If there were an award for the best, current, popular music female vocal, I think Celine Dion would not only be the recipent, but the winner. Her voice is incredible. She is also extremely univeral and versatile, as well as, flexible, which proves she can sing just about anything. She possesses great power, control, and range, as well as, authenticity. Her voice is natural (untrained) yet effortless. Even though her voice is effortless, she still connects with the song and not only makes it original, but manages to prove she can project and still deliver what she is selling. She makes you believe what she is singing. Celine is not the highest selling female artist of all time for no reason. There is a reason and that reason alone proves she is talented and worthy of such a reward.

Whitney Houston once possessed the most beautiful female vocal of any popular music star on the planet. Due to her vocals, she received the most rewards and honors out of any female singer in the world. I find her voice brilliant and although, it has changed due to her drug addiction, she is managing to try and get her life back together. She was so effortless in her prime, however; even though she isn't effortless now, she possesses more soul and emotion, than she possessed in the prime stages of her life. Regardless of what the critics and theorists say, Whitney is a popular music legend. If I had to choose a favorite song, I couldn't because she has quite a few amazing songs that I love.

If I had to choose one of the great artists that ever walked planet earth, I would definitely include Prince in my top 10. I love Prince. I love Prince. In fact, he is my favorite artist (if I had to choose). Not just his amazing music, but his stage pressence. He possesses all of the qualities (individualism, universalism, edge, flexibility, vocal talent, stage pressence, entertainment factor, rarity, and originality) of an individual who maintains the "IT" (or incredible talent) factor in modern music persuasion. Not only does Prince write his songs and compose them (using his gift of playing a variety of instruments) he lays down the tracks and he produces everything on his own. If Prince chooses to collaborate, he collaborates, but does not allow himself to be swayed to do something he doesn't want to. Not just this, but Prince is so culturally connected, his music audience consists of every generation of people. Some individuals may find Prince weird or odd because Prince has eclecticism and a good conception of his individualism, but that proves that he is true to himself and clearly knows who he is. Prince has changed music for the better and that makes him qualified and very much worthy to be named the "Prince" of music.

Clay Aiken is one of the most universal, versatile, and original sounding popular music artists in music today. I find him extremely talented on quite a few wavelengths, but what makes him standout is the fact he is flexible and can adapt to anything he sings. His voice is extremely natural, yet powerful, as well as, timeless, yet current. Clay possesses amazing range and his vocals are so unique because he can use eurythmics, without abusing them. He can stay in his element and still sing amazingly. He is very controlled, as well and possesses a natural timbre and gemintated vibrato that is very stunning and very rare to hear in popular music. Clay is great with projecting and connecting to what he sings on more than just an emotional level. When you hear Clay Aiken, you know it is him singing. One of my favorite songs by Mr. Aiken is his cover of "Solitaire". It is truly brilliant. I am very impressed with Clay Aiken as a person and with his vocals.

Kid Rock has definitely brought a lot to the industry. In fact, I would put him in the same league as the band Faith No More. He has managed to combine rock, hip hop, and cross those genres into country. He can sing songs that are upbeat, as well as, standard and ballad. If I had to choose my favorite Kid Rock song, I would definitely say "Only God Knows Why" as that song was the first song I ever heard him sing. I also love his fun upbeat "Wasting Time" as that proves he has personality. He obviously has brought something new to the industry (to which was accepted) and definitely knows who he is as a musician and artist, as a result.

I love ZZ Top for several reasons. Their songs kind of give off quite a few sexual innuendos, but despite that particular vibe, they possess a lot of fun songs, as a result. If I had to choose my favorite song, I would definitely say "Gimme All Your Loving" as it's a great song. ZZ Top is amazing, as their greatest hits CD helped me get through an 18 hour drive. They have managed to take the rock genre and crossover into the blues genre, without losing their edge and universalism. What makes ZZ Top so exceptional is that they are the only band in the history of music that has never changed it members, let alone broke up. They have managed to stay together after so many years. I actually believe that ZZ Top is more "Classic Rock" than Heavy Metal or Hard Rock. One thing is certain, I love them.

