Was Chi-Chi’s the kind of place where they would put a (ew) communal hat on your head and sing to you if they knew it was your birthday? I have a very faint memory of that.

Re: a Kardashian organizing her pajamas (sigh.) When Entertainment Weekly ended, I started getting People in the mail. It is so inane. Fluff piece after fluff piece, after advertorial, with some murder or “I escaped a serial killer” stories for spice. It’s either straight PR or ads, which are basically ads. I really…
The Simpsons. I’ve seen every episode.
I watched all the available seasons of Central Park when I had a free trial of Apple TV+, and I honestly couldn’t tell the difference between Bell and Raver-Lampman’s voices, and I was listening for differences! I really wish this show were on a different platform - I never feel like paying for Apple TV+, and the show…
They just came out with new Encanto toys, after what seems like one thousand years. Source - me, going to the store (after watching Encanto many many many times. Yes, I’m a parent, but it’s just really good.)
I love that Laraine Newman can put on HBO Max and see both her kids - Hannah on Hacks, and Spike as the water demon on Los Espookys (which she was also on, the last season was so long ago I forgot!) I’m so glad season 2 is finally here.
It didn’t, when I made that comment. Both the slide and the list of slides said “Brian.”
Roy Kent’s real name is Brett.
I remember Kristen Zang - she’s from Royal Oak, MI (a suburb of Detroit, not “the boondocks” as many internet sources say.) She was hot stuff in the local gossip columns as a very young person for a minute back in the day. Edit - right, she dated Michael Hutchence. There were rumors about him pulling her out of a…
I went to see Spring Awakening many years ago, and had mixed feelings about it - a few days ago I kind of scanned through the “reunion special” on HBO and finding out that Lea Michele was either workshopping or rehearsing that show for like...seven years starting at a very young age, and that Jonathan Groff was in it…
Good luck with that when the problem is coming directly from inside the house. https://joinyaa.com/guides/how-did-car-dealerships-become-so-powerful/
Don’t get me started on Kamali, whose Walmart line had some excellent pieces (and a lot of non-excellent pieces) but a lot of what you see on vintage sites is priced like it is ORIGINAL when it is in fact, from Walmart :-(
Beware - the “Betsey Johnson” dresses of today may resemble her dresses of the past, but they are just cheap copies. After reading her adorable and surprising memoir (I always forget that she was married to John Cale!) in a fit of I-have-more-money-now-than-when-I-was-a-teen-and-couldn’t-afford-her-stuff I ordered a…
That sandworm is almost cute!
Props to Bjork for performing in an enormous, expensive down sleeping bag, I mean, Moncler/Valentino designer Pierpaolo Piccioli dress, as seen above. Looks hot.
I lived with three sorority girls in my freshman year dorm at our large midwestern college. I had to witness all their shit (minus social media, thank god) up close. It was fascinating from an anthropological standpoint, but even though some of their preppy fashion choices rubbed off on me (one of them tied my Bass…
Wiley’s done two “Judiths” - I’ve seen one up close, but not the other. I love his paintings.
That is excellent (and strangely coincidental) trivia!
I used to just think of the children of the wealthy and well-connected as “par for the course” in professions like acting, but I guess the young are now calling them nepo babies, a term that sends shivers down my spine. Anyway, this part seems tailor-made for a nepo baby of now like Deutch (mom is Lea Thompson who you…
Jane Curtin left the show 42 years ago. Let that sink in for a moment.
