Great comedy can bring people together. Some standups don't know how to relate to everyone. That's why you see instant backlash and isolated people at shows.

It is important to win the crowd over and get them on your side. Not everyone can do this effectively. Greatness takes time, dedication, and practice. The best in showbiz don't become famous overnight.

Russell Peters is one of the greats. He belongs in the best standup comedians conversation. You see Russell engages in risky behaviors and his audience loves him for that.

This comic will make fun of anybody. Hell, he'll even make fun of himself. When you're not afraid to tell jokes, you sell out crowds easier. Moreover, he tackles challenging subjects in a sarcastic manner.

Born in Toronto Canada, he qualifies as one of the funniest Canadians. Plus, his Indian background contributes a great deal to his material. You could compare him to Aziz Ansari but there is only one Russell Peters. Make no mistake, his style and delivery are unmistakeable.

Many of his jokes are unrepeatable, of course, because they are NSFW (Not Safe For Work). In other words, repeating his comedy at your job could get you fired. So, proceed with caution. Tread on thin ice if you don't want to offend anybody.

Everyone must know the importance of timing in standup comedy. Russell Peters delivers like Amazon, right on time. Right now is Russell Peters time to shine. The celebrity is singing You Are My Sunshine on his way to the bank. He has a lot to be happy about.

The 46-year-old is one of the highest paid comedians according to Forbes. He makes $21 million per year. That's almost as much as LeBron James' take home pay. I highly recommend watching his Almost Famous standup special. And I look forward to seeing his future work.

Why Keira Knightley Is The Perfect Actress

Why Keira Knightley Is The Perfect Actress

Keira Knightley is one of my favorite actresses. I believe she is the best British entertainer right now. Moreover, her qualities as an actor are perfect. At 31, who has accomplished as much as this Hollywood star?

She poetically portrays characters on the silver screen. Also, nothing gets in the way of her delivering top notch results. Keira Knightley is known for superior performances. The Hollywood actress is laser focused in her films. You can easily see how her hard work pays dividends.

In my mind, Keira Knightley should sit next to Julia Roberts at the Academy Awards. Why don't I arrange the Oscars seating charts with Keira Knightley's Name between Roberts and mine?; that's just a suggestion. Like Brie Larson, she's one of the best actresses in showbiz. The red carpet was made for her footprints.

This phenomenal actress is one of the reasons I recommend Collateral Beauty. She helps bring the story to life as her character pulls off an amazing performance. I literally love Keira Knightley, who plays the abstract Love, in Collateral Beauty.

Additionally, she steals the spotlight from Benedict Cumberbatch in the Imitation Game. The wonderful thespian convinces the audience that her character, a cryptanalyst, helps save the world from destruction. Did you know that the movie is based on a true story?

As you can tell, Keira Knightley is everything you want in an actress. She has the look and style plus the talent minus the attitude. Sure, she seems a little sassy but that's how we like it, right? When you make it to the top, you're entitled to special privileges.

Knightley has earned significant star power by consistently shining throughout her illustrious career. She's earned endorsements by commanding attention to her cause. Through constant repetition and memorization, Keira Knightley became one of the highest paid and most in-demand actresses of all time. As far as I'm concerned, Keira Knightley is the perfect actress.

Priyanka Chopra: From Bollywood to Hollywood

What's your favorite TV show? ABC offers excellent programming choices. Do you like sitcoms such as Modern Family or dramas such as Scandal? How about Quantico? Whatever you have a taste for is on ABC. Lately, I've been consuming episodes of Quantico on demand.

I can't get enough of Priyanka Chopra. The Quantico star is someone to write home about. Isn't she something special? This former Miss World may be the hottest babe on TV.

I hope they give Priyanka a pay raise because she's too good to lose. Moreover, the actor is the main reason we watch Quantico, right? Let's face it, Chopra presents a hot body of work like Sofia Vergara. TV viewers are treated to one of a kind good looks.

Still, if you go beyond her charming good looks, you'll discover she's extremely talented too. She's already made a name for herself in Bollywood. Right now, she's taking her turn on Hollywood Boulevard.

Are you looking forward to watching her performance in Baywatch or what? Picture Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron both vying for her attention on the silver screen. They already publicly admitted they're infatuation with her. Who do you think is more her type? That's right Priyanka Chopra can have any man she likes.

