Gay vintage video

Well, they certainly don’t help matters, nor did they hurt them whereas I was concerned. He looked like he’d be absent from filming to start his very own chapter of a Madonna fan club. Even football players, both of whom are wearing half-jerseys, get in on the dancing action.

All the work I do is generally self-funded. A sight gag uses the Washington Monument as a phallus. From the opening scene of all the ripped, hot men exercising to the sheer camp value of Livvie’s spandex outfit and sweatband, this video and song are the shizzle lean. 

Naturally, the song’s “unless it’s horizontally” message was lost on me.

While not banned, like their 1982 video for 1982’s “Body Language,” MTV wouldn’t play the video and that was during the time when they actually played videos! Rude! Would “Club Tropicana” emerge triumphant? As in yearning to be “the empress of fashion” and “the captain of the Enterprise.” The former was achieved with Cindy Wilson’s Judy Jetson-inspired ensemble, plus Ricky Wilson’s and Keith Strickland’s flying saucer-shaped hats in pink and white, respectively.

There is also an odd The Brady Bunch quality to their dance number done in the spirit of campiness and not of general lack of rhythm (I’m looking at you Jan and Peter!).

This future Pride anthem made me burn my umbrella and run outside to see what the forecast had in store. Things culminate in a party where a naked Hank waits on all the men he has met. However, there were a few sequences that bear mentioning, including a sweet ass shot in the showers.Then there’sthe shirtless sweaty man in a hard hat, ahem, turning a crank.

Just sayin’. “Turned On!” features plenty of slow-motion “money shots,” and it ends with a clever punchline.

The hourlong “10:30 P.M. Monday” (October 23 at 9:15 p.m.) has Bob (Jeff Sattler) receiving an anonymous letter indicating the title day and time. I’m still dizzy and waiting for gyms to catch up with Stevie’s exercise regimen on the treadmill, complete with blue neon lighting to highlight it on all sides, with additional blue neon used as overhead lighting for added effect.

Werk it out!

Fun Fact: Nicks was inspired to write “Stand Back” after hearing Prince’s “Little Red Corvette.”In fact, The Purple Oneplayed thesynthesizer on the recording, but never received a credit on the album. He seemed both out of place and in the right place at the same time in my teenage eyes. 

Fun Fact: Joel considers the song as being “hopeful” regarding the plight of the unemployed steel workers.

And all the painted men in Speedos, which sounds like a name that belonged to a one-hit wonder band from the era. But this is vintage Madonna, when she sported crucifix earrings and appears to have snatched up every rubber bracelet she could find at Merry-Go-Round in the greater Los Angeles area (remember that store?).

And for pure, unabashed sexuality there was nothing hotter than Ms.

Ciccone rolling around on asphalt; pre-dating similar moves during her infamous MTV Video Music Awards appearance by a year. And vice versa.

Which begs the question, did EJ have a handy, I mean, hand in selecting these dancers, or in the very least applied their body paint? My favorite faux gay, Jack Tripper, never did anything like that on Three’s Company.

As Larry awaits Richard’s release, he reflects on their relationship.
