As I was a little cruel about Lorenz Hart in my previous post, I thought I would expand here.
I love Hart. I love his wryness, his irony, the melancholy cynicism that he inflects his lyrics with which sets him apart from other lyricists of the era. It's well known at this stage that Hart was an alcoholic, a repressed gay man who struggled hugely with body image (standing at under 5 foot) and that he drank himself to an early grave, leading Rodgers to take up with Hammerstein. His melancholy, cynical sensibility feels true, and his life sadly seems to confirm it. A lyric like I Wish I Were In Love Again, sung above by Judy Garland, takes even a jaunty love song and throws a layer of irony over it - I love it.
Sondheim is very critical of Hart in Finishing the Hat, however, and once you hear his criticism it's hard not to hear it in his songs. Sondheim talks of once performing a stunt in public where he would open the Rodgers and Hart songbook at random and prove that on any page he could find a mistressed syllable, poor syntax, or an equivalent lyrical sin. Take Bewitched, which probably has some of Hart's best work - worshipping the trousers that cling to him says so much about the superficiality of attraction, but sung by an aging woman in a relationship with a young man it is not flippant, but desperately sad.
Despite this, the constant proliferation of "am I"s at the end of sentences makes a song which is deeply emotive and character driven actually quite difficult to understand; there are always several verses that I find myself parsing as I listen, which is never good.
Having said that, Oscar Hammerstein was very keen to rehabilitate Hart's image for Sondheim, giving him the credit of bringing realism into lyrics in the 30s. Whilst this might seem odd in the middle of tortuous syntax, a song like Bewitched is so much more human in its honesty as well as its colloquial vocabulary than other songs of the era. So I can't be too cruel to Hart - even with its difficult lyrics, Bewitched still has a place in the pantheon of all time greats.

Propaganda
Judy Garland (Meet Me In St. Louis, A Star is Born, Summer Stock)— Judy is the GOAT when it comes to classic movie musicals. The voice of an angel who deserved so much better than she got. She can sing she can dance she can act she's a triple threat. Though she had a turbulent personal life (her treatment as a child star by the studio system makes me mad as hell like Louis b Mayer fight me ((she was made to believe that she was physically unattractive by the constant criticism of film executives who made her feel ugly and who manipulated her onscreen appearance by capping her teeth and using discs in her nose to change its shape and Mayer called her "my little hunchback" like imagine hearing that as a child and not having damage)) she always goddamn delivered on screen and in any performance she gave. She began in vaudeville performing with her sisters and was signed to MGM at 13. Starting out in supporting parts especially paired with mickey Rooney in a bunch of films (she's the best part tbh) she eventually transferred to the lead role. She is best known for her starring role in movie musicals like the iconic Wizard of Oz (somewhere over the rainbow still hits hard and is ranked the top film song of all time), meet me in St. Louis (Judy singing have your self a merry little Christmas brings tears to the eyes she is that powerful), the Harvey girls (she looks like a technicolor dream and sings a catchy af song about trains), Easter parade ( dancing and singing with Fred Astaire), for me and my gal, the pirate, and summer stock ( with pal Gene Kelly who she helped when he was starting out and he helped her when she was struggling). But she also does non- singing just as well like the clock ( her first movie where she sings no songs and is an underrated ww2 era romance), her Oscar nominated a star is born ( like the man that got away she put her whole soul in that and I have beef with the fact she lost to grace kelly ((whom I love but like still not even her best work)), and judgement at Nuremberg (a courtroom drama about the nazi war criminal trials). Outside of film she made concert appearances to record-breaking audiences, released 8 studio albums, and had her own Emmy-nominated tv series. She was the youngest (39) and first female recipient of the Cecil B DeMille award for lifetime achievement in the film industry. Girl was a lifelong democrat and was a financial and moral supporter of many causes including the civil rights movement (she was at the March on Washington and held a press conference to protest the 16th street Baptist church bombings). She was a friend of the Kennedy family and would call jfk weekly often ending the calls by singing the first few lines of somewhere over the rainbow (she thought of them as Gemini twins).She was a member of the committee for the first amendment which was formed in response to the HUAC investigations. Though she died far too young and tragically she remains an icon for her work and her life. As a girl who didn't feel like i was as pretty as everyone else I have always felt a connection to Judy and I just really love her.
Natalie Wood (West Side Story, The Great Race)—She went through so much shit which I know can be said for all these women but Natalie really was a star and her death often overshadows her career and life. She could make you cry, but she also had the capacity to be incredibly funny which I think is lost on people.
This is round 4 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.

Incredibly charming and cool. I adore her.

Living The Beatles Legend:
After a lifetime of self-doubt over body issues and inveterate shyness, he simply couldn’t control himself. “Big Mal was a demon for sex,” Tony wrote. “[...] Like sacrificial virgins, a lot of the girls willingly accepted that they would have to do it with Mal to get to John, Paul, George, or Ringo, and Mal knew it.”
“A couple of newspaper friends put on a private show involving several prostitutes for our entertainment, one of them being very pregnant.” As Mal recalled, “It was a little unnerving to have these ladies performing before our eyes with each other in one room, with Brian, George Martin and Judy, and the rather more staid members of the press in the adjoining living room.”
“I was being entertained by a young lady late one evening,” Mal wrote, “when George rushes into the darkened room, stoned out of his mind, tearing the bedclothes off, shouting, ‘My turn next—come on, give us a bit!’” Mal gave way to the Beatle, concluding that “apart from that, I was the one that got screwed.”
By this point, [Lily] wasn’t just finding “silly groupie letters” in his suitcase, but also the occasional stray pair of knickers and other telltale signs of infidelity. She recognized that Mal was being seduced—and had been for some time—by overwhelming forces, impulses with which she could hardly begin to compete.
After her brother returned from the States, June recalled that “Malcolm came home knackered, absolutely shattered from that tour.” [...] Her brother and the Beatles were living in a “totally unreal world—an extraordinary, horrendous, wonderful, terrible place that they were all existing in during that period. And they were all damaged by it. They suddenly could have anything they wanted.”
After sharing a convivial dinner with Victoria’s father, who retired early, Mal (31yo) and Victoria (16yo) returned to the hotel and went up to the twenty-seventh floor. [..] “Mal was very sweet,” she recalled, “and we talked and we talked, and we sort of made out.” And while she was unable to meet the Beatles the next morning to do an interview, she exchanged contact information with Mal. And later that year, the letters from her new pen pal began arriving, elegantly adorned with “this beautiful British handwriting.” *
Eventually, Mal would develop a vital relationship of his own with the Scruffs, although he had his detractors—namely, Carol Bedford, a peripheral member of their scrum and a George aficionado who later claimed that Mal tried to put the moves on her. Apparently, Mal had continued to approach women in the Beatles’ universe in the same transactional manner in which he and Neil had “auditioned” willing fans during the band’s touring years. Another Apple Scruff recalled a similar instance when Mal’s attempts to cozy up to the Scruffs went terribly wrong. Apparently, he had crawled under one of the girls’ blankets and “touched something he shouldn’t have.” With that, the offended Scruff came flying out from under the blanket yelling, “Who do you think you are, Paul McCartney?” **
Since leaving the hospital, [Arwen (21yo)] had reared Little Malcolm in her cramped lodgings in West Hampstead. At some point, around the age of six months, he was put up for adoption, leaving her care lock, stock, and barrel, with Mal’s teddy bear as the baby’s only consolation. Mal’s diary would enumerate lunches and telephone calls with the young woman at various points across 1969, but eventually, Arwen chose to move on, putting the whole painful episode behind her. ***
[For his son's birthday] Mal made a cassette recording in which he offered his sincere wishes for the coming year. [...] But any goodwill Mal hoped to deliver was quickly undone that morning as Gary listened to the recording over breakfast with his mother and sister. To his incredible pain and embarrassment, the tape didn’t end with his father’s birthday greeting. Apparently, Mal had recycled the cassette, and as Gary and his sister prepared to go to school, they heard the unmistakable sounds of Fran fellating their dad. The boy’s only solace was the knowledge that his eight-year-old sister didn’t understand the sounds emanating from the tape player.
[..]for the first time, Fran found herself afraid of her boyfriend, whose darkness had never been more acute. It all came to a head one night when Mal, drunk to the gills, began threatening her with his Colt Woodsman pistol, at one point placing the gun against her head before discharging it into the washing machine. When he sobered up, Mal couldn’t have been more apologetic, swearing to mend his ways and be the boyfriend she deserved.
____________________________________
Another quote under the cut, with trigger warning for rape and attempted suicide - and a few notes about some of it.
____________________________________
June 1964 - New Zealand
At the time, the official story involved a twenty-year-old female fan who, having secreted her way into the hotel, chose to slash her wrists in Mal’s room after being unable to talk her way into the Beatles’ suite. Fortunately, police caught sight of the young woman through a window and broke down the locked door with a battering ram. She was subsequently taken to a local hospital and discharged that same day.
[There are then some bits about how Derek tried to ensure it didn't link back to the Beatles in anyway, and the way the press reported it as "Girl Tries To Die For Beatles", and someone else claiming she'd actually had sex with someone and then got 'hysterical' because she realised he wasn't going to get her in to see the Beatles... but eventually it cuts to the quote from Mal's diary below.]
