    My last post about The Prestige reminded me that I have not yet posted the trailer for Arthur and the Invisibles. How could I have been so neglectful?! For you who have not yet seen it, here it is courtesy of Yahoo.

    The Prestige opens tonight! Guess where your Webmistress and Webmaster will be later tonight. That’s right…we’ll be delightfully viewing Bowie larger-than-life on the silver screen. Reviews and comments from the media will posted as I receive them, along with my own humble review.

    A brief update on the bit we did in May about Hugh Jackman recounting to Bowie how he sold his tickets to the show that Bowie did in Australia in 1981. The Orlando CBS affiliate Local 6 has added some more to the story. They quoted Jackman as saying, “Bowie went, ‘Oh yeah, I see.…

    If anyone has ever doubted Bowie’s genius, then doubt no more. Never in a million years did I dream that Bowie would participate in something as downright silly as Spongebob Squarepants. That’s right, the same man who wrote the line “Research has pierced all extremes of my sex” is voicing the character Lord Royal Highness…

    One of my guilty pleasures is reading trashy celebrity gossip; it makes me feel so normal and un-screwed-up in comparison. Since Defamer and Page Six only cover the West and East Coasts of the United States, I subscribe to the weekly dish from Popbitch.com. I like to be well-rounded in useless gossip. Anyway, imagine my…

    What is up with this Bowie-Paris Hilton connection that the press seems so keen to make?  Here is yet another one from TMZ.com.  For the love of all that is good and holy, can the popular media please stop putting Bowie’s name in the same articles as She-Who-Shall-Not-Be-Named?
