Spotlight/ Shoutout: Eric Millegan


So in this day and age it is hard to find people that are rather exceptional. That is why Eric Millegan earns the s/s for this week.

You may have seen him on “Bones,” and you may have seen his traveling cabaret show.

But Eric Millegan does far more than act.

He has been an open homosexual, and not only that he has come out three times.

1. homosexuality
2. About his Age
3. For his mental illness

As for his age, Eric Millegan is 35, and he looks like he is 19ish. But he even stated he had to come out with his age and admit that he is older than he looks. Much more courageous, than that goomba mcgoomba, Jason Earles from Hannah Montana, who refuses to admit that he’s 33.

But now Eric Millegan is an open advocate for Mental Illness Awareness, Eric has bipolar disorder, but he does not let it get him down anymore. As an actor, he has made it onto many network television shows, but he has been battling mental illness the whole time.

Eric now has a series of youtube videos explaining what it’s like having bipolar disorder. I would recommend watching them. Whether you have bipolar disorder or not, they’re rather inspirational.

QATFYG: Does he look 35? And I apologize for tech difficulties earlier, such as losing my Jason Earles pic.

    Sorry to be annoying, but I think you made an error. I just want to make sure it is an error to understand your point. The sentence in question is, "But he even stated he had to come out with his age and admit that he is younger than he looks." I think you mean to day "that he is" older instead of younger "than he looks."

    He does look younger than mid 30s, but I think he doesn't look 19, possibly mid to late 20s. Also, he looks much older than he did in the past.

    He was pretty good on Bones, but I prefer John Francis Daily to him. (Sweets > Zach, obviously.)

    I will say-- 35?!?! Holy crap. The man looks like he's a college student.

    well blank,

    that was what i wanted to do! just to see if you were paying attention.

    And at least Eric is open about his age, whereas Jason Earles had to forge his resume saying he was 8 years younger than he really is. o and blank, do yo see where i made a mistake this time?

    I do miss Zack on bones tho, and it's not a recent pic. It's prolly 3 years old, but it's still from his early 30's.

"Mon Soleil" - Ashley Park

If there's anything people take away from my piss-poor legacy, I hope it's what a huge, unabashed fan of "Emily in Paris" I am and will continue to be. People love "90 Day Fiancee," "The Bachelor," and other garbage - allow me "Emily," which is at least harmless, kind of goofy fluff (which does, unfortunately, lean into some stereotypes, as the country of Ukraine knows ). I have already watched Season 2 twice. And honestly my favorite part of this show (despite my crush on Camille Razart and Lily Collins channeling Audrey Hepburn hardcore ) is Ashley Park. This woman has superstar written all over her. She's a bona fide Broadway star, and "Emily in Paris" has served as her pivot into the zeitgeist.  "Emily in Paris" is also showcasing her vocal prowess front and center this season, with her covering BTS, "All By Myself," "Sympathtique," and Marilyn Monroe. But the real standout performance is th

"Anchors" - AM Higgins

Here's a nice breezy, almost sensual song from AM Higgins (the solo project of musician Annie Toth) to start your Tuesday off right.  Her debut album "Hymning" will be out November 5th on Victorialand Records. The album was mixed by Casey Foubert, a frequent collaborator of Sufjan Stevens. The album "captures the first years of moving from an American city to rural France." Sounds like "Hymning" will be a welcome escape from the world we live in right now, especially considering that Annie Toth counts poets Mary Oliver and Thomas Merton as influences.

Summer Playlist - 2022 Edition!

 It's truly the little things in life that make a world of difference. And for me, that means my summer playlist! Behold, I have put together 2022's edition. It includes cuts from artists like: - Mitski - Uffie - Johnny Orlando - Kylie Minogue + Jessie Ware - Florence and the Machine (who put out a fantastic album this year after a long dry spell of kind of "meh" records. Her pairing with Jack Antonoff worked out quite well!)  - Bilal - Harry Styles (he has some catchy music!)  - KATE BUSH DUH - And of course, Lana. It's also available on Apple Music, but since I recognize a lot of folks use Spotify, here's that link. Enjoy!
