Santa Plug

Now for something totally different head. It's amazing what you stumble upon while surfing the Internet. This is my kind of Santa Claus! 😉

Here is the intel:

The statue in question, officially named Santa Claus, is a provocative work by American artist Paul McCarthy that has become an unlikely symbol of Rotterdam’s modern identity. Installed in 2008 in the city's Eendrachtsplein, the artwork depicts a rotund Santa Claus figure holding what is ostensibly a Christmas tree. However, due to the tree's exaggerated, bulbous shape, locals quickly began interpreting it as something far less traditional: a butt plug.

This cheeky interpretation led to the statue being humorously nicknamed Kabouter Buttplug (Gnome Butt Plug) by the people of Rotterdam. While some residents and critics initially found the artwork controversial or even offensive, it has since become a beloved and iconic feature of the city, celebrated for its boldness and irreverence. The statue reflects Rotterdam’s openness to challenging norms and embracing unconventional forms of public art.

Paul McCarthy is known for his provocative and often humorous works that challenge societal taboos and conventions. In Santa Claus, McCarthy intended to explore themes of consumerism, commercialization, and the absurdity of holiday traditions. By embracing the playful nickname, Rotterdamers have added their own layer of humor and cultural identity to the piece.

Twins!

"Hello Santa. Come play with us....forever and ever and ever."

Christmas time, like any other thing in pop culture, always brings about some irreverent memes.

While there are many that I have been enjoying this Holiday Season (some of them I could never post on here) this one is a personal favorite.

"Yes" it's the twins from The Shining sitting on Santa's lap. I know, I know they should be sitting on Satan's lap, but where would be the fun in that I ask you? I'll be waiting for your answer, soon!

If you know, you know. For those who haven't seen The Shining well get thee to a streaming service or whatever else to see it post haste.

Time for a Bloody Mary!

Dear Santa

With twenty-two more days until Christmas I was thinking to myself what type of letter would I write Santa Claus.

Then the Gods of inspiration smiled down on me and this is what I came up with...

PERFECTION!

What's in your letter???

Hump Day & Chill

Santa Baby
Santa Claus & Marilyn Monroe

All of you know by now that I am a huge Marilyn Monroe fan! Also I am aware that perhaps I need to put in more effort on the "Christmas Spirit" thing.

Thus we are going to Hump Day & Chill with this whimsical piece of art featuring who else?! Marilyn Monroe & Santa Claus.

An image too cool for yule.

Hey, there really isn't too much else to add, you have the whole 411 on why this is my Hump Day & Chill gift from me to my Minions.

FYI only fourteen days left, and I have yet to start doing anything with regard to the whole to do. Perhaps I need to Hump Day & Christmas Card??? LOL!!!

Hump Day & Chill

Who's That Santa???

With Christmas a scant three days away I thought it would be season appropriate to Hump Day & Chill to a funky, cool dude Santa Gangnam style!

This guy captures the correct amount of fun and tongue in cheek sexiness to add some much needed levity to Christmas 2021.

I don't know about all of you, but this has been one challenging year and we could all use a good laugh, actually many good laughs.

What's that you say? Who is this man in the Santa Suit? I really don't know I came across him surfing the WWW.

But thank you sir whoever you are for making the last Hump Day & Chill before C-Day merry, not to mention bright.

Booyah!

The Monday Before Christmas

Santa Claus & Marilyn Monroe

It's the Monday before Christmas aka only five more day until it's here! I was taken to lunch for my Birthday Saturday at The Cheesecake Factory in the Americana in Glendale. For those who aren't familiar The Americana is basically a mall.

Oh, and it was busy! I haven't seen that many people gathered in one area in a loooooong time!

So my guess is with a scant five days left you all are gonna be manic AF, am I correct? Well being as there is so little time left and it is Monday and such I thought that seeing a magical rendition of Marilyn Monroe and Santa Claus might brighten your day a little.

"Yes" I'm a giver this time of year.

So smiles everyone, and put a ribbon on it...

Have You Been Naughty, Or....???

Smack Bottom!
Santa Claus & Kendall Jenner

Ho, ho, ho - here we go again, with a mere 10 days until Christmas we count it down with more Sexy Santa time!!!

Well it looks like Kendall Jenner has been a naughty girl based on the fact that Santa is giving her a spanking. I wonder what Ms. Thang did to get the full treatment from Mr. Claus. Or perhaps it what she didn't do that brought it.

Maybe, just maybe this is what she wanted for Christmas and has been a very good girl, and this is her Christmas Kink (say that three times fast.)

