Connie Span??

I just happened to go and check out the Betty boards and found out that Con was on C-Span. He was at the White House Dinner . Anyway, it was just getting ready to come on so I flipped on over to C-Span. Sure enough , some girls started screaming and you hear them yelling "Constantine"! LOL Con was all dressed in black and he walked over to the girls and signed a few autographs and then walked over and started talking to some reporter from Extra. The only thing I heard him say was "It was an awesome experience". Guess she was asking him about AI.
I have really tried to be nice and to be supportive to the fans of Bo Bice BUT it seems that a majority of them only offer false sympathy. They say that they can't believe Con went home and in the same breath tell me how I should vote for Bo. Not gonna happen. I don't want to be solicited to vote for another idol . I'm not voting any more. As far as I 'm concerned the AI finale came early this season. The end of Season 4 was the last second that they showed Constantine. The end. Over. Done with. The show has nothing else left to offer. Everything they had to keep me hooked walked off of that stage with Constantine.
I read an article where Bo Bice's father claims that Bo was framed with the Cocaine and pot. Supposedly Bo took the rap for an aunt who was already in trouble with the law over drugs. Ok...where have I heard this excuse before?? Hmmm...just about every kind of criminal there is...murderers, rapists, thieves, etc. Then it went on to say that Bo was arrested again two year later for public drunkeness and marajuana. Who was Bo protecting this time, Papa Bice?? I was trying to stick up for Bo but if the Bice's can' t admit that Bo made a mistake and stand up like a man and take the repercusions. instead of making lame excuses then I just can't do that anymore. That sounds like the biggest and most desparate excuse I have ever heard.

Saddest picture I ever saw.

The picture that broke my heart.

I was in shock when I heard Ryan say that Con was going home but I was ok. Then, when they did the recaps of Connie and showed him putting on that lovable leather jacket and walking away, you could hear my heart shatter like a fragile piece of glass. That's when the tears came. Even now I get tears in my eyes looking at it. I guess it's sort of bitter sweet. Constantine leaving AI but also cutting the ties that bind and setting him free to rock and roll, act, write, or whatever else he wants to do !!! They gave him his freedom back!! Well, at least in a few more months. It's funny how things happen. I never meant to get so attatched to you , Con. I tuned in to AI just to see who they had this season. Last season was nothing but a big snorefest. Then, there you were. From that moment on, I didn't miss a show. Before I knew it, you snatched me up and were the air that I breathe! LOL You did the same to so many people. I hope you know how much your fans will miss seeing you on AI. On the other hand, we are all counting down to May 10th to grab a copy of PFTSOB!!! The whole thing really is bitter sweet.
The message boards everywhere are in complete shambles. People demanding a recount, petitions to get you back on AI, blaming your fans for Bo's past mistakes, claims that the show is rigged, just a total mess. I have to admit that I wouldn't be a bit surprised to learn that AI really is just a big scam. Probably the biggest scam ever pulled on unsuspecting viewers. If that's the deal, I hope someone somewhere can prove it. Not this hesaid/shesaid BS. Solid proof that AI is nothing more than a big scam to suck the souls right out of it's viewing audience. That' s exactly what it does. :::sigh::::
On a brighter note, I can't wait to see you on Ellen and on Regis and Kelly on Monday!! I'm so glad I'm off that day!! I could always Tivo it but I'd rather watch it first hand. I think you are on some other shows too so I'll have to go back to the Betty boards to get the schedule and keep checking in. I don't want to miss a minute of my honey!!
I think I'm going to step outside and get some air. I love to look at the night sky. I can't wait until summer is here! The sky is always beautiful on a summer night. On a hot summer night, would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?? I feel like I already did.

The Fall Out...

I said I love you and I swear I still do!

