Agent Lover's Ultimate Pizza Party https://www.agentlover.com/blog Fri, 23 Feb 2024 05:47:23 +0000 en-US hourly 1 44082623 Visiting the ‘Clueless’ Filming Locations https://www.agentlover.com/blog/2015/07/22/visiting-the-clueless-filming-locations/ https://www.agentlover.com/blog/2015/07/22/visiting-the-clueless-filming-locations/#comments Wed, 22 Jul 2015 18:04:01 +0000 http://www.agentlover.com/blog/?p=12820 Screen Shot 2015-07-22 at 2.08.47 AM

Circus

I stan so hard for Clueless. I never fully really realized it until now, during its 20th anniversary. Obviously there are a lot of movies that are near and dear to my heart, but Clueless had a very special impact on me. It came out in theaters when I was 15. I remember going to Edwards Cinema in Camarillo to watch it and falling SO deep in love. I distinctly recall the moment where  No Doubt’s “Just a Girl” plays during a scene and whispering to my friend, “We have to find out what band that is!” Now, this was the nineties and we weren’t able to watch trailers or clips at our whim or just Google image a screencap of a movie. There was no way to deconstruct shit like outfits and scenes and all of that. How the hell did we find out about anything? I read a lot of Spin, Rolling Stone, Entertainment Weekly, Seventeen, Jane and the long-gone Premiere magazine. I obsessively watched MTV and VH1 and Entertainment tonight. It was all about recording everything on tape with a timer and playing it over and over until we had it all memorized. To really get into a film, we’d have see repeated viewings in the theater or wait until it hit VHS a million months later.

clueless

For some reason, the outfit that stood out to me the most was Cher’s driving test outfit. She throws a fit because she can’t find her “white collarless shirt from Fred Segal!!” I was really into baby blue back then (very nineties) and decided to replicate the outfit as best as I could. This was my first foray into LA PASIÓN that is pretty much played out in the 150+ outfit replications for my film style series at Rookie. Anyway, I grew up in Oxnard. We didn’t have some boojie mall. Yes, there was a Contempo Casuals, Judy’s, Wet Seal, a RED ZONE but my shit was always the hole-in-the-wall stores: places called “Fashion Max” and “Fashion Gal” that were a few notches below Forever 21. I found a lot of treasures in those shops over the years. At one of them, I was actually able to find a sheer button down top (without the ruffles) which I wore with a baby blue sweater vest and over an a-line argyle mini skirt. Cher wears silver Mary Janes, but I went for patent leather white leprechaun shoes from Wet Seal. To this day, I can’t believe I don’t have a photo of it. The closest I have is this photo from my brother’s wedding, which had two parts of the outfit. Those leprechaun shoes were sick!!!

IMG_5846

I took every chance I could get to write about it: Rookie, Hello Giggles and the crème de la crème, my interview with Mona May on Refinery29 where we styled the characters as how they would dress if Clueless was made today. Spoiler alert: Jeremy Scott’s Barbie collection for Moschino SS15 was SO TOTALLY AMBER. I first met Mona May about five years ago at Lenora Claire’s Bettie Page Heaven Bound show. I was wearing a hat with a spider on it that I had painted gold and she came up to me and asked if she could take a photo. I didn’t realize it was Mona May until later and freaked out. One of my heroes was asking to take a picture of MY HAT! ::flips hair:: She has designed the costumes for not only Clueless but also other faves like Romy and Michelle, The House Bunny and The Wedding Singer. It was a complete joy to talk with Mona May and to get the DEEP CUTS of the film’s wardrobe aspect. This is what she told me about my favorite ensemble:

“Cher wore a tuxedo shirt made out of chiffon, an argyle mini skirt, knee socks, silver Mary Janes and a silver crop top. The whole thing was about her having the perfect shirt for this test and she couldn’t find it. But it was a pivotal moment because it’s also when she finally realizes what’s going on—that she’s in love with Josh—so it was an important outfit for the movie. I think it needed to be a non-color. If it were bright, it would be wrong and if it was too dark it wouldn’t have been right either. It had to have the right kind of emotion. When we put it on her, it felt like the right thing for both me and Amy.” 

