Bobbi Kristina’s Body Language Shows Neediness In PDA With Nick Gordon

Thursday, March 15th, 2012

News has broken that Bobbi Kristina, Whitney’s  biological daughter has hooked up with her “adopted” brother ,whom Whitney raised as a child. Apparently now they are engaged to be married. This is a very very bad idea in my view on a number of levels. For one, Bobbi is still in her mourning phase and cannot possibly make rational life decisions at this point on her life.

It is understandable that she is lonely and confused and scared  and very needy at this juncture in her life. She is so needy that she has sought comfort in the arms of her “brudder” as she calls him- Nick Gordon. Apparently, they share a bed together as she revealed on twitter.

Video was released on TMZ which shows the two of them together. What struck me body language wise, was just how physically needy she appeared to be in making the first gestures for Nick’s affection.

Her we see how Bobbi reaches out and  grabs Nick  hand to hold.

Next we see how she pulls his hand  in order to  place it  in back of her

as she succeeds in  pulling his arm and hand all the way back so he essentially rests it on her lower back on her buttock.

She then pulls him closer to her body and reaches up to kiss him on the lips for all to see,  as they enter a store.

As they leave the store, she grabs a hold of his arm. It is not Nick that is reaching out to Bobbi Kristina,  but Bobbi reaching out to him.

These little body language nuances mean a lot when you look at her emotional state. She is literally reaching out to the closest person to her because she is so needy. This is very understandable in light of the tragic circumstances she has been under.

Her family is allegedly upset about this relationship because it has been reported that they believe he is  a bad influence on her.Others feel that their engagement is Nick’s insurance policy that he will get some money. If Nick was “adopted” by Whitney, it strikes  me as a bit odd that she would not have left some money for him in her will.

Suddenly Nick released a statement to ABCNews.com that he is not dating Bobbi Kristina as he says ”

“We’re just close — just going through her mom’s passing and grieving together,” he said.

But he has given double messages on twitter as he recently tweeted :

“Yeah, we got a little closer and what!!!”

That was followed by ”

All the haters that don’t know us or the real story can’t unfollow me. I don’t give a f**k.” “I’ve proved my loyalty to her and the Houston family. I don’t owe any of you anything. Ha, I don’t even know y’all haters.”

“Some ppl [people] have no lives so they gotta be in ours,” he added as he made a point to say that he and Bobbi Kristina

are not related by blood as he tweeted

“For the stupid ppl out there, she gave birth to 1 child. And she trusted me with EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

He added, “She called me her “God Son.” I swear some ppl in this world act like they don’t have a brain …”

Perhaps all the “haters”got to Nick,  as he may have called off their engagement or their public romance by announcing that he is not dating Bobbi Kristina. There is no doubt that he  had had second thoughts on the matter. Perhaps that is why he was not seen making the first moves in their (PDA) public displays of affection seen in the above photos.

THE  REVEALING OPRAH INTERVIEW

In looking back at the Oprah interview with Bobbi Kristina you could clearly see this young lady is so fragile and so much in denial. She is confused and scared and alone. She had no business doing that interview at this time in her life. It was ALL about Oprah and Oprah’s ratings for her network. It was NOT about Bobbi Kristina.If it has been about Bobbi Kristina she would not have been there for the interview. I felt that it was exploitative and very disturbing to watch.

When Bobbi Kristina enthusiastically told Oprah she was still had a voice and was going to  sing and act and dance Oprah was not supportive , and rightfully so. Short of telling Bobbi Kristina that  she was delusional, she said to her  that she was putting a lot of pressure on herself.

This reality check is not what Bobbi Kristina wanted or needed to hear during this extremely emotionally volatile time in her life.

As I said on ET,  Bobbi Kristina stood during the whole interview and fidgeted. It was clear that she did NOT want to be there.

CONCERN FOR BOBBI KRISTINA

I am very concerned about this young lady. She has no one to give her the right guidance. She is 19 and a very young 19 at that. She was sheltered and coddled and was never independent. She never had to go out and get a job and fend for herself.

Nick is only 22 and  since he was raised by Whitney, it is like the blind leading the blind(no offense to anyone who is blind). Bobbi Kristina is blinded by her pain and neediness and has reached out to someone who is just as needy and in pain for a number of reasons from having  biological father in prison to not being mentioned in Whitney’s will.

Even though Bobbi Kristina was “groomed” by Whitney to become a singer she is NOT Whitney.  Not to be mean, she does not have Whitney’s looks or extraordinary talent or charisma. She thinks she is Whitney as indicated in the Oprah interview when she revealed she “Still had a voice.” Someone needs to set this poor child straight or she will be setting herself up for more disappointment.

Hollywood is one of the cruelest places on earth and is NOT for the emotionally fragile. First, there  is a lot of  pressure to look a certain way. Not to be mean,  but Bobbi Kristina was not blessed with Whitney’s genetics, looks wise. She is not attractive enough and makeup won’t do the trick. She needs a makeover which includes a nose job and dental work to balance out her features and perhaps a breast enhancement. Like it or not, the reality is that this is Hollywood and there are certain requirements one has to have in the public eye if they are to make it as an entertainer. It is way too competitive and you have to look your best.

Next  you have to have the talent to carry off your desires to be a singer, actress or dancer.  At 19 Bobbi Kristina is old in terms of starting out in the business. She has not performed publicly yet . She has not performed in any little clubs to develop her chops. She has not enrolled in acting classes or done any local theatre to get her chops.

Following her mother around  may have given her a lot of insight in terms of what is required of a star but it will never make her a star.

