Hump Day & Chill

Today is May The 4th as in "May The 4th Be With You." Thus we are going to Hump Day & Chill by honoring the celebration of Star Wars fans everywhere!

What's that you ask? Am I a Star Wars fan? Well yes and no. When I was younger and the movies first came out I was a HUGE fan of the original trilogy. The prequels not so much. 

After the prequels (which sucked) I never went back to the series when it had it's recent reboot with The Force Awakens. I had lost interest, out grown the series if you will at that point. Even the originals which I loved dearly in my youth hold little to no interest to me anymore.

But a silly fan celebration like this is always fun to acknowledge and adds some levity to ones day.

Thus I hereby decree we Hump Day & Chill to Star Wars - May The 4th Be With You Minions!!!

James Durbin Out!

James Durbin has left the building. "Yes" the rumor is true, he's vacated the role of Quiet Riot frontman. 

Durbin joined the veteran heavy hard rock band in March 2017. Formed in 1973, Quiet Riot had its biggest hit on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1983 with “Cum on Feel the Noize,” a cover of Slade’s 1973 U.K. hit. The Quiet Riot version peaked at No. 5 on the Hot 100.

As you recall Durbin also made a not so Quiet Riot of his own when he was placed fourth on Season 10 of American Idol.

Evolving is a part of life, when the time comes to do other things, you know it and had better pay attention to your inner voice. James told Entertain Me about his not being with the band - 

"I'm proud of and grateful for my time in Quiet Riot, but I'm really looking forward to releasing a new EP in early 2020, and working on various new projects. Including Voice Over acting for Disney/Star Wars: "Choose Your Destiny" 

My hometown rock cover band The Lost Boys and California country band Homeland Revival. As well as any new opportunities that come my way."

Best wishes buddy and "May the force be with you" always.

Just Because...Daisy Ridley

Tuxedo Junction
Daisy Ridley

Just Because it's Monday, Just Because she's Rey in the Star Wars movies & Just Because girl can really werk a tuxedo, I present this image of Daisy Ridley.

I actually have a confession to make. I have not seen Daisy as Rey in the latest crop of Star Wars movies, nor do I intend to. They hold zero interest for me. Fact: Even though I know who she is I actually had to look up the name of her character in the movies for this post. There you have that. This being out to the world now, I must say she does look pretty effing amazing rocking a tux at the Empire Awards.

Thus I felt this image was a perfect launch to Monday. 

Sunday Funday has passed the weekend is finished and women looking smashing in a tux is the the new black.

Tell me what it is again you don't like about Mondays? Yeah, I thought you might have a change of heart right here, right now.

Ciao!

Sh!t Carrie Fisher Said

What A Dame
Carrie Fisher

The passing of Carrie Fisher is truly epic. Not only did she play the iconic role of Princess Leia in the Star Wars films, she was also a writer with a sharp wit and even sharper tongue. Her candor about being being mentally ill gave others the courage to face their challenges by owning them.

I think the best way to honor her passing is to let her own brilliant words speak for themselves...Carrie On!

"I always wrote. I wrote from when I was 12. That was therapeutic for me in those days. I wrote things to get them out of feeling them, and onto paper. So writing in a way saved me, kept me company. I did the traditional thing with falling in love with words, reading books and underlining lines I liked and words I didn't know"

"I am mentally ill. I can say that. I am not ashamed of that. I survived that, I'm still surviving it, but bring it on. Better me than you"

"No, as it turns out, I really like being congratulated on my weight loss. I like it so much, it's tragic"

"I was street smart, but unfortunately the street was Rodeo Drive"

"The world of manic depression is a world of bad judgment calls"

"Leia follows me like a vague smell"

"I'll never be known for my work with boundaries" 

"I'm very sane about how crazy I am"

"Anything you can do in excess for the wrong reasons is exciting to me"

"I am truly a product of Hollywood in-breeding. When two celebrities mate, someone like me is the result"

Michael's Musings

Look Ma I'm On Top Of Graffiti!
Michael Shinafelt

Hey y'all it's December 1st let's have a hootananny! Wrong time of year, is there really a correct time for that? It's on, the countdown to Christmas and my Birthday has begun!

Yo, I am a Christmas baby born exactly one week before, December 18th to be exact for those of you who suck at math, like me. Unlike Monty Python's Life of Brian I was however, never mistaken for the messiah...wait I recant, I have heard "Oh Jesus" many times before. Let's get December started, shall we?

Damn it! I want an invite to Martha and Snoops Potluck Dinner Party, ASAP!

And this line is your path...don't question me.

If you don't fit in, you are doing the right thing.

Guilty Confession: I love the Mistle-Tones with Tori Spelling & Tia Mowry and watch it every Christmas season.

I regret nothing. NOTHING!

RBF is my MO (Translation: Resting Bitch Face is my thing)

Last year I turned 50 on my Birthday, can you guess how old I will be this year?

Not only is it December 1st it's also World AIDS Day.

So, Disney is making a Star Wars related movie a year. The newest one opens 2 days before my Birthday, bad decision, it will become stale as fruit cake. PS I didn't see the last one either.

Remember my Birthday, I am on the downhill slope to 60 and I deserve your respect!

Pimping Disney? Ariana Grande

Paid Shill, or Bad Hairstyle Choice?
Ariana Grands

Is Ariana Grande on the Disney payroll?! That can be the only explanation for her questionable hairstyle. "Yes" in the tradition of the repellent man bun trend, Ariana is sporting mini bobs. Which, depending on your perspective either look like Minnie Mouse ears or an ode to Princess Leia from Star Wars.

Both interpretations prove there may be a conspiracy going on and Disney is paying her to wear them since Minnie and Star Wars are both property of the House of Mouse.

Ariana Grande undercover Disney Pimp, think about it...why the Hell else would her boyfriend Ricky Alvarez be seen in public with her looking this goofy?

The truth is out there, really it is.

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???

Three Way With Amy Schumer

Does This Cigarette Make Me Look Topless?

In honor of Hump Day I thought I would share this photo. It made me laugh, hope it makes you laugh too!

Yep, the awesome Amy Schumer whose rave reviewed movie Trainwreck opens this Friday, up chucked her inner Princess Leia in a photo shoot for GQ.

As you know no Star Wars themed shoot would be complete without a menage a trois image of Leia having been freshly banged by C3PO and R2D2.

It'a all about the hump, Happy Wednesday!

Video: E.G. Daily "Wait"

It's time to roll out a video here at "Entertain Me" - "Wait" is an amazing video by friend and interview subject favorite E.G. Daily, who you may remember from such 80's classics as "Pee Wee's Big Adventure" "Valley Girl" & "Bad Dreams".

E.G. has been working on the "Me And a A Gun" project with music producer James Kaufman, for which I interviewed her for the first single and video, the lovely and moving "Somebody's Loving You" for at www.chorusandverse.com - here is the link: http://www.chorusandverse.com/content.php?id=20101210A

While I loved that song, being a horror fan I loved this even more as the visual references gave a shout out to "The Nightmare Before Christmas" as Ms. Daily looks done up like "Sally" from said movie and Rob Zombie's classic "The Devil's Rejects" in which Ms. Daily starred as a hooker who gets shot square in the head and wants to do Princess Leia from "Star Wars" drag...check it out, this song and video rules, word!
