FABTV: Saturday Night Fever Dance Scene

FabSugar — Sat, 27 Sep 2008 12:23:22 -0700

There's nothing sexier than a man with moves. Dance moves, that is. So many people cite Saturday Night Fever as a favorite movie, but really, it gets kinda depressing towards the end, no? I guess they're just as romanced by the disco and the dance as I am. I do have an obsession with disco - what I would give for one night at Studio 54. What can I say, I love the night life. But back to Travolta. I have tried to memorize this dance routine, it's a goodie. Travolta had the looks and the bravado, but he also had the flexibility and the funk. Let's face it people, he gets down and dirty. Doesn't this make you want to go disco dance the night away? Go!

Movies For Those Who Love to Dance (or Just Watch It on TV)

Do you feel that, too? That giant hole in your Wednesday and Thursday nights that used to be filled with glorious dance (and Nigel Lythgoe)? It's just one week since the finale, and I'm already suffering withdrawal from So You Think You Can Dance. My backup dance show, America's Best Dance Crew, is also nearly done. So I thought I'd share some of my favorite dance movies of all time to get me through these tough times. To see some of my picks, hit "Start." Photo courtesy of Fox

Buzz In: What's the Best Music Festival You've Been To?

BuzzSugar — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 10:30:55 -0800

The Coachella Music and Arts Festival just announced their 2010 lineup. Jay-Z, Muse, and Gorillaz are serving as headliners, but the list of supporting acts is just as noteworthy with everyone from LCD Soundsystem to The Dead Weather to Phoenix. The big event isn't until April 16-18, but I'm already trying to figure out if I can swing it.

I've been going to the Treasure Island Music Festival for the past three years, and it's only continued to get bigger and better over time. But Jay-Z? I would love to see him at Coachella. My personal favorite festival experience was when I caught him at All Points West last year. It rained for most of the day, so the entire crowd danced in the mud to Vampire Weekend and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. By the time Jay took the stage to close out the night, people went nuts. I was caked in dirt when it was all over - gross, but a blast.

How about you? What's been your favorite music festival?

Are You a Fan of Man Cleavage?

FabSugarUK — Mon, 07 Dec 2009 00:00:58 -0800

Men are getting a bit more experimental with their attire recently. It seems a classic suit or jeans and t-shirt are not enough options for the modern man and he is therefore trying out new styles! Man cleavage (or he-vage as I like to call it) is becoming increasingly popular on the red carpet with stars like Rupert Friend, Ed Westwick and Take That embracing the look. Ed took it to new extremes with his plunging neck top which exposes much of his chest (and hair). This isn't a new idea, Tom Jones has long been a pioneer and who can forget John Travolta in Saturday Night Fever? Are you a fan of man cleavage?

Word du Jour: Heavage

TresSugar — Fri, 04 Dec 2009 11:15:38 -0800

Deep v-neck shirts may make our top 10 worst male fashion offenses, but metrosexual men care not. They've now bared enough chest to create a new word: heavage. It's everything you fear - man cleavage, or when a low-cut or unbuttoned shirt reveals chest hair and pecs.

The look is inspired by the "unabashed machismo" of Latin-American men and the natural, more-rugged look of the '70s. Menswear historian (!) Robert Bryan called the decade "the golden age of male chest hair," citing John Travolta's plunging neckline in Saturday Night Fever as its zenith. "The convention back then was to skip enough shirt buttons to show off a thick forest of hair," he said, "perhaps topped with a gold medallion as a sign of virility."

Blech. Let's hope this word du jour becomes a word of yore stat!