A few weeks ago, I realized I wanted to celebrate the film’s anniversary by visiting the filming locations. I needed a partner-in-crime for this epic journey (from the Valley to Eagle Rock to Beverly Hills, LAWD!), so I enlisted the boo, Karlito, to accompany me. It was a true vision quest. Over two days, we hit up close to ten different locations. Of course, the photo above is of Circus Liquor, which is the location of the scene where Cher gets held up and is forced to lie down on her Alaïa. SO RUDE!

They filmed some of “Bronson Alcott High” at Grant High School in the Valley. I found out that Amy Heckerling named the school that as an homage to her then-boyf Bronson Pinchot aka BALKI BARTOKOMOUS!!!!

So much love to all these awesome guides on los internets that helped me figure out where to go!

Bonne Bell Is Going Out of Business And I Will Riot https://www.agentlover.com/blog/2015/02/01/bonne-bell-is-going-out-of-business-and-i-will-riot/ https://www.agentlover.com/blog/2015/02/01/bonne-bell-is-going-out-of-business-and-i-will-riot/#comments Mon, 02 Feb 2015 07:26:06 +0000 http://www.agentlover.com/blog/?p=11754 I got a horrifying text the other day.

FullSizeRender

‘Tis a sad, sad day, mi amigos. I write about beauty. I’ve tried tons of lip balms, lip moisturizers, lip scrubs, organically handmade from a nun’s tears-type of products, but whenever my luscious pucker needs a smear of something to make them soft, I still turn to that gawddamn Dr. Pepper lip chap.

Dr Pepper Lip Smacker

That Dr. Pep lip balm is so near and dear to mi corazon. I’ve used it for more than a decade and it reminds me of Brittany Murphy because she used to use it too (via an episode of MTV’s Diary.) I probably don’t have to riot TOO MUCH actually, because apparently another company is taking over their products so it’s not like the Lip Smackers are going the way of the dodo. I’m sure we won’t notice any difference. It definitely won’t be like the time when we all heard Polaroid was going out of business so I bought 30 packs of film (still have ten packs unused, who wants to come over and model 4 me)…or the time we heard Betsey Johnson was going out of business so I pulled over, called my BFF and we cried to each other over the phone. And now what, I’m literally staring at a Betsey Johnson-designed Kleenex box. They never REALLY go away, do they? Well, maybe Orbitz soft drinks and Crystal Pepsi.

90’s Hair Icons: Poison Ivy (1992) https://www.agentlover.com/blog/2012/06/13/90s-hair-icons-poison-ivy-1992/ https://www.agentlover.com/blog/2012/06/13/90s-hair-icons-poison-ivy-1992/#comments Wed, 13 Jun 2012 07:38:16 +0000 http://www.agentlover.com/blog/?p=10203

OH YAS. That’s right my dudes. Finally, POISON IVY!!!!! I’ve talked about my love for big, beautiful, 90’s hair before, so it was only a mere matter of time for us to explore that particular adoration even more. Enter the 1992 masterpiece, Poison Ivy. First of all, look at that poster on the left. I’m sorry, but don’t you think I should take a picture like that and put it on a business card? Whose faces would be undulating in my luxurious hair though? John Stamos, Justin Bieber, and Kathy Bates? Emmanuel Lewis, Charlton Heston, and the maid from Will and Grace? Or maybe just me, me, me and a Doritos Locos Taco?! I will NEVER be able to decide.

When Poison Ivy came out, Drew Barrymore was only seventeen. She had released her autobiography, Little Girl Lost, a couple of years prior and was in full-fledged, rebellious teen mode. This was also a few years before she became the iconic, still-rebellious-yet-sassy Saint Drew, which, as I’ve said before, is how we lovingly refer to her here in the barracks of Agent Lover. SIDEBAR: ~~CONGRATULATIONS POP CHAMPAGNE~~ for Drew’s recent wedding and bun in the oven! I still remember an old  interview from the late 90’s/early 00’s where she talked about her boyfriend’s (who was Luke Wilson at the time) brown shoes like they were “camels she’d trek across any desert to follow.” OH DREW U ROMANTICA. She’s always been just a nice girl looking for love. AREN’T WE ALL? SIDEBAR OTRA VEZ: Do you like how I can remember old Drew B. articles word from word but can’t remember the names of people I knew before 2006? MEAN BUT TRUE…

Anyway, we meet Ivy swinging from a rope, all wild hair, reckless, and wonderful. I mean, just peep that airbrushed jacket lookin’ straight from the county fair. INCREDIBLE. Someday I will have to get a painting commissioned of  this exact screencap. Or maybe just an airbrushed jacket of her wearing this airbrushed jacket?!

Alas, for every crazy troublemaker, we need some some sort of balance to her character. A YIN TO HER YANG. Here comes Darlene from Roseanne starring in the best gif I have made this week.

~~ LIVIN’ LIFE SO WILD AND FREE~~~

Finally the two meet in the principal’s office. Darlene/Sara/Sylvie is giving Ivy the up close and personal lurkdown. She notices her SEXY THIGH TATTOO…

Ivy is like “It’s totally faux” and peels it off her milky thigh like a Fruit Roll-Up.

She then weasels her way into a carpool with Sylvie and her dad, played by Picket Fences’ Tom Skerritt.

UGHGHHHHHH

DARLENE I C DAT PINK MANSION BEHIND YOU

Eventually, Ivy charms her way into the Cooper household as well as into Sylvie’s sick mom’s (played by OG Charlie’s Angel, Cheryl Ladd) designer closet.

Better make sure the door is closed before you apply your Abreva, girl. TOM SKURRT IS A-LURKIN’

I bet you guys weren’t aware of my cameo in the movie as an annoyed maid who is sick of these crazy rich people’s hijinks.

OBV I HAVE SEEN IT ALL IN THAT HOUSE. I wish they had given my character a spinoff sequel.

OKAY. ::slams down the phone:: WHOSE LEG IS THIS?!?! First of all that doesn’t look like the Fruit Roll-Up tattoo. IT LOOKS REAL UNDER ALL THAT FUR. And we don’t see Drew going natural in this movie…I feel like for some weird reason they thought it was a good idea to get a close-up of this fly, and ended up filming it an old biker bar. NO OFFENSE TO ANYONE IN THE WORLD!!! I am just saying I think this is Drew’s thigh’s stuntman, OK…

You know what I’m going to say here. “I wish this was me tanning.” (BTW I am so annoyed that Birchbox sent me fake tan jelly this month. How ’bout you send me a plane ticket to a tropical locale instead, thanks.)

Here comes Ol’ Boy drinking his O.J., just lurkin’ again like Gargamel.

He comes over to Ivy and ends up knocking her NEW BOOTZ off the balcony like the clumsy ass butterfingers he is. I swear….

“Those cost a hundred and fifty bucks.”

Annnnnnd here is the MOST nerd chills scene of the movie IMHO…

A flirtatious cash money tug-o-war betwixt Drew and Tom Skurrt. WHYYYYYYYY

I HATE IT! I just don’t believe in the attraction here. Even Robe Lowe as that creep Drew Peterson in Lifetime’s UNTOUCHABLE was sexier.

As you can expect, all kinds of shit goes down once Drew manages to seduce Ol’ Boy. Even though she is PSYCHOTICA, I feel like Drew gave a certain VULNERABILITY to the character of Ivy that I think is hard to do with these kinds of roles (I usually get super annoyed at these evil chicks.) Now let’s just drool a little over how hot she is in this movie.

We also can’t forget about Sylvie’s amazing hairdo.

And WHY were there so many gratuitous shots of her infected Yin yang  tattoo? Alright, the symbolism is quite clear, but in between gagging from this and the Tom Skerritt sex scenes, I honestly felt my eyeballs barf one too many times.

