Hit Me With Your Best Shot: The Ultimate Guide To Karaoke Domination by Raina Lee

Archive for the ‘debauchery’ category

The sequence of events from last night: karaoke, dancing in a club, dancing in a VW Golf, dancing in another club, trampolining, singing Depeche Mode’s “But Not Tonight” in the dark warehouse with camping lights, dancing to Italian Eurodisco, and eating 99 cent pancakes at sunrise.

This kind of night only happens when there are no [...]

Topless Karaoke

August 21st, 2010

Made you look. It’s not girl topless karaoke. Somehow after “The Promise” and “It Takes Two,” all the guys were shirtless in solidarity. They were singing “Boys Don’t Cry.”

So it was my first time at SXSW and my excuse for going was because I was on a panel with the Whuffaoke (the Winnebago with karaoke that drove across the country last summer) folks : Tara Hunt author of The Whuffie Factor, the irrepressible partiers Karen Hartline, Emma Perky, Tony B. of New Work [...]

Others, noting that other equally popular tunes have not provoked killings, point to the song itself. The lyrics, written by Paul [...]

I’d like to read this book…

Karaoke Around the World: Global Technology, Local Singing but at $160 I’d rather experience a few nights of debauchery instead. Like this one:

However, the very global chapter titles include “Karaoke in Italy,” “Swedish forms of karaoke,” and “Karaoke and Middle Aged Woman in Japan.” Dying to know!

Or at least stand in the same room as her! I just got word that I’ll be going to a pre-Grammys celebrity karaoke party tomorrow, with acts like Miley Cyrus, Kanye, Mariah, Black Eye Peas, and maybe Rihanna. It’s going to be hosted by Aubry Fisher of L.A. Ink. The one rule?
“Each musician singing and [...]
