KLEM FM

Check out this mash up:


It's kind of like Keith Richards collaborates with Nancy Reagan.

Dolly gets off the best lines: "I could be in 4 Non Blondes....Lord knows, I'm not blonde."

Deep into the clip, someone asks: "Did it feel different to you, working surrounded by women?"

Dolly: Oh Lord, I have been working with women all my life -- I have five sisters, my aunts, all my girlfriends..so I love women...I love men too."  [big laugh].

Linda Perry gives Dolly a huge compliment regarding her work ethic and makes it sound like Hollywood musicians are slackers.

All in all, I'd say that Dolly made huge inroads into the first letter in LGBT. And here I only thought G's admired her.

Here is a rough version of their collaboration:


And here's how Linda Perry got famous:

Rita Hayworth



I had no idea this is who Rita Hayworth is. I thought she was a WWII pin up girl. These clips show she was spectacularly fun. 

I have seen these clips with Fred Astaire but I thought the woman he dances with is his sister, Adele, because Fred's dancing partner is a crossword fill answer. Her name is a gimmie for solvers. And now this clip shows the woman is Rita and that changes everything. Honestly, the men look like they're working and she looks like she's having a blast. 

Non-Hayworth related, there is another similar mashup, an old clip of the Ross Sisters also having a blast mashed up with new music. They're contortionists. The clip is intriguing and well done. Viewers complained they like the original music better, a ridiculous song, Solid Potato Salad. And the whole time you're watching the first mashup you're thinking, how in the world did they squeeze an act like that into a movie? It doesn't fit with anything. And the barn floor is unbarnlike stage flat. Turns in the original the way they fit in the act is have a movie about fitting the girls act into a show to be played at the barn theater. Mystery solved.
