Multiple Personality

This song moved me. And Carolee Carmello is so fab she makes me unashamed to love musical theater. And cabaret. And singing. And heartfeltedness.

Enjoy:

I really don’t know what’s going on over there in France. Don’t they know that there’s supposed to be a degree of covertness when applying the “sex sells” formula? Mais non.

And the bear is a little too buff and unclad for me. I guess I don’t go for bears. But the dancing’s pretty good…

There aren’t that many things that leave me speechless. But this ad for French television from the soft drink company Orangina is so weird on so many levels. And then it’s gay. (more…)

This is going to be one of those spiritual-philosophical posts, so forewarned is fore-whatevered. I just watched the finale of “Lost” again. It’s a good thing I’m writing, because I’m speechless.

I believe I made an entry after this first aired, and I don’t believe I understated its impact, emotionally and spiritually.

Very ’60s, very French New Wave. Love it.

Yeah, I know…how freakin’ superficial of me.

Okay, now that La Pequeña Amy Winehouse’s videos have been removed from YouTube (bastards!), there is solace to be had with…Old Lady Gaga.

Words can hardly describe…Enjoy: (more…)

I watched five of the clips from last week’s “So You Think You Can Dance” like seven times. Some crazy good stuff.

And here’s something altogether different, though dancey in its own way. I was never a huge fan of “Newsies,” but I do like it like this. Enjoy: (more…)

Well, who’s yer daddy? I guess I called tonight’s cast-off, din’t I? Alexie was much more appealing in her tribute clips than she was dancing in competition, so buh-bye sweetie. Not that that tapper girl is all that much a step up. Cristina, on the other hand, deserves to stay around a while.

I lost my beloved sister last Thursday. Here is the eulogy I wrote:
