Kathy Griffin loves Breadtop

Ok ... Saturday Night at the Athaneum ... it was as if God had slashed Collins Street with a lightning bolt of rainbow proportions and the cracked earth spewed forth the better part of Melbourne's LBGT community onto the tarmac. Fred Niles would have shit himself!

And who were we all sashaying around for?? The indomitable and irreverent Kathy Griffin.

 
If you are unfamiliar with Kathy Griffin, actress/commedienne, its time to get aquainted. Check her out on YouTube. If you like trashing celebrity talk, you will not be dissappointed. But leave your PC sensibilities at the door. Do not enter if easily offended.

If I could leave you with a full transcript of Saturday's show, I would. But here are some choice moments which you probably won't entirely get, but I am chuckling even as I type them out for you.

Julia Gillard is Tilda Swinton
Melbourne or rather Shanghai
Asians with Aussie accents
Anthaneum - a methlab
Oprah discovered Australia
Oprah is a c*** (oh yes Kathy went there ... she brought her C-Bomb game!!)
And she brought her camel toe
Hugh Jackman's wife - "she's a little sturdy"
Hugh Jackman - Back on Broadway - gayest show ever
Oh and Kathy loves Breadtop!!!

Vale Blanche

Ok ... Betty, you're the last one standing!!!! God Bless you Blanche!! There's no one left to carry your mantle ... all these so-called "cougar" types simply have no clue. You were the original MILF! And you were sexual mentor for less enlightened times ... and the sad fact of the matter is ... we kinda need you now more than ever! I am truly heartbroken.

PS: to the bastard lowlife scum who broke into V's car, got her address details off the rego slip in her glovebox and then went to her house and robbed her ... I sincerely hope painful boils form all over your body that suppurate slowly and burst and they run out of morphine in the gutter you've crawled out of and will eventually crawl back in ... why don't you fucking target the rich folk on the other side of the yarra !!! Not struggling people who have to support themselves on their own and can ill afford this type of shit happening.

PPS: Wendy reckons that there are no more shows about old people (her words, not mine) on TV like there used to be (i.e. Golden Girls and Murder She Wrote - again, her words!). There are only token old people nowadays, who aren't the main protagonists ... and guess what? I think she maybe right!!

PPS: On things geriatric ... I am officially old now ... a client signed off her email with bfn ... and I had no fucking clue that its stood for "bye for now"!! Mind you, bfn isn't that professional ... is it?

Dennis Hopper - RIP

Ok ... Vale yet another hollywood legend

Celebrity Spottage - Fred Schneider of the B52s

Ok ... guess who we saw at Lost and Found in Smithers .....

FRED SCHNEIDER FROM THE B52s!!!!

Damn I wish I had my camera on me!! You will just have to take my word for it. And what was Fred buying? Vintage Australiana Tea Towels!!

And here's one of my fav B52 tracks:

The Fawcett Flick canonized

Ok .. Vale Farah Fawcett ... we all wanted to be Jill Munroe (and by that I mean me) .. but I always copped Sabrina ... and you know what .... that is the story of my life!

You Young Turks with the floppy hair can suck it!!

Ok ... don't even!!!

Hungry like a Wolf

Ok ... so if anyone asks who my perfect man is ...

In touch with the ground
Im on the hunt Im after you
Smell like I sound, I'm lost in a crowd

And I'm Hungry Like the wolf

Straddle the line, in discord and rhyme
Im on the hunt Im after you
Mouth is alive with juices like wine

And I'm Hungry like the Wolf
