Pitt the Elder

"I'm one of those people you hate because of genetics. It's the truth."

"When you see a person, do you just concentrate on their looks? It's just a first impression. Then there's someone who doesn't catch your eye immediately, but you talk to them and they become the most beautiful thing in the world. The greatest actors aren't what you would call beautiful sex symbols."

"Fame makes you feel permanently like a girl walking past construction workers."

"Heartthrobs are a dime a dozen."

Mr Brad Pitt is 60 years old today! Gulp.

Needless to say, of course, I would...

Everybody's talking when they see me walking

You know you're getting old when...

...you find out that trash-tastic "friend-of-the-gays" Sinitta is sixty years old! Gulp.

Very much in her mother Miquel Brown's genre [and even that of her auntie Amii Stewart] of high-camp, Hi-NRG stompers, she launched onto the scene in the mid-80s with a string of club hits including Feels Like the First Time, So Macho and Cruising, before getting drawn (inevitably) into the "Hit Factory" of Stock Aitken Waterman. Of course, they gave her her most memorable hit...

I can smell the poppers as I play this one!

Sinitta - Toy Boy

Toy boy, toy boy!

Everybody's talking when they see me walking
With this little boy of mine

He's my plaything and I love him
I dress him up looking fine
He ain't got money
People think it's funny
He gives me everything I need

He's my playboy and my love toy
And I want everyone to know
He's my toy boy toy boy
I'm out with my toy boy toy boy

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday night

When I want a lover
Don't need any other
I know he'll come running to me

He's my gigolo and my Romeo
And I want everyone to know
He's my toy boy toy boy
I'm out with my toy boy toy boy

Speaking of toy boys, I still can't believe the bitch shagged Brad Pitt...



Many happy returns, Miss Sinitta Renay Malone (born 19th October 1963)!

Totty of the Day

Many happy returns, Mr William Bradley Pitt (born 18th December 1963)!

Somebody hose me down...

Arise...

...Dame Angelina Maleficent Jolie-Pitt!

[Does this mean we have to call Brad "My Lord", instead of just "Yes, please, Sir"..?]

Here to give the Dame a cheer is the (sadly neglected for an honour) Julian Cope and Teardrop Explodes, with an appropriate number from thirty-three years ago - the fantabulosa Reward:

Teardrop Explodes - Reward

Bless my cotton socks I'm in the news
The king sits on his face but it's all assumed
All wrapped up the same
All wrapped up the same
They can't have it
You can't have it
I can't have it, too
Until I learn to accept my reward

Prisoners stand in queues and stand accused
Live in solitude like Howard Hughes
All wrapped up the same
All wrapped up the same
Silence has it
Arrogance has it
I can't have it, ooh
Until I learn to accept my reward

Suddenly it struck me very clear
Suddenly it struck me very clean
All wrapped up the same
All wrapped up the same
They can't have it
You can't have it
I can't have it, too
Until I learn to accept my reward

Until I learn to accept my reward
Until I learn to accept my reward
Until I learn to accept my
I learn to expect my
I learn to accept my reward

Speaking of Mad About The Boy... It's another "Fabulous at 50" birthday today that we simply have to celebrate, dear reader.

Mr Brad Pitt!

Needless to say, of course, I would...

William Bradley "Brad" Pitt (born 18th December 1963)

Brad puts it on the table for the gays

The very lovely Brad Pitt has donated $100,000 to fight a ballot initiative that would make same-sex marriage illegal.

The ballot question known as Proposition 8 essentially will ask California's voters to prohibit the practice of same-sex marriage, which was approved this year by the California Supreme Court.

In a statement, Brad explained his stance by saying, "Because no one has the right to deny another their life, even though they disagree with it, because everyone has the right to live the life they so desire if it doesn't harm another and because discrimination has no place in America, my vote will be for equality and against Proposition 8."

Will you marry me, Brad Pitt..?
