It's Better With A Ball Gag...

Slave 4 U
Ice-T & Coco
Ice-T is honestly one of my favorite actors. He among many other reasons, is why I tune into Law & Order: Special Victims Unit which has been on the air for a whopping 18 seasons!!! The show is a personal favorite of mine in case you can't tell. 

As a side note I also I worked with his daughter in another life at a Talent Agency. She was a receptionist,and I was in accounting. Tell me more you say? Nope, you will have to read my book when it comes out for that story. Hey what would the Halloween season be without tricks?  

So Ice and his curvy wife Coco are known for their hot & hotter Halloween costumes

I decided to present you with my fave. The couple dressed hellbent for leather, with Coco in charge and Ice with a ball gag in his mouth.

These guys always make me smile when I see them together because they seem so happy with one another. Keep on keeping you two!

Get "Dumb" On Vinyl

Dumb & Dumber,Either Or...
Although I was never a huge fan of comedies starring Jim Carrey, for some reason I took a screener home of "Dumb & Dumber" while working at a talent agency. While I still never converted to being a huge Carrey fan I did find "Dumb & Dumber" funny, in a so "Dumb" it's entertaining sort of way...the sequel "Dumb and Dumber To" is on it's way people...

Another great thing about it was it's 90's soundtrack which is out on that ancient artifact known as vinyl the 20th of this month, so get your groove on and get dumb with your bad self!

The soundtrack to the smash hit film "Dumb and Dumber" will be available on vinyl for the first time ever on May 20 via ShopRadioCast. The double gatefold vinyl LP is now available for pre-order here.
The soundtrack features a who's who of 90's-era alt-rock and pop acts such as Crash test Dummies, The Proclaimers, Butthold Surfers, The Primitives, Dee-Lite, plus many others.
"Dumb and Dumber" is an American road-buddy comedy film starring Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels. It was written and directed by the Farrelly brothers, and was their directorial debut. The film tells the story of Lloyd Christmas and Harry Dunne, two good-natured but dimwitted friends from Providence, Rhode Island who set out on a cross-country trip to Aspen, Colorado to return a briefcase full of money to its owner, only to be pursued by a group of criminals who are after the briefcase.
The film was released on December 16, 1994 and developed a cult following in the years since its release.
The success of "Dumb and Dumber" launched the career of the Farrelly Brothers and solidified Carrey's. The film also spawned an animated TV series and a 2003 prequel. A sequel, entitled "Dumb and Dumber To", is slated for a November 2014 release.

Reel Life: My Week With Marilyn



“I'm selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.”
― Marilyn Monroe

This quote by the most famous woman in the world sums up the film “My Week With Marilyn” ….

Who knew the everlasting, amazing star would end up with a movie about herself that she herself defined in a quote (but after seeing this movie you will not be surprised that she actually did).

OK, yes, I am a longtime Marilyn fan, so much so that when I worked in bookkeeping at a talent agency near the Westwood Memorial Cemetery, where Marilyn was laid to rest, on days when I used to bring my lunch and wanted tranquility and peace I would go there and sit on the bench in front of her marker and eat whatever food I had brought for the day.

“My Week With Marilyn” is not a bio pic per se’ - but a love letter to the woman as an artist & human being, that covers the time when she was filming “The Prince and the Showgirl” with Sir Laurence Olivier, who also directed.

Marilyn was selfish, impatient and, and as she said a “little insecure” I would say a lot. But she was also charming, sweet, sexy, loving and a true artist.

Ultimately this is what you get from “My Week With Marilyn” - a portrait of an extremely complex woman who delivered for the studios a magic no one else could, therefore the difficulties were worth it for them to put up with.

Michelle Williams is one of my favorite actresses working, I love, love, love her! She captures the magic of Marilyn - my favorite stuff in the film is when she portrays the icon flubbing scenes during production of "The Prince and the Showgirl" she is truly awful (on purpose of course), but when she nails the scenes, she captures the magic that was Marilyn.

Love this movie, if you are fan a must see, and to everyone else who is on the fence, this is a enchanting piece of entertainment, and you will be completely captivated by Williams.

Hey, Michelle - FYI you are now officially my favorite for the 2011 Best Actress Oscar.
