Black Magic Lopez

To my way of thinking, Jennifer Lopez is a third rate singer and a fourth rate actress, who just happens to be very beautiful, so I could never quite figure out what the draw was. I mean, what is it with men? I'm hard up at times, but even at my worse I don't spend my time or money on such minimal talent. Except to wonder, what the hell gives here?

Well, as luck and Witchvox would have it, I may have stumbled upon the answer. Jennifer Lopez is, according to her ex-husband Ojani Noa, a practitioner of the religion of Santeria, as well as the even darker Brujeria. Both of these sects, similar to voodoo, involve the veneration of ancient African deities, brought over by black Carribbean based slaves, who disguised their deities as Catholic saints.

In the meantime, it involves animal sacrifice, such as chickens and goats, and ritual spirit possession.

Noa was earlier paid 150,000 dollas to keep silent after the divorce, but he has been lately anything but as he divulges how Lopez has used her practices in order to control all the men she has become involved with, including Sean "Puff Daddy" Combs.

From there, it only gets stranger. Remember the tediously constant stream of "news" about "Bennifer"? Yeah, Ben Afleck was supposedly under Jennifers magical influence as well. He even has intimated the reason for the sudden breakup betwen the two. It was at the instigation of her spiritual advisor, one Merle Gonzalez, who advised her there was a bad aura that hovered over the relationship, and she should break it off, which she then did.

He must have seen the same episode of Entertainment Tonight that gave me the dry heaves.

Having participated in Voodoo rituals and finding little wrong with the practice of animal sacrifice (which in most cultures, unlike in Old Testament law, involves consuming the cooked meat of the sacrificed animal afterwards, thus making it about as immoral as the act of any local butcher), I can't say J-Lo's religious proclivities bother me very much. (And I like her music alright and a couple of her movies. And yeah, she's damn, damn, DAMN hot.) It's a shame she's so f-ing superstitious about it, if this report is accurate. But that's not really unusual . . .

Her ex-husband might be exxagerating a lot of this, if not making it all up, but the thing that struck me about it was her use of Santeria or Brujeria t ocontrol the men in her life. If thisis true, Afleck may never know how lucky he is she ended it.

I still say she never would have made it as an entertainer if not for her looks, plus she was able to get in bed, figuratively and probably literally, with the right people.

Almost no one gets to become an entertainer without good looks. Especially being a pop singer and sometimes leading lady!

SecondComingOfBast said...

I don't believe that. For one thing I can think of two or three leading ladies that are uglier than crap, in my opinion. I just can't think of their names right now, but one of them was in "Cold Mountain". But she's a good actress.

I don't have anything against good looks, by the way, I just think their talent should be at least the equal of their looks. Otherwise I don't waste my time or money on them.

Terrible singer, fair actress and good dancer, and more!

SecondComingOfBast said...

Well, she is beautiful, which is a gift that takes no talent, and I grant she's a good dancer-everybody has to be good at something-but a fair actress? What's definitely not fair is that someone of such inconsequential talent would be promoted over so many other talented people that don't have the connections. I was about to say she's probably a terrible witch too, but on the other hand, she might be quite good, that could explain quite a bit.

Fondfire: check the rolling stones. Those are a bunch of dudes. And yeah, you do likes you some latin ladies, eh?

So she cast a spell on people to like her? Hm. Doubtful. Too much hocus-pocus. I think that people are just blinded by the jiggling mounds of fat on her body - the boobs and butt. It's hypnotic and trancelike to watch the go.

SecondComingOfBast said...

Well, now Autogato, what you don't realize is that music and dance have a long standing in occult, magical, and ceremonial religous practices, so it does fit, actually. The hula, for example, was at one time said to be a ritual dance that could be used for a variety of purposes.

Dancing today also plays a big role in some modern pagan practics, as does instrumental music. This is true not only of group, or coven practices, but in private individual rituals as well. It can be a meditative aid and aid in visualization techniques, energy building, etc.

So J-Los skills actually fit in quite well with the concept of magic. I just wish she was actually good at some of them.

But even at her level, what is important is that any performer, or group of musicians, feed off the energies of their audience, to a very real degree, and the fans in tune respond with ever greater outpourings of emotions, until there is a real bond formed between performer/s and audience.

And that is the vital essence of magic.

You'd think if she does complicated rituals and spells, she'd also be able to keep her roots colored. http://www.sarahxdylan.com/weblog/images/image27.jpg

Nicole Kidman and Renee Zelweger are both damn hot, in my opinion. So, I still maintain that most people with lots and lots of fame (at least, the kind that involves on-screen appearances) tend to be quite attractive. Or they play somebody's goof-ball friend on a sit-com. (And most of those people are rather hot, too.) I think people who are hotter than 85-90% of everybody are beautiful. So, uh, basically, you don't have to be prettier than you're likely to encounter in real life to be a famous entertainer, but you have to much higher on the curve than most. And quite a lot of them are more attractive than 99% of us.

autogato, I don't have a particular predilection for any ethnicity or racial group. (I have in the past, but all those fetishes evaporated some time in my twenties . . . Probably a direct result of getting to know people in these groups.) J-Lo is just hot. ;-) She can cast whatever positive gri-gri she wants onto me . . .

I agree with you on Nichole Kidman, she and the look of the movie in ads was the only reason I saw "Moulin Rouge" which was roughly two hours of my life I'll never get back. But she was the one bright spot in it, and yes, she's hot. Zellwigger was who I was thinking about. If I passed her on the street I wouldn't give her a second look. But she is a good actress, which to me is all that's realy important.

Meowkaat, I think the roots of her hair is of minimum interest anyway, to guys, most of the time their eyes seldom gravitate above her waist.

fondfire said...

Do you honestly think I'd go, "Babe, those roots are just too much today . . . I just can't even bear to look at you . . ." Hahaha!

I doubt I'd even notice it to begin with, and if I did, no, it wouldn't make any difference to me either, nor I doubt anyone else.
