Who says Bravo rots your brain?
Watching Andy Cohen last night I learned a new word,
“Farkakte”
Feel free to mosey on over to Yinglish to learn for yourself what it means but I can save you the trouble just by showing you the following:
Here is the Queen of Soul at Rockefeller Center for the lighting of the Christmas tree. Me thinks the Queen should be dethroned for this outfit.
As if the full length fur wasn't bad enough, the mink head bandage/head band was overkill.
(pun intended)
I love you Aretha, but on the freeway of love this outfit is just plain roadkill.
BTW, PETA's not unknown to the meaning of farkakte either.
Farkakte (Yid., פֿאַרקאַקטע) – an adjective, meaning 'screwed up' or 'a bad idea'
ReplyDeleteAretha isn't exactly the most wisely fashionable famous person out there - remember the inaugural hat? http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/alltherage/2009/01/inaugural-hat-t.html
ReplyDeleteAlthough, this "cowardly lion with sparkly dress on" trumps the hat, no doubt.
I think there ought to be an exemption for extraordinarily talented people. I would tolerate Aretha wearing a bikini onstage just for the joy of hearing her sing. Pamela Anderson does not qualify for the exemption, however.

A bikini might be pushing it but I agree about the joy of hearing her sing.
