I’m sorry to have missed this one last month.

Actually, no I’m not. I’m very thankful to have missed this one last month. I’m sorry that it has now popped up in my radar, and I’m even sorrier to post it on the blog.

Long live Vajazzle, but this infomercial for a 3-step system to “Put Some Bling in Your Fling,” turns the cute and classy spa trend into an awkward, cheesy marketing attempt for women who want cotton candy scented vaginas. Top it off with a cast of painfully bad actors, borrowed from, um, a different film industry, and there you have it: Tajazzle.

Far too dramatic, dear Baywatch bikini runner, and weightlifting girl who says, and I quote: “Ever since I found Tajazzle, I’ve transformed from just another pretty woman into a glamorous goddess. I smell good, and taste good, and wearing those beautiful crystals as my special secret makes my confidence soar.” OH, really? Tajazzle did ALL that? You think looking like a Victoria’s Secret model helped at all?

Have a lovely weekend, starting by not watching this absurd advertorial.

Part One:

Can’t get enough? Part Two:

Every single one of us could use a trip to the spa. That’s why we’re here. But when push comes to shove… there are some folks who could use a day at the spa a little more than others. We reached back into some of our funniest archives to illustrate just the type of folks we’re talking about. A little extra luck comes with that much needed spa day, as our Holiday gift card sale doesn’t end until the year does. Get a $100 Spa Week Gift Card for just $79.99 or get 20% off any denomination.

We’d like to thank these adorable kittens for helping spread the healthy spa lifestyle to the world. Massages for ALL!

And they’re not just touching one another… they’re touching hearts. Here’s the story behind the kitties, courtesy of their YouTube page:

Foster kittens Chloe and Bugsy from the Vancouver Orphan Kitten Rescue Association (VOKRA). To see them here, it is hard to believe how timid, wild and fearful they were when they were first rescued. So affectionate and loving. They’ve been adopted now but to view other kittens and cats on VOKRA’s website or to donate, visit: http://www.orphankittenrescue.com/
*happy ending for the orphans: see MsBTigress on youtube to see Chloe (now Clea) and Bugsy (now Oreo) all grown up in their forever home!

…he’s going to ask for a facial.

This is how you give your opossum a proper pedicure. You can only go uphill from here.

You probably don’t have an opossum to pamper, but have you ever given a pedi to a pet? Fess up!

If you fast forward the video below to 2:10… you will witness a free massage.
