Cheers!

Super Saturday
Henry Cavill
It's the weekend and aren't you happy? Well nothing says good times like a tall glass of champagne and Henry Cavill aka Superman - so I guess that makes this a Super Saturday, no?

Henry is taking 5 from promoting Mission: Impossible - Fallout and what better way to go than an refreshing adult beverage?

At present I am at my computer having a sliced grapefruit and green tea. It's 5:41 am and too early for close encounters of the alcohol kind. But later, ya know, Saturday Night when I hit the screening of Mulholland Drive on the roof top of The Montalban Theater in Hollywood, well...it's time for some of their legendary Sangria with some Silencio to top it off for good measure.

Time to start getting up and at em' - Saturday is also my favorite Spin Class -

Ciao!

Freaky Friday

Don't Be A Drag, Just Be A Queen
Colton Haynes
Photo:
Tyler Shields
I have a confession to make, I am a fan of photographer Tyler Shields work - OK, maybe not such a big deal in the personal revelation arena as I am sure many people are. 

Also for some bizarre reason I find Colton Haynes hot. While I am sure some of you are scratching your collective heads going "Why is that bizarre?" trust, if you actually knew my overall taste in men (the key being around my age) then you would get it. There is always an exception to everything kids, don't ever think your life is one defined neat little package.

Thus these two interests guided me to this photo Tyler took of Colton, in drag.

One would think Colton would look great as a woman, since he be so purty as a guy. Well here's the thing Colton has cheek bones, and while that is associated as a thing of beauty for women, guess what? Most women don't have them. "Yep" we men pretty much stake the claim on a killer jawline, meaning that most of us aren't convincing in drag. I have great cheek bones and look like the ugliest woman ever when I cross dressed that one time in make-up camp.

Let this be your Freaky Friday tutorial - Mic Drop!

Just Because...Janet Jackson

All For You
Janet Jackson
Just Because we are part of a rhythm nation, Just Because it's all for you & Just Because she's Janet Jackson - Awwwwwwww sh!t I gave it up on the third Just Because - Ladies and Gentlemen here's Janet!

See Janet being quite the fashionista, See Janet filming her latest video under the Williamsburg Bridge in Brooklyn, New York, See Janet, well looking at you...

I'm coming out of the closet, "Yes" minions I am a Janet Jackson fan. It all started in 1986 when the notorious JJ declared she was in Control. She then declared herself the leader of a Rhythm Nation I followed. Then she became simply Janet and damn that was one amazing ride! 

Although there were many great songs on her first name basis opus the one that really was my ultimate jam was Throb -

"I can feel your body
(Ooh baby)
Pressed against my body
(Ooh baby)
Wrap yourself around me
(Ooh baby)
Love to feel you throbbin

(Ooh baby)"



Save your judgement calls and move on - this is about the wonder of Janet. Janet was of her time and really amazing. I wish her the best moving forward. Her call to arms anthem Rhythm Nation is especially relevant right here, right now. 

"With music by our side
To break the color lines
Let's work together
To improve our way of life
Join voices in protest
To social injustice
A generation full of courage
Come forth with me
People of the world today
Are we looking for a better way of life
We are a part of the rhythm nation
People of the world unite
Strength in numbers we can get it right
One time

We are a part of the rhythm nation"

Monday Motivation

Zen
Anderson Cooper
This weeks Monday Motivation is brought to you by Anderson Cooper. "Yes" him sitting peacefully poolside is a reminder to us all to take the time for some self care.

What's do I mean by "self care" you say? Tending to ones mental and spiritual well being is as much a part of feeling good as is a hot and sweaty Spin Class or doing a few rounds of boxing on a punching bag. 

One also needs to appreciate the little things in life. The quiet times, to recharge and regroup.

Personally this is something I need to do more of than when I hit the mat in yoga once a week. One of my personal fave things to do is to take a walk and enjoy the moments of the things that I see along the way, whatever those may be.

Also starting the day of with a positive affirmation helps to set the tone for it. You'd be amazed how standing in a Superman pose to kick off your day really affects you.

So bend it like Anderson & Myself today and make your Monday magic!

Queen For A Day

Sea Gals
Nicole Kidman & Amber Heard
Or perhaps it should be Queens For A Day??? So here is a photo from Comic-Con in San Diego, CA that caught my eye - why? Because it shows Nicole Kidman adjacent to Amber Heard signing Aquaman stuff.

Why did I find this eye catching? Because I had no idea until I spied this photo that Nicole Kidman was in Aquaman, that's why.

"Yes" I realize the movie isn't called Queen Atlanna (Kidman's character in the opus) but usually you hear a bit more noise when Nic is going to appear in something on the big screen.

Moving on she and her co-star Heard (who I was aware was in the movie) who plays Mera are all smiles and look like they are having a blast meeting and greeting fans of the below sea level hero.

"Under the sea, Darling it's better, Down where it's wetter, Take it from me..."
