    I’m incredibly sad about Lee Thompson Young. I used to watch Jett Jackson religiously when I was 10-14ish. RIP

    • Erinn says:

      Same. I loved that show. And I caught him on Rizolli a few times too. He was so likable.

    • CG says:

      I couldn’t believe the news when I saw it yesterday. I only knew him from Rizzoli but I really liked his character and was happy they were expanding it after he’d been relegated to the background the first couple seasons. I’m so sad.

  2. Erinn says:

    Proud Maritimer right here! Halifax (I’m Nova Scotian) was petitioning against Chris playing, and a whole lot of sponsors dropped out!

  3. diva says:

    Lee Thompson Young passing is breaking my heart. I adored him when he was on the Disney Channel and love him on Rizzoli and Isles. I send prayers to his family and friends. On a brighter note I would LOVE to see Nsync reunite! I really don’t want to watch the VMA’s but I want to see if they even stand on stage together.

    Free at last!

    The exam went as I expected, except for the fact that on the sheet of directions given to us in June, it said we could use notes on the exam, and when I showed up with them, the teacher supervising said we weren’t allowed notes. As usual.

    I’m just glad to be done….

    • Erinn says:

      Yay for being done!
      I always was such a ball of stress at exam times. Even for things I’m incredibly prepared for.

  8. Andrea says:

    I would of never thought that Justin Timberlake’s ego would be able to reuntie with the rest of nsync…wonder what made him?

    • Happy21 says:

      Like Bey at the Superbowl, I’m sure it’s a one time thing and I’m sure they’ll be there to help him sing HIS song mostly…

      • Kim1 says:

        Bey is still friends with DC,Lance and Joey say they havent spoken to JT in years.This will be probably be more,ackward than DC reunion

  9. Lark says:

    The Lee Thompson Young death is so sad. He was only 29. Made me actually tear up for a bit. RIP Elmore Leonard, too. One of the greatest American novelists ever.

    • Andrew says:

      I actually haven’t read any of his books. Anybody have a good suggestion as to where to start? I love new books!

      • TheOneAndOnlyOnly says:

        Try Stick read it a half a dozen times very good; RIP Mr. Leonard. From the old school that they don’t make anymore.

      • Andrew says:

        I’ll have to find it at the library tomorrow. Thanks!

    Re Britney Spears + bra: HALLELUJAH.
    Elmore Leonard: Too bad. A good writer. RIP.
    Lee Thompson Young: I have no idea who he is, but very sad nonetheless. RIP.

  12. Jennifer12 says:

    Elmore Leonard was one of the best writers on the planet. And I wish Leo Young hadn’t chosen what he did, but RIP to both men.

  13. Yelly says:

    Is it sad that I had to find this out on Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s twitter? So random.