Here we go, folks. It has been disclosed that Bo Bice was arrested for possession of cocaine, marajuana, and public intoxication a few years ago. He was at a strip joint when he was busted with the coke. Guess who's fault it is that this news got out? YEP!! Bo fans are blaming Connie's fans for it. Get real, people!! Constantine fans did not hog tie Bo Bice to a whipping post and force him to do cocaine, get drunk and smoke pot at a stinkin' strip club!! It's just as much news to them as it is to Bo's fans. If you want to be angry at someone for tarnishing your idol's image, get angry at Bo for doing it in the first place!! Of course, Bo has had treatment and changed while they are still hanging Scott Savol out to dry over his arrest record. Talk about double standards!! How in the hell do you know that Scott didn't get treatment and has changed?? Don't get me wrong. I don't like Scott any more than I used to which btw..is NOT AT ALL!! It just pisses me off that Connie's fans have to get slammed over it. Guess Con's fans should start an anti drug campaigne and call it "Just Say No To Bo"!! LMAO!! Anywho....
I'm looking forward to seeing Con on Leno here shortly! I can't wait! I hope he has a big shit eating grin on his face!! The Pray For The Soul of Betty album is up to #2 on Amazon! YES!!! The perfect thing after a night like last night! Hopefully, Betty will be at number 1 by morning! LOL I was trying to find info on when the Idol tour might be passing through my way. Didn't find the info I was looking for yet. I just want to go for Con!! He's the only one worth seeing!!
I'm going to be up past my bedtime again tonight. No wonder I have such horrible headaches! Too much to do and not enough sleep. I'm afraid to blink because my eyes might not open again!
Damn..now I lost my train of thought because while typing this I got interupted by more Im's of people checking on me. I hope this is the last time I have to say this...I'm FINE!! FINE I TELL YA!! Con isn't going anywhere except on to bigger and better things!!! It's al for the best. Connie was a star without AI, a star while on AI, and he will be an even bigger star now that all of that is pretty much over with!! I'm looking forward to seeing PFTSOB some day soon and we'll really "Rock this thing"LOL
Ok...Leno is coming on in a few so I'll cut my ramblings off and get ready to see my honey! Sweet dreams, everyone!

Not the end, but a new beginning!!

You have no idea how many people Im'd me and actually called me tonight to see if I was ok!! LOL You would think that a family member died or something! I'm very grateful that I have friends who care and who were concerned about me when Constantine was told he was leaving. I'm really ok!!! I promise!! Con will be ok too! In fact, he'll be better than Ok! He'll be FANTASTIC!! He got exposer from AI, Betty got signed and is releasing an album in a couple of weeks, Con will do the AI tour thing and then hopefully, he will have his freedom to do whatever the hell he wants!! They are so full of crap anyway. There's no way that Con should have went home tonight but since he did I am very tempted to join forces with www.votefortheworse.com. I should give all of my votes to Scotty the Potty and help him win this thing!!! LMAO!! I'd call it "Connie's Revenge"!! I'm seriously thinking about it. If Idol wants to play dirty then by golly, let's play dirty!!! Con shouldn't have gotten sent home but it will all work out for the best. We haven't heard or seen the last of Constantine Maroulis!! He's going to go far without Idol!!!
I am up WAAAY past my bedtime tonight. Don't know if I'll get much sleep anyway, but I've got to try. I have a LOT of things to say so I'll be back tomorrow. You've been warned!!

How you remind me!

This is how you remind me what a gorgeous man you are!!!

Connie, do you have any idea how many people are hopelessly and completely in love with you?? You make the darkest of days seem bright with that boyish charm!! I'd pay a million bucks if I had it to see you smile!! You have made American Idol fun again! It was a dull and boring show during season 3. Very little talent. Nobody to look forward to seeing. Then came season 4. BAM!!!! There's this sexy guy with the longest legs I've ever seen with big chocolate eyes and a shit eating grin that no woman could resist! Then, you opened your mouth to sing! Jaws dropped, heads turned, even the birds stopped singing to listen to that awesome voice!! When that guy hit the stage, even the dead woke up to watch such amazing performances! Someone who didn't just stand there and sing a ho hum song! Someone who changed it up every week and who gave his all every single performance! That is YOU, Constantine! YOU are the guy that makes American Idol worth watching! YOU are the guy that millions of people look forward to seeing each week! YOU are the guy who will try anything and put your whole heart and soul into it! As your brother said, you have no fear!!! You are strong, deteremined, and confident! Your fans adore you and believe in you!!! YOU are the one we vote our arses off for every Tuesday night and stay up past our bed times talking about. You are the one who wipes away all of the worries of the day and give us something to remind us that tomorrow will be a better day! You are the one we all wait for each week to hit the stage and rock our socks off! Thanks for all that you do , Con. We love it and want more and more and more!!! With or without Idol, you are a star and there's nothing anyone can do to stop that!!! Everything will be cool. Believe it!!

