Daddy Supports His Gay Daughter

daviddust@gmail.com (David Dust) — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 20:32:00 +0000

By now you have probably heard the story of 18-year-old high school senior Constance McMillen (below). Constance, who is gay, wants to attend her high school prom with her girlfriend and wear a tuxedo. Instead of allowing that to happen, the Itawamba County (Mississippi) School District cancelled the prom altogether.

But I'm here to point out an extremely important and under-analyzed facet of this case ... OMG - just how HOT is Constance's father?!? Michael McMillen (top), has publicly expressed support for his gay daughter and her efforts to attend prom like any other kid. Don't MESS with Daddy's Little Girl.

In the dictionary, under "Daddy", there should be a picture of Michael McMillen. For all the right reasons.

Celebrity Sighting - David Duchovny

daviddust@gmail.com (David Dust) — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 02:05:00 +0000

While walking home tonight I passed David Duchovny and his adorable young daughter leaving a restaurant. I thought maybe David might look a little "haggard" in person (he'll be 50 this summer), but I couldn't have been more wrong. I'm here to tell you that David Duchovny is QUITE the hottie!

Project Runway Ep. 8 Recap - Don't Make Me Get All Elemental Up In Here!"

daviddust@gmail.com (David Dust) — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 19:17:00 +0000

Last week on Project Runway was the “unconventional materials” challenge - the designers bought their "fabric" at the hardware store instead of Mood. Jay was the winner, and Jesse was sent back to Disney World - where he will be featured as “Chimney Sweep #4” at the Mary Poppins Dinner Theater inside the park. Showtime’s at 3:00, 5:00, 7:30, and 10:00 pm…

On this week’s episode, it’s morning in Manhattan and Jay compares his roommates to a Wonder Bra – they have lifted (and separated?) each other during the competition. Or maybe he said his roommates make his boobs look bigger - my notes are unclear. And Anthony reminds his roommates to follow Tim’s advice and “trust your viscera” – even though Anthony isn’t sure he has a viscera or where it may be located. I thought only girls had visceras?!?. Again, my notes are unclear.

The designers head over to the runway where they meet Heidi. Mrs. Seal reminds them that Jay has immunity this week, but this is the last immunity for the season. She instructs the fashiontestants to meet Tim on the roof of the Atlas apartments – because Atlas will raise the rent if they don’t get mentioned more often.

The designers ascend to the roof, where they find Tim Gunn and the HeadBiatchInCharge of Shiny Follicles - Phillip de Garnier (not his real name, but it sounds fierce).

Tim explains that the designers will be using the four elements – Earth, Air, Fire and Water as their inspiration this week. Personally, I think using “Earth, Wind & Fire” would be a much more interesting inspiration…

The designers pick their elements, and here are the results - along with what I would create if given that particular element…

Air – Jay, Jonathan and Seth Aaron (who isn’t happy about getting “air” – he would have preferred “smog” or “sludge”). Here is what I would do if given “air” as my inspiration …

Water – Maya and Ben. My suggestion…

Earth – Mila and Emilio. Here is a great idea …

Fire – Anthony (He's flaming! It’s a gay joke! Get it?!?) and Amy. At least one of them should do this…

But, as you will see, none of the designers take my advice. Ungrateful bastards.

They head back to the workroom for sketching. Ben, who has “water” as his inspiration, starts thinking about sharks and decides to do a suit. Uh oh. Here is what I’m picturing…

Unless his model is supposed to meet her Bootlegger at the Speakeasy, I don’t think this is such a great idea.

Anthony states that when he thinks of “fire”, he doesn’t necessarily think “red”. He thinks about his church pastor who may or may not have intentionally burned down his house (WTF???). This makes him think “dark and smokey”. Okaaaaaayyyyy?? ….

Jonathan – who has ~~gas~~ “air” – decides to create his own textile again. His interpretation of air is “laughter”, and he wants his garment to make his model look like she is “enveloped in a swirl of uncontrollable laughter”. Just as long as he doesn’t prompt the judges into uncontrollable laughter.

The designers go to Mood and spend their $150 (Thank you Mood!), and they head back to the workroom. Tim announces that they will have until midnight to finish their looks.

The workroom is exceedingly quiet with the designers plugging away at their “elemental” designs. Seth Aaron, who originally was upset for getting “air”, is now happy because he figured out a way to use his signature black. His air will be the “midnight air of New York” – complete with hundreds of people standing in front of bars and nightclubs smoking, and the exhaust fumes of a thousand taxis.

Tim visits with Phillip de Garnier – who does a Garnier ~~commercial~~ consultation with each designer. At the same time, Tim checks on everyone’s progress.

Tim loves what Jonathan is doing with his “laughter” inspiration, and he also likes Seth Aaron’s “night wind”. Amy, on the other hand, is saying words like “bowl” and “hair” and “contained chaos” for her fire garment, which is sounding worrisome.

Models come in for fittings, which provide an opportunity for the designers to check out each other’s garments. Mila mentions that Ben’s trousers look horrible (“That crotch is INSANE”), and Jonathan mentions that many of the designers have “taken creative liberties” with their inspiration/theme. This is coming from a guy who is enveloping his model in laughter and calling it air. Glass houses, dontcha know.

The clock strikes midnight, and the designers head back to the Atlas apartments. Once there, Ben calls his husband and cries – which can only mean that Ben will be going home. The Bunim/Murray production team is NOT subtle (some would say “lazy”) … a phone call home = elimination. Buh-bye Ben.