Her cover of Adele’s song on youtube was sweet for an amateur,  but she needs a lot of work with breath control and phrasing and pitch levels.

Being a dancer is another huge undertaking where dance routines can be grueling. It requires a lot of  daily practice and dedication and athletic stamina. Dancing starts at an early age with lessons and classes  on a regular basis.

The bottom line is that unless someone takes her under her wing like a major manager who  has her best interests at heart and instills in her the discipline it takes to accomplish her goals, she is setting herself up for another major disappointment. Someone needs to watch over her that all her investments are being handled well and that she is not going to be ripped off.

Someone needs to get this young lady to a professional therapist to help her and guide her. She needs t occupy her time getting a formal education and go to college where she should major in  business so she can learn  how to handle her finances.  If she is determined to sing and dance and perform, she needs to be in dance class, have voice coaching, and  take  acting classes  along with her studies.

She needs to focus on her healing and on developing herself so she can be the best she can be. Just being Whitney Houston’s daughter will not cut it  in terms of her success and future. She needs to prove herself on her own.

Lindsay Lohan’s New Body Language and Image Desperately Needs Voice Work As Well

Saturday, March 3rd, 2012

Lindsay Lohan recently  looked  a lot more mature than the fresh faced girl next door look we have come to know as she appeared on all the NBC talk shows  like Today and Jimmy Fallon in order to promote her SNL gig to give her career a  well needed boost.

Looking more and more like her stage mom Dina, she looked  attractive with her  desperately needed newly veneered teeth. She also got rid of the lip trout that previously  looked out of proportion to her facial features.

Despite her new classical facial appearance and  curvaceous figure the one thing she still really needs to work on is her voice. As someone who did voice and speech and body language coaching with A list actors for various movie roles  over the years, I know what I am talking about here.

VOICE THERAPY NOW!

She sounded hoarse, gravely and harsh. I think that as she ventures into acting and gets her life and acting career back on track it would be in her best interest to also get some desperately needed vocal therapy.

Her voice sounds  so bad because of the vocal abuse from what often happens when one abuses drugs and  or alcohol . This is what people sound like who abuse themselves for a long period of time. Vocal muscles  and tissues get taxed and there can be damage to them. The wasy she sounds will clearly limit her roles because she has a harsh limited note range. As a performer you need a wide range.

COMEBACK AT 25

Personally, I was happy to hear that she is getting her act together and was impressed with her persistence, She contacted Lauren Michaels and literally begged him to host the show until he said yes. Hopefully this will work for her. Hopefully this is her comeback but only time will tell. She may rock it or people may have had enough of her antics and lose interest in her  and consider it too little too late.

She is making a  comeback at  age 25 and even laughed at how ridiculous it sounds on her interviews. But the reality is that  for a woman in Hollywood 25 is  considered old. She wasted the best years of her life from 18 to 22. That is when actresses are in their prime in Hollywood. If they are any good and the public accepts them, they  continue to work like a Jessica Lange and a Meryl Streep.

We don’t know how Lindsay will do as an actress as it remains to be seen. She has to get her chops back .  She hasn’t worked in a while. He behavior has affected her ability to be insured on a set  no  doubt. When she performed in the  recent past she was reported to be wasted so many times. She was  always late  and upset filming.

SECOND CHANCES

Early on, she had natural talent as a cute redheaded innocent tween and teen but how will she fare as a serious actress? Will her reputation cloud her performance? Will people say “why bother?”

Robert Downey Jr. was a complete mess and also did jail time  due to his drug and alcohol issues . But he turned himself around t be one of the most respected actors in Hollywood. Hopefully Lindsay will do the same, but it is harder for a woman, That is the reality like it or not.

Men in Hollywood don’t happen until they are 40 something. They age into their roles whereas a woman ages out of her roles unless she is a character actress.

I do wish Lindsay the best. I  love to see people get back on track like Britney Sears. I was so worried about her four years ago that I even wrote a blog reaching out to her as did so many others. Since then she has her life in gear and a wonderful man her in life. Her  terrific father stepped in and helped her tremendously in every way. Now she has a wonderful supportive man in her life and is engaged to him.

LINDSAY’S PARENTS MAY BE THE ROOT OF  HER PROBLEMS

Unfortunately this is not the case with Lindsay’s father or mother Dina Lohan. Lindsay has an enabling lying mother (yes I said lying as she lied on TV about her daughters problems) who spun her daughters bad behavior and was seen partying with her daughter during her daughters out of control times.  She is desperate for attention as she had  appeared over the airwaves to talk about her daughter to get some face time. She saw herself as becoming the next Oprah. According to reports

Her father  Michael Lohan in my view is a complete Toxic mess with his own issues too massive to go into. From his anger issues to his fights with women and betrayal of friends (Jon Goselin) to shooting off his mouth about his  daughter who clearly detests him and rightfully so.

I do hope that Lindsay gets constant therapy to deal with her mom and dad issues as well as badly needed voice therapy so she can have a good chance out there to really make it.If not it will be easy for her to regress.

PLAYING ELIZABETH TAYLOR

She is said to be up for the role playing Elizabeth Taylor. The two of them had a lot in common  of being child stars to hang alcohol an drug issues, so it is not that much of a stretch for Lindsay. But there will be a lot of critical eyes on Lindsay in that role. It is one of the hardest things in Hollywood to play another person’s life. It takes so much work.

Ask my former client Forest Whitaker who got the Academy Award for playing Idi Amin or

Andy Garcia who played Modigliani.