One of the most original, yet universal bands to have ever walked on planet earth is definitely Aerosmith. When you hear Steven Tyler and Aerosmith, you know it is them singing. What makes them so interesting is the fact that after all of these years, they have continued to maintain their level of performance in their music and bring something new and amazing each time. They also have remained a band for quite a long time without seperating or being torn a part. I definitely believe Aerosmith is a band to value because they have brought something new to the industry. As a result of this, Aerosmith clearly know their role in music and their place in the industry.

This mascara is amazing. I recommend this to anyone who is a mascara fanatic or who appreciates mascara. A friend of mine does makeup for a living and he applied this product to my eyes and it looked, as if, I had fake eyelashes on. I don't wear fake eyelashes and have never wore them, but actually had the look as if I was wearing them after I used this mascara. I also noticed that I didn't have to reapply this mascara and if I had a minor eye itch, I could rub my eye and it wouldn't smear off. This mascara is clearly amazing. However; it's more expensive than the average mascara quo, but if you want to find a great, quality, mascara this product definitely is your best choice. I do not recommend this to anyone who is not willing to spend a little more for a mascara. I do recommend this mascara to anyone else. I was very impressed and I would definitely use this product again.

This deodorant works amazingly. In fact, almost too good. Although I don't use it reguarly (I have OCD when it comes to hygiene and tend to use a variety of things), I do own it. What makes this product so amazing is the fact that I could apply this to my armpits and be good to go for the entire day. It's very strong in comparison to the regular deodorant. Some people may not like it because it's more on a gel wavelength and kind of combines with your original scent. Some women may complain about this. Some people will complain about the price and may believe that it isn't worth it, in comparison to the original, however; I believe this product would work for anyone who suffers from extreme perspiration or is just looking for a strong, quality deodorant that they can apply and be good to go for the rest of the day. It's not as good as the new Clinical, so I do think it may retire from the shelves. I was impressed with this product and would use it again, but must admit I don't use it often.

I was extremely impressed with Crest Baking Soda & Peroxide Whitening on quite a few wavelengths. I guess because it actually does work. However; do not expect this toothpaste product to work right away, as well as, overnight. You can see a minimal effect and as time proceeds, it slowly increases, as a result. I like it because it works well for me. I've had my teeth whitened and it has helped maintain that level of whiteness. My cousin is a cosmetic dental surgeon and she uses this toothpaste. It's definitely something that is recommended by many professionals, hence why it's a good product. Overall, I was very impressed with this product and would use it again. In fact, I just used it.

I was watching QVC during Christmas time and Leslie from Bare Minerals and Bare Escentuals was on for a full hour. I love watching QVC during that time, because it can get overwhelming shopping where I live, because I live in a very large town. Anyways, I was strictly motivated and determined to try "Bare Escentuals" because of how Leslie stated that the foundation used is good for skin and you can actually sleep in it, without breaking out. The foundation included in this regime possessed quite a few vitamins and minerals, hence why it is it's own individual line. Was she right? She was spot on. I use this brand of cosmetics often and let me tell you, if you are one who doesn't care for a lot of makeup on your face or one who appreciates something that is actually good for your skin, this product is right for you. You do not even feel like you are wearing anything and it covers moderately. It's a little more expensive than many commercial cosmetics, but in realty, it is all worth it. I use the Bare Escentuals line daily and I went breaking out to occassional breakouts to no breakouts at all. The products that Bare Escentuals offers are great and are destined to change anyone's life, as a result.

MAC Cosmetics is amazing! I was introduced to this amazing cosmetic company a few years ago by a friend of mine who does makeup for a living. He suggested to me one night on the phone "Sarah, you have to try MAC Cosmetics" and continued "I use this makeup on the celebrities and people I work with, you are going to love it" hence why we got on the subject of foundation, lip gloss, and mascara (among many other members of the cosmetic family). I was strictly determined and decided to order a few things from the official website. I use a lot of MAC Cosmetics and I am truly impressed. I truly recommend MAC Cosmetics for anyone really. I guess the only people who do not appreciate MAC or wouldn't appreciate MAC are people that aren't willing to spend over $10 for a lip gloss. If you are one of those individuals that wouldn't spend a little extra for quality, I don't recommend MAC to you. Sure their products are more expensive than the average cosmetic quo, but they are worth it, as a result. I could go into detail of their products, but that would take over 5,000 characters.

