The Forbidden Dance Fever

Manolo says, Ayyyyy! The Halle Berry she has the lambada mania!

The first manifestation, it is the provocative shimmy-shaking…

…Followed by the blatantly sexualized self groping…

…And finally, the victim forbidden-dances with the lavender man-rat.

P.S. Hallewood!

    From the Hasty Pudding Woman of the Year awards, aren’t they? Of course, she had to camp it up, self-deprecate and clown around. I am conflicted on whether or not she got the memo about the hamming.

    Something about Ms. Berry tells me this is a woman who really feels the need to say, “Look at me, I’m SEXY! Get it? SEXY! I can have ANY MAN I WANT! SEXY, damn it!”

    They made her write “I will not make Catwoman II” on the chalkboard ten times.

    I wonder if they made her spoof her Oscar speech. That I would’ve liked to have seen.

    Aha! the Bunny did some sleauthing…Manolo, Halle is not humping a rat….

    “…Before she was given the traditional brass pudding pot during a roast at Harvard’s Hasty Pudding Theater, Berry danced suggestively with a Harvard student dressed like a French poodle, which Berry’s presenter’s dubbed Dogman. ” — AP

    Still, very much in bad taste….but now at least the leg-humping makes sense.

    A Harvard student? If that’s true, then that’s proof of what I’ve always said: Education can not buy you a brain.

    It’s interesting to see responses on this site to various celebrities. It appears that Hasselhoff gets a pass for things that Berry will not, such as engaging in campy self-deprecating stunts. It couldn’t be a gender thing, could it? Personally I think she is magnificent although I spared myself the agony of watching catwoman. Then again, that’s probably a guy thing.

    Once again the Manolo nails it with the captions.

    actually, that french poodle was the main star of their show two years ago, “As The Word Turns”. i believe his musical solo was titled “Doggy Style”, which is why Halle then turned around on all fours. also, she was not wearing a bra under her white shirt. and she was under stage lights. brava!

    the harvard would be the good place to find the white powdered fairy dust that makes berry-ssima tres jolie, no? oui! the hasty pudding is famous for it!

    “Hasselhoff gets a pass for things that Berry will not, such as engaging in campy self-deprecating stunts.”

    I have yet to see Herr Hoff grabbing his naughty bits or humping a man-rat-poodle. Be assured that the moment this occurs, it will elicit a hearty and disappointed “eewwww” from me.

    *sigh* – First Larry Summers and now this. Yes this is indeed from the WGU (World’s Greatest University) annual Hasty Pudding award ceremony. Hopefully the man-rat, who is a Harvard College undergraduate, will run for president someday. That’ll teach im.

    The Truly Forbidden Dance!

    I swear I only had one brandied port with dinner tonight, but I must be seeing pink elephants and other alien creatures. For example, what is that weird “lavender man-rat” thing, as Manolo calls it, that Halle Berry is dancing…