What went wrong??

Connie, what the hell happened? You know I love ya to death but tonight just was not a good night for ya. I don't know if you're getting nervous or what. I don't think you'll be going home but you just might end up in the bottom three this week. Randy made me mad tonight with is sucky little comment to Bo about him being a "true" rocker!! Randy wouldn't know true rock if a boulder rolled off the top of a mountain and hit him upside the head!! The man has a three sentence vocabulary.."Yo Dawg" "I wasn't feelin' it" and "That was a little pitchy"!! Tonight he tried to add a new sentence to his vocab but it wasn't a sentence he came up with. It was a sentence he swiped from Simon of all people!! The one about a bar band! Get over yourself , Randy. You are not that important!! LMAO!! And Paula, your days are numbered too. Just wait until ABC tells what they know! LOL Probably why you weren't too nice to my Con man tonight. He must have turned you down because my man has better taste!! Simon, you were just being you snide self so I can't rag on you this time. We expect you to be an evil butthead. Needless to say I voted my arse off for the whole two hours tonight. I hope everyone else did the same.
Connie, it's way too late in the game to start making costly mistakes. Sit down, regroup, and blow us away next week!!
I sure hope someone got some pics from tonight because there were a lot of good ones that I'd like to have!
It was awesome to see your family, Con!! They're great and very proud of you!! So are your fans!
Now it's bed time for me because I have to work tomorrow. For once, I'm not up too late. I'll be saying some prayers and hoping for the best!! Love ya, Connie! Smoochies and huggles!!

Take a bite outta that radish...errrrr...I mean temper!

Word in cyber space is Christina Radish is turning into a raw radish. She apparently is getting a little peeved over people snagging her pics and posting them all over the place. She is a professional photographer. She is threatening that each offense is punishable with a $64,000 fine. Lighten up, lady! Most of the pics are being snagged by younger kids. Well...maybe not. For all I know, I've snagged a few myself. All I can say is good luck getting $64,000 outta me , honey! You'd be lucky to get 64 cents!! LOL I truly do understand where she is coming from but if she doesn' t want her work stolen, then she is going to have to find another way of showing it off other than the internet. I'm sure she has just opened the door for more people to snag her pictures just to piss her off. I don't know. Maybe if it was my hard work getting snagged, I might be pissed myself but then again, I realize that people are going to take what they want in the real world as well as cyber space. Guess I'm not very business oriented because I don't get the need to pitch a big fit over it. This is jmo .

Don't forget!!!

Look for your copy of "Pray For The Soul Of Betty" May 10th!!

Arrrrrrrgh!! I wish it was Tuesday!!

Real Men wear Eyeliner!!

I can't wait until Tuesday night! What the hell am I gonna do when Idol is over this season?? I'll miss my Con man!! I'm sure he will be all over the place in the news!! He's gonna win this gig anywho!! LOL
It's down right chilly here today. That sucks!! Got the grass cut and now I need to go to the store and get something that resembles food. Think I'll pick up the fixin's for a tasty Greek Salad!!! LOL Rumor has it that this weeks AI theme will be 2000 to the present. Could they make it any easier?? What the hell happened to the specific themes that they used to have??? Oh...some of the contestants can't sing anything except one genre so they have to make it easy for them. LOL!! No worries because Constantine can sing just about anything or at least give it a damn good try. That's just one of the many things I like about him.
I've had a helluva headache all day. Guess I should have remembered to take my meds. Everytime I forget, I get a headache to remind me. ARRRRGH!! Well, enough of this BS. I'm going to the store to get some food!!! Think I'll make the family a nice big pot of maschacholi ..ok...I can't spell the crap but I can damn well cook it!! LOL

Betty Album to be Released!

