On Broadway!

OMG How the hell did I miss Regis and Kelly: On Broadway?! For an entire week they stepped into roles in the show. Watch below as Kelly Rippa takes the SERIOUS route and instead of hamming it up for the studio audience Rosie O'Donnell style as a Shark Girl in West Side Story.

Music and The Knee Slide!

Thanks Dani Spieler for this RICH treat. And thanks belly shirt/jazz pant combo looking very 1998. Watch to the end for moments of greatness including Portia De Rossi and an amazing bamboozly turning ending which drops into some sort of "whore knee drop" that looks like it hurts on many levels.

Chicago is campy

Or that's what Matt says. Check out some of the pictures he sent me while out teaching a master class (which is rich in itself.)
On the street

Dancing Hookers!

If you're going to make a musical about campy coked out pimps and hos circa 1990 (???) then this is the way to do it. It's the campiest belt fest EVER. I could say this was my first glimpse at camp- back in 1997, this was the first year Rosie O'Donnell hosted the Tonys and they were AMAZING. This number was played over and over on my VCR, though I'd lost much of the rest of the tape when I recorded over it accidentally for a Mary Catherine Gallagher/Aerosmith SNL sketch. 

EVERYTHING about this number is perfect. Talk about bitches...

Tila!

Did anyone know that Tila Tequila had a song?! I didn't it, nor was I prepared for this video. Style, lyrics, EVERYTHING is unexpected in a jaw-hitting-the-floor kind of way. It's truly shocking.

Notes on Camp

by Susan Sontag. 
Seriously. A must read.

Ring It!

UMich kids are campy. Here's a RICH example. This is a number from the dance workshop choreographed and performed by a campy group of freshman girls. It's chock full of lady-like hip gyrations and non-stop beveling. I actually love it! A+ ladies!

Every day is a HOLIDAY

Thanks Nina for sending this. The combination of Rosie and Jennifer Holiday AND those striped cell block tango gobos scattered on the floor got me wet. The straight up belting is great, but just wait for the ending. Like, is she serious!? What a BITCH!

Twatter...

So I've been lazy in posting as I've been living in a HUGE loft downtown for the past few days, but I've got some good stuff coming your way over the next few days, including this little video that I'm sure you've at least heard about...
Anything Meredith Viera does is hilarious, as far as I'm concerned. What a rich BITCH!
