Real ‘Dirty’ June 1, 2006
Posted by mrnightlife in Industry News, Reality TV, TV Shows.4 comments
These days it seems like they'll make anything into a reality show.
For example…WE: Women's Entertainment and Lionsgate TV have teamed up to produce eight episodes of Dirty Dancing: Living the Dream, based on the 1987 film, says Variety.
This dance contest will be hosted by Paul Judd, and will team up inexperienced female dancers with professional male dancers.
After whittling the original 30 women down to just one, the winner gets a featured role in the theatrical production of Dirty Dancing, the musical.
The WE program is set to debut in December.
One, Two, Cha-Cha-Cha…
Super ‘X’ Bike May 30, 2006
Posted by mrnightlife in Movies.add a comment
I just love going to the movies in Hollywood. Especially at the ultra glamorous Grauman's Chinese Theater on Hollywood Boulevard. Case in point, this past weekend, yours truly went to see the summer's newest blockbuster X-Men 3: The Last Stand at said movie palace.
Not only did I LOVE seeing this fantastic film in this beautifully restored historic theater, but as a special treat the suped up Harley that Cyclops (played by James Marsden) rode in the film was on display in the world-famous footprint laden forecourt for all to see!
The sexy and extremely stylish "X" branded V-Rod, with its powerful 115bhp Revolution V-twin engine, was not only cool as shit, but it definately made my head turn as I passed it going into the theater.
So if you're an X-Man fan, a Harley lover or both you HAVE to stop by the Chinese and check it out. Hopefully, it'll still be there.

Back In Business! May 27, 2006

Mr. Nightlife is Back!
Sorry about the disappearing act folks. I didn't mean to abruptly leave you guys like that. It was completely out of my control.
You see….those idiots over at Blogger lost all my blog files (talk about friggin frustrating)and after days and days of trying to get someone from their support staff to help me find them I decided to kick them to the curb and give Write Post a try.
Luckily, my buddy David recovered most of my previous posts (whew)!!!! However, due to how much material needs to be input, those will take some time to be added to the new archieves section. So if you don't find the article you're looking for, immediately, please come back in a few days and hopefully it'll be back up here for you to enjoy.
I know the new layout is a bit different than it was before and my fancy header is missing. Just give me a couple of days to work out all the little kinks on this new system and I'm sure things will eventually go back to normal.
Thanks for not giving up on me though. I know it's been a bit rough not being able to get your daily Mr Nightlife fix lately, but now that things are pretty much fixed on this end I promise to never to leave all my nocturnal friends high and dry again.
xoxo
Classic TV Theme Song May 27, 2006
Posted by mrnightlife in Music, TV Shows.add a comment
Here's a fun little TV ditty I'm sure most of you will remember.
"You take the good, you take the bad, you take them both and there you have….The Facts of Life."
You remember this show, right? Of course you do! It was that (not-so-funny) sitcom about four dykes-in-training…a-hem…I mean sweet and innocent school girls (Blair, Joe, Tootie and Natalie) living and working in a cozy dorm with their middle-aged, meddling, warden…I mean…kind caretaker Mrs. Garrett, at an elite all-girl boarding school, in upstate New York.
Doesn't ring a bell? Oh well…I'm sure the moment you hear the catchy theme song it'll all come back to you. Just click HERE and feel free to sing along. Believe me…even if you don't want to, you'll find it's pretty hard not to.
‘Sopranos’ star infiltrates “Pink Mafia” Hangout May 22, 2006

Actor Joseph R. Gannascoli, who plays the recently-outed “Vito” on HBO’s The Sopranos, is really having a gay old time with his character's newly realized sexuality.
As part of Gannascoli’s appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live, he visited gay hotspot The Abbey in West Hollywood to do some in-depth research. Here's a shot of him, on the right, interviewing Abbey owner David Cooley.
While there, he discovered that The Abbey is a favorite hangout for real-life members of the “Pink Mafia,” an affectionate term used to describe Hollywood's A-list gay power brokers.
I wonder what the gang at the Bada Bing! would think of that. Wink, wink.

Wondering what fab parties are going on in LA this Memorial Day weekend? Well…here's something special I thought you might enjoy.It's called Lattitude and it features the much anticipated (and long awaited) Los Angeles debut of D-Formation (Beatfreak Recordings, Madrid) at The Factory nightclub!
Resident sensation DJ De Leon will start the evening, prepping the crowd on the dancefloor for the tribal wizardry of D-Formation and DJ Eddie X. In the back room, there will be a rare performance by the legendary DJ Disciple along with Avalon Hollywood favorites David Tort and DJ Ruff, with an opening set by Finbarr Massi. Needless to say…it's bound to be an incredible night.
See you on the dancefloor!For more information click here.
Aquaman Sunk? May 19, 2006
Posted by mrnightlife in Industry News, TV Shows.add a comment
Have you seen the preview for the new Aquaman show yet? No? That's probably because, the other day, the new CW Network pulled it from their official website.
Even though it looks pretty damn good, the series (also known as Mercy Reef) was not included in their fall lineup for next year. Does that mean that this highly-anticipated Smallville spin-off has temporarily been put in dry dock or has it permanently been lost at sea?
We'll just have to hold our breath (yeah, right) and see.
Ride ‘Em Cowboy May 19, 2006
Posted by mrnightlife in Friends, Industry News, Movies.add a comment
Calling all 'Brokeback' fans! Guess what? There's another "cowboy does cowboy" flick coming your way.
That's right…it's called Cowboy Junction and it'll be playing at Laemmle's SUNSET 5 tonight (19th) and Saturday (20th) night at midnight!
How do I know this? Well, I was personally invited to see one of the screenings by the hunky star of the film – James Michael Bobby - himself! We met, this past week, while we were rehearsing for the indie film Eating Out 2. Not only is he extremely sweet and talented (he had me in stitches during rehearsals), but he's one sexy stud – as you can see in the photo on the left – that could seduce the pants right off you! I wish. LOL
So if you couldn't get enough of Heath and Jake and their cowboy love…then check out my buddy James in this sexy new tale of love on the range ! Yee-haw!
