frivolous note
Even Paris Hilton is in İstanbul, and I'm not. So unfair. On the other hand, I'm totally a better dancer (at least when it comes to this kind of music) than she is.
The whole thing strikes me as a criminal waste of the talent of the great Burhan Öçal (the longsuffering darbuka player). The Burhan Öçal & the Trakya All-Stars album Trakya Dance Party is well worth your liras, dollars, euros, rupees, or currency of whatever sort.
(via DailyCherez). But! while I was in the very process of writing this post, that sneaky Sepoy emailed me a copy of the same clip. What do they say about great minds again? Anyways, apparently Bill O'Reilly shot off at the mouth about it; won't somebody send me a link?

paris hilton is so beautiful. and she tosses her blond hair this way and that so stylishly. i love the way it brushes her face. and she throws her hands up towards the end. so nice. i love paris hilton.
just because she is rich and born in a hotel doesn't mean that we should make fun of her. i am appalled by the sorts of commentary that heat magazine and others have been offering on her hair, her boobs, her clothes, her behaviour. FOR THE LAST 6 YEARS!!!! and now you are adding to this MEDIA GAZE verbalprivilege. i am shocked. enough is enough. vive le paris hilton.
Oh god...this post made me laugh and then I read Thariel's comments and laughed some more.
Though, "Even Paris Hilton is in İstanbul, and I'm not. So unfair." Yep. My EXACT reaction. What did you say about great minds? :D
And I'm a terrible terrible dancer but she isn't even dancing...more like doing some weird seductions sort moves...jeez.
Also, totally agree about Burhal Ocal.
all your media gaze are belong to us! yet, I insist: I come not to critique her boobs, hair, or birth, but rather her dancing. Especially in comparison with the very talented Asena (the lady in green), whose hips could tell a whole holy book's worth of lies:

also szerelem, I warn you that what you see above is the deterioration of mental capacity and moral purpose that may result from say, going overseas to grad school. consider thyself warned.
overheard in oxford: dear S likes paris hilton so much, she would like to lick her.
hey thanks for the hat-tip...
and i can't believe i'm saying this but 10 pts and 3 cheers for paris hilton. she's got serious BALLS, and by that i mean a very nice spray-on tan
