SEX AND THE CITY: THE MOVIE

I bought tickets for the show tonight (at 6pm) during the early afternoon and almost all the the showtimes this afternoon to evening were sold out. Luckily I bought the three tickets for my two friends and I however; I got to the theater before they did and we got to sit in the third row. The theater was full of queens and fabulously dressed women. I wouldn't doubt that this movie makes a ton this weekend.

The movie was absolutely fantastic! I can not wait for it to come out on DVD so I can see it over and over again. I have already planned to go see it again with my friend K who is in Vegas right now on vacation. If you haven't done it yet plan on it especially if you are a fan.

The movie is full of twists and turns. If you can believe it its about 2 hours and 30 minutes long. Its perfect timing and doesn't feel as rushed as the last episode on the series was. At the end the whole theater clapped.

I must commend the writers and everyone involved with the movie. The girls were excellent and some of the other characters were excellent. I couldn't believe how fat Candace Bergen got. I wasn't sure if it was being so close to the screen, what she was wearing or if she really was that big.

Anyhow.. check it out!

MISS STARLET! MISS STARLET!

Comedian Harvey Korman, whose 40-year career included dozens of TV shows and several films, died Thursday at UCLA Medical Center, four months after suffering an abdominal aortic aneurysm ago. He was 81.

And in honor of him I have put both parts of "WENT WITH THE WIND" a skit put together on the Carol Burnett show that I personally enjoy watching over and over again. I just love what each character brought to this show. Harvey Korman played Rhett Butler and did an excellent job at that. Take a look.

HIATUS

I am going to take some time off from blogging but I wanted to let the few and near who actually read my blog (compared to my old blog "A Boy & His Toy").

I need to sort through my life and my head. I have been pulling topics out of my ass the last week and instead of it being as tragic as it has been I'm going to take some time off.

I hope to be back rested, fresh-eyed and bushy-tailed.

STICKY & SWEET

I trust everyone had a great & restful Memorial Day Weekend. I even have a tan.

I know I wasn't too much on the Madonna front but this morning I heard KRBE (my radio station of choice in the morning due to Roula & Ryan) were giving away tickets (I'm assuming on the floor). I started to call in and unfortunately finally got through right after the last caller was received. Basically they are doing a Pop Madonna Question Round-Up. I answered all the questions right this morning (of course I wasn't playing) so I'm going to be on their station like a whore on cock. I may not be completely about her new album but she is an extraordinary performer at that and plus if I get them free what else can do?

Happy Tuesday all!

WEEK(END) SEASON FINALE

Last night I saw the season finale for Ugly Betty. It had its same twists and pulls as each season finale but I guess I wasn't as shocked and freaked out as I was last season finale. Even though the writers strike put a dent in my schedule I am ready for the new season to start, which I know won't be for a while.

I'd like to close for the weekend with a clip of one of my favorite movies ADAM & STEVE with Parker Posey.

MAJOR CREEPAGE



In case you have never seen this I found this on youtube---this is a video of a "filming" of a ghost caught on film. Start looking at the chair and let me know what you think?

GREASE 2

I find it shocking sometimes when people haven't seen a certain movie. Grease 2 for instance is a favorite of mine (although the first one was a lot better) and here is one of my favorite scenes, which combines two of my favorite songs on the soundtrack. A Girl For All Seasons & (Love Will) Turn Back The Hands of Time. In case you haven't seen it its part of a talent show production and Michelle Pfieffer is acting up because she thinks her dream guy is gone.

A fun fact about this movie is the blonde is Lorna Luft known as "Judy Garland's Other Daughter".

ROCK WITH U TOUR

Janet Jackson announced on The Ellen DeGeneres Show today that after a 7-year hiatus, she’s returning to the stage for her “Rock with U” Concert Tour.

“I’m here to kick off my ‘Rock With U’ tour,” Janet shared. “Our first show is September 10. And I’ve set up a number for fans to call in and to leave what old/new songs you’d like to hear [at the concert]. The number’s 323-622-8139. Give me a call and let me know!”

The entire Ellen audience got two tickets each to Janet’s concert. You know I'm bitter about that but this will be a definite must see especially if she makes it to Houston.

THE HEART OF THE MATTER

Last night I went and visited with my good friend who is visiting Houston while getting her treatments at M.D. Anderson for her different cancers. As I have mentioned I do NOT like her boyfriend for many reasons but the top reason was his infecting her with HIV because he never told her and after being together two years she found out she has it. Obviously she is already weak enough with NO immune system and this disease can definitely kill her. So far it looks as though its not doing any harm.

Anyhow last night I showed up at their hotel and ignored him as classy as I could. I addressed him at some points but with no eye contact only because he kept talking to me any moment he could and of course I said farewell when I was leaving.

