Hump Day & Chill

Work!
Selma Blair

You can dance, or you can get pampered at a nail salon, for inspiration! Let's Hump Day & Chill to the amazing Selma Blair doing just that.

Selma has starred in a few of my favorite films, my most fave being Cruel Intentions. Oh, her doing the splits (in a naive sexual way) and the make out scene with Sarah Michelle Gellar were so divine.

Not to mention she recently came in at number twelve on Dancing With The Stars, and that was with multiple sclerosis. See where a positive attitude can take you???

BDE = Selma Blair

Hump Day & Chill, and repeat this mantra because Selma is 100% that bitch!!!

Michael's Musings

My Doppelganger
Michael Shinafelt

My doppelganger brings all the boys to the yard...

What's new pussycat, whoa, whoa, whoa! Seriously what's new? I am curious yellow please do tell, or not. Whatever...I made it to the gym for the first time in two months on Tuesday. Me and my boot, hey it was made for walking, at least that bloody cast is off and I can now wash my right foot. "Yes" I said goodbye to right foot odor this week, Yay!

Now about that other issue, that one time at band camp when my doppelganger took over...

I draw inspiration from the meta, don't judge me 

The 21st record breaking season of one of my favorite TV shows, Law & Order: SVU premieres tonight, woot!

Keep others afraid of you by calling Fall "the harvest"

Remember it's head spinning season, spin it like a record baby!

The Emmy's happened this past weekend. The Kardashians presenting on them got laughed at like Carrie. I Tweeted about it and Entertainment Tonight used my Tweet in their post Emmy write-up.

You say Label, I say Whore = Label Whore

The Impeachment process against Trump has been implemented. Let the cartoons begin!

On that note enjoying someone's public downfall does not pay your bills, stay focused

Woman Crush of the Week - Erika Jayne she'll be giving plenty of moxie as Roxie

If I told you once, I told you twice, I'm obviously not going to say it three times fast, duh

Mary Wilson of the Supremes was the first to go on Dancing With The Stars, in case you care

The best advice I can give you? Never give unsolicited advice

Are you a FOMO-sapien?

If you can't fly in the big leagues, stay off the broom

Hey, it's the first day of April and nothing says Spring like a Wedding Shower, or Sangria, warm weather, poppies in bloom...blah, blah, blah.

Back to the Wedding Shower thing. Leah Remini threw DWTS' Cheryl Burke a, shower for her pending nuptials to Matthew Lawrence this past Saturday and don't they look ever so adorbs together at it? Don't they? Answer me damn it!

1) Being Happy

2) Friend Goals

Just Because...Nyle DiMarco

My What A Big Snake You Have!!!
Nyle DiMarco

Just Because he won America's Next Top Model & Dancing With The Stars, Just Because he has shattered barriers and stereotypes of what it means to be deaf and Just Because he has a really big snake...Ladies & Gentlemen it's Nyle DiMarco!

If there was ever a motivation to learn sign language, Nyle would be it for me. 

While Nyle slayed with his pose striking ways on ANTM, he blew us away on DWTS! He moved like a pro, even though he has never heard music once in his entire life. He has way more rhythm than me that's for sure.

So when I found this provocative image of Mr. DiMarco and a really big snake on the WWW I just had to post it. While Nyle is amazing at so many things, lest we forget, he is also a fine piece of Man Candy.

Lick him up peeps!

Just Because...Maks & Peta

Dead Couple Walking
Maksim Chmerkovskiy & Peta Murgatroyd

Just Because tonight Dancing With The Stars airs, Just Because, it's well duh, Halloween and Just Because they are hotter than Georgia Asphalt. Here are Maksim Chmerkovskiy & Peta Murgatroyd  at the Maxim 2017 Halloween party in Los Angeles. Hey Maxim/Maksim, I wonder if he and his wife Peta support PETA too?!

Peta is quite sexy as a Walking Dead Little Red Riding Hood, while Max is equally hot as a Walking Dead, something or other. Not sure what his zombie character is supposed to be exactly, but when you ooze sex appeal under that much make-up who cares!

What's that you ask? Do I watch DWTS? Sort of. I watch the clips on YouTube of the celebs I want to see dance. Yes Virginia, I cherry pick the show.

OK, time to get my motivation on, it's Monday after all.

Ciao!

We Are The Champions: Nyle DiMarco & Peta Murgatroyd

Victory!
Nyle DiMarco & Peta Murgatroyd

As predicted by myself and many others Nyle DiMarco and his partner Peta Murgatroyd walked off with the Mirror Ball on Dancing With The Stars. Making Nyle a champ of two competition shows, America's Next Top Model being the first of course.

Here is a statement from Nyle about his DWTS win via his Facebook page:

"I CANT BELIEVE IT!! WE WON! WE WON THE MIRROR BALL!!! The first DEAF WINNER! This is for 70 million of Deaf people in the world! This is for all the Deaf kids suffering language deprivation. Only 2% of 70 million of Deaf people have access to education in sign language. More than 75% of parents don't sign to their Deaf kids. Winning this is a HUGE step to ending LANGUAGE DEPRIVATION of millions.

Thank you all for your continuing support. It means A LOT!"

Congratulations Nyle & Peta you guys truly earned and deserved your win!

Nyle & Peta For The Mirror Ball

Nyle, Never Fear Peta Is Here!

Although I do not watch Dancing With The Stars with rapt attention, I do follow it enough to be aware of what is happening on the celebrity dance off.

Well no real surprise America's Next Top Model winner Nyle DiMarco and his dance partner Peta Murgatroyd have made it to the finals and are competing against some other people that really don't stand a chance against them.

Yes, Nyle and Peta will win the Mirror Ball Trophy and deserve to. Some may think Nyle being deaf is getting him sympathy votes. While I agree his being deaf is part of the reason he will win, it is also part of the reason he should win.

Not only does Nyle not dance like someone who does not have the ability to hear, he dances like a pro. He has also performed dances that remind us of his disability as well, even brought us into his world with a dance to no music. Last night he danced blindfolded.

DiMarco is a superstar on the dance floor who could have been content to turn in functional performances and still have gotten this far. Instead he gives us excellence like no other while all the time reminding the audience where that desire to push and exceed boundaries comes from without any cloying sentimentality.

These two will, and deserve to win! To the other contestants in the finale? Enjoy the ride.

Dancing With The Stars Season 21 Get's "Real"

Suspicious, or Real?
Jeannie Mai, Adrienne Bailon, Loni Love & Tamara Mowry-Housley

All you "Dancing" fans rejoice, Dancing With The Stars Season 21 premiered last night!

Oddly enough season 2 of the daytime chat fest The Real premiered yesterday afternoon.

Co-Host Tamar Braxton is a contestant on the celebrity dance-a-thon, the rest of the ladies of The Real - Loni Love, Jeannie Mai, Adrienne Bailon and Tamara Mowry-Housley, were all in attendance to cheer their comrade on!

Mere coincidence? Perhaps, or is there a more insidious intent behind this blatant self promotion? Seriously, check the mysterious "10" on Loni Love's hand! Grab your tin foil hat and let the conspiracy theories commence.

Are the women of The Real to be trusted or is there a hidden agenda at work? Keep watching DWTS and The Real and see how this saga unfolds...

Paint A Rumer

Nothing Unfortunate Here: Val Chmerkovskiy & Rumer Willis 

Although I do not watch Dancing With The Stars on a regular basis I did happen to catch the Disney themed dance off.

Rumer Willis, daughter of Bruce Willis & Demi Moore, stole the show as Ursula the Sea Witch from The Little Mermaid. Her and her partner Val Chmerkovskiy did a red hot Samba to the song Poor Unfortunate Souls.

Avid DWTS watcher and Entertain Me chanteuse Sandy Zacky had this to say about Ms. Willis:

"I knew very little about this girl except the obvious. Never gave her much thought really but she changed my mind the day she explained how difficult it was reading very negative things about herself as a young child and later a young woman. Shallow idiots talking about her looks and not in a positive way and how she overcame the hurt that it caused her.

I fell in like with this young woman and then her dancing,wow!!!! 

Great dancer. A natural really. She shows grace and talent. Beautiful dancer !

She is a beautiful person and I think she is stunning!"
