Twenty years after her first album was released, Dido has returned with her fifth album, Still On My Mind. In my gay opinion, from the first note, Still On My Mind is without a doubt a Dido album. Sometimes when a diva releases a new album there’s talk of “evolving” or “branching out” but not…
Tuesday evening: It’s night and I’m driving in my car (I can safely assume Debbie Gibson’s “Only In My Dreams” was playing on my iPod) into a gravel parking lot of an unmarked brick building with no windows. I get out of my car looking for an entrance. I hear voices from the other side…
For all of those who watched my January video and have been waiting all month for the next installment, wait no longer, welcome to my February. For most people, February is all about Valentine’s Day. In my gay opinion, Valentine’s Day is a bull shit holiday made-up by Hallmark to sell more cards…
Last month my gym announced that it was being taken over. The new gym wasn’t offering as many classes (I need someone to tell me what to do) and wanted access to my bank account for payment. In my gay opinion, it was time to look for a new gym. I am, in no way,…
In my gay opinion, making a New Year’s resolution is one of the worst forms of self harm. It’s a subtle way of saying that you’re not good enough as you are so the only way to be a better person is to change. You have 365 days and if you quit or are unable…
This is going to be the post where I date myself (I don’t mean dinner for one at my favorite vegan restaurant, not having to share my snuck-in Twizzlers at the local family-run movie theater, and dessert back at my place…wink, wink) and take you all the way back to the 80’s. That’s when electronic…
My partner watches all those “Making A Murderer” sort of documentaries where they investigate old crime cases with people who are wrongfully imprisoned. He gets annoyed by the injustices of the judicial system due to one’s socioeconomic status. When he goes off about it I plaster a smile on my face, go to my mental…
I have never claimed to have cinematic taste. Give me a trashy B-list celebrity cult flick or made for TV movie any day. So when I discovered that Hulu had a holiday section with trashy Christmas rom-com’s, I was all over it. There may only be 12 Days Of Christmas but there’s way more horrible…
This time of year I’m always curious to see which divas are releasing Christmas albums. This year only one diva released an album worth buying, at least in my gay opinion, and that’s Ingrid Michaelson. Ingrid did a CD signing in New York City to promote the new album which I went down for. Unfortunately…
The thing that Jenifer Lewis and I have most in common (besides being funny, strong, beautiful, African American women) is our undying love of New York City. Lucky for me, New York was one of the stops on Jenifer’s book tour to promote her autobiography The Mother Of Black Hollywood. Sure it meant waking up…
