RH cleaning house I see. Claudia is no loss to ATL tho I didn't mind her. She just didn't feel 'right' in the core group. As for Brandi, perhaps it's for the best. She was making the show toxic and letting the show become toxic to her. Maybe as a friend of she can return to the Brandi we knew in Season 2. There but not eating the show alive. I'm sure BH will find some drama to occupy their time. They'd do well to bring back Camille and TayShanna as HWs and Adrienne as another friend of. Is Yolanda really gone?? I kind of hope not...

Oooooo. That's tomorrow! And they look mighty fine in those teasers! My sweet Dongwoonie has a mini solo album yay! He deserves it. He is really talented and seems to love composing as much as singing. The EXO-BB face off is a clusterfuck. Accusations of rigging at various music shows. I don't know. I'm sort of over it. I personally don't think either Love Me Right or Bang Bang Bang warrant this kind of shenanigans. Both are forgettable imo. Call Me Baby had a catchier hook and EXO's back catalogue has far superior songs. Same with Big Bang. P.s.: Your avatar and siggie are awesome. Queen Steffy is BACK! I just wish it wasn't all about Liam's tired ass.

Chances are Kim will convince Bravo/Andy to let her stay because she will say that her sobriety is tied up with the show, and when she is off the show or the show is on break, that's when she falls off the wagon. Kim can emotionally manipulate using her addiction with the best of em and I would have no doubt that she would employ that as a negotiating tactic. The sad part is that I think deep down she believes it. She believes that without the show she would fall down a dark well. And that without the fame, she is nothing. When I think of that speech at the start of Reunion when she insisted she was still on the wagon and HOW DARE anybody say different and y'all better be VERY CAREFUL with your words and what you are saying LEGALLY because I have the goods on you and will let the whole world know, Lisa Rinna. I do enjoy Andy for the most part but he gave her such a free pass throughout Reunion. It's so difficult to know how to handle someone like Kim because if you push, you don't want to be accused of pushing her off the wagon -- again, that emotionally manipulative game where Kim hides behind her past addiction (so that no-one can call her out) without ever facing up to her current battles with prescriptive drugs and alcohol. And I have to wonder if Kim's biggest addiction is to the fame she once had as a kid and longs to claw back again. P.S.: I am catching up on NY and loving it so damn much! I was uncertain about Bethenny returning but omg where have you been the past few years?! She takes the show to another level. I love her. I love the balance amongst the women. Dorinda is a gem and her realness grounds the show. Ramona readjusting to a new, more realistic acceptance of her life is also a grounding factor. The Countess makes me live. Sonja's denial is actually a good SL this season. Heather and Carole are disappointing me but that in of itself is bringing some tension to the show. All in all, I love the sweep of these women's lives, how we see the parties and social life and the Manhattan feel and it is so fabulous. I also like how multi-faceted they are. There are no perfect 'good guys' or 'bad guys.' It all depends on the situation and context.

And mv: Beautiful images. Hot [!@#$%^&*] mess. At least Bang Bang Bang had some cohesion and the bopping cars and CowboyTOP dancing with AstroTOP. The song is a jam. I. CANNOT. With Taeyang's 'pink tar' hair. It looks like My Little Pony threw up on him. So ready for the music shows and the Exo-Big Bang BOWING.

I feel you. EXO may be my bias group but I need to miss them a little bit more because it feels like last cb just ended. It's... too much. Too much drama, too much overexposure. They need a small break and should really release in July and August because that is when there are few good releases and I am scratching around for new stuff to listen to. This EXO repackage + cb feels like it has been rushed. Rushed because of Tao's unexpected departure (EXO are still standing y'all!) and rushed because Big Bang are releasing two tracks a month right until the end of this year. Basically BB and EXO will be going head to head on the music shows next week and the week after, so get ready for lots of deep bowing that goes on for 10 minutes at a time. I will PAY to see GD and TOP bowing to anybody let alone EXO but let's see. Meanwhile, Shinee keep winning the music shows. Looks like fans are determined to squeeze as many wins for Shinee as they can before next Wednesday's EXO cb drops. I heard that Junho has some kind of INSANE popularity in Japan. Sales of his stuff, even in Korean, regularly hit the #1 and #2 spots during the year. Taeyang's hair looks awful and it makes his face look ugly as !@#$%^&*]. He literally looks like a moose. What happened to the hotness of Rise??? Ouch to KARA flop. I don't know who they are but I think they lost a few members last year and then replaced them with a couple of newbies and it was all kind of messy. I think Kpop may have too many boy and girl bands tbh and perhaps KARA just do not stand out enough. That sales figure is kind of wounding though.

