A few more days till we return back to normal programing and caught up her at the Casa du Borghese, what with being gone since September 2nd! And that ugly, ugly word...Monday which means for me back to work also. Curses! But first, I huge thank you for all the lovely compliments of our anniversary post before leaving. Thank you again for stopping in all these years and for all this mayhem! Till we get our equilibrium back and to a sense of normalcy, if there is such a thing, may I present some legends for your enjoyment, and Casa du Borghese favorites...Carol Burnett, along with Eileen Farrell and Marilyn Horne. Take it away girls! A number after my own heart.
LIVE! LIVE! Life is a banquet, and some sorry sons of bitches are starving!
Nice. I don't remember seeing it before so it must be before my time.
ReplyDeletePatience above! How did Ms. Horne get there?
ReplyDeleteWelcome home! I know it's hard to go back to work, but I'm happy you're here. I've missed you somethin' awful.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
Welcome home!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back!!
ReplyDeleteDid you pop your cork for anyone while you were away?
ReplyDeleteI hope you didn't spill your gin when you read that.
🎶🎵 I pop my cork for every guy I see...🎶🎵🎶
Delete"How's about it, palsy?" Your favourite t-shirt. Jx
DeleteThe more I see of the Casa du Borghese garden the more I admire the tireless work of the gardener and designer.
ReplyDeleteWelcome home, Mads. We missed you!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Don't you wonder how they managed to decide, rehearse, and produce all the things they did every week? Classic! and takes true professionals to pull those off.
I remember seeing this show. It was one of my Mom's favorites way back when.
ReplyDeleteMads, honey, you need to work between vacation days. It breaks the monotony of livin' la vida loca! Growing up, I loved the Carol Burnett show, especially the musical numbers.
ReplyDeleteWelcome back and thank you for the fabulous video!
ReplyDeleteThat is a truly fabulous number - who would ever have thought that two esteemed opera divas like that would ever have sung on a brassy Cy Coleman number, rather than the Bellini, Verdi or Gluck they were more accustomed to?!
ReplyDeleteWelcome back - with a diva bang!! Jx
The full Mae West influence 😂😂😂😂😂 RULING!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhat episode of Drag Race did Bianca Del Rio, Darienne Lake, and Ben dela Creme perform Big Spender?
ReplyDeleteLeave it you to return with a big splash! I well remember that clip...and what a great tribute to Bob Mackie.
ReplyDeleteThe clip is BRILLIANT!!! Bob Mackie was a GENIUS! Love the arrangement of this number too! Great vocals!
ReplyDeleteSooooooo great and so many fond memories of her wonderful show! I think it's time for these kinds of shows to return...it sure beats reality show crap, where talent is not found.
ReplyDeleteWELCOME BACK!
Was this a favourite bit in your drag performances, Maddie? I can definitely picture you in one of those outfits, LOL!
ReplyDeleteGlad to see you returning to local programming, and hope you enjoyed your time away.
ReplyDeleteMmmm-mmmm
ReplyDeleteThey copied my style !
Afterall there’s only one Diamond Lil.
Mae West 💋
Hey gurl heyyy!
ReplyDeleteGlad you’re back!
We need pics!
XOXO
