What's your favorite Britney deep cut/b-side/remix, ONTD?

https://instagram.com/p/B9C_PDTg2Eq

Last week, Britney's boyfriend, Sam Asghari, revealed that Britney broke her metatarsal bone on her left foot that required a trip to the hospital. Tonight, Britney posted a video of the CHAOTIC dance routine that broke her foot.

Britney captioned the video, "I haven't danced in six months so I was full throttle at this spot. And yes .... I know I'm barefoot .... don't laugh but I grip the floor better that way!!!! PS you can hear where I broke my foot here. Sorry it's kind of loud!!!!"

Legendary Children’s initial proposal and early drafts were full of references and information that we either already knew well or were familiar enough with that we were easily able to flesh out our knowledge with a bit of research. For instance, in the chapter on Drag Race’s sketch comedy and improv challenges (entitled “Watch Out for Those Sketchy Queens, Gurl”), it was easy enough for us to start off by mentioning the groundbreaking work of Divine in the classic trash cinema films of John Waters like Mondo Trasho, Pink Flamingos, and Female Trouble. That culture-breaking work is ALL OVER Drag Race (which the show has openly admitted, not least when they centered an entire Ru-sical around Divine, with extra-special guest judge Waters himself) and it was very easy for us to examine the ways in which those films and that style of drag permeates the show and its most successful performances. We’ll be doing a deeper dive on Waters and Divine in an upcoming Legendary post, but don’t worry: we gave them their due in the book. After all, Divine’s right there on the front row of the cover, isn’t she?

Sharing that front row with her, on the left side, is a lesser-known drag queen named Doris Fish, done up in the ’80s camp drag of her own groundbreaking, generation-defining work, Vegas in Space. In fact, that’s the main reason why we weren’t as familiar with Doris, who we wound up falling in love with during the writing of the book. We’re of the RuPaul generation. You see, Divine was a crucial figure in defining drag in the mainstream for the Baby Boomers. Ru almost singlehandedly held up the drag banner for Generation X. But for the early years of the Millennial generation, one of the most memorable and notable representations of the art of drag was Doris Fish, her drag sisters from Sluts-a-Go-Go, and a menagerie of 1980s San Francisco queens who made up the eye-popping cast of Vegas in Space. Why? Because for the entire decade of the ’90s, Vegas in Space played in heavy and near-constant rotation on The USA Network’s “Up All Night,” making it the sort of cultural wallpaper of a generation, back when “flipping through the channels” was a thing people did that exposed them to images they never would have found on their own.

 

And if you are a Millennial or Gen-Xer or older who managed to miss it in those flipping-through-the-channels days before your phones had computers installed in them, we have the great pleasure of introducing it to you and telling you to run to Amazon Prime and watch it RIGHT NOW. You will NOT be treated to amazing performances or fantastic special effects or even a story or plot that makes much sense. You WILL sit through some of the most eye-popping drag of the late 20th Century which, much like Divine’s and Ru’s, had long-term effects on the art of drag and pushed it into bolder directions. Sasha Velour is an enormous fan and champion of the film and once you sit through it, you can definitely see how it influenced her own drag. We had a passing familiarity with Fish and with Vegas in Space, but it wasn’t until we started diving deep and digging into the roots of drag cinema and drag theater (which also led us down a Hibiscus road, among many others), that we truly came to appreciate him and his most famous creation.

 

The film took over seven years to complete, in a stop-and-start shoestring production that Fish, “real” name: Philip Mills, a Sydney transplant in the San Francisco drag scene, partially funded through non-drag sex work, joking “No one ever told me you couldn’t make a feature film on a prostitute’s salary.” Regardless of what you may think of sex work (although if you have any interest in the history of drag or queer culture, we suggest you get over it, since a great number of our artists and social warriors either funded their work or just survived through sex work, at a time when all queer people were seen by the mainstream as exotic fetishists at best), that’s a stunning example of one queen’s commitment to art; one artist’s unshakable belief that what he was doing was worth pursuing for years, putting his own body down as collateral. The history of queer art and politics is full of men and women who did the same. When the film finally saw its premiere in 1991, Mills was not there to celebrate it. He died of AIDS complications four months before.