Michelle Williams got many awards for her portrayal of Marilyn Monroe. But it could have easily gone the other way.  Those who have played Marilyn in the past often made her campy or exaggerated her. Michelle caught her nuances and portrayed her just right.

I think that the best portrayal of JFK of all time was Greg Kinnear . He all  hof JFK’s subtle mannerisms as he studied JFK religiously. Hopefully Lindsay will do the same with her Elizabeth Taylor role. If not, it can be a disaster for her career and self esteem. So there is a lot riding on this role and how she does with it.

At any rate I hope she gets her head and her heart and her voice together . After all,  what goes on in your head and your heart is often reflected in your voice.

Whitney Houston’s Body Language Day Before Her Death Says It All

Sunday, February 12th, 2012


It’s Grammy Week and Whitney Houston was in town of the awards celebration. A call came into the paramedics who  rushed to the Beverly Hilton Hotel to revive an unconscious Whitney but it was too late. After numerous attempts to revive her the 48 year old singer was pronounced Dead.

The night before she died, there were numerous shots of her emerging from a club and she did not appear to be sober. In fact reports confirmed confirmed this. If you look at her body language of that night it speaks volumes.

Apparently she was on the belligerent side as she was helped out of the club.  You can she her finger pointing which often signifies anger along with there mouth formed in making the F consonant with her teeth biting down on her lower lip. Here is she being steadied by one of her companions.

Here she looks out of control and angry. Look at her companions around her. The woman near her hows a facial expression of disgust as she tries to stay Whitney as the gentleman in front of her look away with a numb facial expression. The expressions of those around her are markedly different than Whitney’s.

She finally makes it into the limo looking disheveled and unhappy. Whitney has been in denial about her drug use for a long time. Did it finally catch up with her? Did he body give out due to all of the abuse it had to withstand. Passing away after 48 years is way too young.
Recent reports t revealed she was on the brink of bankruptcy as well as facing mortgage foreclosure as the Morris County Sheriff’s Office recently authorized the mortgage foreclosure sale of her 10-acre New Jersey mansion for over $1million in overdue mortgage payments and taxes.According to the Daily Record of Parsippany, the $6million estate may be seized and sold as part of proceedings.

Apparently people in the music industry fronted her cash against her next album. supporting her and her label is fronting her cash against her next album an it was also reported that she has been taking small loans from friends and recently asked someone if he could borrow one hundred dollars.

This is devastating news from someone who a decade ago signed the biggest record deal in music history with Arista/BMG,  which renewed her contract with the label for $100million to deliver six new albums.

Whitney had her share of troubles from a Toxic enabling relationship with Bobby Brown who found out about Whitney before he was performing in Mississpi and went ahead with his performance anyway.

A few years ago Whitney tried to make a comeback as he went on a world  tour around the world for her platinum album “I Look To You” but it was a disaster with her hoarse off key voice as she failed to hit notes, which left many fans walking  out of her concert and booing her.

On tour she canceled  many concert dates which made many believe she may have been abusing drugs, but she denied those claims and blamed illness for  her cancellations.

While Whitney had a entourage of people around her. in my view she needed to have those people around her give her some tough love and stage a major intervention with her. But perhaps she only surrounded herself with like-minded people or people to afraid to rock the boat and their paychecks,  which would make such an intervention impossible.

More details will emerge as to the actual cause of her death. But most believe that drugs had some influence.

Whitney was a blessing with her magnificent voice. She won more awards than any other artist. But none  of this mattered in the long run. She was a vulnerable and fragile human being just like all of us . She had her demons who sadly overtook her talents an her life.

May she rest in peace.

Baby Lisa’s Mother Shows Much Defensiveness, Signals of Deception and Fake Tears on Dr. Phil

Thursday, February 9th, 2012

She looks up. She looks away. She immediately begins displaying a “crying face” when  Dr. Phil asks her  about the Kansas City Police Department giving her a fair shake. But what is really wrong with the picture is that there are no liquid  tears as she transitions to a non crying facial expresion within milliseconds.

Then she gets defensive and volunteers in a harsh and defensive tone . “It’s not a circus. It’s not a joke. ” First of all who said it was a circus and who said it was a joke? When someone volunteers extraneous and tangential information that has little or nothing to do with the case it usually indicates that it is a signal of deception and a case of “thou dost protest too much.” Then she goes on to say “This is not a game. This is my baby.” Once again who said anything about a game? In analyzing her statement, when someone is playing games and is the first to bring up the term “game” , it usually is a game they may be  playing.

In Debbie Bradley’s case, it seems to be a “cat and mouse game” with the Kansas City Police.  Also look at this photo below.

As she makes the statement , you see a facial expression of her crying. But look closely. There are no tears. It is reminiscent of Susan Smith and Casey Anthony. The crying facial expression  is without  tears. To me that is a huge red flag.

Look how Deborah Bradley clutches on to Jeremy Irwin’s hand. Look at how his index finger is extended.Their fingers do not interlock. It shows some distance between them in my view. Also look at his other hand. It is cupped into a fist, which in my estimation spells anger. Maybe deep down he is angry at Debbie for what may have happened to Baby Lisa on her watch.

Dr. Phil asks her if during the 90 days  new light was shed and whether something developed. . Deborah looks down and says   said “Yes but I’m not gonna talk about it.”Then WHY bother to appear on Dr. Phil? Why not speak to the Kansas City Police and tell them about the new developments.

Jeremy’s  voice is weak and he dies off at the end of sentences, which indicates that he too is confused about what happened to baby Lisa and no doubt Deborah’s possible role in all of this.

