John Edwards is still up to his manipulative ways as he tried to make eye contact with each juror as they filed into the courtroom on their fourth day of deliberation before they headed home for the day. There is an old courtroom adage that jurors who return the defendant’s gaze with a quick smile or a nod may be leaning toward acquittal, whereas those who turn away could be signaling guilt. This is not the case. In the first place all of the jurors know that all eyes are upon them and that this is one of the most high profile cases in the country. No juror would want to place themselves or the trial in jeopardy so I have no doubt that none of the jurors returned Edward’s gaze or aknowleged him. His behavior once again demonstrates his arrogance. While he may have done this jury eye contact game as a trial attorney, it won’t work when he is the defendant. Most of these jurors are no doubt petrified to leave any stone unturned. May are tense and in knots at knowing that their decision can potentially put the defendant behind bars for life. Therefore it would be very difficult at this point in time to get an accurate reading body language, facial expression and and demeanor. As proof that this jury is taking their job extremely seriously, they asked for office supplies and a stack of trial exhibits that included copies of handwritten notes from the 101-year-old heiress Rachel “Bunny” Mellon, one of two wealthy political donors who provided the nearly $1 million used to help hide the Democrat’s pregnant mistress as he sought the White House in 2008. Only when the jury comes into the room after they have made their decision, can one get a glimpse of what will be in store for Edwards. If they appear relaxed, and they don’t look down as they enter the room, and look in Edward’s direction, their decision will most likely be in Edward’s favor. If they look tense and don’t look in Edwards direction or have furrowed brows, fidget, bite their lips or have extraneous hand or foot movements, things will not be going in Edward’s favor. There was also speculation that because the jury foreman was wearing blue jeans that a decision was still at least a day away. The thinking on this was that people dress up more when they think they might be photographed. This I not the case. The jurors are not on trial and don’t feel they have to impress anyone, so their attire is irrelevant. For many, jeans have become acceptable standard attire. This may be the case for those who may have dressed in jeans as part of their daily attire such as the plumber, railroad engineer ad the two mechanics who sit on the jury. The fact The corporate vice president and a retired accountant who are on the jury will no doubt provide some strong financial and business insight as they make their decision about Edward’s fate.. If Edwards is to be convicted the U.S. District Court Judge Catherine C. Eagle’s instruction to the jurors was that they must conclude beyond a reasonable doubt not only that the candidate knew about the secret payments made on his behalf, but he knew the cover up was illegal and that he went ahead anyway. |

John Edwards Tries To Read Jury’s Body Language As Jury Goes into Fourth Day of Deliberation
Thursday, May 24th, 2012Rebekah Brook’s Body Language May Not Sit Well With Jurors
Sunday, May 20th, 2012
When I watched Rebekah Brooks, former editor of News of the World, once the most powerful woman in the Rupert Murdoch empire present her testimony I observed that he cockiness, air of arrogance and entitlement relayed via her monotone facial expression and icy tone would not go over well at the Leveson Inquiry.
Even the dress this once fashion plate wore- a white peter pan collar in with black bodice , as seen in the photo above, backfired as it was obviously worn to manipulate in giving the illusion of appearing as a soft, meek, innocent school girl.
She has now been charged with the crime of “ conspiring to pervert the course of justice”- a crime which carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment.
The body does not lie and neither does the voice. In my view she needs to come across more humble and less hostile if she has any chance of presenting her case so a jury will listen to her with an open mind.
In another blatant show of arrogance and manipulation, Rebecca Brooks and her husband decided to have their press conference five minutes before the Crown Prosecution Service had their chance to announce that Rebecca Brown has been charged. The Brown’s made a calculated move to make their announcement before s6PM to make sure it would appear on the evening news.
Her husband also did not do his wife any favor her during the presser as he accused the prosecutors of subjecting his wife to a “witchunt” and stated that there were 172 police officers investigating phone hacking, computer hacking and corrupt payments to public officials. He then went on to say “so it’s no surprise to me that the pressure is on to bring prosecutions, however weak they may be” and
“I have grave reservations that my wife can ever get a fair trial, given the huge volume of biased commentary that she is constantly subjected to.”
