Michael's Musings

Spin Bike Porn
Michael Shinafelt

Are you scratching your collective heads about the above image and caption? Well let me strap one on and extrapolate.

Those of you who take a spin class on a regular basis get what I mean, for the uninitiated here we go. Everyone no matter who they are have their favorite bike when they enter the spin room, in my case this takes place at Gold's Gym Hollywood (they should pay my ass for all my internet mentions of them.)

I have two favorite instructors there, Jessica & Michelle, and guess what? I like the same bike all the time. Now don't get me wrong, if someone arrives before me and snags it, I can move on and not get bent. But that never happens, because I get there early enough to insure my place in the universe.

So the image above is me showing affection for my favorite spin bike in the room with a tongue bath. Let's move on, I know you want to....

United Airlines, moving on...

Oral tops & waffle makers

Hey Guys & Dolls, this Easter I wish you the biggest basket

Hagsploitation - I never thought a limited series on FX named Feud would introduce me to my new favorite term.

There's no gray in Sonja Morgan's gardens. Dye it's not just for Easter eggs

A woman named Ida Lickhammer gave a like to one of my Instagram posts this week. Yes, really.

That time in spin class (you know, on my favorite bike) you mistake a Michael Jackson song for a Britney Spears one. Yeah, that really happened.

Here comes Peter Cottontail, I hope he cleans up after himself

To all the RHOBH fans out there. Look what I saw this past week DTLA

Erika Jayne's Husband Tom Girardi's

Why are Donald Trump and Augustus Gloop never in the same room?!

This Saturday I will be attending a performance of Bella Gaia, which has been described as "poetry in motion" with Maresa Wickham. Thanks Lynn Tejada

Get "Snatched" Wednesday

Getting In "Formation"
Amy Schumer & Goldie Hawn

While I was a little taken back by Goldie Hawn's appearance on the Golden Globe's this past weekend, and to clarify by "appearance" I don't mean the fact that she was on the show. I know why she was on with one Ms. Amy Schumer, they have a movie coming out May 12th called Snatched and I can't wait!

Both women are brilliant on screen comedians and even if the movie falls short of their talents I am willing to bet their chemistry and considerable skills will make it worth the watch.

This is one of those rare dream teams that hit the silver screen that compels you to buy a ticket just to see them werk!

As you may or may not recall the two first teamed up for a brilliant parody of Beyonce's song Formation.

Check out the funny as fuck trailer below and watch your ass!

Shake Your Booty! LaLa Kent "Vanderpump Rules"

My Milkshake Brings All The Boys To The Yard
LaLa Kent

Last season Vanderpump Rules added a new female cast member. Someone enigmatic, pretty & sexy as F-U-C-K! One Ms. LaLa Kent.

Kent quickly became a fan favorite overshadowing, the regular returning cast Kristen Doutie, Stassi Schroeder, Katie Maloney, Scheana Marie & Ariana Madix. Please those women have nothing on Kent she is an entity all unto herself.

LaLa was a breath of fresh air quite different from the usual neurotic & psychotic Sur female employee. She has her feet planted firmly on the ground and knows who the fuck she is. 

So what does the girl with the most cake do? Set herself apart from the pack, as if she already hasn't, by wearing a sheer dress that reveals one of her best ASS - Sets to the season 5 kick off party for the show.

That's code for you could see LaLa's bare bum walking down the red carpet in case you didn't quite get the gist. 

Part of the reason I am drawn to LaLa is she reminds me of myself. How you may ask? Fluff up your pillow and dream on that one. Season 5 of Vanperpump Rules premieres on Bravo tonight!

Back To "Earth" - David Bowie

"You're face to face with the man who fell to earth"

It's really no secret I am a huge David Bowie fan, I mean fuck, he was my first concert ever! Well guess what's happening now? The Man Who Fell To Earth is turning the big 4-0 and getting a restoration...!!!

