Fox(y) Lady

The Proud "B"
Megan Fox

Hello Minions, we are officially in the dog days of Pride Month. This is not an excuse to discontinue celebrating.

Thus today we commemorate the last Monday of Pride Month with a Foxy Lady. Ms. Megan Fox to be exact.

Megan recently took to Instagram and posted the above photo with the caption: Putting the B in #LGBTQIA for over two decades 🌈🌈 @moveon @intoactionus #pride

Yeah, in case you didn't know Megan Fox is openly bi-sexual.

She is also one cool person.

PS Jennifer's Body rules!

Stand By You

As Pride Month winds down the celebration continues, yay!!! Friday was the debut of Miley Cyrus' Stand By You on Peacock. Stand By You is a concert put on by Cyrus and friends to celebrate what else? Pride, naturally. I viewed this amazing show last night.

Miley as we all know is an ally who is also a member of the LGBTQ community. 

While I do not review things in this space, and am not about to begin doing so right here, right now, I will go into this stating that I am a fan of Cyrus'. Her voice and expert showmanship are top notch, and let's just say this concert does not disappoint. Please refer to my out of the gate "amazing" comment if you have any questions about how I actually feel 😉 

It's uplifting, moving and most of all first class entertainment. Thus as Pride Month comes to a close this is a must add to your list of things to do in celebration of it.

Tell Miley: Michael Shinafelt sent you!

Saturday Sinema: Cat on a Hot Tin Roof

In honor of Pride Month I wanted to share one of my favorite Classic Movies with you. Cat on a Hot Tin Roof starring Paul Newman and Elizabeth Taylor.

The movie is based on the brilliant play by Tennessee Williams who happens to be gay and filled his prolific works with gay subtext. While a watered down version of William's actual text, the film version of Cat still contains this subtext, it's simply not as direct as the play.

Another reason? Paul Newman, a classic Movie Star in every sense of the word. Basically a male specimen to behold and those baby blues of his...

Have I whetted your appetite? I'm sure I have. So let's saunter over to my friend Jay Jacobson's Classic Movie Blog where you will get all the 411 and behind the scenes dirt on this piece of Hollywood History.

Love is Love!

Photobomb!

Eyes Wide Open
Sarah Paulson & Madonna

Remember When Harry Met Sally? Well today we have When Sarah Met Madonna as in Sarah Paulson at the 2017 Met Gala.

The result? One of the best photobombs ever!

Sarah's expression says it all, she is clearly seeing a person she admires and is a fan of. The look on her face is priceless.

Hey, Madonna in an amazing Moschino camo gown and net inspired shawl will do that to a hardcore fan like Paulson.

May someone look at you the way Sarah looked at Madonna today.

T.G.I.F!

Michael's Musings

 

I See You 
Michael Shinafelt

This week, like most, for the last decade, I mean year and a half has been a test of one's resilience and patience. I sometimes wonder how it all came to a certain point. People really lack the skill of critical thinking anymore and it's seriously not a good thing. I'm gonna throw a little something, something in your face laters in this column. You'll find out...

Soup of the day implies another, possibly even seductive, soup of the night...

I'm gonna start an Only Flans page, "Yes" you read that correctly. Me engaging with flans in ways no one ever thought possible

Grow up and put on the pig nose

Don't make me show you what to do with your pralines

When you are married to a pork chop and have drumstick children, discuss

Things could always be worse you could have thin villainous lips

Dear Diary, I can't find my head, send help

Uh, Britney Spears conservators are forcing her to have an IUD?! Amongst other things...

Woman Crush of the Week - Sharon Stone for what she said with regard to Meryl Streep. FYI she was not ripping Streep personally, that is if one actually possessed the power of critical thinking and read what she said carefully. Yeah, there's that.

I believe I'm gonna start checking on you with a flashlight every fifteen minutes, giving you the heads up 👍

That time I held a door open for a fly so it could leave the house and it flew back in further. It's dead now...

I'm celebrating Pride with Miley Cyrus Friday night, and aren't you happy?

Aquifarian's are your friends, mermaids, they're here for you

Don't fake it, if it's bad pull them close and start booing in their ear

Hear me boo (or possibly cheer) here:

Hump Day & Chill

Carl Nassib

"Yes" it's still Pride Month and guess what Minions? How could we not have a Hump Day & Chill celebration about the first openly gay active NFL player Carl Nassib? 

I admit that I had no idea who Nassib was up until this point. Apparently he is a defensive lineman for the Las Vegas Raiders. The more you know.

This piece of 411 being included in today's Hump Day & Chill fest, Carl is a groovy guy. He took to Social Media and made a $100 thousand dollar donation to The Trevor Project. For those of you who aren't into the groove The Trevor Project provides crisis intervention and suicide prevention services for LGBTQ youth.

So this makes Carl hotter than your average football stud, and quite a hero, he is using his powers for good.

Thus let's focus our collective Hump Day & Chill vibes to Mr. Nassib and hit his Instagram page, and send a few dollars to the worthy Trevor Project.

Remembering Judy Garland

Mike Clifford & Judy Garland

Today marks the anniversary of the passing of a legend, Judy Garland. Being that it is Pride Month makes it even more significant as Judy was a huge gay icon and supporter. 

Above is a photo of my friend Mike Clifford pictured here with Judy at the Little Club in Beverly Hills, CA. She was there to see him perform that night. "Yes" he was fortunate enough to call Ms. Garland friend.

Thus in memory of her, and in celebration of Pride Month. Here is Mike's wonderful cover of Over The Rainbow...

Enjoy, and Happy Pride!