 

It’s not high cinema and that’s entirely the point. The sketch challenges on Drag Race and the history of drag acting in general has deep roots in both underground theater and trash cinema. Like the work of John Waters and Divine, Vegas in Space is much more interested in being campy, bitchy and occasionally shocking than it is in being technically perfect (or even good), let alone artistically fulfilling. If you’ve noticed by now that we haven’t given you much information on the plot or particulars here, it’s because a) they’re kind of hard to recap, and b) you really need to experience the whole thing yourself. We won’t claim your mind will be blown, but you sure as hell will see more than your share of eye candy.

 

And yet, art it became, whether intended or not. After a decade on cable television, Vegas in Space has found itself in museum retrospectives and film festivals, championed as an example of high drag, high camp, and the ferocity of queer art birthed under impossible circumstances and in the face of social disapproval. It may not (yet) have the same legendary status as Pink Flamingos or the same culture-defining status as Paris is Burning, but Vegas in Space is as pure an example as you’ll ever find of the kind of queer art that gets born when drag queens insist on making it their own goddamn way, everyone else be damned. Grab a bottle of wine and settle in to watch it soon with some bitchy friends.

And of course, for much more on Doris, Divine, Hibiscus, the history of drag acting and the entire last century of queer life, by all means, feel free to pre-order our lovely little book on these and many other subjects, kittens. We would be ever so grateful and we promise you’ll get some killer stories in return.

Director Matt Reeves took to Twitter on Thursday afternoon to share a first glimpse at Robert Pattinson in “The Batman.” Though less than a minute long, this moody camera test offers a good glimpse of Pattinson in the batsuit — at least from the waist up.

Production on “The Batman” is currently underway, with Warner Bros. releasing the DC Comics-based tentpole on June 25, 2021.


“Out of all the big roles that I knew of in that kind of realm, there was just something about this one,” Pattinson told BBC of Bruce Wayne in “The Batman.”

Super High-Res Images of Matt Reeves’ #TheBatman bat-suit reveal.

We love the “work-in-progress” idea for the suit & how Greig Frasier captures it. It’ll be cool to see him update the tech throughout the story. LOVE the bat-symbol design - very similar to the Arkham games... pic.twitter.com/TH7Zvx5jnH

This is a post where home decor meets my personal life. I’ve known the homeowners of this fabulous place for, wow, I think 20 years now…girl, can you believe it’s been that long? Carrie was my boss at a startup dot com back in 2000. Her style has evolved over time, and I can officially say, this home is hands down my favorite. It’s bold, fearless, and confident…just like her and her husband. She worked with interior designer extraordinaire, Jen Talbot, to bring this past meets present bonkers decor to life. Situated in Chicago’s Bucktown neighborhood, this home was recently featured in LivingEtc’s March issue (on newsstands now), and it’s an absolute honor to feature this modern home tour here on House Of Hipsters. Let’s dig into my interview with Jen (oh and be sure to follow @jentalbotdesign on Instagram).

Dustin Halleck Photography

 

What was the inspiration for this modern Bucktown home? Highly curated, vintage 80’s with a sculptural overtone and purposeful use of color. The client’s tag line was “modern sophisticated meets Kelly Wearstler in the 80’s”.

Dustin Halleck Photography

She had just wrapped a 3-year design project at the new luxury boutique hotel, the St. Jane Hotel (formally the Hard Rock Hotel), and wanted her personal space to reflect the fresh innovative approach she applied to the hotel and her wardrobe. Unique pieces that were singular to her space.

