Before & After

Hair Apparent
Halle Berry 

It's just another Manic Monday Minions (say that three times fast) - and I thought we would honor it with a photo of Halle Berry's hair style with a before and after shot.

"Yes" it's because I am feeling light today, just as light as Halle with blonde streaks in the before photo.

But soon I am will be feeling like a Purple People Eater, much like Halle in her after and current photo.

There you have it peeps Halle Berry's Hair.

Now go out there and get em' Minions and have a groovy Monday!

When In Rome...

Fendi, Fendi, Fendi!
Jason Momoa & Lisa Bonet

When in Rome, do as the Romans do....or in this case, when in Rome do what Celebrities do. What do Celebrities do when in Rome you ask? Well based on what I can tell they attend the Fendi Couture Fall Winter 2019/2020 cocktail party.

Just Because I'm feeling this photo and Just Because they are one strikingly beautiful couple I present to you Jason Momoa & Lisa Bonet hitting it on the carpet for one sizzling hot photo op.

Thus today I leave you with no real insight, no real strong opinions, just a pretty image of two pretty beings to brighten your Sunday. Hey, that's your Funday, your I don't have to run day. The one that comes before your Manic Monday.

Cheers!

Monday Motivation

No Drama
Big Little Lies

"Monday mornin´, it was all I hoped it would be, Oh Monday mornin´, Monday mornin´ couldn´t guarantee" Monday, Monday - The Mamas and the Papas

Ahhhhhhhhhh "Yes" it's another Manic Monday but does that mean there has to be drama? Noooooooooo! Today's Monday Motivation, or MM as as we now defer to it is, just say no to drama.

Man I really don't go from one self induced crisis to another. Not my style or jam. I prefer to stay in my lane and know my role.

No drama, or minimal drama (because let's face it, life always has some static) is the way to achieve being your own personal best.

Thus I declare this Monday, and for that matter the rest of everyone's week, and for that matter again, life - a drama free zone! Honestly the only drama I want is when I watch Big Little Lies every week, mic drop? Hell "Yes!" 

Ain't nobody got time for that sh!t for reals...

Monday Motivation

My Name Is Gerard, I'll Be Your Monday Motivation...
Gerard Butler

Today I am feeling quite, um shall we say, randy..."Yes" randy is a phrase that connotes more than a dude's name. If the word befuddles you it means the same thing as frisky. If you don't know what that means then I acquiesce.

So, in honor of this my Monday Motivation is taking on the form of one Gerard Butler. Oh yeah Virginia there is a Hunk-O-Claus.

Gerard is going to get me through my Manic Monday - as I can 100% guarantee it will be, indeed.

I'm gonna focus on his steaming hot masculinity, what a man, what a man, what a man.

Who are you lusting after today? 

Unleash the Kraken!

Monday Motivation

Now This Is Motivation!
Gerard Butler

It's another Manic Monday and another opportunity to find fresh motivation to kick off the week. Today is Monday Motivation at it's finest in the form of one Gerard Butler. Funny I had a boyfriend told me Gerard was his ultimate type and that I was his "Gerard Butler" thus I guess this post is somewhat narcissistic by proxy. 

Whatever. Today I need the power of Butler to get my tired booty into high gear and the great thing about this photo of Gerard shirtless (well there are many, but I will focus on the general one) is you can project pretty much anything onto it for a call to Monday action.

So here is what I am using: "Gerard is up and at em' - having done his morning yoga, he is now ready for his coffee and the Monday ahead of him. He's got his motivation on!!!"

Works for me, now I am ready to take on Manic Monday - time for me to motor peeps, and you should too.

I hope myself & Gerard were a helpful way to kick off the last Monday of June...Michael is leaving the laptop!

Duck Better Have My Money

Money, Money, Money
Val Chmerkovskiy

Look it's Val Chmerkovskiy and he's striking it rich in the Duck Tales money bin at the D23 Expo in Anaheim, California, on Friday. 

Yep, the Dancing With The Stars pro has turned amateur and is trying to grab his loot from the vaults of Scrooge McDuck. 

That duck better have his money because I'm sure Scrooge, given his name, will do everything in his power to hold onto all the money he's got, whether it is his...or not!

Be careful Scrooge I have a suspicion Val can go all gangsta on you Rihanna style if need be, and we've all seen how THAT turned out. As a special bonus he will dance on your grave too!

It's just another Manic Monday after all.

1 Guy, 1 Beer & A Balcony

There Is Nothing Like A Beer
Lance Bass

It's another Manic Monday peeps time to dust yourself off and begin the countdown of another week on the 2017 calendar.

This image caught my eye and even though it screams completely relaxed and enjoying ones self,hardly how most beings associate the beginning of the work week, I thought to myself "visualization" when I saw it.

Here is Southern Boy Lance Bass vacationing in New Orleans showing us why he loves it there, drinking a beer on the balcony of where he is staying. Having been to New Orleans I can relate to this and even if you haven't you can too because who does not get chillaxing? 

So file this in your memory bank with the caption "chillaxing" visualize it in your mind when you get stressed, and I am sure it will help get you through your Monday and the rest of the week too for that matter.

Michael says: Relax!

"I Do" Colton Haynes

I Got You Babe
Colton Haynes, Jeff Leatham & Cher

It's just another Manic Monday, time to start a new week, yadda yadda, yadda...actor Colton Haynes of Arrow and Teen Wolf fame is engaged to his boyfriend Jeff Leatham, three cheers for the happy couple!

Jeff proposed to Colton on the beach at the Las Ventanas al Paraiso in Los Cabos, Mexico Saturday night. Oh what a proposal it was, Cher was even involved in a video message lead in singing I Got You Babe. This of course was followed by fireworks and being that that groom is a celebrity and Four Seasons Hotel floral designer, yes there were flowers.

Colton & Jeff

What's a boy to do? Say "Yes" naturally.

Colton & Jeff sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G!

Love In An Elevator

Going Down?
Tom Ford & Richard Buckley

Have any of you seen Tom Ford's Nocturnal Animals? I've been told that I would really like it and am going to try to catch over Thanksgiving day weekend.

Here's a fun little fact to kick off your week. Did you know that writer/director of NA, Tom Ford met his husband in an elevator?

Yep, apparently it was love at first sight for he and Richard Buckley. By the time they hit the ground floor all bets were off and they knew they were meant and moved in together within a month. Talk about living it up when your going down.

Sometimes I guess you just know. 

It's just another Manic Monday kids, make it a good one!!!

Back In Time: Lindsay Lohan

Memories
Lindsay Lohan

Since it's always manic on Monday I thought I would share a Sunday fun day nostalgic blast from the past. I present to you Lindsay Lohan visiting her London home from the Disney classic film The Parent Trap.

For the uninitiated Lindsay had game playing twins Hallie Parker and Annie James. Hallie lived in Napa, CA., with her father Nick Parker (Dennis Quaid).  Annie resided with her mom Elizabeth James (the late Natasha Richardson) in London.

Yes, two adorable little Lindsay's in one crowd pleasing movie. She did what is all the rage these days and took to her Instagram and posted said  photo with the caption:

"A trip down memory lane #sundayfunday, #theparenttrapmovie Annie's house but it was number 7 in the movie."

Awwwwwwwwwwww...Happy Monday and have a Terrific Week!

"It's just another manic Monday, I wish it was Sunday
'Cause that's my funday, My I don't have to runday" - The Bangles Written by Prince

Wow! What a week it has been all I can think of is Prince, Prince, Prince. I have always loved the Purple One for his art, humanity and balls.

The reality of the impact he had on my life really set in after a few days. Hearing my awesome spin instructor Michelle Siegel play his songs while I toiled away on the stationary bike brought me to how he really influenced my life and person.

This quote from the Internet nails my sentiments perfectly:

"Thinking about how we mourn artists we've never met. We don't cry because we knew them, we cry because they helped us know ourselves"

Me & James Durbin
@ Universal City Walk

I really had to put this out there as Prince meant a lot to me and is a big part of who I am. Things to come this week? Look for my chat Wednesday with Margaret Cho about her CD that drops this Friday, April 29th American Myth.
Also I am attending my buddy James Durbin's free concert at Universal City Walk this Friday coincidentally the 29th as well. So you know I will have some killer exclusive pics.
Have a terrific week!

"Mutilator" Monday

You have heard of Manic Monday, Monday Funday, Monday the beginning of the weekly grind, today July 13th is now "Mutilator" Monday...Yes, I am a horror fan!

The Mutilator - Dual Format DVD & Blu-ray - ORDER HERE - Out September 29th!

Although the slasher film was in decline by the mid-1980s, there were still some grisly delights to be had... and they don't come much grislier than writer-director Buddy Cooper's sickening stalk-and-slash classic The Mutilator! When Ed receives a message from his father asking him to go and lock up the family's beach condo for the winter, it seems like the perfect excuse for an alcohol-fuelled few days away with his friends. After all, his dad has forgiven him for accidentally blowing mom away with a shotgun several years ago... hasn't he? But no sooner are the teens on the island than they find themselves stalked by a figure with an axe (and a hook, and an onboard motor) to grind... Originally entitled Fall Break (watch out for the incongruous theme song of the same name!), The Mutilator has earned a reputation amongst horror fans as one of the 'holy grails' of 80s splatter mayhem due to its highly inventive (and not to say, decidedly gruesome) kill sequences, courtesy of FX wizard Mark Shostrom (Videodrome, Evil Dead II). Finally making its long-awaited bow in High-Definition, The Mutilator has returned to terrorize a whole new generation of horror fans!

Marc Jacobs Does "Believe" in Cher

What Cher is Wearing This Fall

As fall 2015 draws nigh, be on the lookout for images of Cher wearing Marc Jacobs for his fall 2015 campaign.

The multi-faceted Cher now has working Marc Jacobs designs this fall on her vast to do list.

Willow Smith is also on board as well, but does anyone really care with Cher occupying the same orbit?

Cher joining the campaign is definitely a smart move Mr. Jacobs. In Cher we "Believe!"

Happy Manic Monday!