Whatever the case gird you loins Minions, because it's coming fast and hard! Christmas that is, get your minds out of the gutter, I hope you are ready....

Mistletoe Kisses!

Seventeen Days Until, You Know...

The Stockings Were Hung...
l-r
Seth Rogen, Santa Claus & James Franco

The countdown to Christmas has heated up with a mere seventeen days until the Holiday of Holidays arrives. Thus I thought it would be fun to show a weird Celebrity Christmas Card.

Bare witness (literally) to James Franco and Seth Rogen sitting on Santa's lap, uh, naked. Except for the stockings hung by the, never mind. Nudity, it's what Christmas is all about, and giving, something to Santa perhaps? Yeah, that's the ticket.

Does this make visions of sugar plums dance in your heads? It's giving me visions of something that's for sure!

With Christmas almost here, what do you want Santa to stuff your stocking with? "Yes" that was a euphemism.

Ho, ho, ho...

Monday Motivation

Ho, Ho, Hunk!
Kurt Russell

In keeping with yesterday's Hunky Holiday theme today's Monday Motivation comes in the form of none other than Santa Claus! Well Kurt Russell as Santa in the Netflix Holiday movie The Christmas Chronicles, saw that three times fast, c'mon I dare ya!

Who 'd have ever thunk that Santa would ever qualify as Hunky?! I ask you, "yep" I am asking so gimme an answer, post haste. Well when 67 year old Kurt Russell portrays him, he magically becomes Hot Daddy material.

Thus Kurt, not Santa is really what motivates me this Monday to keep up on the fitness and health regime I have embarked on and to keep getting better and better. 

So with a mighty Ho, Ho, Ho I send you on your way this Monday December 3rd 2018 to take on the world and do something good for yourself. "Tis the season after all...!!!

Holiday Cheer With Katy Perry

Santa Baby
Katy Perry & Friends

Did you think I would let the Christmas season saunter by without a visit from whimsical songstress Katy Perry? If you did, you thought wrong!

Here is Katy being hew own Santa Claus and engaging in her personal brand of Holiday cheer by paying a visit to Children's Healthcare of Atlanta at Egleston in Georgia.

In all honesty if I had to choose someone to be my faux Santa I'd pick Katy. She is the Queen of fun and would for sure put a smile on the face of the most stringent Grinch. Nobody does cotton candy dreams and Unicorn races better than Perry, so her having a crack at reindeer games is a perfect fit.

Also I love seeing people, yes not just celebrities, taking time out to make children in need of some Holiday cheer smile. Even though I have never wanted kids, I still like them, and bringing them joy is a priceless gift.

Ho, ho, ho...and all that jazz, TGIF!

Ho, I'll Tell You What I Want...

Come To Santa...
James Corden

"I wanna, really, really, really wanna zigazig ah" - Wannabe, Spice Girls 

Perhaps this is what The Late Late Show host the adorable James Corden whispered into Santa's ear that he wanted for Christmas during KIIS FM's Jingle Ball Concert.

That and more carpool karaoke anyone? Of course you want more! 

All kidding aside I would really like to know what transpired between Mr. Claus & Mr. Corden. They would be better off telling me because if I fill in the blank it could become quite scandalous when it was pretty innocuous to begin with.

I've got Jingle Bottom my trusty Christmas spy hot on the trail to find out for all of you, and moi, and when I do I will spill right here, right now on the pages of Entertain Me, until then shake your booty if you want a white Christmas! 

Ciao for now! Me and Jingle Bottom have werk to do!

Moore Teeth

Less Is Moore?
Demi Moore

Bet you'd never thought you'd ever hear the phrase "Moore Teeth"...

Well in the case of Demi Moore "All She Wants For Christmas Is My Two Front Teeth?" Yes, Virginia she really does and I am sure will be getting them via cosmetic dentistry with or without Santa's help. 

Apparently Demi told Jimmy Fallon she sheared them off due to stress. Which is entirely possible if she grinds them in her sleep, which it sounds like she does. 

Even though she said she managed to take out her two front teeth Demi showed a photo on the Tonight Show missing only one. Hey one missing looks startling enough people could you imagine if she went teeth to the wall and showed both gone?!

Demi was on the show to promote her upcoming appearance with Ty Burrell as a married couple on the prowl for a three way in Rough Night.

In that particular case less, teeth would be Moore. Think about it, but not too hard.

Michael's Musings

Motley Crue
l-r Shauna Waters, Me, Lindley Waters & Kelly Waters

Since this will be my thoughts and impressions going into Christmas I thought to myself that I may try to curtail any cynicism I may be possessed by at present by posting an image of me and my three angels aka my nieces from Christmas two years ago in my home state of Washington. 

Like that will ever happen, yep get ready because here I come!!!

When I was a kid I used to think the red light flashing on a nearby radio tower was Rudolph's nose, yes really.

Parents teach their kids not to lie, yet they perpetuate the myth of Santa Claus. How many children has that fucked up?!

A virgin birth, yeah right.

What did I do for my Birthday? So glad you asked. I had a wonderful lunch with my friend Mike Clifford and an even better dessert later, not Mike...Yes, Daddy has a secret.

Lunch Time!
Me & Mike Clifford

Pentatonix has a new Christmas album out. It's what they do best.

Riot On Sunset by my buddy James Durbin is another album I highly recommend.

Taking myself to see La La Land today, in case you are interested.

My niece Shauna Waters pictured above is getting married in Cabo in June, and to think I knew her when she...

Kelly Waters, my other niece pictured is an accomplished make-up artist, so proud of her.

Now let's talk about my niece Lindley Waters, also pictured above. She now calls Berlin her home base. I want to come visit you my spirit animal! Let's go hang gliding grrrrrrrrrrrl! 

Elf on a Shelf is so tired ass, I move we shift our attention to the Whore in a Drawer. Doesn't that sound a lot more merry???

Due to the PC movement Christmas can no longer be referred to as "White" 

Tis' the season for back door crack whores

I love Lady Gaga's song A-Yo, did you know it's about smoking pot?!

My gift to you is me on Social Media. You can keep tabs on me at the following WWW addresses. Merry Christmas!

Holiday Cheer With James Durbin

Ho, Ho, Ho!
James, Heidi, Hunter & Kinzee Durbin w/Santa Claus

Hey Durbinators, it's Christmas Time! Do you ever sit and wonder what your "Idol" James Durbin does this time of year? Well I know the answer to that...

Of course you do! Here to tell you what the Durbin family does for December 25th is, well who else other than James himself!!!

MS: What is your family Christmas tradition?

JD: The last few years we’ve gone and chopped down our own tree as a family.

There’s a great tree farm in the Santa Cruz mountains called Crest Ranch Tree Farm that we’ve made a tradition of going to. We also ride the Holiday Lights Train as guests of Santa Claus, so it’s extra special.

MS: Do you or Heidi play Santa Claus?

JD: We could never “play” the big man in red..(wink,nudge).

We do enjoy the extra element of surprise at Christmas time.

MS: Can you tell us what you got for Heidi?

JD: I can’t tell you lol. Though I can say, we’ve been getting into minimalism lately and have agreed to get each other one thing that we really really want. Something that will serve us well and bring us joy. Ya know, not just a bunch of crap hahaha.

MS: If you could give a gift to all those Durbinators out there what would it be?

JD: The gift I can give is just more honest music. I’ve got a new project I’m recording in Vegas this January that I believe will make my rock n rollers extremely happy. More details to come :)

MS: What does James Durbin want for Christmas most of all? 

JD: This year I just want to stay home, open presents, watch movies and not have to put on pants.

PS If you haven't gotten your copy of James' current album Riot On Sunset that would make an awesome Christmas gift. Take it from Santa Michael, it's his best to date! Ho, Ho, Ho!

Jingle Bell Barack

Ho, Ho, Ho!
Santa, President Obama, Eva Longoria & Kelly Clarkson
Deck The White House

With 2016 drawing to a close and Christmas on it's way I thought what better way to count it all down than to take a peek at the last Christmas Tree lighting at the White House under President Barack Obama, one shudders to think what next year at this time might be like.

President Obama along with Eva Longoria, Kelly Clarkson and of course Santa got together and jammed on the holiday staple Jingle Bells at the tree lighting ceremony in Washington, DC.

Something to put a smile on your face today. 

Sing-A- Long, won't you?

Sunday Is For Snoopy!

Threesome
Tori Spelling, Snoopy & Jennie Garth

Call me sentimental, call me old, call me whatever you like, this image of Tori Spelling and Jennie Garth snuggling Snoopy got me in the mood for the impending Christmas Holiday.

Why? Well they remind me of my youth, duh! Also there is Christmas decor in the background, double duh! I grew up with Snoopy on all of the Charlie Brown specials and Beverly Hills 90210 was a cool show, once, so there, I've confessed. 

Yeah I know Thanksgiving is this coming week but Christmas is already in the air and after turkey day comes and goes, all bets are on Santa Claus and venison.

This most holy of photo ops took place at the Countdown to Christmas event at Knott's Berry Farm in Southern California.

Enjoy your Sunday and get Snoopy with it!
