Posted by People Magazine.
It seems Victoria Beckham 35, is the next judge of American Idol after replaced Paula Abdul. Victoria wants to be nice to people and contestants, but Paula and Simon Cowell had always had disagreement. Because he is not so nice to other judge and contestant. He is familiar to being prickly judge in the show, so Victoria expects to tread with his prickly judge. She said " I hope he does give me a little bit of a hard time. I love that. I feed off of that."
I know how prickly Simon is and I have never seen Victoria Beckham on the TV show. So I'm sort of interested in how she is going to be fight with Simon on the next season show.

Seafair!!!





Hello, Everyone. I really had good time with my Japanese friend. Today I went to see Seafair in Genesee park. This was my second time to see Blue Angels. I remember last time was unforgettable memory. So this time I bought 2 ticket and took my friend who has never seen this show to Genesee Park. We brought big towels and laid down near on the grass. It was comfortable. Luckily we had shade of a tree. Then, at 1:30 p.m the show has started. Everybody was very very excited and slued to their show. I really enjoyed it! I was a little afraid because they flied very precisely and almost collided head-on. My friend told me how difficult to fly like that. I was so impressed to them. I had good time on both 1st and 2nd time. After we got back home, we went to Shiro- sushi. I ate a lot of sushi. I felt sooooo good! Those picture that I attached was at Everett dinner on Friday. I strongly recommend to have dinner or lunch there if you like seafood.

A female photographer claims to have gotten slapped on her face by Jude Law outside of a London restaurant.
She asserted it was a deliberate hit. However, Jude Law’s lawyer responded that it was an accident, because
when Law went out of the restaurant there was a lot of confusion. He shielded himself from the photographers' lights and thus he flailed his arms around. Then he inadvertently struck the woman in the face. In the end, he apologized to the woman.
One important detail: Pictures of this sort can often be misleading. But.... he has had his brush-ups with snappers before.....
