PFNTS Mini Challenge 8-Make a woman's wear set inspired by your favorite celebrity.
Good grief. This took me ages to complete. And I'll probably tweak it for another million hours. I should probably put this much tender love and care into my main challenge entry...eh?
So...I want to blab.STORY TIME.
I decided to write a list of all the male celebrities I dig that would make cool woman's outfits the second my grubby eyes saw the challenge blurb:
Kurt Cobain-Decided he was too easy, predictable. And I've prob. indirectly have already done this.
Joey Ramone-Not quite as cliche, but for me, yes, yes it is. And still to easy. But Joey is my main man.
Perry Ferrel-He was a maybe for a bit. But I really wasn't feelin' woman's wear out of the dude.
Billy Corgan-The man wears dresses enough as it is.
Rod Serling- [Dingdingdingding!]I discovered all sorts of things about him. Like his last name does not have a 'T' in it.
Johnny Rotten-Whatever
Sid V-Double whater
Marilyn Manson-This could've been entertaining, and I think was the 3rd runner up to Rod. But I just got too into this one.
David Johansen-Dolls Days or as Buster Poindexter? So went my thought process. 2nd runner up...
The Lead Singer of Live [BEST RAT TAIL EVER]-Relized I was just being stupid at that point.
Zeus-And it went from there...
Hades
and all the rest of those crazy Greeks
ummm
Iggy Pop-Meh
Jello Biafra-Nah.
Henry Rollins-Psh.
Edgar Degas-Oooh, potential.
But I knew deep down I'd already made my decision ages ago.
I'll remind you again. ROD SERLING IS THE SHIZ. He's my idol of some sort. Has been for longer than the others, though I don't obsess over the dude quite as regularly. The Twlight Zone is soaked into my brain. It is the reason I loathe/fear plastic surgery so much. It is the reason I watch the X-Files so much.
And just check out those eyebrows!
So this is my homage to Mr. Rod, who died all to young, much like my main man Joey R, at age 50.
I have never seen him in anything other than a suit, so I took the idea of that in the form of a blazer and dress and hot hot pumps. I found another picture of him so classically smoking a cig in one hand and drinking coffee in the other, so that had to be included. And I tried to make it not boring. I'm really practicing that again.
Now here's some fun I found on some blog during my research:
"You are now entering a dimension of alcohol and intoxication.
- Chug a beer every time Rod Serling appears.
- Sip a beer anytime a character smokes a cigarette.
- Chug a beer anytime the story takes place in the future.
- Take a shot if William Shatner is in an episode.
- Chug a beer if the episode was shot on video as opposed to film.
- Sip a beer if the apocalypse happens.
- Sip a beer if an episode involves airplane travel.
- Sip a beer if there is time travel.
- Chug a beer when any military figure is shown.
- Take a shot if Burgess Meredeth is in an episode.
- Chug a beer if there is an ironic twist.
- Sip a beer if there is a fictional government in place.
- Take a shot any time aliens are seen or mentioned.
- Chug a beer if a human is inappropriately suspected of being an alien.
- Shot of whiskey when some one drinks whiskey.
- Chug a beer if a monster is seen.
- Chug a beer if the devil appears and tricks someone.
- Sip a beer when robots are seen.
- Chug a beer if a person is not a person.
- Sip a beer whenever a planet that isn’t earth is mentioned.
- Chug a beer when children are evil.
- Chug a beer people refuse to believe the main character that knows the truth.
- Take a shot every time the theme music is heard.
With these rules you are sure to be drunk by the end of nearly any episode. Just be careful on New Years and Fourth of July when there are 3-day marathons!"
