Alice Faye & Betty Grable - "The Sheik of Araby"
Long before Hugh Hefner conceived his rabbit hutch, Billy Gilbert ruled the roost as "The Sheik of Araby". Girls galore are draped ...
A movie that Betty Grable and Jack Lemmon were in together?
I just saw a quick scene on TCM of a movie that looked like it had both Betty Grable and Jack Lemmon in it. I am a big Betty Grable fan and have several of her movies but am not sure which movie this is. Anyone have any idea?
Three for the show is the movie.
It was sadly Betty Grable's last musicial.
I'm a huge fan of hers too,she had it all voice dancing and looks.Those legs mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
Thrown for a Loop in St. Louis' Delmar neighborhood
I loaded up my Pontiac with Berry CDs to catch America’s spark plug in his monthly gig at the Duck Room in the Blueberry Hill nightclub.
Many of Berry’s smash hits are about travel, big backseats and windshield dreams: “Promised Land,” “Down the Road” and “No Particular Place to Go.” In 1961, Berry did a bottom-heavy cover of “Route 66” at Chicago’s Chess Records. One of his lesser-known nuggets is “All Aboard,” whose chugging rhythms embrace Berry’s unparalleled wordplay:
... Whistle at Lorain, San-Dusky to Toledo, let her roll, hello Indiana by Ohio
South Bend, Gary, change trains in Chicago.
Charleyette, Bloomington, Decatur, make a right flank
Springfield, St. Louis on the muddy banks ...
No one makes right flanks in Decatur anymore.
I mentioned moving around America to Berry in a rare interview before his December residency at the Duck Room, named after his trademark duck walk.
“My dad was a carpenter,” Berry said. “When I was 8, I carried his tools for him as he drove around St. Louis. I got the feeling I could go anywhere.”

Christina Aguilera Is Washed Up
Christina Aguilera Is Washed Up
Here’s Christina Aguilera ringing in the New Year at Tao nightclub. We haven’t seen much Xtina, ever since she had kids, but this new look of hers isn’t working for me. Her funbags look deflated and the rest of her body looks like it belong to a 35 year old crack whore. I don’t even want to ask how much? See more pictures now!!!

The last time I had pictures of Molly Sims on the site she was doing some weird sh#t with her puppies and I remember thinking that that was the end of her hotness. Well, I’m glad that she’s decided to prove me wrong by prancing around and shaking her ass in her little bikini. How thoughtful. See more pictures now!!!

Lindsay Lohan Swimsuit Pictures
If you ask me, there’s not much in this mixed up world more enjoyable than to watch a hot chick try on swimsuits in a sexy pair of heels. Here’s Lindsay Lohan and her delicious chesticles doing just that. I have to say that I’m impressed, if I were there I’d pay for the damn thing myself. After I came to, of course, because chances are all my blood would have quickly rushed from my head causing me to pass out like a gay guy at a Jonas Brothers concert See more pictures now!!!

Kate Hudson And Her Milky White Thighs!!
I don’t really know what Kate Hudson is doing in these pictures, but I’m glad she decided to do it in a short little skirt. I know it kinda looks like a sixty year old hippy’s sundress, but I like her sexy legs so who gives a shit. Although, a little sun wouldn’t hurt. I’m still annoyed that she hasn’t done something about her boobs, or lack there of. This is Hollywood baby, everybody does it. I wonder how many times she’s heard that before.

Amber Rose Is Out Of This World
Here’s Kanye West’s girlfriend/thing Amber Rose out in West Hollywood. I’m not going to lie, if Aliens touched down on Earth and they looked like this, I’d probably hit it, but for now the unknown scares me. Who am I kidding, I’d still hit that, as long as it doesn’t have teeth on its privates.
