Got A Secret..?

Pretty Little Liars
Hits Paleyfest
With the Pretty Little Liars winter premiere set in the not too distant future, but distant enough for those of us (ahem, me!) who are fans of the show, January 12, 2016. The "Liars" recently took to a panel discussion of the show in NYC for Paleyfest, which takes place at the Paley Center for Media and bills itself as "the ultimate TV fan festival."

It not only hosts the stars of the show, but the creators as well. Everyone who works hard to give you an evening of entertainment on your favorite shows all in one place, yes!

Joining in the chat about what's to come on PLL, as the kids call it these days, this season were: Troian Bellisario, Ashley Benson, Lucy Hale, Sasha Pieterse, Joe Dougherty, Oliver Goldstick, I Marlene King and moderator Andy Swift.

The fan boy in me wishes I could have been there! But I am sure we will get teased with tantalizing bits of information plenty between now and January 12

Buckle up PLL fans it's going to be a bumpy 2016!

Remember the greatest story ever told started with a lie.

40 Years Of "Rocky Horror"

Toucha, Toucha, Touch...Us
The Cast of The Rocky Horror Picture Show
I could not pass up running this photo from Entertainment Weekly's reunion of The Rocky Horror Picture Show cast forty years later, and still going strong. It's the movie that will never die and how appropriate considering the time of year it is.

By the time I got to see it, at age eighteen when I was able to without a parent or guardian, it was already a cult film on the midnight circuit. With people acting it out in front of the screen and using props at various points throughout it. My favorite thing was throwing the toilet paper rolls and calling out "virgin" at the obvious newbies attending. Something about yelling "virgin" at someone is quite entertaining to me.

Needless to say The Rocky Horror Picture Show shaped a lot of how I view the world around me today, meaning I have a great sense of humor!

With it recently turning the big 40 cast members Tim Curry, Susan Sarandon, Barry Bostwick, Meat Loaf and Patricia Quinn reunited for a photo shoot and discussion of the cultural phenomenon.

So raise a glass propose a toast and have some Meat Loaf while you're at it...!

Happy Rocky Horror Saturday!

Friday, Bloody Friday...

"It's Not The Getting Ready, It's The Clean Up"
Lady Gaga & Matt Bomer
I don't know about you, but after the Wednesday premiere of American Horror Story: Hotel my appetite for all things bloody has spiked.

Vampire type things really hit me where I live as I always wanted to be one when I was a young lad. Yep, it's true!

And nothing beats an orgy that ends in blood lust I always say. That's one of those reasons vampires will always be cooler than us mere mortals.

So I am leaving you with the image of Lady Gaga and Matt Bomer with their blood soaked victims post orgasm for the weekend.

Yes, Gaga and Bomer paid tribute to the the great vampire film The Hunger, by channeling their inner Catherine Deneuve and David Bowie, and I loved it!

I can't wait for next week's episode...bring it, I want more!

Where In The World Is Taylor Hicks?

Taylor Played Guitar
Jamming With The Good and the Gilly

For those of you wondering where the season five winner has been, wonder no more...


Taylor Hicks is on-deck to perform the National Anthem next week at the Major League Baseball Division Series Playoff Game Five at Kansas City Royals, which will be televised on Fox Sports 1 (FS1). He is also on the ice to perform this week at the Nashville Predators' home opener, Thursday October 8th.

Taylor is in the studio now putting the finishing touches on a new album slated for release in 2016, with an ambitious schedule to follow.


Webster Public Relations is honored to announce the addition of the music powerhouse to the firm’s long roster of legendary clients. "Taylor Hicks is a great artist," says Webster PR President Kirt Webster. "We are excited to begin working with him to help continue to build his brand awareness."

Taylor Hicks is one of the most beloved and popular American Idol winners of all time. From the start, Hicks’ material on the mega-hit show set him apart, with a unique take on Country, Southern Soul, R&B and Blues. Sixty-four million votes were cast and nearly 37 million American viewers and more than 200 million viewers worldwide tuned in to crown Hicks the Season 5 winner of American Idol, making it one of the most-watched TV events of the last decade.

Hicks’ star continued to rise after he stepped off the Idol stage. Less than three weeks after his Idol victory, his debut single, “Do I Make You Proud,” entered at #1 on Billboard’s Hot 100, Pop 100, and Single Sales Charts. His self-titled album (Arista), debuted at #2 on the Billboard 200 and was quickly certified RIAA Platinum. Hicks is the first male Idol winner to be featured on a Grammy Award-winning album, Jimmy Fallon’s “Blow Your Pants Off,” which took home the 2013 Grammy for Best Comedy Album.

Hicks’ career has included stints on Broadway, a national tour with a hit musical, as well as headlining Paris, Las Vegas and other Caesars Entertainment properties all over the United States. He has performed with an amazing variety of artists such as Willie Nelson, Snoop Dogg, Gladys Knight, Earth Wind and Fire, and The Allman Brothers.

Taylor celebrates his birthday today which he shares with music industry vet Simon Cowell, and fellow musicians John Mellencamp, Yo-Yo Ma, and Michael W. Smith. Taylor is quick to point out that he will be 14,244 days old.

Hypodermic Sally @ Your Service

Hypodermic Sally Will Give You A Prick
Sarah Paulson
American Horror Story: Hotel with Lady Gaga premieres tonight! I wonder if you can do a check in there for your Facebook account? 

Well as much as I am Gaga to see the Lady as The Countess, I am equally stoked to see the amazing Sarah Paulson get to play her darkest character to date in the AHS universe a junkie named Hypodermic Sally.

Once upon a time little Sally had dreams of becoming a singer, but the dream is now over and she is now one of the minions that call The Cortez home.

Given the back story and the characters name I am going to venture to say that Hypodermic Sally is based on real life rock legend Janis Joplin.

I hear Sally has a pretty horrifying encounter with the The Addiction Demon and his drill bit penis. Yeah, you won't want to miss that!

Watch your back tonight! at:
