The boys of raannt are holding open call auditions for go-go dancers and an “emcee” for our upcoming event “TEASE” which will be a recurring gay-oriented theme event at Landsharks in Broadripple. You do not need to be gay to audition or be part of our event. We already have several people interested in these positions but we wanted to extend the invitation to everyone to make sure we find those that are really excited about starting something new in Indianapolis. For information or to send interest email us at raannt@gmail.com

These are PAID positions.

Dancers will NEED to be the following:
1. 21 Years of Age
2. Be able to dance to high-energy music
3. Be in great shape
4. Not be shy and be able to interact with the crowd.

We are looking for an emcee, who we had imagined as a drag queen/female impersonator, but are open to suggestions. This person should be a “character”…hilarious, not shy and willing to work well with direction. TOTAL PROFESSIONALISM ONLY!!! This is NOT a drag show!!!

The audition will be held at Landsharks in Broad Ripple (810 Broad Ripple Ave, 46220) on Wednesday 1/20/10 from 5-7 and the starting date will be on Monday 1/25/10. Details on the event will be talked about at the audition. If you are interested in either position, please shoot us a quick email explaining your interest. Picture and description of yourself would be great but really we’re just trying to get a count for the audition. If you’re auditioning for the position of the emcee, be prepared to come in costume.

Last night we decided to do something new and headed out to Cadillac Ranch, which recently opened in downtown Indianapolis. It was so freezing outside that we almost didn’t go, but we parked in the parking garage directly across the street and headed inside. Absolutely packed…and at first we couldn’t decide if it was a sports bar, restaurant, or what???

Cadillac Ranch defines itself as “an all-American bar and grill”. But walk about 10 feet in every different direction and you hear a different type of music and slapped right in the middle is an electric bull. Not really our type of thing, but it was hilarious and everyone around us was dancing it up…it was definitely drunk up in the Ranch! After making it through literally about 500 people, we finally found our way back to the VIP room or the black and white room as they referred to it.

The VIP section doesn’t really feel like it fits in Cadillac Ranch because it has a completely different feel than the rest of the bar. But we thought the decor was amazing and we had a great time. Our server Sarah and the security staff were awesome all night long…as was Hannah who arranged the VIP section for us in advance. We were entertaining family from Venezuela and it was interesting that they felt that the VIP section was much like many of the top bars in Caracas…Way to go folks! And the music was hot too, although it was mostly Top 40 stuff, they spun it differently and mixed in Pitbull and new mixes of Lady Gaga…A few words to the wise though!!! Do not, DO NOT, as the drunk, arguing couple below did, sit in someone else’s VIP booth. It’s tacky and uncalled for…especially after we asked you to move several times. If we had the room, we would have loved to invite you into our party, but we didn’t and we didn’t need you ruining our night with your love debacle! So just in case you forget, we wanted you to have a memory of the night…

And then on to the final “Crown of Rudeness” for the evening. All night long, this guy, or should we call him Stud, as he obviously thought of himself, took it upon himself to laugh at us and our good friend, even pointing and laughing at our friend. We’re not sure what was so funny, but we just wanted to send you a message stud, since you were SO friendly to the boys of raannt…as Brenda from “Scary Movie” so infamously said…”Yeah I got you! I got you on camera! You on candid camera now! You ain’t know ‘dat!” Seriously?

After Cadillac Ranch, we went over to Talbott Street and listened to DJ Deane and DJ Jared Curry battle it out on stage. Both sounded amazing and we had an awesome time dancing all night…We’ll leave you with some pics, enjoy and until next time…Eye’s Open, We’re Watching!!!

We were SO impressed with Lara and Gwen, the photographers for our fashion show from Pink Apple Photography that we wanted to announce an event they have planned just in time for Valentine’s Day!

On January 17th, Pink Apple Photography will be holding a one day, Boudoir Photography marathon at the Indigo Hotel on the northside of Indy. Make yourself SEXY, or let them make you sexy, and come out and visit for a one hour boudoir photography session…for you, her, him, both…or all of you!

Men, women, gay, straight, whatever…everyone is welcome!
For more information, visit Pink Apple Photography’s website.

This is all just too good to be true…and we couldn’t let it slide. We believe Cable network channel A&E MUST start a new series, titled “Celebrity Intervention”, in which they stop the absolutely insane behaviors of the stars we either adore or abhor. Top of our list today is Mariah Carey. For those of you who didn’t get a glimpse of acceptance speech yesterday, we thought we’d give you a little insight to the insanity…

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=setItyCfMcY]

And as we were reading the application for Intervention(yeah, there really is an application at A&E Television)we couldn’t stop laughing as we read the question, “Type of Compulsive Behavior” and “Frequency of Compulsive Behavior”. Well, for Kate Gosselin, that would appear to be every time she decides to walk into a beauty school to get the special of the week, as witnessed by her newest makeover on the cover of People Magazine…

Please, someone step in and help this poor girl out. And why…WHY, do we have to continue to see her face on the cover of People, when amazingly beautiful Carmen Ortega graces the cover of Black Men magazine(We LOVED the spread…gorgeous!) which can’t possibly sell nearly as many copies as People. But at least they know beauty when they see it, unlike People, who titles their article, “The Hedgehog is Dead”…Hilarious. Even going on to make a big deal out of the fact that Kate now has extensions. “Extensions” in italics, as if she were the first ever to weave it up! Kate…try wigs, they last much, much longer.

We just wanted to send a “Buona Fortuna” out to our girl Lis Crosby who will be leaving next week for several months in Italy. At only 23, Lis has already made a huge impact on Indy, through college athletics, awareness of depression and suicide prevention as well as modeling. In the past, Lis’ face could be seen all over Indy on billboards for Fairbanks Treatment Center and most recently she appeared to rave reviews as a model in our Andrew Christian underwear fashion show.

We wish Lis all the best and hope everyone can come out tonight for her party at The Ten. To read about her travels while she’s gone, follow her blog Italian Moonlight…

Arrivederci! Ci Mancherai!
