Went to the Jamie Foxx concert last night. I am sorry to say that it wasn't all that great. I love Jamie's newest CD, Intuition, but it wasn't paced very well. About 2/3 of the show was all the slow songs packed in. The crowd was hyped in the beginning because he was doing faster paced songs. After a while though, it was slow song after slow song. The crowd started sitting down and for most of the show everyone was in their seats. I am not trying to say no one else enjoyed themselves, just that it was more of a slow jam session.

I was also really disappointed because Jamie Foxx kept teasing the crowd with "Slow Jamz" but never really ended up belting it out.

My experience was also marred because the seats we were in were by the side of the stage, so we didn't get the full stage view. A lot of a good concert is the atmosphere, the performed, the crow, and - I have now learned - the seats! I felt like we were pretty close to Jamie and could see him clear enough, but it would almost be better to have sat on the far end, opposite the stage so that we could see the whole picture.

Now keep in mind that my friends and I normally get general admission tickets and would push ourselves to the front of the stage so we really soaked up the entire experience. Sitting in the side seats was not how I like to enjoy my concerts.

I had also hear that his last concert in Seattle was off the hook and that he had integrated a lot of comedy into his show. This wasn't the case last night. There was a part where he was calling some ladies on stage and then did a little comedy routine with them - that part was definitely funny, but it was too short.

One of the other fun parts of the show was when he did every old skool dance under the sun (oh yes, the running man was included!) and then did the c-walk. Oh I do miss the ole c-walk!

Overall, the concert was alright, but I am still a Jamie Foxx fan and would definitely go out and buy his next CD when it comes out in December. And I am definitely going to have to check out his next two movies. He has the one coming out, The Gamer, and then another one with Martin Lawrence. Martin is reviving Shanaynay from his show "Martin" and Jamie Foxx is Wanda from "In Living Color". A must see for anyone in my generation!

Ok, onto the next subject ...

I was HEATED today when I read a blog by the ignorant Adrianne Curry, who was the winner of the first season of America's Next Top Model. She has had her fair share of controversial moments, so I shouldn't be surprised by the idiotic things she says, but she really topped herself this time. She claims that the illigality of drugs is to blame for her brutal rape. I feel for what happened to her, nothing like that should ever happen to anyone. But her argument is that if she could have bought her crack at a pharmacy, she wouldn't have had to go to the streets to buy her drugs and then she wouldn't have been raped. That if the drugs were legal, there wouldn't be any crack dealers on the streets and everyone can just buy their drugs legally.

Right Miss Curry. Sooner or later these "clean pharmacies" will be robbed because the crack addicts that swindled all their money on drugs can't afford the legal drugs anymore.

How about you blame your drug use on poor judgement and your addicition. The majority of the population seems to be just fine without legal crack.

The next thing you know she will a spokeswoman for child pornography and human trafficking. Stupid, stupid woman.
