Let's Get Fired Up!

Let's Get Fired Up: So it may be a corny phrase chanted by hundreds of cheerleaders across the globe, including myself, but it has this unparalleled ability to "get you fired up."

For me there are a handful of songs that have the same effect. "So Far So Great" by Demi Lovato; "I Believe" from the Honey Soundtrack; "Revolution" by the Beatles; "In this City" by Iglu & Hartly; and the list could go on and on...

But this week on particular song is really revving me up and keeping me going -->

"I'm Coming Out" by Diana Ross:



Love this clip cause her entrance is epic and there is even a little shout out to MJ thrown in there...RIP

What song get's you "fired up?"

If I were a movie star...

So I went to see Terminator Salvation this weekend with my Dad. It was an action packed flick with very little plot line but high levels of entertainment and Christian Bale so I have very few complaints. There was a woman in the movie who "kicked butt" in one scene and it got me thinking about women's roles in action movies. 

There have been some fabulous women "butt kickers" over the years. Renee Russo in Lethal Weapon 3; Angelina Jolie (although I'm not her biggest fan) she definitely kicks butt in Mr. & Mrs. Smith, Tomb Raider and Wanted; Jennifer Lopez in Enough; Lucy Liu, Drew Barrymore and Cameron Diaz in Charlie's Angels; Uma Thurman in Kill Bill; and finally Moon Bloodgood in Terminator Salvation. 

The list could go on forever but the bottom-line is if I were a movie star I'd "kick butt" in action movies! What would you do? Who would you be?