Beast and BtoB have albums out? Ah, in Japan. But I would never have known other than from you! They really slip in under the radar. CL's Dr. Pepper song is excrement! But I'm not surprised considering that she has aligned herself with that douche Diplo. In other CL news, she got a haircut: I like that she changed up her image a little bit although I wish she had kept her hair long but gone black instead! And only one week after SHINee have their comeback, EXO release a few teaser pics of their cb, next Wednesday June 3rd! I feel like they never went away tbh. The concept seems to be (American) football but with baseball hats and soccer shorts. And here is Mnet's promo for their cb stage: I'm not sure what to make of this. This is a lot like SNSD's Oh! concept -- the boy's version. I also think these guys are too slight and dancerly to carry off all that heavy athletic padding. If they start dancing in football uniforms I swear this song will be the next Wolf 2.0. OTOH, the concept is clearly just a metaphor for "Exo: bruised and battered. But still One (well, 9 now)."

Well, Shinee have had their first comeback stage where they performed View and Love Sick. I am slightly underwhelmed by the choreo to VIew tbh but that's just because Shinee are SO talented at performance that they could do wonders with something more challenging. But Minho and Onew have been on fire with these stages, singing and dancing. Big Guns and Dabulge! Some Minho snaps:

Yeah I would love if they did Odd Eye! I am surprised by the song choice because it is quite lowkey in some ways, and I would have preferred something with a great hook and in-your-face choreo. Having said that, I am so so SO glad they went with the teaser concept in this MV. The storyline itself feels a bit "Celebrate Sasaengs -- as long as you are beautiful and white" but it is odd enough to be interesting and Thailand looks amazing. This looks like a cinematic mv. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL at the reaction to Minho's bare chest. Those gifs are classic.

Yeah! The opening to Odd Eye especially! Farewell and Alive are also pretty good!

I love the concept. LOVE the concept. They are like young high school kids on vacation in Thailand and being kidnapped by crazy white-girl sasaengs! Seriously, I love the styling and the vibe of all these trailers. SM really knows how to produce cinematic, mysterious, sexy, haunting trailers. It's their MVs which let them down. BTW, Odd just dropped a few hours ago! I really like Odd Eye, Love Sick and Woof Woof so far (don't laugh, that song is a jam): http://youtu.be/K9Pqwbyn3WA

I don't know if it is a full-length album, but they are calling it an album (and not a mini album). Keep an eye on SHINee's official site, I guess -- they are dropping teasers and teaser pics all this week ahead of the album's May 18th release date (which will probably be next Sunday evening your time as they tend to drop at midnight KST).

Well, it's not official in that neither Tao nor SM have released statements confirming whether he is in or out. But Tao is no longer in SK, he was in China until a few days ago apparently. And he no longer refers to himself as part of EXO on his SNS sites. It makes me sad because I don't think he necessarily wanted to leave, but his father forced his hand. It also makes me sad because EXO keeps losing members and that must hurt morale within the group. Sehun alone must be devastated as they were BFFs. I just listened to Excuse Me Miss and I love it. Taht is some RnB groove there. How I would have loved to see Shinee perform this song -- their choreography is usually a standout. That TY speech is hilarious and I love the love other idols have for other groups too. You can really feel the support SHINee is getting from others. BTW -- guess what drops next week? SHINee's new album ODD!! Here is the first cryptic teaser for it. It sounds very retro. This should be good -- fans have been waiting 18 months for a Korean release from SHINee. I see you like Minho lol. They all seem so tight with each other tbh.

WOW! I was away on vacation the last few weeks. And then everything happened! Tao left EXO (sob! Apparently he is in the US right now where he is going to study at get some treatment for his injuries). I feel burned out from all the people leaving EXO tbh. All I know is that I love them, this is my bias group, I love the Exodus album(What If is still my favourite song) and long may they reign because they are still a phenomenon. Bastarz are awesome and their vampire mv made me lmao. Out of the two releases from Big Bang so far, I find the Loser mv by far the better one. It was like a mini movie and TOP's part in it almost made me tear up. However, as jams go, Bae Bae is the catchier song. Some of it feels very GD tho, almost too GD, too Pretentious GD Trying to Be Ironic and Arty. IA with you Cheap that Taeyang's and TOP's parts are the standouts. Though Taeyang needs to burn that horse's hair wig he was sporting, and TOP squirting white liquid at that girl? What are you smoking TOP?? His Instagram is also um, unique, shall we say. LOL. Seungri looks so hot with the blonde hair and I honestly NEVER thought about him that way. Casper... hmmmm. OK, his body is hot but like AllMyDays I am unable to connect to him atm. I'm not sure why. The face is kind of closed off. Maybe I need to see more of him in movement and shirtless, lol... SHINEE!!!! Omg Cheap. I decided a few weeks back that this would be the year that I get into this group. I love Lucifer and Everybody. I keep hearing that their Misconceptions album is their best, so I will check it out. It looks like a comeback is planned for them this year because Tony Testa (the choreographer who did Overdose for EXO) posted on IG that he was with them working, and that usually means a fancy new routine for a fancy new song and mv! You are officially a Shawol, Cheap. I will go check out more of their stuff and we can spazz on here about them.

KKL? Katherine Kelly Lang? Just messing with you Antoyne Kelly Killoren Bensimon right? I loved Scary Island but keeping Kelly on the following season was a mistake. She should have gone after what was clearly some kind of mental break or drug-infused meltdown. I suspect she was bi-polar but refused to acknowledge she had a problem. And of course the best thing about Scary Island (apart from PregnantBethenny's VT: "Bye loon!") was Jill showing up out of nowhere afterwards. "SUR proyzzzzzzzzz everybody!" Everybody's soapy reaction shot was like: Bethenny: Alex: Ramona:

Catching up on the last two-and-a-half pages of this thread has been more entertaining than the final half of this season's RHOA. I don't think any of these women are queens but one major reason we watch them is for their flaws as well as their triumphs. And nobody encapsulates that mix of flaws and triumph more than Nene, so I guess for that reason I have to take her as I find her. Same with Kenya, Cynthia, Phae Phae and all those others. [There was a point with Nene during the Pillow Talk episodes where I felt completely turned off. I felt she instigated things and it just boiled over out of control. There comes a point with people -- maybe when men are involved -- when you can't keep poking the bear because the bear will get out of its cage and give you a left hook. She never really took responsibility for some of that (pretty much half the group was messy and turnt up tho) and while I know Nene will never admit to wrongdoing in anything, I was disappointed that she didn't for the sake of the group. Especially once husbands and friends got involved]. I guess I should take the same attitude with BH and people like Brandi, Kim on one side and Lisa V and Eileen on the other. For some reason, I find them much more polarizing, I worship one pair while the meanness and toxicity of another pair really turn me off. So I feel you guys who support loyally and tirelessly your ladies on Atlanta. I am watching S5 (Africa trip season) and while I loved Marlo at first that season, and loved the drama she brought with her to SA, I was kind of turned off by her materialistic attitude in a setting where many people (mostly black) live with soooo much less and often in highly dangerous environments. In some ways she would have been perfect to hold a peach, though... for a while. I think she would have pulled a Brandi, however, and would have gone to far and burned herself out.

