Parlay Voo

Bon jour everyone, Katie here.

There's a very special French language school here in Minneapolis. It's called Alliance Francaise. They are trying to freshen up their image and add life to their internet presence. Guess who they've asked to make a MOVIE for their website?

Moi

that's French for me

Apparently my Killer Queen and Bohemian Catsody videos impressed their creative consultant so much that he asked ME to star in a one-minute short on their website. Glogirly is producing the movie. It's called Katie le Chat goes to Paris. Le Chat is French for The Cat.

Glogirly says the French role is right up my alley. I'm sophisticated, fashionable and I have attitude. I'm not sure I liked the way she said, "attitude," though.

Here's me with all my luggage for Paris.

Don't worry, I'm bringing plenty of Salmon.

So anyway, Glogirly doesn't speak French and neither do I. But I'm working on it. I'm hoping I have some French blogging friends out there that can tell me how to say "meow" in French.

Salut!

That's french for goodbye.

Smoke And Mirrors

Hi everyone, Katie here.

Bohemian Catsody was a huge hit! Thanks for all your great comments. I'm hoping my performance will earn me an oscar.

Glogirly says that if it weren't for Gloman and his amazing photography skills, we'd have never been able to put together a production like Bohemian Catsody. What??? Are you kidding me??? Ah, excuse me... I don't see Gloman in any starring role. Who does she think the CAT in Bohemian CATsody is anyway?!

I swear. I give and I give. And I give some more.

This is the photo we used for all of my a capella close ups.

Without me in the photo, it would be nothing

but the side of a sofa and an ugly rug.

Glogirly just added a little smoke and mirrors.

But I must point out that she needed FOUR of me to pull this off.

Bohemian CATsody

Hi everyone, Katie here.

Congrats to Brenda, Boots & Ozzie from Canada, eh. Within seconds of my Name That Tune post challenge, they were tap-tapping away on their computer with the correct answer: Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody.

So find a comfy chair, grab a CATsody-pop from the fridge and turn the volume UP. My latest music video has just been released! At six minutes, I know, it's long. But it's worth every note! There's a special surprise at the end for my friend CK. It's her b-day today, you know.

You can watch directly on YouTube by clicking HERE.

Or just click the video below.

Don't forget to sing along. You know you want to.

Pee S -

There were a few words in the lyrics we had to Google. In case your enquiring mind wants to know...

Scaramouch: A masked, rougish clown character of the Italian Commedia Dell'arte.

Bismallah: It's Arabic and translates to "In the name of God (most gracious and most merciful.)"

Beelzebub: Originally translated in Arabic, Greek and Latin as "Lord of the Flies." In later Christian sources, he appears as a demon.

Figaro: From Mozart's comic opera, The Marriage of Figaro. Figaro is almost swindled into marrying his own mother.

Name That Tune

Hi everyone, Katie here.

The production of my upcoming music video has had me a little tied up. Don't worry, no rope was involved. In the meantime I thought it would be fun to give you a few clues. See if anyone is smart enough to...

NAME THAT TUNE

Era: Mid-70's

Sales: 3rd best selling single in UK of all time

Top of the Charts Factoids:

• When released, the song stayed at the top of the UK Singles charts for 9 weeks.
• 15 years later, after the death of one of the band members, it again reached #1 on the UK Singles charts. This time for 5 weeks.
• The next year, the song reached #2 on the US charts after being featured in a popular movie.

Do I sound like Casey Kasem yet?

What makes it unique?

• The song has no chorus section.
• But it has everything else - a ballad, a guitar solo, a hard rock section....even a little opera thrown in.

From my guitar solo.

I also get to play the piano.

Did I mention that I dance the Fandango?

Now again I must insist that you do not ask your friend, Mr. Google, for help. If you can't stand it and decide to cheat, just don't give it away.

On your marks.

Get set.

GO!

My Next Project

Hi everyone, Katie here.

I've been resting up after my music video tour. This Killer Queen really needed her beauty rest. The response to my musical prowess was so great I decided to begin production on a new and very special recording.

Killer Queen was an autobiography of sorts. Glogirly says it suited my personality perfectly. She said it with a smirk though.

Get your Kleenex ready.

My next role is much more challenging and dramatic. I play a character torn between life and death. Happiness and sorrow. It requires a tremendous amount of self reflection.

But when you're as good looking as me,

self reflection comes natural.

Killer Queen

Hi everyone, Katie here.

Just in time, I'm ready to rock you into the weekend!

You've been such good sports over the past few days, trying to figure out the song featured in my new music video. I've been throwing you a few bones each day, but it wasn't until late last night that someone finally got it.

Congratulations to Caren & Cody from Cat Chat! They pegged it. And she pegged ME. Glogirly says there really is NO better song to personify me than Queen's 1974 breakthrough hit, 'Killer Queen.' Freddy Mercury, the pianist and lead singer, wrote the lyrics first and then added in the musical arrangements. He wrote the song about a high-class call girl. Gloman has been known to call me a whore. I'm not sure how I feel about all this.

So without further delay...here it is!

Pssssst! Blogger cuts off the right side of the screen, so if you want an optimum viewing experience, just click HERE to go straight to YouTube. Oh and because I've violated about a gazillion copyright infringement laws, you can't watch it on your mobile device.

Glogirly's had a bit too much fun creating my costumes and sets for this production. Now the song is playing in her head 24/7.

She goes to sleep humming...

"She keeps her Moet & Chandon . . . . . . . in a pretty cabinet."

She wakes up singing...

"In conversation . . . . . . . . . . . she spoke just like a baroness."

All day long it's...

"She's a killer . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .QUEEN."

Now YOU can sing along too!

Master Of My Custom Domain

Hi everyone, Katie here.

This just in.

I am officially Queen of the castle.

Lord of the manor.

And Master of my custom domain.

Glogirly paid the nice peeps at GoDaddy, not to be confused with GloDaddy, and we are proud to announce we have a new member of the family.

The Official Announcement

Not to worry. You can still find us at www.glogirly.blogspot.com. You will be automatically redirected to www.glogirly.com. It's the same blog, same me...still exceptionally good looking. Some things never change.

Glogirly thought it would be fun to have a domain to call our own. Frankly, I think her money would have been better spent on salmon.

Pee S - My music video will be posting SUPER SOON! Here's another clue for those of you that have been playing:

My perfume came naturally from Paris.

Naturally.
