So teen heartthrob Chris Brown was featured on Blender recently where he did a photo shoot (<3.) and “intense” questionnaire. You can read the full article after the cut.

Your self-portrait looks kind of scary and freaky, Chris.
I drew myself in a goofy persona: a reject, a nerd.

Is that how you see yourself, as a reject?
Well, it’s how other people don’t see me. I try to be different from everybody.

Did you wear glasses as a kid, nerd?
I had glasses from sixth grade to the eighth grade, for astigmatism. I used to get headaches all the time.

What did your 10th-grade report card say?
A’s, A’s, A’s. Straight A’s, all through kindergarten, elementary school, middle school …

What were your best subjects?
Math and science.

You really were a nerd. Did kids give you shit about being smart?
No. ’Cause I’d beat ’em up.

Kelly Rowland ft. Gym Class Heroes – “Daylight”

Here is the Ms. Kelly’s new single, “Daylight,” featuring Gym Class Heroes. The song will officially release January 2008 of next year whilst the re-release of the Ms. Kelly (Columbia) album. This is a real interesting collaboration, one I would not really expect from Kelly – which is good, I like it a lot! “Daylight” has a nice, old school go-go feel to it and Kelly’s ad-libs are so stellar on this track. Wicked!

Movie Reviews: Beowulf

OK, so, I finally got to see Robert Zemeckis’ Beowulf this weekend at the movie theaters. I felt I just had to make up for missing Transformers, call me a sucker for fantasy, but it was nothing as I anticipated it to be. Beowulf, which stars Angelina Jolie opposite Ray Winstone, appeared set in a mediaeval atmosphere in accordance with the Old English and overall attire. The movie started off a tad bit vague for me, everything was bits and pieces until the ending; which grasped my mere forethoughts but only leaving a visible unclearness in the latter. It was still, nonetheless, a heart-ponding, havoc wreaking movie. I say, the moral of the story here is vanity has its downfall, meaning pride is a curse, being one of the 7 deadly sins and all. This seems as though the only conclusion I can come to culmination with. I really enjoyed scenes, though. The visuals, artistry, and definition were flawless, as Zemeckis’ films always are (Polar Express). 4.5/5
