I’m disgusted that the 2017 Emmy Awards gave Sean Spicer the opportunity to play all cutesy and “in on the joke” during the broadcast last night. For a time, Spicer was the No. 1 liar for the white-supremacist president who is trying to tear apart our democracy. This freaky eater of gum doesn’t deserve a chance to rehabilitate his reputation. It was especially painful to see after a week in which Hillary Clinton endured unrelenting attacks on her right to write a book based on her own goddamn experience as the first woman to be a presidential nominee for one of the two major parties. She’s an important historical figure. Spicer is a collaborator. Guess who gets patted on the back?
Now I feel soured on the Emmys: Fuck the jewelry, fuck the outfits, fuck everyone who thought that giving Spicer a chance to shine was a good idea. Therefore, I’ll make this post about the winner of my prestigious Best Dressed/Wear What You Want combo award brief: Jane Fonda. Turning 80 this December. Amazing. I love her. Custom-made hot pink dress by Brandon Maxwell.
Great train.
The back view was even better, thanks to Gismondi’s necklace made with 152 carats of emeralds and diamonds. The piece was paired with a 10-carat emerald ring and chandelier earrings with 40-plus carats of diamonds and emeralds. Emerald green and hot pink: What a color combination.
To top it all off — literally — you know I love me a faux-ny tail. My eyes nearly fell out of my head when I saw Jane’s. Very different for her!
My runner-up for the Best Dressed/Wear What You Want award is RuPaul. I’ve been a fan since his “Supermodel” days.
In drag or out of drag, RuPaul always rules.
And that’s it! That’s as much thought as I’m going to put into this latest effort to normalize the Trump regime.

I just love Jane. Was never a fan until Grace & Frankie and then I read her autobiography- eye opening and so honest! Its sad so many Americans still hate her for the Vietnam protesting.

I read her book too!