Is the finished design close to the mood board you first presented to the client? Mood boards always evolve. This one more than usual because we used so much vintage. Often times we would find an amazing piece, and it would get snatched up before we pulled the trigger to purchase. The overall essence of the board did not change, just the actual pieces. The beauty of that? The design became more curated because we were forced to source even better pieces, one treasure at a time.

Dustin Halleck Photography

The homeowners let you take some serious risks. Was there anything they said no to? There was one weird metal floor lamp I found that pretty much belonged in outer space and looked like an evil octopus. It was a piece that I was on the fence about. But oftentimes if you are not sure you love or hate a piece, that’s the sweet spot. It’s a very fresh visual to push out of your comfort zone.

Dustin Halleck Photography

When you initially started the design, what room did you dig into first? We started with the main floor — the living room, dining room, and kitchen area are all open to each other and have to play together. Once the living room was designed, we built out from there. The client knew she wanted a particular sofa, so that became our anchor and jumping-off point.

Dustin Halleck Photography

Dustin Halleck Photography

The wallcoverings add so much texture to each room. I especially love the subtle texture in the front living room and the beige on beige with black graphics printed in the bedroom. Can you tell me more about these? The client talked about getting sick of patterns easily so we decided to explore textures. The textured wallpaper in the living room was custom developed for the space. By working with a wallpaper company that was already doing textured, we had them change the direction and layout, color match, and cut it into 18 x 18 squares. We then “tiled” the wall, giving it a complete customized look.

It’s stunning, and I love how the art plays off the wall covering. You guys nailed it.

Dustin Halleck Photography

Dustin Halleck Photography

In the master bedroom, we worked to find two papers that could play off each other and be paired to create visual interest. Selected were two subtle wallpapers from Osborne and Little — same color family with a similar size print. They naturally related to each other.

Dustin Halleck Photography  

Dustin Halleck Photography

Jen, that’s genius! The effect adds spectacular texture to the bedroom. Also, the bold pop of turquoise and that gold ceiling is spectacular. 

What was your biggest challenge while designing this space? The modern framework of the existing space was definitely a challenge. I am more accustomed to working with vintage homes and pairing each room with modern elements. In this home, we had to make the visually dominant wood staircase work into the overall design. Originally, the wall was exposed brick, but we painted it white to give the space a more modern flavor. We also reworked the fireplace stone surround to create cohesion with the kitchen stone.

Dustin Halleck Photography

Dustin Halleck Photography

There are so many amazing vintage treasures in this home. What is your hands-down favorite piece? That is a hard question because there are so many I love! Probably the Ultrafragola illuminated floor mirror designed by Ettore Sottsass for Poltranova. They are pretty rare and hard to come by.

Dustin Halleck Photography

I’ll admit, that’s my absolute favorite as well. Undulating pink…it’s without a doubt my dream mirror.

I attended a party at the home while you were still finishing the design. I must confess…before I left, I went into the pink Gucci powder room and totally snapped some pictures because it’s just too good…oh and not to share it on Instagram…that was challenging. What was your inspiration for this daring bathroom and can you elaborate on that amazing sink? In this space, the client wanted to completely “go for it” and create a room that her guests would talk about for weeks after leaving her party. The space started with the stone selection. We were shopping for the kitchen stone and fell in love with the green marble. I had to find a way to work it in. The powder room was the obvious place, and we designed the room around it. I love using just a hint of unexpected color in a space; it can make it feel so special. Other times I love to see the conversation I can start between colors and color stories. It’s a wonderful challenge to push yourself creatively.

Dustin Halleck Photography

Dustin Halleck Photography

In Drawing 101, back in my art school days, we were not allowed to use any color until we mastered the use of just graphite pencils on paper. That way we could learn shading a shape, rather than being overwhelmed with what colors to use. Color came much later because it was a new challenge and a different way to look at things.

Hmmmmm, maybe that’s why I design in neutrals so often. Color and pattern are both challenging. You certainly nailed this design. 