Rebekah Brooks did not help her defense as well by
stating that it was “nothing more than an expensive sideshow, a waste of public money as a result of an unjust and weak decision.”
Both Brooks and her husband will appear at City of London magistrates’ court on June 13, after having been formally charged with tree counts conspiring to pervert the course of justice after news of a deceased girl’s voicemails were hacked by News of the World and she allegedly concealed documents, computers, and other electronic equipment” from Scotland Yard officers who were investigating phone hacking and corrupt payments to public officials.
While Brook’s trial is said to begin next year, it was just announced at the Canes film festival that there will be a film about her life which Producer Gene Kirkwood likens to the downfall of Richard Nixon will trace her rise to power from secretary to one of the most powerful women in the world. There is even talk of Nicole Kidman portraying Brooks because of their physical likeness. The project is said to begin when Brook’s phone hacking scandal concludes so the producer will know how the film will end.
According to a Vanity Fair article on which the film will be based, Rebekah Brooks used her “magnetic attraction” to make her way in a male-dominated tabloid world as well as getting whatever she wanted in life.
Her “magnetic attraction” which worked so well for her in the past may now come to an end as she faces a jury of her peers. She will no longer be able to use her feminine charms to manipulate. She will need to come across a lot differently and lose the “attitude”if she has any chance at not spending the rest of her life behind bars.

Thursday, May 17th, 2012
Seeing John Edward’s parents accompanying him to the North Carolina courtroom was was heartbreaking as hearing about Elizabeth Edward’s reaction to John’s betrayal. His parents looked broken. His mother looked stunned as his father appeared to hang his head in shame. While John tried to steady his father by placing his arm in back of his father, his father appeared unresponsive. His mother walked ahead of him as he did not reach out to touch her as seen in the photo above.
As they left the courtroom as you can see in the photo above, his mother walked well ahead of her son as his father trailed behind. This photo speaks volumes to me in terms of his parent;s literally distancing themselves from their son. As the defense rested, they are fully aware of the possible outcome and they are keeping a physical and emotional distance.
John was once the apple of his parent eyes. He was their hope and dream. They raised him with proper Southern values. They gave him the best education and provided him with a positive role model. No doubt they were so proud of his success as an accomplished attorney, his marriage to an bright “equally accomplished wife, his giving them grandchildren, and his venturing into politics as a Senator, VP Candidate, Presidential Candidate and possible President of the United States.
But all of their hopes and dreams for their golden boy vanished when his ego and entitlement and poor judgement got in his way. He cheated on his cancer stricken wife, lied to the nation,fathered an illegitimate child with a mistress, and created so much stress in wife Elizabeth’s life that her health suffered as she succored to her cancer. His actions not only devastated Elizabeth and his older daughter Cate, but as we see in the photos has devised his parents as well.
If convicted of improper use of campaign funds, he may be sentenced to prison for the rest of his life. No doubt his parents are well aware of what may happen to their son and it clearly shows in their body language.
Share on FacebookKim Kardashian and Kanye West’s Body Language Doesn’t Show Much Love So Talk of Marriage May Be PR Ploy
Thursday, May 3rd, 2012
PR machine ,Kim Kardashian has hooked up with another PR machine- Kanye West. After only a few weeks together there is now talk of merging both of their PR machines with a wedding- complete with cameras and a televised wedding. This would be a dream come true for momager Kris Jenner . It will give their brand more of a storyline as people will want to see the ins and outs of this “marriage” and potential baby.
From a PR standpoint, Kanye’s marriage into the Kardashan family may indeed help Kanye’s Toxic and hateful selfish narcissistic image. It will also give him more exposure to millions of viewers and help sell his music.
From Kim’s standpoint, marriage to Kanye won’t make her appear like such a loser in love and will get the haters off her back (at least for a while) for her alleged television sham wedding to Kris Humphries.