FRIENDS 4 EVA

Mad Crushin’ On Richard Simmons https://www.agentlover.com/blog/2011/05/24/mad-crushin-on-richard-simmons/ https://www.agentlover.com/blog/2011/05/24/mad-crushin-on-richard-simmons/#comments Tue, 24 May 2011 21:05:58 +0000 http://www.agentlover.com/blog/?p=6845

If Sweatin’ to the Oldies with famed fitness guru Richard Simmons has always been a dream of yours, you can attend one of his personally-taught exercise classes at the Slimmons Studio in Beverly Hills and make that wish come true! But it’s not just oldies you’ll get to work out to. Each class has a different theme, ranging from Kiss to Madonna versus Gaga and Richard usually has an outfit to match! Every time I’ve been to Slimmons, I have an amazing time and leave with with his kind and inspiring words echoing in my head. If you have the chance to attend, YOU MUST! But for now… the awesome Richard Simmons gives us advice on making workouts more fun and staying motivated to reach your goals, whatever they may be!

How did you decide to make your life’s work all about eating healthy and exercising?

After I lost weight and learned to exercise I knew in my heart it would be my life’s work to help others who suffer from a weight problem. I was 200 pounds in the 8th grade and 268 in high school. I never ever exercised in my life until I came to Los Angeles in the early 70’s. and now for the last 37 years I have been a teacher. It is what makes me tick…….makes me happy. I wake up in the morning and I can’t wait to attack the day and be the best that I can be. That ……..is what I teach.

You inspire so many people around the world. Who are some people that inspire you?

I am very inspired by all the people I have met on my journey. I am inspired by people who have turned their lives around, who lost weight and moved on in their life. I am inspired when i see people who can hardly stand for five minutes of my class and now do the whole class. And over these almost 4 decades I have seen miracles. and those miracles drive me to work harder and help more people.

There’s no doubt that the classes at your Beverly Hills studio should be experienced in person, but for people that are too far away to attend, what advice can you give them to make their workouts more fun?

I learned a long time ago that a workout had to be fun. I mean let’s face it we have fun putting weight on, why not have fun taking it off? If you are bored in your workouts then here are some suggestions: Search the web and find some fun DVDs that you can do at home, then build up a library of them and do one a day. Go look at some gyms or exercise studios. Look at their list of classes. There are so many classes new classes offered today and you should try them out to see which ones fit your fancy.

The anecdotes that you share during class always inspire me on a very relatable level. Can you share one with my readers that might help them when they are going through the woes and throes of everyday life and find it hard to keep focused?

After class I do like to inspire people. So many people seem to live in the past. They can’t forget what happened back there and it is hard to have a healthy present and future when all you can think about is the sadness of the past. You have to make peace with the past and look for the rainbows in the present. You must surround yourself with positive people who make you feel good. Those friends are the true rainbows in your life.

What are your top five songs from the 90’s to work out to?

I am a living jukebox and I listen to music every single day of my life. My top 5 songs from the 90’s that I like to workout to are:
“I’m Too Sexy” – Right Said Fred
“Livin’ La Vida Loca” – Ricky Martin
“Genie In A Bottle” – Christina Aguilera
“Nobody’s Supposed To Be Here” – Deborah Cox
“Believe” – Cher

Where do you get the ideas for the costumes you wear in class?

I grew up in New Orleans, Louisiana.  I was in costumes for Halloween and for the days of Mardi Gras. My parents were singers and dancers. I guess crystals and feathers are in my veins. You see, I like to weave a spell around my students at Slimmons. I don’t want them to think that they are working out. I love dressing up for everyone and making them laugh. The theme of the class dictates the costume. In two weeks* I am doing a class of the legendary voices of the 21st century ………………the warriors of music and of course I am coming as a………….gladiator. Chest plates and all. LOL gold leaves in my hair…………..well you get the picture.

And lastly, what advice would you give me since I want to be an instructor someday? Will you take me under your wing and let me be your apprentice? 🙂

If you want to be a fitness instructor what you need to do is take a lot of classes at different places. See the style of other teachers then get certified to become a teacher. but you have to have a passion for it. And before you can become a good instructor you must walk the walk and talk the talk of a healthy person. You must be a good example to your students and you must always let your students know how wonderful they are. That is what I try to do.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Thank you Richard!! We love you! For more information on Richard and the Slimmons Studio schedule, take a look here (classes are only $12!) You can also follow Richard on Twitter and Facebook!

