Text of the page (random words):
ance that the creators of skins yankee style have is astounding for anyone who has seen the original skins you are fully aware that the show graphically depicts teenagers swearing up a storm engaged in sex drug use and a host of other inappropriate activities many of which you simply can t show on american television but that s what made the show great it pushed the boundaries far beyond what something like gossip girl by far the raciest teen show on american network tv could even dream of doing by bringing the show to america there s no way it can get away with half of the shit the original did and watching a sanitized skins is worse than not watching skins at all i really wish mtv luck in trying to peddle this shitty excuse for a tv show to viewers who somehow haven t heard of this amazing show even if their show is a hit it will never be as good as the british original because it won t have the amazing ensemble of the first two seasons good luck trying to find actors as individually astounding as nicholas hoult hannah murray or kaya scodelario christ how horrible is the effy episode going to be or a cast with as amazing chemistry as april pearson joseph dempsie mitch hewer larissa wilson etc had with each other there are so many insurmountable obstacles toward the american version of skins that i simply have no idea how on earth it will work posted by dame james at 12 35 am no comments labels god save the british kaya scodelario mtv nicholas hoult skins television thursday october 21 2010 details magazine why are you so good to me posted by dame james at 11 06 pm 1 comment labels boys boys boys chris pine sunday october 17 2010 blam o lifetime has recently been airing re runs of the new adventures of old christine the now canceled sitcom starring julia louis dreyfus so i ve been watching all of these wonderful episodes over again and realizing just how much i love this show the cast is uniformly great but the real star is julia as the frazzled mom christine campbell when old christine started she was the typical overworked mom juggling work motherhood an ex husband and a romantic life it was all well and good but it was nothing we hadn t seen before as the show wore on however christine became how should i put this more pathetic by the episode she became a part time alcoholic she couldn t commit to do anything she depended on those around her for everything her love life became increasingly awkward but just when you would think she was too crazy to believable you realized that she was utterly relatable i would watch every week failing at life and realize oh my god i am so going to be her when i grow up and julia louis dreyfus was a godsend in the role because she was never afraid to amplify the crazy just like christine she has no shame and it worked so well in bringing the character to life i didn t hear until about an hour before airtime that louis dreyfus was guest starring on this past week s live episode of 30 rock needless to say i was very excited by this news i had no idea what role she would play but just the thought of christine campbell and liz lemon the two biggest losers on television together on the same show made my head spin could i possibly handle all the middle aged desperation about to be thrown my way there was only one way to find out so when the episode started and it was revealed that julia was playing liz lemon during a couple random flashbacks when it would have been impossible for tina fey to do so in the live show format my heart skipped a beat and her performance was every bit as amazing as you would think it would be i laughed my ass off on thursday and then spent the next morning watching julia over and over again after her years on the new adventures of old christine julia louis dreyfus completely understands how to play liz lemon s coarseness for laughs check it out for yourself liz lemon s first flashback liz lemon s second flashback liz lemon s second flashback west coast brilliant not only do i want julia louis dreyfus to play liz lemon in all of her flashbacks but i also want her to play me in my flashbacks that would be epic posted by dame james at 5 25 pm no comments labels 30 rock julia louis dreyfus television tina fey thursday october 14 2010 something bout archie david archuleta is a total square i don t mean this as an insult i m sure even he would gladly admit it but rather as an admission of a generally accepted fact archie is an old soul who is about as hip as my grandmother with her two artificial hips but we love him anyways because if nothing else he is completely true to himself his latest album the other side of down doesn t break any new ground musically but it is compulsively listenable i seriously have not been able to press stop since i got it last tuesday and i think the reason for this is because of archie s self awareness the songs are simple and straight forward you won t find the bells and whistles of the latest redone jam here just like he is there are no vocal gymnastics no excess in any aspect of the production it s just archie singing with that gorgeously pure voice of his i know that this album won t be for most people and that some crazy folks aren t smitten by the sweet as honey archie but sometimes all i need are some simple pop tunes about stomping roses or riding an elevator probably the first time that s ever been used in a pop song without a hint of sexual innuendo and archie fills that void sometimes it s hip to be square posted by dame james at 7 08 pm 7 comments labels david archuleta pop music monday october 11 2010 take me out to the ball game i read richard greenberg s tony award winning play take me out on a whim two summers ago and immediately fell in love with it the play which deals with the aftermath of darren lemming a star baseball player publicly coming out of the closet is one of the most refreshing coming out stories i have ever read instead of focusing solely on darren s search for who he is while struggling with his sexuality take me out dares to present both a gay character who not only has come to grips with his sexuality but who does not see his sexuality as a way of defining him and a plot that in addition to charting how darren s announcement effects the periphery characters in profound ways explores other themes such as racism and baseball as a larger metaphor needless to say take me out made an enormous impression on me so when i heard that my school s western michigan university represent theatre department was going to perform the play i knew i just had to see it yes i m not going to lie the fact that the play features full frontal nudity and guys in baseball uniforms was also a huge draw for me it was how i convinced my friend to see it with me and we both appreciated the gratuitous display of the male anatomy but as sweet of a treat that all was the real reason for me to go was the chance to see it performed live there s something about seeing a play acted out that can give a whole new meaning