“On arriving back at the hotel at two in the morning,” he wrote, “I was greeted by a crowd of police and detectives as the elevator doors opened at my floor. On verifying that I occupied a particular room number, they very solemnly escorted me there, where to my horror on opening the door, I found the bathroom and bedroom covered in blood. Apparently, what had happened [was] several people had gang-banged her in my bedroom. She was so distraught, she took a razor blade from my razor and slashed her wrists, but was discovered in time and recovered in hospital. Obviously I was a prime suspect, but I had the best alibi in the world—I was drinking tea with her mother.” ****
____________________________________
* Victoria was 16, and Mal was 31. He wrote with her for a few years and met up with her again several times, and there's a quote where she says she "thought she was in love with him", and another where she was surprised to find out he was married. He's a grown man with a family and it's creepy as fuck that he was leading on/grooming a 16 year old girl - although I think according to the book they never had sex.
** I've bolded a lot of the wording which fucks me the fuck off in that passage about apple scruffs, what a fucking weird piece of writing. Apparently apparently apparently - I don't even think he's using it to suggest it might not be true, I think he's just using it to make it sound a bit casual, oh turns out he was just treating them like shit like he used to! Oh he was just 'cozying up' ??????? The last bit also feels like the girl being able to fight her corner and tell him off is being used to suggest it therefore didn't matter - not to suggest that there were probably lots of other girls who didn't want his hands on them but didn't know how to say no. It's also quickly followed by a quote of another apple scruff saying he took care of them like a big brother and they all loved him. Which is fine. But teenage girls feeling as though the creepy guy who is being nice to them in order to take advantage is just being nice to them, doesn't mean much. It's creepy that he was trying to befriend the young vulnerable girls that idolised anyone who worked with Beatles, you've literally just said he was doing it in a 'transactional manner'.
*** The author used a pseudonym for Arwen - a young woman that Mal had an affair and a child with. He wrote in his diary when the child was born, and visited them, "gifting the boy with an oversize teddy bear from Harrods". Personally I think 'chose to move on' covers an awful lot of pain very glibly. Imagine having to give your baby away after six months, imagine what she went through. It is not a small thing that he carelessly got a young woman pregnant and then offered her nothing.
**** I think we all live in Beatles fandom knowing that the people we enjoy did awful terrible things, but sometimes it's good to confront how bad it was, even if we'll never know who was involved in this particular incident. Or how often it happened to other women. Whether Beatles were involved here or not, they were around this, they were inside it. They were influenced by and friends with horrible people. Imagine writing that in your diary like it's a good joke that you were having tea with her mum while she was going through that, and not how awful that would actually feel if you had a heart. The author adds that this incident affected Mal, saying, "His “demon” persona was still alive and well, to be sure, but there would be perceptible shifts in his outlook as the group’s touring days moved forward." I didn't really pick up on these, so I'm not sure how so.

On the set of Head (1968): photo 2 from Monkees Monthly.
“Mike Nesmith, who had permission to wear his beard in the Monkees’ forthcoming movie (yet to be started) shaved it. Peter Tork, who doesn’t (have permission), didn’t (shave)… yet.” - Judy Sims, Disc & Music Echo, February 17, 1968 “[W]e start [the ‘As We Go Along’ sequence] with me in Alaska. Where I went up — at that point, we had already shot, this is post-production shooting. I wanted to go out wearing my beard. Bob [Rafelson] wouldn’t hear of it, so I deliberately cut my sideburns back like Stephen Stills. This is my homage to Stephen: if you’re watching this, hey, pal, I’m thinking of you.” - Peter Tork, Head (1968) commentary

Good Omens Aziraphale's Sad Bastard Breakup Playlist
After the breakup, Aziraphale has a new job in heaven, having taken Gabriel’s vacant position. Aziraphale is haunted by sad music reminding him of his time with Crowley. The songs are dramatic, tragic, melancholic, angry, wistful, romantic, and sentimental. How does he listen to music at his new job in the head office? Are material objects allowed? Does he keep a secret stash of tea, cake, and records and a phonograph player in his office? Does he have a celestial radio that can tune in Earth radio stations? Does he sneak off to Earth to hang out in record shops and bookstores? Or more dramatically and emotionally torturously, does he remember every note, every nuance, every feeling, of every song and replay them in his mind? He's stuffing his face with angel food cake and tea while crying and listening to sad bastard songs and hiding from Michael and the Metatron.
See note after list on song selection process.
Songs include:
“Lacrimosa” – Mozart, Requiem in D Minor, Vienna Mozart Orchestra
“Commendatore” – Mozart, Don Giovanni, Amadeus film soundtrack
“Ja, tot katoramu vnimala” – Rubenstein, The Demon, Nicolai Ghiaurov
“D’amour l’ardente flemme” – Berlioz, The Damnation of Faust, Maria Callas
“Liebestod” – Wagner, Tristan and Isolde, Waltraud Meier
“Ach ich fuhls” – Mozart, The Magic Flute, Gundula Janowitz
“Thy hand, Belinda … When I am laid in earth” – Purcell, Dido and Aeneas, Janet Baker
“E lucevan la stelle” – Puccini, Tosca, Placido Domingo
“Celeste Aidia” – Verdi, Aida, Mario Lanza
“Ich bin der Welt abhanden gekommen” Mahler, Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau
“Der Wanderer” – Schubert, Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau
“Love is a Plaintive Song” – Gilbert and Sullivan, Patience, D’Oyly Carte Opera Company
“I am a Courtier Grave and Serious” – Gilbert and Sullivan, The Gondoliers, D’Oyly Carte Opera Company
“The Gentleman is a Dope” – Rodgers and Hammerstein, Allegro, Blossom Dearie
“A Hymn to Him” – Lerner and Lowe, My Fair Lady, Rex Harrison
“Could I Leave You?” – Sondheim, Follies, Alexis Smith
“We Do Not Belong Together” – Sondheim, Sunday in the Park with George, Bernadette Peters and Mandy Patinkin
“On My Own” – Schonberg, Les Misérables, Frances Ruffelle
“As Long as He Needs Me” – Bert, Oliver, Judy Garland
 “Stranger in Paradise” – Wright and Forest, Kismet, Richard Kiley and Doretta Morrow
“A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square” – Sherwin and Maschwitz, Vera Lynn
“Night and Day” – Porter, The Gay Divorcee, Ella Fitzgerald
“I’ve Got You Under My Skin” – Porter, Born to Dance, Shirley Bassey
“Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered” – Rodgers and Heart, Pal Joey, Sarah Vaughan
“They Can’t Take That Away From Me” – Gershwin, Shall We Dance, Fred Astaire
“Mon Deu” – Dumont and Vaucaire, Edith Piaf
“Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien” – Dumont and Vaucaire, Edith Piaf
P.S.: Aziraphale likes Les Mis because it reminds him of that time Crowley rescued him from the Bastille. Don't tell anyone. It's a big secret.
P.P.S.: “Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered” reminds him of the time he and Crowley got drunk in the backroom at the bookshop the day the anti-Christ was delivered to Earth. Basically, this song reminds him of every time they went out for drinks or stayed in and drank.
P.P.P.S.: “I am a Courtier Grave and Serious” was the song Aziraphale planned to play when trying to tempt Crowley into learning the gavotte. It reminds him of the ball in the bookstore when he finally danced with Crowley.
P.P.P.P.S.: “Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien” is as close as Aziraphale can get to telling the world and Crowley to eff off. He has no more effs to give. Or at least he’s trying to convince himself he no longer gives a f***. He’s going off to his new job at the head office and Do Good.
Note on song selection:
I selected songs that thematically fit with the relationship between Aziraphale and Crowley. I think the songs tell a story of Aziraphale’s struggle to reconcile his conflicted motivations. They reflect Aziraphale’s fears and desires. He fears being hauled off to hell for disobedience. He fears Crowley’s death and being alone in the world. He desires to be emotionally intimate with Crowley. (Dare he risk physical intimacy with Crowley?) He feels self-righteously indignant, but he’s soft and squishy and weepy and misses his best friend.
I don’t have much knowledge of opera or musical theater, but I have some experience with choir and solo performance. I did a lot of research into opera, art songs, musicals, showtunes, and standards to create a playlist on YouTube. Selections were based on availability, popularity, and sound quality. My big question was whether or not Aziraphale is a strict originalist or if he likes different versions of songs. In some places, I chose newer versions over original versions due to the sound quality of the recordings. I tried to keep selections accessible to a wide audience with varying degrees of musical knowledge. You may not like my choices, so your mileage may vary. You can make your own playlist.
You can listen to it on YouTube.

I was told she’d already turned down the opportunity to pose for one of the most prestigious ad campaigns then in progress: the fur industry’s Peter Rogers’ “What Becomes A Legend Most?” series, for which Richard Avedon photographed top stars, past and present, wearing designer mink coats. Their payment for posing: the costly coat (each worth well over $20,000). Lauren Bacall, Bette Davis, Joan Crawford, Marlene Dietrich, Judy Garland — and contemporary legends including Diana Ross and Barbra Streisand — along with Ava’s close pal, Lena Horne, were among those who had participated thus far.
Ava Gardner’s reason for turning down the opportunity: “I no longer wear dead animals on my back, honey.” And this was years before the founding of PETA! (x)

sophomore year | wc: 2.5k
Tumblr media
“ugh do i actually have to go?” you ask jaehyun as he lay on your bed in you and judie’s shared dorm.
“i mean, personally, i think you need to socialize…and because you two have bad memory…i can’t believe you two forgot who yugyeom was…that’s your bestfriend.” jaehyun said as he scrolls through his instagram. judie whistled as she comes out of the bathroom. you rolled your eyes at jaehyun and finally started looking for an outfit.
“My bad man! I’ve got a bad memory…and besides, yn, you gotta go for me since I can’t go. Fuck this stupid term paper, how could I forget about it!” Judie said as she starts typing her term paper on her MacBook.
“you frats are the worst…i’m only doing this for you, jae…and you too judie.” you said as you held a dress infront of you. jaehyun and judie both nodded their heads. you started undressing yourself when you suddenly hear jaehyun.
“damn, badonkadonk.” he said as judie slapped him and covered his eyes. you chuckled as you slip into your dress. 
“no, but really…and also because i heard one of my twitter opp would be there.” you said, starting your makeup. jaehyun removed judie’s hands from his eyes as he pondered.
“which one?” he asks. you sighed.
“jungkook.” you said. he suddenly starting laughing.
“i’m friends with him…you know that right?”
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
“don’t remind me…i always forget your friend group…it’s too big man.” you complained, finally finishing your makeup. you spritz some perfume on your skin as you put on your heels. jaehyun looked at you and smiled.
“you don’t look too bad. Stay safe here judie, and actually finish your term paper.” he said as judie laughed, waving goodbye. You and jaehyun left, him as the designated driver. 
arriving at the frat house, you could already hear the blasting music from the building. you gulped as jaehyun parked his car just near the house. the both of you came out of the car when jaehyun suddenly patted your shoulder.
“hey, just have fun tonight, okay? and if you ever feel uncomfy, call me.” he said, guiding you inside the house. the amount of beer and men is indescribable. you saw some familiar faces here and there but didnt really know them personally. as you were looking around the house, you were suddenly handed a cup of beer, along with jaehyun.
“you made it!” a voice said behind you. you look behind you and saw a male with raven hair. he had an eyebrow piercing and a lip piercing. wasnt your type.
“yoo! jungkook!” jaehyun greeted him while you were astounded. jungkook? like your twitter opp? you knew he was gonna be here tonight, but you didnt know you were gonna meet him as soon as you walk in. jungkook looked at you and smirked.
“ynrkive you make me sick.” he said as you playfully punch his side. he jokingly fainted into jaehyun’s arms and laughed. he reached out his hand to yours. you shake his hands and smiled.
“nice to finally meet you too…who would’ve thought i was trolled by a film student.” you said while taking a sip from your cup. jungkook laughed as he guides your group to the living room, taking a seat on the sofa. 
“i just wanted attention that day! and i mean it worked!” He laughed. You, jungkook and jaehyun continued walking when suddenly jaehyun was pulled away from your group. 
“Oh! Yn-ssi! It’s been a while.” A deep voice said as you look up to see the person. You smiled.
“Hey Johnny, you just gonna steal him away? That’s rude.” You joked as the man beside you chuckled. Johnny shook his head.
“I mean, if you don’t mind? But my friends wanted to hangout with this old pal of ours. Sooo…I’ll talk to you both in a bit!” Johnny said as he pulls jaehyun away from you and jungkook. You rolled your eyes and suddenly jungkook stood up.
“Since our dearest friend jaehyun ditched us, lemme introduce you to mine, yeah?” Jungkook asks you. You smiled and nodded your head, following his steps. You two walk to the kitchen, where all the booze stay at. Jungkook swiftly patted your shoulder.
“Taehyung, jimin, meet ynrkive.” He says as the blonde male, taehyung, accidentally spits out his beer. The short dark haired male, jimin, widened his eyes as he looks at you.
“Holy shit, you guys actually met in real life…” jimin says as he takes a sip from his cup. You raised a brow as you look at his choking friend. Jungkook shook his head.
“They know about our twitter drama.” He explains as you nodded your head. Taehyung finally calms down and smile shyly.
“Sooo, are we just gonna call you from your twitter handle or what?” He asks. You chuckled and introduced yourself to them. You didn’t expect jungkook’s friends to be like this. You thought they would be more obnoxious like the other frats in the building. But surprisingly, they ere pleasant to talk to. As your group converse about college life, you saw someone familiar from the corner of your eye. You look over your shoulder and saw minghao. You smiled softly. You tell your new founded peers that you’re going to talk to someone real quick as you walk towards minghao, not noticing the figure beside him. You called out his name and his gaze went towards you. He smiles as you wave at him. 
“Hey, I didn’t know parties were your thing.” You said as he rubs his neck.
“I also thought parties weren’t your thing, but you’re here…I’m getting deja vu.” He chuckles. You laughed as you admiringly smile at him. Suddenly a cough broke you and minghao’s gaze from each other. The figure beside him clicked her tongue as she looks at you. You widen your eyes and introduce yourself.
“Oh, hi! I’m yn! I’m minghao’s friend.” You said as the girl only looked you up and down. 
“Sumin…hm, myungho, we should get something to drink.” Sumin says as she rubs minghao’s arm, which she was holding on to her dear life. You eyes her and minghao, noticing minghao’s uncomfortable look. 
“You okay?” You ask minghao, almost in whisper. Unfortunately, Sumin heard you. She rolled her eyes at you.
“He’s more than okay. Babe, come on.” She says to minghao as they start walking away. You watched Minghao’s walking figure as you walk back to jungkook, taehyung and jimin. The three males looked at you.
“You know sumin?” Taehyung asked you. You didn’t notice that they were watching you the whole time. You shook your head no.
“No, but I think she’s friends with minghao…my friend over there.” You said, pointing at their direction. Jungkook raised a brow. 
“Ohh…that’s surprising, Myungho isn’t the type of person to be friends with someone like sumin.” Jungkook stated. You looked at him.
“You’re friends with Minghao?” You asked. He nodded his head. You heard Jimin hum beside Taehyung.
“That’s true, Myungho wouldn’t hang around people like Sumin, I mean everyone knows she’s just full of botox, nothing wrong with that but that’s literally her only personality…is he alright?” Jimin asks in concern. You shrug your shoulders.
“I think so…I mean Sumin did say he’s alright.” You said, worry evident in your tone. As the four of you were talking, you all suddenly hear screams from outside. Jungkook raised his head.
“Oh, I think they’re playing beer pong.” He says as he basically drags you three outside. There you saw your stolen friend, jaehyun, and the thief, Johnny, along with other frats having a chaotic pong session. Jungkook groaned.
“How come they didn’t call me out to play with them!” Jungkook in an exasperation sigh. Taehyung laughed.
“Even if they did, you’re pretty bad at beer pong, surprisingly.” Jimin said, earning groan from his friend. As they were bickering, you watched the game go on as you see minghao being pushed by his friends in front of the table. He started playing against one of the frat members and successfully won the game. You watch them cheer him on. As you were watching you see Sumin hugging him and pulling into a kiss. You paled. They’re together? 
You watch her place her lips on him as the cheers even roared louder. Minghao’s back turned to you and you saw Sumin’s gaze on you, her lips still on him. Your gaze became harsher as time stops for you. You suddenly felt a tap on your shoulder. You instinctively gave the person a glare, not realizing it was jungkook. Your gaze softens at his figure. He looked at you in concern. 
“If looks could kill, you would’ve killed me right here. You okay?” He asks you. You nodded as you look back at minghao and sumin, who now was joining the cheers. You shook your head.
“I need to go to the bathroom.” You excused yourself. Jungkook looked at you in concern as you walk past Taehyung and Jimin, asking you if you were okay. You swiftly walk past them as your steps lead you to the bathroom. You accidentally bumped into someone because of your racing thought. You briefly looked at the person and apologized. You reached the bathroom and closed the door. You looked at yourself in the mirror and closed your eyes tightly.
“Why are you being jealous? You’re just a friend…It’s just a crush, nothing else.” You consoled yourself. You finally opened your eyes and looked at yourself. You didn’t even notice you were crying. You wipe off your tears and sighed.
“Stupid fucking feelings…I should’ve known he just sees me as a friend. I’m such a wuss.” You whispered quietly. After a few more minutes in a bathroom calming yourself down, you finally opened the bathroom door, ready to leave, when you were met by Sumin. You flinched in surprise.
“Took you long enough to come out, were you taking a shit?” Sumin laughed as she pushed you back in the bathroom. You looked into her eyes, trying to maintain your composure. 
“‘Was just a bit drunk, needed to calm down.” You lied. Sure you were a bit tipsy from the beer, but you were pretty sober. Sumin looked you up and down. She smirked.
“You know, you should get away from Myungho.” She says suddenly. You widened your eyes.
“What? He’s my friend.” You said to her. She only glanced back at the door.
“Well, I’m pretty sure you’re familiar with girl code…and you know, me and myungho are basically together.” She simply said. Unknowingly to you, you were oblivious to her tone. You pondered for a moment. Were you accidentally trying to home wreck a relationship? But you didn’t do anything wrong, did you? You were in your thoughts when Sumin suddenly walked closer to you.
“But then again, I’m not scared he’s going to cheat on me with…someone like you. I mean, just look at yourself.” She says, envy in her tone. You suddenly look up at her with confusion in your face.
“Okay, I can respect your relationship with him whatsoever, but what I look like is nothing of your concern. Just because I don’t drown myself in fillers and botox doesn’t mean I am more inferior than you.” Now you’ve done it. You only heard it from Jimin, you didn’t mean to actually say it in front of her face. You gulped nervously as she looks at you in rage. Why was she even mad at you in the first place? You don’t know this girl! 
“Whatever, but Myungho will never love a girl like you. He’s basically doing charity work if he starts dating you. I mean, it’s always looks over personality.” She says as she leaves the bathroom. As you watch her leaving figure, you instantly sobbed in your hands. Were you really that…ugly? You never really cared about your appearance. You were content with how you look. You cried silently, not noticing another figure coming in the bathroom. You heard their footsteps as you wipe your tears away, walking away.
“Sorry, just too drunk right now.” You lied, but you were stopped in your tracks. What’s up with people just stopping you from doing what you wanted to do tonight?
“I’m so sorry for leaving you behind.” You heard the person say as they hug you tightly. You look up and see Jaehyun. You shook your head as he releases you from his grip. He looked at you in concern. 
“I knew something was wrong when you left, are you okay?” You heard behind him. You saw Jungkook also looking at you in concern. You looked at the both of them and sighed. 
‘I’m…okay. Jaehyun, I’m going home.” You said to him. He looks at you as you walk away. Yo heard him bid his goodbyes to Jungkook as he follows you outside. He opened his car door for you as you two sit inside. You averted your gaze away from him as you look out the window. Jaehyun sighed.
“Are you sure everything’s alright? You know you can talk to me about it-”
“Just drop it, Jaehyun. I’m alright.” You said harshly. He sighs and nod his head, driving you back to your dorm. The ride was silent. Finally arriving at your dorm, he stopped you from getting out. You looked at him.
“Sumin didn’t do anything to you, did she? I saw her leaving the bathroom before I went to see you.” He asks. You only averted your gaze. From the silent treatment, he got his answer. He lets you go and told you to be safe and have a good night. You bid your goodbyes to him as you walk inside your dorm. Reaching your room, you were greeted by a tired Judie, who you can assume just finished studying. She smiles at you softly.
“How was your first frat party?” She asks as you go in the bathroom to take off your makeup. You washed off your face and went back in your shared room. You hummed.
“It’s okay.” You simply replied. Judie opened an eye, as she was already laying down on her bed.
“Just okay? Well, did you see your one and only minghao?” She teases you. You stiffened. You were not in the mood to think about him, or else you’ll just get reminded of Sumin. You whispered something under your breath, judie seemed to catch it.
“What was that?” She asks you again.
“Forget him.” Judie now shot up from her bed. 
“What? Did he do something bad to you? Did he try to touch you in any way? Did he-” 
“Just forget him, Judie. Such a waste of time.” You said as you tell your friend goodnight. Judie stayed on her bed just staring at your laying figure. She sighs and laid back in bed. She’s definitely going to ask Jaehyun what had happened.

Who would you like to see on BFQOTY that has never made an appearance before?
okay i always take these kinds of asks too seriously but pls bare with me!!
when it comes to panel shows there is a spectrum of preparation: on the far left is a show like mock the week, where literally everything apart from a very smol amount of relevant banter is pre-prepared by the panel (they're given the news stories & scenes we'd like to see ahead of time, the standup categories are chosen around their pre-written bits, and so on); and on the other end of that spectrum is a show like big fat quiz, where the only thing you really prepare is potentially a team name. so — to answer this question i'm thinking about people who are very willing and very good at joining in, people who will comfortably banter with jimmy, people who don't always wait their turn to speak (which works better on a show like, say, 8 out of 10 cats). obviously jimmy throws to each team whilst the teams' answers are being revealed, but for the show to really succeed you need a lot more chat and goofing around and camaraderie than that — so who are some of these confident, friendly, funny people?
