Liza and David - On the rocks

2003_7_gestmin.jpg

And they seemed so happy! Sigh, another storybook romance turned separation. Poor Liza. Man, is this what happens when Michael Jackson is best man and Elizabeth Taylor is matron of honor? And Cindy Adams is one of the bridesmaids? And David Hasselhoff and Gene Simmons are on the invite list? Maybe Gothamist is wrong in thinking that those things actually line up to summon the devil, Ninth Gate style. Maybe there was just too much passion in that marriage.

Liza Minnelli and David Gest Separate

Coverage of the Minnelli-Gest wedding last year, including an interview with Liza and David about that freaky kiss.

Maybe Michael Jackson and David Gest have the same plastic surgeons?

And what is that on Michael's hand?

A friend of mine is pretty talented Flame artist, who has done a lot of design work for MTV and such. He did all the 'skin fix' work on the Liza David wedding. Most freelance artists charge about $1500 an hour for this. He reported that they had Michael Jackson on speaker phone the entire time and that there was a lot of complaining about ailments. And whenever Liza would leave the room for a 'bathroom break', David would insist that my friend should stop working on Liza's face and work on his.
Also, did you know Thomas Pynchon recored a guest spot voice for the Simpson's this week? Check out ohdog.org for details.

re: Pynchon, that's fascinating news, but possibly the biggest non sequitur EVER.

And, I know what a flamer is, but what, exactly, is a Flame Artist? And even if these frightening people paid $1500/hr for 'skin fix,' it still wasn't enough.

MY theory/gratuitous plug: Liza's co-op board was behind the couple's breakup.

The page layout almost makes it looks like Blair Hornstine was the fifth guest at this freakazoid fest. If Liza and David had a kid -- I know, impossible -- but if they had, it'd probably be a dead ringer for Hornstine.

can you throw up a disclaimer or something on that photo? it's not the greatest thing to look at first thing in the morning.

That picture of them kissing conjures memories of Michael Jackson and Lisa Marie Presley at the MTV Movie Awards. Oh, I'll be having nightmares tonight...

They're creepy and they're kooky,
Mysterious and spooky,
They're all together ooky,
The Addams Family.

Their house is a museum
Where people come to see 'em
They really are a scream
The Addams Family.
