Sunday Funday

Bringing Herself Flowers
Diane Keaton

While scrolling through my Instagram feed something caught my eye, a video of none other than Oscar winning actress Diane Keaton getting down to Flowers by Miley Cyrus!

Hence I had to take a screen shot post haste and do a, what else? Sunday Funday blog around it.

I actually was not following Ms. Keaton on IG, it was one of those things that showed up in my feed because people I follow and who follow me liked it. Well thanks Instagram your pushy ways did gain Diane (as I'm going to refer to her from now on) a new follower.

Who knew Diane was so much fun?! 

Hey, Diane call me and let's "do lunch"

Check out Diane's cooler than you'll ever be video of her cutting footloose on IG...

Sunday Funday

It's Better With A Towel (Not!)
Tom Daley

Trying to beat the heat? Well this isn't going to help, but hey it's sexy and it's Sunday Funday!
So what better way to commemorate it than spending time with Olympic Gold Medal winner Tom Daley in a sauna? I ask you and I'm not really sure why because I know you won't answer.

Look it's Tom wearing nothing but a towel in a thirst photo he posted to his Instagram page. I am sure the towel was put on to make this an IG friendly sort of post. Wanna bet he actually goes sans towel when he is in the sauna for real?

Of course you don't because guess what, we all know 100% he goes bare when he is sweating out those toxins and winding down on Sunday Funday, or any other day for that matter...

So there you have it, this & that!!!

and His Beard

Any beard sporting guys, of the literal kind, not the euphemism kind, got some Beard Advice for Mr. Cheyenne Jackson?

It seems Jackson is having to grow a beard for work. He and his husband both approve. Their kids are fence sitting on the subject, they say it's too scratchy. 

Cheyenne is currently soliciting advice from you beard wearing aficionados on the matter at hand. 

Wanna help a fellow beardo out?

Of course you do! Hit Mr. Jackson up on his IG link below. For the record, that beard is looking mighty fine Mr!

Learning To Fly

Fly Boy
Luke Evans

Hello Minions, today we are learning to fly, not literally and sort of maybe, perhaps....

Our flying lesson comes courtesy of hunky actor guy Luke Evans, he must have had a Red Bull because Luke has wings, as you can see, well sort of.

There are some many feelings I have looking at this photo, almost none of which I can share right here, right now (if you wanna know them DM me.)

But whatever feels this image of the Mighty Flying Luke stir in you, go with them, because how can one draw something negative from it? I ask you? Yeah, I knew you wouldn't answer.

Whatever...fly and be free!!!

Bleach Your Bon-Bon

Bleach Blanket Boredom
Ricky Martin

One thing you can say about lockdown is it sure brings out one's creativity in the quest to keep ourselves amused.

Case in point, Ricky Martin, decided to "Bleach His Bon-Bon" yeah I now what your thinking, get your mind out of there. He decided to bleach his hair, but not the follicles located on his head, he bleached his beard. He posted the above photo on Instagram with the caption: "When bored, bleach."

Hey when bored, find anything that keeps you entertained and happy I say. Personally I kind of like the look on Ricky, but hey, I kind of like the way he looks period, so there's that.

Once upon a time I used to bleach my hair and even though I don't have much left, Ricky has inspired my own creativity in the way of some hairy fun.

"Yes" boredom is often the source of divine inspiration and ideas. Get inspired Minions!

Monday Motivation

Coming Into Monday Like...
Halle Berry

Well I am now officially back on a diet routine as of yesterday. Meaning eating healthier and taking care of myself, it's time to shed those Pandemic pounds. So let's skateboard into the week with Halle Berry.

Halle is all you need for some health and fitness Monday Motivation. Seriously Minions I follow Ms. Berry on Instagram and have never seen her look better, in fact I think she is currently the best she has ever been. Guess what? Halle is 54 years young! I am merely one year older than she.

She truly is inspiring and very active. Honestly seeing her Instagram posts are all I need to motivate me this week and beyond.

Your mission today is to find something, or someone who inspires you to be the best version of yourself. No matter what that means to you.

Keep on keeping and bend it like Halle!

Orange Crush

On Sundays We Wear Orange
Katy Perry

"See the pretty girl in that mirror there
Who can that attractive girl be
Such a pretty face, such a pretty dress
Such a pretty smile, such a pretty me" - "I Feel Pretty" West Side Story


How are you feeling today? Do you feel pretty? Perhaps you should be crushing it in orange like Katy Perry.

Seriously I have never seen anyone make pregnancy look so glamorous (it isn't) or effortless, especially during a pandemic no less.

Well the Katy Train, orange or otherwise keeps moving during this challenging time. Girl has an album to promote and has figured out how to just do it!

Honestly she is a source of inspiration to us all, if she can manage in her condition then what are you doing?!?! 

Let's bend it like Perry - keep up with Katy if you can...

"Smile"

"Smile"
Katy Perry

"Yeah, I'm thankful
Scratch that, baby, I'm grateful
Gotta say it's really been a while
But now I got back that smile (Smile)" - Smile, Katy Perry


Katy Perry released a new single this week titled "Smile" about the power of perseverance. It seems like the anthem we could all use at present.

Not to mention the whimsical photo above with Katy dressed as a clown for our amusement.

Thus today, think of something that makes you smile, and focus on it. Trust me it is something that will make your day a little more brighter.

Remember tough times don't last, tough people do...

Current Mood

Moody
Lady Gaga
So even though there was a ban on fireworks in Los Angeles County yesterday, plenty of them were illegally ignited. Luckily no major fires were started and no one (that I've heard of) was injured. 

I actually just heard one go off as I am sitting here at my keyboard clacking away. Thus this brings me to my Current Mood.

This image of  Lady Gaga sums it up perfectly. My mood is indescribable and sort of on edge much like this Pippi Longstocking  meets Orphan look that Gaga is sporting.

You know Orphan as in the horror movie Orphan and if you don't know Pippi Longstocking Google that, OK?

Thus I think I will sit with this feeling and make it work. Time to 5th of July Minions!

The Masked Couple

Who's This Couple???
One of the great things about having to wear a mask is that it makes one harder to recognize. Especially if you happen to be famous. So let's kick off the week with a guessing game, that's correct Minions it's time to play The Masked Couple where you guess, with a clue who are the celebrities under those face coverings.

Here are the clues, he comes in handy when you need something rapped, she is such a liar. Any idea who these two are yet? One last clue they are both creeps. 

Alright if you guessed G-Eazy & Ashley Benson you guessed right! He being a rapper, she having starred in Pretty Little Liars and they collaborated on a cover of Creep by Radiohead. See that's how those clues fit together 😉

So let's get this Monday started and don't forget to wear your mask for yourself and others!

Hump Day & Chill

Pride Unicorn
Lucy Hale
Today's Hump Day & Chill moment is brought to you by the Supreme Court because of it's ruling to protect LGBTQ Civil Rights and my pick as mascot for it, Pretty Little Liars Lucy Hale as the Pride Unicorn.

While I don't quite understand why someone not getting fired for their sexual orientation was even up for debate or needed a Supreme Court ruling, I am glad the end result was on the right side of  History.

This was a bright spot in what has otherwise been a, needless to say, challenging year. Combine this with the Pride Unicorn and we have a Hump Day & Chill Pride Celebration going on!

So kick it today with your favorite Adult Beverage and celebrate the LGBTQ Supreme Court victory. Isn't it awesome that it happened during Pride Month?

"Yes" it is!

Who's That Girl?

The Name Game
Face Masks may be the best thing to happen to celebrities seeking anonymity in public. Seriously, I swear I saw a friend of mine and her BF the other day, out and about and it turned out to be a couple that merely resembled them. Hey, all I could see was them from the eyes up, so it was an honest case of mistaken identities. Luckily I realized it wasn't them before I went to engage the pair in conversation.

Thus here we have a celebrity out grocery shopping with her mask on. While I most likely would not notice most famous people out and about in their masks, this one I would, hey she's a one of a kind that always stands out. She could wear a potato sack and a her mask and I bet I would still recognize her.

So, tell me Who's That Girl? C'mon I know you know who this is....

If you guessed (As If you would you not know who this is) Miley Cyrus, you have astute observation for the obvious, congratulations!

Carry on -

Just Because...Good Vibrations

Feeling Groovy
Patrick Scwarzenegger
Just Because life is tough at present, Just Because an escape is a good thing & Just Because we really need some Good Vibrations at present: Here is Patrick Schwarzenegger hitting the beach in his bathing suit (wished it was his Birthday Suit but I guess one can't have everything can one???)

I know beaches in Southern California are open currently, although I'm not sure what the restrictions are. Lucky for us Patrick decided to cut loose and hit one, whatever the scenario is.

During these times a little eye candy is just what the Dr. ordered, thus low and behold, it shall be...

Now peel that banana and reach for that peach and get to work!

I Love A Parade!

Today's Your Birthday?
Bella Thorne & Ruby Rose
Even though there will be no Gay Pride Parades come June there will be plenty of  other parades in the form of drive by Birthday Celebrations

"Yes" It's the pandemic thing to do, keep your Social Distance and such. Check out Bella Thorne and Ruby Rose partaking in a drive by celebration.