For those of you out of the loop it's a cult/indie/critically acclaimed piece of art in which Bowie portrays an alien on earth, thus it's title.

Because of Bowie I became a Nicolas Roeg fan. This film was unlike anything I had ever seen before, I can't even begin to describe all of my reactions to it in a few words, but as an impressionable fan of cinema and David Bowie, the passion I feel for this production is to the moon and back.

Of special interest to fans of Ziggy Stardust, the 40th Anniversary of the Sci-Fi opus will see the release of the soundtrack for the very first time, like a virgin.

The Man Who Fell to Earth arrives in theaters on September 9 and will be released on DVD/blu-ray on October 24.

Watch the trailer after the jump!

Ladies Who Brunch: Kristen Stewart & Alicia Cargile

Not Giving A F@#k!
Alicia Cargile & Kristen Stewart

Personally I am a Kristen Stewart fan, perhaps because I have seen her body of work outside of the abysmal Twilight franchise. 

What also makes me adore her is her "I don't give a shit" about what others think attitude. Especially when it comes to her love life. Instead of making a big to do with a cover story on People Magazine, she started dating other women, in the public eye and without fanfare. 

Stewart has been asked about her love life by the press several times and her response has been "I'm not hiding anything." I love that, why does she have to define herself for any of us, when it is obvious who she is dating. Seriously, she does not owe anyone anything when it comes to her personal life and unless you are blind...

Recently she was spotted at brunch in Los Feliz with her girlfriend Alicia Cargile looking happy. You go Kristen!

T.G.I.F! Have a great weekend and Bend It Like Stewart!

Red, It's What Demi Moore & Poppies Have In Common

Desperately Seeking
Demi Moore

I came across this really red hot photo of one Ms. Demi Moore at the Chelsea Flower Show and thought it was one of the coolest visuals I have ever seen!

Leave it to Demi to wear an outfit where she and the poppies become one. Yep, you read that correctly, Demi is now an official poppy. She looks pretty pleased about it too.

For all of you around in the era when Ms. Moore was a hot commodity and starred in such hits like Ghost & one of my personal faves St. Elmo's Fire (Yes, I am a child of the 80's) you know ever so often when you had a conundrum you would scratch whatever it is you scrape while you are in deep thought and wonder: "What would Demi Moore do?" 

Of course the answer hasn't changed since then. Demi would do whatever the F#@k she wants and always manage to make an impression.

Be like Demi and Paint It Red.

Happy Tuesday!

"You Talkin' To Me?" Taxi Driver Turns 40

Taxi Driver Turns 40!
l-r Cybill Shepherd, Martin Scorsese, Robert De Niro, Jodie Foster and Harvey Keitel

"You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? You talkin' to me? Then who the hell else are you talking... you talking to me? Well I'm the only one here. Who the fuck do you think you're talking to? Oh yeah? OK."

Not being a film critic I don't want to attempt to break down why Taxi Driver is the classic film it is. Suffice it to say it has endured because of it's excellence.

Being a film buff, I knew of it's reputation and was glad for home video technology which is how I was able to see it initially and have seen it many times since.

The quote above is the most known from it.

Directed by the legendary Martin Scorsese Taxi Driver recently celebrated it's 40th Anniversary at the Tribeca Film Festival where the famed filmmaker and his cast consisting of Jodie Foster, Robert De Niro, Cybill Shepherd and Harvey Keitel reunited and posed for the above photograph.

This image is everything and recalls a time in cinema history that was golden.

Have a Super Sunday peeps!

"How Many F#@ks" It's Hump Day

Give A Suck, Not A F#@k!
Erika Jayne

While I know everyone beat me to posting the new Erika Jayne video, with whips & chains, yesterday. I felt however "Hump Day" was the perfect time to post a video for a song titled "How Many F#@ks."

Erika Jayne has been around for a spell in the music world, she is especially known among gay men ( she was named Queen of this year's White Party in Palm Springs after all.) Being on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has given her singing career a HUGE boost! Watching the show it is obvious as to why...

