Didn’t Bjork have such a horrible experience with von Trier while making Dancer in the Dark that she swore off film and turned down an offer from Peter Jackson to record a song for the Lord of the Rings soundtrack?

It’s okay to look because they’ve aged spectacularly and they deserve to be looked. I’m gay and even I can’t look away.

It’s one of two New York Magazine t-shirts that I own. The other is Dorian Corey from Paris is Burning with the headline “The Drag Queen Had a Mummy In Her Closet!”

When Anna Nicole died, I cried. As a little piece of queer white trash, she is a saint to me. I have a t-shirt with an old New York Magazine cover featuring Anna Nicole in white cowboy boots and denim short-shorts, eating off-brand Cheetos (the kind that come in the big jars) with the headline “White Trash Nation”. I…

I love bad wigs. They’re a bold fashion statement. I wish I could find it, there was a picture last year of a lady at some baseball game and she had a terrible wig, that was not put on right and then, in her purse, you could clearly see another bad wig. I guess in case she changed her mind or something...

Coke Chic was the late 70's to early 80's.

(in literature, no one wanted to touch an orphan in real life)

Oh my God. I love that. Maybe one is A-Rod as a normal centaur and the other is A-Rod as a reverse centaur.

Liberace had The Creation of Adam recreated on the ceiling of the master bedroom with his head painted on Adam’s body.

Last year, Burt Reynolds had an estate auction filled with portraits he had commissioned of…

I think the estimate went down because it’s not as old as they originally thought. Age is a big factor in the value of an art piece.

I mean, $3k to $5k is still pretty impressive, and the novelty of owning this particular piece probably doubles the value.

I’m not a Kardashian fan and I want this painting just because it’s so absurd. I mean, it’s not that weird painting Michael Jackson commissioned of himself as a Greco-Roman Deity surrounded by cherubs, but it’s up there.

Personally, I think the Picasso comparison was a bit dramatic. I mean, Picasso actually did pottery and it’s definitely unique and imaginative, but it has a completely different aesthetic. It’s surprisingly cutesy.

However, I could see comparisons to just a general art movement like German Expressionism.

Yes. I think it all boils down to conservatives. Even about a decade before the Wardrobe Malfunction, there was this big stink (tied up with, but less famous than, the Mapplethorpe and ‘Piss Christ’ controversies) because PBS was using federal money to showcase independent films with transgressive subject matter and…

ABC is network television. Network television restrictions were loosened in the 90's until Janet Jackson’s nipple happened. I can remember reading news stories about how, after that Super Bowl, ABC told the producers of NYPD Blue that they had to cut the brief nudity that had become one of the shows hallmarks at that…

HBO is premium cable. That means that you have to actually pay for HBO channels (usually bundled with Cinemax) separately and because customers are paying extra for HBO, the network doesn’t have to depend on advertisers.

AMC is basic cable, that means they answer to advertisers. Interestingly, there was a time when…

No. I think she was being shady and calling Zayn a copycat.

ETA: Oh, just read the Instagram post with the ‘cutie pie’ part. I still think her remarks can be read as a little shady though. I mean, it’s not like the things she pointed to; black lights, Tron, and bare skin/denim combo are the sole domain of Azealia…

Others have pointed this out, in visual design (and even in the arts) it’s a collection of images used for reference. Like, if I were a fashion designer and I were doing a collection inspired by ‘90's Alt-Glam’ I would go through vintage magazines and compile images of musicians like Bjork and Marilyn Manson, Gregg…

I never realized this and now that someone has pointed it out, it just seems so obvious. Like, I assumed the kitten was named after Keanu Reeves, but I never thought about John Wick.

Of particular interest are his insights on Hillary Clinton, who he has in the past described variously as “witchy” and resembling Nurse Ratched, the main antagonist inOne Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.