to the written word little things that stuck out good or bad or just did not even register can be given a whole new meaning when performed for me the biggest eye opener was the character of mason darren s gay business manager mason is darren s only connection to the gay community albeit it is a limited one since mason considers himself an outcast from the gay community what struck me most about mason in the flesh was just how funny he is for some reason i never read all the pauses stutters and backtracking greenberg wrote for mason as funny he is for sure the comic relief but i did not realize how much of a showstopper this character could be until this performance i must give credit to the actor who portrayed him max rasmussen because he obviously put in a lot of work to make mason come alive without sounding forced and i really appreciate the delicate balance he took with making the character more effeminate but never once going so far as to turn him into a horrible stereotype we laughed at his overexpressiveness and the unique way he expresses his newfound love of baseball but the laughs were never in a cheap look at the funny flamer way a hard act to balance but the actor did fine work doing it through darren s coming out mason and many other members of the gay community starts watching baseball as a sort of tribute or a thank you to their new hero for his bravery in coming out baseball comes to mean something else to mason by the end of the play but in general darren thinks this is bullshit and greenberg makes a fascinating point which really struck me the more i thought about it why do we as the gay community try so hard to find a political message for a new celebrity s coming out when in all reality their actions may have absolutely nothing to do with advancing the gay cause at one point darren is considering leaving baseball when the return of a racist homophobic teammate reveals that his team isn t as supportive as he thought mason implores him not to citing his importance to the gays fuck the gay community is darren s reply he did not come out to benefit the gay community nor does he want to be seen as some sort of martyr he came out for himself and no one else i think this is a particularly powerful statement and an especially timely one as a new celebrity seems to come out every month or so immediately i thought of joe mcelderry and his recent coming out as i have admitted before i never thought much of him until his announcement as foolish and anti progressive that is but it is obvious that joe did not come out for any other reason than for himself if by coming out he helps someone in the process that s great but he does not want to be a figurehead for the gay community like darren joe s announcement gave him something he would not have otherwise freedom and this freedom has done wonders for joe look at how happy he is in his music video or when performing live now that he can be himself without any repercussions the joy is infectious as evidenced by the fact that i tweet we love you joe at least every other day for darren however this freedom comes with a price one of the biggest surprises about take me out is that darren does not expect any backlash from his coming out he has spent his whole life being untouchable a monolith of talent who knew no boundaries to his gifts over the course of the play though darren is revealed to be more human than either he or anyone else every thought they would this surprises and scares him because he has never lost control of his life like this ever before a situation like this should never occur in real life but it does and take me out does a fabulous job exploring it posted

most male models are but he has one distinguishing asset those lips unlike another certain female movie star who is world famous for her plump lips sauve s don t look misshapen and like they were injected with expired cottage cheese his lips are big and beautiful and oh so kissable whoever said bigger isn t always better was obviously a moron because sebastian sauve s deliciously enormous lips are way better than any mere mortal s i just really hope sauve keeps on exploiting this gift of his he could totally build a great career on it posted by dame james at 10 40 am no comments labels boys boys boys models sebastian sauve monday october 4 2010 two videos that make me lol the first video is a skit from this past week s saturday night live parodying miley cyrus seems like an easy target but new cast member vanessa bayer s impression was absolutely spot on and hilarious the voice may not be exact but she gets the feeling for the miley cadence while nailing the mannerisms i m particularly impressed by how she captured the way miley s mouth is open as far as possible when she speaks and the bit when miley shows a clip from her new film pretty much sums up miley as a dramatic actress the best thing about this sketch however is how it skewers everything that is infuriating to fans like me about miley and her persona there s a bit where on this fake talk show miley is interviewing johnny depp and they talk about his work depp talks about how he likes to explore darker characters to which miley replies nonchalantly yeah me too for someone who is about as edgy as a susan boyle concert miley sure likes to think that she is so much darker than her persona actually is remember that horrible bit in her memoir where she thinks she does method acting on hannah montana i m mean gurrrrrl please oops i m getting ahead of myself stop acting like you re this really intuitive and mysterious actress when your darkest role has been in a nicholas sparks movie then in the opening monologue miley delivers this joke that she thinks is the funniest shit on the planet but is really nothing more than a mildly interesting statistic about french people i don t watch hannah montana on a regular basis but i ve caught a few episodes and this represents how i feel about miley as a comedienne the bitch ain t funny plain and simple she says lines with odd annunciation and emphasis in the wrong spots and tries to pratfall like she s buster keaton who i m sure she thinks she channels everyday in her work but it mostly looks like she s trying too hard i love miley now as a pop star but this sketch was brilliant for calling her out on her shit this is a clip from fantasia s vh1 reality show first brought to my attention by sexy man joel mchale of the soup fantasia was recently accused of having an affair with a married man so she defends herself to her aunt by denying that their relationship went any further than being friends unfortunately fantasia s aunt doesn t believe her for a second and let s her know with a hilarious gurrrrrrl please the way she says it makes me laugh every time i swear to god i have a feeling this will become the new and by record i mean vagina posted by dame james at 10 44 pm no comments labels oh she s just being miley snl strong black women the soup rants on the social network truth plays an important role in david
