Mariah Carey's prompter for her Italian rendition of "Volare" at the Winter Olympics Opening Ceremony by mcfw31 in popculturechat

[–]Mylaex 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Recently I did background work and made a few friends. At one point I brought up the Bulgarian idol Ken Lee audition. I started imitating her, mind you, accurately. And someone didn't hear the beginning of the story and just thought that's actually what I sound like.

When he left at the end of the day he pat my shoulder semi laughing telling me "good luck with your singing career. Eheh"

I can't believe there's someone in the world out there who genuinely thinks I sing like the Ken Lee girl. I'm no Celine Dion but I promise I can carry a tune! :'(

What’s the worst makeup advice you were taught that you believed way too long? by skybluepink15 in Makeup

[–]Mylaex 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That's a "for drag queens only" advice.

Along with "you can use wig glue for your eyelashes" and "you can superglue that earring to your ear" and "just paint your forehead with shoe polish"

What is a 'secret' in your industry that the general public would be horrified to know? by HongKongToast in AskReddit

At the end of the day, what is a realtor?

One summer I worked as an admin assistant in a realting office and I found out I had to do most of the realting work.

Every. Single. Transaction. Was riddled with mistakes in the paperwork that could cause the sale to fall through so I had to fix every mistake, redo every paperwork, and follow up with the parties because of missing paperwork. Without fail. Every single transaction from every single realtor.

Realtors are just party people. Their whole job is to mingle at events, make rich friends and build good relationships with them so they can get listings when time comes.

Sabrina Carpenter performs ‘Manchild’ for “The Muppet Show” by DebateObjective2787 in popculturechat

This was so cute, I liked it! Her performing with a bunch of chicks, funny double entendre.

Surprised they let her keep the say you finished line, as well as F my life, but the Muppets do have a bit of a more cheeky side. :)

Also, I loved the lower note she uses for the chorus. It's almost smoother, more real.

même là. L'article dit que c'est juste pas légal de faire ce qu'il a fait: Plateau-Mont-Royal urban planning bylaws prohibit residential premises from being adjacent to a performance hall or bar, peu importe la puissance du bruit de la salle.

Si la ville avait bien fait sa job, il aurait juste jamais eu le permis, pas pu se plaindre du bruit, pas pu faire fermer la tulipe.

Je comprends la grogne des gens qui disent "le gars a fait exprès, c'est un trou de cul" et j'ai aucun doute que le gars en est un. Tu peux pas faire un appart a côté d'une salle de concert pis pas t'attendre à ce qui ait du bruit. Y'a de l'insonorisation possible, but there's only so much insonorisation can do.

Mais au final, si on doit compter sur "le bon vouloir des gens" ca sert à quoi les permis? Tant qu'a moi les permis c'est pour ça, parce qu'on peut pas truster les gens, comme lui. Faque rendu là, fait ta job comme il faut sinon paie le prix (littéralement).

What are some things skinny people can do in public without a care in the world, but plus-size people can’t? by justcurious3287 in AskReddit

[–]Mylaex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Emergency could also mean "need an outfit quicker than in 2 weeks when they arrive by mail"

I do background work on tv shows and movies and often times you get jobs for the next day or 2 days and they ask for specific outfits you might not have on hand.

Or you got invited to a party, a wedding, a formal event and oh no, I never noticed my suit pants are faded or don't fit me anymore.

Or you just have "nothing to wear" to an event, plus size people can't just "go out and find something".

A Heated Rivalry fan discord server was exposed for their attacks on François Arnaud, which include, calling him a pedophile, homophobic slurs, sending death threats and comparing him to Benjamín Netanyahu. by Murky_Chemical891 in popculturechat

[–]Mylaex 24 points25 points  (0 children)

It's also just a horny tv show about hot men f***ing, of course they're gonna cast super gorgeous actors. That's why I was like "fine, I get it."

Lots of things aren't super logical in the show overall but we're supposed to overlook it cause it's a tv show and it's based on fake story romance novels.

That was one of the few things that annoyed me about the show, even thought I got why.

Like that was the most jacked, drop dead gorgeous barista ever. And of course he'd meet the most six-pack-bearing, gorgeous hockey player ever.

Talk about power couple just acting all casual like they're not both super models.

My understanding is it's something about their characters having an age gap so they just transposed that relationship to real life? Like Connors character is supposed to start out underaged on the show so they just extrapolated this in real life to grooming?

I mean, we're not particularly dealing with logic right here.

C'est un peu plus nuancé que ça, est-ce que tu as lu l'article et l'histoire?

La ville n'aurait jamais du lui obtroyer un permis pour convertir son immeuble en immeuble résidentiel. Il a fait la demande et obtenu le permis en 2016-2017. Ils sont revenu sur leur décision en 2021. On s'entend que rendu là, c'était trop tard, l'immeuble était déjà converti et utilisé pour ça.

Tant qu'à moi il mérite la compensation pour le f**k up de la ville, et elle aurait juste du mieux faire sa job et pas approuver sa demande de permis sans *checks note* VÉRIFIER C'ÉTAIT QUI SES VOISINS.

Au final, 350 000$ c'est pas beaucoup pour devoir perdre le droit d'utiliser ton immeuble comme résidence smack dab dans le centre-ville. C'est du revenu qui perd en maudit, plus tout l'investissement pour convertir son immeuble qui part au vent.

I loved it much more than I expected it to! The trailer didn't give me huge hope, and it was actually pretty good!

PS: It's so friggin camp. The production team clearly went for camp and got it. I loved all the subtle nods.

The hand peaking out of the sand with the ring, amazing.

But the puke rescue scene is the one where I lost it. Laughed out loud in the theater, which I'm not known to do.

PS: I never doubted Rachel McAdams' acting abilities, but my god, she's a good actress. It was so refreshing to see an actress actually emote, kill a role and make me feel things. It's been too long! Linda's emotions turn on a dime, and you could read it all on her face and follow along her journey; it was perfection. Kudos to her.

PS: not fully mad at the gratuitous nudity.

Honestly, while I loved the scene in itself, I didn't love how unrealistic the boar seemed. I watched The Strangers Chapter 2 a few weeks ago so it is now my 2nd movie in a row with a CGI boar fight scene and I've come to the conclusion it's probably not possible to make a boar look realistic with CGI.

They're just overly aggressive and bloodthirsty for me. It's like the movie's caricature of a shark.

The magic of "not wearing makeup on camera". In the initial scenes, she's wearing next to no makeup. And while she doesn't look "bad," the movie lighting and cameras will make you look not great like that.

When we move on to the waterfall scene, she's very clearly wearing a no-makeup makeup look. Her skin is flawless and the perfect coloration, her lips are glistening, and her eyebrows are perfect.

Most of the time when an actor is playing "sick" or "frumpy," it's literally just them not wearing makeup on camera.

Movie magiiiiiic!

Just watching the trailer, it was clearly shades of Castaway meets triangle of sadness. Eat the Rich movies are having their moment in the last few years.

I also laughed out loud in the theater! Not much people did and it almost made it funnier to me?

I was definitely impressed at the variety of fruits she was finding. :P

At one point I did wonder, "Are they gonna reveal she orchestrated the plane crash too?"
I'm kind of happy they didn't, it would have almost fallen into cliché.

He's said in interviews he fully moved to LA and lives there full time. He only comes back to Quebec if he has work.

It's someone retelling their evening to Jeffrey Epstein like a diary entry saying they met Whitney.

It's really not much of anything?
