The Brotherhood of The Dazzling Pants: Curl Up & Diamonds!
by Nightcharm
Norsemen

OK, so as a sport, curling may rate up there with shuffleboard, and the exhilaration of watching men sweep may be lost on us, but goddamn if the Norwegian curling team’s incredible, triptastic, kaleidoscopic hipster pants don’t suddenly make it all watchable.

Is it simply a daring fashion statement? A gloriously Scandinavian sartorialism that’s all the rage in the streets of Oslo? A sly means of distracting opponents?

Some blessings are better left unquestioned.

I Just Want to Fucking Dance, Part II
by Nightcharm

We love this T-Mobile ad, one of the Clio winners for best commercial of the year. (Be sure to press “HQ” for the high-quality version of the video.)

Writes Slate: “T-Mobile throws a surprise dance party in Liverpool Street Station, with hundreds of ordinary-looking Londoners suddenly breaking into a choreographed routine. This must have been a treat for the commuters trudging toward their trains, and it’s fun to watch the onlookers getting sucked into the fun.”

Alfred Hitchcock and the Murder of the Movie Impersonators
by John Calendo
“Mother … my mother … um, what’s the phrase? She isn’t quite herself today.”
Anthony Perkins making a colossal understatement in Psycho

I have been haunted – too haunted to write about it — for the past few weeks by a spread that appears in the current issue of Vanity Fair.

Jodi Foster as Tippi Hedren in The Birds

It is a photo tribute in which present-day movie stars have been inserted into instantly recognizable stills from Alfred Hitchcock movies — movies I grew up on and whose hypnotic power still grabs hold of me today, even after a lifetime of multiple viewings.

This photo of Jodi Foster impersonating Tippi Hedren in The Birds, for instance, conveys the blasphemous charm of these recreated stills, disquieting, in their own way, as much for the things they get “wrong” as for the things they get “right.” (The entire spread, which is not on the Vanity Fair site, can be seen here.)

Benoît Prévôt: Loves of the Arrow Collar Man
by John Calendo
A NIGHTCHARM CLASSIC
from July 2006

Prevot male erotic art

Square jawed and clear eyed, these beautiful men seem to have tumbled out of a time machine from exactly 100 years ago, the Gilded Age before World War I, looking all slick-haired and suited and ready for some modern man-on-man.

We might even think we had come upon a hidden stash of fabulous retro-porn if we didn’t know that the artist, Benoît Prévôt, is not only alive, he is a mere 38 years old!

A lifelong Parisian, whose day-job is designing cartoon characters for children’s television, sitting at a computer doing 3D backgrounds and images, Prévôt views the erotic drawings he does at night as his more important art.

In Prévôt’s swanky re-imaginings of the past, we get a glimpse of what the Arrow Collar Men were doing when the Gibson Girl was out on a motor trip.

We imagine the stately Gibson Girl coming home suddenly, unexpectedly, all leg-of-mutton sleeves and upswept hair behind motoring goggles, only to find husband and best friend slavering over each other in the drawing room. Solid patrician that she is, trained from childhood to be The Wife, she looks right on past the dog and pony show, gazing in her dreamy, heavy-lidded way out at the grounds, thinking ackh! men!

A Christmas Wish From Krishna, Vishnu and All the Gang
by John Calendo
... and what to my wondering eyes should appear ...

Fabulicious is the only word in our arsenal of demented gay superlatives to describe it.

And no, it’s not that Jodie Foster may or may not have just come out — stunned and shaken as we would be by such an announcement.

Nor is it the national confusion we’re all going through trying to keep the Petersons straight: Is it Stacy or Laci who is the current missing, presumed dead wife? Is it Drew or Scott — both stud-muffin names — who is the despicable, unlovable, unredeemable rascal in the windowless cell on death row that we’d love to fuck anyway?

Even the announcement of the Golden Globe nominations this morning — the most deeply meaningless trophies in show business – are not what’s making us crazy right now — though we are overjoyed to see that Keira Knightly is finally getting her due as the greatest actress of our time — a status once held in a long ago Hollywood by that delightful (but forgotten — why, why, why?) minx, Pia (with a Z) Zadora!

What has made us dig to the bottom of our dementia bag to come up with the rare gem fabulicious is the current collision between East and West that is gushing forth rivers of kitsch in the most nutso campaign video ( what!) ever. Put on your dazzle glasses, boys, because Christmas has come a little early this year: (read the full article)

Breaking News: Dildo Found at Hogwarts Academy
by Shawn Baker
dumbledore_gay.jpg

Conservatives might want to start preparations for a collective book burning and/or DVD steam rolling ASAP:

Harry Potter’s mentor is gay!

Damn those elitist, ivory tower European sorcery academies with their secular liberal agendas!

Damn them all to Hell!

Author J.K. Rowling left fans stunned at a recent appearance at Carnegie Hall to promote the mega-popular book series’ final entry when she nonchalantly announced that beloved master magician and Hogwarts Academy Headmaster Albus Dumbledore is as gay as an East End belfry full of bats.

John Waters: “I Had More Fun When it was Illegal to be Gay!”
by John Calendo
John Waters looking courtly and stylish, after all

John Waters is one of the icons of these post-Andy Warhol times.

Once hailed as a “Master of Sleaze”, the man with the creepy pencil mustache and the look of a drained vampire shunning the sun behind big swoopy sunglasses, John Waters has, with his films and books, subtly shaped the atmosphere of hip taste and pop intellectualism. It now drapes around him as comfortably as a well-made suit.

As the picture at left quietly attests, he is the essence of courtliness and chic, reminiscent, oddly, of Zachary Scott, the silky, duplicitous playboy who so brings our Joan to grief in Mildred Pierce. Yes, the bard of Baltimore has become stylish — after all.

Stylish and one of our sharpest gay humorists.

More culture critic, than funny man, his refreshing — at times, startling — takes on recent cultural events such as Britney’s MTV debacle or his own surprising commercial success with the musical Hairspray were on offer in an interview he gave a North Carolina newspaper, The Independent, before his talk there at Duke University.
