Chicago: “Complete and total exoneration for Roxie and Velma.”

She’s unrecognizable with that short 60s mom cut. 

Center Stage is great because it’s campy (and the dancing is good). Save the Last Dance is only okay and the dancing is silly BUT it has baby Kerry Washington.

My mom’s favorite movie of last year was Dinesh DSouza’s Death of a Nation, so I feel you. She texted me for weeks after, saying “every American needs to see this movie.”

Pete’s Dragon tried to do something interesting with the source material, unlike something like Beauty and the Beast which was mostly a shot-for-shot remake. I wouldn’t mind if they went the Pete’s Dragon route, as long as they’re doing this for the foreseeable future. 

He’s what would happen if Donald Trump read a book. 

Milo is the hot one and it’s not even close. And I’m enough of a fan that I saw Conor Oberst and the Mystic Valley Band.

My big resolution this year was to quit my daily Diet Coke and I feel so much better. I’m going to start being one of those snotty people who sneer at soda drinkers (not really, drink that soda, you only live once).

YES. That movie is such stupid fun. 

It’s worth listening to the podcast because it has some more up to date information about the charges she’s facing. The book is the best, imo. There’s a lot of nutso people who don’t make it into the podcast or documentary, like the Walgreens guy who didn’t even ask for any verification that the device worked before…

love to be topless with my French bulldog.

I believe Mary Kate has struggled with eating disorders for a long time. It ages you pretty quick. I feel for her. She was in the spotlight from birth and had creeps making countdowns for her 18th birthday. 

100% accurate

I’ve seen a couple of her videos and they were VERY Youtube humor, which is to say, not terribly funny unless you’re 13. 

The lip sync was super confusing to watch - I actually thought Honey had fallen off the stage. The song absolutely didn’t help, since it didn’t really have a big build or anything. I liked the concept of making them all lip sync but not the execution.

yeah that’s not any better, man. you’re not right here. 

Nah. No one deserves grief over a tv show, especially considering how toxic the fan base can be toward queens of color. Naomi slayed that lip sync and she chose her choice. It’s a game show and she won this round fairly. 

To be fair, pattern sizing has always been larger than ready-to-wear sizing. Pattern sizing remains much more consistent, though - a modern Simplicity 12 is still a 26.5" waist.

I think the singing and sound mixing might have been better. Most of the actors were clearly saving their voices for the live performance.
