Pauly Shore is the Man

They call him Jay ElecTramadaan Muhammad Asalaamica RasoulAllah Supana Watallah

"And his own story was as curious as his narrative
The tale of his life, is the tale of a writer of incredible ambition
An astute analyse and pundint, a lyricist, compassionate and callous
A reckless hedonist and disaffected malcontent." - Exhibit A (Transformations)

1919 – 2010

One of my favoirte works.

Earth Girls Are Easy

If you've never seen this movie, you must do so immediately. It's an 80's camp-classic, and it's fucking awesome. Geena Davis and Jeff Goldblum play the leads, and they were married when the movie was filmed. Probably one of the most gorgeous celebrity couples of all time, they kick Brangelina's sorry little asses. Jeff Goldblum is, was, and always will be a babe, and he's a total babe in this movie. In the film, three aliens crash their U.F.O. and wind up in the pool of a girl who lives in the valley. Because the pool water damaged the craft, they need to kill time until they can fix it. The girl (Geena Davis) and her friend (Julie Brown), who conveniently owns a salon, decide to give them "human" makeovers to fit in, and ruckus of epic proportion ensues. Also in it are Jim Carrey and Damon Wayans, who play the two other aliens. What more could you possibly ask for?

Tavi Inc.

If you know anything about the blogosphere, or fashion, for that matter, you've probably heard of Tavi, the 13-year-old fashion blogging sensation. Her blog, http://tavi-thenewgirlintown.blogspot.com/, has attracted attention from readers all over the world, and from some of the biggest names in fashion. She was personally invited to New York Fasion week, amongst tons of other incredible opportunities a 13 year old from the suburbs of Chicago could have possibly been given, including countless photoshoots for big publications by big photographers, to most recently becoming the muse for the Rodarte line. Anyways, for a girl of her age and upbringing, she has a suprising knowledge of fashion as well as a very sophisticated taste and an appreciation for fashion concepts most half the world probably couldn't understand. Amoung her favorites are Rei Kawakubo, founder of Comme des Garçons. When the designer collaborated with H&M to create an affordable line for them, Tavi was so excited that she couldn't help but find a more appropriate outlet of expression other than through song of course. Watch here (sorry, Vimeo won't let me embed): http://www.vimeo.com/2247337
Anyways, recently, a writer named Tanya Gold wrote a piece for The Guardian titled "Why I Hate Fashion". Read it here: http://www.guardian.co.uk/lifeandstyle/2010/jan/22/i-hate-fashion-tanya-gold. Quite frankly, it's insulting, and, in my personal opinion, completely nonsensical. Tavi wrote a response to this article, which you can read here: http://tavi-thenewgirlintown.blogspot.com/2010/01/fashion-basically-also-team-conan.html. It's awesome and perfectly well written in the satirical manner that Tavi is so well known for. Read it.

Fat Jew for Vice DO's & DON'Ts

"Something you may have noticed earlier, or may be noticing right now, as we tell you this, is that this month’s DOs & DON’Ts are not written by us. Well, technically they are by us, but us now includes a certain bonhomme of particular renown. His name is the Fat Jew and he will now introduce himself to you, thusly:

This month’s DOs & DON’Ts are written by me, the Fat Jew. I’m New York City’s fanciest, sleaziest, hunkiest, ruggedest, bummiest, and sauciest. I’m the ugly Rob Lowe. I’m one-quarter of the rap group Team Facelift—we’re a mix between Barbra Streisand and Wu-Tang Clan. I’m into pedicures, Tony Danza, honey mustard, ribbed turtlenecks, loofahs, not giving a fuck, frenzied behavior, tasteful floral arrangements, Jewish girls from Long Island, making poor decisions, shrimp in baskets, depression, cheap champagne, penny loafers, and watching drunk white girls at bars singing “Juicy.” I wrote these in the nude while surrounded by scented candles (sugar-cookie scent).You’re welcome.
THE FAT JEW"

Ecstatic Part II

Tickets are $45.00 in advance, $50.00 at the door.


(Love this track off The Ecstatic)

The Incident

PUTS in NYC

As you can probably tell from my blog, People Under the Stairs are my most favorite group ever. However, they'e based in L.A. and rarely come to the East Coast. Actually, they're not in the U.S. very often as they have a massive fan following in other countries so they end up playing in places like Brazil and Germany, etc. Buttttttttttt they're currently touring for Carried Away and are coming to NYC !!! I'm going, January 23rd @ Bowery Ballroom. 8:00 p.m. You should too, tickets are only $15.00.

Haus of Gaga

I'm really not sure how I feel about Lady Gaga and have been trying to figure it out for a while. Actually, I kind of suspect that she might actually be a man, as well as just plain insane as in crazy in the head, but that's a whole other story. For one thing, I commend her for doing, saying, and wearing whatever the fuck she wants. I think she's an incredible visionary and I don't think anyone can honestly deny that she's one of the most interesting acts to hit the music scene in a while. Whether you like her or not, she makes you think. She attracts attention, good or bad, and everyone talks about her. However, in terms of her music, it's not anything I'd ever listen to. Sure there are some catchy tunes but none of it appeals to me. It's not anything I'd ever voluntarily subject myself to listening. The good thing is that she can actually sing. I came across this video recently and can't stop listening to it. It's amazing/incredible.

Winter Tube

This show about a Morman polygamist family living in Utah is absolutely genuis, one of my favorites, and returning for its 4th season tonight. Sunday, January 10th @ 9:00 p.m. on HBO.

American Idol is my weakness, as I'm sure is the case for half of America, and it's returning for its 9th season. Replacing Paula Abdul as a permanent judge is Ellen Degeneres, with additional guest judges such as Victoria Beckham, Katy Perry, Mary J. Blige, and more. Tuesday, January 12th @ 8:00 p.m. on Fox.

After a terrible last season in L.A., Project Runway returns to NYC for what I'm hoping will be a better turnout than last's. Thursday, January 14th @ 10:00 p.m. on Lifetime.
