SANDRA BERNHARD IS MORE THAN A STAND-UP COMIC

Sandra Bernhard performed her one-woman show at Ronnie Scott’s jazz club in London as part of her world tour. She has an amusing act – her observational comedy is smart and she doesn’t hesitate to make fun of everyone. You might remember her close friendship with Madonna a few years back. When Madonna for some Continue reading “SANDRA BERNHARD IS MORE THAN A STAND-UP COMIC”

PATTIE BOYD WAS IDOLIZED BY MUSIC GROUPIES IN THE ’60s

Here’s a face we haven’t seen in awhile – it’s Pattie Boyd – she was the gorgeous “It Girl” that everybody wanted to BE in the trendy and tumultuous 1960’s.

RIGHT SAID FRED BROTHERS ARE STILL TOO SEXY FOR THEIR SHIRTS

Who didn’t love that Right Said Fred song back in the ‘90s “I’m Too Sexy?” English brothers Fred and Richard Fairbrass were both musicians who spent far too much time working out. (Gym queens?) However it inspired this popular and hilarious song that probably made them a ton of money over the years in movies Continue reading “RIGHT SAID FRED BROTHERS ARE STILL TOO SEXY FOR THEIR SHIRTS”

LONG TIME NO SEE: JACQUELINE BISSET

One of our all-time favorites, Jacqueline Bisset, walked the red carpet in Cannes to promote her new movie L’ Amant Double.

She was the object of many male fantasies, and through the years we documented her long-term romances, Continue reading “LONG TIME NO SEE: JACQUELINE BISSET”
