Glowing by Solar

I read this article and it made my almost cry. It's just an extremely touching story that makes you thankful for everything that we have in this country. And also should make us feel a little shame at the life in excess so many of us lead.

poor poor Lindsay Blow-hand.


Well looks like our poor little Lindsay Blow-hand has been arrested... again. Atta girl! Thank you for making the bad girl image acceptable to young girls everywhere. Yes you miss Blow-Hand and Miss Shitney Shears and Paris "Hoo-ha" Hilton have really showed young impressionable girls to be skanky, dirty, drunk hos, all while wearing Prada. Brava. Bravo. Bravissimo! Lindsay getting arrested almost tickled me as much as Paris' article in People magazine titled: My Time Behind Bars. What?!?!?!? Good Christ People! I mean I'm sure she has so many words of wisdom to all us peasants about her excruciating 23 days behind bars. Gasp! Is anyone else over it? I mean I still like to hear about it because it makes me giggled... oh wait I guess that's why people want to hear about it. Never mind. Well, here's wishing Blow-hand a speedy trial and hope that the blowjobs that have kept her in show business can keep her out of jail.

Does anyone else miss the Lindsay that helped make Mean Girls won of the best movies ever? Maybe it's pod people who have taken over her and made her into the Shit Show we see before is now. It's alright to party and have fun but gurl, keep those panties on and for Buddha's sake pay someone to drive you! Aren't you a millionaire?

25 Cent


I think I saw 50Cent's cousin while I was in NYC. He should really help his family out, I mean he is the new spokeswoman for Vitamin Water. Every good thug needs his Vitamins!

Xanadu on Broadway! Seriously.


Yes it's true! Xanadu that epic movie that almost effectively killed Olivia Newton-John's career and did signal the end of the movie musical (until Moulin Rouge & Chicago brilliantly revived them!). Call that movie bad, call it awful, call it what-you-will, I'll just say I love it. The music is the best thing from that movie but come on who doesn't want a bunch of muses coming to life from a wall mural dancing around to E.L.O. while lined with a neon glow?

I spent countless hours watching that movie as a kid. My sister and I would re-enact the whole movie and have fights on who got to be Olivia or the black girl with the nub on top of her head in that infamous "I'm Alive" music sequence. Well it was like a dream come true to hear that they were bringing Xanadu to life again... and on BROADWAY!

I saw the musical this past Tuesday in NYC and it was amazing. Brilliant! They managed to make a parody of the movie but still remain true to the story. I did not stop laughing the entire time! It was like my wildest dream come true! Only I wish I had the genius to write this (** side note: I have ALWAYS thought they could make an amazing musical out of this!). They only used about five lines from the actually movie, watch it and you'll know why! But they used all of the amazing songs written by John Farrar and Jeff Lynne. Plus they added a few other songs written by them that weren't in the movie like: Have You Never Been Mellow and Evil Woman!

The cast was divine. Kerry Butler was magnificent as Kira! She got it, just perfectly. Of course the scene stealer of the entire play was Jackie Hoffman. She made me laugh just standing there! Her partner in crime, Mary Testa, was equally as funny! The night we saw it Curtis Holbrook was playing the part of Sonny because the original Sonny broke his leg during rehearsal. He was adorable and did a great job! Everyone in the cast was superb. If you get a chance to see it, GO!

There were so many priceless lines but here's one:

Sonny: I want to build a roller disco!

Kira: How timeless!

BRILLIANT!!!!!!
