~Hasa Diga Eebowai!~ The whole group of actors was singing around me, their voices rising as they danced across the stage. One of the women handed me a prop baby to cradle, and I held it awkwardly as the cast circled us. ~When the world is getting you downThere's nobody else to blame!Way oh!Raise your middle finger to the skyAnd curse His rotten name!~ “Wait, what?” I blurted out as the meaning finally clicked. Everyone else kept singing and dancing with full enthusiasm, but I stepped out of…- 1.0 M • Ongoing
- @MusicGeek09: KANYE REALLY JUST DID THAT??? Bro, let the girl have her moment. Poor Taylor Swift. That was probably the most humiliating experience of her life. Troy Armitage’s speech was so good, and I totally agree with him. #GetHelpKanye. @countrygirl_amy: I’ve never seen anything so rude on live TV. Taylor deserved better. I adore her music, and it wasn’t even a big surprise that she won. Sure, Single Ladies was also good, but Beyoncé won the freaking Video of the Year award! @NovaKnight:…

The plan Randal had come up with looked good on the surface. Genius, even. Take two immature teens who were very clearly attracted to each other and use one to get the other to do what you wanted. There was just one thing Randal hadn’t accounted for: my business savviness. Sure, I wasn’t some Bill Gates or Jeff Bezos-level mastermind, but I liked to think I knew enough about the world to see through schemes like that. The little act Randal and I pulled back on the street, him pretending to leave…- 231.0 K • Ongoing
- As soon as the first commercial break started, I stormed toward the audience, fully intending to break Kanye’s nose. The energy in the room crackled with tension, but what I saw there made me second-guess my decision. “You’re a little piece of shit!” a woman was shouting directly in Kanye West’s face. Her voice cut sharply through the noise of the crowd. “Who gave you the right to ruin someone else’s moment? God, if there weren’t thousands of people around, I’d have broken your nose,…

- Taylor looked around nervously. The room was packed in a way that only happened on one of the most stacked nights of the month for American music. Wherever you looked, you could spot a superstar somewhere. Beyoncé chatted near the bar with Jay-Z, Lady Gaga wore a unique outfit that caught every camera flash, and Britney Spears conversed with Madonna against a backdrop of giant screens looping past VMA highlights. It was the kind of room that screamed fame. So it was understandable why Taylor felt a…

- After what felt like months, but was only days, I was finally back in the place I truly called home, free of any major worries pressing down on me. Not the one owned by my father, but the one where I’ve always felt I belonged: water. Thanks to Jordan, most of my financial worries had been washed away. I wasn’t suddenly rich, but not having to worry about rent and utilities went a long way in helping me breathe a little easier. And what better way for a son of Poseidon to unwind than to dive in…

- As I walked out of the audition room, I noticed that everyone else had left, leaving just the sexy redhead receptionist behind, the same one who was currently avoiding looking at me. “Hey, Paige!” I greeted her, stopping in front of her desk. When she didn’t even look up, I added, “Still mad at me, huh? Well, I just wanted to tell you that I lost the role, so that I won’t be coming here anymore.” That did the trick of shocking her enough that she forgot she was mad at me. “What do…

- Nikki nervously wrung her wrists, her stomach twisting as she tried to calm herself. She still couldn’t believe she had landed the biggest role of her career, and that she’d be performing beside the biggest superstar in the world. Troy Armitage won awards left, right, and center wherever he went, and he was the only guaranteed box office success in today’s era. Then he was a billionaire, one of the most handsome guys out there, and a record-breaking musician as well. Sometimes, it was hard to…

- “You are very pretty, Julie,” I said honestly to the girl sitting beside me. Julie blushed visibly before ducking her head. “Oh, come on. Don’t use one of your lines on me.” “I’m not,” I insisted. “If I were using a line, I would say something like, ‘Are you sure you’re not a fallen angel? Because you have landed right into my heart.’” Julie laughed beautifully, and all her nervousness from before vanished instantly. “That wasn’t half bad,” she complimented. “I…

- ~All those days chasing down a daydream All those years living in a blur All that time, never truly seeing Things the way they were~ I looked directly into the eyes of the most beautiful girl I had ever seen and continued singing, pouring my heart, soul, and every part of myself into the notes. ~Now she's here, shining in the starlight Now she's here, suddenly I know If she's here, it's crystal clear I'm where I'm meant to go~ When I reached the next verse, I gently took…
