Although we're still on holiday, this is the end of another week - and some traditions do have to be adhered to. It may also be Our Glorious Leader Madonna's birthday today, but it's to another diva extraordinaire to whom we turn for today's spangly entertainment.
To get us in the mood for all the partying the forthcoming weekend will bring [ours will be a picnic-that-is-not-a-picnic; due to the predicted maelstrom tomorrow, our annual picnic is going to take place... in Our Sal's pub The Shaston Arms instead!], how about a little something from the later career of the famed "queen of yé-yé", Mlle Sylvie Vartan [who celebrated her 75th birthday yesterday] and her safety gays..?
Merci disco c'est vendredi!

Blimey, a trip to a French website this early in the morning!!
ReplyDeleteIf you see Gok please sign me up for a makeover, I believe I'm an impossible challenge.

Not sure what the connection is, but if I see Gok Wan I am more likely to run, rather than engage in conversation. It would all be "me-me-me" with that one. Jx
DeleteApparently The Shaston Arms is also a shrine for the rich and famous, with most notably Jude Law, Gwen Stefani, Noel Gallagher, Paul Weller, Gok Wan and Frank Lampard having visited in recent times.
ReplyDeleteYou see, I often check out your links!!

Hmmm - the nearest to a celebrity I ever saw in there was Frank Skinner. Maybe Gok stopped going when he couldn't see in the mirror because too many ex-members of BritPop bands were in the way. Jx
