Since we need all the levity we can get at present, yesterday Chrissy Teigen proudly announced it was the 10th Anniversary for her breast implants. "Yes" you read that correctly so she took to Instagram and Twitter with the announcement using the above photo and a caption that read: "happy 10 year anniversary to these titties and RIP to these teeth. 💕" Much to the delight of her fans and celebrity friends such as Lisa Rinna and Paris Hilton.
Might I suggest you follow Chrissy on Instagram or Twitter, perhaps both? She is a lot of fun, her sense of humor is awesome! Also she is a great cook as well. Now THAT'S a winning combo, if you ask me...
Celebrate 10 glorious years with Chrissy and her breast implants at the links below, do it and do it now!!!
In case you missed episode one, when yours truly chatted Actor Jeremiah Hahn up from filmmaker Robert Hensley's current project Family Affair, well we are now on to episode two.
"Yes" another cast member from the film was also in attendance at the grand opening of Silverback Coffee of Rwanda in Echo Park, CA.
Her name is Shannon Hemmings she portrays Charlie, she has a tale to tell... MS: So spill who do you play in Family Affair? SH: Well, I play Charlie. I can't say too much about my character. She's there, she's a happy face, a caring character. Let's just say she was really fun to play. MS: Nice. How do you know Robert? SH: I moved to Los Angeles only six months ago...
Shannon
On The Set Of "Nashville"
MS: Where are you from originally? SH: Atlanta, GA. About two weeks in I was submitting myself for things. I didn't expect anything because they say when you come out here it's hard, it's competitive. So I saw this character and I loved her and I thought "why not" I might as well audition. I was submitted and I was taped, I got the job. I got a little E-Mail, I was like "No Way!" I already booked my first job in LA! MS: Awesome! SH: When I went to the table read and got to know who these people were for the first time, it was like "This is really cool." I felt so welcomed in, so excited! It really is who you know and the connections you make, it's a really beautiful thing. MS: Congratulations! Sometimes it takes forever. SH: Yeah, thanks! I came here so grounded thinking it would take a whole year to build up my resume, get a manager, what's happened now is mind blowing! MS: Fantastic! There are so many pitfalls and it's easy to get discouraged. SH: There were those times where I wondered if it was time to go back home. I wasn't sure if I could do this (laughs) There were time when I felt really alone, it's hard to find community in a brand new place. I'm glad I've stayed strong because everything is really coming together now. MS: Nice to meet you. SH: You too! Are you on Instagram? MS: Yes. SH: Let's follow each other.

How's your quarantine going? Are you keeping your social distance y'all? Well something truly wonderful has happened despite how gnarly this is...the air quality in Los Angeles has been clean for weeks now. That's correct minions, when go outside for a walk, run or whatever I am truly getting 100% verified fresh air! 😲 In fact it's so great outdoors these days I take really long walks, I'm kind of at loathe to go back indoors. Bare witness to Pretty Little Liars Lucy Hale, that smile on her face after exiting the grocery store isn't for naught. She, like me is vibing on the good clean air. I'm telling you it's real and it's spectacular. In fact as soon as I exit the lap top I'm gonna go out and snort me some. Mic Drop! Fresh Air - https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/fresh%20air
Led by guitarist / vocalist Gavin Rossdale, alt rockers BUSH were the first post-Nirvana British band to hit it big in America. Of course, they became a hit by playing by the grunge rules -- they had loud guitars, guttural vocals, stop-start rhythms, and extreme dynamics.
Performing to a sold out crowd of 10,000 die hard fans at the MidFlorida Amphitheater in Tampa, during their critically acclaimed 2019 Altimate Tour, this 90 minute performance was filmed in 4K UHD with 15 cameras to capture the show from every angle. Produced by award-winning producer Barry Summers of Rock Fuel Media, the concert features the band's biggest hits including "Machinehead", "Glycerine", "Comedown", "Swallowed", "Everything Zen" and their newest hit song, "Bullet Holes" from the new blockbuster John Wick 3 soundtrack.
This special edition package includes a Blu-ray disc, a standard definition DVD, and a bonus audio CD of the entire concert.
In his debut film as writer-director, John Hughes immediately cemented himself as the king of teen cinema with Sixteen Candles, and in the process also introduced one of the most iconic faces of '80s Americana: Molly Ringwald. For high schooler Samantha Baker (Molly Ringwald), her 16th birthday might be the worst day of her life. Her entire family has forgotten about it due to her older sister's impending wedding; her biggest crush, high school hunk Jake Ryan (Michael Schoeffling) has discovered an embarrassing "sex quiz" filled out by Sam in which she details how she is saving herself for him; and to make matters worse, she is hounded by a relentless nerd (Anthony Michael Hall) who won't take no for an answer. But Sam's sweet sixteen isn't over yet, and before the end of the night, all her birthday wishes could still come true... Taking the rude and crude humor of the teen sex comedies that came before it and placing it within the intimately portrayed perspective of a girl's mid-teenage-life crisis, Sixteen Candles is a bombshell of 80s pop culture that continues to be debated and beloved over three decades after its release.

Cuomo shows up and it's like “Ooooh, Daddy's here.” Newsome shows up and it's like “Ooooh, likable step-dad is here.”Trump shows up and it's like “Ooooh, racist grandpa took out his dick at the bus stop.” - John Fugelsang Yeah, I wished I could take credit for this gem, but I acquiesce to comedian John Fugelsang. I follow Mr. Fugelsang on Twitter. Oddly getting my Tweet on has been a quite cathartic outlet for me during these trying times. It's the arena where I get truly politic and where brilliant minds like Fugelsang remind me not everyone is a MAGA Zombie Apocalypse wanna be. Moving on up, down and perpendicular... Post quarantine will the producers of My 600 Pound Life find me? Or do I need to call them? How does this work??? BTW - how's your quarantine going? I actually took a nap yesterday to stop eating... Vanderpump Rules is totally dreck this season In these tough times there we can always count on the Taylor Swift/Kanye West/Kim Kardashian menage. They'll be there for you. Raspberry Sherbet - that's all My favorite refrain of late? "Where's the pizza???" Stop getting creative with hard boiled eggs, I implore you!!! Just Say: Le Woof

Quarantine, quarantine, quarantine that's all I ever hear, and with good reason. Of course along with this comes the usual plethora of catch phrases. Being as today is all about having a Hump Day & Chill, let's focus on the word Quarantini shall we? We shall!!! Thus I have chosen the official Quarantini poster imbiber straight outta Absolutely Fabulous, Patsy Stone! Patsy, portrayed by actress Joanna Lumley could drink your Quarantini ass under the table. She could take the "Chill" in Hump Day & Chill to a whole other dimension, that's fer sure. While I suggest you try to remain in this dimension, might I say enjoy your down time while you can, by partaking in your favorite adult beverage. Hey, it doesn't all have to be Quarantini's and olives. Personally my favorite thing is wine when I kick it. Chardonnay & Cabernet Sauvignon to be specific, and I just was. Thus I hereby decree that today you Hump Day & Chill like Patsy Stone. That is all, WTF are you waiting for?! Hit the bottle & "Chill!" Check out some Quarantini recipes here... https://www.townandcountrymag.com/leisure/drinks/g31900654/quarantini-cocktail-recipes/
Talk about perfect timing... “American Nightmare” is Justin Utley’s first single release since his activism work in Utah helped to ban conversion therapy, the discredited practice that aims to change a person’s sexual orientation or gender expression, in the state. “The win was not only cathartic but rewarding and empowering,” he says. Utah is now the 19th state to ban conversion therapy. Utley plans to take his fight to the other 31 states. “I’ll take my guitar wherever I need to in order to keep this conversation going and get this horrific, shame-based sham of therapy banned. It’s unethical, it’s disproven, and yet so many are caught in its web of lies, inevitable failure, and suicide.”
He blames the lawmakers who blindly follow their party lines and church leaders instead of the will of the constituents who elected them. It’s one of the reasons he chose to shoot the music video for “American Nightmare” in a church (incidentally, the same church used for the Touched by An Angel series) and includes scenes with crowds in blindfolds, unable and unwilling to see the disasters that lie ahead.

