“A NIGHT AT THE OPERA…Featuring Vashtie aka Miss Sweet Peppa.
Vashtie was one of the sweetest and best assistants I ever had, she has since graduated to becoming a successful video director, clothing designer and is now about to become a movie star. I am very proud of this one.
Here she is on the set at a Baptist church in Bed Sty, on the shooting of “A night at the opera” where she is being courted by Actor/Director Nemo Librizzi.”
funny: GAY CAKE
my inner ELLEN wants to eat this whole cake. who am i kidding? my inner fat ass wants to eat this whole cake, because it doesn’t believe in discrimination.
life. why do you do this to me!
life: OSCAR & RAUL HOSTING “NO HABLA INGLES” with RADIO ROSE
after a whole day indoors behind a giant computer screen (which is very common for me these days), i ventured out at midnight to visit the homies. OSCAR & RAUL were hosting the party, “NO HABLA INGLES”.
*SHAYNE & RAUL – HOOD BY AIR
*DAHLIA and MOI
*SCOTT said, “bad mon fuh life” while eating this candy.
*RADIO ROSE + SURE SHOT
*OSCAR first saw me and asked, “V, why you so tall?”. he looked down and almost stopped himself because he already knew…”BURBERRY?” to which i responded “PRORSUM boo boo!”. then we chuckled. i love those boots. they’re more comfortable than my self loathing.
*DJ SCHOOLBOY teaching lessons on the decks
random:”DONALD IN MATHMAGIC LAND” (1959)
i first saw this as a kid and was blown away by everything i was picking up that this cartoon was laying down. i realize now it must have been a little creepy for kids, nonetheless…extremely fascinating and educational! if only all school subjects could have correlating animations.
i promise this will not be a waste of your time.
