I have loved Joseph Gordon Levitt ever since he was a little girl on 3rd Rock from The Sun (yes I know he wasn’t really a little girl but he sure was pretty). On a scale of boys are icky to boys I would give my big lesbian card up for, he’s kind of the cream of the crop (no pun intended because that is disgusting).
I’ll be he could make us both feel like a natural woman.
Don’t judge me, but Sheryl Crow and Kid Rocks song, “Picture” is one of my very guiltiest of pleasures. It’s not because the song is bad – hell no, the song is fucking awesome – it’s because I play the shit out of it and will sing it at the top of my lungs on repeat in the shower and in the car whenever I get a chance.
Apparently I am not alone in my love of this song though, even some of my favorite celebs seem to love it, just ask Robin Pecknold (Fleet Foxes) and Joanna Newsom. I can barely imagine either of these musicians knowing who Kid Rock is, much less covering one of his songs. But, here it is, in all its glory –
Most people who know me would never guess that I have even heard of the Glen Campbell classic, “Rhinestone Cowboy”. It would’ve been very easy for me to miss this gem had it not been for a heavily intoxicated, small, older gay Asian man in sweatpants who chose this ballad as his karaoke song one fateful night.

So, I had to go to the YT to see if my little karaoke man had taped himself for the world to see. Sadly, I don’t think I’ve found him, but I did find this nice man instead:
There are some similarities between the two, particularly the way they pronounce “cowboyeeee” – which I LOVE.
Then there’s this guy, who has a great voice, but just looking at him I’d think he was about to break off into some Eminem or Jay-Z or worse, Backstreet Boys.
So, who is your favorite cowboy? I mean, besides this guy:
I’m as big a fan of liquor as the next blogger, but seeing what it’s done to Amy Winehouse’s memory makes me rethink some of those extra shots. Sure, she’s easy to pick on – but that’s half of her charm, no?
Our next battle of musical proportions is unlike what we will normally show because one of the singers is actually the original singer and the other is, well, a lip-synching midget tranny. So they’re basically starting off from the same launch pad.
Which queen will reign supreme?
Amy Winehouse?
Or La Pequena Amy Winehouse (pronounced, ween-chaous)
