“tl;dr” Overdrive…

Yes, I wore the soles off my 20-e Doc's many an eve
dancing to the 12" mix of Ministry's "Everyday is Halloween"
in back-alley nightclubs where I was years away from years from
being 'of age' to attend in the first place

(translation: the main thing that made it fun--
or at least that's how it seems, looking back)

back in ancient history, also known as
my bereaved degenerate youth 

 I've been revisiting some of the more
 dynamic moments from what could aptly be filed away in memory
as 'The Clintagious Chronicles' due to
the current book project on which I've been working

Degeneracy: A Love Letter.

// R.I.P., oh Long Lost Love...despite the toxic goulash of highlights,
lowlifes and embarrassingly awkward good times, how
exhilarating it seems your freedom was // 

Whatever the case, here's a recent update "from the set,"
featuring the inimitable beauty of actress/model Mageina Tovah
in the first of her two looks for the day: 




Copious detail/commentary is provided on the clip's YouTube page,
including info on the other peeps present who
deserve some serious 'propers' of their own.
(Irene Urias from Hairroin Salon, Genevive Lamb from Dior, and
of course my co-conspirator, Amanda Brooks:
childhood f(r)iend/former 'partner in crime'-turned-responsible mom)

Maendi and I lived by the edict that everyday presented
a new opportunity: the chance to become whomever/whatever we want
by dressing up.

To this day, I'm a tremendous advocate of the belief--
I mean, it was a mere three weeks ago, yet
I'm already missing Halloween.

With an outfit as genius as what Jared Gold concocted me,
how could I not?

 

and for the more detail-obsessed
FASHION DIE-HARDS OUT THERE,
here's a considerably more comprehensive 5 minute clip in which
The Master of Delicate Decadence
shares everything from the costume's "reveal"
to secret compartments ensconced within: 

 

As for All Hallow's Eve 'proper,'

I gotta tell ya: generally speaking,
I was stoked to see so many
Alice in Wonderland
characters runnin' around...
There were a slew of them both at the 'Bitches Brew' party

as well as a hearty smattering of Mad Hatters afterwards
when we hit the Brite Spot
for some "fine" (enough) dining.

Seriously now: being a "Glad Hatter" myself--how could I not adore them?

Despite accusations that I'm a 'camera whore,' (harumph!)
there aren't many pictures of me from the evening.
I managed to snap one of that dang adorable little Janine Jarman and
face-beater extraordinaire Noelle
within the first few minutes of our arrival,


the cheers began
as guests arrived...

 

Q: Ever "spanked the monkey"?

(Effing genius coincidence captured, that...)

As for me, I danced to the phenomenal tuneage spun by D.J.s Marta & Jen,
workin' my 'Demented Barber, Circa '99...1899, That Is' accessories
for all they--and the accompanying attitude in which I came "dressed"--
were worth




(looks like SOMEONE needs a hug, hrmm?
Just call me 'Mr. Congeniality!')

∞ ∞ ∞ ∞ ∞

Hence the "Not My Best Look" oilslick on my gesicht


(Hand on a Merrie breast, though Mr. Gold seems unimpressed...)


Rockin' TWO TYPES OF CLEAVE...
Thanks for the mammaries, Miss Sarah Merrie!  [Ampersand.Hearts.Semicolon]

Another shot from the evening:


Kaiden as "Epic Fail: Scene 'LOL'," Stevie Ryan as a pretty version of Pee Wee Herman,
and Adam Paranoia throwin' Teen Wolf in a most serious way... 

∞ ∞ ∞ ∞ ∞

And speaking of serious,
I was seriously surprised to learn that when my pal Brandon came to town for a visit
he comped me a frickin'--well, really expensive Madonna ticket.
9th row front, 3rd center of the 'T-shaped' stage
for one night
vs.
more than an entire month's rent?

Can't say I would've made that one happen myself...


