Current Feeling: Euphoria!

I Never Promised You A Rose Garden
Sydney Sweeney

OK, by now you all know I am an avid watcher/fan of the HBO series Euphoria. One particular aspect of it I enjoy is how literal the title is. The show dips in and out of consciousness via Zendaya's Rue Bennett.

Last night's episode culminated in an amazing montage that bounces from character to character observing their individual crises via Rue's drug induced lens. 

The most stunning for this guy was the vision of Cassie (Sydney Sweeney) the heartbroken heartbreaker trapped in her vanity surrounded by garlands and flowers.

If you are a Euphoria fan you will understand the power of this image in the context of the show. If not well, that's fine it's still a powerful vision.

Can you believe it's the last day of January 2022?! 

Have a Euphoric week!

Sunday Funday

Fatherly Advice
Skeet Ulrich & Melissa Barrera 

Caught this behind the scenes photo of Skeet Ulrich and Melissa Barrera on the set of Scream having a Father/Daughter moment. Well sort of, Melissa plays Sam Carpenter who is the daughter of Skeet's psycho killer Billy Loomis from the original Scream.

Got it? Groovy! I assume at this point the bit of information contained above about the current Scream movie is not a spoiler, if it was my bad???

Anyway I love behind the scenes photos as they tell their own story and it's super duper fun to see the actors engaging with one another in between takes.

Hence Sunday Funday amusement for all, from me to you and the WWW to me. Do you follow? Of course you do...

Time to put on your best Sunday Ghostface!

One Night Only

Me, Margaret & Lucia

Last night I did something I, like most of you, rarely do. I went to a live show of comedy and music. Margaret Cho & Friends to be exact.

The one night only to do happened at Largo @ The Coronet, courtesy of my friend publicist extraordinaire Ken Phillips 

You know the old adage "laughter is the best medicine?" well I am here to tell you I researched this last night and it truly is!

Me & Ken

Due to pandemic protocols masks and vaccination cards were required to enjoy the evening. 

And guess what Minions?! A fun time was had by all!!!

Whatever you do today with your bad self be sure it includes laughter, it is something we all need during these, shall we say, interesting times.

Mic Drop!

Film Buff Friday: Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs

With all of the buzz about the upcoming Disney live action re-do of Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs and the push back on it from actor Peter Dinklage ( https://variety.com/2022/film/news/peter-dinklage-snow-white-remake-1235161936/ ) -

I think it's time to revisit the pioneering animated film from the Disney vaults via my buddy Jay Jacobson's Classic Movie Blog.

Michael's Musings

Mullholland Drive?
Michael Shinafelt

I'm in a Mullholland Drive state of mind Minions. "Yes" David Lynch's Hollywood tale is very much my vibe at present. While I understand this is ambiguous, that is precisely the point.

Silencio indeed...

You wake up seeing Jason from Friday the 13th standing in your bedroom, what would you do???

Watched the four part CNN documentary on Marilyn Monroe, excellent!

If it didn't come from me it's not true, but you already knew that

How to fix someone: 1) You can't

The amount of people who still have their Christmas decor up is a good indicator that collectively we are not OK

All The Colors Of The Rainbow. I'll simply leave this here...

You sound like you're navigating a Twitter thread, the more you know

Today, not being Friday, is a scam 

Woman Crush of the Week - "You Can't Sit With Us" The women of Halloween Ends l-r Kyle Richards, Jamie Lee Curtis & Andi Matichak currently filming in Savannah, GA 

Thanks for teaching me the meaning of the word plethora, it means a lot!

Anyone else think they were desperate for a storyline on Vanderpump Rules and that whole James & Raquel engagement was a sham raise your hand ✋

Time to wake up

Why is there waiting period for women who need abortions, but not one for men who want to start podcasts???

Just tell me where it hurts, baby

Hump Day & Chill

White Lines
John Cena

While channel surfing I attempted to watch The Suicide Squad on HBO, attempted being the key word. I eventually turned it off. This being stated there was a bright spot in the opus that actually made me stand at attention. The scene in the jungle where John Cena was sporting nothing but his Tighty Whities. 

