Friday Feeling

You Lookin' At Me?!
Josh Brolin

This image of Josh Brolin looking like he's ready to go a second round in Venice, CA  perfectly sums up how I am feeling on this Friday, February 9th, 2018.

Translation? Even if Josh isn't ready, I am more than ready for round two! Wanna take me on? 

Having recently dropped 25 lbs and counting it feels like I am on the verge of something bigger than myself at present and what that is will reveal itself to me organically and intuitively in time. 

Trust me the best things happen when you feel good about yourself - thus I urge all of you to get out and do things that make you feel that way. Number one on that list is exercise. I can't tell you what a difference it has made for me to keep a schedule that consists of four spin classes, one yoga class and boxing as part of  my weekly routine.

Boxing has been the thing that has propelled me as a person in all honesty. It makes me feel like I can take on anything and it, believe it or not, centers me. 

Now you get why Josh is the poster boy for my Friday Feeling. Find an image of someone and something to inspire you today and then make that inspiration happen.

There is no time like now! T.G.I.F!

Michael's Musings

I Get My Kicks Below The Waistline, Sunshine
Michael Shinafelt

"I get my kicks above the waistline, sunshine" - Murray Head, One Night in Bangkok 

The 80's hit One Night in Bangkok came to mind this week, Thus I juxtaposed the lyrics to caption my photo and then presented the actual ones.

Why? Well because the sentiments are two contrasting extremes and life is about balance. Like everyone some of my kicks are mental while others are physical. 

But when mental and physical connect it's spectacular. In case you were wondering if that's something I have, why "yes" it is. If your happy and you know it clap your hands!

It's so bizarre, the floating chicken...

Lindsey Elding was poisoned by Smurfs

One of my favorite things is random people smiling at me when I walk down the street

Where will you be when the homegirl bounces again?

Olivia Pope has really turned savage on Scandal

Looking forward to Season 3 of Unreal premiering on Lifetime February 26th

I want to be reincarnated as Gerard Butler's swimsuit

Hump Day & Chill

Mr. O'Connell I Presume
Jack O'Connell

Today I give 100% credit to Tye Briggs Favorite Hunks & Other Things for today's Hump Day man candy. 

Jack O'Connell is an actor I have never heard of until I spied him, well, naked on Tye's blog coverage of him in a production of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof in London. 

In this particular production of it Brick played by Jack starts and ends the first act totally nude on stage. 

While the Tye's coverage is great as usual we all know what you want...the un-coverage!

That comes courtesy of images from a film Mr. O'Connell did in 2013 called Starred Up  you get to see everything, and it's spectacular! 

So no more teasing on with the show. Hit it at the link and get your hump on!

A Need For Speed

Fast Car
Kylie Minogue

"No one wants to stay at home, Nobody wants to be alone, When you come knocking, I’ll be at your door" - Dancing, Kylie Minogue

No truer words were sung and Ms. Minogue certainly practices what she sings. Case in point here she is seen riding shotgun with Formula E CEO Alejandro Agag in the BMW i8 Safety Car during the Santiago ePrix.

Apparently she felt a need for speed on this particular day, but with her upcoming album Golden, not so much.

All we know is it will be out sometime in 2018, well that could mean the end of the year for all we know given the vague time frame.

C'mon Kylie your fans are waiting and like you, they have a need for speed as well!

Mic drop!

Sh!t Helen Mirren Says

Paint It Black
Helen Mirren

Let's face it at 72 Helen Mirren is da bomb! Look it's Helen looking stunning in black at a screening of her current movie Winchester. 

Based on the real life of Winchester rifle heiress Sarah Winchester here is the synopsis for it: The most haunted house in the world sits on an isolated stretch of land that's 50 miles outside of San Francisco. Built by Sarah Winchester, heiress to the Winchester fortune, it stands seven stories tall and contains hundreds of rooms. To an outsider, it looks like a monstrous monument to a disturbed woman's madness. But Sarah's actually building a prison, an asylum for hundreds of vengeful ghosts -- and the most terrifying among them have a score to settle with the Winchesters.

But that's not the point of today's post, today is Helen Mirren Day here on Entertain Me! I could extrapolate on why I adore her, but why don't we let this dame speak for herself. From the mouth of a broad here is some sh!t Helen Mirren says!

There's no good way to waste your time. Wasting time is just wasting time.

All you have to do is to look like crap on film and everyone thinks you're a brilliant actress. Actually, all you've done is look like crap.

I am so happy that I didn't have children. Well, you know, because I've had freedom. And I've so loved my freedom.

It's great to be queen!

The trick in life is learning how to deal with it.

Flesh sells. People don't want to see pictures of churches. They want to see naked bodies.

Girls go out together to see a chick flick or something. I loathe, I hate, chick flicks.

You write your life story by the choices you make. You never know if they have been a mistake. Those moments of decision are so difficult.

Want more Helen? Of course you do...!

Margaret Cho Extended

All Cho, No Bloat

She's here, she's extended, and it's huge!

Five time Grammy & Emmy nominated comedian Margaret Cho has announced brand new spring dates to her wildly popular “Fresh Off The Bloat” tour which launched last fall.  

Margaret was named one of Rolling Stone magazine’s 50 Best Stand-Up Comics of All Time http://www.rollingstone.com/culture/lists/50-best-stand-up-comics-of-all-time-w464199?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=021417_16&utm_content=daily and has received rave reviews for the initial shows with the Chicago Tribune saying “Be it on-screen (“30 Rock,” “Drop Dead Diva”) or on stage, Margaret Cho has been one of the most exciting, unpredictable stand-up comics working for some time, and that hasn’t changed in 2017. If anything, the Asian-American female comedian’s voice has become more valuable than ever, given today’s social climate, and Cho’s material remains just as compelling, thanks in part to—and sometimes in spite of—her unapologetic delivery.”

“Fresh Off The Bloat” is certainly her sickest stand-up comedy show to date. A pioneer amongst women in comedy, Margaret doesn’t take anything for granted as she continues to tackle difficult subjects with sensitivity and her razor sharp insight with her takes on addiction, abuse, activism and Asianness. It's all about the politics of disgust and what is disgusting about politics. Aptly titled, “Fresh Off The Bloat,” Margaret says, ““Fresh Off The Bloat” is my sickest show to date.  My grandmother said "You look like bloated as if you've been found dead in a lake after several days of searching." Koreans are the most savage of all the Asians. My new show is all about being fresh off drugs and drinking and suicide and coming back to life - finally fished out of the river Styx. It's meta. It's magical. It's me.”
