AHS: The Hotel Opens For Business This Wednesday

The Woman In Red
Lady Gaga
With the Hotel Cortez opening this Wednesday on FX, season five of American Horror Story had a premiere fit for a countess this past Saturday.

Gaga looked amazing in a red dress which is no doubt a nod to her character on the show, The Countess, and her bloody nature.

She attended with fiance, hunky Chicago Fire dude Taylor Kinney. PDA All The Way!

Wednesday can not arrive soon enough for this horror geek!

Pretty In Pink - Jared Leto

Jared Leto
One Night In Paris
You know I really don't give a rip roaring Fuck what Jared Leto does no matter what he does he is always one of the hottest thing on three legs. I love that he expresses himself in a pure and creative way, now that's hot! 

Of course it doesn't hurt that he is extremely sexy and good looking to begin with, so him being eccentric is the icing on the cake.

Leto took to the streets of Paris with cotton candy colored hair and a technicolor dream coat that would make Joseph green, purple and blue with envy. Hey, he was there for what else? Paris Fashion Week.

Taking to his Instagram with images of his surrender the pink style he stated: "Le Pink and Le Pain"...Freak Out!

Perhaps he was trying to shake the disease of his role as The Joker in Suicide Squad, because green hair is like decaying mold.

Whatever the case Jared, keep doing you!

Join Jared on Instagram, because you should:

Sandy Zacky "Witchy Woman"

I Put A Spell On You
Sandy Zacky
'Cause it's witchcraft, wicked witchcraft, And although, I know, it's strictly taboo".... - Witchcraft

Everyone needs a resident chanteuse. Sandy Zacky is it, here on Entertain Me. Every Halloween we celebrate her rendition of the classic chestnut Witchcraft.

Passed through many singers throughout the years, most notably one of the masters, Frank Sinatra.

While she is not a master, Sandy is a maestra, the feminine version of master, of Witchcraft

I have seen Sandy with a "Y" not "E" perform this song and many others, live over the years.

Guess what peeps she is getting ready to go live, and record again in 2016!

What a treat!

Vanessa Hudgens Goes Knott's

Vanessa Hudgens & Friends
With Halloween only twenty-nine days away Vanessa Hudgens got an early start on the festivities yesterday, when the high holy day of October was thirty days away.

Vanessa went completely Knott's in Buena Park, CA at Knott's Scary Farm

Dressed as a Black Cat (I know what you are thinking, I chose not to go there) - she struck a pose with two The Walking Dead types. But she did not seem to fear them, she looks like she is having a blast. Is there something we should know about you that you aren't telling us Vanessa?

Anyway I hope you are all busying preparing thyself and enjoying the season of the witch!

T.G.I.F! Thank God It's Frightening!

Have Halloween fun with Vanessa on Instagram:

6 More Days Until AHS: Hotel!!!

Lady Gaga
I'm Not Bad, I Was Just Born This Way
As you know October is Halloween all month here on Entertain Me. Luckily there is no shortage of things to disturb you with in 2015, and trust me I have my methods.

So let's get the pumpkin rolling with a countdown to American Horror Story: Hotel, I can't wait for this coming Wednesday October 7th to check in with Lady Gaga and her plethora of deviants!

Personally I was glad when Jessica Lange chose to leave AHS after four years. I thought to myself: "Good now the show can take a new direction and tone" because as you know Mr. Ryan Murphy built all the seasons around his leading lady. It was time for some new blood (pun intended.)

Then I really got excited with the announcement of Lady Gaga as the new Diva in town.

All of the images and teasers have only fueled my lust to dive in the pool at The Cortez !

Happy October First minions, let the ghoul times roll!

Duran Duran @ Jimmy Kimmel Live!

The Stage Pre-Show
The opportunity presented itself last night for me to attend a live, intimate performance by Duran Duran on Jimmy Kimmel Live in Hollywood (Thanks James Rieker) so of course I jumped on it!

It was fun to take a trip down nostalgia lane, hey all of their female groupies (and male ones) are now in their forties. Anyway the guys put on a great show and they all must have a portrait in the attic as they looked amazing!

They also performed two of their biggest hits: Hungry Like The Wolf and my personal favorite DD song Save A Prayer.

So no more prattling feast your eyes on photos I shot from the evening.

Happy Hump Day!

Jon Taylor Hits The Bass
Warning: Warm Up Comedian Stage Left
The Female Back-Up Singers Were Great!
