She makes me want to use Crystal Meth

It would be worth the rehab just to have Kristin Chenoweth, Interventionist, sing to me at my intervention.

Bigger, Better and Longer

I posted earlier this year about the awesome video from How I Met Your Mother called Sandcastles in the Sand.

I found that you can actually get the full video from iTunes for free! It's longer, includes the full song and did I mention that it's free? It definitely holds up over time. If you've ever watched the show I'm sure you'll find it a hoot.

Hillary!

My Hillary shirt and I had a great time at Baltimore Gay Pride. I did get funny looks from the Obama Pride booth but I got hugs and some great comments from a lot of people there. I still love me some Hillary.

Bradley Whitford!

A last minute decision on where to eat for dinner found us running into Bradley Whitford, currently starring in the Tony-award winning Boeing, Boeing. Love, him, love him, love him! I miss West Wing.

Doctor Horrible's Sing-Along

Joss Whedon, creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer is working on a new project titled Doctor Horrible's Sing-Along.

How can something with Joss Whedon, Neil Patrick Harris and Nathan Fillon be anything but incredible?

You can check out the trailer here.

RIP Mitch Mullany

I always thought Mitch Mullany was so cute and funny. His show Nick Freno: Licensed Teacher was horrible but I watched every episode because of him. I'm certainly not used to reading about someone my age dying.

What the hell?

TNT has started a new way to advertise. They literally pause a show while it is airing, the ad shows up in the bottom corner and when it's done the show starts again. I just saw this during Family Guy on TNT. Well, Mr. Bill Engvall, there's one more reason I won't see your show.

Despicable.

is David......Ahhhhhhhhh!

People are upset because the American Idol finale ran late and their Tivos didn't always let them see which David won. If memory serves, American Idol finales always run long. Someone taped what her Tivo recorded along with her great reaction...

Vindication

Remember how much I worried about the movie Hairspray?

Well I was right, it was awful. Just putting famous people in a movie does not make it good. John Travolta was just awful, Queen Latifah was even worse. The whole spirit of the original movie/musical was just thrown out the window to make a buck. And that new song they added, "Ladies Choice"? Horrendous.

Harvey Fierstein (the original Edna) recently did an interview where they asked what he thought of the movie. His reply...

[Looking nauseated.] It was hard to watch - I think they missed the point. I'm very glad it made $100 million, or whatever it was. I'm the ghostwriter, so I get the checks. Send me the checks, John Travolta!

Things Younger Than John McCain

Like the Hindenberg disaster. This is too funny! Not the disaster, the web site.

I've come around

I used to think that the comic Brewster Rockit Space Guy! was pretty stupid but I've come around.  It's actually pretty intelligent and funny.

Today's Mother's Day strip is especially funny.  Check it out.  If you read this after Mother's Day, click on Archive and pick 05-11-2008.

Can't Speak French

Every once in a while a song grabs you on the first listen and your brain just gets a little more mushy for having heard it.  Can't Speak French by Girls Aloud did that to me recently and I can't stop listening to it.  Here is my favorite version of the song and here is the video.  Pure poppy goodness.

I Know My Kid's a Star

I don't get into many reality shows but I have been sucked in by I Know My Kid's a Star.  Having performed through my school years, having gone to a Performing Arts High School and then having done performing arts Sign Language Interpreting, I find this show extremely interesting.  The delusions, the egos, the Moms wanting to make up for their broken dreams, all so dramatic.  The kids with obnoxious mothers actually are pretty cool and know what's going on with their Mothers and at times have even tried to stand up to them.  The Moms of course don't want to hear it.  Only one girl has any sort of talent, of course, but now it's all about the drama between the Moms.  I can't believe I watch a show hosted by Danny Bonaduce.  Ugh.

I dare you to watch it only once...

Ah, Robin Sparkles you fake Canadian teen Pop Star, I can't get enough of you.  As someone who still loves Debbie (oh, sorry, Deborah) Gibson, I'm the perfect target audience for this.  I could have picked about 100 umm 100,000 guys hotter than James Van Derbeek (sp)?

If you don't watch How I Met Your Mother it's time to start!  This is the second Robin Sparkles spoof they have done.

Check out Sandcastles In The Sand. (better quality video with the links)

And in case you missed it, here is her first video Let's Go To The Mall.

I Dare You

Sick as a dog. Still. Hate it.

I dare you to watch Having Our Say: The Delany Sisters' First 100 Years without crying at least once. Let me know if you didn't cry so I'll know where to send a card of condolence and an electric blanket to warm your frozen heart.

Rick Astley would never...

Many thanks to Electroqueer...

A Sad Day, A Happy Day, A Broadway Day

What's sad...

Today is the last day for The Color Purple on Broadway. Loyal readers will know I have had a hate/love relationship with this musical and I have no idea how it is now that Fantasia is gone but I am still sad to see it go.

What's happy...

Kristin Chenoweth is performing at the Oscars tonight!

Bunnies and Cupcakes

I can't believe I watched an entire Microsoft ad. Wait, wait, don't go away. It has Amy Sedaris and bunnies and cupcakes!

Much Better

A new video for Paula Abdul's song "Dance Like There's No Tomorrow" has been released and it's much better than what they put together for the Super Bowl. While watching it I couldn't help but think about how much more I would have liked it if I didn't know what I now know about crazy Paula. I like my stars to be mysterious.

RIP Madge

Emily Perry, who played Dame Edna's sidekick Madge Alsop has died at age 100. She never spoke but was always so funny. I especially like how Dame Edna fleshed out her character in her megaselling book My Gorgeous Life: An Adventure.
