Whatever you celebrate — even if it’s nothing, and you’re just relishing a day to relax — we hope you have a wonderful day today. And we hope you don’t NEED to be cheered up by this music video. But let’s say you do. Or, let’s say you don’t, but you’re not opposed to it, either. Let me present to you The Weather Girls, singing their version of “Dear Santa”:
This came out after “It’s Raining Men,” but I like to think of it as a prequel. Because if it was already raining men, they wouldn’t need Santa to deliver one — although “It’s Raining Men” is something of a gay anthem, so maybe the manstorm just didn’t yield any fruit for the Weather Girls specifically. Anyway, please savor the many delights to be had here, and if you need more procrastinatory material, may I suggest, in addition to what we published earlier this week:
- Last year’s jumbo Margot Robbie retrospective, which we broke into pre- and post-Chanel contract
- Last year’s even JUMBO-er Nicole Kidman retrospective, which ran three parts. Start here!
- We also spotlighted the year in Stephanie Hsu.
- You can also time-travel back to 2022, where some of our year-enders included a Loewe slideshow that REALLY highlights how far they’ve come, as compared to all the outfits in this week’s Greta Lee gallery.
