Regina's Top 20 Madonna Songs
2JvK3U2gpsQ 18. Live To Tell The lead single from True Blue and one of her defining ballads IMO. I do like me a Madonna ballad. The song was a #2 here and a #1 in America and the video for it has her looking a lot like Marilyn Monroe. A really powerful and intoxicating ballad, with some of her best lyrics and vocals. The performance from the COnfessions Tour has become infamous due to her wearing a crown of throns and being strapped to a giant cross for most of it. I have included it above and urge you all to watch it. 1CWXjk40yWE 17. American Life Oddly enough, this song comes from the album American Life. It also has a lot in common with the video for Live To Tell in terms of subject matter. The song tackles the theme of the American Dream and the general attitudes of the country at the time, something that holds a smuch power now as it did in 2003, one of the reasons why I love it. I also adore her rap. Not even sorry. The original video features a ilitary fashion show that combines with scenes of war and destruction. It was scrapped and swapped with a video of flags, due to the invasion of Iraq and backlash it recieved,

Even on the production side. Sense this will be like Hilary Duff's last album where it's kinda split between country-ish songs and more traditional pop based on these credits.

Regina's Movie Countdowns
Top 10 Actors [part (ii)] 5. Katherine Heigl Queen of Rom Com. I never bothered with Grey's Anatomy so know next to nothing about her character there, I know and love this woman for her various Romantic Comedy movies. 27 Dresses is an essential movie for any movie buff and Life As We Know It balances a tough subject with a funny and sweet story. She does serious roles too, one of my favourite movies by her is Jenny's Wedding which sees her dealing with the aftermath of telling her parents she is marrying a woman. Another goodie is Jackie & Ryan, where we get to hear her sing too. Like with Melissa, I feel like Katherine has a way of picking you up with her cheery and welcoming portrayals of characters, and she plays my all time favourite fictional character, Stephanie Plum, in the movie adaption of the book One For The Money and now i always picture her when I read the series. 4. Jessica Chastain Flame haired goddess. Jessica has played a bunch of tough female roles, something that cinema needs more of, and she totally own every scene in every movie she does. She also has a huge emotional range and crafts characters that you can't help but love and support her. Take The Help for example, who didn't root for Celia or cry buckets when Minnie finds her on the bathroom floor (a series of scenes ever more sad in the book)? I have already mentioned The Zookeeper's Wife in my post for Daniel, but it's such a good movie and the two fo them steal the show. Despite being on opposing sides, they have an itense chemistry that makes both performances even more brilliant. Jessica has also proved she is a badass, she is the best thing about The Huntsman: Winter's War, and her accent is flawless. 3. Chris Evans Captain America and Human Torch in one, now THAT is talent. Chris is a perfect example of an actor, rather than just a movie star. He is known for playing superheroes, but he has made some really good and solid choices for other movies to let his star shine. Alongside some nice fluffy romantic movies (What's Your Number?, The Nanny Diaries and Playing It Cool) he has done some gritty dramas (Injustice) and emotional drama (Gifted) He doesn't limit himself and this has allowed him to become even more of a terrific actor and cemented himself as one of my all time favourites. 2. Jennifer Lopez Main Queen of Rom Coms. Not only is she one of my favourite singers, J-Lo dominates my movie collection. I always feel a sense of safety when I tune into one of her movies, I know I'm going to get a well rounded and emotive performance and a character I will be cheering on for the next hour or so. Everyone knows her for her romantic movies like Maid In Manhattan and The Wedding Planner, but it's in movies like Enough and Lila & Eve that really show off why Jennifer should be praised more for her acting. Enough shows her playing a battered wife who grows into a fierce and powerful warrior woman who can defend herself. Meanwhile, Lila & Eve strips her of all her glamour and really show show easily she can pull off a gritty and serious role. It's disheartening to see so many people rain down on her because she does not deserve it. 1. Amy Adams Well who ELSE? I mean I have already done a Top 10 of my fave of her movies, so it doesn't need much explaining here. Amy is good. Amy is great. Amy is GOD.

