Happy Halloween Darlings,
|
|
In the blink of an eye we reach the end of October, which means that holiday party season starts soon. Look out for invitations, VIP discounts, and other goodies in your inbox over the next few months. Triple thanks to those helpful Splendorians who signed up their friends for FFP. And, by the way, in case you didn't know ... it's pronounced Friday Forplay. We tried to be subtle by making the title three words instead of two. Enjoy.

QUEER EYE CRUSH
We've made no bones about our unbridled love for Ted, the food and wine guy, but we are genuinely worried that our crush may be taken away from us! Reports are rampant that the cast could be replaced by another group of sassy stylettes. It's been rumored that the the Fab 5 has been pulling Linda Evangelista ("I don't get out of bed for less than $10,000 a day) one liners and has demanded a huge increase in salary. And while we think that these Splendora hombres are worth their weight in gold, their petulant behavior as of late is inexcusable. We heard that Kyan (the "jeuggge" master) was seen screeching at a reporter from InTouch Weekly (the juiciest gossip $1.99 can buy) to get out of the VIP area at an event. Monsieur Kyan should not be biting the hand that feeds him quite yet. Allegedly, the company that owns the rights to the show placed an ad on Craigslist seeking "gay men 25-40 years old with terrific personalities as well as a great sense of personal style for a TV series building on the success of 'Queer Eye.' " Or maybe it's just a ploy to give this popular boy group an attitude makeover.
