Bye, Bye,Bye

That Time When...
NSYNC, Ellen DeGeneres & Carson Daly
When boy band NSYNC disbanded in 2002, I never thought we would hear from them again collectively as a group, individually, of course, but as a whole unit?! 

Just when you thought it was safe to walk down Hollywood Blvd. NSYNC got their star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, yesterday, April 30th 2018. Hence me titling this entry "Bye, Bye, Bye" because it is the only song by the boys that I can recall.

"No" I was not one of their fans. Seriously I don't think I am the target audience for a boy band, not being a teenage girl.

But, when I saw this image of them with Ellen DeGeneres & Carson Daly in tow...WTF?! It made me nostalgic for a simpler, sillier time in the history of the world. "Yes" sometimes I have odd triggers.

So let's kick off this first of May, or May Day as it were with some good vibes. You know you want them.

Monday Motivation

Would You Like A Slice?
Jon Hamm
While speaking with a friend of mine yesterday he mentioned seeing Jon Hamm in the current flick Beirut. He praised Hamm and the film. There's a tongue twister "Hamm and the film" say it three times fast c'mon, I dare ya.

Needless to say the conversation got me Jon Hamm dreamin' - "Yes" I started thinking about the sexy guy with the um, special delivery between his legs. 

Thus here he is in retro swim trunks during the shooting of Mad Men, one of my favorite TV Shows evuh. 

What's that? How is he Monday Motivation? Because Hamm's body is a hot regular guys body, not overly pumped but in good shape. Something that is attainable.

Having lost 40 lbs. recently having a body like his is my current goal, one I have almost reached.

So Happy Monday, time for me to have some private motivation with Jon!

Just Because...Nyle DiMarco

My What A Big Snake You Have!!!
Nyle DiMarco

Just Because he won America's Next Top Model & Dancing With The Stars, Just Because he has shattered barriers and stereotypes of what it means to be deaf and Just Because he has a really big snake...Ladies & Gentlemen it's Nyle DiMarco!

If there was ever a motivation to learn sign language, Nyle would be it for me. 

While Nyle slayed with his pose striking ways on ANTM, he blew us away on DWTS! He moved like a pro, even though he has never heard music once in his entire life. He has way more rhythm than me that's for sure.

So when I found this provocative image of Mr. DiMarco and a really big snake on the WWW I just had to post it. While Nyle is amazing at so many things, lest we forget, he is also a fine piece of Man Candy.

Lick him up peeps!

T.G.I.F.!

Donna Summer
Last night's Giorgio Moroder Birthday Concert in Los Angeles, got me thinking about one of the dance music pioneers most prolific collaborators, the late great Donna Summer.

This is a "you had to be there" moment to understand what an impact these two made in the dance world. Let me put it this way, while I have never been a huge fan of dance music these two took it to a whole other dimension, it was, and still is real and spectacular!

So I thought to myself, self why don't we celebrate this Friday April 27, 2018 with one of their unions, the monster hit song from the movie Thank God It's Friday, a little ditty you may have heard of called Last Dance

I'm gifting you with it, right here, right now.

T.G.I.F!
