I'm glad you've never seen Lady Gaga....Her "clothing" is usually so outrageous and ugly, it's unbelievable. Some of her singing is okay. She recently made a duet album with, of all people, Tony Bennett and it's called Cheek to Cheek. It has over 1,000 rave reviews on Amazon. She's really venturing away from her "normal" music. I hope you were able to see and hear the You Tube link I posted. Have a wonderful rest of the week!BECKYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15184458949017900541noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3412682543148147625.post-16348566603698032422015-03-03T22:21:23.361-06:002015-03-03T22:21:23.361-06:00Hi Jess ~ I'm so glad you saw (and heard!)

I do not go to the movies and seldom watch movies on TV so am right out of touch with anything modern in that genre. I did read somewhere there were far less viewers this year than in previous years so maybe I am not the only one who no longer bothers to watch. Would you believe, although I've heard of Lady Gaga, I have never seen her or listened to her sing. These days I am just a regular old fuddy duddy. : )Mimsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00249766510078357225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3412682543148147625.post-42688512496001626852015-02-28T09:50:30.815-06:002015-02-28T09:50:30.815-06:00I only watched some of the Oscars- but I did catch...I only watched some of the Oscars- but I did catch Lady Gaga singing The Sound of Music and I loved it (I am a huge fan of the movie too). :) I haven't been to the movies in ages- but when I go I always try to go when there will be less of a crowd!<br /><br />I agree- COME ON SPRING! :)<br />~JessDMShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04202502753961748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3412682543148147625.post-36081191100964502572015-02-26T16:54:46.032-06:002015-02-26T16:54:46.032-06:00Well, I didn't see much of the Oscars because ...Well, I didn't see much of the Oscars because my husband likes to change the channels quite a bit! And since it wasn't on my "must see" list, I didn't go into the other room to watch. I also had not seen any of the movies. We wait until we can get them a bit cheaper at home. So I missed Lady Gaga and will listen to her on youtube. Did I ever thank you for the Christmas card? Two months ago? Well, if not, "Thank You"! It was a lovely surprise! ; )sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09955726953146797249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3412682543148147625.post-16657914258134924122015-02-25T10:42:12.897-06:002015-02-25T10:42:12.897-06:00I am just upset that I didn't win Best Actor :...I am just upset that I didn't win Best Actor :(Optimistic Existentialisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11507986337866049924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3412682543148147625.post-62703223649865476382015-02-25T07:18:02.473-06:002015-02-25T07:18:02.473-06:00Nope.

I've loved movies all my life, but some movies of the past few decades have far too much profanity for my taste though some of them are excellent otherwise. We can find so many through streaming that we never go to a movie theater. My daughter has dog ears, and the sound in theaters is so loud, her ears can't take it. So we wait for movies to come on Netflix or Hulu. Sometimes we pay for one on Amazon.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3412682543148147625.post-50843981503528990182015-02-23T11:28:24.396-06:002015-02-23T11:28:24.396-06:00We did not see it over here so misesd out.