As Jeremy Irwin speaks, there is a numb robot- like tone to his voice. Look at his body language in relation to Deborah. He holds on to himself for comfort as he has his fingers interlocked as he speaks. Deborah has her hand on his thigh as if to guide him non -verbally in making sure he doesn’t say the wrong thing. There is not  a reciprocal physical connection to her when he speaks which is not a good sign as far as how this couple is  relating to one another. It seems to me that it indicates tension and disharmony in the relationship.

As their attorney Joe Tacopina spins his spin and speaks on behalf of the couple, we see Deborah dab her eyes. Only there are no tears to dab. To me that is a HUGE red flag,  body language wise.

When Dr. Phil asked Baby Lisa’s mother if she was wrong  when she said  that all the lights were turned  off  in the house  after her husband Jeremy contradicted her by saying the lights were on when he came home, she immediately went on the defensive and began to attack Jeremy .

She leaked out anger as she looked up and said that  ”what he said was a it was a huge exaggeration“. Her looking up during his crucial statement  along with her anger and defensiveness could be interpreted as a signal of deception.

When Dr. Phil asked  her about the cadaver dog’s hit we could see her squirm and fidget , indicating that she was very uncomfortable about this line of questioning. Then we see her  lick her lips, no doubt due to a case of  ”cotton mouth”  it may be  due to anxiety and is often a signal of deception. We then see her bite her lips  which indicates she was no doubt holding back information.
Throughout the interview the attorney kept interjecting. When a person has nothing to hide in my view,they speak openly sans attorney.
Prior to appearing on Dr. Phil , Deborah Bradley was vey inconsistent in her story.Now she is highly defensive. When someone is highly defensive it is often a red flag.
While I am not accusing Deborah Bradley of wrongdoing, her body language and facial language and speech content  and  Jeremy’s voice patterns and body language speak volumes. In my view fake tears are always cause for concern.

Kim Kardashian’s Botoxed Facial Language Alienating People?

Tuesday, December 27th, 2011

Look at Kim  Kardashiasn’s facial expression.  She is sitting on Santa’s lap and is supposed to be happy. But her facial expression says something entirely different. While her lips are parted and teeth are  teeth showing to indicate a  smile, there is something odd about the lip area as there is  no muscle movement seen. When you smile, there is muscle  movement in the lower jaw and at the side of the lips .

In this photo taken earlier in Kim’s life, you can see what I am talking about. There is a slight lower jaw tension and lines at the sides. The naso-labial folds course downwards as they should be. She looks natural and engaging.

But now there is none of that.In addition absolutely no other facial movement in her Santa photo. Her upper face is essentially frozen in a manaquin like position.

In a normal genuine smile there would be a crinkling of the forehead  and definite crinkling around the eyes  or some slight wrinkling under the eyes. But in the Santa photo you see none of that which makes her look wax-like. While she is pretty, there is an unnatural  non-human quality to the look.

Asa body language expert it is disturbing , because you cannot read anything from Kim’s face other than BOTOX. I am not sure Kim has used botox as I haven’t seen anyone shoot it into her face. But in my view, it sure looks like she has been heavy on the syringe lately.

Personally I find the natural look (wrinkles and crinkles) more beautiful  in people. There is nothing wrong with plastic surgery or  enhancing your appearance in my view. But there is a lot wrong when it interferes with your nonverbal facial  communication.

The repercussions are that people tend to turn off to you and they don’t relate to you. Facial expression and body movement are essential for good communication, especially of you want to relate to others. That is why I am not a fan of Botox.

Back in the day, Botox was used on patients who had vocal cord problems and muscle spams in the vocal cords where they could not speak without loosing their voices mid sentences. In that case Botox was a good thing.

It has also been used with cerebral palsy patients to release the muscle constrictions. In fact, I know of a prson who has cerebral pasley who uses Botox for this purpose and it is now difficult to tell if she has Cerebral Palsey as the Botox helped her previously uncontrolled head movement.

But when too much Botox is used to eliminate facial activity it is a bad thing in my view. While Kim’s wedding was a joke as you could tell it was not genuine from  her body language,  fans have rebelled. They have even called  to boycott Kim and the Kardashians all together. But perhaps  they may be rebelling  against Kim in particular for an additional reason as well. Perhaps they can no longer relate to Kim. Perhaps they  find her lack of facial animation unrelatable and a turn off.

Her monotone, nasal, non animated voice matches her now matches  non animated face and that is a very bad thing in terms of image, like ability and relate-ability.

Omar Sharif’s Toxic Body Language Typical of An Abusive Man

Friday, October 28th, 2011

When I saw the video of icon and leading man heartthrob back in the day, Omar Sharif of Dr. Zhivago fame ,I was beyond shocked. He abusively slapped  a woman simply because she wanted to have her photo taken with him. It was appalling. What was more appalling was looking at the video frame by frame and seeing how he gets enraged, slaps her, goes off on her, feels guilty about it, tries  to make nice but he is still  angry as he considers her the catalyst  for making him angry.

Meanwhile, like many abused women, she smiles through it all an accepts it. But the smile is tense and a smile of embarrassment.  Her body language reveals fear. As he tries to make nice, she backs off. He agrees to take a photo with her but his body language shows that he still habors resentment towards her.

Several years ago a study was done which showed women in Qatar tend to overlook when they are abused. That is devatsating news. The woman Sharif slapped seems to demonstrate this .

Below are the shocking series of events.

Sharif’s body language shows he is enraged  as he slaps this poor woman and yells at her that she needed to wait her turn to have her photo taken with him.

