Man, Rough Week.
Pina Bausch, a truly unique and powerful choreographer, passed away today at 68. I wrote a bit about her a while back. I’ve only seen one of her pieces live, “Ten Chi.” It was stunning; a special and unforgettable experience. I hope her company will keep touring with [...]
Last night was my first pilgrimage of the summer to The Hollywood Bowl. It was supposed to be Etta James backed by The Roots and Adele with the Hollywood Bowl Orchestra string section. I bought the tickets the day they went on sale. I was terribly excited. I find Adele delightful [...]
Thanks Cat, for being almost as pissed as I am that my piece of shit fake TiVo went all mind-of-its-own on me last night. I’ve yet to decide if the pretty HD picture is worth this nightmare of a DVR. Twice I told it to record. Twice it agreed. Then… Nothing. [...]
And while we’re on the subject of the lovely lady, did that dress last night look familiar to anyone? Clearly, it’s one of Cat’s faves. She is the grand Empress of the “Ain’t No Accounting for Taste” club and yet, I love her still.
I considered not blogging about this snorific episode at all then this [...]
She’s not tapping folks. We dodged a bullet. Word is she’s doing a Tyce DiBorio rehash of “Get Happy” from “Summer Stock.” It’s perfect really. The last movie Garland did before MGM canned her ass for being a pill head. She was a mess through out filming, totally high and [...]
I’m having a SoYouThinkYouCanDanceDanceRevoltion Party tomorrow night. I’m terribly excited about it. It’s the first anyone will be seeing my newly decorated apartment and I’m going to have snacks. I know. It sounds really awesome, doesn’t it? This will inevitably effect the recap-age, hopefully in a pleasurable [...]
Now I’m clear. I thought she meant an OLD FASHIONED type of Mother Theresa.
She’s holding mother fucking dry shampoo.
“You can’t just go through your life being adorable and doing reality shows and being famous for being famous.” Oh Babs. Clearly you’ve never watched the RealWorldRoadRulesChallenge.
The best part of this whole [...]
Listen, she’ll always be Joey Potter to me. Sure, Scientology is crazy cakes but I’ve never heard a bad word about either of them from people with whom they’ve actually worked. Here’s the thing though, I remember the SNL monologue in which she “tap danced” with Will Ferrel and if they’re bringing Katie motherfucking [...]
I gave a nudge toward Rich’s BlackEyedSneeze review in my SYTYCDDR post but I want to highlight a particular passage:
Fucking Fergie, whose tastelessness trumps her talent at every turn. Fucking Fergie, who manages to over-sing a chorus that demands to be over-sung (“People in the place! If you wanna get down! Put your hands in [...]
