Paul Walker of “Fast & Furious” Fame Dies at 40

It’s with the heaviest heart I’m reporting that Paul Walker, 40, star of the Fast and the Furious, has tragically died in a car accident.  The car he was in crashed and exploded in Santa Clarita, California at around 3:30 p.m.

According to an article in the Los Angeles Times, Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department officials on Sunday sought to sort out the circumstances of a fiery crash in Santa Clarita that left “Fast and Furious” actor Paul Walker and another man dead. Walker was apparently the passenger in a red Porsche that crashed Saturday afternoon, soon after the actor attended a charity event.  Sheriff’s officials said speed may have been a factor in the crash, which took place on a normally quiet street with a 45 mph speed limit. The Porsche was badly burned and mangled.

Witnesses said the car was fully engulfed in fire.  “When I went out there, it was just smoke. Just black smoke. I thought it was a brush fire,” Alyssa Yorton told the Los Angeles Daily News.  “It was engulfed in flames. There was nothing. They were trapped,” Antonio Holmes, who said he was a friend of Walker’s, told the Santa Clarita Valley Signal. He added the actor had been at a charity event earlier in the day. Holmes said the Porsche appeared to hit a tree and then slam into a light standard.  KTLA News reported that debris from the crash shattered a window in a nearby building.  The single-vehicle crash occurred about 3:30 p.m. in the 28300 block of Rye Canyon Loop.

Paul Walker truly shot to fame in the late 90’s with scene stealing roles in the teen flicks “She’s All That”, “Varsity Blues” and “Pleasantville”, but actually got his start in Soap Operas back in the early 90’s on the popular CBS soap “The Young And The Restless”.  Known for his dashing good looks and bad boy persona, he took both of those qualities and amplified them by turning the “Fast & The Furious” movies into a multi-billion dollar franchise along long time costars Vin Diesel and Tyrese Gibson to name a few.

Let’s just keep everything positive while his family & friends attempt to deal with this devastating loss.

According to CNN, Cory Monteith, who played heart throb Finn Hudson in the Fox hit “Glee,” was found dead in a Vancouver, Canada, hotel room Saturday, police said. He was 31.

Vancouver police said the cause of death was not immediately apparent, but they ruled out foul play.

Medical examiners will conduct an autopsy Monday.

Monteith’s body was discovered by staff members at the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel after he missed his checkout time, acting Chief Constable Doug LePard told reporters.

Monteith apparently had several people over to his room at one point Friday night, but LePard said Monteith, who had checked in July 6, was seen on hotel surveillance video returning to his room in the early morning hours by himself.

The Twitter-verse has already responded to his death, having two global trending topics of his name and #prayforlea, designed for his fiancee and fellow Glee star Lea Michele.  One of the top tweets from Demi Lovato pretty much says it best-

Let’s all remind ourselves that in this time of need to focus on his family and friends and not spend days upon weeks upon months criticizing this man who can’t speak up for himself now.  Regardless of how it happened, the world lost a phenomenal talent and was a key player in making one of the best television shows of the past decade. RIP Cory, you will truly be missed by millions of people.

Paula Deen

Happy Saturday, ya’ll!!

My, oh my!! Paula Deen has certainly been in some hot water recently..  She has been dropped by Walmart, QVC, Smithfield, Target,  J. C. Penney, & The Food Network(after 11 years!), plus Ballantine Books decided to cancel their 5 book deal with her.  I haven’t been following this particular topic, all I am aware of is that she used some inappropriate language years ago & is now being punished for it.  So, my question to you guys is… Do you think this is appropriate punishment or do you think she deserves more? Or less?  I’d love to hear from you guys!!