Dustin Halleck Photography

The sofa in the kids’ playroom has such an unusual shape. Can you tell me more about it? This was a great vintage find but in terrible condition when we found it. The lines were great with huge potential, but it had to be completely rebuilt. The sofa is three pieces that fit together to create a “U” shaped sectional, and each section almost “hugs” your body when you sit in it. It’s pretty fantastic. For the design, I loved the idea of a two-tone piece, that was one color on front and another complimentary color on the back, with contrasting piping detail. The end result was better than I imagined.

Dustin Halleck Photography

Talk about leveling up. The piping really does add that extra special something. If you don’t mind, I’ll be keeping this idea in my brain for my next upholstery project.

Dustin Halleck Photography

Do you have a favorite room? I think the living room is my favorite. The textures and mix of subtle with bold color and the pop of wild pattern on the coffee table is perfection…but maybe the powder room is tied for first.

Billie Eilish's interview with Jimmy Kimmel last week is going viral after the singer said she didn't know who Van Halen was. Prompting users to call her out for not knowing the classic rock band.

The uproar reached the band itself, Wolf, the bassist for Van Halen, caught wind of the backlash, saying "If you haven't heard of Billie Eilish, go check her out. She's cool. If you haven't heard of Van Halen, go check them out. They're cool, too."

Mandy Moore joined the Pete Buttigieg campaign this weekend to help spread the campaign's message of "inclusivity" with Pete's quirky husband, Chasten. New Orleans, a city that is 60% black, really drove home that message of Pete's "inclusivity" at a stop Mandy & Chasten made at Tulane (30% black/nbpoc) with this diverse crowd.

Great to be in New Orleans today. First stop: chatting with students at @Tulane! @TheMandyMoore and I were inspired by your stories, your support of @PeteButtigieg, and your commitment to building a more inclusive future for all. pic.twitter.com/5LbB60C7Ps

— Chasten Buttigieg (@Chas10Buttigieg) November 17, 2019

The Buttigieg campaign went hard on the "inclusivity" message this weekend by managing to offend Jewish people with flirty instagram posts focusing on how cute Pete is a Holocaust memorial, threatening to invade Mexico, taking credit for the brilliant handling of the Charlotesville Neo-Nazi rally that killed a woman, and lying about black South Carolinians endorsing his Douglass Plan, all the while focusing on "reaching out" to bigoted religious Republicans.

The Daily Show's Trevor Noah aptly described Pete's stellar 0% polling with African Americans as shown in three different polls from today.

“Hedonism defines my style. I’m inspired by practicality and that’s why everything that I’m wearing is highly comfortable, except the white boots. The boots are hell.”

10 August 2019, Flow Festival

When the cast of the 28th season of Dancing With The Stars was announced back in August, a whole lot of people were not feeling ABC’s choice to throw Sean Spicer into the mix. Even DWTS host Tom Bergeron was basically like, “*cough* stunt casting *cough*“. But Sean found an unlikely ally in his fellow DWTS cast member Karamo Brown, who is still clearly very much on Team Spicy.

After Karamo first grabbed his pom-poms and cheered on the sidelines for Sean Spicer by calling him a “good guy,” the internet responded by educating Karamo on just how allegedly good Sean Spicer is. Which is to say, not nearly as good as Karamo thinks, considering all of the times Sean lied for Trump. Karamo eventually deactivated his Twitter account.

Karamo was the 4th contestant eliminated on Monday night’s episode of DWTS, and he said his goodbyes after the show to a crowd of reporters. Because of some kind of haunted monkey’s paw wish, Sean Spicer is still on the show, despite having the lowest scores three weeks in a row. So Sean said goodbye to Karamo, and that’s when we got this moment:

Karamo Brown and @seanspicer hug it out after Karamo's #DWTS elimination: "This is America uniting." https://t.co/3tMjuCvTp5 pic.twitter.com/Cz2o74oOEo

— ExtraTV (@extratv) October 29, 2019

Karamo said:

“This is America uniting right now. Okay? I’m just letting you know, this is America uniting. No one thought this was about to be happening, alright?”