Regina's Movie Countdowns
Top 10 Actors [part (i)] I was gonna do a seperate list for men and women but then I got bored and decided it was better to combine them, especially when I saw how many more females there were. I'm basing this list on how much I love these people as actors and their talents. Not so much their looks or personality, although sometimes that can enhance their performances. So let's get this bitch on the road. 10. Shawn Ashmore Fact fans, Shawn wa sone fo my very first celeb crushes. Aww. Anyway, the Canadian hunk is best known for playing Iceman in the X-Men movies which is where I first got to know him. However, it is his role in the show The Following where he really got to show off his acting chops and cement himself in this list. Playing a tough but funny FBI agent he is easily the best character in the show. He showed off his comedy skills in the criminally underrated Cadet Kelly too which is legit one of the best movies ever. 9. Melissa McCarthy Queen of the raunchy Rom Com. Easily one of the best comedic actresses out there, Melissa got her big start in Gilmore Girls, but I love her most for the iconic show Samantha Who? After a role in Bridesmaids (which she was OSCAR NOMINATED for) she really shot off and took on major roles. The best of these is easily Spy, and Tammy is a close second for me. She has done more serious stuff too and really shines in St Vincent. When you need a pick me up, putting one of her movies on is a safe bet. 8. Sandra Bullock Oscar winner Sandra Bullock is amazing in any movie she's been in, and I should know, I have seen almost every single one. She can do comedy (Miss Congeniality), she can do romance (Hope FLoats), she can do emotional (The Blind Side), she can do drama (Murder By Numbers) and she....did All About Steve, but nobody is perfect. I have more Sandra movies than I do of any other actor here bar two (spoilers!) and have seen them all multiple times. The mentioned Murder By Numbers is essential, not least because then boyfriend Ryan Gosling is in it too. Get it Sandy. 7. Sebastian Stan WHAAAAT!? Sebby not at least top 3? Nope, not a typo, he really is at #7. And I shall tell you why; he hasn't done many movies that are actually any good. He is a damn talented actor, but some of his choices are.....not good. The Covenant fits nicely into the "so bad it's kinda good" category. The Captain America movies are all obviously amazing and he is genuinely good in The Bronze (and totally naked) but he is either not featured enough or just not given a good part in other movies to compete with the top 6 here. His work on television shows like Kings, Political Animals and the mini series Labyrinth make up a big bit though as he is superb in them. With more movies like I, Tonya he can easily rise up the ranks. 6. Daniel Bruhl One of the newer (to me anyway) actors here, Spanish-German God Daniel is mostly known in this country for playing Nazis or other kinda grim German characters, such as in Inglorious Basterds, The Zookeeper's Wife and Captain America Civil War (in the movie he's not German but the character he is based on is). That being said, he has played more positive characters in movies like Rush. Even his character in Inglorious Basterds has a kind of charm to him that you kind of like him. It's this empathy that he makes you feel in many of his roles that draws me back to him and his movies. The Zookeeper's Wife is my fave of his movies, even thoough he goes a bit evil in it, I still really like his character. Also worth noting is his role in Alone In Berlin, not a Nazi but a policeman, albeit a slightly sympathetic one, he really shines there too. He's also a total DILF.

Regina's Top 20 Madonna Songs
jCSEM5xpIx0 20. You Must Love Me First off we have a song from Madonna's role in the musical Evita. The song was specifically written for the film version by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice and Madge undertook vocal lessons in order to train her voice for this musical. Clearly they worked as this is one of her most emotive performances and one of her best ballads. The song was a top 10 hit here in the UK and won the Golden Globe and Oscar for Best Original Song. ZGxTeSb1VCk 19. Gone Popping over to the Music album next. The closing track for the album not including bonuses and what a closer. A slow guitar led ballad, the song lets her voice shine. William Orbit's production kicks in after the first chorus and really lifts the song up. This acoustic/electronic sound would feature heavily on American Life, this song bridges the gap between the two albums really well and has some really powerful lyrics too.
