Nothing says “Brazil” like winter sports, so Canadian bronze-medal Olympic skater Toller Cranston adds some ruffle sleeves to his black tights and lets loose on “I Go to Rio.” He also demonstrates a simple, ingenious technique for successful lip-synching: Keep that camera (or audience) as far away from your face as possible!

Puppets are just drag you wear on your hand, and the Muppet Show was one of the nuttiest, most sophisticated shows on television in the 70s, despite (or because of?) its children’s-TV roots. Here Debbie Harry of Blondie appears to have the time of her life, confronted by Jim Henson’s psychedelic creations at every turn […]

England’s Dusty Springfield, nee Mary O’Brien, was born upon this day in 1939–she’d be 68 today if she hadn’t tragically died of cancer in 1999. “Wishin’ and Hopin’” and “Son of a Preacher Man” are her two best-known hits in the […]

My plans for the evening of 9/11/01 were to attend a west Chelsea art opening by transsexual singing sensation Amanda Lear. I didn’t make it–but she didn’t cancel! Amanda was the muse of Spanish artist Salvador Dali and is […]
