    Favorite Male Actors Of All Time

    I was stunned to find this list posted on imdb.com. But bear in mind I think it was put up there by a single feisty human, and also "favorite" implies a personal like for someone as opposed to a definite feeling that they're masterfully talented.

    Who Should Be Barbra's Herbie In Gypsy?

    I love giving casting advice for free, especially when a movie like Barbra Streisand's Gypsy--as it will forever be known--seems to need it so badly. I won't dare to cast the title role, since an age-appropriate daughter for a 70-year-old would probably be Madonna--and while she'd be great as a str ... More >>

    How's This For A Happy Face?

    Whenever I see a TV camera approaching, my face lights up like a Halloween pumpkin and all the hanging skin inflates like a Thanksgiving Day float based on a long-running animated character. I basically become a holiday parade float of a giant, gay, papier-mâché suckerfish.

    Transgender And Drag At The Oscars! A Fabulous Pictorial!

    Weather-Appropriate Halloween Costume Ideas

    As the woman in the Pac-Man costume can attest, hypothermia causes paradoxical undressing.​Bad news, attention-starved women and vain men: That skimpy costume you've been planning for your big Halloween bash tonight isn't going to work in this weather.

    Barbra Streisand Movies: My Six Favorites

    ​Sorry, I'm leaving out the pretentious stuff and/or the stuff with one-word titles like Yentl or Nuts (though the former certainly had its merits). I'm even leaving out such worthy entries as The Way We Were and The Prince of Tides because they don't happen to be among my six favorites. I'm ... More >>

    Brace Yourselves for 'La Dolce Tootsie'!

    ​If you thought Dustin Hoffman was dazzling as a red-hot mama in Tootsie, just take a gander at my own boobalicious self and the sizzling possibilities such a film project would prompt, as sure as I'd fool people in a remake of The Crying Game. As you'll notice, Musto the film is "from the ma ... More >>