* Thanks again, B! *  (I love how undeniably excited he is...)

and of course, via his iPhone
we've got


"Pics or It Didn't Happen"

O.K... so Home Skillet put on a phenomenal show.
I won't make any references about how "I would hope so"; moreover,
I'll refrain from utilizing any clichéd monikers in my commentary.
(Seriously journalists: by this point, any hack who refers to Mz. M as "The Material Girl"
should be force-fed the Oxford English Dictionary 
One. Page. At a time.)

but let me just tell you: when she threw down some
DOUBLE DUTCH... 



Well, let's just say... despite another '80s ricochet
(nod to Keith Haring notwithstanding)
I was seventeen shades of impressed.

It's no secret I've been trying to assemble my own double-dutch squad
capable of weaving our way through the ropes while
dressed in elaborate couture
for quite some time...

So until 'The Swingers' come to fruition,
I'll cease this gargantuan post with the note

What I'm really dying to know is:
Has anyone else heard the rumor that Alexander McQueen
will be designing a limited-run for Target?

They've scored some outstanding talent in the past
but McQueen?

Truly: it's a shame Isabella Blow isn't here with us
to share her thoughts on the topic

(not to mention her opinions in general--but that's a given)

And on a final rash note about fash:

Did anybody rack up any great scores among the merch available via H & M
through their collaboration via Comme Des Garcons?

I wasn't able to devote the entire morning of the 13th to waiting in line
in an attempt to score at least one piece of the instant collectibles.
(Different story altogether with the Viktor & Rolf launch from...hrmm...
Two years ago, wasn't it?)

However, thanks to my dear pal Pedro,
I didn't completely miss out on the goods
that were gone in...what?  Something like 17 minutes?

And though you might have thought it'd never happen,
this is me,
waaaay all kinds of outta here!

August 10, 2008: “Parties”

As a little kid, I remember summer vacations seeming like extended slices of forever…and visits from Santa? Pretty much a lifetime away.

These days, weeks pass in what seems like the time it takes to get my hair done…(then again, I do go for some pretty elaborate shit…)

And you know what else?

My fingernails are still rimmed in a filthy black from the spur-of-the-moment RIT dye job I did on my black Ksubis to make them match my plain black jacket. I’ve been known to have a bit of a conniption fit when my blacks don’t match…and regarding the term “conniption”? I grew up in Arkansas. It’s part of my twisted charm. Just like the obnoxious music some denizen among my cluster of quaint little cottages is playing at the moment, I have three words to offer:

Deal with it.

So anyway, I know a multitude of posts and various commentary have been floating around this dang fanangled internet for quite some time now regarding the Hello Drama! fashion show. Both the harlequin-hopped-up-on-helium make-up (by Michele Monaco) and the outfits themselves were out of my usual “comfort zone.’ But you know what?

I already know what I already know. Ya feel me?

Here’s a backstage shot of me from that night with L.A.’s latest addition, Kaiden Blake:

As an obnoxious Aries (who? Impulsive? Impatient? ME?), it’s no wonder I’m pals with so many relatives among the fire signs—namely, Leos…as it’s their time of astrological reign.

Some nights include hitting up multiple events (which is a luxury problem: Full Disclosure.

Last Friday? Three of us, two birthdays, one night.

Our first stop was a sideshow (s)extravaganza (O.K.: for once, the “(s)” is fully for the lulz. Got it?) being thrown for actress/model Mageina Tovah. Look how damn tan and HEALTHY she looks next to my pasty ol’ spf 30 sunblock self!

And though I feel I look like death’s rectum in this shot, I can’t help but share it because it’s such a flattering photo of Jared:

Besides for appearing in a buttload of movies and T.V. shows, Mageina’s modeled for several Jared Gold fashion shows, as has the star of our next stop:

Lil’ Miss Audrey Kitching of the cotton candy-hued hair, whose shin-dig was a surprise put together by Alyx Suttle and Jessicka, two of her West Coast friends.

with Alyx, who threw the party at her store The Elegant Mess

Jessicka, however, I’d say was anything but a mess. As a matter of fact, this skinny betch pulled of what’s undoubtedly my

Look of the Moment:

Brightly-hued stings of licorice tied together and worn as necklaces? FULLY support it.