Look for the release of PFTSOB on May 10th!

Woo Hooo! Betty and Connie fans, this is great news!! Here's the article!! ROCK ON, Betty and Connie!!!

KOCH Records to Release Rock Album Featuring American Idol Finalist Constantine Maroulis
Self-Titled Debut "Pray For the Soul of Betty" to Be Released on May 10th

NEW YORK, NY -- (MARKET WIRE) -- 04/21/2005 -- Baby Julius/KOCH Records announces the release of "Pray For the Soul of Betty" on May 10th. The New York-based rock band features American Idol favorite Constantine Maroulis on vocals, Joao Joya on guitar, Taylor, C.R. on bass and Hamboussi on drums. Recorded in 2003 and 2004, the album was completed before Constantine decided to try out for the popular competition.
The band -- which draws influences from Led Zeppelin, Soundgarden and Queens of the Stone Age, sound distinctively like a NYC city band should sound like: intense, raw and powerful. Betty have performed across the nation, everywhere from CBGB's to The Viper Room, and have garnered praise and a legion of fans.
The Boston Globe wrote, "Pray For the Soul of Betty... personifies the kind of young and tattooed look that just means trouble," while The Hartford Courant reviewed a live show, "The group's set... was a mix of visceral indie-rock songs and souped-up tunes with the feel of old-school Black Sabbath."
About signing with KOCH, bassist Taylor, C.R. says, "Being with a company as dynamic and independent as KOCH is ideal for Pray for the Soul of Betty -- we've always carved our own path, just like KOCH has."
General Manager and Executive Vice President of KOCH Records Alan Grunblatt states, "Pray For the Soul of Betty is one of the best rock bands I've heard in years. Considering how popular Constantine Maroulis is, we should go gold for sure!

I'm Breathing Easier!!

I'm still standin'!!

Whew!! Con, I am so glad you weren't in the bottom three tonight! I was a little worried that you would be. I can't believe that Thug Bones Without Harmony is still in the game. That is just UNBELIEVABLE!!! They sent home Anwar and left Scotty the Potty in the top 6. Just makes me wanna puke.
Con, next week you've got to pull another Bo Rhap except with another song!! LOL It's getting too close to the finals !! You've got to be better than ever from here on out!!! I know you can do it!! That was so sweet of you to wear the rose that the girls sent you!! Just melted my heart!! They are thrilled to death! You are such a sweetheart!! Thank you !!!
Now for once, I'm going to try and get to bed at the right freakin' time for a work night!! LOL

Nights on Broadway

Connie, you should have told Randy to kiss your gorgeous behind!!!
So the theme wasn't exactly disco tonight. It was dance songs from the 70's. Con, you did good but it wasn't your best. That's ok though. Your fans love ya and we voted like crazy for you tonight. Randy was a sleezeball tonight. I didn't care for his comments or for Simon's and Paula just mumbled the same crap she says every week to everybody. I hate to sound jealous or like there's some big conspiracy going on but how the hell did Bo Bice end up singing Vehicle?? That song isn't what I call a dance song. I know others might disagree but to me that was a rock song. It's almost as if since Bo was in the bottom three that they wanted to make sure he did well this week and since he can only sing one type of song, they had to find a way to accomidate him. Bo Bice might be a great guy and all but he has no versitility.
Con, you have sang quite a few different styles of songs and have done great! I don't get what other people are seeing in Bo Bice besides he has nice hair?? He's boring imo. He does the same thing right down to his stage antics. You always do something unique and different. If I didn't know better, I'd swear that this was some kind of set up to get Bo back in the top after his flub up last week. Then there was Scotty with his little personality change. What was up with that?? If he thought that redeemed him from his idiotic attitude he had last week, he's sadly mistaken. He's been thugin' it all along and now all of a sudden he's Mr. Smiles and Sunshine?? Nope. Not buying it. That just made him look even more deranged in my opinion. Anyway, back to the real man here...Constantine. I thought your hair looked good but I wish they would keep their paws off of it. Your hair was great just the way it was. The eyeliner was sexy but I think I prefer you without or at least with less but what the hell do I know. Just wanted to let ya know that I love ya, your fans love ya and we truly voted like hell for you tonight . Will that be enough?? I don't know but we did all we could. Now I need to take my butt to bed because once again, I'm up too late for a work night. Sweet dreams, Connie! See you in mine!