The next day we have the usual scramble around the workroom trying to finish. Ben is especially behind (orly?), so Jay (who is finished and has immunity) decides to help him. This is nice and all, but whatever happened to bitchy backbiting? Remember when Ricky asked Christian for a zipper pull during Season 5, and it was like he was asking for blood?? “Nice”, “helpful” and “polite” isn’t interesting television. Bunim/Murray – please make a note of it.

So the outfits are coming together, and we see Amy’s “fire” look. OMG! WTF? ROFLMAO! FDIC! PG-13! KFC! Anthony wonders aloud why Amy’s model has “hairy titties”, adding “She needs a Nair affair up in there”. And he’s not kidding…

Somehow I think Phillip de Garnier is to blame for this.

It’s time for the runway show, and Heidi introduces the judges – Michael Kor(ange)s, Meana Garzilla, and some French dude. Let’s start the show…

The models walk and the judges gawk. And the look on Nina Garcia’s face when she saw Amy’s model with the hairy cleavage was PRICELESS.

Heidi tells Anthony, Emilio and Jay they are safe. This leaves Mila, Seth Aaron, Maya, Ben, Amy and Jonathan as the lowest and highest.

Mila. Boring. Nina thought it looked like another designer. Michael wondered if Maya is a one-trick (black & white color-blocking) pony.

Seth Aaron. The judges LOVED the black leather jacket and the head-to-toe “New York night air” look. Cough, cough, hack.

Maya. The judges loved her water themed dress, but Nina mentions how Maya always seems to create designs that are reminiscent of established designers.

Amy. Amy … Amy … Amy. Where to begin? Heidi calls her look a “Cat in a baby sling”. Michael calls it a “Barmaid serving hair”. And Nina thought it was “just weird”. Even after Michael told them to get rid of the hair, Nina still hated the look. Not since Santino Rice’s Season 2 lingerie disaster (below) has Nina Garcia had such hatred for a garment. It was just not aesthetically pleasing…

Ben. The judges HATE his shark-inspired suit. They call it “ill-fitting” and they dislike that the pants look like there is a jockstrap over them.

Jonathan. The judges really love this look – especially how he created the textile that would match his model’s skin. Luckily for Jonathan, the judges DO NOT become enveloped in a fit of laughter when viewing his garment.

The judges discuss – and it’s time for the results.

Seth Aaron is in (I thought he might win, and I think he did too). Jonathan is the winner this week…

Maya and Mila are safe – leaving Ben’s Jump-The-Shark and Amy’s Boobie Bowl O’ Hair.

Amy is in, and Ben is sent home. That's what happens when you go swimming with sharks...

Next week – a dreaded Team Challenge!!

On Hold

daviddust@gmail.com (David Dust) — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 11:55:00 +0000

Do you ever get the feeling that someone has pushed the "Hold" button on your life - making sure you never move forward, but also never backwards? That is the way I've been feeling lately.

Actually, "On Hold" wouldn't be so bad - but it feels like the Hold button will soon be turned off, sending me hurling into the not-so-comforting unknown. The future isn't looking so bright right now in so many ways - and that really sucks.

Waking up in the morning is so much easier when you have something to look forward to. And right now the best I can hope for is to stay On Hold for as long as possible.

And NO - I'm not talking about anything directly health-related (don't have a heart attack Mom) - I'm just talking about life in general. Or LACK of a life, in general...

The Peen Pants Were Plagiarized!

daviddust@gmail.com (David Dust) — Fri, 12 Mar 2010 11:38:00 +0000

You may have already seen the now infamous "Peen Pants" (above) - which were sent down the runway in Madrid last month by designer Isabel Mustache. But, as Lady Bunny informs us - this look is not new...

I wonder if "Eldridge de Paris" is going to sue?...

Transform Your Hoodie Into A Backpack

I am horrible at following instructions, so I'm not sure if this works or not - but "on paper" it's a neat idea. Anybody want to try it and see if it can be done?

Actually, anyone who can figure out how to transform this guy-in-a-hoodie (below) into my "boyfriend", DEFINITELY send me an email...

Calen For Congress

daviddust@gmail.com (David Dust) — Thu, 11 Mar 2010 10:55:00 +0000

I know many of you saw this video yesterday, but I think it should be posted on EVERY blog - gay, straight or whatever. I love how young Calen is able to think through the information presented to him ("husband and husband") and come to the natural conclusion - THEY LOVE EACH OTHER. That's all.

If a child can understand this so easily, why can't the Wingnuts?

Afternoon Dance Break - Groove Is In The Heart

daviddust@gmail.com (David Dust) — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 20:38:00 +0000

Dee Lite's dance hit "Grove Is In The Heart" was one of my favorites ... until the lead singer and I almost got into a fistfight. One late night (actually, it was morning) at the Sound Factory, Lady Miss Kier and I ended up dancing beside each other underneath the huge disco ball. However, Miss Thang dances like a flailing retarded chicken - and she kept bumping into me. After about the third time, my friends could see I was about to attack so they got me off the dance floor before I broke my foot off in her ass.

FYI: I have long-since forgiven Miss Kier, because her music was/is so damn catchy.

Work It, Osama!

daviddust@gmail.com (David Dust) — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 19:18:00 +0000

Oh I bet Miss Rice was NOT happy to see this...
