#TheRoundUp by Enzer - No. 32


All around the World!


HOT ON TV


MILEY CYRUS AT THE VMAs: Why is everyone so focused on Miley’s transformation and wild antics? Yes, I know that what she’s doing and how she’s doing whatever she’s doing is worth talking (or gossiping) about (oh, and I bet magazines with her on the cover are selling like hot cakes too) but on the other hand I feel like most people are missing the point.



The point?

Yes, the point!

Miley Cyrus has one of the most beautifully structured bodies in Hollywood. Nobody ever talks about that! Every time I see Miley Cyrus on the red carpet or on stage performing, her body always captures my attention. It looks fit and healthy and her skin is perfection (I’d love to touch it). Her outfits are very revealing (according to some) but in 2015, I am not complaining. Miley, if you’ve got it, flaunt it, work it and show it off ‘till it cracks! #Done

NOW, BACK TO THE SHOW: I had a good time! The 2015 MTV Video Music Awards aired live from Los Angeles on MTV in a theatre filled with Hollywood stars of note. Nicki Minaj
opened the ceremony with a performance that celebrated her roots and femininity. She was later joined on stage by another Enzer’s World (E.W.) Top Celeb, Taylor “Tay Tay” Swift. Other performances that I enjoyed were by Demi Lovato with Iggy Azalea, The Weekend (who is to die for, OMG), Justin Bieber as well as Tori Kelly (the treasure with an angelic voice). Miley Cyrus closed the ceremony with a LGBTI themed performance. #Unexpected

Everyone was dressed to the nines. Taylor Swift, Nicki Minaj (main show), Demi Lovato (red carpet), Gigi Hadid, Tori Kelly and Selena Gomez had me drooling for hours. Their outfits looked expensive, high-end and fit their bodies perfectly. I mean, who wouldn’t want to wear one of those?
The line-up of friendly presenters (Britney Spears, Rebel Wilson, Nick Jonas amongst others) that handed moon-men to winners including Taylor Swift, Nicki Minaj and Big Sean added opulence to the event by swiftly redirecting our minds from Miley’s dramatic moments, for about a second or two. #LOL

She did well though! She has to be one of the best hostesses in the history of such events because she had us all, right there in the palm of her hand. She was confident, she delivered her lines effortlessly and she rocked whatever she had on. That stage, that night was hers – the queen.
The pre-show wasn’t so bad either. I got to live tweet during the show which featured performances by Walk the Moon and Nick Jonas and was presented by Sway and Kelly Osbourne (who had a jungle of confusion resting on her head).

Has the countdown to the 2016 MTV VMAs begun?



DOWN UNDER: Season 4 of The Voice Australia was off the hook! If you missed it, you missed out BIG TIME! The Singing-Competition Series which airs on Channel 9 in Australia has to be the best produced reality show so far (arguably). Everyone and everything that has anything to do with the show BAGGED IT. I enjoyed every single episode and all of the contestants didn’t disappoint at all. The production team is phenomenal and the coaches (Jessie J, The Madden Brothers, Ricky Martin and Delta Goodrem) made it all relevant, globally. The show MUST BE RENEWED for a fifth season, please.


The finale proceedings concluded the season well. The final performances (coaches’ duets with teammates, etc.) were refreshing and entertaining. My favorites were Jessie J’s duet with winner Ellie Drennan singing Halo (by Beyonce) as well as Joel Madden’s duet with Joe Moore singing Demons (by Imagine Dragons).

How was it?

It was spectacular, golden, and flawless (close). 

Congratulations to winner Ellie Drennan. 16 years old but packaged exceptionally.






Hotter:
The X-Factor UK kicked off its twelfth season (or series) this past Saturday on ITV UK. Simon Cowell and his team did well, I was impressed. I was introduced to all the new faces (Rita Ora, Olly Murs, Nick Grimshaw and Caroline Flack) in an easy way such that by the end of the premiere episode, it seemed like they’d been on the show for ages. Good for us, good for you! 

Olly Murs and Caroline Flack are doing a good job as hosts but Olly seems to be outshining Caroline (already). I really hope to see more of Caroline’s personality shine because she seems like a nice one and a great fit for TV. Sadly, that may be a challenge. She’s sharing the spotlight with this successful singing sensation who everybody in the English speaking world knows by name, tell me how you’d beat that? 

Simon is still Simon, and that is not a bad thing at all – he is so addictive… (I’ll leave the rest to your imagination). Cheryl and her ‘uncommon’ English accent are always a pleasure. #LOL

Celebrity Big Brother UK (dubbed UK vs US) also launched the sixteenth season of the series a few days ago which has already generated numerous headlines, globally. A bunch of ‘crazy’ celebrities from the United Kingdom and the United States have been ‘squashed’ into a pretty house (somewhere) in order to create memorable TV – Good Luck. #LOL

Why isn’t the U.S. version of Big Brother equally exciting? Umm, that’s a call for help.



In South Africa (I know, right?) Idols South Africa kicked off the eleventh season live shows (which air exclusively on M-Net and Mzansi Magic in Southern Africa) in a packed theatre with a cast that has tongues wagging. The series is the second Idols competition to reach ten seasons. 
SIDE NOTE: in the past, the show has welcomed a number of international stars as judges, mentors or performers including Ciara, John Legend, Craig David, Gorgon City and James Blunt. #PrettyCoolForSA

HONEST OPINION: American Idol could be (close to) five times better. Shhhh.



Back in America, Alison Sweeney is leaving The Biggest Loser on NBC! After bidding farewell to Days of Our Lives (airing on NBC) last year, Alison has also decided to quit The Biggest Loser.
SIDE NOTE: Alison Sweeney is an E.W. Top TV Hostess. 
Here’s an idea: Would a reality show that follows Alison ‘everywhere’ be such a bad idea? Think about it.



Also making headlines a few weeks ago was Giuliana Rancic’s sudden exit from the E! News on-air panel. I was shocked, sad but also happy for her at the same time. According to numerous sources, Giuliana rejuvenated E! News by introducing new concepts that came to fruition during her time on the show and impressed everybody interested. She was also an amazing TV hostess who was a joy to watch each weekday. Luckily, she will still appear on other E! shows like Fashion Police and E! Live From The Red Carpet – that’s better than nothing, right? Oh, and the beautiful Maria Menounos replaced her. That can never be bad news.






Throwback:
Hot in Cleveland (aired on TV Land) ended its TV run in June after six seasons of popular humor (mixed with loads of sarcasm) courtesy of Elka Ostrovsky (played by Betty White). The show was incredible! The producers and writers took countless risks, cast indelible actors as guest stars and it all paid off in the end. The main cast was outstanding – Valerie Bertinelli (Melanie), Jane Leeves (Joy), Wendie Malick (Victoria) and Betty White must be taken seriously because they popularized TV Land and proved to critics that age is just a number, any objections?

What made it special?

Whilst hooked on Hot in Cleveland, I totally forgot that hit TV series The Golden Girls ever aired.



Question: How cool was Lip Sync Battle on Spike?

Blow my mind right now dude because it was insane! The hippest host in the history of hipness, Mr. LL Cool J
(assisted by Chrissy Teigen) welcomed ‘ridic’ celebs (Anne Hathaway, Jimmy Fallon, Dwayne Johnson, Taraji P. Henson amongst others) onto the Battle stage to an audience that was ready for World War 3 like a decade ago. Now that was entertainment. That is what our schedules lacked and that should get a second season. If you are too blind to see that, then honey you need to join the aliens in Outer Space, A.S.A.P. #DropsMic