*Sorry I couldn’t get this post up in time before that class! But sign up for his newsletter so you can find out what themes are coming up!

Dear Menz With Special Guest TNUC https://www.agentlover.com/blog/2009/11/02/dear-menz-with-special-guest-tnuc/ https://www.agentlover.com/blog/2009/11/02/dear-menz-with-special-guest-tnuc/#comments Mon, 02 Nov 2009 21:18:22 +0000 http://www.agentlover.com/blog/?p=2425 dearmenztnuc

TNUC can best be described as a master of combining visual and aural stimulation…as well as an obscure 80’s film king, dream warrior, fellow pizza lover and a fan of Staymoist. Whenever I need any of those things, which is all the time, I visit his blog. Bookmark that boner immediately. TNUC also partners up with my favorite dj duo/ past Dear Menz interviewees Futurecop! quite often for collaborations including the video for upcoming single “1988 Girls.” Be on the lookout for that as well as more videos and the TNUC BONER OF THE MONTH CLUB! Sounds like a Male marie if you ask me. How could I not ask this Casanova to be our latest Dear Menz guest?

tnuc2

Out of the bevy of ass-kicking 80’s babes, which one would you want at your side helping you fight crime?

Vanity. Hands down. If you’re one of the few and one of the proud to catch her in Never too Young to Die, you already know the facts. When she’s not strapped to the back of your motor-bike, ready to fight post-nuke vigilantes, then she’s probably strapped to your Johnson, or playing a game of cat and mouse with you until the tension can’t bear anymore, and the two of you are forced to take it to the bedroom, where the moment you start fornicating, saxophone immediately starts playing. What a woman.

Your readers voted on who was more bonerable: Kelly Kapowski or Kelly Bundy, which is ultimately a good girl versus bad girl battle. Kapowski won! Why do you think that? Doesn’t everyone know naughty girls need love too?

Kapowski winning is no surprise. She’s the more accessible one, and the one you would have ZERO worries about bringing home to Mom. Don’t get me wrong, she’s delicious, but I’m a 345% supporter of the Buxom-Bundy. I guess Kapowski could make for a good peeping tom session, hanging from a tree limb with binoculars, peeking in on a Bayside Friday night slumber party. Another plus to the Bundy camp is the obvious connection to legend Al Bundy. I don’t know why people aren’t picking up on this. Drinking beers, reminiscing about high school football and delving into the art of the shoe business…c’mon now.

tnuc1

Which Goonie do you identify with most and why?

That’s difficult. My immediate answer that came to mind is Mouth (Corey Feldman). But I suppose for me, that connection is only based on his moves and style. You know, the members only jacket, purple reign t-shirt and the bouncing, flopping hair. But the more I think about it, TNUC could associate with Sloth on so many levels. Sloth was chained in that dingy basement for so many years and TNUC was chained in the dreaded 90’s for so many years. So we could really relate to one another and get intellectual. Then again I could always go the route of Mikey (Sean Astin). He’s more of the dreamer, the chaser, the true Goonie. My final answer? How about THE STYLE OF “MOUTH”, THE HEART OF “SLOTH” AND THE SOUL OF “MIKEY”…..that’s it.

It is one of my lifetime goals to DO IT in a DeLorean. I’m sure this is an everyday humdrum activity for a stud like thee TNUC. What should I be prepared for when I finally acquire this vehicle for my “autoerotic” fantasies?