well let's get this out of the way we need victoria on bfq right? it helps a lot she's irl pals with jimmy so their dynamic is very comfy and she would probably have so much to say about the news or even admonishing the amount of tiktok-related questions LMAO it's great to imagine her with david but also what about team victoria and lee mack?? THE PEOPLE NEED TO SEE IT
nicola coughlan, graham norton, alan cumming, catherine tate (omg catherine and lee...please GOD...), huge davies, get me a doctor let's go jodie whittaker baybay or our man ncuti, would love to see some drag queens like miss lawrence chaney and the viv of course but there are sooo many amazing uk drag stars, kathy burke, ed gamble, morgana robinson, maggie aderin-pocock
get me my man. joe wilkinson. put him with roisin and one white onion
fuck it go big or go home: jennifer saunders and joanna lumley, fry and laurie(!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!), tennant and sheen (or tennant and tennant frankly georgia ily), the mighty boosh???
wildcard answer jordan north and william hanson? is that just me? i know jordan has done celeb juice a few times and he was great but i also know in my soul william would be fucking good on a panel show, and their friendship is too sweet
cheating but i'd love to see guz khan back on but with a different partner? i fockin love sarah but strategically speaking for lulz imo that year i think it should have ben judi & guz and sarah & jonathan. i understand wanting to change it up and give us new kinds of teams but i don't think those were the people to do it with. also bring back charlie brooker i have charlie brooker withdrawals........ (charlie on wilty in a couple weeks!!! ahhh!!!)
i'd love to see so many people!!! okay i am done with the longest response ever (do you guys ever read these like 'girl just answer the question')! what about you?? who do you want?

Propaganda
Machiko Kyō (Rashomon, Floating Weeds, Older Brother Younger Sister)— Considered an early sex symbol in Japanese cinema. Also just an ethereal beauty who can also go feral/unhinged in a glorious way.
Judy Garland (Meet Me In St. Louis, A Star is Born, Summer Stock)— Judy is the GOAT when it comes to classic movie musicals. The voice of an angel who deserved so much better than she got. She can sing she can dance she can act she's a triple threat. Though she had a turbulent personal life (her treatment as a child star by the studio system makes me mad as hell like Louis b Mayer fight me ((she was made to believe that she was physically unattractive by the constant criticism of film executives who made her feel ugly and who manipulated her onscreen appearance by capping her teeth and using discs in her nose to change its shape and Mayer called her "my little hunchback" like imagine hearing that as a child and not having damage)) she always goddamn delivered on screen and in any performance she gave. She began in vaudeville performing with her sisters and was signed to MGM at 13. Starting out in supporting parts especially paired with mickey Rooney in a bunch of films (she's the best part tbh) she eventually transferred to the lead role. She is best known for her starring role in movie musicals like the iconic Wizard of Oz (somewhere over the rainbow still hits hard and is ranked the top film song of all time), meet me in St. Louis (Judy singing have your self a merry little Christmas brings tears to the eyes she is that powerful), the Harvey girls (she looks like a technicolor dream and sings a catchy af song about trains), Easter parade ( dancing and singing with Fred Astaire), for me and my gal, the pirate, and summer stock ( with pal Gene Kelly who she helped when he was starting out and he helped her when she was struggling). But she also does non- singing just as well like the clock ( her first movie where she sings no songs and is an underrated ww2 era romance), her Oscar nominated a star is born ( like the man that got away she put her whole soul in that and I have beef with the fact she lost to grace kelly ((whom I love but like still not even her best work)), and judgement at Nuremberg (a courtroom drama about the nazi war criminal trials). Outside of film she made concert appearances to record-breaking audiences, released 8 studio albums, and had her own Emmy-nominated tv series. She was the youngest (39) and first female recipient of the Cecil B DeMille award for lifetime achievement in the film industry. Girl was a lifelong democrat and was a financial and moral supporter of many causes including the civil rights movement (she was at the March on Washington and held a press conference to protest the 16th street Baptist church bombings). She was a friend of the Kennedy family and would call jfk weekly often ending the calls by singing the first few lines of somewhere over the rainbow (she thought of them as Gemini twins).She was a member of the committee for the first amendment which was formed in response to the HUAC investigations. Though she died far too young and tragically she remains an icon for her work and her life. As a girl who didn't feel like i was as pretty as everyone else I have always felt a connection to Judy and I just really love her.
This is round 3 of the tournament. All other polls in this bracket can be found here. Please reblog with further support of your beloved hot sexy vintage woman.

Judy:
Tumblr media
Judy's voice alone qualifies her for at least top ten hottest HOT VINTAGE MOVIE WOMEN. She was a truly incredible swing singer, with a stunning voice on top of her technique. Her short dark hair looked incredible in just about any style. Have I mentioned her swagger? I can’t do it justice with words. She had swagger. She was funny as hell, and clever too. Incredibly charming and cool. I adore her.

Her eyes, her voice have bewitched me

I mean how can you beat the one and only Judy? She's beautiful, her smile is contagious, the way she sings with her whole body. You can't help but love her.
