J'ai deux armours, Josephine Baker et Josephine Baker

What a super wonderful EVENING. Distressed from a phone call with the mortgage company (up for a re-mortgage and they're telling me I have now have a 'lease mortgage' which is oh so tres complicate!!!) I walked up to the gym listening to Mme Baker and I LOURVE her. She is just phenom - her whole life story and transformation into this super icon and even though the Parisians embraced her as the exotic 'negress' girlfriend played the game for real and you think Angelina invented the UN rainbow family? Hello no, that was Josephine trail-blazing that trend ((Japanese, Venezuelan, Israeli, Ivorian, Moroccan, Korean, French and others which I want to emulate!!) and she was bi and owned it!!! And she had sex with Frida Kahlo. Blows my mind - two of my most inspiring artists ever got it on!! Muse to Hemingway, Piccasso, F.Scott Fitzgerald, Langston Hughes AND Christian Dior!!! (Eff off racist Galliano) AND she effed off America renouncing citizenship of a country that treated her like crap and assumed French citizenship and became a French spy Briliiant! I actually want to be her. Anyway my love was re-ignited with what is my second (first being Little White Lies) favourite film of the year - Midnight in Paris which I saw on the flight to Vegas and all I have to say is if you love Paris and the 20s and literature and jazz and art (like I do) SEE THIS FILM!!!!!!!