It was good to catch up with my friend since she has moved back to Dallas. We have known each other since I was 18 or 19 when we met (I'm now 28). We've been through a lot and we have been a rock for each other plus I don't have the kind of fun with anyone else that I have had with this friend. Just thinking about her not being around really hurts because facing it she is one of the few people that knows a lot about me and I still have around me. (Most of my friends over the years have moved away or have just lost contact with because well people change)

Anyhow she has a surgery today and God love her. We shall see what comes of today. They are suppose to see what part of her spinal cord is being tightened by her backbone and so they can go back later and scrape that bone with a possibility of becoming paralyzed. This was caused from radiation treatments she received when she was younger due to having Hodgkins and the tightness in the spinal cord causes this continual pain in her neck/arms. She is tired of the pain obviously and so is going through all these surgeries.

THIRD TIMES THE CHARM

So I thought I was going to see George Michael and then I really wanted to see Tina Turner but since shes not coming to Houston (despite Dallas being the turning point in her life where she left Ike) I found out Janet Jackson will also been touring this summer.

I know Madge is performing but I'm not crazy about her album nor this sticky and old slutty deal. Moving on!


More great news on the same subject it'll be more of a greatest hits kind of concert. Definitely a great idea on her behalf and you better believe I'll be attending this one. Would be smart of her to come to Houston too. We'll see what comes of it when they release the tour dates.

TEEN ARRESTED OVER PROM DRESS


Right here in my own city of Houston, Texas a 17-year old girl was arrested at her prom because her dress did not coincide with school dress code.

Who went too far?

Despite the outfit (being too tacky) not being something I would wear I think everyone is entitled to wear what they want especially to Prom where one must pay in order to attend (unlike public school).

Did school officials go too far? I think so.

What do you think? Below is youtube's CNN reporting on the issue at hand.

WHATS THIS, WHATS GOIN ON?

Former Will & Grace star Megan Mullally is set to return to television!

The Emmy Award winner will return to TV to join Alicia Silverstone in the new comedy Bad Mother's Handbook.

The show will air on ABC this fall.

Mullally has just sealed the deal to play Alicia's mother.

The show will center on Alicia as a 32 year old mother, juggling to take care of both her 16 year old daughter (played by Alia Shawkat of Arrested Development) and her 48 year old mother (Mullally).

I'm so excited to see her back on television.

MOUTH LIKE A HOOVER

Last night I was googling around online while I was watching Cruel Intentions and then I had a realization on one of the characters before he actually appeared. I waited for him to do his scene and it was confirmed. Greg O'Connell (the football stud) from Cruel Intentions...IS infact Ugly Betty's Daniel Meade (real name Eric Mabius)!!!!!!!!

I guess some of you may of already known this but I hadn't realized this until actually watching the movie again. I piled up my all-time favorite, I-can-watch-them-over-and-over dvds near my tv for easier access.

What a way to start up a Monday. Seeing Eric Mabius in his homoerotic scenes is hot especially the special features where Ryan Phillippe convinces him to give him head and then knocks him and says he's only joking. Great scene!

Happy Monday!

REMEMBERANCE: KEVYN AUCOIN

He struggled his way to the top of the professional make-up industry by emphasizing the beauty within. His motto was that it was far more important to help a woman feel beautiful no matter what, and that makeup was simply his tool for helping her discover herself. A proponent of the philosophy that every woman is beautiful within, he was one of the best-paid celebrity make-up artists in history.

He worked with hundreds of A-list celebrities like Cher (above), Janet Jackson, Tina Turner, Gwyneth Paltrow, Courtney Love and Vanessa Williams. He became a highly in-demand makeup artist, often acquiring $10,000 per session for photo shoots or award shows.

As a published author (The Art of Makeup, Making Faces, and Face Forward), he was fond of taking celebrities (and various other men & women, including his mother) and using makeup and costume (and sometimes prosthetics) to make them look like other celebrities, or like other people entirely. He transformed Tori Amos into Mary Queen of Scots, Celine Dion into Maria Callas, Liza Minnelli into Marilyn Monroe, Christina Ricci into Édith Piaf, Hilary Swank into Raquel Welch, Winona Ryder into Elizabeth Taylor, and Martha Stewart into Veronica Lake, among others. (picture to left is Lisa Marie Presley as Marilyn Monroe from book Making Faces)

Aucoin lived with his partner, Jeremy Antunes, whom he married in an unofficial ceremony in Hawaii in 2000 and thereafter referred to as his husband. He had also previously been romantically involved with Eric Sakas, who after their breakup remained close friends with him and became president and creative director of Kevyn Aucoin Beauty.

In October 2001, just one month after launching his own cosmetics line, Aucoin was diagnosed with a rare pituitary tumor. He had been suffering from acromegaly resulting from the tumor for much of his life, but it had gone undiagnosed. He died in May (7th) 2002 of kidney and liver failure due to Tylenol toxicity, due to an addiction to prescription painkillers used to treat the extreme pain from his condition. A musical homage, called "Taxi Ride," was written for him by longtime friend Tori Amos.

