Let’s take a look at the things in entertainment that the D@2 bloggers loved most in the month of May!

Benutty

Music Album – Janelle Monae’s The ArchAndroid (Suites II & III)
There’s no way a better album is going to come out this year. Janelle has taken music to a level it hasn’t been in a long time, creating a concept album and weaving within it a cohesive message of liberation, adventure, and love. The music finds inspiration in R&B funk like Outkast’s The Love Below with a good mix of upbeat, catchy songs and tender ballads. So good, I really can’t stop listening to it.

TV Season Finale – Brothers & Sisters
Ever the tearjerker, B&S brought the action this season with their finale. A lot of great new storylines were introduced right at the end while at the same time ending the boring ones they’ve been playing around with for a while. I don’t understand how everyone doesn’t watch this show because it is seriously one of the best out there! Hello it has everyone — the wife from Mrs. Doubtfire, Brenda from Six Feet Under, and Ally McBeal! And THREE gay characters!! Loves. Balthazar Getty is hot.

Music Video – Kylie Minogue’s All the Lovers
Um. So this officially came out on the last day of May, but huhhnns it’s so good. Considering her lackluster album art, Kylie needed a good video. And during a time in music when everyone is stressing out over who is copying who, she brings something fresh to her own style — an extravagantly gay style that has worked well for her for the past two decades. Anthill human orgy anyone? Can’t wait for the album.

D@2 Post – Lost and Found
I have to admit I really enjoyed setting up Shawnito on this one! It was definitely the funnest post for me to write. He sent me this picture and tried to tell me it was of Gary’s panties, but little did he know I would turn it back around on him! Fool/loves.

Nick

TV Character  – Brittany on Glee
Seriously though… she could be one of the greatest characters on TV ever.  I’m so glad that she is going to be a regular next season because we need to see more!  I’m also curious to see what sort of songs she is going to sing.

TV Finale – Lost
I know a lot of people were unhappy with the way Lost ended but I thought it was an amazing ending.  Sure a lot of questions were unanswered, but I think as we all re-watch the series there will be plenty of clues that can lead us to answer those questions ourselves.   The hyperlink above is a link to an article about what Lost is about… well it’s one persons view of it, but I like it… so yea.

iPhone App – Knocking Video
Easily the D@2 Crew’s favorite app of the month.   Benutty especially loved this app while he was visiting New York City.  Just look at this screen shot I took on my iPhone during one of his disgusting knocking sessions.

D@2 Post – Oh Boy!
Classic Gary Jr.  Gary Jr. and Benutty are obsessed with pooping in public, and this makes for a lot of good stories.

Commercial – Weber’s BBQ Dance Off
When this stupid commercial comes on, I totally groove out. I can’t help it. Weber made a summer classic. I want to BBQ!

Music – Persephone’s Bees – Paper Plane
Not my favorite band ever but for some reason I like this video and to me, music this month was lacking. I basically stuck to my old standards. This was the only new thing to add to it. Oh and a little Jóhann Jóhannsson too. His music is very quiet, 10 minute long diddies that fill up space and take you on journeys almost like Sigur Ros and the like. Love it. Oh cuz he’s Icelandic! Iceland makes the craziest musicians. Sorry Bjork.

TV – American Idol Finale
It was an awful finale and Lee was awful but so was Crystal. I only loved it because I won the Benutty Family Pool and took a cool $110 from them when they weren’t looking. Thanks for the victory! xoxo
