As a kid l grew up with a lot of dreams but along the way they all shattered away like dust into mud by the rain. l grew up in a small village called Matsapha in Swaziland, like every child with a mom and a father had no worries and stress just to go to school and come back to play.
It was 1997 when my life changed, see My father was a military man and he drank too much, though he was never abusive a very generous man who loved his wife and son so much. Trough an illness that the doctors said it affected his lungs and kidney my father lost his life and my mom was to be the "bread winner" from being a house wife. I asked her where dad was and her words were"Your father has visited heaven and he will come back again soon". I waited for my father to return all the next years but l guess he...

Shame on you. Shame on you for gouging honest people of their hard earned money by monopolizing event tickets. Shame on you for making it impossible for some people to experience watching their favourite team play or seeing their favourite band live onstage. Shame on you for scavenging off of other individuals’ talent, work ethic, and contribution to our society. Shame on you for even thinking you have the right to profit from these hard working, committed, and not to mention uber talented players/performers. Where do you get off? How could so much greed and entitlement be embedded in you? I just don’t understand.
I’m sure you know where this anger and resentment is stemming from. As a huge fan of the Tragically Hip, I have devotedly sat at my computer to purchase tickets for the Man...

Dear Star Plus, Rajan Shahi Sir, and Karan Mehra
It has been precisely seven years, five months, and six days since yrkkh started. I have been following this show since its first episode. It is because the concept was so interesting and beautiful. The concept itself of love after marriage looked so appealing. Yeh Rishta brought and showcased arrange marriage in such a promising and beautiful way. The leads Naitik and Akshara played by Karan Mehra and Hina Khan instantly grabbed attention because they made such an eye pleasing and beautiful couple. The chemistry they shared was just so simple yet so much fun and impressive. Each and every character, be it gayatri, rajashree, vishamber, dadaji,Dadi, rajbana, rashmi, varsha, shaurya, nandini, bhola bhaiya, dhaniya, gopi dadi, nani jee,...

First of all, I’m going off the information I’m finding on Twitter and also on Tumblr, some things may not be worded exactly how they happened but I am too upset/annoyed to even watch the Broadcasts myself.
And as I am posting this I cannot find them on V-Live.
Please feel free to add your own messages or thoughts.
To the Management/Producers behind the V-Live show, Flower Crew.
Your voting system was a stupid and flawed idea, admit it. Bringing one member from one of the most, if not THE most popular boyband in Korea right now, onto this show was going to cause MANY people to watch this, Korean and International fans.
As many people have stated, you should have clearly thought of how many people watch BTS on average and also thought of how many hearts their Live Broadcasts...

My dearest Beyoncé,
I hope this letter finds you in perfect health and in the highest of spirits. My name is Jahmeel and I am just one who stands amongst your millions of adoring and loyal fans. But more specifically, I remain rooted in the ever present and may I add, militant ranks of the BeyHive. Over the years I have had the pleasure of watching you grow as an artist, though unfortunately I have up to this date been unable to attend one of your shows, I have made it a point of duty to incorporate your music (from all 6 albums) into my everyday routine.
It heals me. It reminds me that life is merely a reflection of whatever I think and perceive it to be. It gives me comfort in times of distress and fuels my desire to always strive for excellence in whatever I do. More importantly...

Well it's Thursday evening, and I'm at home about to whip up some din and I hear a "da da da daaaaaa" sound from my phone.
Nothing out of the ordinary, just my local news app letting me know something is going down in my area. Awesome. I swipe down to check out what the headline is, andddddddddddd instant eyeroll... Just another update on this Plum teacher sex scandal. Seriously? How long has it been now, is the horse not dead? Of course not! This is news! This is media-worthy!
And I get it...trust me..I get it. I have nothing but the highest respect for all journalists. The job is not all glitz and glam behind the cam. It's hard work. So hard that I decided to drop my Broadcasting major right in the beginning of my senior year of college.
I was way more into the glitz and glam...

I want to bring this issue under your kind notice that the movie “Maalik” has been banned all over Pakistan. It is a new topic in Pakistan’s industry as the story was about the leaders and politicians of Pakistan.
Three weeks after Ashir Azeem’s directed movie ‘Maalik’ premiered at the theatres all across Pakistan, the Federal Information Ministry and Sindh government has banned the film. No such reason has been specified in the notifications. The film has been accused by some quarters because the topic is promoting ethnic racism and showing Pakistani politicians in bad light. It has been banned because it shows Pakistan’s former chief minister as a man of corruption.
My issue is that why this movie has been banned when no such other authentic reason is raised due to which it should be...

Dear Kangana and Hrithik,
As a fan…. I am going to stop here and put this word “fan” used too loosely too often in perspective. A fan, who spends their middle class income on entertainment made by you and your talented teams. A fan, who invests their time (closely 3 hours) in entertainment made by you and your talented teams. A fan, who parts ways with her pragmatism and rationale when watches with wonder, entertainment made by you and your talented teams. A fan, who has to shift and reschedule her busy middle class work, home, and children to watch entertainment made by you and your talented teams. A, fan for whom the heroes are not just actors but the technicians, writers, unit directors and the little man holding the light.
So going back to where we started, as a fan, I humbly...

Stop the Spit
What is my pain that you trample it through the dirt?
My body abused, unearthed from my dignity
Well positioned for the pleasure of your calloused eyes
You, who pretend to regenerate me in blood – in vengeance
Create instead a monster, soul less, inhuman
An Open Letter to Meir Zarchi, writer/director of the I Spit on Your Grave movies,
Not many movies can boast success from its low budget origins with a popular franchise decades later. So from a commercial standpoint, your achievements are undeniable. However, your success comes at the price of monetizing rape as entertainment. I can see how a possible message of empowerment for rape victims is layered beneath the gore and shocking images. But, empowerment comes in the form of brutal revenge which complicates any...
