Why Did Lady Gaga Go To VMAs As Jo Calderone? Secret Agenda?!

Lady Gaga opened the 2011 MTV Video Music Awards in full character as her male alter ego, Jo Calderone. She stayed in character the whole night, and even used the men's bathroom! =)














Personally, I thought that her opening performance was a bit lengthy, lacked substance or meaning, and I didn't get it. Now I am finding that I am not alone. Everybody is wondering why she chose to do this.

I am a fan of Lady Gaga, and I think she has a lot of musical talent and is a passionate singer and songwriter. I'm NOT into her "dark side" or border-line Satanic music videos, but as an artist, I respect her craft. Actually, I enjoy her acoustic performances like this one the most.

BUT WHY DID SHE CHOOSE TO DO THIS?!


















After thinking about it, I have come up with my opinion of why Lady Gaga chose to *act* as Jo Calderone for the whole world to see.

Is Lady Gaga trying to break into the acting world?

Is she trying to get into Broadway?

Hmmm... =)

If she is, then this stunt is a brilliant move. Although Jo Calderone is not exactly the most charming dude, Lady Gaga did portray an ability to act. We all know that she can sing, and if you mix that with acting, what do you get? You guessed it... A BROADWAY MUSICAL!

You know she is from New York, right? So she grew up watching ads for Broadway musicals and probably attended several herself. Getting into Broadway is perhaps a Star's biggest dream. It is one of the ultimate achievements in the music and acting industry.

Is Lady Gaga trying to become and actor? What do you think? =)

SEEDS OF GLORY: PLANTING THE DELICIOUSNESS OF LIFE

To start off today's blog entry, here are some artsy photos for you =)





This is the "Loquat" tree that is in front of my house. It's been blessing us with delicious fruits for several years and we all look forward to when their season arrives. It actually just passed a few months ago.

Here is some more info on Loquats: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Loquat


Last year I gave some to Angela Stokes-Monarch and she took them to Vilcabama Equador. I gave her over 100! She planted several in her home and gave many of them away to others. This tree has spread across the globe! =)

Here are some more that I planted. They were sprouting below the tree from this year's harvest.






A couple of weeks ago I cut into a lemon and out popped a sprouted lemon seed! That never happens... seeds are designed to come OUT before they sprout! But this little guy was ready to live and thrive and contribute to life! So I planted it right away under the soil.

Now look at it! It's coming up! =)


Then, yesterday... I was eating a papaya and inside of it were dozens and dozens of sprouted papaya seeds! Wow... So I planted all of those too. We'll see if they come up! =)


And last but not least... here is one more art piece for the road. =)


Thanks for being!

See you tomorrow...

THE ART OF JUICING: SUMMERTIME JUICE RECIPE

It's been quite hot down here in Los Angeles, and drinking fresh squeezed juices is a great way to cool down.

FLOWER POWER: FEELING THE ESSENCE OF LIFE

Yesterday, I went to the local hardware store to get supplies to build my mom a shoe rack for her closet. She has over 100 pairs of shoes! Wow... I thought that *I* had a lot! =)

Regardless of where I am or what I am doing, I always like to stop and smell the roses and enjoy any beauty that is around me. With all of today's distractions, it's so easy to loose touch with our spiritual side. But anywhere we are in the world, the Essence of Life is always there with us. Any time we choose to move inward, regardless of outer circumstances, the Spirit of Life is always there to meet and greet us. ♥

As I was walking by the indoor garden section of the store, I was greeted by these AMAZING flowers and plants that were *radiating* and emanating such a beautiful expression of Life.




I like to see all that exists here on beautiful Earth as a work of art that *someone* is creating. Whoever this *creator* is... WOW. What an amazing artist they are! Just look at how beautifully the colors and textures blend with each other. ♥

This here is a "Chinese Money Tree". Legend has it that if you have one of these, it will bring you money and good fortune! But be careful... if it's not taken care of properly and it withers away, so will your money, or so they say! =)

In the beginning of Eckhart Tolle's book A New Earth, he explains that flowers are an expression of consciousness; they are an expression of enlightenment within the plant kingdom. I agree. Do you? ♥











I was absolutely amazed by these orchids! WOW... =)


During one of my trips to the jungles of Costa Rica, I came across a fern that would respond to human touch. When I would get close, it would close up it's leaves or sway from side to side as if to say "Hi! I know you're there!" After that experience, I have a whole new level of respect for ferns! =)



It's so important to have an abundance of plants and flowers in our homes. Not only are they beautiful and serve as a nice decoration, but they also provide fresh oxygen for us. I love to have a lot of plants and flowers in my home and in my room, and I feel a deep connection with them. I take care of them, and they take care of me. Somehow, they contribute positive energy to my life. They are my closest friends! =)

I also checked out some pots just for fun. Here are a few that I liked a lot! ♥



And of course, when planting anything in pots make sure to get the ORGANIC soil! Your plants and flowers will appreciate it, as they will be able to produce healthier, more beautiful leaves and flowers. ♥

Thanks for coming with me on the FLOWER POWER adventure! I hope you enjoyed that...