But no mater how much PR spin is forced down the throats of the public, the bottom line is that these two in my view may very well be friends but as far as romance goes, it does not appear to be the case. Body language wise we see the true story emerging. While there may be numerous photos of the two of them holding hands and posing for cameras there, is no love to be seen.
Just look at the above photo. There is no smiling on Kanye’s face and they are looking in the opposite direction. This is a bad sign as far as romance goes. When you are in love you can’t wipe the smile off your face. Also look at Kim’s hand on Kanye’s neck. It is cupped in a fist like position and it is facing towards her. She’s not even touching him. This gesture often means anger and being closed off and distant. It is interesting how the fist is pointing back at herself. Kanye’s hand is also in a fist. He appears angry as well. His angry closed off fist is consistent with his angry facial expression.
Here is another posed and phony photo where Kanye is is ” angry not in love with Kim” . He looks sad as well. Look at the downturned mouth. Kim is kissing air and posed. There is also a lot of tension in her neck. Look at the pull of her neck muscle. She doesn’t cup his head in affection, but instead poses her fingers on the back of his head as though she was doing photo shoot.
While Kanye is smiling, it is not a genuine love filled smile. Kim is not smiling and does not lean into Kanye.She is making sure she is front and center of the camera. Her head is not leaning in towards his head or his shoulder as there is a mask like expression on her face.
Here we see the two of them posing for cameras with no genuine love between them. Kim has a non genuine tense smile as he leans away from Kanye. . His body is away from her and does’t face her belly to belly which is a bad sign in the love department. And of course he is not smiling which means he is not happy. Look at their arms as well. They do not touch one another. Their arms are at their respective sides. This is not a good sign either. Also notice Kanye’s posture. It is hunched over. Perhaps he is showling signs of intimidation with regard to the Kardashian PR machine , that he has stepped into.
This shot says it all. It is not about the two of them showing love for one another together. It is about each of them showing love for themselves. Kim is preening and her body is pulled away from Kanye. Her legs are crossed and her hip and legs positioned away from Kanye in a protective stance. Kanye also shows a protective gesture as he crosses his arms and covers his torso . he is hunched over and although he is smiling, he is not smiling at Kim as he looks in the opposite direction.
And finally, this shot says it all as well. Kanye is preoccupied and not paying attention to Kim. They are completely disconnected.. Kim is looking in the opposite direction.
These are only a few of he countless photos I have examined when it comes to Kim and Kanye.It proves once again that the body does not lie. No matter how they pose or try to convince one another that they are a loving couple, their body and face language say the opposite.
When Kanye was dating former girlfriend Amber Rose, there was a lot of genuine affection between the two as they appeared to be in synch with one another as you can see in the photo above. Kanye showed more genuine smiles and they even walked in step. There was a lot of passion and heat in photos between the two in so many of their photos.
The same holds true for Kim and Reggie Bush. They were very much in synch and appeared genuinely in love based on their body language. So she is quite capable of being loved and being loving just as we see in the photo above.
But it does not appear that she has that same chemistry with Kanye’s. Kanye’ body language with Amber Rose and Kim’s body language with Reggie Bush show the sharp contrast that they have with one another in so many of their photos.
So if they end up together it is not a great idea in my view.They don’t seem to have much in common and that s a bad thing for any relationship. In addition, Kanye is super intelligent and highly talented which is the opposite of Kim. Kanye is also very much the controller type which may not work well with Kim and her momager, Kris. Kanye has a mind of his own and to get involved in the Kardashian fray may dwarf his power , much like it did to Bruce Jenner. It may also be a huge distractions career wise as it has been for Lamar Odom .
For the short run, seeing them wed on camera or produce an offspring may work well for ratings but for the long run it may very well turn out to be a disaster.If they are having this much negative body language interaction so early on in their romance, it does not bode well for a long term future together.
