Finer Feed: Julianne Moore refudiates as Sarah Palin, ‘Christmas Story’ porn stars, a ‘Community’ flash mob
Here are some of the top news items that have been plucked from my Facebook and Twitter feed: Julianne Moore‘s Sarah Palin looks good in HBO’s Game Change. Really good. Really, really good. She is probably better than the original. [HuffPo] It’s that time of year again. Whether we like it or not, The Christmas...
Lady Gaga’s ‘Edge of Glory’ Interpreted by a Justin Bieber Doppelganger
Oh Lord. There’s something hauntingly beautiful, creepy, and child pageant-like about this video of Britain’s Got Talent star, Ronan Parke singing an acoustic version of Gaga’s latest SHABLAM!-worthy club anthem. This performance looks like it took place on lo-fi public access talk show — like something I would host: The more I watch it, the...
Geist Infection: The Saxophone
I have been a huge supporter of the return of the saxophone into pop music. We are in desperate need of a saxophone renaissance. A “sax-aissance” if you will — and I think my prayers are being answered. First off, to add to the Gaga oversaturation in the zeitgeist, I have to commend her for...
Lady Gaga Stole a Piece of the Aggro Crag from ‘Guts’
Last week, Scotty McCreery won this season’s Simon-less, Paula-less, Ellen-less, Kara-less tepid American Idol. Too bad no one really cared. They were too focused on the fact that Lady Gaga dry humped and writhed around on stage whilst wearing S&M Queen Amidala-esque garb with former (and more buffed) So You Think You Can Dance contestant...
Geist Infection: For the Birds
Screw Bieber fever. There seems to be some sort of bird epidemic going around — and I’m not talking about the bird flu. First off, if you Google “Angry Birds” you are bound to find new news about the addictive smart phone game (it was even mentioned on Glee last night when Tina was playing...
Blog traffic bait: Lady Gaga’s ‘Alejandro’ Music Video Premiere
The song has been regurgitated on the radio over and over again and NOW we have the pleasure of the 8 minute Ace of Base-meets-”La Isla Bonita” song in video form. Come with me as we enjoy a journey of androgyny, Nazi femme bots, latex-clad nuns, naked men torsos, Aeon Flux aesthetics and chili-bowl haircuts....
Jordan Catalano Sings ‘Bad Romance’
The title of the post says it all. And by Jordan Catalano I mean Jared Leto and his band, 30 Seconds to Mars. I found this in my Facebook stream (thanks Stephanie) and it was definitely worth a share. Next up? Angela Chase sings “The Climb” by Miley Cyrus. I like the way he leans....
Lady Gaga and Beyonce’s ‘Telephone’ Video: An Epileptic Festival of Pop
I am not the biggest fan of Lady Gaga, but I do see why people would like her – but I do like me some Beyonce. With her latest video directed by Jonas Åkerlund (whose resume includes a slew of Madonna video) there’s a lot goin’ on – and blatant product endorsement. When watching you...
A Geography Lesson with Beyonce
Beyonce’s “Video Phone” video (featuring Lady GAGa) has withstood the pop cultural relevancy timeline and it is still as entertaining as the first time I blogged about it back in November 2009. What many don’t know is that this video can be used in geography classes all over the world. Beyonce is a virtual teacher...
Thursday’s high-energy dance break
It’s Thursday. It’s almost 2 p.m. you know what that means – it’s time for a high-energy dance break. This high-energy dance break was brought to you by Beyonce, Lady Gaga, DJ Dan, and of course, Zaid.
A Finer Year: Beyonce videos
As much as they get played out, you can’t help but love B’s videos. They’re sexy. They’re entertaining. Best of all, they border that line of trashy and sexy with ease. In 2008, I think Kanye was right about “Single Ladies” was one of the best videos of the year (sorry Taylor Swift). But for...
