La Goulue (Photos: 1885-90)

Louise Weber, born on July 12, 1866, was a pivotal figure in the realm of can-can. The dance style gained immense popularity, particularly in Paris during the late 19th century. Louise, better known as La Goulue, quickly became an iconic figure of her time.

La Goulue (The Glutton) earned her stagename when she "dried the bottoms of glasses in cabarets." This audacious behavior became synonymous with her fame, contributing to her larger-than-life persona. Her vibrant personality shone both on and off the stage, captivating audiences with her performances filled with enthusiasm and charme.

Legend has it that during a wild performance, La Goulue caught sight of the Prince of Wales nestled between two wheels, as he had come incognito to enjoy the evening at the Moulin Rouge. She allegedly called out: "Are you paying for the champagne? Is it you who invites or is it your mother who treats?"

Her style of fashion was characterized by flamboyant outfits, featuring voluminous petticoats, feathery embellishments, and captivating corsets. She had perfected her leg kicks to such an extent that she could score with calculated glimpses: The insatiable dancer had embroidered a small red heart into the crotch of her slip, which became a sensation and a coveted reward for the gentlemen of her choice.

One can only imagine the scandals, buzz and gossip that surrounded her during the Belle Époque in Paris.

This is awesome on so many levels.

Ladies and Gentlemen i present to you John Carpenter’s The Thing, as performed by the claymated, Antarctic cast of the hit children’s animation Pingu. Directed by Lee Hardcastle, in under 3 minutes. Noot, Noot.

Oh my fucking god.

[novella-november]

This is an absolutely amazing demonstration of skill and artistry with claymation, absolutely stunning, and absolutely as bloody, gorey, body-horror filled as the original film!

(aka, please do not click play if you cannot handle very graphic body horror and blood.)

If you can handle viewing the original 1970s “The Thing”, you should be able to handle this, and will be in for a treat!