Greatest question ever. This one truly digs deep in the loins of TNUC. OK, so you’ve acquired the DeLorean, the hard parts over. Next, make sure your metallic beast is equipped with an automatic fog dispenser. That’s first and foremost on the check-list. Lucky for me, mine just happened to come with it. The dealer asked me if I wanted the model with the Flux Capacitor or the model with the Fog Dispenser, so naturally I went with the right decision. So anyways, here’s an example of my first sexual episode involving a DeLorean. Do you remember the part in Karate Kid, where Daniel the Dingus and his Mom drive the station-wagon to go pick up Ali (Elisabeth Shue) for the date at Golf N’ Stuff? Well, there’s a part when Daniel and his Mother are driving where the camera pans a little to the left. You can barely see it, but if you look verrrry closely you can see a DeLorean. Well, that very night TNUC just happned to be cruising around the Valley. This chug-a-lug station-wagon wouldn’t get out of my way, so I swerved around it, leaving the station-wagon in a cloud of fog. Something caught my attention. This big house on a hill was beaming with camera-crews, crowds of people, film equipment and at the very top, near the doorway, a very exquisite looking Elisabeth Shue standing alone. Immediately I pulled into the driveway. People started starting with looks of shock and sheer terror, did a mysterious DeLorean really just arrive on-set and could possibly be crashing their party? I didn’t care. My focus was on Elisabeth. She needed to experience the DeLorean and needed to experience the TNUC. I then used the gull-wing opening door feature and fog started pouring out of the vehicle in large amounts. The fog got so intense, people started to freak out and others were being lost in its thick mass. I knew this was my only chance to make a run for it and get the girl! Before I could step out of the car, Elisabeth was already in it. She had this hallucinogenic, almost possessed look on her face, as if the fog had put her into some sort of trance. All I know is, I was happy. She told me she’d never felt like this before and that she wanted to be taken. That was enough information for me. I immediately clocked in at 88 miles per hour, and the last thing anyone saw that night was a license plate that read the letters T N U C, hammering out of the driveway and into the night. The rest is history.

I would find out months later that all this was captured on camera, but the director burned it and swore never to speak on the happenings of that night ever again. I’d like to take a moment right now to target the two people who I’m on the hunt for. The director and that little worm Daniel LaRusso. You two better pray Johnny Lawrence and I don’t find you on our Yamaha Dirt-Bikes. We’re currently on the prowl, searching empty karate dojos and California beaches. If you’re found, your legs are about to be swept to death! This is just a mere example of what can happen with a DeLorean on your hands.

You dressed as Uncle Jesse aka my #1 ladyboner John Stamos (Staymoist) for Halloween one year. What has the Staymoist taught you about women? HAS IT WORKED? (how dare I ask)

Well, it goes without saying that Stamos has changed my life and continues to do so. For years I channeled him with any sexual exploits I got myself into. For me, if you’re trying to impress the ladies, one obvious move is riding your Harley into the sunset, leather jacket bound, hair blowing in the wind. When doing this, you cannot forget to pack plenty of Mousse. Use plenty of mousse and don’t be afraid to throw some Aqua-Net in there as well. I’ve heard some guys carry condoms in their wallets, well so do I, but the difference is that when you tear open the rubber in my wallet, the only thing inside is a nice travel size squirt of Mousse! For dire situations.

Stamos has also influenced me in terms of style. You can’t go wrong with a daily get-up of a leather jacket, teal shirt and a pair of snakeskin boots. Chicks also faint at the sight of a dangling earring in the left ear, either a cross or a feather. The vampire clan in The Lost Boys also carried this trend. The foolish crew on Full House wouldn’t let poor Stamos rock an earring on set, like the time they refused to film him riding over the Golden Gate bridge with a naked Becky straddling him and his bike. I hope this information was useful. Good luck kids of America, may your Stamos continue to soar!

And of course since it is Spooky Awareness Month, I have to ask you which scream queen gives you a supernatural boner?

My boner gets ultra supernatural whenever Sheri Moon Zombi hits the screen. She may not have too many classics or enough filmography under her belt, but who cares. I could have said Jamie Lee Curtis or Linda Blair, but c’mon, we’re talking about BONERS here! Sheri Moon for sure. Boner Jams all night.

JOHN STAMOS AKA JOHN STAYMOIST! MY BELOVED GRECIAN HUNK!

