On the left, a wee homage to the Tony Awards–which, for you non-gays, is the annual celebration of Broadway theatre that takes place a week from Sunday, on June 15. It’s awwwwwfully gay. And so’s the clip. (Also kinda hot, if you’re turned on by the thought of a fully clothed Nathan Lane squirming in a room full of mostly naked, glabrous twinkletoes.)
On the right, the newest single from Beyonce’s younger sister, Solange. (Them girls can’t stand a surname.) I’m kinda digging on the beat–it’s spare and minimal and fairly “now”–but the video concept is a little obvious, a little “haven’t we seen this before?”, a little presumptuous, even. Like, girl, don’t even try to imply you’re in the same boat with Miss Ross and NonaHendryx. Anyway, the full album drops in August. Let’s hope for her sake and for the sake of her mother’s retirement fund it fares better than her first pop foray. Yeesh.
