PARTY MONSTER....VIEW THIS FILM!!

Okay, for those of you who have never seen/heard of Party Monster, it takes place in NYC during the late 80s/early 90s. The movie is based on the book Disco Bloodbath by James St. James (Seth Green's character), which is a true story about Michael Alig's (Mac Culkin's character) rise to fame in the clubscene.

From Wikipedia:

"Party Monster (2003) is a drama/dark comedy that details the rise and fall of infamous homosexual^[1][2]New York party promoter Michael Alig. The movie stars former child star Macaulay Culkin as the drug addled "King of the Club Kids". Also in the film are Seth Green as the flamboyant and slightly smarter James St. James, Dylan McDermott as Alig's boss/father figure Peter Gatien, Chloë Sevigny as Alig's girlfriend/fag hag Gitsie, Wilmer Valderrama as his onetime boyfriend DJ Keoki, Wilson Cruz as drug dealer/Club Kid wannabe Angel Melendez, and Marilyn Manson as Christina, a transsexual member of Alig's entourage. A number of real life club kids appeared as extras, including fashion designer Richie Rich and David LaChapelle's transsexual muse Amanda Lepore.

The film is based on St. James' novel Disco Bloodbath, and details his friendship with Alig, which fell apart as Alig's drug addiction worsened, and ended after he murdered Melendez and went to prison. "


And no, I did not just give anything away; you find out about the murder in the first scene.

Anyyyyyway, this movie is scary at times, heartbreaking at times, mind blowing at times, and hilarious at times. I will admit that I find Mac's performance to be a little annoying at times (although I know this is how the real Michael Alig acted); however, SETH GREEN STEALS THE SHOW!! He is absolutely brilliant!!

Alright, you have your assignment; NOW GO!

PS: I also highly recommend researching the phenomena of the Club Kids, as it is highly fascinating (at least to me anyway).

Britney Sightings.....where is she now?

According to Perez, Britney is all over the place, and no one really knows quite where she is.


First she was in Manhatten. No wait, then she was in Mexico. No, she was in Baja, CA. Now, apparently, she's back home in LA.

She's a real-life Where's Waldo (complete with pink wig).

My advice? Stop jet-setting for publicity, and focus on your upcoming court date about your CHILDREN!!!! Apparently, K-Fed wants her to be court ordered to not see the kids til April. But what's four months when you're busy frequenting the Starbucks of the country with an unattractive, womanizing Papparazzo?

PS: Do you think Britney's current song on her iPod is "Addiction" by Kanye? Perhaps.

VMA's; minute by minute commentary

Britney Spears' performance
So her first performance since.....she went crazy, I guess. It was...decent, I'll say. First of all, the costume? Yuck. She was wearing...basically a sparkly bra and underwear with knee-high boots. She could have kept the top if she had put some pants on. Her butt was jiggling the whole time. So Britney isn't as energetic as she once was. Although I was never a huge fan of hers, I always gave her props for putting on a good show. Where was the enthusiasm, Brit? She literally walked from dance block to dance block. It was almost lazy. She did have a couple of cool moves, but they in no way made up for the fact that she was so obviously lip synching it was painful to watch. At some points she didn't even move her lips...like there wasn't even an attempt at looking legit. All in all, I'd give her a C for effort....I mean, the chick's been through a lot. Keep practicing, Brit.

Sarah Silverman's opening monologue
Crazy as usual. I usually laugh at her coz she makes me uncomfortable;although, she just told one joke that made me crack up: "So I was backstage, and I saw C-Lo. I asked him if he had encountered any racism. And he gave me this really weird response. He said, 'I'm Kanye West'." Other than that funny joke, same 'ol Sarah Silverman.

Alicia Keys presenting
Ummmmm....where has she been? She is way too shiny.

Nicole S and Eve presenting
Where has Eve been too? Nicole looked stunning as usual.

Kanye West performance
I just love him. I don't care what anyone says.

Rihanna award
Her dress is gorgeous. It's a hot pink number, and I want it.

Maroon 5 performing
Adam Levine is just so yummy. I'm disappointed that this was just a "filler" performance, and we only got to see like one minute of it.

Justin Timberlake award
I honestly can't tell you what award he just won. I'm too busy staring and drooling.

50 Cent/Kanye
The little face-off they just did was hilarious. For those of you who don't know: both Kanye and 50's albums are dropping on Tuesday (9/11). 50 has announced that if Kanye outsells him, 50 will retire. They're not even talking to each other.

Beyonce award
She won 'Best Collaboration' with Shakira. She looks beautiful as always, but I don't quite know how I feel about her toga-inspired dress. Her boobs are about to pop out.

Chris Brown performance
One word: DAMN! This dude can DANCE! I am in awe of him. Rihanna looks beautiful too.

Justin Timberlake award
Again, I just wanna crawl through the TV screen. His comments about Chris Brown being young are funny.

Ludacris not going on stage
So Fergie just won an award, and she couldn't make it. The presenter (I don't even know who this kid is) just jokingly invited Ludacris onstage, and Luda declined! C'mon, Luda....I don't see you winning any awards.

Pamela Anderson
Same as always.....at least her dress was some-what modest.

Kanye performance (new song)
Never heard this song before...don't really like it, but Kanye is still always fun to watch.

Rihanna performance
I love her little punkish, Madonna circa 1985 inspired mini-dress.

Nelly presenting
Ummm....holding a beer and can barely get his words out. Classy.

Alica Keys performance
I don't like her headband thingy. I miss the Alicia who used to pound the shit out of a piano. I don't really like the little gospel group in the background. Wow, this just turned into a church gathering.

Jamie Fox and Jennifer Garner presenting
Did anyone else just see the tech guy like push Jennifer down the steps? Anyway, Jamie Fox is crazy, and Jennifer looks gorgeous as usual. hahaha...Jamie is cracking me up.

Best New Artist: Gym Class Heroes
Probably the only award these guys will even win.

50 Cent performance
If you're trying to promote your new album, why would you perform "In Da Club"? Promote your new shit!

Mary J. Blige
Mary, I don't like your blonde bob. Sorry.

Dr. Dre
Wait, he's presenting an award? So they had a presenter present a presenter? Weird. Dang I thought he was performing.

Rihanna--Video of the Year
Wow, this is Rihanna's year. Really love her hair!

Young Joc and Diddy
Diddy: "It's not over til I saw it's over." Man, this dude is just full of himself in general.
Young Joc: "Don't go nowhere!" Mannnnnn, bad grammar is sooooo cool!!!

Nelly Furtado/Timbaland/JT
Nelly Furtado: gorgeous

Laser lights are hurting my eyes.

Timbaland: Wow, I never realized how buff he is. :)

JT: O.....M....G. Britney Spears, wtf the fuck were you thinking let him go???!!??

"Give It to Me": I was hoping they'd all perform this song! Well.....that ending was abrupt.

And so is mine.
