This is cool.

Is it just us, or does this Gareth Pugh-wearing, nipple-baring, attitude-glaring creature appear to be oddly proportioned?

This video is all kinds of fabulous. So is the song, and so is our beloved French boyfriend, Etienne Daho.

Meow!

Here on Fabulon, the only way to judge a film---or anything else, for that matter---is by how fabulous it is. Below are a handful that absolutely MUST be seen by anyone aspiring to embrace their inner Fabulonian.


A cinematic celebration of fabulosity, this explosion of sound and vision is silly, fun, and operatic in scope. Wonderful performances by the lovely leads take Baz Luhrman's whimsy straight to the heart.


Divine decadence shaped into a flawless, adult musical by the great Bob Fosse. Every detail is perfect, as is the casting. And yes, this is why Liza Minnelli was born. She's been playing Sally Bowles ever since.


If you see only one film by Federico Fellini, make it Juliet of the Spirits. Truly an excercise in unbridled fabulosity. A meditation on the feminine mystique, and hats.


A homoerotic fever dream, Fassbinder's final film stars the beautiful Brad Davis as Jean Genet's anti-hero. Glittering and bizarre and unlike anything else.

Take the "L" out of "Motels" and it's "Motes"!

No doubt these renderings are far more fabulous than the actual venues they portray. We might even go as far as to say they're suitable for framing!

Our latest FOOF, Dirk Bogarde was as lovely as he was talented. Known and respected for taking on challenging roles in films such as Victim, The Servant, The Damned, Night Porter, Darling, and Death in Venice, he was also in Modesty Blaise. We'll always love him for it.


Legend has it that in 1990 Madonna approached him to appear in her "Justify My Love" video, but he declined. As far as we're concerned, the fag who can say "no" to Madonna does not need to justify anything!

It has come to our attention that a number of our beloved Fabulonians, including Tula, Donna Lethal, ElCynic, and the infamous Emma P (to name a few), all live in the greater Los Angeles area. Need we say more? It's time for these Hollywood Wives to have some cocktails, at least!

Therefore and thusly, we hereby decree that our SoCal gays and gals MUST meet. It is your manifest destiny, darlings. Embrace it! Share the love. And perhaps a down-on-his-luck rentboy. Take pictures. Then report back to us for further instructions.

So it is written, so it shall be, bitches!

In this odd relic, Edie Adams, Dinah Shore, and Keely Smith
dream of "meekly obeying the guy who comes home..."

Three generations of Gabors gather in the Hotel Sacher to take a portrait in a rare moment of family togetherness, Vienna, Austria, circa 1955. Left to right: (top row) Madga (1919 - 1997), 'Mama' Jolie (1894 - 1997) and Eva Gabor (1919 - 1995); (bottom row) Zsa Zsa and Papa (Vilmos) Gabor and Francesca Hilton, age 8, Zsa Zsa's daughter by hotel magnate Conrad Hilton. Francesca is the only child to result from the combined 20 marriages of the three Gabor sisters.



(Dedicated to Donna Lethal, of course! She'll be our next Guest Host on the 15th!)