This sight as you can see is definitely Hump Day & Chill material Minions.

Heck John Cena wearing basically anything is an HD & C subject 24/7, but nobody sports a pair of white briefs (and fills them out) quite like John. Not even close, fight me on it!

I propose we say three John Cena's and Hump Day & Chill right here, right now. Because on a personal note, I feel the chorus of Born To Hand Jive coming on...

Pants on the ground!!!

Dark Lady

"She Dealt Two Cards, A Queen And A Three..."
Chrissy Teigen 

"Dark lady played black magic 'til the clock struck on the 12

She told me more about me than I knew myself" - Cher, Dark Lady  

So's here's Chrissy Teigen out and about in Los Angeles attired head to toe in black, naturally. Well OK, not perhaps naturally per se, but looking good.

For some reason the the song Dark Lady by Cher sprang to mind when I saw this photo. 

I mean seriously, couldn't you see Chrissy in New Orleans fortune telling with cards in this outfit? I sure can and perhaps she has a black cat for effect.

Hold on I'm getting a vibration from looking at Ms. Teigen, it says you are all going to seize the day and make it yours.

Dark Lady indeed!!!

Current Mood

Knowing Me, Knowing You
Christopher Meloni, Dylan McDermott & Tamara Taylor

Is it my imagination or has Law & Order: Organized Crime finally got into it's groove? No it isn't my imagination at all I'm happy to say, and I just did.

The whole Elliot Stabler, Richard Wheatley obsessing over each other thing is giving me chills that are multiplying.

Bear witness to this still from last weeks episode. Nothing stalker like about that...Not!!!

Going into another unpredictable week of 2022 this is my Current Mood. What mood you say? Unpredictable and somewhat on the edge is what's happening in the world at present. This photo captures that to perfection.

So gird your loins Minions and get ready for the last week of the first month of 2022. Try not to let the rhythm get you, capice?!

Let Them Eat Pie!

Can't You See What I See?
Britney Spears

Today in case you haven't figured it out, is National Pie Day, Yay! My personal favorite is cherry. 

When this day appeared on the calendar straight outta the WWW my first thought was Britney Spears from her iconic video If U Seek Amy. Honestly considering all that is happening in Britney world I am sure that also brought this image from said song to the forefront of my consciousness.

"Love me, hate me, say what you want about me, But all of the boys and all of the girls are begging to if you seek Amy" - Britney Spears, If U Seek Amy

Hey the lyrics are pretty on point timeline wise, no? "Yes" they are...!

So join me and "It's Britney Bitch" and celebrate pie by eating one, putting peeps in their place with the utterance "Let Them Eat Pie!" or by simply smashing one in someone's face.

Who said National Pie Die was bereft of levity? Not this guy!

Celebrating 50! "American Pie"

Grammy-winning Songwriters Hall of Fame member Don McLean celebrates the 50th anniversary of his global hit “American Pie” reaching #1 on the Billboard chart, where it stayed for four weeks! To commemorate the anniversary, McLean has coined his international 50th Anniversary “American Pie” World Tour which will visit multiple destinations in N. America, UK/Europe, and Australia!  

American Songwriter discusses the oft-debated meaning of “American Pie” here. And CBS News Radio’s Steve Futterman caught up with McLean recently and shared this story with their listeners.
 
“I was writing songs and started singing ‘A long, long time ago’ right through ‘til the day the music died… I can still remember how that music used to make me smile…’ on and on right that day - just that whole thing right into the tape recorder. And I said, ‘Man, what is that?? That is so neat.’ I realized I'd captured the thing about Buddy and his death that I'd been feeling all those years in that one piece of music. Then I waited about three months and I figured out what I was gonna do and just wrote the whole thing in about an hour…,” said McLean.


