~FLA FLA FLAME-OUT/MR BRAINWASH !!
FROM DU DU DUALITY . . . TO SING SING SINGULARITY !!
(Yeah Josh Harris’ favorite word, I know. . . and he should know, he did a nice flame-out, himself.)
(just saying . . . )
. . . taking about spectacular flame-outs – RICHARD HAMBLETON, CHARLIE SHEEN and all . . .
last year MR. BRAINWASH just just missed the ALEXANDER McQUEEN – FLAME-OUT BY SUICIDE . . . which happened the very afternoon of MR. BRAINWASH’S – NEW YORK CITY debut solo show – called “ICONS” – what else ?
we called him out on it, at the opening. yeah, he got a little pissed. but, hey maybe he was just – way way ahead of the game.
. . . cause he did catch this year’s JOHN GALLIANO – FLAME-OUT by ANTI-SEMITIC TIRADE !! !!
could it be just a coincidence that Mr. Galliano’s big boss – CHRISTIAN DIOR CEO SIDNEY TOLEDANO – is Jew . . .
if you read between the lines – the fashion insiders are saying Galliano was already under the gun – “past his creative peak” and getting the red flags of an imminent heave-ho, and good bye ole pirate. and maybe . . . that was why he was under such stress. as to play out.
hey. we know one biggie in the art world – no names – he has one more than four drinks – and the games up. he starts seriously punching.
hard. even at gala Met openings. no joke. no I wasn’t there – but I have it from an indisputable – firsthand source. who, yeah. did get punched hard, in the shoulder.