Who else can't get enough of Priyanka Chopra? The Indian beauty is easy on the eyes. Additionally, she's devoted to developing her gifts.

Clearly, Chopra knows she's one of the best in showbiz. Plus, Priyanka can handle the entertainment world's pressure. Her Bollywood experience counts for something.

Chopra can convince anyone of anything. Whatever she's selling, people are buying. They eat her up like chocolate chip cookies. They need more of her sugar. The Bollywood to Hollywood actress is maximizing her potential and fulfilling her dreams. What is more, she's making the man very rich.

The Dynamic Acting of Cameron Diaz

The Dynamic Acting of Cameron Diaz

Someone is walking into the tallest building downtown and he's creating a scene. It appears there's a blonde woman with him. What's that? The woman is a badass like Drew Barrymore and Lucy Liu. Plus, she's comparable to Reese Witherspoon.

Oh, it's O.K. That someone happens to own a magazine. And that woman he's with is none other than the one and only Cameron Diaz. Every now and then, people require imagery like this as much as their thirst for water.

SOME LIKE IT HOT

Moreover, milk does the body good. If there's a lady who's all that it's Cameron Diaz. Cameron's body of work reminds you of Sofia Vergara because like Sofia it's hot. Although she's not technically a comedienne, Cameron cracks you up in movies such as Bad Teacher. Maybe, the Hollywood actress could be casted in the Hot Pursuit sequel.

For what it's worth, Cameron Diaz doesn't look a day over 36. I guess Ben Stiller was right. There's something about Mary foreal. Diaz even wrote a book spilling her perfect body secrets.

Also, there's no business like showbiz. This actor shows how hard work pays off over time. According to sources, her networth is about $140 million. In other words, Cameron Diaz doesn't have to work anymore.

How do you calculate the entertainment value of this celebrity? Where do I begin? Cameron is energetic and fantastic. Plus, she is a people person and maybe a people pleaser.

It's always a joy seeing Cameron Diaz smile. She's so sweet. Only Julia Roberts has a sweeter smile.

Who thinks they should do Charlie's Angels one more time? I think Diaz would do it.

We love Cameron Diaz for the same reason we love Jennifer Aniston. She is like a Friend. Do you get it? I'll wait for that to sink in.

Plus, America Ferrera is worth the wait... in line. The Superstore sitcom has entered its second season, thanks in large part to America's presence. Believe it!

I watch the Superstore every week because America Ferrera gives me everything I need. Superstore is a funny show based on reality. Ferrera does a fine job showcasing her superior attributes and features.

How many actors are on her level? She has received major acting roles from Ugly Betty to the Sisterhood of Traveling Pants due to her dedication. Whether you are a TV actor, theater performer, or movie star you admire America's abilities. Ferrera appreciates the privilege to perform.

Kristen Bell: From House of Lies to the Good Place

BY: GURU JAY

Celebrity vegan Kristen Bell is in the news because her new show the Good Place is a hit. I expect this program to be around for at least three years. It has all the right elements to succeed. Doesn't everybody love Ted Danson as well? Or maybe, that's Raymond but Cheers to Ted.

You get my drift. If Anna Fariscarved her career path out with a machete, Kristen Bell made waves with a surfboard. Many men fantasize about getting CPR from this hot Lifeguard lead actress.

It appears Kristen Bell is done with lying on the House of Lies but she's still in the house. I watched the first two episodes of the Good Place and I'm impressed. I'm not won over easily. You have to go the extra mile and knock it out the park with me. Having high standards is rare.

Have you noticed how much the celebrity contributes to original entertainment in various ways? She's a staple on TV from Showtime to NBC. Plus, her Hollywood pictures perform big numbers at the box office. Don't forget the actor's doing voiceovers in movies such as Frozen too.

Excluding Frozen, what is your favorite Bell movie? Some of my favorites include: the Boss, Forgetting Sarah Marshall, and You Again.

You see Kristen Bell stands at 5'1” but she's really 6'2” on Twitter. Because being a celebrity adds 1 foot to your height, she's one of the tallest women in the world. Take Tom Cruise for instance. How tall do you think he is? Tom Cruiseis actually a giant.

I am having fun here. Right now, the blonde actress has a full plate and can retire when she gets ready. Remember it's never too late to become famous. Many people in the entertainment business get off to a late start. Everybody can't reach stardom as quick as the one and only Kristen Bell.

Are You Addicted to Power TV?