If I was Karamo’s partner, I’d probably be thinking, “Well apparently we both look like clowns tonight.”

People says that Karamo got even more mileage out of his friendship with Sean Spicer, by explaining to reporters that it was his goal going into the show to be an example of kindness to everyone, no matter their political affiliation.

“My goal coming into this was to introduce myself to people who have never seen Queer Eye, to let them know who I am. And also, my goal has always been to show how if you can show kindness and lead with love, things can change. Day one I got backlash [for supporting Spicer]. I started this show with people telling me, ‘You’re horrible, you’re crazy, you’re stupid.’ Because I showed someone who has a different political view than mine kindness.”

It kind of sounds like Karamo admitted that he dove head-first into this friendship in an attempt to get some new Queer Eye viewers in the right-wing red states. But that doesn’t mean it’s not a totally real and true friendship. Sean spoke about his “good friend” Karamo getting eliminated, and got teary while doing so.

There's no doubt that we've seen a different side of @seanspicer throughout his journey on #DWTS and things definitely get emotional as he talks about his pal Karamo's elimination. #TeamSweetNSpicey #SeanSpicer pic.twitter.com/3GM1xUdeMS

— On The Red Carpet (@OnTheRedCarpet) October 29, 2019

Karamo claimed after his elimination on Monday that he worked really hard to open Sean’s eyes to all the shitty things Sean did in the White House, and Sean is totally a changed man. Maybe if Karamo spent more time in dance rehearsals and less time working some asshole rehab program, he might still be around? I don’t know, just putting that out there.

“Through this process, Sean’s trailer has been next to mine and I have literally every day been planting seeds in his heart. ‘When you made this comment, it hurt me as a man. When you made this comment, it hurt me as a person of color. When you made this comment, it hurt me as a gay man.’ And literally, I could see each week those seeds…blossoming and that’s why he got emotional [when I was sent home].

He got emotional because he’s realizing that I’m not someone you should be attacking in the media. I’m a human being. And if I can touch his heart, I’m about to go through and make a tour of Washington! I still want Trump out of office, but you know. That was the goal [with Spicer]. That was the goal.”

What Karamo said is probably not going to change the internet’s position on the matter. But that’s not to say everyone will hate it. I have a feeling Karamo is about to come home to find a gift basket with a note in Ellen DeGeneres’ handwriting that says, “Thank you for being the new face of tone-deaf gay people, I appreciate it.”

Just to give you a little bit of fashion whiplash, we’re going from Dame Helen arriving like an Empress to Billie Eilish, arriving in … this:

 

 

It’s very big, whatever it is. Also bright. But you can’t say it’s not a coordinated look, that’s for sure. You don’t accidentally or randomly step out in this getup.

But y’know? Go do that thing, girl. Go and wear that super-cray shit that causes all the grownups to scratch their heads or tut-tut. You’re seventeen. It’s practically your responsibility to do such things at your age. And if nothing else, you appear to be well-protected from the elements and even possibly a fall from a great height, which makes this ensemble practical on top of everything else.

Yes, that’s what this is. Good responsible, practical fashion. Attagirl.

ABC News has some sad news in the Fuck Cancer-front. Beloved television host of Jeopardy! and occasional straight up fucking SAVAGE, Alex Trebek, has let us know that he is sadly going to be doing more chemotherapy after just recently still being in remission for stage 4 pancreatic cancer. It seems that his numbers are “sky high,” so Alex is going to be doing more rounds of treatment.

ABC says we should say a little prayer to our varying gods and spirits for Alex Trebek’s quick recovery and we should also use one of Lana Del Rey‘s witch spells on the Demon Devil of Cancer so that bitch can finally get what’s coming to him.

