Another Gay, Another Boycott

Gay leaders are calling for a boycott of "Hairspray" because, they say, star John Travolta's religion -- Scientology -- rejects gays and lesbians as members, and according to MSNBC, "operates reparative therapy clinics to 'cure' homosexuality." ...

Say it ain't so.... I really want to see Hairspray. Tim and I loved the musical when we saw it here last fall. I need to see how this one develops before I decide whether to boycott or not. Hopefully John(Tell me about it... Stud!!)Travolta defends himself, or will he just keep hangin around with those wacky Scientologists. OY VEY!!!

Venty McVentster

OK, I need to vent a bit. I still have not had one job interview. I have sent out roughly 100 resumes in the past 3 weeks, and still nada!! WTF is a Masters degree good for anyway. Finding a new career was the whole purpose of putting myself through the extra work and agony. Now I am wondering if it was worth it.

I have decided, after talking it over with Tim, that if I do not get any interviews next week, that I am going to find a job in retail again. Which sucks big time!!! Physically, I am healing but still at only 75%. I'm not sure I can even stand an entire 8 hour shift. But, alas, we need money. I have been off work since February. Luckily we have made it thus far. But this month I am not able to pay my cobra insurance payment (which means no physical therapy or continued recovery). So if I don't do something soon, the situation could could get worse.

I hate to think about going back to retail. The hours, the physical demands, and OH, the f-ing rude customers!!! But a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do. OMG, I'm starting to sound like Lothian, bitching and whining all the time.... wink wink, Lothian. OK, enough unpleasantness, I need something to make me happy and we all know what that it.... BEEFCAKE!!!!

MMMmmmm, That's better!!!

Paris and the Spice Girls

That's so not HOT!!! Paris Hilton is going back to Jail! While I am not a huge fan of hers, I am a bit torn as to whether she should be in jail that long. I know Drunk Driving is serious. And she does need to have consequences. She is clearly not stable at the moment, maybe so much as to hurt herself in jail. This may be shocking, as you all know how much I loathe Martha Stewart, but I have come to respect her so much more now. She didn't whine or complain about her prison time, she just did her time, and went on with it. I'm not sure Paris is that strong. I just don't want anything bad to happen to her. But maybe a few weeks in jail will help her become a better person. AT least a more popular and famous person, maybe we'll see the "Simple Life: Paris and Nicole in Jail". What hilarity!

Now onto the much more IMPORTANT news.... a Spice Girls Reunion Tour is being rumored to happen this Summer. YEAH!!! My gay prayers have been answered. If only this becomes reality. OMG, Baby, Sporty, Scary, Ginger, and the diva herself, Posh, live!! It's almost too much to handle. Now if only Britney would tour, my big fat gay summer would be complete.

No more McBigot!!!

Let the celebration begin.... McBigot is gone. Yes, it's true, Isaiah Washington has officially been fired from Grey's Anatomy. Thank God, ABC listened to the fans. Grey's Anatomy will be much better now. The show wasn't great last season mostly because I couldn't stand watching McBigot make nice with George on screen. It wasn't believeable. You could almost feel the tension. The only thing that could make GA better is when we get back our favorite mini-skirt, high-heel wearing doc, Addison, once the spinoff "Private Practice" tanks. If the pilot was any indication, it should be off the air before Christmas.

Xanadu

Tonight, myself and three of my top hags went to see Xanadu at Studio 35. What a mess that movie is. But damn was it fun!!! It has to be one of the campiest movies ever made. Look at all the Razzies it was nominated for...
Won: Razzie Award for Worst Director (Robert Greenwald)
Nominated: Worst Picture
Nominated: Razzie Award for Worst Screenplay
Nominated: Worst Actor (Michael Beck)
Nominated: Razzie Award for Worst Actress(Olivia Newton-John)
Nominated: Razzie Award for Worst "Original" Song("Suspended in Time")
Nominated: Worst "Musical" of Our First 25 Years

I can't believe there was a worse movie that year, but lo and behold, the Village People classic Can't Stop the Music was worse. Rent Xanadu if you haven't seen it, watch it again if you have. It's awesomely bad!