There's still good in this world, Porn Hub is offering it's premium service free to the people of Italy So glad I don't have children during this time.

Happy St. Patrick's Day! I know we are all pretty much confined to our respective dwellings, but if you want to celebrate you can. Seriously, why can't you party with your bad self at home? So here is a throwback sort of Tunesday Tuesday song that I am sure is in everyone's topical minds. It's The Knack performing My Sharona. When the Corona Virus first hit I, like many of you, wondered when someone was going to parody this song and insert Corona for Sharona. Admit it, you know you did! While I have seen many memes to this effect, no one, yet has to do an actual song parody. Too soon probably since we are in the thick of it. Thus I leave you with The Knack singing one of my favorite songs of all time My Sharona. Mic Drop!
A little while back, in the day, I went to the Grand Opening of Silverback Coffee of Rwanda in Echo Park, CA. Some of the actors from filmmaker Robert Hensley's upcoming project Family Affair were there. One of them happened to be Jeremiah Hahn who portrays Martin in it. Thus I took out my smart phone hit the voice recorder app and chatted Jeremiah up about the movie, here is what transpired... MS: I don't know whole lot about Family Affair, give me some 411. JH: Well, Robert and I have been trying to work together over the years and this project really came together well. I love the character he cast me for, the therapist, he's a window into one of the lead characters. It was a lot of fun to be able to find some truth to that human being and help move the story forward by providing that window. Working with Robert is so much fun! MS: That's always fun for an actor, I've been there, done that (laughs) JH: Yeah, Robert isn't like you can only do your part a certain way he allows for an actor's creativity.
Jeremiah Hahn
Crypt TV
MS: I hear you are also on Crypt TV, which, being a horror fan, I'm surprised I didn't hear about until now. JH: Crypt TV has such a great pedigree, and they're so experimental with the different things they do. It's giving a lot of young voices a platform. MS: I like that the Entertainment Industry has become more expansive. JH: There are like 530 scripted series in production. MS: Wow! I wasn't aware there were that many. JH: You couldn't get through all of them in a year. (laughs) It's great there are so many options for everyone. MS: How do you choose what you watch? JH: If three people recommend it, then I watch it (laughs) MS: Congratulations, on everything! JH: Thanks!

East Coast US Tour Dates WithDEAD KENNEDYSin March + more dates
If an actor or a reality show host can become president and wreak havoc around the world, then surely musicians have a time honored duty of reacting to that and speaking up for regular people. Punk rock legends D.O.A. have decided to do just that. That's why you have the new D.O.A. album: Treason.
Joey Shithead Keithley, Canada's Godfather of Punk, has been getting sick of the dismaying news coming out of world capitals like Washington, Moscow, Beijing, Tehran, Pyongyang etc., so he decided to come up with D.O.A.'s musical reaction to this crap and stand up against corruption, warmongering, racism, sexism and global warming.
So here it is: Treason, it's the band's eighteenth album. It takes off in full frenzy with "All the President's Men" with Keithley exclaiming It's time to put them in the pen. Then D.O.A. quickly launches into a modern punk anthem "Wait Till Tomorrow" a look at the brutal treatment of refugees.
But never lost on D.O.A., is that part of their mantra that is punk rock humor, hence they have spawned: "It Was D.O.A." an uproarious piss take on unsuspecting musicians that will soon learn the tough lessons of the road: the D.O.A. members themselves.
D.O.A.
Of course with an album named Treason you would expect some comment on President Donald Trump. So the Men of Action have taken one of their all-time classics and come up with new lyrics. They have reworked "Fucked Up Ronnie" and the result is "Fucked Up Donald" and it's a blistering 73 seconds of mayhem!
Along the way Treason flips the corrupt system the bird with wild tunes like: "Gonna Set You Straight," "Just Got Back From the USA" and "It's Treason." There's also an absolutely ripping version of fellow Canadian Neil Young's "Hey Hey My My" where D.O.A. takes a unique approach that has anguish and fire at the same time.
On Treason D.O.A pulls no punches and nor should they. What you get is an uncontrollable punk rock riot that seems to breathe fire, the way punk was meant to be.