Share on FacebookGeorge Zimmerman’s Monotone and Lame Apology To Trevoyn’s Parents May Hurt Him and Gives Insight Into Zimmerman’s Character
Friday, April 20th, 2012
Today George Zimmerman gave an apology to Treyvon Martin’s parents. But that apology I believe hurt him and did not help him. The tone was monotone and sounded unemotional . It did not sound heartfelt. In addition his body language was cold . Just as he did not show signs of vocal animation which would reflect sincerity and contrition, he he did not show any signs of physical animation in his body language. Vocally and physically his actions looked and sounded robotic and insincere.
The lack of sincerity in the tone to me seemed like he was doing this to improve his image with the public. I am not the only one who thought this as the prosecuting attorney immediately asked if he was apologizing because the press was present. George denied it.
The analysis of his statement and words were as telling as his monotone voice. A person who is sincere would have said things a lot differently than George did. He would have also shown some genuine emotion when he spoke. His voice would have reflected sorrow, which it did not
He would have said “I’m sorry for the loss of your son,” and left it at that. He would have said it with an emotional tone and with an upset look on his face. He would not have added
“I did not know how old he was, “I thought he was a little bit younger than I was and I did not know if he was armed or not.”
If Treyvon’s parents are upset with Zimmerman’s apology I believe they have every right to be. This “apology” appeared self serving to me. Is Zimmerman saying that if Treyvon was 19 or 25 or even 40 it would have made a difference that he was shot?
Why is he talking about not knowing that Treyvon was armed or not during an apology to the parents? This information is what needed to have been discussed in the courtroom during a trial not during an attempt to apologize to the parents.
Zmmerman has a new attorney. I can’t imagine his attorney allowing him to say this in court as it may come back to haunt him during the trial. Just his monotone face and voice alone could be used against him. The prosecuting tourney can show this to a jury and see that he was not sincere.
This leads me to believe that George Zimmerman is a loose canon who does not listen to anyone including the dispatcher who told him not to follow Treyvon or to his former attorneys.
His former attorneys gave a presser last week stating that George was not in contact with them and said that he did not heed their advice. In essence George passively aggressively dropped them without speaking to them directly and telling them he wanted to seek other counsel. The attorneys at their presser were not supportive of Zimmerman’s actions and behavior in relation to how he dealt with them.
This new incident of Zimmerman speaking like he did court and saying what he said makes me wonder how much control his new attorney has over him. Perhaps he told his new attorney he wanted to apologize to the parents and the attorney thought it was a good idea. But I am sue that there is no way Zimmerman shared the rest of his apology with his new attorney about making a statement about Trevyvon’s age and whether or not he was armed. If he did, I am sure that his new attorney would have prohibited him from doing so.
This action may very well give us more insight as to Zimmerman’s personality and character of being hot headed, doing what he wants to do and ignoring others who are in charge. His actions today have turned off a lot of people, including myself. It showed a lack of compassion and a lack of sincerity.
I agree with the prosecutor who stated that it was “really aggressive,” that Zimmerman made the statement to Trayvon’s parents, Tracy Martin and Sybrina Fulton, who were sitting in the courtroom. What was aggressive was that he was in essence justifying his actions and pleading his case.
Upon further questioning by the prosecutor ,Zimmmerman said that he had asked his previous lawyers to express his sorrow to the Martin family. But what about his current lawyer? He needed to have his new counsel be his spokesperson and express sympathy to the young boy’s parents. So it confirms that he is not respecting his own current attorney who trying to guide what comes out of his client’s mouth before trial. www.lillianglass.com

Bobbi Krisitna’s Smoking Self Destructive Body Language As “Fiance” Loves The Newfound Attention
Saturday, March 17th, 2012
Once again Bobbi Kristina Brown’s adopted “brudder” now alleged fiancé is loving the limelight as he comes out of Starbucks carrying two coffee cups laden with creme. His posture is ramrod straight and his head is up, indicating lot of self confidence.
Here he checks out all the papas taking his photo and seems to be in awe of all of the attention bestowed upon him. There is a look of contentment and an ever so slight smile as it is evident that he is really enjoying this.
He doesn’t even acknowledge Bobbi Kristina s they leave the store. He looks to the right at the papas. 
