1500 Posts Gala

Welcome blogivision viewers to GLAM’s 1500th post! It’s a G0-Go Gala & I’m MC Boogapony Holly.!

Tonight’s theme is GLAM’s tagline, “Luxuriating in the Arts”. You will be treated to poetry, music, dancing, painting, comedy, graffiti and lots of cool fashion, as I work my way through costume changes.

My fab outfit above is inspired by the poem below, which in turn was inspired by a different outfit. That said outfit was inspired by a fusion of 2 groovy personalities. One was real, and the other imagined. Try and guess the answer to this riddle! Outfit, more clues & answer are at the end!

Okay! Time to liven things up! Time to“Pony On Down” Graffiti Alley to the vintage harmonies of “The Beach Boys”!

That was exhilarating and exhausting. Good thing I have this stunning Graffiti Lux art wall that looks like stained glass to lean on. Which brings us to the art part of our show.

Below is a mural, rendered in a realism style, of Charlie Chaplin and a vaudeville company in 1914. Charlie stayed at the now decrepit hotel it is painted on. Learn more about this mural on a podcast featuring moi, on Tea Toast and Trivia!

However, art has been created in many styles over time. Right now I’m thinking of the successful artist of the 60’s, Andy Warhol. He began the Pop Art movement. Crazy what he did with soup cans.

Not to be forgotten is Op Art. However, to be totally original, I’m starting the Oops Art Movement, as imagined above!

 Now, for the first time on any stage anywhere, to present GLAM’s commemorative gift to all of you, is my kid sister. Take it away Boogalu LuLu!

So, umm, like before I tell you what the gift is, I got this song to play for you. Don’t let the treacle voice of 26 year old Bella Poarch fool you! The  message is killer.

Okay, so like, you’re all getting a free Boogapony Holly Paper Doll download. Don’t worry, the paper doll won’t kill you! Although you might get a paper cut, so there is that.

 ….. And thank you Boogalu LuLu! That was … a song!

Now it’s time for more clues and the  RIDDLE ANSWER!

Here I am in the originally inspired fusion outfit, that inspired Holly’s poem. Take a good look! There’s 2 personalities in the styling.

More Clues – can you guess who the 2 personalities are?

Before the curtain closes on GLAM’s Go-Go Gala, I’m going to Go-Go my way through some surrealistic art to the sounds of  Corey Hart singing.

Thank you all for being here to help me celebrate, dear friends! Now, I leave you with a parting question and a final fashion tip:

QUESTION

If a multitude of graffiti tags are all piled upon each other in 1 spot, does that create a work of art in its own right?

FASHION TIP

Go-Go Boots go with everything!
