singer in 1990 with the release of his album Johnny Gill, which sold a million copies, topped the R&B chart, and made the Top Ten in the pop chart. [1]

Johnny Gill (born May 22, 1966 in Washington, D.C.) is an Grammy Award winning American R&B singer-songwriter best known for his romantic ballads and as a member of New Edition. [2]

Born in Washington, D.C., Johnny Gill was discovered by singer Stacy Lattisaw after singing in his family’s group Wings of Faith from age five. [3]

In duo with Lattisaw, he scored an R&B Top Ten hit in 1984 with “Perfect Combination.” [1]

This demo fell into the hands of the president of Atlantic Records, and his self-titled debut album was released shortly thereafter. [2]

In 1988, Gill joined New Edition, replacing Bobby Brown. [4]

Johnny’s solo career began in 1983 when his childhood friend, Stacy Lattisaw, convinced him to record a demo. [...] Johnny had known New Edition since they released “Candy Girl” in 1983, and New Edition would joke that if he could hit a dance step right, he could be in the group. [5]

Gill, the stepson of a minister, started singing at age five in a family gospel group called “Wings of Faith,” which included his brothers Bobby, Jeff, and Randy Gill (himself a solo recording artist and member of the group II D Extreme). [...] His recording career began in 1983 when his childhood friend, singer Stacy Lattisaw, convinced him to record a demo. [2]

In 1989 he sang on two R&B hits: “Where Do We Go from Here,” a #1 by Stacy Lattisaw, and “One Love,” by George Howard. [4]

In 1996, Gill was reunited with New Edition, including Brown, as they recorded Home Again, an album noted for the singles “Hit Me Off” and “Still In Love”. [2]

His solo career began in 1983 with the Top 30 R&B single “Super Love.” [3]

A second album on Atlantic Records, yielded the song “Half Crazy,” which is still a fan favorite. [2]

Wings of Faith mostly sang Gospel songs because, as Johnny once said, “My dad was a minister, so R&B wasn’t allowed. [5]

amazing race 13 episode 10

Sunday, November 30th, 2008

In the ninth leg of the race, the four remaining teams travel two thousand miles from Almaty, Kazakhstan, to Russia’s capital and the largest city in Europe, Moscow. [1]

One more full leg in the city is going to be an epic chore for the final four teams, each of whom are clamoring for a spot in the final three and a chance to win the million dollars. [2]

The action in the eighth leg of the race took place in the world’s largest landlocked country, Kazakhstan, and found the five remaining teams in animal-related challenges. [...] Read on for previews of Iron Chef America, Desperate Housewives, Californication and Robot Chicken: Star Wars Episode II. [...] But even when we don’t speak the same language it may be more important to consider how we speak to one another. [...] As we travel from New Delhi to Old Delhi, there are Indian families traveling together on motorcycles as several teams again are stuck in traffic. [1]

On Sunday’s new episode of The Amazing Race 13, the teams will remain in Moscow, Russia for their penultimate leg. [2]

But after watching this stunning, well-produced, gripping premiere, I may have to declare once again that I am a CSI fan. [1]

They have a tendency to embellish the truth, but there was one clip in that promo that leads me to believe that this loss of personal belongings was the real deal: Ken and Tina taking a bus. [2]

As we, the viewers, escape the sound of mangled Spanish and Portuguese, language is the least of the worries for the remaining teams as communication is a bigger issue for some. [1]

The seven remaining teams leave the beautiful island country of New Zealand and travel 5,600 miles to Cambodia’s fastest growing city, Siem Reap. [...] But the plane ride looked like a cakewalk next to taxicab delays. [3]

Dallas spent up a lot of energy carrying those big bags of flour, and he may very well be sore once the next leg begins. [...] Toni has shown no signs of fatigue just yet, but I have to imagine it’s coming soon. [2]

The race now enters its fourth leg leaving Bolivia and heading 6,900 miles west to the Pacific island country of New Zealand. [3]

womanizer video

Sunday, November 30th, 2008

Add Britney Spears - Womanizer Music Video Code to MySpace, HI5, Xanga, Friendster, your blog or anywhere else you can place html code. [1]

By now, every true Britney Spears fan knows that the singer has teamed up with MTV for a documentary — tentatively titled “For the Record” and airing November 30 — about her comeback and the recent hardships that led up to it. [2]

Britney Spears assumes multiple sassy personalities in the video for her new single “Womanizer,” according to photos released by Jive Records. [3]

It turns out the video for “Womanizer,” the first single from her forthcoming album Circus, was a little too hot for ABC, which premiered the clip on “20/20″ on Friday night (October 10). [2]

“Womanizer” made its radio debut on September 26 on New York’s Z100. [3]

In an interview on New York’s Z100 radio station late last month, Britney said of the song, “['Womanizer' is] basically saying, ‘We know what you’re up to.’ [2]

In the clip, Britney sports a vampy look - a short black wig, red lipstick, black leather pants and fake tattoos - and plays a waitress. [1]

In one scene from the clip, directed by Joseph Kahn (who helmed “Stronger” and “Toxic”), Spears sports her signature blond hair, a sexy bedtime robe and bra. [...] The song is the first single off her new album, Circus, set to come out on December 2, her 27th birthday. [3]

The characters all come together in the end, when they trap the womanizing boyfriend and give him a good beating. [2]

To see the embeddable code click Snatch This right below the video. [...] The singer shot a steamy music video for the song at Takami Sushi & Robata Restaurant and Elevate Lounge in L.A. Wednesday. [1]

In the office scene, Britney, wearing horn-rimmed glasses and a pencil skirt, woos her office lover with a lap dance. [...] It features Britney playing several different roles: nightie-clad girlfriend, naughty secretary, tattooed waitress and a near-topless chauffeur. [...] Obviously there are no explicit shots in the video, but MTV’s is certainly more provocative. [2]

11 / 29 / 2008 - Saturday Spoofee Deals! [1]

Something was empty in the living room with just 1 sofa, so I found this Crate and Barrel Petrie chair. [...] Probably just the dog biting on his bone. [2]

Here I am playing with $5 chips and the dealer has $10,000.. [...] Then I sometime wish the lights go out so I can just take one $1000 chip. [3]

Extremely useless, but it’s so big you can see the minute hand moving, I had to get it. [2]

As I lose money, I always start counting how much money the dealer has.. [3]

I use to just buy the bare essentials from Ikea until now. [...] I searched on ebay / Craigslist for a replacement, but they were all $200+. [2]

Spoofriday.com does a good job rating how hot the deals are too. [1]

Got my standard yogurt with strawberries/watermelon and mochiballs. [3]

Although the puppy from the previous post peed and farted everywhere in the home, from spending almost every hour together for a week, I fell in love with her. [2]

Newegg.com has the Linksys WPC300N Wireless Network Adapter Card for a good price. [...] Newegg.com has the Logitech V320 3 Buttons Tilt Wheel USB Cordless Optical Notebook Mouse for a good price. [...] Buy.com has the Samsung SCX-4300 Multifunction Printer for a good price. [1]