Who wouldn't want a loyal, smart, tough, sexy, sassy broad to call their own as a fierce friend?! 

Like she tells it: "Everyone needs a little Erika Jayne in their lives." 

Ya know what? I think she's on to something with that. Erika Jayne embodies the bad girl/boy in us all. The things we want to say and do, but don't act upon publicly she does.

Her latest song definitely strikes a raw nerve on something that we all want to parade around proclaiming loudly and in public, but for obvious reasons the sentiment is kept private.

I know I am feeling this catchy little number in 4,3,2...1!!!

A Quickie With Ted Casablanca

It's My Gallery & I'll Do What I Want To
Ted Casablanca 

Once upon a time there was a gossip named Ted Casablanca real name, Bruce Bibby. He worked at E! as a correspondent and online columnist. Well Teddy moved on from the hustle and bustle of Hollywood to Hollywood lite in Palm Springs, CA - where he opened an art gallery called the Ted Casablanca Gallery, naturally. From gossip to art, how does that shift happen? 

Here to answer that in a quickie 10 is Mr. Casablanca, Bibby, Casablanca - my sister, my daughter, oh fuck it! Here is Ted Casablanca! 

MS: Ted Casablanca    

TC:  Yep, he's a fag. A big one.                                                                                 

MS: Bruce Bibby

TC: He's a fag, too, just not as averse to vaginal exploration as Ted is.

MS: Art

TC: My first love and talent, before film and writing.

MS: Valley of the Dolls

TC: Trashy but truthful.

MS: Gossip 

TC: Truthful but trashy.                              

Is This Art?
Teddy C. Nude

TC: Rebirth.

MS: Unicorns

TC: Who gives a fuck.

Party Like A Lesbian With Lady Gaga

The Ladies Who Party
Lady Gaga & Friends

Lady Gaga took some time off from Taylor Kinney to indulge her sapphic side. She is an admitted bi-sexual after all and headed West to Palm Springs, CA for the Club Skirts pool party during Dinah Shore Weekend. I am sure about half of the women attending do not even know who Dinah Shore was at this point and juncture, but hey, any excuse to party, riiiiiiiiiight?! 

Gaga hung out and mingled where the girls are and paid a visit to Lindsay Lohan's ex Samantha Ronson who was the pool party DJ. From the photo above it's looks like a good time! I'm thinking I should attend next year...oh right no men allowed. Does this mean you have to check any strap-on's at the door too?

Happy Monday and have a terrific week!

PS Why the Fuck was sapphic spell checked and there was no word suggestions to replace it, that were remotely like it? Fuck never gets flagged as misspelled anymore and sapphic does? Just sayin'...

Your Son Will Come Out, Tomorrow

Here Comes The Son
Jesse Tyler-Ferguson

Dare I say bet your bottom dollar? Who knows, I never speculate about others sexuality, nor the position they assume. That's because I can tell without asking.

In the case of actor Jesse Tyler-Ferguson there is no speculation on the sexuality end for anyone. Not only does he play a gay character on TV's Modern Family, but guess what? He is out, no Velvet Closet, Rope, Whip or Chain is keeping this one down.

When I saw this image of him on the set of MF dressed as Annie, it made me smile, not to mention I laughed, because it's, well, pretty gay, like satire, to me at least.

Hey, if seeing this image of the iconic red moppet paid homage to with a 5 o'clock shadow and hairy legs doesn't crack your lips open to show some teeth, then maybe you need to lighten the fuck up!

Smiles everybody, smiles! Oh, and happy Thursday to all and to all a good...

Have An "Absolutely Fabulous" Sunday

Cheers To An "Absolutely Fabulous" Movie!

So the teaser for the upcoming Absolutely Fabulous movie is out! 

And well it looks, should I say it? Shall I go all redundant on your ass? No, you know what the fuck I was going to say!

Unlike Star Wars, which I got over after the three anemic prequels. Yes, I did not see nor have any motivation to view Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Unless the Force awakening people involves certain sex acts that dare not speak their name on this blog.

Which brings me to my enduring love of Absolutely Fabulous! It's all about the sex, yes sweetie darling it is.  Not to mention the chemistry between Joanna Lumley as Patsy Stone and Jennifer Saunders as Edina Monsoon is off the hook!!!

So, have a Sex Filled Sunday and enjoy whatever you ride. This is one movie I will not miss!

It's Teaser Time...

See what I'm saying about the sex???

Balloon Hats, They're What's In Style...

Trendsetter!
Joseph Gordon-Levitt

Rather than bore you with opinion, recaps and images from yesterday's Superbowl 50, like everyone else I thought I would kick off the week with some whimsy. 

Yes, it's move the fuck on it's Monday! Yay! It's a perpendicular job but someone has to do it.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt braved a blizzard in Boston (a real one, not the tasty one from Dairy Queen) - to accept the Hasty Pudding Man of the Year Award from Harvard.

Sporting a balloon hat that rocked JGL was the king of his domain.

I say we make balloon hats a trend for this week, put one on at least one day of your choosing. It will make you smile.

Hey, we all need more levity in our lives.

Happy Fucking Monday!

Blaze Of Glory - Oliver Hudson

I Wanna Be Elated!
Oliver Hudson

R.I.P. Jeff Fordham - for those of you not in the loop, Jeff is the resident sleazy music industry dude on Nashville. 

When last seen Jeff was attempting to help his client, Juliet Barnes (Hayden Panettiere) from plunging herself off the top of a building to her death. Well nothing says Oooooops! Like an unexpected slip which results in a twist of fate. That's right, Savior Jeff Fordham fell down and went boom instead of his superstar client. Fuck! Don't you hate when that happens?!

Jeff was portrayed by Goldie Hawn's devilishly handsome son, Oliver Hudson. Don't cry for Oliver Argentina, he was actually more than OK with the demise of the oily one. When asked how he felt this is what he said:

“Elation, honestly!” Don't hold back, Hudson “Only for the reason that I knew that I had only four episodes left on "Nashville" because of "Scream Queens." So I wanted to go out in a blaze of glory, so to speak. I got my wish." 

How Sid Vicious & Nancy Spungen of you!

Apparently sister Kate Hudson was so traumatized by seeing her brothers fall to his death, she cried.

Here's a tissue, wipe your nose, dear.

Pretty In Pink - Jared Leto

Jared Leto
One Night In Paris

You know I really don't give a rip roaring Fuck what Jared Leto does no matter what he does he is always one of the hottest thing on three legs. I love that he expresses himself in a pure and creative way, now that's hot! 

Of course it doesn't hurt that he is extremely sexy and good looking to begin with, so him being eccentric is the icing on the cake.

Leto took to the streets of Paris with cotton candy colored hair and a technicolor dream coat that would make Joseph green, purple and blue with envy. Hey, he was there for what else? Paris Fashion Week.

Taking to his Instagram with images of his surrender the pink style he stated: "Le Pink and Le Pain"...Freak Out!

Perhaps he was trying to shake the disease of his role as The Joker in Suicide Squad, because green hair is like decaying mold.

Whatever the case Jared, keep doing you!

Join Jared on Instagram, because you should:

Who's That "New Girl?"

Which Girl Is New?
Megan Fox or Zooey Deschanel?

I have a confession I have never seen an episode of New Girl. So why I am reporting on it? 

Megan Fox, Megan Fox, Megan Fox! I feel for you! That's correct minions THE Megan Fox is going to sublet while THE Zooey Deschanel is out breast feeding her baby.

Show creator Liz Meriweather has this to say about Fox: "It's insane to me that such a gorgeous person can be so funny, but I guess we just all have to accept it"

Accept it Liz let the feeling live within you.

Hey I am a sucker for Foxy Megan - she is funny, yes I mean it! She will make me tune the fuck in for this!!! Werd!

Can We Talk? Ian Harvie Part II

Ian Harvie
Photo: Austin Young

"I don't understand it, but I accept it is societies go to phrase. It stops us from really putting ourselves in someone else's place. It keeps us from really going there. But we could go there, and if we allowed ourselves to do that we would really understand it." - Ian Harvie

The above quote is a little paraphrased but it stuck with me after I turned off the recorder and Ian and Myself were chatting off record. This is one of the most eye opening, honest things I have heard in a long time.

For those of you not in the loop Ian is a transgender comedian/actor and friend. Post Bruce Jenner's recent interview let's keep the dialogue flowing...

Note: This is part II of my interview with Ian, here is the link to part I:

http://mshinafelt.blogspot.com/2015/05/can-we-talk-ian-harvie-part-i.html

MS: I get feeling comfortable in your own skin. Now that I am almost fifty twenty somethings are hitting on me all the time. When I was in my twenties I could never get guys my own age interested. 

IH: Their attraction is now, that you posses something inside that they wished they had. Let's take our exteriors out of this. I think people today, as we get to this place, we still deem exteriors important on some level, but...I'm in recovery, and I remember when I first got sober, the person that you ask to sponsor you, they have something that you want. There is something about them that reflects how you want to live your life. Someone might be pretty on the outside, but when you are really attracted to someone it's that they posses something that you wish you had, that you know you have, and you want to crack it open in some way. Sometimes for me it's on the surface, but usually it's what someone says, and I'm like: "Oh shit that was good!"

MS: I was headed there with this.

IH: Well, I just cut you off, sorry (laughs)

MS: Hey, this is an open forum. (laughs) You are really fearless with your comedy shows. 

IH: I won't be exhausted with it until everybody fucking gets it. People ask me "are you tired?" I'm like: "No, no I want everybody to hear this." I will say it to whoever and as many times as I need to. Maybe I will say it differently with new material, but it's a really important part of what I want to do in this art medium. 

MS: Awesome!

IH: Let's jump back to The Nightly Show for a second. 

MS: Go for it.

IH: What I thought was really awesome about it was, that this is the Comedy Central demographic watching this show. Hearing these words and these perspectives, maybe for the first time. Maybe, maybe not, there was a live audience there and there were eruptions of applause. When I said there should be etiquette on behalf of Cisgender people to Transgender people everyone applauded. But that's a live New York audience, the average viewer of that show, who gets their information from what used to be The Colbert Report and what is now this show, most likely hasn't heard this before. What a great gain to have that dialogue on Comedy Central and their demographic. 

MS: Absolutely.

IH: I was like Fuck Yeah! Fuck Yeah! Fuck Yeah, good!

MS: You did discuss Bruce Jenner on the show, I loved your Kardashian joke about all of them having plastic surgery by the way,

IH: Seriously with all the work that entire family has had done this should not be a shock. (laughs)  Yes, it's someone who was male at birth, an iconic athlete who has been in  the homes of all of America for years. Yes, so this is a new story, someone officially coming out like this is going to save lives. It's funny I use to tell a similar joke about Chaz Bono and Cher with all the work she has had done. (laughs) I like thinking of things that flip the narrative and to say the opposite of what everybody is thinking. This is not just a Trans peoples issue to figure out it is also other people's work to do as well. So I like thinking about things in reverse terms, thinking about them in other ways. 

MS: Well in West Hollywood, CA they now have all access bathrooms and I love that because I know when I want to pee, I don't care where I go, I just want to go!

IH: How many times is there a line in one bathroom or the other? I mean, we all use the same bathroom when we are at home. But when we cross the threshold into the public: WE CAN NOT USE THE SAME BATHROOM! (laughs)

MS: One last thing. What the fuck are incinerating boobs?

IH: I just did a podcast where I discussed my chest surgery and was asked what happened to my boobs afterward. I said I didn't know they were probably in a incinerator somewhere in San Francisco. (laughs)