I was going to do a long-ass post but you took the words right out of my mouth. DF STOPPPPPPPP ITTTTTTTTTT Speaking the TRUTH like that will only get Kim riled up about her iron-clad sobriety. When she's not too busy playing Kathy against Kyle and defending her dangerous dog against mauling children and elders, of course. By the way, did anybody catch the absolutely epic clip of Lisa V in the break, talking about her lady parts, standing up and saying "Well, this girl is talking her p***y to the Ladies' Room" and then sashaying out of there like Alexis Colby after a smackdown? I wish I had that gif, I would erect an altar to it and worship its fierceness. I don't want to laugh at Kim. This is sad and depressing because it highlights what a deluded state she is in now. It's probably easy to blame the enabler Brandi, but Kim is 50 (I know, I was shocked too -- for the wrong reasons). She handled herself in a mean way at Reunion but she came at the women and was adept (with a little hep from Andy) at dominating the conversation. She is struggling with sobriety but she is not a baby. She needs to accept responsibility for her actions. The one thing she was unable to do at Reunion was accept blame or responsibility for anything. And Andy and the others still held back from really giving it to her. One person's sobriety cannot rest entirely on another person's shoulders, as Kyle probably well knows. I only hope this is her Aha Moment and she truly is able to pull herself out of this dark hole she has gotten herself in. As far as the show is concerned, it is not helping her or doing Brandi any favors. Both need to go and reflect and be on their own. Their loneliness is what keeps them acting cray and staying on this show, lapping up the attention they think their "millions" of fans dote on them. I haven't watched RHOA the last 4-5 weeks because I got kind of bored. Is it worth catching up? I ask this because I actually want to watch Reunion now. It looks good. I actually feel for Nene because so much of her anger and jealousy must stem back to her abandonment issues with her mom. Her relationships with women in general are all sourced to this. Porsha lawd. Kenya I want to love but it's her smugness, I guess, that makes me want to see her take it as much as she can dish out. She's smart and funny but she's not the STAH she thinks she is and she isn't Nene level yet, as much as we might hate to admit that. Phaekdra, lawwwwwwwwd. Kandi isn't perfect but her reads on people are truthful and on point. Todd needs to sit his ass down trying to be the next HW. Peter already has that role and he isn't going to give that up, even for his bro! Cynthia's hair... ok, I like the concept. I love the waviness. But it is too damn much. It looks like the stiff wire wigs they used to put on mannequins at JC Penney. I am watching Africa Trip season and wow I finally get the glory that is Marlo. I really wish she was a HW on this show tbh. She makes drama happen.

I can absolutely see why Andy wanted her back and how important she is to this franchise's last hurrah. Plus this is good for her. Bethenny has control over this situation. She will not come out of this season looking bad unless she does something really, really stupid. Isn't Dorinda a relief, though? We still have the whole season to go and maybe she will try too hard and ruin her momentum here, but I think it is a relief to see a New York face looking like a face and not human death mask. Plus she spoke a lot of support and common sense with Ramona and I really appreciated that she brought out a non-cray, non-frenetic side of Pinot Bug Eyes lol. Heather is a little too "I am always right." Plus she gets aggravated easily and, unless you are Dorothy Sbornak of The Golden Girls, aggravated is always going to make you look bitter on TV. We will see. So far we have barely seen her tbh. I am so glad you agree about Eileen Davidson. She is common sense, no fuss and calls a spade a spade. I am so impressed because that is how she struck me in interviews -- reserved but fundamentally unpretentious. I was so worried she'd either get drowned out by shrieking that only dolphins can hear, or come across as shady or fake. Luckily she kept her integrity. Also -- Vince peeping out of the garage window at Brandi fighting Kyle -- arguably THE MOMENT of the season, non?