BY: GURU JAY

Photo By: Wikimedia Commons

My brother first told me about the Power TV show on Starz back in 2014. Now, my sister watches it and everybody in my circle does so too. For what it's worth, I've watched every episode in every season; and, I can attest to the TV show's exceptional quality.

I think anybody concerned with gaining street knowledge should watch Power because there are morals to their stories. Although Tommy should be idolized, you do realize that he's going to end up in a body-bag eventually? Also, you might as well conclude that Ghost is dead already since everybody has took a stab at killing him since season 1. There's clearly a plot to kill.

But James St. Patrick is strong. He won't die. Remember what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Omari Hardwick's character is fundamentally fit to be a drug kingpin for years to come. And dying right now is bad for business, specifically the marketing department.

It's the characters that give life to the story. Who's your favorite character? Isn't Omari Hardwick the best actor? And Joseph Sikora is the shit too. But my favorite character is SPOILER ALERT... Lobos (sorry to see you go.)

I like Lobos aka Jefe (translated as Boss in Spanish) the best because he did the least amount of work and reaped the most amount of money. While everybody was doing the dirty work, Lobos kept his hands and feet manicured and pedicured, respectively. They feared and respected him the most.

The writers room on Power come up with incredible ideas. The writers don't stop developing their story lines. There is always something unexpected in the script. Moreover, the directors and producers take their time positioning key players and putting key pieces in place. I love creator Courtney A. Kemp.

Finally, the music contributes significantly to Power's greatness. Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson created a few good songs for the show. Big Rich Town and I'm the Man are on my playlist right now.

Are you addicted to the TV show? It is a superior product for certain. Everything about Power is excellent.

Why Seth Rogen Is Canada's Complete Comedic Actor

BY: GURU JAY

Comedy offers possibilities. Seth Rogen should play a role in Mission Impossible. He could spend some extra time in the gym with Tom Cruise's personal training help.

Canada's complete comedic actor puts the “Can” in Canada. You thought I was going to say trash or recycle bin maybe, didn't you? My advice is to light up your cigars because this thing called life is hard sometimes.

You see comedians light up the world in dark times. We need more laughter and less tears. That's why I'm blogging about comedy today.

Seth Rogen is one of my favorite comedians. You could argue that he is one of the best in showbiz. He just does a good job imitating Drake- that's all.

I'll never forget his joke about Facebook in Funny People. He gave Jonah Hill a comedy lesson. Plus, Adam Sandler got a few pointers (or should I say Pokes) from Seth.

I highly recommend watching Pineapple Express. Who else can't wait to see Seth and James Franco star in Pineapple Express 2? For one, Rogen and Franco go together like beans and cornbread. Who remembers Green Latern? Have you seen the controversial Interview movie?

I like Seth Rogen because he regulates the comedy world. Seth understands how to Dougie. He can teach you how to do it too.

While I'm on the topic of dancing, check out his Lip Sync Battle with Jimmy Fallon? It's on YouTube right now. You'll also enjoy his appearance on the Ellen Show.

In many ways, his comedy comes on you unexpectedly. He never forces his material. The laid back celebrity keeps a low profile and does what is needed.

Are you waiting for Neighbors 2 DVD to hit store shelves? Was Sausage Party funny? I feel Seth Rogen hasn't maximized his true potential yet. Could you imagine a Seth Rogen and Zach Galifianakiscollaboration? They could make a rap song to satisfy fans. With 4.5 million Twitter followers, that's a whole lot of potential greatness.

Emmys 2016 Recap: Red Carpet and Winners

Emmys 2016 Recap: Red Carpet and Winners

Photo By: Wikimedia Commons

Could you feel the good vibrations on the red carpet last night?

Hopefully, you got a chance to watch the Emmy Awards. In this blog, we will experience it again. In case you missed it, you'll also appreciate my recap.

To begin with, the interviews set the tone for the night. There was a little something for everybody. Are you much into fashion and style? Did you enjoy seeing the actresses and actors strutting their stuffs?

We saw John Travolta and Amy Schumerarrive on the scene. Naturally, Amy said something inappropriate. And Travolta was cool like he's been- for the past 40 years.

The Emmys literally started up their engines as host Jimmy Kimmel hitchhiked with TV and showbiz's biggest stars. To start it off, he got a little Carpool Karaoke for us from James Corden. Of course, Jimmy was kicked out of the car because of his bad singing. Other celebrities including Julia Louis-Dreyfus kicked him to the curb.

