Before Stanley Tucci was fashion forward in The Devil Wears Prada, he was dancing for joy wearing just a T-Shirt and Levi’s 501 Jeans. He looks the same now as he did when he was 24 in that 1985 ad.
Ann Morgan Guilbert passed away yesterday at the age of 87 from cancer according to The Hollywood Reporter. In 1961, she came on to our television screens in a little show called The Dick Van Dyke Show and stayed on there almost up until her death. She played Rob and Laura Petrie’s goofy but lovable neighbor Millie. After that beloved comedy she guest starred on several shows and in a lot of commercials, until landing the role of Grandma Yetta on The Nanny 1993. She stole every scene she was in on the show. She continued to steal even more scenes up until this year when she guest starred on Life in Pieces.
Today, let’s keep her funny spirit alive by watching her in one of her many roles.
Skin Wars has been a huge success for GSN and tonight at 10p RuPual hosts the show’s first spinoff Skin Wars: Fresh Paint. Each week 6 artists, who have never done body painting, will compete for $10,000. Artists like illustrators, cake designers and sign painters to name a few.
For the first round, they will be broken into teams of two. Those teams will be paired up with a contestant from one of the past seasons of Skin Wars. During that round the mentors can help the contestants any way they want. Then when the two hours are up, the mentors have to choose which team member goes on to the second round. For that round, the mentors can only help contestants with instructions, they cannot help them paint. When that round is over the Judges will decide which two contestants move on to the final round. This time the mentors only get 15 minutes with them at the beginning and the halfway mark to help them out. The final two are pretty much on their own. When they are done, the judges decide who goes home with the $10,000 prize.
I love Skin Wars because it is amazing to see what those body painters can do. Skin Wars: Fresh Paint in ways is even cooler because you get to see these professionally artists grow as they work their magic on a new type of canvas for them. Just because they are great at one form of art, doesn’t mean they will be just as great at this. But for the most they are and their work is stunning to look at.
Tune in tonight and every Wednesday to watch art come to life on the human body.