The woman fears him and his rage as she holds up her hand defensively.

The woman smiles and continues to smile throughout the ordeal.This is typical of abused women who may believe that they “deserved” it. No one deserves this kind of treatment-EVER!

He continues to berate her.He gestures wildly to ask her what he was thinking. All she did was try to get a photo with  him. An Egyptian, Sharif is considered one of the biggest  Middle Eastern  actors of all time. So for this woman to get a little excited and perhaps not wait her turn to get his photo is understandable.

He continues to berate this poor woman unmercifully. It is so embarrassing that the woman standing next to him who is most likely a handler bows her hed in shame as she wears an ambivalent smile.

Sharif now has a sudden change of heart as he realizes what he has done in front of the cameras. Can you imagine what this Toxic man must do when there are no cameras present ?

You can actually see him thinking about what he just did as the expression on his face  dramatically changed. His handler on the right has now distanced herself from Sharif as she looks downa nd away. Meanwhile the abuse victim continues to wear a mask like smile of embarrassment in order to save face..

As he has second thoughts as to what he did he bows his head in sham and walks over in the slapped woman’s direction. The photographer in the corner appears to be nervously amused and surprised . Hence the tense  ambivalent smile. He wonders what Sharif will do and whether there will be some more berating or slapping.

He comes over to her and this time the abuse victim cannot even beaar to look at him as she holds up her hand with the palm of her hand showing in an defensive gesture. He looks at her with hate and disdain. She creates a barrier between them with her hand as she looks away , yet continues her ambivalent smile. In essence she is guarding herself from another potential slap and or verbal abuse from Sharif.

He tried to “make up” by allowing her to have a phot with him. She obliges as that is what she wanted in the first place. She continues smiling her mask like smile as she did throughout the entire ordeal.  Meanwhile he turns his body away during this photo op as he really doesn’t want to have his photo taken with her but he does it to make himself feel better in trying to right his wrong in slapping her.

He now turns to look at her and says something in Arabic which causes her  to have a genuine smile. Look at the crinlking around her eyes. It is no longer mask like. She is  clearly taken aback as you can see by her retracted chin. This leads me to believe he may have even apologized to her. This is tyoical behavior of so many abusers. They las.h out, feel guilty and try to make things right.

Now they get ready to pose for the photographer. The woman is back to her mask like smile. He leans in for the phoo and looks at her to see how she is reacting to all of this. There is a look of  remorse  on his face  as he leans into her and looks directly at her. She does not look at him. Instead she looks in the direction of the photograher. Even though she has a slight smile on her lips, her eyes reflect sadness.

The photo is snapped and the woman is elated. Here she wears a genuine smile. It was a huge price to pay, but she finally got what she wanted- a photo of her with Omar Sharif. He leans in but does NOT smile. He is not happy with himself that he acted like a complete jerk for the world to see. His hunched over shoulders show embarrassment,  He feels even worse that this woman seems so happy now that the photo is taken, despite her slap.

The woman is so pleased and says thank you to him several times. In true Toxic Man form he turns away from he  and doesn’t even acknowledge her  thank you. He can’t wait to get away fast enough.

This is HORRIBLE! He is lucky the slap took place in Quatar. had it happened in the US, this woman would be very rich and he would be facing criminal charges as he would be hauled off to jail.

Having written the book Toxic Men which was released last year, I can assure you that Sharif shows all the characteristics of an abusive man. Here we all saw it frame after frame. Having seen the real Omar Sharif, there is no way I would even consider viewing any film he was in. This image of him slapping a woman is in my mind forever and that is the image I would see every time he would come on the screen for his acting scene.

This incident shows up a lot. It shows us how we idolize people for no good reason. We idolize them simply because they were in a film or on TV or they played well in a sport we like. If we admire and look up to  someone we should know a lot more about them-like their character. Apparently this was no an isolated incident.

Apparently Sharif has a long history of  getting physically abusive  with people  . In fact less than a decade ago, he attacked a policeman in a Paris casino and four years back, he pleaded no contest to” misdemeanor battery” for beating up a Beverly Hills parking attendant.

Casey Anthony’s New Look And Body Language and Seriousness of Judge Perry

Sunday, May 22nd, 2011

It seems that Jose Baez and the defense team may be taking my blogs to heart when it comes to Casey as there has been a dramatic change in Casey both dress wise and in her courtroom body language and demeanor.  

There has been a dramatic shift in her appearance from Day 1 to Day 11. 

From an image point  view Casey looks  much better in the black pants complete with matching black flat ballet type shoes. It gives her a more mature look. The black top underneath with the ruffles work. Image wise it says a lot. Black speaks of mourning. Even if she isn’t mourning for Caylee, she is mourning for herself and that at least keeps it real.

If she wore  a black suit jacket with the blouses she has underneath them it would be a sign of respect on her part and  would also distance her from the party girl image.

 Her hair also looked much better – away from her face and de-Snookied. She looked serious and ready to face her jurors without a manipulative baby style that would subconsciously anger jurors.

Casey deserves a fair trial and if she keeps dressing as she did when the jurors were sworn in, along with a black jacket to go with her black pants, I believe she is  more likely to get that fair trial. As she keeps it real, the jury can focus on what is really important and not be prejudiced by her look or appearance or, behavior.

On day one, Casey cried like a baby and she didn’t look at the jurors. Whether Jose said or didn’t say to Casey to not act like a two year old, the bottom line is that she got it that the baby behavior would not be tolerated by him. As a result she bucked up.

