Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner

Game changers (and all the rest)

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, Survivor: Game Changers – Mamanuca Islands

Finally, the day we have all been waiting for (since December) is finally here – Survivor: Game Changers – Mamanuca Islands premieres tonight!

More important than the return of Queen SDT – Sandra obvi, not Sierra Dawn-Thomas – and the ability for llamas to once again watch the show without subtitling, the premiere marks the 500th episode of the great show.

From snakes and rats, to biting sharks, falling in fires and a whole lot of nudity, Survivor has well and truly delivered over the past 17 years and has definitely earned the giant novelty cake Probst wheels out to eat in front of the castaways during the first tribal.

(Seriously if that gets cut out of the edit like Purple Kelly, I am going scream).

So sit back and enjoy the return, knowing that I will once again be providing you with unrivalled access to the ongoings of the outgoings who become incomings to my arms in Pounderosa.

Who will be joining me first (and second, on Saturday)?

Welcome to the snakepit

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

Good news – I managed to find a way to skip out of the US without getting caught up in a Twitter war with POTUS nor having my Oscars sabotage coming back to bite me.

You’re fucking welcome Annette Benning – never again will I protest a lack of nomination for someone on such a large scale.

Anyway, I’m safe and sound and evidently world spread around the globe leading to none other than my dear chum Slash reaching out to reconnect.

It has been a few year’s since I’ve been in Slash’s Snakepit, so what do I make to bring us back together emotionally, professionally … and physically?

Everywhere you look

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

So turns out my scheme with Annette Bening to ruin the Oscars worked … sadly it was at the expense of two movies I loved and not Hacksaw Ridge and Fences: The Filming of a Play with Zero Adaptation.

The poor creators of La La Land, a beautiful nostalgic romp with heart, were in the throes of ecstasy when the discovered that it was all a lie and poor Moonlight, a spectacular movie that makes this almost-30-year-old feel like he sees an honest part of his (far less privileged) experience, didn’t get to experience the true joy of winning Best Picture.

But that is what happens when you join your plot to undermine PWC with Bening’s revenge scheme. To all parties, I am sorry.

Anyway, I’m trying to lay low for the next few days – lest I want to get deported from America again – so I got Leo to drop me at the closest bus station and hot tailed it away from the A-list and down to the mid-tier of my dear friend and star of the Teen Choice Award winning Fuller House, Jodie Sweetin.

What says thanks for helping me lay low?

Way low.

Until this brouhaha blows over.

Oscar Gold MMXVII: Gold with the Wind

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, Oscar Gold, Oscar Gold MMXVII: Gold with the Wind

Can you believe that the most wonderful day of the year – outside of Treat. Yo. Self. Day – is almost upon us again?

It feels like only yesterday that my girl Brie was taking the stage to win Best Actress … and this year it looks like another of my dear girlfriends, Em Stone, will take out the prize.

Unless of course I curse her like I did Beyonce at the Grammys – soz Bey!

Off topic but listen up ladies, if you want a shot at winning next year’s Best Actress award you better hope you’re my friend and have displayed our relationship on the blog.

Anyway, I’m thrilled to be sharing Oscar Gold with you for a third year in a row. I am so excited, it is only the A++ list this year and you are going to be so Gold with the Wind!

You can’t always get what you want, but she can

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

Mmmm child, let me tell you celebrating the tenth anniversary of Because I Said So and our first Grammy Gold in honour of Queen Bey’s inevitable slayage is exhausting.

And of course my dear friend, the ultimate Southern Belle Phaedra Parks reached out to catch-up and make sure that I am ok.

Side note: you have no idea how exhausting life is on the A-list.

Anywho, I jumped at Phae’s offer knowing she has been going through a rough time lately what with the bomb-threats and a dear friend is just what we both need.

Plus I need her to spill the tea ahead of the next reunion. What says who do you need me to throw shade at on the line?

Grammy Gold: Golden Little Pill

Grammy Gold, Grammy Gold: Golden Little Pill, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

In the beginning, there was Oscar Gold.

Then came a celebration for its scummy TV equivalent, Emmy Gold.

