the other minogue


here’s the new clip for dannii minogue’s “touch me like that.” the jason nevins collaboration is probably the gayest disco anthem i’ve heard in a while, and despite my better judgment i actually like the song.

whoever came up the video’s concept, however, should be punished. her costume is tacky and the set is uninspired. she obviously doesn’t have the same budget as her sister!

going out on a limb

connellydress4.jpg

i meant to write about this monstrosity the other day, but somehow it slipped through the cracks.

so here’s jennifer connelly at the premiere to her new flick reservation road. it’s probably another snoozer, so jen tried to liven things up with this blinding dress and equally hideous heels. god bless her!

i don’t know what to say really. the pattern, the stitching, the puffy shoulders. my lord! would anyone look good in that? gwen stefani wouldn’t go near it. even bai ling would think twice before trying it on.

on another note, jennifer needs to eat something. she’s looking hungry, which might explain her lapse in judgement. i’ve said it before and i’ll say it again: a skinny bitch is a confused bitch!!

unrequited

dumbledore.bmpi’m not really a harry potter nerd, but i thought the latest revelation from author j.k. rowling would be of interest to queer fans of the outrageously successful series. (i know you’re out there!)

apparently harry potter’s hogwarts headmaster, albus dumbledore, is a dicksucker. according to rowling, he was head-over-heels in love with another powerful man wizard, gellert grindewald — though unfortunately they never crossed wands in the way that dumbledore really wanted.

the fact that grindewald was evil likely had something to do with this, though it didn’t help that he didn’t play for dumbledore’s team. poor gay wizard. ain’t that a bitch?

having standards is no fun

take_that.jpgi’ve never really big a huge fan of boy bands. not that i felt it was too gay for me — i saw the spice girls live in concert, for god’s sake — they just never put out songs that tickled my fancy. yes, i did enjoy a few of *n sync’s later singles (”pop” is amazing!!), but other than that i never understood the craze.

then take that, minus original member robbie williams, made a comeback in their native britain. the only song america ever heard from them was way back in 1996. “back for good” was released shortly before robbie ditched the group and went solo. after nearly a decade of the others trying it alone (with minimal success), they reunited and completely exploded. for the second time.

anyway, i’m only slightly ashamed, because their new tunes are actually pretty good. i guess there will always be a stigma attached to “boy bands,” at least for our generation. thank you, backstreet boys.

so here’s take that’s latest video, “rule the world,” which appeared over the closing credits of stardust (that michelle pfeiffer fantasy flick that sort of fizzled at the box office this past summer). the clip isn’t that exciting, but it’s very catchy and if you haven’t heard these guys in a while, it’ll give you a good idea as to what they’ve been up to. as an added bonus i’ve also included last year’s “shine,” my personal favorite, after the jump.

looking fit

lilyallenrocks.jpg

what do we have here? i can hardly believe it, but it’s lily allen looking absolutely amazing. she ditched the empire waist for a figure-hugging number at a recent fashion rocks afterparty in london. it’s not that lily was a big girl before, but now she is in very good shape. watch out winehouse!

hypocrisy

perezhilton.jpg

is anyone else annoyed by douche supreme perez hilton? he’s one of the biggest morons on the planet, even if his web site is totally addictive.

how is that someone can berate celebs for doing drugs and gaining a few pounds when that person is no better?? i’ve heard from reliable sources that mr. hilton likes the nose candy, and we all know he could stand to lose a few… so how can he get away with calling everyone else out for those very same reasons? i guess it’ll keep happening as long as people keep visiting his site. but still, where does he get off?

mad hatter masquerade

roisinhat.jpg

i might be mistaken, but that looks like a paper plate on roisin murphy’s head. this shot comes from the irish electronic artist’s new video, “let me know,” which is actually a top dance track. unfortunately this fact is overshadowed in the clip by the aforementioned headgear and her questionable dance moves.

several blogs are all aflutter over ms. murphy, but i don’t think her solo stuff measures up to her finest moments in moloko. remember them? probably not.

after the jump, for compare/contrast purposes, you can watch “let me know” as well as moloko’s biggest hit, “the time is now.” Continue Reading »

eyebrows notwithstanding

looks like robyn is batting 3 for 3. here’s the video for the swedish pop star’s new u.k. single, “handle me,” which is almost as good as the fab clip she did for “konichiwa bitches. i love how she fuses hip-hop, pop and electronic so effortlessly. why can’t more artists do so with such wit and style? let’s just pretend to not notice the way those black brows clash with her blonde locks.

after robyn’s previous single “with every heartbeat” hit no. 1 in britain (despite a so-so video), her prospects this go-round are very promising. hopefully if that track takes off in the u.s., which could very well occur, “handle me” will cross the pond as well.

if not, at least we can enjoy it and feel slightly superior, no?

obligatory girls aloud post

girlsaloudsexyno.jpg

does the world really need another moderately dance-able, severely overproduced girls aloud record? most likely no, but we’re getting one regardless!

after repeated listens, i’ve grown to strongly dislike their last single, “sexy! no no no…,” probably because it wasn’t that great to begin with. anyway, they’ve got another single that i could take or leave, and so far it doesn’t grate on my nerves. you can listen to “call the shots” in the media player in the sidebar, or over at girls aloud on myspace. it reminds me of last call for some reason, like “alright, finish up your fruity cocktail and get out!” don’t you think?

at least the girls are looking fit, and providing inspiration for drag queens and drunk slags all across the sceptered isle. but still, you’d think by now they would have learned a few things from the sugababes, who continue to get better with each record. apparently not.
