The Eurovison Song Contest Must Be Outlawed!

Manolo says, after seeing the latest pictures from the this year’s manifestation of the Eurovision “song” contest the Manolo has decided that action must be taken. The Eurovision Song Contest must be outlawed! Here are the Manolo’s top five reasons from this year. 1. Shrieking Moldovan hotties in the low-rise, leather half-kilty pants. 2. Danish la Cage aux Fools. 3. Maltese Goldfinger stalker and his victim. 4. Menacing Austro-Seussian fur creatures and their spokesman. 5. Nothing they can ever put on the Eurovision stage will exceed the entertainment value of My Lovely Horse.

Sanjaya

Manolo says, the Manolo does not usually follow the American Idol, as his tolerance for cheese and schmaltz is surprisingly low, however, he is now unable to ignore the rise of this Sanjaya person. So, he has very nice hair, yes? Unfortunately, as everyone acknowledges, his singing voice, unlike his hair, lacks texture and depth and volume, although by the usual American Idol singing standards, in which molto fortissimo fortissimo is considered just the good start, this is not necessarily the bad thing. What he does have is the innocent and naive charm, and the undeniable stage presence that can…

Dorcs!

Manolo says, Here is the very amusing fake commercial from the Canada. The Manolo especially appreciates this bit of dialogue: Nancy: “But they’re so ugly!” Jim: “That’s how you know they’re comfortable.” This says everything about how many not very bright peoples regard the feetwear, that only those shoes which are wickedly ugly can provide comfort. When will these peoples learn that comfort and style are not incompatible? One does not obviate the other. Yes, if you are cheap and all you wish to spend is $34.99 you will undoubtedly be disappointed in your shoes, unless you are able to…

Project Runway 2

Manolo says, the Manolo he is indeed most happy that the Project Runway it has returned for the second season. Mainly because it means many more weekly visits from the super fantastic Tim Gunn. Last night the Bravo they showed the two hours worth of the Project Runway, starting off by sending the chubby boy and the poor Alabama girl home almost immediately for the crime of producing the luster lacking dresses. Then it was the challenge for the designers to be to transmorgify the mostly appalling clothes on their backs into the fashion outfits. And here the true personalities…

The Awards of the Emmy

Manolo says, many of the Manolo’s internet friends have been asking the Manolo for his opinion of the show of the awards of the Emmys and the clothing of the famosos who were there. In the word…meh. The show and the clothes they were so boring, that only the few minutes could be managed before the Manlo he felt it necessary to flip the channel in the hopes of finding more entertaining fare, perhaps like this. Yes, there were the few who were willing to entertain us with their awful fashion. Such as this sad girl, who was screaming for…
