Fangirl Friday: Logan Crosby

 Heyo! First Friday of the year AND the first Fangirl Friday of 2025! I figured why not write about an artist last year who quickly became a favorite. This week, I am rambling about my country boy, Logan Crosby who ranked in my top 10 artists of 2024 in my SpotifyWrapped!

If you are unfamiliar, Logan Crosby is a new country artist who sings so incredibly. He has won my heart because he's such a sweetheart online with his fans. He's got himself a lifelong fan in me. I found Logan last February when I was binge-watching Claim to Fame. As you may know, if you've been reading the past few posts of this blog, I am obsessed with the Jonas Brothers and their family. So I decided to watch the show hosted by Kevin and Franklin Jonas. For quick context, Claim to Fame is a reality game show where the contestants are relatives of celebrities and if their relative is identified by another contestant, they are eliminated.

HONESTLY, since episode one, I flip-flopped with Logan. A handsome country boy with a nice accent will always win me over, but I had to be very cautious because he made it clear he was a good Baptist boy from a small town in Georgia. I'm a queer, trans, Puerto Rican from New York who has been burned by cute country boys before in real life and parasocially.

Logan first won me over when he performed "If Jesus Was a Cowboy" at the talent show in Claim to Fame. I love this song with my whole heart. I cannot explain what about his voice captivates me the way it has. I just love his voice, his music, and I've come to love him as a fan.

Then in Claim to Fame, they had a fashion show and everyone was assigned a specific item of clothing or accessory. Logan's was a black cowboy hat and I IMMEDIATELY knew his relative was Jason Aldean. I've never been a fan of Aldean, but at least we know talent runs in the family.

Full disclosure: I used to LOVE country music. Watched the CMAs every year with my mom. Luke Bryan was my guy, but when the USA got a lot more politically polarizing with the 2016 election I disconnected with every country artist I previously enjoyed because I didn't want to be disappointed by any of them. But I've been wanting to get back into country music and Logan saw to that. So thanks, Logan!

I further fell for Logan throughout his season of Claim to Fame which I think I watched in three days. After I finished, I looked him up on Spotify and I have been hooked ever since, I've kept up with his career and got to see him release his first album last September. He's really hands-on with his fans and seems to be very appreciative of the people who support him, which I absolutely love. I think that's going to help him become very successful.

As of the time of writing this post, my favorite song of his is "After All" but it changes every so often. I'm kind of glad I caught him toward the beginning of his career and will continue to support him as long as I can. I'd love to see him live one day

If you end up becoming a fan of his after this post PLEASE follow him on TikTok - assuming TikTok didn't get banned in the USA (I'm writing this in December). He posts covers on his account and he always knocks them out of the park. But I admit I may be biased because I am absolutely entranced by his voice.

I PROMISE there will be a Kinda Review of his debut album, 2019, but I cannot give an ETA when I'll write and post it.

NOW in the not-so-impossible case of Logan coming across this post and reading it: Hi! Happy New Year! Hope you and your family are doing well. Thank you for making incredible music. Thank you for getting me back into country music. I am truly a fan of yours. I meant it when I commented on your TikTok that despite having left the church, I would listen the hell out of a gospel album if you released it. Can't wait to see what the future holds for you. I know you JUST released your debut album, but I'm already hyped for your next project. 

Please check out Logan's music. I know country music is an acquired taste for some, but give him a chance. He deserves a chance and he just might win you over.

Why Blue is the Real Villain of Blue's Big City Adventure

Okay, so maybe "villain" isn't the right word. Blue is more like the antagonist. This post is about the Blues' Clues & You movie Blue's Big City Adventure. So there will be spoilers. If you have Paramount+, it's only an hour watch. I promise it is worth the watch if you have watched Blue's Clues in any capacity. Blue's Big City Adventure poster If you were born in the 90s or early 2000s like me then you most likely watched the original Blue's Clues show hosted by either Steve (Steve Burns) or Joe (Donovan Patton). I have an older and a younger brother, so I got to experience both. However, MY host was Steve, and I am a Steve fan til the day I die. I have Blue's Clues & You playing in the background as I write this post because I realized I haven't watched a single episode of the new series despite watching the movie 6 times. I cannot stress enough how much I love Blue's new design. She looks so much fluffier. The original Blue...

Fangirl Friday: Deleasa

 Heyo! Happy Friday! It's that time of the week when I ramble about someone I love! Today's subject is DJ and producer, Deleasa. His name is Mike Deleasa and while I normally refer to my subjects by first name in these posts, I will be referring to him by his stage name, Deleasa. NOW to understand how I became a fan of Deleasa, we have to go all the way back to 2012, when Kevin and Danielle Jonas' reality show, Married to Jonas  premiered. I bet you're wondering what does this guy have to do with the Jonas Brothers? Deleasa is actually Danielle's brother, making him Kevin's brother-in-law. He was featured in the reality show and I ended up falling in love with him. He was actually my parasocial "rebound" from Joe. You can read all about my parasocial breakup with Joe in my Fangirl Friday about him . But enough about the Jonas Brothers. That's not why we're here. Plus I've already written 30k words about them on this blog. However, I am for...

That Time Rod Stewart Found Other Ways of Doing Cocaine

 Heyo! Happy Monday! This week's That Time... is a doozy. If you're a classic rock fan or a fan of Rod Stewart, you probably know exactly what this post is about. This one is a short one, but an interesting one. So bear with me. Of course need to put a warning about drug use. There are plenty of other posts that you are more than welcome to check out if this isn't your thing. If you are unfamiliar with Rod Stewart, let me introduce you to the ICON! He's a rockstar who also has a few pop bangers. I grew up with his music and can't remember a time in my life without his music. The first song I think of when he pops into my head is "Do Ya Think I'm Sexy?" . I know it's the most basic song of his, but I have fond memories listening to the song on the radio when I was a kid. He's also dabbled in a few bands, but I am more familiar with his solo work than his bands. Though check out his band, Faces. In 2012, Rod released his autobiography, Rod: The A...
