Disco Hotness

Jordan and I met up with my mom's cousin and aunt and went to see Mama Mia! It's the best! It's a great movie to go to with your girlfriends. It's fun and funny and makes you feel like dancing. And although the guys in it are old - they are hot! While I still favor Collin Firth, Pierce Brosnan and the Skarsgaard guy are nice to look at too. Ooh, small spoiler, they go shirtless and while most middle age men don't look good with their shirts off, these men can pull it off (sorry for the pun). They didn't even repulse Jordan which is saying A LOT. Okay, I confess, this is my second time seeing it. I saw it earlier in the week but knew that my cousin would like it and it gave me a great excuse to see it again. It may be disco music but it's not a disco movie by any means. Meryl Streep is great and all the people in the movie looked like they were having so much fun doing it.

So I'm telling my friend about it and she tells me she hates musicals almost as much as she hates disco. The only musical she can stand better have Fred Astaire and it better be raining. This got me to thinking...wouldn't it be funny to see Fred Astaire in sequenced bell bottoms singing in the rain? Or Mary Poppins in a leather jacket and back alley singing about a spoonful of sugar? I think Mary Poppins would have made a great Jet, oooh, or better yet, a Pink Lady. Or what about Maria from the Sound of Music, can you imagine her singing about her Summer Lovin? Although I can totally picture her Danny Zucko singing "We Go Together." Oh great, now I've got that stuck in my head. So for all you disco musical haters I say grab your glitter, throw on your platforms, unbutton your shirt to your navel - don't forget the matching headband - and Shake Your Groove Thing, Shake Your Groove Thing, yeah, yeah. You know you want to, go on, we won't tell...