As the jurors were being sworn in, she looked  directly at  all of them and she didn’t cry.  But, it  may be too little too late for some of the jurors who  may remember their first impression of her of not  looking at them.

This time around, her behavior was appropriate. She looked directly at the jurors. The reality of her situation began to  set in.

The only time she flinched a bit was when she rose and  they walked out of the jury room. She could see concrete evidence that these 12 people had her life in their hands.

She also seemed a lot more comfortable, once again sitting  between Mason and Baez.

 The outburst at the trial by the woman who was mentally ill  appeared to surprise  Casey as it did everyone else. The woman was lucky that she just got 2 days in jail instead of the 179 days. The whole incident was sad and sickening to watch, especially as she nervously  plead her case to Judge Perry. She obviously had no business  being in the courtroom.

Personally I thought she should have just been admonished and pay a fine because of her condition. I felt sorry for her especially when she was up there terrified and shaking and couldn’t speak. But no doubt Judge Perry felt he had to make an example of her. After all, she did  a really bad thing which could have done irreparable harm  to the case. It seems that due to her condition and medications she may not have her filters working well so she burst out whatever was on her mind.

Maybe this incident will help her to get more sorted out in her life. No doubt someone in the media will interview her after she gets out of jail and perhaps pay her  for an interview or  even give her a licensing fee for photos of her  two year old Apparently  it has been reported that the  Anthony’s  have  made money this way-selling photos of Caylee to the media.

Maybe  the press will spin the story as the ” outburster”  being  a sympathetic character who couldn’t contain her own emotions because she too was a mother of a 2 year old and could never hurt her child. So  there may silver lining for her after all.

 ATTENDING THE CASEY ANTHONY TRIAL AT YOUR OWN RISK

What  happened in the courtroom was a preview of  what could happen to anyone sitting  in the audience. If  citizen, a   journalist or reporter whispers or makes any comments that can be heard  or  makes facial expressions, they could not only be booted out of the courtroom, they could be fined and sentenced as well. If  you come to the trial,  it is  at your own risk. So mind your behavior.

Judge Perry already warned about people in the gallery making facial expressions when witness testimony would be given. That particularly applies to George and Cindy who requested being in the courtroom throughout the trial, even though they were both witnesses as well.

Early on, George  had  been seen shaking his head “no” and mugging and smirking “ when Yuri Melich was on the stand. If he pulls that behavior again, Judge Perry will not stand for it. If he does it, we may very well see George getting thrown out of the courtroom, admonished, fined, and perhaps  sentenced as well. The same applies to Cindy as well.It may be  especially very very hard for her to contain herself as she hears Jose and his team throw her and George and Lee under the bus for being such poor parents.

Judge Perry does not want this overt expression because he does not want the jury to be influenced in any way.

Autopsy Photos of Caylee Marie May Shock Cindy, George, and Lee Anthony Into Reality So They Stop Defending Casey

Tuesday, April 12th, 2011

 

The prosecution filed a motion to include images of babay  Caylee Anthony’s remains.When a jury sees them, Casey will no  be sentenced to death in my view (unless of course there is a someone on the jury who will be the lone holdout because they have a crush on her).

That is the only thing that concerns me  and makes me wish I was doing jury selection for the prosecution.

If Cindy sees the autopsy photos of Caylee,  perhaps she will finally   stop saying that she thinks Caylee is still alive.

These  photos will give her the reality check she so desperately needs. They may  help her to get in touch with her real feelings towards Casey and out of denial.

She will no doubt hate Casey for getting back at her by killing Caylee so that she couldn’t have Caylee.  While Cindy  should hate herself for pushing her aberrant daughter over the edge by saying I will throw you out and keep Caylee, she is too narcissistic and controlling and self-absorbed to be that introspective in my view.

Like Casey, Cindy  has shown that she loves all the media attention and has tries to manipulate it to her end since day one.

The photos may  also  shock her into reality in terms of her  being such a “stubborn mule”  and not trying to locate her allegedly beloved Caylee.   Cindy  had never been away from Cayleee for that long- 31 days But to show Casey a thing or two, Cindy’s  pride got in the way. She refused to try and contact Casey,  thinking that it is Casey who needs to come crawling back home and apologize , not Cindy.

Well Casey did come back home  31 days later,  without Caylee. If Cindy had not been so stuck on being prideful and stubborn,  perhaps Caylee might still be alive.

George needs to see the autopsy photos to stop defending Casey and realize what a she devil he spawned or created, especially if he sexually molested her, as Casey  has repeatedly claimed.

If he sexually molested Casey or Caylee for that matter,  he needs to rot in hell. He needs to never show his face in the courtroom unless he is the defendant for his alleged egregious acts.

If  he did not molest Casey as she said, then these photos will shake him up so much that he will see how evil Casey is and how she has no soul.

He will see that she coldly killed her baby and coldly accused her own father of molesting her, especially  if it is not true. That is when he should never show up in court except to on the  last day to hear the words” Guilty” and “Sentenced to Death by Lethal Injection or Electric Chair.”

Whether or not he molested her, those explicit photos will shake him to the bone in terms of  how he non- parented Casey, and let her get away with so much. Casey’s words “Act like a father for the first time in your life” will resonate loudly when she sees those autopsy photos.

Lee needs to see the photos  as well. He needs to see what CMA, the sister he loves so much in every way did to an innocent soul. He needs to get that he can’t play two sides of the fence and coöperate with Law enforcement for his own selfish needs to become a PI and then sit in a courtroom and inappropriately mouth the words” I love you, like some star-crossed lover.