McLean kicks off his international tour next Friday, January 28 at the Blue Note in Hawaii, then takes a midwestern swing with a stop at The Surf Ballroom in Clear Lake, Iowa. “American Pie” was birthed from death - ‘The Day The Music Died’ – coined after the fatal flight when pop/rock legends Buddy Holly (“That’ll Be The Day”, “Peggy Sue”), Ritchie Valens (“La Bamba”), J.P. “The Big Bopper” Richardson, Jr. (“Chantilly Lace”) tragically lost their lives in an airplane crash after the concert February 3, 1959. McLean will pay tribute to the legendary trio with his sold-out anniversary concert there on February 3, 2022.

Film Buff Friday: Surf Nazis Must Die

Girlfriend in a Troma...

An earthquake leaves the California coastline in ruins and reduces the beaches to a state of chaos. A group of neo-Nazis led by Adolf (Brenner), the self-proclaimed "Führer of the new beach", takes advantage of the resulting chaos by fighting off several rival surfer gangs to seize control of the beaches. Meanwhile, an African American oil well worker named Leroy (Harden) is killed by the surf Nazis while jogging on the beach. Leroy's mother, "Mama" Washington (Neely), devastated by the loss of her son, vows revenge. After arming herself with a handgun and grenades, she breaks out of her retirement home and exacts vengeance on the Surf Nazis.

Hump Day & Chill

Put On Your Best Sunday Hat...
Jennifer Tilly 

"I am under no obligation to make sense of you" Mad Hatter, Alice in Wonderland

"Yes" Minions today we are going to Hump Day & Chill to Jennifer Tilly's hat. Thus you have no obligation to make sense of it or me. I'm simply in love with Jennifer's love of hats. Get over it.

Jennifer's top hat is so "very" that I just had to share the hat love with you all.

"You're entirely bonkers. But I'll tell you a secret. All the best people are" Mad Hatter, Alice in Wonderland

OMG! More haberdashery from yours truly. I think I've gone mad as a hatter, hat crazy, talk to the hat, born to hat jive.

Before I become more of an ass-hat let's just tip our brims and Hump Day & Chill by putting on the Ritz fantastic shall we? We shall!

This HD & C was brought to by sheer lunacy, I now need to brand a hat with that moniker!

Leave your hat on with Jennifer at -

Cool Breeze

A Wise Tumbleweed Once Said...
Keanu Reeves & SpongeBob

For some funky reason I am feeling like a "cool breeze" in summer today. Not of the winter variety we are having at present.

To me nothing says that like Keanu Reeves as a wise tumbleweed named Sage in SpongeBob Movie: Sponge on the Run. Not to mention that the literal translation of Mr. Reeves first name is Hawaiian for, well, "cool breeze," naturally.

"Yes" Minions Keanu's destiny as one of the coolest human beings to walk the planet was ordained from birth.

So how does that make you feel? Personally it makes me feel one with the vibe. 

Just go with it!

Gonna Tell My Nieces & Nephews This Was Fleetwood Mac

Flamingo Road
Christina Raines, Howard Duff, Morgan Fairchild &
Mark Harmon

You've all seen them online people posting fun images saying they are going to tell the upcoming generation that they are someone other than they are. The thing about this is while it is amusing and often times funny it is also kind of an unfortunate commentary on how the Internet can pervert and twist the truth.

We've seen what that can do, politics anyone? Yeah, I thought not. 

Which brings me to what this really is a nifty prime time soap called Flamingo Road that ran two years from 1980 - 1982.  

Here's the 411: Based on the novel and 1949 film of the same name, this prime-time soap detailed the lives of haves and have-nots in the sleepy Southern hamlet Truro, Florida. The haves live in huge mansions on Flamingo Road, while the rest of the characters did anything (blackmail, murder, voodoo) to obtain that address as well.

The drama won over critics, but never got enough of an audience to stay on the air. Too bad, it's a personal favorite of mine and should have ran for at least the requisite five seasons so I and the others who loved it could still see it in syndication.

C'est La Vie! 

PS despite certain misgivings about doing so, I'm still telling my Nieces & Nephews this was Fleetwood Mac. I like to have fun and know they are intelligent enough to discern fact from fiction.