In an interview with Good Morning America, Alex talked to reporter TJ Holmes about his ongoing health issues. Alex has been open about his cancer treatment in the past, and was also recovering from a brain surgery early last year. Well, there’s more medical bullshit ahead for poor Alex Trebek:

“I was doing so well. And my numbers went down to the equivalent of a normal human being who does not have pancreatic cancer. So we were all very optimistic. And they said, ‘Good, we’re gonna stop chemo, we’ll start you on immunotherapy.’… [then] I lost about 12 pounds in a week. And my numbers went sky high, much higher than they were when I was first diagnosed. So, the doctors have decided that I have to undergo chemo again and that’s what I’m doing.”

Alex also opened up about being in “excruciating pain” and “fatigued” by the medical treatments and that he’s now also grappling with depression which started when he was first diagnosed. He said he’ll randomly just feel a “surge of sadness.” He said:

“When it happened early on I was down on myself… I didn’t realize how fallible each of us is in his or her own way… I talk to the audience sometimes and I get teary eyed for no reason. I don’t even bother to explain it anymore, I just experience it. I know it’s a part of who I am and I just keep going.”

Alex says he’s come to terms with everything and it sucks, but he’s also an old guy whose done a lot and he’s more worried for the people he leaves behind:

“I realize that there is an end in sight for me, just as there is for everyone else. One line that I have used with our staff in recent weeks and months is that when I do pass on, one thing they will not say at my funeral is, ‘Oh, he was taken from us too soon.’ …Hey guys. I’m 79-years-old. I’ve had one hell of a good life. And I’ve enjoyed it… the thought of passing on doesn’t frighten me, it doesn’t. Other things do, the affect it will have on my loved ones… it makes me sad. But the thought of myself moving on, hey folks, it comes with the territory.”

But don’t think this means Alex is gonna roll over and leave Jeopardy! anytime soon, he will tell you answers that you will have to give him the question to until he physically can no longer hold a microphone:

“As long as I can walk out and greet the audience and the contestants and run the game I’m happy.”

I wish Alex the speedy recovery of a Goop-addict whose convinced themselves that their $80 He Shou Wu Sun Potion actually affects their overall health!

H&M Studio is thrilled to unveil the campaign for its A/W 19 collection, “Magical Realism”, infused with a dramatic mood of feminine spirituality. Photographed by Christian MacDonald, styled by Ludivine Poiblanc, who also consulted on the collection, and modelled by Adut Akech in the endlessly energizing streets of New York, the collection comprises an arresting combination of sharp tailoring, silken dresses and heritage knitwear. The collection will be available at hm.com and in selected stores from September 5.

We don’t get to cover Miss Liv nearly as much as we’d like, since she’s got kind of a quirky sort of awkward style that belies her model looks and bearing but nonetheless seems to work really well for her. But she’s got a Big Important Film out hitting the festivals and rushing headlong into awards season, so you can expect to see quite a bit more of her in the months ahead.

Love this. Maybe we’re giving her too much credit, since this comes off a lot like fussy officewear, but there’s an easy sort of chicness to it and besides, you don’t want to show up looking too over-styled or curated when disembarking from a boat is involved. We’d have rec’d sandals over the business-like pumps, though.

Again: it’s borderline dowdy and could come off looking a lot more mumsy (mumsier?) on a different wearer, but there’s something about the long black hair and dramatic lip that makes it seem fresher. Again, though: wrong shoe. A brightly colored sandal in a matching tone would’ve worked so much better and looked more modern.

 

 

 

 

Yes, that’s all well and good and Brad is heading into Oscar season with heavy buzz on two different roles, but much more importantly, if you’re bored or just need to watch something soothing, you can do a lot worse than spend 25 minutes watching Liv explain her skincare routine. It’s like hanging out in a really nice bathroom with your super-chill friend who has nothing but amazing stories to tell:
