The cast of Will & Grace Posted by Picasa


'Will & Grace' Finale Spoiler!

Some secrets are just too juicy to be kept to yourself. For example…last night, yours truly went to CBS Studio Center’s Stage 17, in Studio City, to see a live taping of the hit NBC comedy Will & Grace! But that’s not the best part. Insert drum roll here…the taping I went to see was a section of the hour-long series finale – which will be airing May 18!!! That’s right kids…your nocturnal buddy – Mr. Nightlife – knows some of the finale’s secrets and I’m about to blab them all to you! So if you don’t want me to spoil the surprise…stop reading NOW! >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>> >>>>>> >>>> >> > Here’s the set up…as you already know Grace is pregnant by her former husband - who’s now gotten married to another woman. In the show prior to the finale we find out that Will breaks up with his lover (GASP), so he can help Grace bring up the baby. So here’s where the scene I saw taped begins…. its fifteen years in the future and an older, toupee wearing Will and an equally older, fat ass Grace have been living in the same apartment (in misery, of course) bringing up their son – who doesn’t listen to a word they say. Surprise, surprise. After a fight about his writing the words “For a great time call Will Truman” on the wall of the boys’ bathroom, at school, he ignores their usual insulting banter at each other and walks out on them. A few seconds later, Karen walks in looking as gorgeous and young as ever. She’s now off the booze and head-over-heels in love with a rather scary looking Rosario who’s now become a full-fledged leather jacket wearing, beer chugging, bull dyke! Extremely funny lesbian jokes ensue. Then an extremely tan, George Hamilton looking, Jack enters wearing a bridal veil and proudly announces that he’s finally gotten married! Thanks to then President Chelsea Clinton who just signed the gay marriage bill into law! Who does he marry, you ask? You sure you want to know? Well…it’s none other than Kevin Bacon – who’s now madly in love with his former stalker! Unfortunately that’s all I know. Those smartass producers only shot one segment of the finale last night. (DAMN!) So…it looks like all of us will just have to tune in on May 18th to see what happens next.

Stripping The Night Away

Calling all straight guys...and lovers of Burlesque!
The "hottest ticket in town" is back and even hotter!
You see the folks over at Avalon Hollywood have re-ignited the fire and turned up the heat for one of LA's best Burlesque shows!
Harlottique (that's the name of this strip-o-fun show) has been steaming up Thursday nights for the past couple of weeks and will continue to do so through April 6.
The LA Times has called it the "Best New Burlesque Show" and UPN News has deemed it "the hottest ticket." So don't miss out on the talk of the town and get your tickets today! Doors open 8pm. 21 and over.
Oh yeah...and the show features American Idol's Kimberly Caldwell. From Idol to Burlesque...hmmmm....that's SO Hollywood. Wink, wink.


Pre-Gay Wedding Makeover?

Are you gay and planning to get hitched to your honey anytime soon?
Well, if you are....the folks over at Queer Eye are looking to cast a gay male couple who wants a makeover before saying "I Do." Here are the details...you both need to live within a 25-mile radius of Manhattan and be available for taping during May or June. If that's you, email your engagement/love story along with photos and contact information to Leah, no later than April 4th. Good luck and congrats on snagging a guy! I should be so lucky. LOL.


Burning Toast With Teri

Calling all Desperate Housewives fans!
On May 2nd DH star Teri Hatcher will be signing copies of her new book Burnt Toast and Other Philosophies of Life at the Book Soup store in West Hollywood!

George Michael Exposed!

Think you know all there is to know about former pop superstar George Michael? I mean...besides that unfortunate incident in a Beverly Hills public bathroom and his recent drug arrest in London.
Well then you'll be happy to know that on Wednesday, May 3rd, at 8pm, the AFI's 5th Annual Music Documentary Series will present George Michael: A Different Story at the Arclight Cinema!
In this special documentary Georgie boy himself acts as a tour guide through his own complicated past. For the first time he talks about his mother, who supported him for many years.
In one of the film's most moving moments we see his reunion 20 years later with one-time Wham partner, Andrew Ridgeley.
The film also captures Michael's poignant performance at the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert, while his partner Anselmo was dying of AIDS. And last but not least, Michael talks about the scandal that almost cost him his stardom, when he was charged with lewd behavior in a Beverly Hills' restroom in 1999. Now did you really think he was going to leave that little (no pun intended) incident out of the "tell all" film?
He also talks candidly about his meteoric rise to fame and the adverse effects of his fan's appetite for the persona he had created. In short...the star and the person leave no questions unanswered.
Following the screening a hosted reception will follow the screening at a nearby Hollywood hot spot!
To order advance tickets for this "must-see" picture, click here, call 323.464.4226 or visit ArcLight Hollywood's box office at 6360 W Sunset Blvd. (at Ivar).
See ya there!

Catfights and Caviar

Time to get nasty again!
It looks like those nasty Carrington's are at it again. That's right....actors John Forsythe (Blake), Linda Evans (Krystal), Joan Collins (Alexis) - plus a bevy of former Dynasty cast members - will reunite, once again, for a one-hour 25th Anniversary retrospective called Dynasty Reunion: Catfights and Caviar (love that title) airing this May on CBS!
The Carrington clan - which will include Pamela Sue Martin (the original Fallon) , Al Corley (the original Steven), Gordon Thompson (Adam) and Catherine Oxenberg (Amanda) - will shoot the special early next month, at the Filoli Mansion in Northern California - which was the estate used in the series opening credits.
Other cast members scheduled to appear include Pamela Bellwood (who played crazy Claudia) and Emma Samms (who took over the role of Fallon after Pamela Sue left).
No word yet on whether my favorite primetime soap opera bitch - Stephanie Beacham (who played Alexis' cousin, Sable Colby on both Dynasty and The Colbys) - will be joining in the fun. But even if she isn't I'm going to have a fun time seeing all that big hair, giant shoulder pads, flashy jewelry and fabulous catfights once again!

The 'Adventure' Continues

As most of you already know, yours truly isn't a huge fan of remakes.

Even without good old Shelley Winters doing the backstroke.

It's Tito Time!

I love it when my friends visit me in La La Land.
For example - this Friday night, my good buddy Tito Puente Jr will be in LA to do a show in Century City and I can't wait to see him!
You see...we're almost like brothers. His dad, legendary bandleader Tito Puente, and my mom, Latin film star/radio talk show hostess Gilda Miros, were very close friends for many, many years. And when he and I finally met, in Miami, (after we were all grown up) we also became very close friends. It's almost as if we had picked up where our parent's left off.
Anyway...this Friday night, I'll be heading over to Century Club to see my bro bring his sizzling latino sound to the west coast for one night only!
If you're smart you'll down come and join me.

Hola JR!

I had no idea that there were any of us Puerto Ricans in Texas. Well it seems that's all about to change. The folks over at The Insider report that our very own "Jenny From The Block" - Jennifer Lopez might be joining the cast of Dallas as JR Ewing's alcoholic wife Sue Ellen!
I kid you not. Look....

It looks like a cast for the big-screen version of "Dallas" is close to being corralled. According to Daily Variety, John Travolta is considering the role of oil tycoon J.R. Ewing, Jennifer Lopez has been offered the part of Sue Ellen Ewing, Luke Wilson is in negotiations to play Bobby Ewing and Shirley Maclaine may play family matriarch Miss Ellie Ewing. The updated take on the hit '80s TV series will be directed by Robert Luketic ('Monster-in-Law') with production likely to start in October.

I can just see it now...Miss Honey, decked to the nines, stumbling into Southfork, drunk as a skunk, and screaming from the top of her lungs "Boricua in the house!" He,he,he.
You go girl!

Mr. Nightlife's Favorite LA Bartender

Ever since I moved to LA, a year ago, I haven't found a bartender that...well...simply put - rocks my nocturnal world.
You know the type...one that not only serves a fabulous drink (love a bartender with a heavy hand), but has an out-of-this-world personality and is hotter than hell as well.
Well...my search has finally come to an end! Meet Rusty Joiner, from I-Candy Lounge in West Hollywood...AKA Mr. Nightlife's favorite LA bartender!
Some of you may recognize him from his sexy Abercrombie & Fitch ads, or from the pages of Men's Fitness, or from his appearances on TV show's like ER, CSI-Miami, Dr. Vegas and Spin City or from his recent co-starring role in the feature film Dodgeball with funny man Ben Stiller.
I had the pleasure of meeting my new buddy Rusty last friday night and it was love at first sip! So to speak. He made me a killer Cosmo that I'm still dreaming about.
Yes...he has hypnotic blue eyes, a body to die for, and a killer smile...LOVE THAT SMILE.....but the thing that really puts him over the top (for me) is that he's one of the nicest people you'd ever want meet. For real. Imagine looking like that in Hollywood and not having an attitude to speak of? It's simply amazing! Too bad he's straight...he'd make the perfect husband for you-know-who. Just kidding.
Oh...yeah...before I forget...he also has a new workout DVD out in stores now too. To purchase a copy of your very own click here.
Or if you'd prefer to see him in the flesh... come on down to I-Candy (any Friday or Saturday night) and watch him reflex those amazing muscles while he's making one of his special, extra dry, vodka Martinis just for little ol' me. ;-)
See ya there!


Sex And The Gay Rock Star

Here's some titillating news....sexy, former "Sex And The City" siren, Kim Cattrall is finally coming back to the boob tube! Hooray!
ABC has signed her to star in their new show "Him and Us," which is about a British rocker and his manager. Kim will play the manager (a sassy one I'm sure) and Anthony Stewart Head will play the aging gay rock star. Gay rock star??? Who's ever heard of such a thing???
Oh yeah....the project is exec produced by Sir Elton John. Wink, wink.

Gayvn Awards Posted by Picasa


And The Winner Is....

Award season is in full swing in LaLa Land. Everywhere you turn there's some award ceremony going on. I'm not kidding. Every facet of the entertainment industry, you can think of, has one - including porn! Which is the case tonight as the 8th Annual GAYVN Awards takes place at Rage Nightclub, in West Hollywood. That's right...some of the biggest gay adult stars and industry movers and shakers will gather together in WEHO to honor those who've excelled in their particular field - whether that be in front of the camera or behind it (no pun intended). Here's a short list of who's up for what.... Best Actor Rod Barry - Thirst (Adonis Pictures) Brad Benton - Dirty Little Sins (Red Devil Entertainment) Pierre Fitch - Through the Woods (Falcon Studios) Johnny Hazzard - Wrong Side of the Tracks 1-2 (Rascal Video) Junito - Wet Dreamz of Genie (Liquid Dreamz) Michael Lucas - Dangerous Liaisons (Lucas Entertainment) Gus Mattox - Dangerous Liaisons (Lucas Entertainment) Brad Patton - Beyond Perfect (Buckshot Productions) Bryce Pierce - 110° in Tucson (Titan Media) Colby Taylor - Getting It in the End (Jocks Studios) Best Director Jett Blakk - Dirty Little Sins (Red Devil Entertainment) Jerry Douglas - Beyond Perfect (Buckshot Productions) Joe Gage - 110° in Tucson (Titan Media) Lucas Kazan - Decameron (Lucas Kazan Productions) Chi Chi LaRue - Wrong Side of the Tracks 1-2 (Rascal Video) Michael Lucas - Dangerous Liaisons (Lucas Entertainment) Brian Mills - Cirque Noir (Titan Media) Steven Scarborough - The Missing (Hot House Entertainment) Thor Stephans - The Paramedics (All Worlds) Chris Ward - Arabesque (Raging Stallion Studios) Kristofer Weston - LeatherBound (Buckshot Productions) Michael Zen - Thirst (Adonis Pictures) Best Newcomer Benjamin Bradley Tober Brandt Jake Deckard Alex Fuerte Derrick Hanson Roman Heart Huessein Andy Kirra Pete Ross Francois Sagat Jason Tiya Chris Wide For the entire list of awards and nominees click here.

However, one thing's for sure...in the end someone will leave the stage being on top (so to speak) and a shit load of people won't. That's Hollywood.


The Bitch Is Back

Say it isn't so! Our friends over at Tonight are reporting that a Spice Girl is going to play super-bitch Alexis Carrington in the big screen version of Dynasty!

Victoria Beckham is reportedly set to star in the big screen remake of '80s soap Dynasty. The former Spice Girl is being lined up to play super-bitch Alexis - a role made famous by Joan Collins - in the Hollywood version of the classic show. The brunette beauty, who is married to football ace David Beckham, is said to have won the role after her A-list pals Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes recommended her to 'Dynasty' creator Aaron Spelling. Film bosses reportedly think the slender singer has the "British style and sass" needed for the film, which is about a wealthy Denver oil family. An insider told Britain's Daily Star newspaper: "The casting crew wanted someone British, glamorous and also slightly aloof." Elizabeth Hurley was suggested, but at 40 she's slightly too old for the role."'Dukes of Hazzard' beauty Jessica Simpson and actor Bruce Willis have also been hotly-tipped to star in the new film.

Jessica Simpson too! God help us all!

Cast Your Vote!

Just because the 2006 Academy Awards have been handed out doesn't mean awards season is over. Case in point...I just got this note from my extremely talented nocturnal friend DJ Peter Rauhofer asking all his admirers to vote for his label Star 69 Records as Best U.S. Dance Label for the International Dance Music Awards.

Dear Tony, Star 69 Records is nominated for BEST U.S. DANCE LABEL at this year's IDMAs (International Dance Music Awards) to be held at the Winter Music Conference on Sunday, March 26th in Miami at the Wyndham Resort. Derek Scott Graves from Star 69 Records is also nominated for BEST RECORD LABEL PROMOTER IN-HOUSE! Vote by clicking here by March 17th Thank you for your support ! Peter Rauhofer

Good Luck Peter and Derek! You've certainly got my vote.


On The Red Carpet

Here are some photos that my good friend and former roommate, Scott Dill (who works for CBS News), took on the red carpet - at the Oscar's - this year. Enjoy.

Matt Dillon talks it up on the press line

Screen legend, Jane Russell. Not exactly the way we remember her.

What the hell happened to Lorenzo Llamas' face? Scary.

Keira Knightly still looks studding...even with that weird look on her face.

Naomi Watts rules the red carpet!

Tom Cruise Wins!

I LOVE that Philip Seymour Hoffman won Best Actor for his brilliant performance in Capote, at tonight's Oscar ceremony, but the thing yours truly is REALLY thrilled about is that crazy Tom Cruise won a Razzie Award for being the most tiresome tabloid target of the year! That's right...the Razzies, an Academy Awards spoof mocking the worst of 2005, had nominated Cruise for worst actor for "War of the Worlds," however he lost that honor to Rob Schneider for "Deuce Bigalow: European Gigolo" (surprise, surprise). But not to worry...he won for something even worse...namely his completely whacked out public spectacle of his (so called) romance with that poor girl who's having his baby Katie Holmes.

Razzies founder, John Wilson, said it best, "As guarded, not necessarily secretive, but as private about his personal life as he used to be, for him to suddenly propose in front of reporters on the Eiffel Tower and jump up and down like the monkey in 'Curious George' on Oprah Winfrey's couch, there truly is some problem there."

Hopefully this will help Tom get a grip and he'll let poor Katie out of her silly (you marry me, have my baby and I make you a bigger star than Nicole) agreement with him. OH puh-leaze...as if you didn't suspect that was the case. Wink, wink.


Saturday, March 04, 2006

Dude...Oscar who?

If all this Oscar hoopla isn't quite your thing...then join my good buddy Joe Rogan - yeah, he's the guy from Fear Factor - for something a little...different.
It seems this Sunday at 8PM he'll be hosting the first annual Medicinal Marijuana Benefit at the world famous Comedy Store on Sunset Blvd.
I'm not kidding. As his evite said "this is your chance to show your support for the sacred plant!" Only in Hollywood...
