We think…this could be a little spooky!!!
And we’re hoping this will help with the return of the Nike Krueger, which we didn’t get a chance to buy the first time around!

After just hanging up the phone with our gal pal, Brittany Mason, Miss Indiana USA 2008 and the US representative for Miss World 2009, Alex and I were talking about how we, through Brittany, have so quickly been introduced to the world of pageants! And obviously, if you’ve been watching and reading, you know by now that we love beauty pageants and beauty queens! But having watched Miss South Carolina/Miss Teen 2007, Caitlin Upton, this week on Chelsea Lately…we’re wondering, to what extent will some pageant queens go to attain fame? Or are they really just this outlandish or stupid? To Miss Upton, her beauty way surpasses her brain…and as one of my friends used to say, “If I went to a brain surgeon and he was gorgeous, I’d walk out of his office!”, Implying that we get brains or we get beauty, but we don’t get both. Well, the boys of raannt did…But…In case you forgot the ridiculous nature of Caitlin’s answer during her interview, here you go! We’re just wondering if she is really this dumb or if she gave this response to make sure she was remembered before her move to LA where she is now pursuing an acting career?

And then of course there is the bold and beautiful answer from Miss California, Carrie Prejean, where she responds to Perez Hilton’s question about gay marriage.
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NcQf1WQ3SvY]
We appreciate your honesty Carrie, but really? We’re wondering if you knew who you were responding to or who had designed that gown or bleached your hair. But really, the clip is so overplayed that now, with a possible political future in her midst, we’re wondering if she planned the whole thing just to get her name secured in the limelight and have a career future in place outside the pageant circuit?
Especially, since she is now being linked to Ms. Sarah Palin, who by the way, happened to be a beauty queen herself…interesting…see here!

Of course, there is Rachel Smith, the Miss USA winner who competed in the Miss Universe pageant, who fell and was, well…forgotten…

And now, Miss Virginia 2008, Tara Wheeler, has shaved her head in an effort to raise money for pediatric cancer, which we think is quite amazing, but also newsworthy and attention grabbing!
So we guess the moral to the story is if you’re going to fall or foul…make sure you have a plan, and at this rate…stupid is looking pretty good!

Last night, after partying it up with our friend’s Molly, CoCo, Smalls and Ruby, playing a few rounds of “What the Fuck?”, we headed over to the Blu Martini for their 6th Anniversary Party. When we pulled up, we could barely find a parking place because it was so incredibly packed. Inside, the music exploded over our heads as soon as we walked in the door. DJ Cool Hand Lex directed the vibe of the dance floor, which just so happened to be every inch of space in the bar/restaurant since people were dancing everywhere!
We ordered some drinks and waited for our friends to arrive. At first, we weren’t sure it was going to be that much fun because there weren’t that many people we knew and it seemed like kind of an older crowd, but literally within minutes, The Blu Martini changed and developed into the best time we had had in weeks, making it everything worthy of 6 years in business!
And actually…it’s probably just easier to understand the vibe, from all of the pictures we took! If you weren’t there…we wish you had been!
We would like to congratulate Bill Pritt on his amazing 6 years in business and wish him many, many more…He is always so courteous to us and always makes us feel at home! And it was awesome to meet his mom who also came out to enjoy the festivities…
Ohhhhhhhh….and we couldn’t possibly forget to send a SEXY BITCH SALUTE out to our Fisher’s Mom’s Group who danced the night away next to us the entire night! Thanks Fita for being such a great babysitter to your friend! She owes you a dinner and a night at The Conrad! (We were going to include pictures…but we couldn’t be that cruel and we were happy you gals were having such a great time!) But from now on…well let’s just say…
Be careful…we might just catch you curled up in a corner…or pumping the air!!!

Several months ago, we attended Paul Van Dyk at Talbott Street. If you missed it, or haven’t seen him in another city on his international tour…you missed an incredible performance.
What was even more impressive to us, was the spinning of local legend DJ Jackola, in the side room at Talbott Street during the Paul Van Dyk performance. We happened into the side room, trying to find some cool air, when we found what appeared to be twenty to thirty old school rave kids tearing it up on the dance floor to DJ Jackola.
His spin was HAPPY, soul-induced freedom signature flows of polished vibe! We became instant fans and were hoping to hear him at local venues where he could draw larger crowds. Well…
Now we can! On Sunday, September 27th, DJ Jackola will be guest DJ’ing at The Vogue’s alternative dance night, Propaganda. Doors open at 9pm and admission is $3.
If you haven’t seen him, let us just say that $3 is a contribution to the beat driven gift DJ Jackola is bestowing upon Indianapolis.
Thanks buddy…we love ya!
We hope to see you there!

“God Hates Fags”, or apparently so…according to the catch phrase of Westboro Baptist Church in Topeka, Kansas, lead by anti-gay demonstrator Fred Phelps. The group, who are well known for their protests and rallies against just about anything…hmmm…gay, will be protesting at North Central High School today in reaction to the students production of The Laramie Project, a play depicting the killing and aftermath of Matthew Shepard, a young, Wyoming student who was tortured and murdered because he was gay, bringing awareness of hate crimes to our country, in 1998.
Since we have started raannt, we have experienced nothing but absolute acceptance and support from the straight community of Indianapolis. So, to show our support of our unity, The Boys of raannt would like to extend a welcome to Fred Phelps and his posse and invite you out for a night on the town, our style…our treat! But be forewarned…the night might get a little crazy!!!
We thought we could start off with sushi, followed up by martini’s at Scholar’s Inn or 45 Degrees. We were going to take you to Broad Ripple afterwards, but by the looks of your constant cowboy hat and adoration for leather and ruggedness we thought maybe we would head over to the 501 leather bar? It’s your pick, but as the self-proclaimed hosts of Indy, we would like to make you feel welcome and have as good of a time as we do every time we go out…Oh! And maybe we could run over to Saks and Crate and Barrel and show you our wedding registry so you can pick out our gift!
And to everyone else, if you see us out tonight, tip your hat, and do a little dance…thank God Thursday’s are known for half-price drinks…
(If you happen to be in the area of North Central today, we greatly encourage you to blast your Lady GaGa, Britney Spears or Whitney Houston…those folks are gonna be God-forsaken bored in all that rain!…They need to hear you loud so they can dance!!!)
For more information visit The Bilerico Project.
Remember…we just like to have fun! Sushi, martinis…a little dancing? Who could turn that down!
Can’t wait to hear from you Fred!

Tonight, we went to The Blu Martini for our friend, Ali Chapman’s, premier party for her television appearance on “The Secret Lives of Women” on the WE Television Network. While there, we hung out with Ali and talked to her mother and some of her other friends. In the background on the large, flat screen televisions, played the television show, with Ali presenting her life story intersected with the stories of two other, little women.
After speaking with Ali’s mother for a few minutes, she informed us that Ali had been receiving some international interest about her story and hopefully would be giving some interviews in the next few weeks. “Maybe I’ll get a movie deal after all.” Ali said. And she probably will!
On our way home, Alex and I discussed how even though Ali is little, she doesn’t allow her size to be an obstacle to her achieving her dreams. In fact, she seems to be utilizing it to be successful. It’s been a long time since I first met Ali, but I can honestly say now that for the first time tonight, standing in The Blu Martini, surrounded by her family and friends, her image displayed on television screens all around me, I realized that Ali is a true inspiration to me. And if she can accomplish her dreams, then all of us can. And that is the secret to her success…never giving up!
For more information about Ali or for booking information contact her manager Johnny at A Little Entertainment.
Congrats Ali…We’re proud of you babe!