DISCO???? ARRRRRRGH!!!

Tonight's AI theme is DISCO???? WTH!! LOL Connie, I couldn't even begin to guess what you might pick to do but whatever it is, I'm sure it will be awesome!!

Even the cat thought Constantine rocked Bohemian Rhapsody!! LOL Yes! I'm still talking about it!! I loved it!! Can't watch it enough!!
Went and saw "Amytiville Horror" today. That was one of the better scary movies that I've seen recently. I kind of liked it. Today was awesome! Perfect weather! Summer is almost here at last! I hate winter. It's so long and depressing . I love the warmth and the sunshine!! I need to move to Florida or something. Not Cali because I already lived there and hated it. I've been to Florida several times and really loved it there.
Anyway, not much to say. Just wanted to post that pic of the cat imitating Constantine! LOL

Go get yourself some cheap sunglasses!!

My future's so bright, I gotta wear shades!!

AHH!! I love this pic!! Too damn funny! Connie, I think pink is your color!! LOL Anywho...I ran across this article and thought I would post it because of the last paragraph!! Pretty awesome!!!

Nadia Turner the Next Idol to Go 15-Apr-2005Written by: Jackie Backman Flashback to the 70s not enough to keep the eccentric Turner in the Idol competition. American Idol lost one of its strongest performers Wednesday, when 26-year-old Nadia Turner was sent home. Although the blossoming diva had been a fan favorite thanks to her stellar voice and killer legs, it was her song choice for this weeks show that proved to be a fatal mistake. Contestants performed songs from the year they were born, and Turners rendition of the 1977 hit "When I Dream" garnered a negative reaction from the entire panel, Simon Cowell calling it an "appalling" song choice. Turner shared the bottom three with the loveable Scott Savol, and much to the surprise of everyone, rocker Bo Bice whose performance of "Free Bird" left judge Paula Abdul convinced he would make it to the finals. The performance of the night went to rocker Constantine Maroulis, whose rendition of the 1975 Queen classic "Bohemian Rhapsody" brought the crowd to their feat with thunderous applause. Cowell called the performance "astonishing."

Did you dig it???

So you think you can stone me and spit in my eye! Did I dig it??? HELL, YEAH!!! LOL Constantine is such a great performer!!! He puts his heart and soul into every performance!! I look forward to seeing what he does next ! AI hasn't been this much fun since Ruben and Clay!! I so hope that the Con man wins this competition!!! No one else has that kind of stage presence imo. He just takes control of his audience and the rest is history!!!! My two all time favorite performances from any AI season are from season 2 and 4. Clay Aiken's performance of "Bridge Over Troubled Water" and Constantine's performance of "Bohemian Rhapsody"!! I have watched the BR performance at least 300 times by now!!! I just can't get it out of my head!! I promise that someday soon, I'll write something about my life instead of AI and Constantine but for now, I'm perfectly happy living in a fantasy world!! Isn't that what life is made of??? heh heh
Damn! It's past my bed time once again!! I have to get up for work which sucks !! I'd much rather stay up all night and watch Constantine!! : )

Ai Results Shocker

My fine, sleek Greek!!

I just can't believe the bottom three this week. It doesn't even make sense. Bo Bice should not have been in the bottom three and Nadia should have stayed while Scott went home. I just don't get it. I guess it could have been worse....such as Con in the bottom three. Thank God that didn't happen. I was sorry to see Nadia go. I liked her and thought she did a great job. Bo had no business in the bottom three. Scott has been very inconsistant and should have went home. This whole night was unbelievable.

Bohemian Rhapsody!!

