KC & THE SPARKLE VIDEO DAY!

It’s a wonder that I’ve not featured KC & The Sunshine Band before, considering my card carrying membership to the fan club when I was a just a tot.  It’s true!  Every month I received color glossy photos of my one true love, Harry Wayne Casey and band members, decked out in their sparkling best and also got autographed cards at holiday time, but I digress.

Today’s Sparkle Video is a classic among classics because once that first keyboard note hits, your mind goes into party mode, your feet follow suit and then all you can do is “Shake Your Booty”!  Just look at KC’s smile- he knows he’s wearing the most supreme sparkle outfit ever: brightly colored, slightly cowboy and seriously bedazzled. In fact, the whole band is looking top notch and might I say the ladies are H-O-T especially the one in the blue giving the disco superhero look … FAB-U-LOUS!

CAN YOU HANDLE SPARKLE VIDEO DAY?!

I don’t need to say much about today’s Sparkle Video other than it’s one of my all-time favorites and pure glittering magic.  The legendary Sharon Redd, dressed in bedazzled black spandex, is giving mad sultry soul with “Can You Handle It” in such a fabulous way, that if you’re not shaking your ass right now- you need to get to Doctor Sparkles pronto. However, if you’re like me and like to work it out in your living room disco…  ENJOY!

Sparkle Booze: APPROVED!

It’s no secret that I love a sparkly cocktail, but one thing I love even more than a sparkly cocktail is a sparkly cocktail made with booze that comes from a sparkly bottle.  To be honest, I really have no idea what Hpnotiq is or why someone thought is was a good idea to spell the name in such a ridiculous manner, but who cares?  They also had the luxuriously great sense to get out the bedazzler and dress it up for the party and not only that, but this stuff actually managed mix up some awesome “triple D’s”, as in dazzlingly delicious drinks!  Hpnotiq: it’s blue, it sparkles and it’s APPROVED!

HOT SQUEEZE SPARKLE VIDEO DAY!

I can’t decide what makes me love today’s Sparkle Video more- the fact that it reminds me of having cocktails in one of those fabulously tragic cabana bars in Florida or the obvious choice that my man from Hot Chocolate is rocking a serious “moose knuckle” in his ultra tight silver sparkle pants topped off with a totally O.T.T. bedazzled belt. He’s sure got a major squeeze on those goods, but that’s what we call “suffering for Sparkle Fashion”!

ANOTHER BADASS SPARKLE VIDEO DAY!

As a follow up to last week’s Sparkle Video (and the first of 2011), today we have the Ohio Players– you guessed it- also on the Midnight Special and also rocking the denim bedazzler look. “Love Rollercoaster” is a classic funk favorite and there’s no other way to look when you’re playing this song than like they do here: Sparkly, Funky and BadAss! Watching this group get down and glitter gets me beyond excited and the splendid addition of old school pop n’ lock dancers makes me wanna scream “F*ck Yeah!”.

I know you are just gagging to ask, “General, what’s your obsession with the Midnight Special?” and I will tell you it’s my comfort food.  You see, when I was just a wee lass, I had terrible insomnia and couldn’t sleep at all. I was born ready and waiting for the day when I would be old enough to party all night, but in the meantime, I had no choice but to stay up very late and watch television.  The weekends were the best because the Midnight Special was on and I got to watch all kinds of fabulous bands, covered in rhinestones and lit with star filters during my innocent formative years.  It truly made it’s mark on me, but then again, perhaps I was already into this stuff and that’s why I watched?  The world may never know.
