This band was on 4AD a million years ago but if you ever get a chance to pick up their only album "Blow," do so! It's great. Like a stoned Cocteau Twins freakout.

Epitafios (a little late but)

I am watching it now on DVD. It's a bit like a porteno Dario Argento pelicula... I really like it.

Angie, Angie, when will those clouds all disappear?

Ridiculous

Blogs like A Socialite's Life are now adding a little 'written by' credit after each post! As if making fun of Sienna Miller's dog's collar is 'writing.' Talk about a bunch of fame-ho's! It ain't journalism, ladies... (and if you're going to take credit for it, at least make it interesting and SPELL the stuff right!)

Project Runway Episode 307

There is only one thing to quote from that episode:

''Five, six, seven — it doesn't make that big of a difference. I'll just throw it on the pile with the other ones.'' Laura B.

Finally!

The most excellent Samia Farah has a website (under construction, grrrr...) with a gallery up now!

Project Runway Episode 306

Only one thing to say about this episode.

Kayne- if you are going to talk about Laura behind her back with Robert on camera and be a total two-face, then how can you get upset when Laura talks to you to your face on camera? I cannot wait for him to be auf'd. His self-righteous 'let's all hug Alison and not argue' thing at the end was soooo annoying.

“Fame Had Its Way With Us!”

Clearing away the negativity today...

Back to our regularly scheduled programs...

"I do need to see that."

When I look at this I can hear her voice and it makes me wanna choke someone

If this doesn't turn your stomach...

"But Bush's Republicans hoped the raid would yield political gains.

"I'd rather be talking about this than all of the other things that Congress hasn't done well," one Republican congressional aide told AFP on condition of anonymity because of possible reprisals.

"Weeks before September 11th, this is going to play big," said another White House official, who also spoke on condition of not being named, adding that some Democratic candidates won't "look as appealing" under the circumstances."

Dregs alert

It's crap.

Project Runway Episode 305

Kayne. Jeffrey.

Who do I dislike more? Kayne's Monroe dress was right out of Best Little Whorehouse in Texas meets Elvira, Mistress of the Dark. I cannot stand Kayne. He looks like he is made out of botox and chewing gum.

Jeffrey's Madonna dress was like sofa upholstery glued onto a woman. Terrible. With all his bluster about how good he is?? He sucks. I wish Laura had simply choked him along his neck tattoo.


Final five predictions so far? Laura, Michael, Uli, Angela, Jeffrey (there is always an ass in there somewhere.)

I don't like Robert or Allison's designs. Vincent is just totally insane.

"An update on Villain Watch: Jeffrey is the new Keith. He argued and yelled at Angela for (supposedly) breaking a machine and subsequently not fixing it. According to Jeffrey, it was making his sewing more difficult. PUHLEEESE! Last season, several of my fellow designers cried wolf for the same reasons. Somehow, among all the broken machines and needles, the rest of us managed to present an outfit on the runway.

Coming to Angela's defense, Laura managed to treat Jeffrey as her sixth child and put him in his place without even batting an eyelash. Jeffrey then stooped to an all-time Project Runway low, one-upping even Santino, by wishing Laura would have a stroke! Jeffrey should have spent less time name-calling and more time creating a better outfit for his chosen fashion icon, Madonna. His design looked like a bad hybrid of Tina Turner's Mad Max costume and a goth teenager at a local mall." Nick Verreos at People.com

OK, I really thought I was going to dislike her..

but Jackie Warner is the bomb- she's just so charismatic. If Workout comes back for a second season they should just focus on Jackie- I don't care about former marines or prissy girlie trainers. Just give me Jackie telling some gorda to move her ass.

It's time to speak out...

STOP THIS RIGHT NOW! This is part of a Howard the Duck costume- it is not fashionable footwear. Either you stop wearing them or go to Alaska and catch King Crabs on the high seas... Yuck, go to Ihatecrocs.com right now and confess!!!

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Viscountess of Ashby St Ledgers, Miss Grace Jones

DIS-GRACED?

A 'smurf gone wrong'? A smurf that will cut a bitch if she finds the little pithy Londoner who said that! Go Grace! Lose your freakin' mind. And cut a new album!

Mad, bad Grace steals show
By Tom Teodorczuk and Robert Mendick, Evening Standard

Wearing a ski hat and a top made out of what appeared to be black clingfilm, Grace Jones produced a bravura performance to overshadow Patrick Swayze's opening night in the West End. (Excuse me- I could upstage Swayze, my cat could too- JDD)

The singer/actress was invited to the aftershow party in Soho and her act was pure Jones. One eyewitness described her look as that of a "Smurf gone wrong". Some suggested that next time the diva gets dressed she should take off the dark glasses first.

Then she performed her trademark slap - the one that decked chat show host Russell Harty - not just once, but repeatedly. This time, the target of her affectionate punching was a young photographer.

After hitting the paparazzo with her customary vim and vigour, she gave him a kiss and a cuddle. Then she pulled out a middle finger and waved it around - no doubt testing wind direction and speed - before appearing to delve into her blouse and threatening to display her left breast.

Jones was accompanied by Viscount Wimborne, to whom she has been engaged for two years. Aged 41, he is 17 years her junior and has earned the soubriquet "Edward Scissorhands" for his unkempt appearance.

He is spending £10million on restoring his family's Northamptonshire estate after inheriting £30million in 1993. Should the couple ever marry, Jones would become the Viscountess of Ashby St Ledgers.

Project Runway Episode 304

Keith- you crazy freak, what were you thinking? And what did you do to Laura that she hates you soooo much. Angela is the Jade of Project Runway. Hysterically in over her head and WINNING challenges! Crazy. Kayne continues to rub me the wrong way. "You realize you did this to yourself" he says to Keith. Ummm, yeah I think Keith realizes it. Gawd... whatever- rules are rules etc, but Kayne benefits from one less (psycho) person with taste on the show, I assure you!

Respect!

Tanya Roberts!
