Naughty Or Nice?

There's No Way I'm Turning Back
Michael Shinafelt

"Feels so good being bad (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

There's no way I'm turning back (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)
Now the pain is for pleasure
'Cause nothing can measure (oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh)

'Cause I may be bad, but I'm perfectly good at it
Sex in the air, I don't care, I love the smell of it
Sticks and stones may break my bones
But chains and whips excite me" - Rihanna, S&M 

Have you been Naughty or Nice this year? Guess which one I am...

Only 4 more days until Christmas...Are you ready for it?

"When the sun shine, we shine together

Told you I'll be here forever

Took an oath, I'ma stick it out to the end

You can stand under my umbrella" - Rihanna, Umbrella

Current Mood

What She Says
Cara Delevingne 

Cara Delevingne's T-Shirt sums up my Current Mood this post Superbowl Monday. There were many out there who thought Rihanna's Half Time Show lacked, I am not one of those.

While there were no WOW moments the show was cohesive and flowed seamlessly from beginning to end and was clearly designed around the fact that Rihanna is pregnant. 

Rihanna's presence was on point, her delivery of her hits was flawless and most important her DGAF attitude (Google it if you don't know) was off the hook! Honestly the latter played an important part in the touchdown she scored!

I especially like the end game of her singing Diamonds while looking down over the stadium full of spectators. 

The only girl in the world, indeed...

Monday Motivation

Money, Money, Money
Robert Downey, Jr.

"Bitch better have my money!, Please don't call me on my bluff" - Rihanna, Bitch Better Have My Money

Today's Monday Motivation is pure unadulterated greed. That's right minions, money, it makes the world go round and puts a smile on your face when you can spend it freely and give unto others as they maybe would to you. 

So I am meditating about bringing mass quantities of it into my realm. You know master of my domain type of stuff.

Don't judge my pursuit of the material today, if you see it this way, keep it to yourself and move on. Money is my Monday Motivation jam at present. Carry on, as you were...

OZG: Rihanna

Bad Ass To The Bone
Rihanna

With the countdown to Halloween in full force I'd like to show my support for one Rihanna. Who Turned down performing at the upcoming Superbowl in support of Colin Kaepernick. 

(Yeah, we now get Maroon 5 instead (meh) - bur considering why that happened I'm down with it.)

This is  a balls to the wall decision that I respect and admire her for. Thus it seems fitting to back her today all dressed up for Halloween as, what else? A Zombie Gangster, naturally.

"Yes" Rhi, Rhi is the OZG (original zombie gangster) and the grooviest of all the ghouls in this truly appropriate for the season and her current political stand get up.

Bend it like Rihanna this Season of the Witch and let loose your OZG, OWG or OG with a rebel yell!

Tis' a mere 11 more days until Halloween - you go ghouls!

Giving Pope Realness, Rihanna

Kiss The Ring
Rihanna

From what I gather the Met Gala was last night. For all of you recovering Catholics it must have been an intense experience of the third kind seeing Rihanna dressed in a custom look by Maison Margiela that was so Pope Francis. 

Me? Frankly it gave me a boner. Only Rihanna could pull this, that and a few other things off.

What's that? OK, here's an equal time comment for actual Catholics - are you writhing in blasphemy over this ultra amazing outfit? If so, I'm not surprised keep doing your thing, but please try to keep it to yourself. No one wants to hear it.

On that particular tangent I bid you all adieu. 

Mic Drop!

Dreams Do Come True!

When Willow Met Rihanna 

After a very underwhelming Grammy telecast last night (yes there were a few great moments, but...) comes my favorite part of any award show. "Yes" this is where I honor my favorite Instagram or Twitter moment from last night's festivities. 

This year the honor goes to Pink for posting a photo of her daughter Willow with Rihanna on her Instagram captioning it: "Dreams come true. My daughter lives for this woman. So do I" 

Awwwwwwww...there really is something charming about kids getting to meet their idols, no?

This pic is too precious for words. Thus I will halt the use of any more adjectives to describe it right here right now.

Now tell me again why you don't like Mondays???

All Eyes On Rihanna

Queen Of The Festival
Rihanna

While I am not a Rihanna fan I do have to give her credit for always managing to get people's attention. By what she does and doesn't wear. 

Thus my running the image of the costume she wore to the Crop Over Festival in Barbados.

Apparently her posting of it on her Instagram page cause quite a stir on the WWW as her abuser and former boyfriend Chris Brown commented with an eye emoji.

People went crazy commenting all sorts of things telling him to leave Rihanna aloooooone! 

OK, I am not a fan of what Chris Brown did, but I also don't spend time online trolling people.

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.

3 Women

Heist Ho, Heist Ho
l-r Sarah Paulson, Rihanna & Sandra Bullock

We've made it to the middle, Happy Hump Day! To get you over "The Hump" I bring you an image of 3 women from the set of Ocean's Eight in New York City. 

The 3 women being Sarah Paulson, Rihanna & Sandra Bullock. Yes the gang is all here, literally since that is what the movie is about a gang of women who pull off a heist.

Will the finished product be a hit or a miss? Fingers crossed for the former rather than the later, with all the estrogen power they've got for this endeavor it would be a shame if it were wasted on anything less than an terrific escapist time at the movies.

Ciao and have a good one!

Ocean's 8, America 0

3 + 5 = 8
Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett & Rihanna

First let me say I never knew I lived in such a country that would elect someone like Donald Trump as President of the United States of America. I thought I might wake up this morning only to find it was like that one season of Dallas that turned out to be a dream. No such luck.

Honestly at this moment in my personal history I am numb. Rather than continue ruminating about my extreme disappointment and shame for the country I live in and those who just sent it into some kind of fresh hell, I will try to deflect my icky feelings a little by posting this image of Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett & Rihanna filming Ocean's 8 in New York's Central Park.

They look like they are having a blast! Their smiles are infectious, may they serve as a reminder that we still have the power to be kind to one another. We are all really going to need it these next four years.

Cheers!

Janet Leigh/Rihanna/Marion Crane

 Twist Of Fate
Janet Leigh & Rihanna

Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho is one of my all time favorite films! Thus when A&E's Bates Motel was announced I was very interested, duh!

The first season, while not bad, was trying to find a foothold, an identity of it's own. That was found in the following three seasons. Since most people know how it all ends, I am guessing when Norma Bates, portrayed by Vera Farmiga, was killed off by Norman Bates, Freddie Highmore at the end of season four, that the series had a five year plan to begin with.

Oh yes the upcoming season of Bates Motel is it's 5th and final. No worries here, five years makes it a money monster in syndication. Yeah, like I stated previously a "five year plan."

So how does one take an iconic film and make the prequel series unique, yet strangely familiar. Well expand on the character of Marion Crane who was offed in the first quarter of the source material. 

Also you may want to do a casting get that is so out of left field no one saw it coming. Janet Leigh, who is Jamie Lee Curtis's Mom is the one and only original MC. So let's go as contemporary as one can get and still have some intrigue...drum roll please, Rihanna has been cast as Marion.

Personally I love this idea!!! Hey maybe instead of being brutally murdered in the shower this time around Marion will be stabbed multiple times under her Umbrella!

"Beautifully Squeezed Tube Of Toothpaste" Rihanna

Your Hand Is Like Blue Velevt
Rihanna & Chris Martin

Coldplay's consciously un-coupled frontman Chris Martin recently gave an in depth interview to The Guardian where he spoke quite highly of  Rihanna.

You know Rihanna, the music superstar who was featured on Colplay's Princess Of China? You know, her. 

Well Martin came up with a strange/beautiful/WTF? analogy to describe Rihanna's voice.

It's like a "Beautifully squeezed tube of toothpaste" he said.

This is a huge compliment when you think about it. How many times has anyone ever used a tube of toothpaste squeezed in a way that would make you feel you did it "beautifully" and utilized the whole freakin' thing? Yeah, I thought not.

Wow! Wished Chris would have dispensed some of these gems about ex-wife Gwyneth Paltrow, but perhaps those analogies were not nearly as endearing.

You Know Her Name

I am pleased on so many levels to announce that one of my favorite rock icons from the 90's is truly back with an amazing new single and video.

OK, I love (pun intended) Courtney Love, I love Hole too...get with this program and you can be my friend forever. If you don't want to, I'll still like you, but it won't quite be the same.

Not to mention the flip side "Wedding Day."

Courtney is kicking it with her Rock/Alternative roots on  "You Know My Name" this icon/artist/force of nature is truly brilliant and knocks the shit out of way more paler artists today...I'm not calling anyone out on the mediocre scale who is wildly successful for no Mother F#@king reason, Rihanna..

Lay your pimp hand down, and rock out with whatever you want to pop out with Courtney!

Thank you universe that rebel rock is not dead...Can I get an enthusiastic YES!

"Diamonds" NYU

Here is a gem (pun intended) of a song that a friend sent me for my Birthday they thought I would like, it's a cover of the Rihanna song "Diamonds" by students attending the Clive Davis Institute at New York University.

Rihanna could learn a thing or two, OK a whole lot from these talented musicians.

A very inspired cover from this group of students, and since it is my Birthday and I liked it, I am posting it on "Entertain Me".

Happy Birthday to me and to the rest of you an early Christmas present from me....ho ho ho... ; )
