  • America Embraces Jayms Blonde
    America Embraces Jayms Blonde MIAMI HERALD: A hairdresser by trade and a secret agent by choice, Jayms Blonde and his faithful pedicurist Precious Needmoore, lead the fight to save the planet from bad hair and bad air. Armed with bulletproof-mousse, Uzi blow-dry- ers, and hair-curler-hand-grenades, they rescue the dude-in-distress, and make saving the earth look fabulous. CONETICUTT POST: The combination of wild, globetrotting adventure and stylish graphic novel illustrations every few pages gives the book a wonderful over-the-top feel. Blonde’s foes are evil capitalists whose industries spike global warming and other eco-disasters. The hero and his cohorts work for STOP (Stop Terrorizing Our Planet) which is covertly funded by media celebrities. James Bond fought an organization known as SPECTRE (Special Executive for Counter-Intelligence, Terrorism, Revenge and Extortion) led by the supremely evil Ernst Blofeld. Blonde and STOP’s primary foe is ZENRON (Zillionaire Environmental Nihilist Reinstating Oligarchy Nobility). The group is repre- sented in the first adventure by “the richest, most beautiful and most heartless woman in the universe: Zaroya Sylva Kenmore Cohen Abud Grimaldi Chang.” Cabell clearly had a ball transforming literature and film’s most promiscuous het- erosexual spy into his very active gay hero. KIRKUS DISCOVERIES: Cabell makes the over-the-top zaniness and mock action-hero antics fun, and everything congeals into a wildly enjoyable ride for readers who enjoy the adventures of a muscle-bound, crime-fighting queen in tights. A super-silly, whirling first episode that will leave gay superhero fans scratching their heads-and eager for the next installment.

  • Dwight Clark Touchdown in the 1982 NFC Championship, Sending the 49Ers to the Super Bowl? ANSWER: the Catch
    Delaware Winter Invitational, 2010 Old School themed trash packet by Mark Pellegrini, Mike Marra-Powers, and others Tossups 1) An elevator music version of this song was used in the mall scene in Minority Report. This song, which won the 1962 Grammy for Record of the Year, re-launched lyricist Johnny Mercer's career. It has since become a staple song for Andy Williams. The singer tells about two drifters who set off to see the world, crossing the titular object, which is wider than a mile. Originally sung by Audrey Hepburn for Breakfast at Tiffany's, this is for ten points what Henry Mancini song? ANSWER: "Moon River" 2) One play of this name occurred in the 1976 Grey Cup, when Ottawa tight end Tony Gabriel faked a post pattern and scored the game-winning touchdown in the corner. Another play with this name occurred in the 2001 Michigan-Michigan State game, when MSU quarterback Jeff Smoker threw the game-winning touchdown to T.J. Duckett with one second left. A more well-known play with this name occurred in the 1954 World Series, when Vic Wertz’s liner to deep center was caught by Willie Mays. These plays all share what name, which for ten points usually refers to the Joe Montana to Dwight Clark touchdown in the 1982 NFC Championship, sending the 49ers to the Super Bowl? ANSWER: The Catch 3) This film marked the major motion picture debut of Christopher Lloyd as Taber. The role of the central villain in this movie was turned down by six actresses before largely- unknown Louise Fletcher agreed to play it.

As founding members of “girl groups” who formed during the 1960s, they each created a sound and style that expanded the foundation set by forebears like the Shirelles, the Chantels, and the Bobbettes. The hits are legion. The groups are legendary. Hearing each woman tell her story, it’s clear that being in a group was often a springboard to reinvention, sometimes within the group itself, other times as a solo artist, and occasionally venturing into spheres beyond music. From opening the Motown Revue as Martha & the Vandellas to presiding on Detroit’s City Council, Martha Reeves embodies fearless strength and dedication. From being christened one of the “Sweethearts of the Apollo” as a member of Patti LaBelle & the Blubelles to becoming the very first Music Ambassador for Trenton, NJ, Sarah Dash is rich in soul and spirit.

  • The Village People by Robert Kellerman
    The Village People by Robert Kellerman Encyclopedia Copyright © 2015, glbtq, Inc. Entry Copyright © 2002, glbtq, Inc. Reprinted from http://www.glbtq.com The Village People were a disco-era singing group formed in the late 1970s. Although the group never identified itself as gay, its primary appeal was clearly to a gay male audience. It successfully translated the interests, coded language, and iconography of the gay male subculture into music that crossed over into mainstream pop. Because the general public was largely unaware of the meanings and suggestiveness of the lyrics and costumes associated with the group, the gay audience not only enjoyed the music on its own terms, but also relished the irony of a mainstream audience unknowingly embracing subculture values and images. The Village People were formed in 1977 by French record producer Jacques Morali, who was inspired to create the group after seeing performer Felipe Rose, dressed as a Native American, singing and dancing in the streets of Greenwich Village. Hence the group's name. Morali approached Rose about forming a group and then, with his partner Henri Belelo, auditioned other singers by advertising in trade publications for "singers with mustaches." All members of the group performed in costume to represent other masculine (and, not coincidentally, gay male fantasy) archetypes: Native American Rose, construction worker David Hodo, policeman Victor Willis, soldier Alex Briley, cowboy Randy Jones, and biker leatherman Glenn Hughes. Rose was openly gay, but the other singers never addressed their sexual orientation. Regardless, The Village People's core audience was undeniably gay men, and their most popular hits were overtly homoerotic.

  • “Y.M.C.A.”--The Village People (1978) Added to the National Registry: 2019 Essay by Josiah Howard (Guest Post)*
    “Y.M.C.A.”--The Village People (1978) Added to the National Registry: 2019 Essay by Josiah Howard (guest post)* Aside from their shared dream of becoming rich and famous, Village People--all six band members--really didn’t have much in common. Still, their outsize fantasy, one that they’d work tirelessly to achieve, would prove to be enough. For a time at least. Mention the Village People and you’ll probably hear a snicker or two, or get a pointed pursed lip and side-eye. If that doesn’t happen you might watch as someone throws their arms into the air and contorts them into the shape of the letters Y, M, C, and A. During the late 1970s and early '80s, Village People sold more than 100 million records, had three top ten pop hits, four top twenty dance/club hits, toured the world (selling out New York City’s 20,789-seat Madison Square Garden twice), and made a major motion picture--1980’s “Can’t Stop the Music.” They were award winners, television staples and pop culture icons whose music played everywhere: from discotheques to doctor’s offices, from underground sex clubs to bar mitzvahs, from sporting events to the local mall. And they did something more. As Casablanca Records President Neil Bogart once unequivocally observed, “It’s just Donna (Summer) and the boys (Village People): they’re the ones who keep the lights on around here.” They kept the lights on elsewhere as well. The brainchild of French/Moroccan music producers Jacques Morali and Henri Belolo--who’d previously made a name for themselves with two top twenty hits for the Ritchie Family--1975’s “Brazil” and 1976’s “The Best Disco in Town”-- Village People, it was decided, was going to do what the Ritchie Family had not managed to: ascend to the number one spot on the all-important “Billboard” pop charts.

  • Toward a De-Colonial Performatics of the US Latina and Latino Borderlands
    Introduction Toward a De-Colonial Performatics of the US Latina and Latino Borderlands Chela Sandoval, Arturo J. Aldama, and Peter J. García Latinas and Latinos represent the largest and fastest-growing ethnic community in the United States after “non-Hispanic” Whites (14 percent of the US population, approximately 55 million people in 2010).1 Yet the cultural impact of US Latina and Latino aesthetic production has yet to be fully recognized within the US nation-state and beyond. This book moves beyond the by now de-politicized and all-too-familiar cultural theory of the twentieth century and beyond so-called “radicalized” ex- amples of aesthetic production to unravel how culture is performance. Moreover, the following chapters travel beyond the linguistic surfaces and aesthetic limitations of “Latina and Latino” cultural production to reveal the less familiar and unexplored performance terrains of the “Borderlands.” Indeed, Performing the US Latina and Latino Borderlands is a book that challenges readers to engage those profound intercul- tural, psychic, social, and transnational effects that are being generated through US Latina and Latino testimonio, theater, ceremony, ritual, sto- rytelling, music, dance, improvisation, play, nagualisma-o, call-and- response, spoken-word, visual, body, digital, and sculptural enactments. Each contributing author introduces readers to performance topics, per- forming artists, and performative enactments that comprise the field of Borderlands Performance Studies. This field is identifiable through its commitment to an alter-Native cultural engineering, the technologies of which we editors identify as “de-colonizing performatics,” and the mestizaje, the hybridity, the bricolage, the rasquache interventions orga- nized around de-colonization that we call “perform-antics.” Join us then 1 2 · Chela Sandoval, Arturo J.