Mic Drop!

Current Mood

Don't Call Me "Baby." I'm Not Your "Baby."
Michelle Pfeiffer

I follow @NotableHistory on Twitter which serves up Hollywood Vintage Photo realness. Well when this classic of Michelle Pfeiffer came through from the film Scarface I stopped and took it in for a bit, it gave me all the feels, a mood if you will.

Thus my Current Mood about 2022 is capsulized at this moment in time by this vintage image of Michelle Pfeiffer portraying Elvira Hancock in Scarface.

It's all the explanation I'm going to offer, or give, so don't ask for anything more, capice?

All one has to do is take the image in to get a read off it and understand innately where I am coming from.

Hey, if you know, know, now it's time to say goodbye...

Goodbye.

Film Buff Friday: The Women

Ever heard of the 1939 classic film The Women? Well now you have, right here, right now. The Women is most notable for many reasons the least of them not being it features a cast of all, well, women, naturally. 

Director,  George Cukor was known in Hollywood as a "Woman's Director" because of his talent for drawing compelling performances from "difficult actresses" i.e. women with strong personalities on and off screen.

He is said to have discovered Katherine Hepburn.

Now the time has come Minions to leave you in the more than capable hands of my buddy Jay Jacobson and his Classic Movie Blog. 

"Yes" Jay is the one to turn to when your thirst of film knowledge is whetted, happy link clicking!

Hump Day & Chill

Chillin' 
Ghostface

Hello Wednesday, something twisted this way comes! With the hotly anticipated Scream movie opening this Friday I thought today we would Hump Day & Chill Ghostface style. 

"Yes" Minions we are going to bend it like the current incarnation of Ghostface above, by kicking back and letting the bodies pile up!

Word on the street is that Scream is the best sequel to Scream since Scream. That's so Meta.

Honestly with that kind of buzz I can't wait to see what they do with this outing and who the new Ghostface is and why they wanna keep harassing the population of Woodsboro. Seriously haven't they been butchered enough?!

In fact I plan on being at the cinema this Friday with my booty firmly planted in a chair taking it all in and shouting it all out.

But for now I'm gonna go Hump Day & Chill with Ghostface, the uncertainty is real...

Boo!!!

"Ghost Riders"

Ghost Riders
Coming February 8th 2022
For the first time ever on Blu-ray & DVD
via MVD Entertainment Group

Revenge is a hearty meal for phantoms of the prairie! On a dark and haunting night, all that is visible by the campfire light is the breath of vicious lawmen. The local preacher and townspeople gather on a lonesome prairie as the lawless career of desperado Frank Clements is about to end. Just as the hangman's noose tightens around his neck, the most feared outlaw of 1888 shouts a curse of revenge on the town preacher - a curse which will haunt the preacher's family through generations. One hundred years later, unsuspecting of the events in 1888, the town is prospering. Frank Clements and his gang return from hell to seek revenge against the preacher's grandson and his family. The fight against the phantoms from the past proves futile, and they become unwilling victims of bloodthirsty outlaws. Weapons are defenseless against the phantom cowboys - you can't kill what's already dead!

Earworm

Tina Turner

"I'm the gypsy, the acid queen, Pay me before I start, I'm the gypsy, I'm guaranteed, To tear your soul apart" - Acid Queen, Tina Turner

I'm wide awake on this Monday January 10th 2022 and guess what Minions??? Acid Queen by Tina Turner from the brilliant Ken Russell film Tommy is my earworm.

While I'm not really sure why that is, hey who is ever sure of an earworm? As far as these things go I'll take it!

Honestly there are worse ways to kick off your week like the meeting I have to hit this ayem, my back being sore and then there's the fact that I have had the worst insomnia for a couple of weeks. Yeah, you get the picture.

Tina Turner singing anything is a win, so I'm gonna take her energy and head into today like...The Acid Queen!

Pay me before I start Ho's!

Drew Barrymore and an Anonymous Chicken

Today we finally receive the answer to that age old question: "Why did the chicken cross the road?" The answer is: "To hang with Drew Barrymore!" Now that's a good reason, not a million reasons, but one good one. 