Entertainment award shows are the highlight of an entertaining season. After all that hard work, talent is rightly rewarded by the Television Academy. There were tons of winners Sunday- too many to name everyone.

Jeffrey Tambor was the talk of the Tinseltown because of his performance in Transparent. It seems Transparent owned the night. In fact, Jimmy Kimmel handed Tambor an Emmy when the show first started.

Tori Kelly sang a beautiful Hallelujah honoring the memories of those we lost this year ending with Prince. Louie Anderson won the first award. Were fans pleased to see Mr. Robot take home an Emmy or what? Plus, Game of Thrones and Veep were recognized with multiple wins.

Moreover, The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story won big. Courtney B. Vance and Sterling K. Brown took home Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor, respectively. You also saw Key & Peele receive their respects they paid dearly for on the comedic side. It's all about sacrifice.

To be honest, the Emmys were dull but enjoyable with coffee. I don't fault the nominees because the TV shows themselves are incredible. I suggest more music and/or better clips next time. Otherwise, Everything was all good.

Don Cheadle: From Hotel Rwanda to House of Lies

BY: GURU JAY

From Hotel Rwanda to House of Lies, Don Cheadle has come a long way. Great actors come along in not so great times. And Don defines greatness.

You see Cheadle can play anyone, and he does it all too well. Moreover, he is instantly recognizable whether at the Waldorf Astoria or up in Harlem at the Cotton Club. Everybody likes Don Cheadle.

He readjusts his mirrors when the time is right. Plus, there is never a dull moment with the movie star in the driver's seat. I'm also interested in seeing Don Cheadle take his director's chair to the next level.

The chemistry between Don Cheadle and Kristen Bell is amazing. Maybe, I'll write a blog about Bell pretty soon. Didn't he bring the best out of her? Cheadle brings out the best in people because he is the best. That's why actors enjoy working with him. They strive for greatness together.

You see he has fans all over the world. Cheadle's starred in blockbusters and critically acclaimed films alike. It is incredible watching him perform with Robert Downey Jr in Iron Man and Captain America. What is more, he easily plays good cop/ bad cop. The Brooklyn's Finest actor has finely tuned his instrument. Who can deny Don Cheadle's talented abilities?

I feel Don Cheadle is elite because of his dedication. How else do you explain why House of Lies ran 5 successful seasons on Showtime? Without commitment at the top, nothing really happens.

Here's the truth about House of Lies. The show could have gone on forever. Cheadle's that much of an asset to any cast. Whatever the situation you put him in, he continually rises to the occasion.

Does he disappoint sometimes? Sure. I think Traitor was a blunder on his part. Still, you can't succeed without learning from failure.

Ellen DeGeneres Should Make Oprah Money

BY: GURU JAY

Ellen DeGeneres Should Make Oprah Money

The generous Ellen DeGeneres generates electricity on the Ellen show. When the lights are out, the first thing you do is call the electric company. How about giving Ellen a call the next time this happens. I can't make any promises but I'm sure she'll at least make you smile.

For 14 years Ellen has been doing exactly that and eating the cake. Everyday on the Ellen Show is like your birthday. You never know what's up her sleeves. The celebrity is full of surprises.

Soon, she'll be giving away cars to everybody like Oprah did. Like orange is the new black, Ellen is the new Oprah. You watch.

Wouldn't it be great if she starred on the Netflix hit OITNB? At a minimum, she could make a cameo or maybe voiceover even. Who's waiting?

Her creativity assists in an entertaining experience. Speaking of experience, who else in showbiz (but Oprah) can match her clout?

Another thing- what if she did Carpool Karaoke with James Corden? That's why I love celebrities and entertainment so much. There's a whole lot we can do. Let your imagination run wild and I'll take you there.

Do you like the Ellen show? I'll say it again! Ellen DeGeneres is a standup gal. You like to watch her because she's amazing at monologues and interviews.

Last week was premiere week on Ellen. I got a chance to watch the full Friday show live. In case you missed it, Tom Hanks made a grand entrance. What is more, DeGeneres donated her largest gift in history to her home state of Louisiana. As you may know, Louisiana got hit hard by flooding recently.

Ellen couldn't stand by and watch this devastation. This is why Britney Spears (who took the famous Ed O'Neill Selfie) joined the team. Right now, it is incredible that the talk show host is backing up her words with action.