If he  actually molested Casey  as she said  on numerous occasions. he needs to see how his actions contributed to her deviant actions.

And of course Casey needs to see it. These images need to be etched into her brain forever. She needs to see what she  allegedly did  to this innocent baby.She needs to see the actual fruits of her labor.

When Casey  last saw Caylee, Caylee has skin on her body and was a whole intact person. She also last saw Caylee with duct tape over her nose and mouth.

Now Casey can see how Caylee’s body morphed into bones and a skull with hair with the  duct tape over what used to be Caylee’s nose and mouth, but are now only bones.

Of course Casey  will cry,  but not for Caylee.  Instead, she will cry because she got busted and is now in big trouble. She will cry because of what Caylee did to her by messing up her life and being born in the first place.

Caylee will never accept responsibility for Caylee’s death. A sociopath she can only blame others and can never look at themselves. They are not capable of feeling remorse or guilt.

We will no doubt see some crocodile tears or a look of anger when Casey views Caylee’s remains.But rest assured that we will never see remorse, or genuine emotion for anyone other than Casey.

Dr. Lillian Glass 2010 Ten Top Favorite and Inspiring Gifts

Monday, December 27th, 2010

With  Christmas over and the New Year approaching, it is time for me to look back on this year and to reflect on what were some of my best gifts. These best  gifts  are  my happiest  moments for which I am so grateful. As you will see from my list, the gifts of communication, being able to express myself, and being proactive, are some of the most important gifts for which I am grateful. Here is my list for 2010:

 1. The gift of Truth and Justice and the knowledge that  the American Justice system works as I  won a copyright infringement trial against Marsha Petrie Sue who not only copied my materials word for word but who also had the audacity to call her 2007 book Toxic People, the same name as my 1995 book Toxic People.  It was the best gift in the world to see that people like her cannot get away with this and that they must be held accountable for their actions and that everyone must know it.

2.  The next gift was  the enormous outpouring of the  public response, support  and touching comments of how I inspired so many people by going the distance and  fighting for my rights against people like Marsha Petrie Sue who take what you created and claim it as their own and how it inspired them to fight for their rights as well. The gift of their beautiful words are forever in my heart .

  3. The   powerful and healing words Eric Bjorgum,  my wonderful intellectual property attorney so  eloquently spoke in the US Federal courtroom is another gift I will carry with me forever.

 4. The gift of seeing how many people have already been impacted by reading my TOXIC MEN book is also a huge gift to me. The moving feedback of so many readers along with the support of Patti Stanger, BRAVO’s Millionaire Matchmaker, Dr. Laura,  Dr. Robi Ludwig,  and  Robin Sax, and of course  SNOOKI have meant so much to me.

 5.The gift of working with Nancy Grace and being a regular contributor  to her HLN show as well as to her Swift Justice Show. Being around Nancy  Grace, a woman with a mission who’s dedication to justice and to helping crime victims continues to inspire me.

6.  The gift of working with Adams Media and F and S Publications and  in particular the  wonderful people who have been so supportive of me and  my books and allowing me the forum to express myself so that I can get my message across to others.

 7.The gift of being able to regularly  express my thoughts and share my knowledge throughout the media from having my own body language column in Cosmopolitan Magazine to appearing  as a resident body language expert on such shows as  Millionaire Matchmaker and Dr. Phil as well as other television, radio , magazine, and internet outlets on a regular basis. I count my blessing daily.

 8. The gift of giving back is one of the things for which I am most grateful. Every week my family members and I travel around town to find those in need and provide them with a few things which can make their lives a little easier on the streets , from fresh warm blankets, to warm socks,  and tee shirts and sweats . Seeing bright eyes and smiles on faces that haven’t smiled for a long  time,  makes life worth living and is the best gift I can ever receive.

 9. The gift of new friends who seem like old friends ( ie.  Michael, Cat, Deborah,  Ree, Lois, Art, Jim, Steve,) and my old friends who have been renewed ( ie. Jan and Dave,  Reba, Martha, Elis, Chopsey, David,  Bob and  Stacy,  Susan, Shar , Ilsa, Robert, Teri, Nancy,  Donna , Jennifer,  Gloria, Rolanda, Carrie,  Mark, Bob, Phyllis, Suzy  Connie, Chris, Donna, Katiem Kerry,  Janet Victor David W, Motty, Shadoe, Brian, John, Gail)    and to FB for now allowing me to keep in touch.  I am grateful for all of my FB friends and friends on Twitter and most of all my very close and special  friends who add to the beauty of my life.

 10.And last but not least I am grateful for the gifts that my beautiful family has given me throughout my life and continues to give me- their  integrity, honesty, sincerity, continued love and support which I truly cherish.

    Did Ronni Chasen’s Agressive Communication and Body Language Anger Someone Who May Have Murdered Her?

    Wednesday, December 1st, 2010

    The question on most people’s minds in the entertainment industry as well as those who live or work in Beverly Hills is who killed publicist Ronni Chasen and why?  Was she specifically targeted or is everyone in danger in Beverly Hills?

    CRIME LIKE THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN IN BEVERLY HILLS

    In a town where there is little crime and no murders in 2009,  people are very frightened and on edge.  The reason people are so spooked is because there is little to no crime here. That is due to the Beverly Hills Police Department, who is next to none. They are the crème de la crème.

    They watch this town like a hawk with surveillance cars and constant patrolling and monitoring. If they are called for any 911 emergency, they will promptly be at the scene within 60 to 150 seconds. So that is all the more reason people are freaked out by what happened to Ronni Chasen.