Knotted together and worn as an American Apparel-esque headband, however?

DON’T. EVEN. CONSIDER. IT.

Think happy thoughts instead:

Jared, Presenting One Of His Infamous Cakes

need. piece. now.

Justin Coloma and Linda Strawberry Join In The KITCH SANDWICH

With Roxy and B.J., Who Gets The Idea…EDIBLE ACCESSORIES?
That’d be a Hell Yeah!

After We Gnawed On Her Necklaces (Keep It Clean, Kids!)

We Had A Bit Of Fun In The Dressing Room…

Though As With Anything, My Face “Gave It Away…”

When I begin turning, it’s best for everyone that I make “Bye Bye”…and SOON. Kaiden, Jared and I began to make tracks back to his vehicular

But I had one special gift left to give…

The Question Remains:

Fact or fiction?

Kiss Kiss!

Jared Gold Reveals Halloween Costume to Clint Catalyst Pt 1

There’s some unfortunate ‘angles’ of me in this one (umm, yeah HI: Fatty McFatterson much?), but I’m determined to get the F over myself and showcase the details of Jared’s inimitable genius.

*THIS IS THE LONGER OF THE TWO VIDEO CLIPS, BUT SHOULD BE DROOL-WORTHY FOR FASHION FIENDS WHO APPRECIATE ATTENTION TO INTRICATE DETAIL.*

What I requested? (Translation = “what [the customer] ordered?”)

Bloodthirsty barber, circa ‘99…
1899, that is.

Not “Sweeny Todd” specific, as

a) I can’t sing,

b) Look like a dungheap compared to Johnny Depp (since most folks associate the Sweenster with J.D. due to the most recent ‘take’ on Mr. Todd),

and

c) Wouldn’t want to be confined to a barber shop.

I mean, REALLY.

I’m uber-fagatronic in this footage– but hey, just another trait I’ve gotta ‘own,’ maing.

Besides, what’s key here is the CLOTHING…and accoutrements. // DIG IT

Tarina Tarantino’s Official Barbie Release Party

This news is a few days late (frickin’ deadlines…), but July 22, 2008 marks the official date for when I was “BUSTED!” (www.busteddaily.com) for my attire at Tarina Tarantino’s official Barbie doll release party. I’m a sicko; I know– but seriously: it fills my heart with glee:

A friend and I have joked that making the “Worst Dressed List” in one of those shit-rags is a lifetime goal—especially since the attire is almost always by my favorite designers—and while the site’s not on glossy pages in a grocery store check-out line, it’s one step closer…

Plus I’m with Maryse, Queen Bitch Supreme of the WWE—who’ss donning full-on retro Barbie look via a make-over by quite likely my FAVORITE designer, Jared Gold.

My pic comes up as #2 of 7… and who else made the list?

Margaret Cho

and Tarina Tarantino,

Two of my favorite people on the planet.

Proof/Pudding.
Riiiight?

The site obviously uses the term “Busted!” with a multitude of meanings, as complimentary things are written about both of them in separate areas.

All I have is my name credited, so I’m opting for “BUSTED!” in the very worst sense.

O.K., not very worst… but if you get the notion of something being ’so bad it’s good.’ then I know you know what I mean.

And um, I need to take it easy on the “naw mean,”
obviously.

For party pics that aren’t among those on WireImage et al, have fun scroll scroll scrolling below!

The event itself was back on the 17th, but I’ve been smothered beneath a succession of work– hence the tardiness.

Otherwise, here are my “Thank God! I’m Validated!” swiped-and-watermarked:

with the adorable Audrey Kitching and Rich Royal

with Madeline Zima and the phenomenal Tarina Tarantino

(not my best shot — yes, I know)

but
