Wonderland Burlesque's As The Diva Turns! - Lizzo, Rebecca, & Halsey

Wonderland Burlesque's
As The Diva Turns!
Lizzo, Rebecca, & Halsey

Spotlighting some recent diva turns...

I must say, you are in for quite the treat.

Up first? Lizzo, as we've never seen or heard her before. Musically? It's vintage Avril Lavigne meets Broadway Camp. Visually? Hey, honey, Cher wants her weave and her outfit back and Michael Jackson's kids are looking for a payday. But, hey... it's all in good fun and good fun it is. Can this girl do anything wrong? She looks good! I'm thinking Super Bowl halftime!
 
Then, bringing us a bit of old-school Dallas drama, it's the ever-evolving Rebecca Black's wall of sound, smacking reality in the face with the floor-pounding ethereal promise of Salvation.

And finally, screeching away like a D.I.Y. punk rocker who's downed a few too many Adderall with a six-pack of Monster energy drinks, we have fan-favorite Halsey, exploring her inner dominatrix with the acidic slasher Safeword.

All in all, a trio of destined-to be-classic diva turns.

Tequila, do your job, girl, indeed!

Midweek hump?
Feeling in the dumps?
Here's some music to make your heart jump!

Weekend Onesie: All Things Cher!

Weekend Onesie: 
All Things Cher!

Yes, she's a real doll.

I don't know if she sold her soul to rock 'n roll, but she certainly did to Mego Corporation (and, later, Mattel).

Let's turn back time, and take a brief look at all things Cher!

(And... if I've missed something - and I'm sure I have - let me know via the comments section or email me!)

You know I adore her.
Would do anything for her.
Our one and only, Cher.

Cher and... that guy.


Growing hair with Cher!

Cher, bagged and tagged.
Must be a discount item in certain markets?

A world of fashion!

I don't think this actually went beyond the planning stage...
But, if you know different, let me know!

Sound like her...

Tuesday Titillation: Count Some More! (31-40)

Tuesday Titillation: 
Count Some More! 
(31-40)

More is always good.

I mean, there's something to be said for quality over quantity, but...

What if it's ALL good?

And it is... typically. 

Sure, something a bit off may slip through the old quality control matrix from time to time...

But even those occasions offer one an opportunity to strive for better, to improve, to reflect, to...

Add to your tally. 

So, do. Go on, now...

Count some more!

Is it a numbers game?
Then why not strive to win?
But remember... winner takes it all!