    POSSIBLE THEORIES FLOATING AROUND AS TO WHY RONNI WAS MURDERED

    There have been many theories floating around as to the motive of killing Ronni Chasen from

    a) a gang initiation

    b) a professionally jealous colleague jealous of her successful Oscar campaigns

    c) someone whom she leaked bad press about to media outlets that cost them a relationship or a business deal

    d) someone who wanted to stop her from doing her job,  which was to create publicity campaigns in an attempt to persuade the judges of film awards like The Oscars to choose her clients above the rest which would result in big money

    e) gambling debts and refusing to pay up

    f) someone whom she cut off in traffic six minutes before she was killed because she was talking on her cell phone and leaving a “to do list” on the other end while perhaps not paying attention to the road

    g) an art deal gone wrong

    h) a mob killing linked to investors on one of her many movies

    i) a psychopathic serial killer on the loose

    j)        a disgruntled  former client

    k)        a disgruntled  former employee or housekeeper

    j) someone whom she snubbed, disrespected,  humiliated,  belittled or  screamed and yelled at because they didn’t do  what she wanted or do things her way

    PR PRAISES ABOUT RONNI FROM THE TOP OF THE LINE PR PROS

    When it was first in the press that Ronni has been murdered  only her fellow PR colleagues like top of the line veteran PR people like Paul Bloch, Stan Rosenfeld, Howard Bragman, and Michael Levine spoke out and sang her praises in true Hollywood PR fashion.

    They  stated  that she was the sweetest woman alive and that everyone loved her and she had no enemies. Powerful Hollywood journalist Nikki Finke spoke  lovingly and kindly as did other journalists who were interviewed.

    But as the days have passed, while her clients have also  attempted to say positive things   about her in the press, they also  managed to  leaked out another side to Ronni’s persona that may give us some insight into her personality which may have alienated the wrong person.

    THE OTHER SIDE OF RONNI REVEALED BY FRIENDS AND COLLEAGUES

    Here are some  other revealing comments and descriptions  from her clients, friends  and colleagues:

    “She was persistent” Peter Hamond

    “doggedly determined”person Eddie Kalish

    “She was known for her “fast-talking, old school, New York aggressiveness on behalf of her clients and was not a person one quickly forgot after meeting. Peter Goldstein

    Songwriter Diane Warren paints a picture of a publicist who was determined to get what she wanted and who was  ”fiercely protective” of her clients.

    When it came to Ronni getting a photo op with celebrities Diane reported  Ronni said” “(Chasen) goes, ‘I don’t care what I have to do – I’m getting that picture,’ ” Warren explains. “That was Ronni — she had something she wanted to do… and she got that picture.” “She really cared, her clients were like family to her,” says Warren. “She’d tell you what to do and people listened to her.”

    At her funeral service her  turbocharged drive in a segment of the business never known for the faint of heart was mentioned. Eulogists all described Chasen’s forceful personality.

    At the funeral service her close friend Vivian Mayer-Siskind’s seemingly lighthearted comment  about Ronni revealed even more about her and her personality that some would not find so  appealing as she said “Ronni came to me last night and was pissed as hell. ‘Now you get me a free Armani suit.’ “

    Perhaps the most revealing insight into Ronni Chasen;s personality came from Producer Irwin Winkler of Rocky fame who said that when his 2004 film “De-Lovely” was not nominated for a Golden Globe, Chasen “was furious.”

    “She screamed and yelled at (members of) the Hollywood Foreign Press (Assn.),” the group that puts on the annual awards show, Winkler told The Times.

    While she may have been consistently pleasant to her friends and colleagues  and  described as fiercely protective over her  clients who clearly  paid her large amounts of money, the real question is  how was she to others who were not  A list paying stars or movie studio executives?

    DID SHE YELL AND SCREAM AT THE WRONG PERSON?

    While friends colleague and clients may have appreciated her being pushy and having too much chutzpah,  and sense of entitlement, traits that obviously work in Hollywood,  perhaps there were others who were equally so put off with her  relentless behavior, that they may have found her  to be one of the most Toxic People.

    When someone yells and screams at others like Irwin Winkler  reported Ronni  did to the Hollywood Foreign press because her client didn’t get nominated for an award,  it makes you wonder about who else she yelled at because she didn’t get her way or get what she wanted.

    Did she scream and yell at the wrong person? Did she humiliate them? Did they harbor such ill feelings  towards her and allow them to fester to the point  they wanted her dead? Did they hate her that much that they took their fantasy of wanting her dead and turned  it a reality by driving up to her car  and shooting her five times in the chest?

    SHOOTING SOMEONE 5 TIMES IN THE CHEST SIGNIFIES SEVERE HATRED TOWARDS THE PERSON

    Apparently she had been shot while traveling to her home in Westwood  after attending the premiere of Burlesque, a new film starring Cher, and an after-party at the W hotel. The person or people who shot her obviously had such disdain for her that they shot her in the chest not one time- but five times.

    That screams of hatred and rage. In a random drive by shooting there would usually be one shot. But for someone to keep their finger on the trigger and shoot five times, it means they were  furious with her. They wanted to make sure she was dead!

    While we know that the shooting was from one car to another, as of today there are still no suspects, no motive, no witnesses according to Beverly Hills Police Department Lt. Tony Lee.  So the mystery remains.

    The one thing that gives hope  in solving this tragedy is that the well respected  Beverly Hills Police Department is on top of it and they will leave no stone unturned until the killer or killers of Ronni Chasen  are found.www.drlillianglass.com
