From the description of the first piece entitled “THE CHER WITHIN:”
My painting “The Cher Within” depicts the magical moment when a drag performer prepares to cross the line between ambiguous guy in his underwear to full-on diva extraordinaire, in this case fashioned after his ultimate heroine, Cher. The painting also represents the diva in everyone, those who have actually taken their sequinned acts to the stage and those who may have offered more intimate performances behind bathroom doors, with towels for wigs and hairbrush microphones.
Prints of these amazing pieces of gaytastic art are available at Paul Richmond’s Etsy store. You might to check out his “NOAH’S GAY WEDDING CRUISE” featuring Rosie & Ellen!
E! Online is reporting that Hugh Jackman (yummy) and Robert Pattinson (ho-hum) were out together in Japan doing some karaoke. Hey, Hugh and Robert, if you want to avoid those gay rumors about the both of you, maybe singing karaoke together into the wee hours isn’t the best idea. Just a thought guys!
By far, the best acceptance speech of the night went to Dustin Lance Black, the MILK screenwriter and now Academy Award Winner. WOW! What a perfect speech from a talented young writer (and he’s not bad on the eyes either). Congrats DLB!!!
Because this blog can never have enough posts about the best movie ever made (not only in the 80’s, but of all time), here is the most awesome girl-revenge scene from “Girls Just Want To Have Fun”. They are totally going to invite people to homegirl’s b-day party who weren’t even invited! ZOMG PUNK RAWK.
I have been pretty hard-pressed all these years to figure out exactly which is my most absolute favorite part of this movie, because like duh, there are SO SO many. But the moment at 0:45 seconds with the drag queen coming out of the dressing room just has to be the best moment in cinematic history. Also don’t miss a blink-and-you’ll-miss-it cameo by Cindi Lauper at 1:45. At least I think it’s her, or it could be Linda Perry from 4 Non Blondes. IDK.
He’s blond, gorgeous, has muscles for days and leads a secret double life! No, I’m not talking about Matthew McConaughey. It’s He-Man, the childhood cartoon/action figure that made me think “I wonder what it would be like to do him up the butt”, and he may be back in a live-action movie. Let’s all try to forget the one with Dolph Lundgren (just plain bad). The big question is who will be playing Prince Adam/He Man and will he be as hot as the original? Who do you think should play “the most powerful man in the universe”?
Cheyenne, say it ain’t so!! Somewhere a little gay angel is not getting its wings. Xanadu, the gayest broadway show ever has closed. The gays should have kept this one running for years. Not only because the show was rolling in the aisles funny, but because it starred the most beautiful man on Broadway ever, Mr. Cheyenne Jackson (pictured above with the amazing Kerry Butler). But not to worry, the super talented kids are sure to be back on the boards soon. Until then, we’ll have to stick to watching the original Xanadu movie on DVD. It’s still as beautifully bad as ever!!
I don’t know if I quite understand the phenomenon that is Shwayze. But with his recent single Buzzin’ getting a healthy dose of airplay and a new reality show on Mtv, apparently some people do. First of all, the two words “Malibu” and “rapper” should never belong in the same sentence. And how can anyone ignore the rise of this middle-class lyricist with the annoyingly bad Malibu’s Most Wanted starring Jamie Kennedy:
Isn’t he basically a black version of Vanilla Ice? Anyway, the first time I listened to Buzzin’, I pseudo-liked it until I heard him shout out “representing for the 310″. I guess it gets pretty hard out there in the ‘bu what with all the surfers, celebrities, beach cruisers and drive-by white collar crime.
Ya’ll remember this little gem from 1985? This film is a classic tale of an unlikely romance between the innocent army brat ballet dancer and the tough guy from the wrong side of the tracks who just happens to have Olympic-level gymnastic skills. Hey, you gotta know when to triple front-flip off trees to get out of sticky street fighting situations right?
Starring a very pre-teen Sarah Jessica Parker 5,000 years before Sex and the City became a movie, the film follows her journey to the one thing every 80’s tween in pink spandex has always dreamed of: dancing on the cinematic equivalent of Mtv (yeah!). Also starring the always masculine Helen Hunt playing a female character and a 12 year old Brenda from 90210. This clip speaks for itself people:
