Odd Couple

Who'd Of Thunk It?!
Gwen Stefani & Blake Shelton

With the California Wildfires, the passing of  Marvel legend Stan Lee and the perpetual presence of Donald Trump - we all could use something to brighten our day.

Cue the hearts & flowers here it is! "Yes" the oddest coupling in Hollywood currently Gwen Stefani & Blake Shelton. When this first started happening on The Voice I naturally thought it to be a ratings ploy, as I am sure many did.

So here we are three years later at the People's Choice Awards and they are still together - insert collective gasp here. "Yeppers" they are for real, amazing, I know...

Accentuate the positive and go out there and make it a good one y'all!

Monday Motivation

My Name Is Gerard, I'll Be Your Monday Motivation...
Gerard Butler

Today I am feeling quite, um shall we say, randy..."Yes" randy is a phrase that connotes more than a dude's name. If the word befuddles you it means the same thing as frisky. If you don't know what that means then I acquiesce.

So, in honor of this my Monday Motivation is taking on the form of one Gerard Butler. Oh yeah Virginia there is a Hunk-O-Claus.

Gerard is going to get me through my Manic Monday - as I can 100% guarantee it will be, indeed.

I'm gonna focus on his steaming hot masculinity, what a man, what a man, what a man.

Who are you lusting after today? 

Unleash the Kraken!

Kiss

Kissing Bandits
Sarah Silverman & Jimmy Kimmel

"I just want your extra time and your Kiss, Oh oh" - Kiss, Prince 

Apparently Sarah Silverman got herself a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame this past Friday. While I do like Ms. Silverman it caught me off guard that she actually received the honor. I am guessing there is an upcoming project that she is in, thus the high visibility promotion.

Well guess who showed up for the ceremony? None other than Sarah's ex-BF Jimmy Kimmel! Guess what he did? C'mon guess...he gave her a kiss. Sound the collective Awwwwwwwww....sound it, and sound it now!

Thus today's decree? Give someone you once, or are currently banging a kiss today for whatever reason you see fit. It doesn't have to be out of respect and love like Sarah & Jimmy. It could have funny, naughty or insidious intentions, the choice is yours.

Now if you will excuse me I'm gonna go kiss someone special, in a place that I dare not speak it's name.

Mic Drop!

As reported by Billboard magazine https://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/pop/8473626/david-archuleta-christmas-every-day-exclusive , Multi-platinum selling artist David Archuleta has released his brand new Christmas album Winter In The Air  via The Orchard (digital) and Shadow Mountain Records (physical product). The album is already in the Top 10 on iTunes Holiday charts and is available at all digital retailers: http://geni.us/ArchuletaWinter .

Winter In The Air features 12 tracks including Christmas classics such as “White Christmas,” God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen,” “Holly Jolly Christmas” and “Mary, Did You Know?”  In addition to co-writing the lead single “Christmas Every Day,” David also co-wrote the title track “Winter In The Air” and “He Is Born” for the new set. 

“Christmas Every Day” captures the holiday spirit with David’s hopeful and cheery lyrics –

Sidewalks covered up in snow
Lights up everywhere we go
Santa’s on his way,
It’s Christmas every day
Friends all warmed up by the fire,
Sometimes I just wish that
I could always feel this way
Like it’s Christmas every day

If I could have one more gift just for me
Joy to the world it would be
With more Christmases under the tree.

David says: I tend to gravitate to more serious and slower Christmas songs. This time I wanted to have some fun and write a song that would make people happy and feel the joy of the holidays. With the help of Dave Barnes and Cason Cooley, I’m thrilled with how our song “Christmas Every Day” turned out! It makes me happy.

Winter In The Air is David’s second Christmas album since 2009’s Christmas From The Heart release.  Christmas From The Heart has made a return to the charts every holiday season and has sold over 250K copies to date.  The album peaked at #2 on Billboard’s Holiday chart and Top 30 on Billboard’s Top 200 Album chart.

In support of the new release, David will kick-off a month long tour beginning November 26 in Los Angeles and will wrap up on December 21 in Utah.  Other cities on the trek include New York, Orlando & Nashville.  Click here for ticketing info:  https://davidarchuleta.com/home/live/

Freaky Friday

I Was Dreaming Like A Texas Girl...
Lady Gaga & Rachel Bloom

File this under: Photo Ops you thought you'd never see. Bear witness to mega star Lady Gaga and off the beaten path TV star Rachel Bloom from My Crazy Ex-Girlfriend @ the SAG-AFTRA Foundation's 3rd Annual Patron of the Artists Awards in Beverly Hills, CA.

OK, so they were both there. But, what made them interact with one another? What was the draw for them (meaning Gaga) to actually want to get with Bloom for a photo? I ask you, I know you don't have any remote idea like me, but I just thought I would throw it out there.

Wouldn't it be interesting if Gaga is a closet fan of My Crazy Ex-Girlfriend? Because I can 100% guarantee you Bloom is a Gaga fan, since pretty much everyone is!

One other theory, maybe they want to be each other for a day....

Freaky Friday indeed!

Michael's Musings

Current Mood - "High Art"
Michael Shinafelt

So this past week - yeah you know what I mean. Now is the time to be artistic, be, be artistic! 

But is it High Art...???

High Art is one of my all time favorite films, thus it inspired me for this week's column 

I love foam! F#cking foam!

Play your cards when all the Beto's are off!

Breast Feed or don't. Who the F#ck cares!

Hey Demi Lovato, sending positive vibes your way

The Trump press conference yesterday. let's talk about fake news....

My place  now smells like bleach & carpet fresh spirit

Sometimes you feel like a whore, sometimes you're moderate

Dr. Suess always nails it!

Close encounters with sex toys of the human kind is there anything more euphoric???

Just Because...all of you are hot

Today I will use my powers for sex

I'd like an awkward Victoria's Secret moment

Some of my friends like actually like the film Bohemian Rhapsody - "Yes" really

Don't funk with me at:
