Heart…Band members – Anne and Nancy Wilson (and the famed group itself) have just been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. Gosh, Cher must be eating her heart out, eh? "Heart" first hit it big on the charts while musically-based in Canada with the release of a catchy tune titled “Dreamboat Annie”. According to the musicians, their music was greatly influenced by hard rock, heavy metal, as well as folk music. Their popularity declined in the early 1980s, but bounced back in 1985, at which point they experienced even greater success with hard rock ballads well into the 90’s. Fans are no doubt still spinning coveted LP’s which feature Jupiter's Darling (2004), Red Velvet Car (2010), and Fanatic (2012). Congrats, Heart!
Jimmy Fallon…once quite the fashionista, the quirky late-night talk-show host has slipped a little these days, especially when it comes to sporting a bit of individual style on-camera. Last night, for instance, Fallon tossed on a dark suit, which was quite classy, indeed. But, unfortunately he elected to mix-and-match it with a plain white dress shirt and plain dark tie. Boring! A pretty well-knotted tie featuring peacock colors (in stripes or free-floating patterns) would have set the “look” off beautifully. Time to hire a wardrobe consultant, Jimmy.
Regis Philbin…gosh, Dave Letterman must have been stumped for guests last night. What gives, Regis Philbin first up on the slate? Sheesh! That’swas really scraping the barrel in my estimation. And, Don Rickles – believe it or not – was so “unfunny”. Surprising, when you consider that the aging comic used to be able to bust a gut at the drop of a hat. On Thursday night, he dropped the ball, instead. Time to retire? News at 11!
Sandra Bullock…talk about busting a gut! The previews of Bullock’s new flick – The Heat – were cracking audiences up when they were treated to previews just before a screening of Les Miserables in Santa Monica on New Year’s Day. The out-of-the-spotlight darling may have a winner on her hands, who knows?
And, how was your day?
