Michael's Musings

Daddy's Got A Secret...
Michael Shinafelt

"Something's comin' over, mmm mmm, Something's comin' over me, My baby's got a secret" - Secret, Madonna

You know when you see someone who is accessible, but looks like they have a secret they will never tell you? The type of people who looks you in the eye and it seems like there is a whole other universe inside them that you want to visit? 

Of course you do! Every individual who has sex appeal for days has this quality. Is what's behind those eyes good or evil? Happy or sad? 

"How it could be, Until you shared your secret with me..."  Indeed...

If it upsets you that I'm just being myself, I'm gonna be more myself, so there!

Those meatballs are really small, I can put four in my mouth at once, the more you know

My Uber driver (whose first language obviously wasn't English) asked me how I was. I said good. I asked him how he was he said: I am perfect - Love it!

There's no way everyone was Kung Fu Fighting, seriously, NO WAY!!!

If they ever do a mini-series on Marjorie Taylor Greene, Mickey Rourke should play her, that's all

And I was like, oh my God, like fer sure, gag me with a spoon

Based on this season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills I'm getting the feeling Ozempic has some undesirable side effects, discuss

Scientologist on my walk home smiles says Hi. Me: Don't smile at me and shove propaganda in my face

Woman Crush of the Week - Melanie Griffith in Something Wild! Come on you all know you wanted her to handcuff you to a bed too.

Celebrate! The SAG/AFTRA strike is over, Yes!!!

Listen, that's the sound of me tip toeing through your ever changing moods

Celebrated my friend singer/performer Mike Clifford's 80th Birthday at Mimi's in Los Angeles, woot!

Walking towards it, then realizing there's no it, F#ck!

Time to put my Crazy Clown face on

Hump Day & Chill

Tonight I'm doing my usual Hump Day & Chill go to and watching The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. I know we are a mere two episodes in, but Daddy wants some meat, here's hoping tonight's third episode gets the party started.

Seriously watching Kyle and Mauricio act like a couple who haven't separated and are on their way to Splitsville is like watching paint dry. This being said Kyle so far this season has been really divisive among my friends. Some think she's the worst they've ever seen her, I like this new version of Kyle personally she isn't taking anyone's guff, you go girl!!!

Of course how can we forget the collective yawn heard round the world known as Dorit and PK?! Honestly it doesn't get any more white bread than that.

And what of Erika Jayne? Her therapist had to teach her how to have empathy at 52 years old!!!

So here we go, another Hump Day & Chill ride on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills rollercoaster tonight on BRAVO...woot!

Honey Don't Leave Me

Tender Misfit

"I'm just tryna touch you, 

Black hole, bright star

I can't help but love you" - Honey Don't Leave Me, Tender Misfit

Tender Misfit is on fire with her latest single and video for Honey Don't Leave Me. It's not hype it's 100% real and honest, objectively so. I say that because I have known Ariel since she was in the womb, and I couldn't be more proud of this commercial edgy pop song that she wrote as well as performs. (FYI Minions she a great lyricist)

To celebrate the songs release Tender Misfit is performing November 15th at Hotel Ziggy in West Hollywood at 7pm. If you live in the Los Angeles area try to make it. I guarantee it's going to be a great show! Also "Yes" I will be in attendance.

Enough with my incessant gushing, hit the totally bomb video for the song after the jump!!!

Monday Motivation

Here's Monday Motivation straight outta one Ms. Kim Kardashian. Whatever your opinion of her nobody, and I mean no one rains on this woman's parade, so there!

Clearly she believes what she says because look at where she is. 

A successful (very) businesswoman, Media Personality and Actress. "Yes" I said actress. While she has appeared in other things she IMHOP was the best thing, in an otherwise humdrum half season of American Horror Story: Delicate.

The woman knows of what she speaks, thus your Monday Motivation? Do what Kim K says and do it as much or more.

That's all...

The Big 80!

Mike Clifford

Today I'd like to give a Happy 80th Birthday shout out to friend and singer of many hit songs including, but not limited to "Close To Cathy" Mike Clifford!

Here he is pictured above at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, CA with a classic Kaiser Darrin sports car. "Yes" Mike loves cars and had one of his Birthday celebrations at the museum this past Friday.

He's also still making music, so let's all wish Mike a Happy 80th shall we? We shall!

Keep up with Mike at the links below and check out his latest video A Time For Love after the jump!

Back In Time

Marty McFly & Doc Brown
Back to the Future

I still to this day do not understand why we set our clocks back and hour for the Fall/Winter season and honestly I loathe it! I wished we could stay put on Daylight Saving Time year round.

Yet, nonetheless the time has come to do so yet again (sigh) - So here are Marty McFly (Michael J Fox) and Doc Brown (Christopher Lloyd) to gently remind you of our journey into perpetual darkness tonight...that's correct Minions set those clocks back an hour at midnight.

Enjoy the ride???

Barbarella

"Roger Vadim's ultra-kitsch sci-fi classic somehow improves with age"

     —Dan Geary, Total Film

Slip out of your spacesuit and into something more comfortable! It's time to join Barbarella on a series of cosmic adventures in this Dino De Laurentiis production directed by Roger Vadim (And God Created Woman) and starring Jane Fonda as the intergalactic glamour puss created by comic book artist Jean-Claude Forest. It is the year 40,000AD. When evil scientist Durand Durand (Milo O'Shea) creates a deadly weapon with the potential to cause mass devastation, the President of Earth dispatches Barbarella (Fonda) to hunt him down. Crash-landing in an icy wilderness somewhere within the Tau Ceti planetary system, Barbarella is rescued by Mark Hand (Ugo Tognazzi, La Cage Aux Folles) and guided by the blind angel Pygar (John Phillip Law, Danger: Diabolik) to Durand's lair in Sogo, a city of corruption and debauchery, where an encounter with the Great Tyrant Black Queen (Anita Pallenberg, Performance) and her minions throws her mission into jeopardy. With an all-star cast including David Hemmings and Marcel Marceau, and glorious retro-futuristic costumes and art design dripping with 60s psychedelia, Barbarella defined an era and has never looked better than this brand new 4K restoration, loaded with never-before-seen bonus features!
