I made meme graphics! It was better than RL. Seriously, what is with it with this year? The crossover meme, on the other hand, looks likely to be AWESOME. So there's that.

( Nine more 230x600 graphics under the cut. )

Pretty simple, but I'm quite fond of them. I've missed out loads of fandoms, obviously, partly because of my dodgy connection, partly because of my braindead-ness tonight, but mainly because it was difficult finding pictures to fit the colour scheme. If you'd like your own variation, either on the pictures used above or with your own favourites, tell me and I'd be happy to whip one up for you so long as you provide the base pictures.

I’ve been tossing around the idea of doing a picspam of John Barrowman as Albin/Zaza in La Cage Aux Folles for some time now – ever since the promotional images started surfacing on the net, in fact. His run in the show has combined my current twin fangirl obsessions perfectly, even if he doesn’t make as good an Albin as Roger Allam. He’s good, yes, but Roger Allam pretty much achieved perfection.

Anyway. Like I said, I’ve been meaning to do the John-as-Zaza picspam for a while, and have finally been spurred into it to cheer an upset person on Journalfen’s Unfunnybusiness comm up. And while I’m at it, I figured, gorgeous men dressed as gorgeous women in sparkly outfits and with fantastic legs... like you can ever get enough, right? Plus, more people should know the genius that was the Roger Allam and Philip Quast run in La Cage. So this is not just the Johnspam, it’s the La Cage Aux Folles picspam!

I’ve divided it up into sections separated by LJ cuts, but be warned: THIS THING IS HUGE. Between the joint efforts of me, plum177 and niblick_iii, we must have acquired if not all the photos of Quast and Allam’s run on the net, then at least the majority. I haven’t used them all here, but I have used a hell of a lot.

And so, messieurs-dames, I give you... La Cage Aux Folles!



( First up, a few random Zazas that I’ve acquired photos of. Includes Grahame Norton, Douglas Hodge, the Zaza (and Georges) in the current Parisian production, and at least one whose name I don’t know. )

( Next, some shots of the supporting cast, all from various 2008/2009 London productions. Smaller section this time. )

( The first La Cages cast I ever saw, and the original reason for my obsession: Philip Quast as Georges and Roger Allam as Zaza. )

And that’s all for this post, folks! Second instalment: John Barrowman and the Cagelles!

So. I'm doing okay, but it appears that many of you are not doing so well -- and the news today is unfunny to the Nth degree. I should be being sensible and hardworking, but instead I'm celebrating being wide awake and cheerful by having fun.

I wants picspam, folks. Give me your pretty, your shiny, your awesome, your cute, your cool, and your smokin' hot. If you post a picture, I'll tag back with something of my own until we get bored. I'll show you mine, you show me yours. ;)