So let’s rewind and let me break it down for you. Back in the day, when I was just a wee lil’ thang, watching Full House on TGIF, of course I was in love with Uncle Jesse! Eyes like the Caribbean Sea…the body of a Greek god…the bad boy rebelliousness yet underneath lay a heart of mutha fuckin’ gold…the HAIR. HAVE MERCY! It wasn’t until a particular episode of MTV’s House of Style where Dave Navarro had a framed picture of John Stamos surrounded by candles and feather boas that CAUGHT ON FIRE (Hilarious I DIE too bad the clip is nowhere to be found) did my brother and I decide we had to start building an altar dedicated to His Royal Stamosness.

First, stickers were made to make the whole world moist.

He was spread far and wide, in the States and overseas, and finally to Uncle Jesse’s place of origin.

yes.

Slowly the pieces of the puzzle for the Church of Stamos started to come together…including this actual recently acquired puzzle which has NOT been opened yet. I am saving that for a very special occasion.

Is that the Rockin’ Uncle Jesse Doll? ..and another Jesse’s family doll set behind it…complete with the twins?!!

This is a clip from a movie he did with VANITY called Never Too Young to Die. I seriously can’t watch this too much because well, you’ll see.

BTW, I JUST found out he has a Twitter so basically F U to anyone who knew this and didn’t tell me!! And what is with this tweet?? John (may I call you John :* )- did you ever get the stickers I sent to you via Perez Hilton in 2006?! OR WAS THAT A RUSE, PEREZ?!?

Jesse and The Rippers…I remember finding this video in 2005 and watching it over and OVER.

Sweet Dreams and Best Birthday Wishes Mr. Stamos (again, may I call you John or do you prefer HUNK OF MY DREAMS??)…it is my DESIRE TO MEET YOU. We can duet!! I promise I am a well-adjusted and bright young lady…who just owns a doll in your likeness….that’s ALL.

xoxo,

1980’s Movie Heroines – Earth Girls Are Easy https://www.agentlover.com/blog/2009/06/09/1980s-movie-heroines-earth-girls-are-easy/ https://www.agentlover.com/blog/2009/06/09/1980s-movie-heroines-earth-girls-are-easy/#comments Tue, 09 Jun 2009 20:37:58 +0000 http://www.agentlover.com/blog/?p=1550 Earth Girls Are Easy was and is still one of my favorite movies. It also just claimed the title of being my favorite movie to have screencapped ever! Each scene is an explosion of loud, 80’s color. I just want to jump in the screen like Mary Poppins and get my nails did!

Valley girl manicurist Valerie, played by my favorite actress slash professional archer Geena Davis, discovers her doctor boyfriend cheating on her, but finds romance in her own backyard when an alien spaceship crashes into her swimming pool. Out come three extraterrestrial hunks played by Damon Wayans, Jim Carrey and my ultimate childhood crush (before Fred Savage and Mikey from The Goonies): Jeff Goldblum (THE FLY!!!!!)

ketchupnmustard

They are completely covered in crayon-colored fur, but are still FINE AS FUCK, especially JG right here! Why am I so turned on?? Am I alone? (crickets..)

Geena Davis with her top ramen hairdo.

One of the best scenes is at the beauty salon, where Valerie’s BFF and sidekick Candy, played by the amazing Julie Brown (not the Downtown) helps Valerie sexify her look. Julie Brown is so awesome in this. Where are you Julie?

This is probably one of the first movies to pioneer the cinematic tradition and insta-gem that is a really good MAKEOVER MONTAGE SCENE. Synchronized dance and song are even better.

Candy also gives the alien hunks a good shave so they can pass as human. Wish I had that job. WUT

hunks

There are so many good details in the props and costume department for this movie. The phones! Quintessential 80’s lip phone, duck phone and even a GIANT phone for yours truly.

Give me these tights and shoes! Are those heart shoelace clips? Can we bring those back? I remember I used to have Minnie Mouse ones that attached to my L.A. Gears.

Gimme that heart bag Geena!

Another great scene is the appearance of Angelyne and her famous pink corvette. If you live in Southern California chances are you have seen her driving around.

And now…FASHION! This time I did a set focusing on monochromatic outfits inspired by each of the alien hunks. I love head-to-toe crazy color. With a ‘lil pizazz you can be a walking Crayola as well! Werk it gurl.