For who I do not know, they are keeping it on the DL, down low in the age of Covid 19. Someone needs to write a novel with that title and subject matter, Hmmmmmm...

Anyway if you happen to have a Birthday today, be like Bella and Ruby keep it real, and DL.

It's Monday, correct???

Sign O' The Times

I just want your extra time and your, Kiss
Selma Blair & Ron Carlson

Hello Minions, in case you are wondering it's Monday. This photo of Selma Blair and her guy Ron Carlson sharing a kiss while waiting for coffee in Studio City, CA perfectly captures a moment in time during this point of history of the world.

I mean come on, nothing says pandemic more then a masked kiss in public between two love birds. Except for perhaps the bird that is attacking people in my neighborhood. Yeah there's a bird who obviously is aggressive about defending it's nest even though it's up in a tree and the sidewalk is three feet away from it, when people walk by the bird starts making loud nasty noises and then comes at you. It pecked me and one of my neighbors (and more I'm sure I don't know about) in the back. So there's that going on too.

Too bad it was too frantic for me to catch a photo of, so now I walk on the opposite side of the street from the side my apartment building is actually on. Meh.

Enjoy your Monday, "Yes" it's Monday, really I promise 😎

Burning Down The Gym

It's Britney, Bitch!
"All wet! Hey you might need a raincoat, Shakedown! Dreams walking in broad daylight, Three hun-dred six-ty five de-grees, Burning down the house" - Talking Heads "Burning Down The House"

Despite the state of the world, pop culture keeps turning. For some reason I am completely fixated on the fact that Britney Spears burned down her home gym (something I wished I had right here, right now honestly.)

I posted the above screen shot with Ms. Spears oh so casual tale of how the fire went down. You couldn't make this stuff up I tell you what.

Basically Brit was mood lighting her workout and things went awry and the gym was on fire.

OK, personally I never mood light anything, not even for sex so I truly can't wrap my head around this. I mean, it's only a workout and really does not involve all this prep, not ever.

Thus I will continue to ruminate on this. The real take away from the incident is: "Just say no to mood lighting"

Mic drop!

Surfin' Bird!

Surfin' Butler!
Gerard Butler
"A-well-a everybody's heard about the bird!, Bird bird bird, b-bird's the word" Surfin' Bird, The Trashmen 

You've heard of the Surfin' Bird, now there is the Surfin' Butler, Gerard Butler that is. In the midst of a Los Angeles heat wave Gerard was caught surf board handed heading to the ocean in Malibu.

Funny my understanding was the beaches had been shuttered and no bueno with regard to inhabiting them, but I'm guessing if you are a resident???

Moving on, Gerard is looking good in his quarantine scruff and unkempt hair, and then there's the matter of his wet suit, it seems to me Gerard's not so little friend would like to say "Hello" and Happy Monday!

Indeed...

I Am The "Tiger King"

Exotic
Rob Lowe
I have a confession to make, I have not seen Tiger King. Yet, because of the wonder of Social Media I feel like I have. Yeah, there's that. 

Well the media frenzy has extended to celebs dressing like Joe Exotic during their quarantine downtime. File that under things to do in Hollywood when one is bored.

My pick for the best Joe Exotic get up is Rob Lowe pictured above. It's pretty eerie, and there's a feral intensity to Rob that really shouts "Exotic."

Thus it makes perfect sense that he and the ubiquitous Ryan Murphy are developing their own version of the truth is stranger than fiction story.

Hey, sounds good to me, and aren't you happy???

Moving 909s

John Tejada
Photo:
Holly Parker
Palette 71, Moving 909s, kicks off with legendary Warp artist Plaid on remix duties. Transforming the title track, re-synthesized 909 samples and Lua scripted sequencing, Plaid builds melodies and arrangement to epic proportions in classic Plaid fashion.

John Tejada’s new EP is an homage of sorts to the sample heavy production style of the late '90s. "Limiting the options and just creating and manipulating a batch of samples is my happy place,” says Tejada. 
The title track hints back to a personal favorite, Optical’s 1997 gem, "Moving 808s." While the sound is quite different, the approach is similar: samples, editing, some filters and not a whole lot more opens up a lot of creative possibilities without too much getting in the way. Of course, the bass plays an important role. Combing through some older influences of varying styles, the production became more in line with Tejada classics like “Timebomb” and “Western Starland,” both sample collage pieces focused on groove.

The final track, "Infinity Room" also follows this production process while resulting in a slightly moodier sound
