Recently in a late night dessert panic, Bloghungry baked and iced a 2 layer chocolate ricotta cake with homemade vanilla buttercream from pantry to plate in about 30 minutes. In honor of the new Madonna/Justin Timberlake song 4 Minutes. I attempted to throw together a banana cupcake with banana cream cheese frosting in just 4 minutes. It took a little longer than 4 minutes, but only because I used a pastry bag.
Also, Bloghungry has a hobby of scripting out music videos for songs while sitting in L.A. traffic. I've done it for years and I fully believe that if Brittney would have just called me for her last few videos, her career and life would be in a better place right now. Here is an outline of my thoughts for the Madonna/J.T. song.
Bloghungry's "4 Minutes" Video Outline:
Enter on Madonna (lip-syncing) being wheeled down a hospital hallway on a gurney as she extends in Top Modelesque poses. A 4 minute digital countdown clock begins in the corner of the screen.
Cut to J.T. (lip-syncing) in GQ doctor fashions walking in a hurried runway walk down a hospital corridor. He busts through some double doors.
Cut to Madonna (lip-syncing) sprawled out on an operating table in heroine chic awkwardness as her clothes are cut off her by sexy mod nurses to reveal bathing suit-like unitard. Sexy mod nurses circle around in a medical dance panic.
Cut to J.T. (lip-syncing) scrubbing his hands, putting on gloves, etc. and bursting into the operating room with Madonna. He rushes to her side and they both lipsync as he is operating on her general midsection in no specific way. Sweat drips from his brow with great intensity as sexy mod nurses dance around and are sprayed with Technicolor blood and medical fluids originating from Madonna's general midsection. The nurses turn into an orgy on the dance floor as the surgery becomes more heated. The clock in the corner of the screen counts down to zero and Madonna's monitor flatlines. J.T. hangs his head as Madonna and the sexy mod nurse orgy lie lifeless.
