Carly Simon called him, “The voice that can change the world.”
His sophomore album, Brendan James, debuted at number 1 on iTunes.
You’ve heard his songs on many TV shows such Private Practice and Bones.
Oprah Magazine says he sounds Like David Gray.
I am speaking of Brendan James of course.
Watch Brendan perform The Fall live on CBS’ Second Cup Cafe:
It seems like anything goes in LA these days as this city attracts all kinds of different folks with different tastes. And that is what makes this city so incredibly unique, cool, magical, and weird.
I was driving to a major studio in Burbank, and needed directions as I was a bit lost. I turned into a side street, in the hopes of finding a homeowner or other pedestrian who would be familiar with the area and who could help me find my way.
So, what do I find in the middle of LA?
A cowboy and his pet horse, of course. The cowboy, holding on to his grazing horse, was chatting up on the cell phone on his front yard as if this was no big deal. When I asked if I could take a picture of him for my site, he said, “I have two more horses in the backyard if you wanna see.”
“Oh, no, thank you!” I replied. This one horse was more than enough to make my day.
Season 7 of Desperate Housewives premieres on ABC tonight and Eva Longoria-Parker met with her good friend, Mario Lopez of Extra to talk about the new season.

How is Brothers & Sisters going to take care of all of this mayhem this season? With a jump-ahead-in-time plot of course!
Grant says the jump in time will quickly allow the viewers to move on and grow. “We are starting these characters in new worlds,” he says. “These characters are really trying to reinvent themselves or to get through some really significant hurdles. I think we’re going to really hold these characters’ feet to the fire in terms of figuring out what they need to deal with and what they need to get past.”
I recently met up with two of the show’s stars, Rachel Griffiths (Sarah) and Gilles Marini (Luc) at the 2010 ABC Red Carpet Premiere Event. Check out the photos and video of Rachel and Gilles below.

If you want to randomly run into a celebrity, you should start with no other place than The Grove in Los Angeles.
Every day, bigger and bigger stars are accidentally found roaming the beautiful outdoor shopping attraction.
Take today for example, I was walking around and all of the sudden, ran smack into one of the biggest musicians of all time: Stevie Wonder.
Extra TV broadcasts their shows from The Grove, and Mario Lopez was there as well and just as starstruck running into Stevie Wonder as I was. Check out the video:
A mere few hours after having flown back to the States from a trip to Italy and France, Kim Kardashian was back to work at The Grove for an Extra interview with Mario Lopez today.
Tweeting to her many fans and followers, Kim wrote, “Heading to The Grove to see my buddy Mario Lopez! Fun interview for Extra! Who’s at The Grove???”

My Generation, one of the new fall TV shows I have been looking forward to watching, premieres tonight on ABC. The show’s concept intrigues me: A film crew which made an unreleased documentary about nine members of an Austin high school Class of 2000 returns to see what happened to them after a tumultuous decade that included 9/11, Iraq, Afghanistan, Enron and more. The film crew follows the personal stories of these nine friends and the promises they thought their futures held, all told through the camera of a documentary film crew.
My Generation stars Michael Stahl David as Steven, Jaime King as Jacqueline, Kelli Garner as Dawn, Keir O’Donnell as Kenneth, Mehcad Brooks as Rolly, Julian Morris as Anders, Daniella Alonso as Brenda, Anne Son as Caroline, Sebastian Sozzi as Falcon and Elizabeth Keener as the filmmaker.
Based on a Swedish format entitled On God’s Highway, My Generation was created and written by Noah Hawley (The Unusuals, Bones), who is also an executive producer along with Warren Littlefield, Henrik Bastin, Peter Magnusson and Martin Persson. Craig Gillespie directed the pilot.
I recently met up with the cast of My Generation at the 2010 ABC Red Carpet Premiere Event.
