It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I'm just catching up this thread since I only watched SYTYCD last night. For the Lady Gaga/Mark performance, here's a hi-def version: [link] Just. whoa.

Ooh, thanks for the hi-def--I couldn't even tell it was Mark, in the other one! (And I don't watch Idol).

Is it bad that I had heard that Lady Gaga song somewhere before, and somehow assumed it was an old Cher song?

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

um. wow.

thanks for the link. Mark has buffed the fuck up. dang di dang dang.

meara, that song has a full-on 80s sound to it. I can imagine it with a pairing of "Total Eclipse of the Heart" during a climatic scene in Footloose.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was thinking St Elmo's Fire.

Our little Mark is all grown up! Here's a great summary of some of his work on SYTYCD and his Gaga stuff.

thank you for that link. (sigh)

You know, I have mixed feelings about Gaga, but I will give her this: her dancing ain't great, but she puts on a helluva show. Good for her.

Ooh! Ellen had a bunch of SYTYCD alums on her show today, including Alex Wong! So I guess we can look for him as an all-star.

What the hell? The History Channel is running a two hour program tonight about Lee and Grant. I didn't know either of them ran a fishing boat or drove a tractor-trailer rig over frozen tundra!
