New York Magazine's Vulture Festival is Back with Hulu's "The Great" with "The Great-est Panel You Ever Seen" with Elle Fanning & Nicholas Hoult.

Now that Bridgerton is already established, here's something that fans of Hulu's "The Great" already know, "The Great" is a naughty nugget of eye candy treat based on the tumultuous arranged marriage between Russia's Catherine the Great and the mercurial Emperor Peter.  In other words, it's a period costume comedy of a "f*ck & fight" based on gender roles and gender power in ruling a nation.

Nicholas went on how important food is in "The Great" as a subtle passive-aggressive form of mental torture and how decadent cuisine represents the Russian court.

Due to the long hours under the hot lights, Elle was disappointed they had to use fake ice cream made out of lard, so they won't melt but craft service did gave her real ice cream as relief to a long day and night of shooting the opulent comedy.

Both Elle and Nicholas discussed about the scrumptious costumes and how they affect their acting and movement.

Elle did say, even during the Rococo Period when Catherine was pregnant enough to give her a more comfortable Empire higher, looser waist line, women at the time still have to wear a corset since bras weren't invented yet.  Women back then, still have to wear corsets to give them shape.

As any "The Great" fans know, the gender-dependent period costumes form the basis of the naughty sex jokes, sexual frustrations, and gender power plays running this married couple.

Nicholas mentioned cunnilingus in an episode that Vulture Festival aired during the panel.  Even Elle blushed when she found out that her mom is a big fan of the show and loves it when the two protagonists "f&ck & fight."  That's the dynamics of the show.

Both Elle and Nicholas also talked about the importance of historical makeup plays in the series.

In the effort to pale their complexion to show that these elites don't do manual labor out in the sun, people wore mercury foundation that eats away at the skin.  To hide the mercury scars, the actors said that people have to wear black velvet decorative patches as fancy faux moles.

"The Great" is a juicy, decadent treat.

Puma Blue is Gen-Z's Relaxing Chill Pill.

 By Laura Medina

In the wake of the Travis Scott's Astroworld Festival chaotic tragedy, Jacob Allen aka Puma Blue, proves that there's more to Gen-Z music scene than Travis Scott.

Puma Blue's El Rey Theater concert was civilized and chilled.

The mostly Gen-Z audience was just gently grooving and swaying to Puma Blue's easy chords, like soft, rolling waves.

The audience wasn't seeking fist-pumping beats, no mosh pits.  More than anything, they view Puma Blue as a respite from all that chaotic mess that dominated Astroworld Festival.

Puma Blue's concert was well-contained then the audience returned the respect back.

Puma Blue proves there's more to Gen-Z than uncontrolled energy.  He was peaceful where Gen-Z use him to get their soul back.

A gentle nod is all you need.

 By Laura Medina

Held in the historical Bradbury Building, infamously known as the "Blade Runner" building, that Eighties New Wave Noir Sci-Fi Thriller, it's fitting that Disco Dining Club did a "Blade Runner" theme dinner is influenced by what people in the near future are doing to eat and what utensils are going to be used, that they set the new table setting...

With Asian cuisine accepted as the norm, the Blade Runner dinner started with the crowd-pleasing fried Pork and Shrimp dumplings...

The main entree is another crowd-pleasing Crab Sesame Ramen Noodles...

This futurist Black Sesame Panna Cotta is more a refreshing palette cleanser than a finishing sweet note, denoting that overly sugary sweet desserts, are a thing of the past.

Disco Dining Club's "Blade Runner" themed Halloween feast is more treat than trick.

Eighties' New Wave "Blade Runner" pole dancers provided entertainment.

The night finished with a futurist Asian opera singer/drag performer.

All treats, no tricks, with Disco Dining Club.

The Hu, Rock Transcend Culture, Borders, Mountains, and Oceans. It's the Rock Spirit That Counts.

 By Laura Medina

True and real spirit of Rock knows no color, face, border, nationality, language, or culture.

It's the exuberance, the spirit, and the soul that pours out of the pores, from within.

In a short five years, The Hu, Mongolian for "Human Being," they've proven they're Rock while incorporating traditional Mongolian mountain throat singing while showing traditional Mongolian horse fiddle, the two-string Mongolian guitar, and Jaw Harp as contemporary instruments as electric Horse Fiddle and electric Mongolian guitar, just as powerful and electrifying as any electric Western guitar and bass.

Having that true Rock spirit does not lie and can't be faked.

In a short but intense five years, The Hu has gained such a loyal fan following, that a Californian fan had followed them to their two-nights concert in Paris.  That's hard core.

What's really cool, The Hu aren't cultural or racial or ethnic stereotypes in order to promote Mongolian culture.  The Hu are real, showing and promoting current and real Mongolian interests, incorporating and updating traditional Mongolian music and culture for the 21st-century. Yes, Mongolians love Rock then they successfully incorporate it with traditional Mongolian instruments and throat singing.  Who would had thought the guttural Mongolian throat singing would be a great fit for Rock and Heavy Metal?

If The Hu represents today's contemporary Mongolia, doing collaborations with today's highly esteemed rockers, such as Papa Roach,...

Then, The Hu providing songs and soundtrack to Star Wars: Jedi, Fallen Order, shows them as the future of Rock transcending across the universe, planets, space, and time.

True rock fans don't give a damn about image or looks; and they know a poser, when they see one.

The Hu aren't posers.  Because of that, their Rock spirit may come on as strong to the pop,  the uninitiated, ignorant, and uninterested.  But, true Rockers can't be fooled.  They know the real deal when they sense it.

The Hu, remember is Mongolian for "Human Being," is the real deal; and they have a legion of rocker fans that span globally.

The Hu is pure Rock spirit.