ETA: OMG -- we posted around the same time! And about similar topics! First of all, who is that in your dp? Thank you for answering my question. I think I recognize Dujoon in your sig! I am all over this EXO comeback. EXO have been slaying the live shows and I really enjoy when they rotate the second song. Exodus is extremely catchy and hopefully this will be the next release, but I think El Dorado will be that one. In the meantime, EXO have won six out of six award shows, including another Inkiyago today! Minseok channelled Boy George Chanyeol spent time with da laydeez and fondled fruit -- and IA, CY's voice just gets better and better. I love the richness he adds to the vocal line. In addition to CY, D.O. and Chen, I think Baekhyun's vocals (on the album especially) have been a standout. Plus he's so good at performing. Obviously I am all over Kai's 'Greaser Mechanic/Gigolo' look (and his fake earring -- see below), but honestly he is so pretty and his dancing has been on point this cb. You know I am a serious stan when his hair looks like that. The sad thing is not seeing Lay or Tao in promotions. Tao apparently seriously damaged his foot at these Idol Oly,mpics (don't ask) and cannot walk without crutches. Lay meanwhile is filming a movie in China with Zhang Ziyi, one of the country's biggest stars. At least I hope that's it. SM have financed a Chinese composing studio for Lay so I don't think he will be leaving anytime soon as he is ambitious and doing a ton of solo projects. However, after KrisHan, I still worry. Glad he came back for Inkiyago today! He was one of the standouts in the music video of CMB too. This is from another performance but... Chen, boo, what are you even doing? In other news.... Taeyang got injured in LA -- where I assume a BB music video is being filmed. Apparently it is not threatening to the comeback so hopefully he will be on his feet soon. Meanwhile, GD is rocking some 70s sideburns. I don't know how I feel about those. BtoB deserve so much good fortune. They work so hard but don't get nearly the buzz or marketing might of a group like EXO, Big Bang, BTS or GOT7. I feel like next comeback they need to take a big risk with the concept and go somewhere off-center with the look and sound. Speaking of Got7 -- Jackson Wang cleans up pretty good when he takes off his snapback and puts on a tuxedo (below, right)! Damn Kikwang. Work that body, honey! He really is the visual I guess! Is that Dongwonie on the drums? OMG *swooooooooooooooooooooooon* His jawline is to die for.

OMG this epitomized the spoiled entitlement and fakeassery of Kim. I am citing from memory but didn't it kind of go like this? Kim: *ramble ramble* *backtrack* *threaten* *ramble* .... and I already apologized to Eileen--- Eileen: No you didn't. Kim: Yes I did. Eileen: No, Vince and I never received an apology for the way you behaved at our house. Kim: *long exasperated sigh* ..... Fine. I'm sorry, Eileen. I don't have anything to say about Part 2 of Reunion because Kim and Brandi were just ridiculous in their lame ass justifications for their behaviour. Kim, as I have already said countless times, is emotionally manipulative, selfish, and a bully. Brandi is pretty much the same only with less braincells. Both say the most awful things to people, then squeal about being "bullied" and "ganged up" by the other women when they get called out. They are delusional because they will never accept that they are anything less than poor, put-upon, innocent victims. I feel sorry for their family and respective caregivers. Eileen and Lisa Rinna are on the Lisa V level of fabulous, especially my lovely Eileen who I have fangirled over since I was a child. It is a great when an actor proves you right in your decision to stan them, lol. I hope these three women return next season but if they don't, I will totally understand and respect why not. With Kim and Brandi clinging on to the relevancy wagon for all it is worth, the show is nasty and toxic. How I wish they could be replaced by Camille, Adrienne and Taylor. RHoNY: I wasn't that excited about Bethenny returning as her strident chicken squawk voice is like nails-on-a-chalkboard for me. And while I see through the whole woe-is-me-I-is-homeless-at-the-Marriott PR stunt she is pulling, it honestly feels like she never left the show. She brings dynamism and drama. Loved her scene with LuAnn (who I am also glad got to hold an apple this season). The person I liked the most this episode was Ramona. Obviously Ramona is on her own PR campaign but I think she is genuinely devastated about her marriage being over. I am sure she and Mario had an arrangement when they married -- she said as much in one of her VTs when she indicated that she could no long look the other way -- but I also think Ramona was deeply swept off her feet by Mario and loved being his wife. Mario must have been even more charming and outgoing when they met and as somebody with borderline social awkwardness issues, she must have been attracted to the guy who is always the life of the party. She seems genuinely quiet and resigned. Her decision not to confide in delulu fantasist Sonja is COMPLETELY understandable. I also liked her chemistry with Dorinda. Their friendship seems legit. Dorinda is so far a good find for NY. I wasn't sure at first as this is not somebody swimming in boundless wealth, dripping in jewels and with startling facelifts and boob jobs. Dorinda looks her age and she feels very, very New York, living in a comfortable, rather than overly opulent, Upper East Side high-rise. In fact her apartment looked like Jill Zarin's. She strikes me as an Italian-American New Yorker who has faced tragedy in her life and is still vulnerable about it but is not ashamed to show it. Too often in NYC, women put on a hard face so as not to appear weak. I liked how normal she seemed. And her bf too. Madame Paulette is an institution in Manhattan. I used to love Carole and Heather but they got a little smug at the end of last season and I wonder if they will get the bitch edit this year. Carole is lazy and I don't know if I need a plot about her struggling to make a deadline tbh. Heather is still fab IMO but I have a feeling Bethenny is already silently gunning to make her irrelevant. Speaking of irrelevant -- is New Boobs' SL gonna be her new boobs?