Drew is sharing the joy of this moment by posing with said chicken on the streets of NYC. While filming The Drew Barrymore Show, naturally.

Ahhh...Sunday Funday! 

My only remaining question "?" Who's that chicken??? I mean doesn't the chicken have a name?! He's almost famous...

Want to know more? Robert gave yours truly five juicy reason you need Face Value in your life:

1) These are truly candid conversations; there was no script, just real talk, recorded live! 

2) This is a diverse roster of guests with a range of experiences across the entertainment industry; actors, content creators, and artists expressing a variety of perspectives on beauty. 

3) Each episode is easily digestible at 30-40 minutes in length. The video content will be available on YouTube, and the audio from each episode will be available on Apple Podcasts and all major podcast platforms. 


4) Pandemic production of the series is a nationwide, remote effort; Robert recorded the interviews in Burbank, CA, while other aspects of the show were being handled in Missouri and Vermont. 

5) There is a personal connection with each guest: as well as having done their makeup, Robert also directed Valarie and Denise is the short film "Birth Mother;" Cici was the makeup artist on the first film Robert ever wrote/produced; Christopher has starred in two projects on which Robert was a key artist - the LA revival of "Women Behind Bars" and the digital series "Whata Lark;" and Robert earned a Daytime Emmy nomination for his work on Kit's "Eastsiders" series and was key makeup on his latest series, the forthcoming "Unconventional," on which Briana is one of the costars!

Here we are heading toward the end of the first full week of 2022, granted it's still early in the year but with all the insanity happening what should one do in 2022?! 

My advice? Play it by ear and go with the flow is the best any of us can do at this point, shall we sally forth, Magic 8 Ball says: "Yes!"

Sometimes a goblin is just a goblin, the more you know

Hump Day & Chill

Big Wheel Keep On Turning
Jacob Elordi

Nothing says Hump Day & Chill like this too cool image of Actor Jacob Elordi cruising on his one wheeled skateboard, nothing!

The air of calm and confidence oozes out of every inch of Elordi, he is one mellow fellow, too bad he's not dressed in yellow 😉

Jacob also qualifies for the Hump Day & Chill hall of fame, for starring as Nat Jacobs on the HBO series Euphoria.

"Yes" Minions season two of Euphoria premieres this Sunday, January 9th to be exact and I can't wait!!!

Thus Jacob Elordi wins the trophy this week as one cool Hump Day & Chill dude...

Remember Minions: Never straight always forward

Don't Chew With Your Mouth Open!

I Was Made For Chewing You Baby
Gene Simmons

Hello it's me Mr. Behave Yourself, as you can see KISS front man Gene Simmons is being an ill mannered boy and chewing with his mouth open. Well what else would one expect of him on National Spaghetti Day?! I ask you, "Yes" you, holding my breath...

Thus Mr. Simmons has joined us to share just how much he enjoys, well, Spaghetti. As you can see by his wide open mouth full of it, a lot!!!

What's that? "Yes" I enjoy Spaghetti, it's my favorite Lean Cuisine nuke-able meal. I like the one with the big beefy meatballs best, the one with meat sauce is for amateurs.

So if you'll excuse me I'm gonna hit the microwave and nuke me some, right here, right now...

Monday Motivation

Let It Go
Katy Perry

While we have already celebrated the passing of 2021 today is the day we flush it down the toilet. "Yes" Minions we begin the first full week of 2022 today, right here, right now...

Here to help us flush out last year is Katy Perry with a giant toilet and toilet paper, because with a year as messy as last we're gonna need the super sized equipment.

I'm gonna venture a guess and say this is part of Katy's Vegas residency Play. Only difference is I'm not playing about today's Monday Motivation.

We are soldiering on and getting into the groove of 2022 today. It's time to move forward and be the king of our collective domains.

So grab some paper and find a toilet, it's time for that first Monday Motivation of 2022 just flush.

Just let it go...!!!
