...protagonists' excesses alone make for lurid, enjoyably outraged viewing. (Surely one celebrant's decision to dye her poodles pink should have prompted a call to the A.S.P.C.A.) A precocious celebutant makes her entrance via helicopter. A self-proclaimed "divo" (like diva but different) rents out the mall to stage a faux fashion show (prompting a backstage catfight over a limited supply of bustiers). There are hired dancers, a raj-like litter hoisted by hand-picked hotties and an apparent contractual obligation for someone to arrive in a stretch Hummer. I had no idea so many stretch Hummers even existed...

...large part to the fact that “Mystics” boasts some undeniably catchy tunes. The Lips have retained the lush electronic orchestration they experimented with on their most recent albums, “The Soft Bulletin” and “Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots,” but this time they’ve married it to pop grooves that hook harder than most of their previous outings. There’s always been a hint of nostalgia to the Lips’ psychedelic flavor, but there’s nothing subtle about...

...checked her class schedule (also posted on Facebook), and planned a convenient time and place to “accidentally” bump into her—outside the Science Center at about 11:00 a.m. So if you see a guy creeping around the Science Center wearing a pink Polo shirt with a Chicago Cubs cap and holding a Hallmark “I’m sorry about your dead pet rodent” card, wish me luck, but please, don’t turn me in to the police.

...gentrified sections of the city, far away from Fountain’s home, little seems changed from before Katrina’s arrival. Brides can still buy wedding invitations in cool shades of cream. Stores sell day planners in smooth leather for a little under $100 and pink-spotted stationery for $20. Past this and the neighborhood coffee shop (iced chai latte, $3.65), there sits a solid Whole Foods. Blackberries are priced $5.99. A half loaf of bread costs 99 cents. A willing customer can buy corn-and-crab chowder and creole crawfish salad by unit weight.In New Orleans, normalcy...

...what do you expect from a band whose live shows feature bunny suits and fake blood? Besides, seeing a bunch of fat men chasing a guy covered in burgers is fantastic in a slightly inappropriate way, as is another key scene in which cops race after a doughnut-covered, pink-clad Paris Hilton lookalike. This is the type of thing that you’d like to do if you could get away with it, which is exactly what the song is about. “The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song” is a paean to the misuse...
