HOLLYWOOD SUE CAMERON: MILEY CYRUS AND ELVIS

I AM NOW CONFUSED. IT MAY BE GENERATIONAL, OR IT MAY JUST BE ABOUT GOOD TASTE/BAD TASTE.

Remember when Elvis Presley wasn't shot below the waist on TV because the networks thought it was in bad taste? I didn't think so. Remember when school boards and town councils tried to ban Elvis from performing in their cities. I thought they were stupid.

I realize now that it is a different time and things have changed. I'm not for censorship, but now I am not for turning bad taste disgusting performances by stars into something to idolize and love. It DOES send a terrible message to young kids. I know parents can stop them from watching TV, but in today's wireless society there's little chance of protecting our kids. I guess all you can do is safeguard what happens in your home.

LOOK AT THE PICTURE BELOW of Will Smith and his family watching Miley Cyrus' performance with Robin Thicke. It says it all. These are hip people who are not prudes, and look at their faces.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME??????

By the way, I am not attacking Robin Thicke in any way. He's REALLY talented, and if these women are so ignorant that they will do this stuff---what does he care? He has the style to carry it off once in a while. The audience knows and feels he's not really this way. He's a genuinely a happy husband and father with a life.

Elvis was good boy!

The sad thing about all of this is that Miley has real talent. She's an excellent singer, and obviously knows how to move. In comparison Elvis Presley is now Pat Boone compared to Miley, but Elvis was as or more talented than Miley. He was an original. Miley's just copying Madonna and going WAY OUT into the crass, vile stratosphere. Madonna is every bit the original as Elvis, and even though she doesn't have any kind of voice, compared to those two, she gets a A+ in marketing. Harvard should make her a professor emeritus in that subject.


Fabulous entertainer.

I'm kind of glad Elvis is not around to have to face being relevant and re-inventing himself. Can you see him in silver tights and a cod-piece with a shaved head???? Or, what's worse, if he were starting out today, he probably wouldn't make it at all. He would be too authentic and, therefore, invisible.

FROM THE DISGUSTING TO THE TRULY VALUED----

TREVOR DALEY, SENATOR DIANNE FEINSTEIN'S CHIEF OF STAFF FOR CALIFORNIA, had a birthday party at Cecconi's the other night. Actually he had three different parties on different nights, and this one the one I could make. There is alwasy stimulating political and societal discussion and Tervor's gatherings........as well as a dash of smut.

The ladies pictured below could run the world with one hand tied behind their backs. L-R: Billie Greer, former Governor Schwarzenegger's Director who ran his Los Angeles office--Billie is now president of the Southern California Leadership Council, which consists of all former governors and other state and business leaders; Vicki Reynolds, former mayor of Beverly Hills and civic leader (especially for the new Annenberg Center for the Arts); Lane Dilg, U.S. Federal Prosecutor for Drugs and Human Trafficking in California; and Voviette Morgan, FBI Special Agent for Terrorism. Yep. Don't mess with this group.