QUEEN MARY OF COCKS


"I am the most well-known homosexual in the world." -Elton John

A WHOLE LOTTA CRAZY

Despite it being a very ugly, cloudy day here in Houston and all the bad news I have endured the last couple days (that I have yet to share with you reader) I have received a positive, happier attitude after I woke this morning.

I have decided on giving myself little projects to keep me going and just deciding to take life slow. I guess you can say to live in the minute but not to go over board and have a Gloria Swanson moment.

Truth be told I tend to take in a little too much than I should. I tend to hold in too much when situations bother me and then like a war zone unload my entire clip. It is part of my persona and what Cancers (zodiac sign) are known for.

Anyhow I plan on being thankful for the good in my life. I should probably keep it on a list so I can read it through when I get a bit Baby Jane-ish. I went from listening to Billie Holiday yesterday to listening to my dance diva music today.

DARK KNIGHT


I just saw the above trailer for DARK KNIGHT, which is the sequel to BATMAN BEGINS. The best part of the movie is Christan Bale. I can not believe I forgot how hot he was (excluding the Machinist).


YOWZA!!! YOWZA!!! YOWZA!!!

Obviously everyone (unless you live under a rock) is aware that this was the last and completed movie by Heath Leger who plays The Joker. Based on the preview he did an amazing job surpassing what I ever saw him as an actor.

Anyhow back to Christian. HOT HOT HOT!! Check him out in other movies if you can (I have yet to see American Psycho) Reign of Fire (with Matthew McConaughey) he looks excellent in. Per the google search I see he's filming Terminator 4 currently.

TV'S SEXIEST WOMEN OF ALL TIME


So I just read this list of Television's Top 50 Sexiest Women of All Time and I was stunned with the results. I only decided to report the top 10 of course along with my commentary of each.

10. Tina Louise - Ginger from Gilligan's Island. Truly deserves this.

9. Catherine Bach - Miss Daisy Dukes herself. I guess I can see that.

8. Katherine Heigl - From Grey's Anatomy, My Father The Hero, Valentine, 27 Dresses, etc. I think shes beautiful but to top this high... geez.

7. Barbara Eden - Jeanie from I Dream of Jeanie. I don't know about sexy maybe back then. Definitely beautiful.

6. Dianna Rigg - Who?????

5. Eva Longoria - Thanks to Clairol or whatever hair coloring products shes always "claiming" to use. Just the latest "hot" latin to be or lust for.

4. Heather Locklear - Now hotness all rolled up in a bitch sauce. I love how she played the woman who Stockard Channing's character left SC for in First Wives Club and now years later her husband left her for Denise Richards. Ironic. Despite all that I agree extremely sexy and still looks fabulous.

3. Lynda Carter - Wonder Woman who by the way still looks absolutely flawless today. Lynda is beauty and grace. Definitely worthy.

2. Farrah Fawcett - Feathered hair and being the slutty Angel. Sexy slowly developed with time and I can understand this.

1. Pamela Anderson Lee (whatever she is now) - I like to call her Pamela V.D. instead of Lee. I can't believe she is no. 1. Gross. Sick. Disgusting. Hot yes but not worthy of making the top 10 unless its another topic.

Where was Julie Newmar who is WAY hotter than some of these. Any others you can think of that definitely deserved a better hot spot?

PRINCESS BRITNEY

Britney Spears' last album BLACKOUT (in my opinion) is absolutely the best album to date that the Pop Princess has released.

ITS HOT, HOT, HOT!!!!

Sources and ton of paparazzi blogs/photographers say Britney is hitting the studio and working on a follow-up album already. Aside from hitting the gym and spending time with her boys it looks like Ms. Spears is coming back.

Back to her album I love every single song on the album EXCEPT "Hot As Ice", which she could of left off and instead included the following singles she had recorded for the album but they didn't make it. I love both of these and if you care to listen to them check them out.

(1) This one would of been called "State of Grace". FYI for Non-Britney Followers the video is from "Gimme More" but set with "State of Grace".


(2) This one would of been called "Over To You Now"... its hot. FYI for N-B-F the video is a series of her videos compiled to create the illusion.


Seriously if you haven't checked it out its really a good album especially if you're a fourteen-year old girl at heart deep inside like I am.

A great weekend to all and to all a get laid!

PROUD MARY KEEP ON BURNIN'

Tina Turner, 68, Hitting the Road Again

Filed Under: Music News
CHICAGO (May 1) - Tina Turner says she's hitting the road again for her first tour in the United States in seven years.

The 68-year-old singer announced on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" that it will begin Oct. 1 in Kansas City. Tickets for Turner's tour go on sale May 12.

The R&B legend appeared with singer-actress Cher, 61, on an episode taped Saturday in Las Vegas before a crowd of 4,000 people. The broadcast is scheduled to air May 8.

Winfrey asked both women how they feel about getting older in show business, according to remarks released Wednesday in advance by Harpo Productions.

"I think it sucks," said Cher.

"That number doesn't mean a thing. It just doesn't," said Turner.