She reaches out to grab his hand, indicating her neediness, something we saw on their last outing. He now ;ooks up at all the papas to the left while she looks down. He doesn’t hold her hand tightly. Instead he lightly holds it along with is iPhone . He doesn’t even move the iPhone to his other hand in order to grasp her needy hand. That is very telling.
Now Bobbi Kristina breaks away from his non-hand holding and lights up a cigarette. She is obviously letting everyone know (now that she has a photo forum) that yes, she can smoke and so whatever she wants and no one can tell her what to do.
She allegedly made that comment verbally as well, earlier today as she responded to her grandmother Cissy’s comment that she was committing incest with her “adopted ” brother. She apparently said that she didn’t need Crissy’s blessing and could do whatever she wants to do.
Cissy no doubt wants to step in but her self destructive granddaughter is over 18 so there is little she can do. She is trying to get the estate to kick the “adopted” brudder out of the house he is now living in with Bobbi Kristina.
It is so obvious to see what is happening. This child is going through her anger phase in her grief process. She is taking her anger out on her grandmother and doing some very self destructive things like allegedly doing drugs, hooking up with her adopted brother,smoking and who knows what else.
She has every right to be angry. her world just fell apart with her best friend and confidant- her mother. Her father essentially abandoned her when she needed him the most . Most likely grandma Cissy has her own set of issues in dealing with her beloved daughter’s grief, so she can’t focus on Bobbi, ( who doesn’t want to be focused upon) full-time . Now she appears to be acting out like a rebellious teenager.
I wish she had a responsible adult in her life to go i and take charge but it does;t seem like there is anyone there. When Britney Spears had her meltdown form years back, it was her father who stepped in. That is why she is doing so great now. Too bad Bobby her father hasn’t demonstrated he is man enough to do the same. So Bobbi Kristina in looking for that adult male figure has turned o someone 3 years older than he who may very well be as messed up as she is, of not more messed up. he has no life experience and does not know what is best for Bobby Kristina.
When he was asked questions by the papps he kept saying ” No comment” to whatever question they asked. But then he shared that Bovi Kristina was” staying strong.: He looked very proud as he said those words. The last thing Bobbi Kristina needs to do now is stay strong. She needs to grieve. She needs to be that little girl. She needs to be weak and have someone strong and responsible there for her to guide her into her next phase of her life. That phase is NOT marriage to this unaccomplished, uneducated , jobless man who is in he life.
This is the worst train wreck waiting to happen. It is classic in terms of what will most likely happen. As he gets more enrolled in this vulnerable naive child’s life, he will gain more control. If he marries her he will have more control of her finances. he will have control over what she does and dent do and who to who she can’t associate with. Since her family has rejected him publicly, no count he will keep them away from her. When she does finally grow up a bit and try to step out on her own, it would come as no surprise if verbal or physical violence did no . t ensue. She may end up with a relationship very similar to the one she saw growing up with her father Bobby and mother Whitney. Since Nick lived in their home as well, he too must have seen the same thing as Bobbi Kristina did in terms of a bad relationship role model. This cannot turn out well in my view.
I so wish she had someone to come into her life and insist she get educated, go to college and help her develop her talents through proper training and coaching. But at this juncture it does not look as it will happen. Seeing Bobbi Kristina light up a cigarette in front of the papas tells us everything. It’s a symbol of rebellion. Unfortunately she needs to rebel against the lifestyle her mother and father led. She needs to rebel against self destruction. Unfortunately this will not happen. I pray she does not have a tragic end like her mother.
Bobbi Kristina’s Body Language Shows Neediness In PDA With Nick Gordon
Thursday, March 15th, 2012News 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.

Rush Limbaugh’s Body Language Says Apology Was Not Sincere
Tuesday, March 6th, 2012
While Rush Limbaugh’s words may have indicated he was sorry for referring to the 30 year old law student as a “slut” his body language said something entirely different. As you can see in the photo above he is looking down and reading his apology. When you give a heartfelt apology you don’t look down and read it. You speak it form your heart.
