Where are you Róisín Murphy? We Need You!

Two weeks ago I saw a drag queen in a turban perform to 'Royal T" by Italian house DJ Crookers featuring Róisín Murphy and I had a thought: what happened to that B???  I LOVED her! 

                   
                         


This above colab with the sexy video appears to be Rosin's latest output. Sadly this was released in autumn of last year and her last full album, Overpowered, which was brilliant, came out in 2007! 

("Just gonna pop out for some milk right quick") 

My beloved Irish chanteuse with the wicked style and sly delivery, where have you ran off to? I heard you're having babies, but why not give us more of that sharp Euro trash disco sing-alongs? it is Summer, afterall and this boy has even started "working out" (ie: situps and squats at home. Don't get carried away) and could use some energizing jams. 

Róisín, rush back to us! 

Can We Get This Show in the States?!

When waiting for your boyfriend to pick you up to go to Housing Works, what do you do? Why sip coffee and watch "Twiggy's Frock Exchange", of course

Shown on the BBC back in 2008, the premise is 100 women participate in one giant clothes swap, each donating 5 items of clothes to be chosen by others and then restyled in a "customizing corner"

(remaking a wool dress)

But the real kick is when the celebs pop by with their own item and watch the audience go nuts. Greedy, greedy, greedy. But with Twiggy hosting a celeb roster of Sophie
Ellis-Bextor, Matthew Williamson, Lulu Guinness, Fearne Cotton and my fave, Róisín Murphy, the style factor is beyond rich.


I love in this clip how Róisín basically admits she's a male model whore, that Grace Jones is her idol and that these shoes are torturous unessentials. And then they make the audience earn they keep by professing how they'd style them and prove they can walk in them!




Could you just imagine this in America? Get BRAVO on the phone right now!

Gucci's Guilty Little Secret

Gucci's perfume ads have a formula: cast some sorta recognizable actors from circa 2004, shoot them in black and white and have some hot in Europe band cover some hot in Europe single from the 80's


















Worked with Gucci by Gucci/ James Franco/ Róisín Murphy covering Bryan Ferry's "Slave to Love".

Works here with Gucci Guilty/ Evan Rachel Wood+Chris Evans/ Friendly Fires covering Depeche Mode's "Strangelove".

If it ain't broke, Gucci....

Go On, Fool!