When we are out…people constantly ask us our opinion about restaurants, books, music, movies…just about anything pop culture related…So we decided we would have a weekly SEXY LIST which identifies what we think are the most blazing and blistering pieces of what’s currently out there! We hope you enjoy the premier of this column and take us up on some of our suggestions…
The boys of MGMT croon their way through Californian teen angst driven lounge sensuality on their album “Time to Pretend”…
Dan Brown’s The Lost Symbol is just as good, if not better, than his past books…And Ellen Hopkin captures the agony of Meth Amphetamine in her teen diary GLASS.
And the new, seat grabbing, television show The Beautiful Life…

Last Saturday…we weren’t really sure what to do with ourselves. We had received several invitations, but decided to start our evening off at Bella Vita, where our friends, Silver Carpet Couple, Promoter Bryan Schmidt and his girlfriend, I.U. Doctorate student Melissa Elrod, had secured a cabana. It was an amazing, early fall evening out at Geist, and Bella Vita was packed. Most of the people we mingled with had plans to attend Oranje after leaving Bella Vita, and after a quick trip through Broad Ripple, we planned to run down to Oranje too.
Oranje…as described by their website, “is a contemporary arts and music event showcasing progressive artists and musicians”. For more information, visit their website at: Oranje…Indulge Your Senses. We never made it there that night, due to our amazing time in Broad Ripple, but we definitely plan to attend and review their next event! We hear they’re unbelievable!
While at Bella Vita, Bryan introduced us to Dave Smiley, host of WZPL’s Z99.5’s Smiley Morning Show. Dave was absolutely genuine and hilarious and chatted with us for several minutes, even possibly inviting us on some morning, which, by the way, we would love to take you up on that offer. Needless to say, we’re introduced everyday to Indy “celebs”, but none as truly authentic and kind as Dave! A true asset to Indianapolis. You can follow him on twitter HERE! And of course, he can be heard every weekday morning from 5am-10am…Damn Dave! If you do ever invite us on…book us late…NOT morning guys!
We also had the pleasure of being introduced to Kim Iverson, who hosts her national radio show, “Your Time with Kim Iverson“, which airs weekdays 7pm-midnight. We only spoke with her for a few minutes because she was running out to catch a plane back to Austin, but it was fun to hear about her stay in Indy! We hope you enjoyed it Kim! Come back soon and next time…call us!
After Bella Vita, we met up with our friend Ali Chapman and her manager Johnny at The Upper Room. I had previously been asked earlier in the day by an old friend, who was celebrating a friend’s birthday, where they could go that was sexy, sensual and loungey? Uhhh…The Upper Room should have these three words as the definition on their flier. We had such a great time visiting with our friends, Melissa and Bryan in toe, dancing the entire time we were there! We had to admit we had never been there before…but we’re seriously considering it as a New Year’s option…or at least, early night option. The Upper Room is located at the top of the stairs on top of The Broad Ripple Steak House. As stated on their website…The Upper Room is one of “the best kept secrets in town”!
Next we headed down to Landsharks. Broad Ripple is always busy, but Saturday seemed to be busier than usual. And we bumped into so many gay friends that we began to understand why they’re not packing them in downtown anymore. Anyway, Landsharks has completely upscaled their establishment, now mixing a thunderous dance floor, still overseen by their gorgeous, beat driven go-go dancers…
one of which, Justine, was nice enough to stop and talk to us for a few minutes, before she went back to conducting the dance floor. The back of Landsharks has been remodeled and now holds a VIP section, complete with ambient, red lighting and private booths. We bumped into Darren Block, owner of Landsharks, and his exquisitely beautiful wife Sky, who both seemed to be having a blast, surrounded by tons of friends. Strange to find out that Darren and I had gone to high school together and I was extremely impressed, having seen the lack of reinvention of other clubs in Indy, to see what he had done with Landsharks since they had opened many years ago. Literally, it does not even seem like the same bar…it has been transformed! For more information…see their website HERE.
We had such a great time on Saturday, trying out new places and visiting some of our old haunts, welcomed with absolute open arms and generosity, that it made us question why we continue to return to some of the same establishments that don’t know how to treat their patrons like VIP, always…Kudos to Bella Vita, The Upper Room and Landsharks for giving us an amazingly, pleasurable evening…And don’t forget to come out and see Ali Chapman on Tuesday at The Blue Martini for the premier of her television show on the WE network! It all starts at 9:30…
And on a side note…we were on the phone this morning with Kendra Wilkinson‘s manager, welcoming her to Indy, and hopefully setting up a dinner date where we can show her there’s more to Indy than corn on the cob!!!
