Well don't leave us waiting. Is Bruce Leroy still pretty???????

Lol!  Yes, very!  I almost peed myself when I turned the corner and saw him standing there.  I turned to my friend and said, "Oh my gawd, it's motherfucking Taimak!"  And she said, "who?" And then I asked her what the hell it was she was doing during the 80s.....Anyway, he was super nice and friendly, even as I was geeking out and telling him that The Last Dragon is in my top 3 favorite movies.  And then he posed with me for about 5 pictures and told me I was very cool and kissed me on the cheek!  I was this close to asking him about Vanity and if he keeps in touch with her now that she's saved, sober, and bit off her rocker, but I thought it wouldn't be a good idea.  Lol!

Ha! I was wondering if he was still fine. Hollywood better leave that movie alone. I wish you asked about Vanity.  I remember seeing a Youtube video of her years ago on some Christian TV show, and she looked matronly. She looked like her former self's mother.  I was shocked.  Glad she cleaned herself up, but the pendulum really swung in the opposite direction. 

I still turn up to Nasty Girl, tho. Sorry, Sister Vanity.

A couple months ago, I read Nikki Sixx's biography, "The Heroin Diaries", which had a lot of Vanity in it, as she and Nikki were engaged during the time period that the book covers.  The book had a really cool structure; since it was actual diary entries, the co-writer of the book reached out to all the people in Nikki's life at the time and would have them read the entry and then allow them to comment on what they remembered about the day, event, incident, etc.  All of those comments ended up in the book.  Vanity's comments were all insane!  She would skirt around what ever the subject was and start talking about god and the devil and other stuff in a very nonsensical manner that was so difficult to follow, partly because I was dying laughing at the cuckoo bananas of it all.  Also, every other person interviewed for the book spoke about how awful and crazy she was during that time (1985-1987), which was right about the time The Last Dragon was made.

For real.  I will boycott any remake, especially one that stars Rhiannah.  They need to leave all 80s movies alone!

There can never be a good remake of The Last Dragon!!! And, off subject, but on Vanity - have you noticed the people that did the worse shit catch the most religion. Jus' sayin'  I guess I might be in that category some. <screw face>

Never! I remember there was a rumor about Samuel L. Jackson playing Sho'Nuff. I mean, I like SLJ and all, but no.  There can be only one Sho'Nuff, and Julius Carry (RIP) was it.

 

If he were still alive, I think he'd fit in on Power.  This is some menacing shit right here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_wEb39SuXI

 

And yes, it's always the hyper religious people that you have to keep your good eye on. There's nothing wrong with being spiritual, but I guess the ones with the sketchy pasts feel as if they have to go all the way in to make up for it.
