My Eggplant Brings All The Boys To The Yard
Michael Shinafelt

As you can see it's raining eggplants, they are falling from the sky!!! At least in my bubble that's what's raining down on your parade, purple whimsical eggplants, not bombs.

You can say I'm a dreamer, but I 100% bet I'm not the only one. Keep the faith minions 😘

"You're too corrupted, and totally destructive, When you've erupted, you're totally destructive, Don't drop bombs, baby, don't drop bombs" Don't Drop Bombs, Liza Minnelli & The Pet Shop Boys

My White China Plates are racist

So Denise Richards had an affair with Brandi Glanville? How's your week going???

Overheard: "Booze, I must have some booze" - seriously, this is not a drill

Don't teach your children bad words in English 

Meghan & Harry are stepping away from the Royal Family. I have no reason to follow the Royals now. Team Meghan & Harry!

Jillian Michaels made disparaging comments about Lizzo's body (I would expect nothing less from her) what I want to see is Lizzo take Jillian on in the ring. That way we can be rid of Jillian once and for all!

Brutally shocking! That's all.

Woman Crush of the Week - Ashley Benson. Because she was in one of my favorite shows Pretty Little Liars, because she is Cara Delevingne's GF and because she was great in Her Smell.

Reminder: Christmas is officially over, so if you sit on a strangers lap now and ask for stuff you are a whore. 

So a combination of comments & observations...

The most unrealistic part of Little Women is that Jo gets paid for her freelance writing on time.

Don't judge me but John Cena just streaked naked through my imagination

Happy Talk, Pay It Forward

Christmas Is Over Jennifer Lopez!

Tragic
Jennifer Lopez

I can not let this week go by and not call out Jennifer Lopez for the tragic frock she donned for this year's Golden Globes. Since I mainly partake in the affair to see what the celebrities are wearing.

WTF J-Lo?! Ms. Lopez who is usually a fashion forward trailblazer apparently didn't get the memo that Christmas is over. "Yes" Jennifer there isn't a Santa Claus, obviously, because he would not allow you to dress like someone's unwanted Christmas Gift.

Honestly, if this is the influence A-Rod is going to have on you, perhaps you should stop consulting him on your fashion choices. That's correct Ms. Thang, go back to doing you!

Too bad the viewing public can't return this White Elephant gift...Ugh!

Put On Your Best Monday Dress

Washington M onument
Kerry Washington

The Golden Globes have come, and gone. People won, people lost, the usual affair. However let me draw attention to my favorite ensemble of the evening. Can I get a drum roll and a fist bump for Kerry Washington in her daring, yet classy outfit?! You'd better not cross my Ms. Washington, she slayed!

Kerry has always been a favorite of mine. While she has had many memorable roles she is most famous for Olivia Pope on ABC's Scandal.

This is the Pope you should honor, nobody does it better than her. 

Kerry On!

The Golden Globes

The Golden Globes Are Such A Tease!

Today "Hollywood's Biggest Party" The Golden Globes turns 77. That's a million in dog years, or something like that.

"Yes" I will watch them even though I personally don't put much stake in award shows at least The Globes are entertaining, unlike the stillborn Oscars, Zzzzzzzzzzz...

This being stated there really isn't much else to address. Except maybe I could be nice enough to provide you with a list of nominees. OK, yeah that's the ticket, here is a list of all the GG nominees, if you choose to watch the ceremony, cheers!

Saturday Sinema: Black Angel

Elegantly directed by Hollywood veteran Roy William Neill (best known for his 11 Sherlock Holmes films starring Basil Rathbone), Black Angel is an underappreciated film noir treasure, adapted from a novel by the acclaimed crime writer Cornell Woolrich (Phantom Lady). When the beautiful singer Mavis Marlowe (Constance Dowling) is slain in her chic apartment, the men in her life become suspects. There is Martin Blair (Dan Duryea, Scarlet Street), her alcoholic musician ex-husband, nursing a broken heart; there is the shady nightclub owner Marko (Peter Lorre, Casablanca, The Maltese Falcon) who has been sneaking around her place, and there is Kirk Bennett (John Phillips), the adulterer who found his mistress's dead body and fled the scene. When Bennett is convicted and sentenced to death, his long-suffering wife Catherine (June Vincent) joins forces with the heartbroken pianist Martin Blair to uncover the truth... Black Angel is a consummate 1940s crime thriller which boats a suspenseful narrative, strong performances and atmospheric, meticulously lit cinematography. Roy William Neill's film is presented here in a sumptuous restoration, with several illuminating new extras.

Hello Young Lovers...

They Don't Call It "The Magic Kingdom" For Nothing
Ashley Benson & Cara Delevingne

Since I'm feeling quite Frisky Frolic and optimistic in general despite a certain evil Ooompa Loompa I thought today I would illustrate this by posting a photo of my favorite couple. "Yes" it's Cara Delevingne & Ashley Benson at the "Happiest Place On Earth" Disneyland!

Look how adorbs the twosome is shuttered on Main Street in the amusement park 😃

Anyway, gotta love these two. They are very much what I would call couples goals for my own personal reasons which I will never disclose, unless you decide to go there with me in a one on one type thing. If you get my drift and I think you must.

So let's get the feels this first Friday of 2020 and raise a glass and enjoy life, live it to the fullest and take no prisoners!

Now about that Oompa Loompa situation...