Ella Fitzgerald is simply a brilliant artist. She managed to bring something new to the industry, without losing her jazz edge or going against the gain and losing her jazz concept. I absolutely love Ella Fitzgerald and I could probably write a review that was much more than 5,000 characters. She is definitely someone I respect and admire. One of my favorite songs by Ella is her cover of George Gerswhin's "Summertime". She definitely brought that song to life. Everything from her vocal to her projection was amazing and she truly made you believe what she was singing, as a result. I think she's one of the best female singers to have ever walked planet earth and what makes her even more amazing is, no one ever sounds like her. She's definitely one of her kind and clearly knew who she was, as well as, her place in music.

Queen is quite possibly the most universal band I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. They have managed to bring something new to the music industry and tackling quite a few genres, without losing their edge. If you listen to songs such as "The Show Must Go On" which is kind of a symphonic metal kind of song or "I Want To Break Free" which is kind of trance/synth rock, you can understand that Queen has remained original, without losing their edge. When you hear Queen (and Freddie) you know it is them and not some amateur or generic band. This band does not only possess a few legends, as a result of such, Queen is technically amazing on quite a few wavelengths. Despite the fact they are technically amazing, doesn't mean they are commercial or common. They have managed to put be the ultimate masters of connecting and projection, hence why their shows are as good as their studio albums. They managed to take a song "Bohemian Rhapsody" and make it the ultimate art form by taking a standard rock aria and crossing over into the classical and opera genres, with a hint of comic informatives. If I had to choose my favorite band or the best band ever, it would be no contest. Without hesitation, I would choose Queen.

Jerry Springer has proved to be the ultimate ethics challenger in talk show world. He is the ultimate king of originality. Despite his guests and their unusual and abnormal personalities and overall behavior, as well as, unique individualisms, Jerry has made it known that his show is his show. He does not care what people think of his show, as it is his show. When you see two people fighting on stage or three people, ETC, you know it's the "Jerry Springer" show. There are many things we can say about this man and how allowing what he does, could be quite unacceptable and well, extreme to the majority of status quo, but inspite of this fact, Jerry has proved to be not only original, but a risk taker who managed to pull it off, as a result, hence why the Jerry Springer show has been around for over 16 years.

Jimmy Kimmel is hillarious and his humor isn't tasteless or tacky, let alone boring or extreme. This is a man that can tell a joke, with a punchline that actually makes sense. He doesn't have to attack people or use ad hominem to be heard nor does he have to be unoriginal. He doesn't care who laughs at his jokes or is amused. I like his show because he brings his humor in a great way, without destroying or overpowering his persona. It is quite obvious he is funny, but he is also a down-to-earth individual who knows he has a purpose, that is extremely important in today's late night talk show world.

I love Montell Williams because he is more than a talk show host. He is someone who is friendly. He is not just a free thinker, but a deep thinker that challenges the majority of status quo society on a variety of issues. I love how he does weekly shows with psychic Sylvia Browne and challenges the vast majority of skeptics. He isn't afraid to try anything new and what makes him stand out is, despite any criticism he receives, he continues to maintain his level of performance, as a result.

Larry King is one of the best television reporters via talk show hosts I have ever watched. He is very honest when he conducts his interviews and does not hesitate to put individuals on the spot. He uses his voice for the right reason, but allows others to use their voices, as well. I like him because he challenges skeptics on quite a few wavelengths, hence why he is more than just Larry King, but the king of all reporters. Every time you watch Larry, you always look forward to what he will say (or ask) next and how it will make an impact on society, as a result.

Oprah Winfrey is an amazing talk show host on quite a few wavelengths. She has proved that working hard eventually pays off for the average status quo citizen. She has managed to use her voice for the right reason and apply her voice to a higher purpose. Despite any criticism or adversity she faces, she manages to prove she will not be thrown into the stereotype. I definitely believe she is someone who should be appreciated, respected, and commended for being who she is, an internationally known talk show host who has brought something new to entertainment.