Now, I welcome you to the cooler version celebrating the best in music – and more importantly, spoken word albums – Grammy Gold.

I know what you’re thinking, “didn’t this bozo just have a special week celebrating the critical undervalued Because I Said So?”

The answer is yes, great observation. But I pose to you a retort, how could I not mark the 10th anniversary of the seminal Moore-Keaton vehicle or earn good karma from the Grammys in pursuit of my EGOT?

Game, set, match – welcome to Grammy Gold: Golden Little Pill (you’ll never guess who convinced me to start celebrating the Grammys!).

A decade of saying so

A decade of saying so, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

When I caught up with Loz last year to celebrate the majesty of the Gilmore Girls revival, we got to talking about her most underrated movie, the egregiously Oscar snubbed Because I Said So.

Coincidentally, this Thursday marks the tenth anniversary of its release and it got me thinking how long it had been since I caught up with the cast, in addition to how someone – anyone! – needed to give that cinematic masterpiece the celebration it deserves.

So sit back, buckle in and get ready to party like it’s 2007.

Why? Because I said so!

*Boom, tish*

Ladies and gentleman, this is mambo number five.

Ok, I’ll stop.

Coyote not-so-ugly

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

In light of the Commander in Queef’s inauguration over the weekend, I decided that I should be moderately thankful that I live in Australia and decided to invite over Adam Garcia to help my celebrate Australia Day in style. (Despite the fact Australia Day is offensive and divisive).

I first met Ads in the late ‘90s via my dear friend Steph Fry on the set of Wilde. Even early in his acting career, Ads could be a bit of a diva and demanded a stand-in / body-double for when we couldn’t be bothered to be on set.

Given I had a passing resemblance, loved to be naked and i’m narcissistic enough to want to bang someone that (at a stretch I can pretend) looks the same as me, I took the job and eventually he took me, and vice versa.

Anyway, our relationship fizzled out when his career did and we lost contact until he started judging Australian Dancing with the Stars and we reconnected.

What do I make that is patriotic enough for the pride of Australia?

Our supreme return

Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

We’re baaaaaaa-aaaaccckkk!

Yes, it is the moment no one has been waiting for – we’re making our triumphant return to the blogosphere for yet another year of famous fetes, Survivor soirees and unbridled sexual innuendo.

Now normally I spend the holiday period travelling the hottest celebrity destinations with a selection of my closest friends, however 2016 finished as only 2016 could and took three of my dear friends away from me – George Michael (we met in a public toilet in the ‘80s), Carrie and Debs. As such, my break consisted of sitting three back-to-back shivas before I opted to journey to New Zealand to complete a hybrid of Wild and the Lord of the Rings.

Because I obviously needed to find myself and deliver my ring.

I then ventured into wine country and opted to start a winery, am hella busy planting vines etc. as we speak, so this week is going to run a wee bit differently.

You see, with the death of Debs following so closely after Caz, I got spooked that I would soon lose another aging matriarch, so took a break from my shivas to check-in on my dear friend Diana Ross a few weeks ago.

What did I make to ensure her health would sustain her into 2017 and well beyond (instead of the great beyond, obviously)? Check back Thursday … you know, for a little throwback.

12 Days of Chrismukkah

12 Days of Chrismukkah, Guess Who's Coming to Dinner

Finally the moment you’ve all been waiting for is here – the grand unveiling of the Fame Hungry Annual Christmas Celebration! While it is hard to top the festive grandeur of Survivor and the Kardashians, I am confident that our 12 Days of Chrismukkah will be the best ever.

It is well known that I played an integral part in the development of The O.C. and was responsible for the casting of my closest friends, however you may not be aware that I am the one that invented Chrismukkah.

In addition to post-its.

Now I know – because I invented it – that Chrismukkah is usually celebrated as eight days of presents, followed by one day of many presents … but there is no way I can play favourites with this cast, so we’re going with the more Chrisma- 12 days, ok?

So get ready California, here I come. Right where Chrismukkah is from.

It’s gonna be a California, California – 12 Days of Chrismukaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah.
