It’s been an interesting week so please forgive me for abandoning my posting… erm… post. On the upside, Prince Rogers Nelson seems to have been a huge success and we plan on having him back for more words of wisdom in the near future. Wilson Phillips may join him. And maybe Belinda Carlisle.
THIS IS GOING TO BE WONDERFUL
Anyone who knows me remotely would be aware that I am a Dusty Springfield obsessive. Therefore I cannot WAIT to see the new musical Dusty: The Original Pop Diva at the State Theatre in Melbourne. This review seems quite promising. Let’s all go together and then I can recite poignant passages from my Dusty biography at the pub for you all afterwards.
ANGIE AND BRAD - PREGNANT!
Which means it’s pretty much over for yours truly and the big-lipped hussy. BEFORE WE’D EVEN BEGUN! Brad Pitt is no doubt calling Jenny Shimizu and yelling “Ner ner nee ner ner!” into the receiver as we speak. The entire thing is even more astounding when one considers that the twosome, last we checked, were offically “not lovers”.
This makes Angelina the new Virgin Mary, Brad the new Joseph and in six months time a child will be born unto them and he shall have a mohican and he shall be the truth, the way and the light.
THE NEW KEVIN FEDERLINE SONG
Is hilarious and awful and mind-blowing and all things you’d imagine it to be. As Kevin and I are personal friends now thanks to the magic of the internet, I can say things like that quite honestly without fear of reproach. Kev respects how unstarry eyed I am around him. Anyway, DJs Gin & Juice will be clearing dance-floors across Melbourne with his song “PopoZao” shortly.
SPEAKING IN TONGUES!
I don’t have a television so I’d not managed to catch any of the show. But then I discovered (thanks to last week’s appearance on the show of blogger Dreadnought) that you can DOWNLOAD THE SHOW AS A VIDEO PODCAST. I might be a little slow when it comes to technology but this is the most AMAZING thing I have ever heard of in the history of anything. I watched six episodes last night and my mind was officially blown. It’s funny, clever and I think I want Father Bob to be my best friend.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, DEAR LADY!
Big ups to the Fluffmeister who turns a year older today and yet remains as radiant and ravishing as ever. Go and wish her a happy birthday, kids.
There must be something about this time of year as bloggers Kranki and Sherriff also aged (dis)gracefully over the last week, god love ‘em.
Now, are we all saving our pennies in anticipation of buying Cameron Daddo the superb birthday present he so deserves when he adds another notch to the belt of life in March? Good.

Speaking In Tongues podcast? ROCK ON. I missed a couple of episodes.
Wait until you see the interviews with Andrew Fraser and Andrew Bolt. I swear, with the Fraser one, John looked like he wanted to strangle the fucker!
Also: John Safran makes me feel less-bad about all the stupid things Jews do.

I went to see Dusty. The good bits were really good and the bad bits were excruciating. But there were sparkles. And Tasmin Carroll is the new Aussie musical superstar and I hope she kills McCune and Prior and TAKES OVER THE WORLD AFTER EATING THEIR STILL BEATING HEARTS TO THE TUNE OF 'JUNE IS BUSTIN' OUT ALL OVER'. Ahem.

Jess, when will you be heading out to see Dusty... myself and a close friend are absolutely mad about her and have been dying to get our tix for this...