Next his voice was monotone and devoid of emotion. When you apologize there is the sound of contrition in your tones. There was none here. Then as we see in the photo above there was a lot of lip pursing. This means that Rush was angry that he had to apologize at all.
Now look at Rush’ hand as he apologizes. The palm is down and fingers are splayed. This body language gesture means that he is not being sincere.
As he continues we really see his anger through his body language a he makes a fist when he apologizes. When someone makes a fist as they speak to you, they are angry. Rush was angry that he was forced to apologize. No doubt he meant every word he said about the young woman. He just was angry that the advertisers were pulling out and that he had to succumb to an apology.
When Rush said that the advertisers no longer wanted to advertise on his show, while he indicated he didn’t mind through his matter of fact intonation, his body language said the opposite as he pursed his lips and swallowed hard.
You could actually see him gulping. This indicates that he was indeed upset about what was happening. As you can see below, the names of some of the advertisers are pretty significant such as AOL and Allstate. They did NOT want their reputations tarnished by the Toxic fallout of Rush’s hateful words.
While Rush was filing during his apology, it was not a sincere one. The apples of his cheeks were not raised and his eyes were not smiling which one sees in a genuine smile. His teeth were also clenched as you can see int he photo above.
Rush tried to brush this incident off as comedy. But there was nothing comical in his tone or in the punch line or in what he said. While he is entitled to agree or disagree with the issue at hand like any talk show commentator does, he is not entitled to name the woman and refer to her as a slut or a prostitute. That is hateful and harsh.
It also reflects in my view some major deep seated hateful feelings towards women- strong women – formidable women with opinions and with a voice. And please don;t tell me that he has no issues with women because he got married recently. He got married four times so there is obviously some major issues with women going on here.
Back in the day, he called Sally Jesse Raphael who at the time was a powerful women with her own talk show, a Femi- Nazi. That was harsh back then and it is harsh now when he used the term over a decade later. It shows rage towards women. Just putting the word Nazi attached to women is offensive in itself. It is hateful and hostile.
While over 15 million people listen to Rush and he represents a significant voice in the conservative circles, that voice can be silenced as well. No one is beyond public opinion or the law. Look at what is happening to Rupert Murdoch and al of the investigations and arrests in his media empire for allegedly doing the wrong thing and illegally wiretapping people.
It is interesting to listen to all of the politicians and supporters of Rush pussyfoot around and play The Emperor ha new clothes when he is intact naked.” Those who don’t come out and say this is uncalled for or unacceptable show weak character in my view. they don;t want to alienate or upset the 15 million supporters so they pussyfoot around it. To mea that is just as bad a Rush.
They could say that they like and repeat Rush but have to take issue with how he referred to this young lady. When they say it was a bad joke or humor or start going on the offensive and saying how the liberals can say the C word and speak similarly about others and nothing happens to them, it makes you think less of the politician and shows you that they are weak and wimpy and kiss ups that have their best interests at heart. But their non commitment to saying what is really wrong backfired on them.
I am not political a you know from reading my blogs. I say it like it is regardless of the party or who is involved. This is wrong. It is so insincere and the fact hat he apologized so insincerely makes him look even worse. The woman whom he insulted doesn’t even want his apology. In fact there was some talk by Geraldo Rivera on his new radio show that this was slander and libel and that she could sue him for thee things.
While that may be an option for her to remedy her situation, the good news is that it put her issue in the forefront so that she has a bigger voice to speak her mind and to let the public know her viewpoint. Once again I am not saying that I agree or disagree with her as that is not the point. The point is that while you may be angry with a person’s point of view and what they say, you should never call them out for being a slut or a whore , especially when you don’t even know them.
This was clearly a personal attack on this woman that was not deserved. While he could attack her ideas, he should never have attacked her moral character.
Share on FacebookKate Gosslin Continues Self Pitying Body Language Non-Tears on Dr. Drew And Still Has Issues With Jon
Friday, February 24th, 2012
Just when we thought Kate Gosslin was off the radar, she has resurfaced on Dr. Drew, complete with her fake alligator tears. And no- I am not picking on Kate and nor do I hate her. I just report what I see and what I see is phoniness and yes I am not a fan of spin or phoniness. Kate has nothing to say except that she is lonely and crys about it. She also is still charged up about ex-husband Jon and reluctantly
admits her is doing a better job of fathering. Her tone of voice says she still harbors bitterness towards him and hasn’t let go of it.
