Highs and Lows: Total Divas - Season 4 - Episode 8!

Highs and Lows of the previous episode! http://natalyaon.blogspot.com/2015/08/highs-and-lows-total-divas-season-4_20.html

Highs

Brie's Singing

Brie was tasked with singing a remix of her theme song after being asked by the WWE. She was reluctant to do this, admitting she couldn't sing and in the studio she proved herself correct. It's always funny to watch someone who can't sing, try to sing. 

Nattie tries to act youthful and lets her hair down

Nattie attempted to be cool and 'down with the kids' after fears she was too old to still be a WWE Diva. Cue urban slang and a 'unique' handshake with WWE Superstar R-Truth. Her husband TJ's reaction and facial expression said it all. No No. At the same time, it was nice to see Nattie let her hair down at the bar with the Divas, even if it was for the wrong reasons. I love fun Nattie. This is the Nattie I would want to hang out with!

Nikki's Singing

For some reason, Nikki being all competitive wanted to prove that she was a better singer than her sister. She met with WWE composer Jim Johnston to sing her own version of her theme song and let's just say that she wasn't all that good. She was just as bad, if not, worse than her sister. Unlike Brie, she actually thought she was good. it was very reminiscent of bad auditions from talent shows of people who believe they can see. Funny. 

Tamina Goes Crazy over random guy

After this episode, I learnt never to mess with Tamina, who went HAM on some random guy, who thought he could square up to the Divas and attempted to kick at them. Go Tamina.

Brie Plays Joke on Nikki

Tired of her competitive sister, Brie decided to play a little joke on her by pretending that Nikki was given a gig to sing the national anthem in front of a bunch of spectators. Nikki believed her sister, practicing and failing miserably at her attempt to sing the national anthem until Brie put her out of her misery. Good on Nikki for trying though. Nothing wrong with a trier.


Lows

Nattie Cries

I felt for Nattie when she broke down into tears because she felt like she wasn't good enough for the WWE. There was a raw truth behind her tears due to the lack of opportunities she has received compared to some other Divas.

Paige Tests her boyfriend

Fellow WWE Diva and friend Rosa Mendez suggested that Paige test her boyfriend's loyalty, after Paige felt her boyfriend was a little too close to one of his fangirls. This was achieved by sending a random girl over to flirt with her boyfriend to see if he would do anything. He passed the test, but he was not too pleased when he found out about Paige and Rosa's intentions. At least Paige learnt not to take Rosa's advice next time.

Notable Quotes

"I love playing a bad guy. I love playing a b*tch," - Paige

"Do we need to stop and get you an education?" Brie to Nikki

"We're getting there. We're not, I'm lying," - Jim Johnston

"Why am I letting a number dictate my self worth?" - Nattie

NPop Thoughts Of The Week! (29/08/15)

You can find last week's thoughts of the week here! http://natalyaon.blogspot.com/2015/08/its-friday-npop-thoughts-of-week.html

Fear ruins everything. It can stop you from taking up on opportunities and therefore it's easy to miss out on something that could have been good or life changing. Every chance we take we learn something new about ourselves, good or bad. It can be scary breaking out of our comfort zones, but once it's all said and done it's worth it.

Highs and Lows: Big Brother UK vs USA Launch!

It's that time of year again where 'celebrities' are thrust into the big brother house! This time it's a UK vs USA theme, where I presume the two nations face off against each other in a series of tasks to determine a winner! Which team are you on?

Highs

Fatman Scoop Enters the Big Brother house

This was a big catch for big brother as Fatman Scoop was a big star back in the day. He is best known for his catchy club hit and classic 'Be Faithful', which is possibly one of the best songs from the noughties. He seems like he is going to be a big character who will no doubt bring energy and hopefully entertainment to the house.

Austin Armacost says Customer Service is ****

This made me laugh, only because it reminded me of something that Jack Whitehall talked about when comparing American Customer Service to Britain's. Watch the clip here!

Stevi Ritchie and Chloe Jasmine's VT

When I first heard rumours that this X Factor couple were going in the house I wasn't particularly enthused about it. They seemed abit like a British version of Spencer Pratt and Heidi Montag in that they are only out for publicity, at least in my view. I don't know if that's the case but their VT showed off their little quirks, likability factor and their cuteness as an odd couple. The public seemed to agree as the couple received a good reaction. I think they're harmless.

Natasha Hamilton picks Farrah Abraham not to go to party

After all of the celebrity housemates had entered the Big Brother house, Big Brother set the housemates their first task. The two nations had to get into their respective teams and shoot cannon balls at the cardboard heads of the opposite team. Whoever knocked the most heads off won the task, which the UK won 3-1. Big Brother asked the UK team to pick three of their US housemates which they did not want at their party to celebrate winning the task. Whilst the housemates were being all annoyingly indecisive, Natasha wasted no time in picking Farrah because she was a 'sore loser'. Natasha's words. Farrah obviously wasn't pleased with this, but I got a little kick out of it.


Lows

Farrah Abraham enters the Big Brother house

I'd heard about her from the sex tape that was released of her some time ago, not forgetting the fact that she appeared in teen mom also. I don't get a good vibe from her. Apart from appearing to be plastic and what is wrong with society, she doesn't seem like she will be the most pleasant of people. I could be wrong but we'll see!

Daniel Baldwin enters the Big Brother House

They left Daniel Baldwin until last as the 'biggest celebrity' or 'star power' to enter the house. Nothing wrong with the guy of course, but he's not Alec Baldwin.

No Hulk Hogan

I really hoped Hulk Hogan would be coming into the house. He has huge star power and is a legend. Plus, the man needs something to redeem himself after the whole race controversy surrounding him.

Sherrie Hewson shoots cannon without ball

Sherrie somehow forgot to grab the ball to insert into the cannon and shot the cannon without the ball in place. Funny. She seems to be very scatty though, which I can see getting annoying as I was already annoyed by it and it's only the first episode.

Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson and Liam Payne CONFIRM One Direction are taking a break!

For this week's news of the week click here! http://natalyaon.blogspot.com/2015/08/npop-news-of-week-170815-230815.html

Rumours had been recently circulating that One Direction were to split up next year for a year break while the group pursued solo projects. Showbiz reporter Dan Wootton posted the news on twitter after he had been told by a source of One Directions' plans, causing One Direction to trend on twitter. Fans were left confused, worried and upset at the fact that One Direction could be splitting up but the three boys of One Direction broke their silence on twitter, confirming that they were only taking a break. Phew! Here is what Niall posted on his twitter page.

"Ok so lots of rumours going round. We are not splitting up, but we will be taking a well earned break at some point next year. Don't worry though, we still have lots we want to achieve! Can't wait for you to hear all the new music we have for you and to perform. Some new songs as the tour continues! Love you all xx"

And Louis Tomlinson.

"Your support is truly indescribable! It's just a break :) we're not going anywhere!! Promise."

Aaaaand Liam Payne!

"So glad everything has been cleared up today and your support with it is amazing, not that we could ever expect anything less your amazing. Can't wait to put more time into everything we do and coming out with something great. Thank you so much for everything you have done for us, it's been the most amazing five years and there's so much more to come."

So there you have it! The boys will be back! Who knows, maybe Zayn will cave in and come back as well, eh?