I love the album tbh. I always love EXO's music because that is how I came into this group -- via the music I couldn't get out of my head. CMB is an ear worm and has totally grown on me. I too love their comeback stages thus far, especially today's Inkiyago recording where they all look non-greasy and fluffy and clean! CMB is a fun jam. Out of the album, I too like Exodus, Transformer, Hurt and El Dorado. But my heart is feeling the ballads too. My Answer is def old skool but Baekhyun, D.O. and Suho slay. IMO, Suho's voice is at its most beautiful in the song Beautiful. I really feel he takes it another level there. My fave song on the album is What If. It's a grower but now I can't stop listening to it. I think it is on a par with What is Love tbh. Oh Big Bang. YG are handling this supposed comeback so messily. Yes there is a new girl in RV and I think she is only 15 or 16! In the mv I can't really tell her apart from the others, but I have seen some backstage fancams and she looks cute, fun and feisty. When it comes to RV, my ears are always slayed by Wendy's vocals, and my eye is always on Joy and Seulgri. Joy and Seulgri have distinctive looks and faces that exude charisma IMO. They are the stars of RV for me. And I am so pleased that this comeback has been embraced by fans! I love the slightly spooky girl-pop concept, even though some of those girls look less good with blonde hair than others. Well would you look at that. I am almost stanning a k pop girl group!

Finally watched BH. Kim is just awful. Whereas I sometimes feel sorry for Brandi (sorry that she is so self-destructive and unable to admit that her downfall is entirely her own doing), I feel nothing for Kim, not even pity. She is a nasty, mean woman. The way she launched into that pre-prepared speech about how she loved her sister/was in a good place without her in her life was emotional manipulation at its best. I know Mr. Vixen won't like me saying this and maybe he/she can convince me otherwise, but -- there is something evil in the way Kim thrives on seeing her sister hurt by her words. And Kyle is hardly my favorite HW but it's gotten to the point where Kim is kicking a lame puppy to see how hard it can still mewl. It is ugly to watch. And it makes Kim an ugly person inside. I commend Kyle on keeping it together and not uttering a word (leaving Kim to keep repeating "I'm in a good place! I'm in a good place! nestled amongst my prescription pills!" -- I believe her. She is in a GREAT place right now -- for her) until the end when she said "When you are ready for an honest conversation, I will be happy to talk." That was the best comeback of Kyle's on the show because otherwise she just does not have the wit or the smarts to lay on the zingers. I feel so bad for Yolanda and everything she said in Reunion I honestly believe came from a good place. I hope she gets well soon and retutrns to BH. She adds much-needed balance to the show. TBH Brandi is really lucky to have a friend like Yolanda because she needs a mother figure. And she desperately wants one. As illustrated by her intense desire to be with Lisa V. I think Brandi is bipolar. I don't think the 'partying' is helping that. And her chip on her shoulder about being wronged/the outsider is pathologically large. The way she longs for Lisa's approval or even just attention is intense. She wants Lisa on almost a sexual level. I don't think she is necessarily in lust with Lisa V but it is a more a manifestation of possessing her totally, completely, body and soul, her best friend, her mother figure, her mentor, her enabler. And while Lisa did play with Brandi's need to have her friendship, Brandi's unwillingness to realize what it was about the slap that killed the relationship is another example of B's pathological inability to meaningfully take responsibility. I hate that Kyle loves to play victim all the time -- but Brandi is the same way. You know what it was about the slap and the wine toss that upset Lisa and Eileen? It was the fact that underpinning the worship or need for approval is hate and jealousy. They felt that with both actions, it was deeply personal on Brandi's part. That it was hatred mixed with something slightly loving and obsessional and that's why it unsettled them. I am probably reading too much into this. I am going to say something nice and say that Brandi's hair looks good, LOL. Kim vs Lisa Rinna. Honestly, I don't really care. Kim is just going after who she thinks is the weak link. She doesn't engage with Eileen anymore because she knows Eileen can best her without breaking a sweat. I am really ready for Eileen to read Brandi but especially Kim tbh. Kim is riding roughshod over everybody, and Andy and the other HWs are just letting her.

