April 22, 2015 Kellie Freeze

Five colorful and courageous people sacrifice everything to be able to share their love of dance with the world. In Oxygen’s newest docuseries, The Prancing Elites Project, five gay, black, men try to compete in the competitive world of Southern Drill Teams. Majorette-style dancing isn’t the bobby socks and pom poms you may imagine; this is highly athletic dance popular at many Historically Black Colleges and Universities — especially in the American South. This dance style combines elements of jazz, contemporary, crunking, and African tribal dance in high voltage performances and competitions. The specialized style of dance that the Prancing […]

Who’s Got A Hangover? Spring Break Week on Dancing With the Stars, Season 20, Episode 6

April 20, 2015 Kellie Freeze

For some college students, Spring Break is a time of R&R after the stress of college midterms; but for others, it’s an annual right of passage where bikini and tank top-clad coeds make a host of ill-advised decisions that (hopefully) won’t follow them for the rest of their lives. Thankfully, this week’s theme on DWTS is a nod to the music and vibe of the beach, and not the drunken orgies that we see on MTV and the news. And in Dancing With The Stars, Season 20, Episode 6, in addition dancing to a spring break-inspired song, the remaining contestants will […]

Madness in Monaco: The Royals Episode 6

April 19, 2015 Kellie Freeze

When you’re a bored royal, what do you do other than have loads of sex, wear scrumptious clothes and do obscene quantities of drugs? Why you pack that crap up and do it in Monaco for the weekend! And this weekend, that’s what our favorite Brits are doing. And huzzah! my favorite lesser princess, Maribel and Penelope are back! Let the garish costuming commence! I think that pretty much everything Penelope says is, “That doesn’t feel entirely unpleasant.” She said it during her anal bleaching and she said it when she stuffed 8balls up her bum. Liam has invited […]

Recap: Little Women: NY Episode 4 “Mardi Gras Melee”

April 15, 2015 Kellie Freeze

Can we all agree that last week’s burlesque performance was a sexy disaster? Not because of what happened onstage — that was fine and fierce — but because of the negativity afterwards. Jordanna got an opportunity to showcase her burlesque troop and invited her friends to join her in a sultry number, and Jazmin got her first taste of the spotlight, but Dawn’s vocal disapproval ruined the entire night. Dawn is extremely outspoken against little people exploiting their height and performing as elves and leprechauns, but I don’t understand why she is such a hater of little people simply performing […]

Recap: The Royals, Episode 5

April 15, 2015 Kellie Freeze

I spent the weekend in glorious San Francisco, so I’m just catching up on the TV I missed… If you had a friend whose closet size rivaled the fashion closet at Runway magazine in The Devil Wears Prada, would you hate her? Only if she wasn’t my size! Ophelia has so many gasp-inducing clothing options that it must be so fun for the show’s wardrobe department to dress her. She gets to be avant garde, sexy, trashy, dirty and classy at any given moment, and often, she get to be more than one choice at a time! The royal ball […]

Go Behind The Cameras Of Botched, Season 2.

April 14, 2015 Kellie Freeze

Tonight, E! heads back under the knife in the return of its groundbreaking reconstructive plastic surgery series, Botched. In each episode, Dr. Terry Dubrow and Dr. Paul Nassif transform bodies and lives by correcting plastic surgery-gone-bad or devastating physical situations that have rendered the patients all but shut-ins. The creation of any kind of reality programming requires the work of a small army of talented entertainment professionals, and I was curious about the specific challenges of shooting a show as graphic and intimate as Botched. The camera men and women who film the consults and surgeries do so without he […]