She feels sorry for self saying “The odd are against me- one mom 8 kids. ” Well this former maternity nurse should have thought of that before she started abusing Jon and before she took it upon herself to pop fertility pills and have 8 kids.
Then she reveals a lot to us as she says ”its one versus 8″– WHAT!! versus? It means there is an adversarial position. It sound alike she is saying that the kids are against her.
Then she says “I clean up the house I put kids to be and there I sit! So I m lonely. ” Well who’s doing is that? If she is so lonely and wants company, there are plenty of dating sites out there featuring men who can accommodate her loneliness.
Then she said “The most I would want out of someone is for them to say , ‘did you just hear what your mother said’?”. How sad!! She then says” I’ ve got all the barking I just need the backup. “Well she is essentially saying she wants a yes man puppet to stand there and confirm all that she says whether it is right or wrong.
When she says she “has all the barking “the choice of the word “barking ” is alo very revealing. Barking means verbally loud and vocally attacking which she reveals she is doing to those kids. She says “the need is going to be stronger as they are older and start pushing.”
Kate has unrealistic expectations in this regard. The reality is that no man is going to do that for her.
If she is so lonely with her 8 kids she definitely needs to see a therapist in my view, in order to dig into her loneliness and why she can’t bond and relate with someone. I am certain that a lot of it has to do with her not letting go of the animosity she harbors and expresses towards Jon.
Kate is having trouble finding a mate in my view because anyone who saw the Kate Plus 8 show will always remember how abusively she treated Jon. That image of her belittling him and emasculating him is hard to erase from anyone’ s mind. She came across as an angry woman. Most men do not respond to very well to that.
While she looks pretty with her longer hair, pretty isn’t enough in this day and age. In fact pretty and a toned and slim body is only a small part of the equation now. Your personality and how you treat someone and how unselfish you are counts a lot more.
It still is all about her as we don’t hear her say she wants a man because she wants to share a life with him. She says she wants a man so she won’t feel lonely.
Perhaps if she focused on having more fun with her 8 kids she wouldn’t feel lonely. If she still felt lonely she should volunteer at a children’s hospital and give some of her kid’s toys to the sick kids. Maybe she will count her blessings when she sees how lucky she is that her kids aren’t dying of leukemia. Maybe she can volunteer to feed the homeless in a shelter once a week. She needs to count her blessings and give back as there by the grace of God goes Kate.If the TLC show had not come into her life to give her financial security, she may have been in a very bad financial position.
She should join some women’s support groups or group therapy. That would help her with her loneliness. She should reconcile with her multiple siblings and parents. That too would help her loneliness.
Selfish and self consumed people often end up very lonely as they age. They expect to get and don’t give. The law of nature and karma is that you can’t get if you don’t give. She needs to stop the self pitying non-tears and do something about her life.
Having 8 kids is not the real reason she is lonely. A man can love a woman whether she has 8 kids or 8 legs or no legs if she appeals to him as a person and he sees her inner beauty.
Sometimes in life it is not your time to find someone. Sometimes other things are more important than setting your sights on a relationship. Kate has 8 kids at a crucial age. They need her. Three of them especially need her – the two who were allegedly kicked out of school for abusive behavior and Maty whom we all saw being miserable on the show. Sometimes people have parental obligations or other family issues consuming them which prevents a relationship.
Kate may be in one of those times where she need to focus on her kids right now in my view and not focus on a man. She also needs to focus on her own personal development before she can attract any man of substance. She needs to deal with her anger towards Jon and stop trashing him verbally and vocally.
In my view she needs to get out of the media and limelight and focus on her kids now that finances are not a concern.And finally she needs to heal her relationships with her parents, siblings and Jon and most of all stop being so angry and self pitying in order to be more appealing to a man.