The Rocker Returns!!! Hell, YES!!! Constantine, you did it again! You picked the perfect song and you ROCKED IT!!!! Your version of Bohemian Rhapsody had Freddie Mercury smiling from ear to ear!! You did him proud, Connie!!! Everyone is saying what a great job you did tonight!! I am so happy!!! You couldn't have done that song any better!!! I can't wait to get some screen caps from that performance! I sure hope someone has one of you sticking your tongue out! LOL That cracked me up!!! You were just awesome!! I have no idea how I will ever get to sleep with that performance in my head!!! I'm sure Freddie would say "Carry on...Carry on!!

In the mood for some skin!!

I'd love to do a raspberry on Con's tummy!! LOL Tomorrow , I will get to see my Con man and hear him sing ! I love to watch those sexy moves and looks! The week just drags on and on and it seems like Tuesdays aren't never going to come but then they finally do!! Connie, you've been doing such a great job these last couple of weeks! You have to keep it up! If you do, your chances of winning this gig get better and better!!
I found a little tidbit about you today that I didn't know. You went by the name of "Dean Maroulis" in school. Constantine is so much better!! Glad you decided to start using it instead. The name Constantine is so much sexier! If the shoe fits........ and believe me , it DOES!! : ) You've gained quite a bit of new fans and the respect of some nay sayers. That's always a good thing!! You just keep on getting better and better!
I wasted this whole day. I didn't do shit. I had lots of things that I should have been doing but put them off so I'll have to do them tomorrow.
Now I want to do a little bitching which is something that I'm trying to cut down on. Have you ever sat on the computer for a long period of time without really doing anything of importance or interest and nobody bothers you and then the minute you start trying to do something constructive you get bombarded with IM's from everyone you know and people you don't know!! That is so freakin' annoying!!! It really pisses me off. One person in particular seems to do that to me a hell of a lot! I'm going to have to start trying to remember to block their ass out when I'm doing something because it annoys the shit outta me. It really puts me in a bad mood. I hate that. I'm trying to make an effort to be a happier person but other people make it so damn hard!! LOL I should have been placed on a planet without another living soul around. Well, except for Constantine! Now that would be heaven!!!

Miss ya!!

Too Damn Sexy!!
::::Sigh:::: Connie, you are just too damn sexy for your own good. Hell, you're too damn sexy for my own good too! LOL I can't wait until I see you again this Tuesday! The only good thing about Mondays is that it is followed by Tuesday!! Wonder what the theme is this week?? Doesn't matter because you will be sexier than ever!!!
The weather is just perfect here today! 82 and no humidity! Plenty of sunshine! Just the way I like it. Guess I'll go and get out and enjoy it for awhile longer!! See ya soon, Con!

Connie is a Diva

Check out the Diva! LOL I love the look on his face and that little

head shake at the end! Con, you have no idea how adorable you are.

Wait!! Maybe you do!! LMAO

Safe again!!

A picture paints a thousand words and "Sexy" is just one of them!

Way to go , Con!! You are good to go for another week. How are you ever going to top "My Funny Valentine"?? It was just awesome!! Looking forward to seeing what you bring next week!!

My Funny Valentine

 Can't wait for some pics of Con singing "My Funny Valentine"!! Wooo!!! It was the best, Con!! You looked fantastic and sounded ten times as good as you looked. That puts you somewhere out there farther than any man has dared to go! LOL How sexy can one man be?? Damn! You're killing me!! LOL You were the best this week!! Glad to see that people are finaly getting it. You have talent, versatility, and are one of the sexiest men alive!! : )

 On another note...thanks for all the prayers I've recieved this week for someone who is very near and dear to my heart. Their surgery went without a hitch and turned out even better than expected. All that's left to do now  is to heal. Thanks so much to all of you who helped us get through this hard time. It's appreciated more than you will ever know and I have some of the greatest people in the world for my friends! Love you all and smoocheroulis!! LOL

Love the Con Man!

I thought this was cute. I snagged it from ConstantineRocks. Thanks, sweetie!! Anywho..I'm short on time this  morning. I have to go to my so called job. Oh, Joy!!