Chin tuck Brow lift Nose tweaked Major botox on the forehead Fillers in her cheeks She also lost a lot of weight. I am going to go out on a limb and say that Nene's mom hair looks somewhat decent on her.

This is what I need to do: download the latest Big Bang concert and watch it and truly appreciate. Have you ever watched Superman Returns? Tablo is in it, he has a little girl called Haru who is BFFs with Taeyang and has the biggest crush on GD. It is supercute because GD is very shy about it too. Anyway... it happened. EXO's Call Me Baby mv is OUT I... don't know what to say about the styling. The song is a bop and I love the cars. But lawd Xiumin has a top knot and Kai thinks he is living the thug life with that grease pit for a hairdo. Obviously I would take him however whenever but... woah. His dancing is still on point though. But it's clear that in mv terms, Beast's 12.30 and Red Velvet's Ice Cream Cake are more interesting. I'm not going to touch on EXO's Overdose and Growl As far as songs are concerned, there are plenty I like but this one (What If) I am listening to a lot. Here is the M version:

RESPONDING TO YOUR DISTRESS CALL CHEAP I was away on a work trip this past week or so and couldn't access this thread on my phone. Too many pics and YT vids! My phone is such crap. But I have been keeping up with the imminent comeback! I am so excited! All the teasers have been released now. They were so cinematic, I was really impressed. There wasn't really a dud one in the pack, although obviously I had my favourites. Kai (goes without saying) filmed in my 'hometown'. But stylistically, Suho and Baekhyun's were probably my faves, with Sehun and Kai close seconds. I found them quite powerful. And then there is the music.... Well, I have only heard a couple of leaked songs so far. Call Me Baby was officially released yesterday, and it is a jam. I don't know whether I prefer K version or M tbh: http://youtu.be/Gjye0aoRQFc http://youtu.be/-xcpiFPG6xM It doesn't have the impact of Overdose which was so original and like an electric shock for me, as a newcomer to k pop. But Overdose was intense and emotionally draining, especially after KrisHan left. But it is a bop and light and happy. I think this is what EXO and the fandom needs after last year, lol. And Kai's opening in K --- buuum buuum buuum buuum buuum -- making me feel some kind of way! This coupled with Red Velvet ( I *love* Ice Cream Cake and Automatic. Plus they got a new member!) and SNSD, Shinee and SuJu getting releases this year PLUS SM Rookies means that SM are letting YG know that they do not play. YG vs SM this year is going to be INSANE and I hope that means lots of great music. Especially from Big Bang. BTW SM Rookies did a quick teaser dance and I really love it. I wasn't looking for a new group to stan but... if this song is part of their album, I am intrigued: Finally -- I still think Crazy by 4Minute is one of my fave songs of the year so far. I am so glad they started strong! And I am really impressed by HyunA.

Rinna and Yolanda look amazing. Vanderpump looks imperial. Kyle looks good but I've seen her wear that red before. Kim (apart from the hair) looks surprisingly good in fuschia. Brandi's hair is great but her dress looks like full-body Spanx. Eileen's hair and hoop earrings are so wrong and she looks like she is going to Prom. Her Bond Girl Amsterdam hair was flawless. But whatever. She's a Queen in my eyes.
