on february 11th, 2012 - 2/11/2012 - the world paused collectively to recognize the passing of Whitney Elizabeth Houston, one of the most influential PoP stars of our age, second only, perhaps, to the late great Michael Jackson..

sparkle finger

Whitney's death is connected, not so eerily perhaps, to the death of Michael Jackson in that both artists transitioned right before making a comeback, and both *allegedly* died of willful drug overdose.. and both of their doctors were/are suspected of foul play. the much-affirmed pattern of pop stars found overdosed- from Marilyn Monroe to Heath Ledger- smacks of conspiracy.. yet still makes practical sense in the context of the beautiful beast that is the celebrity lifestyle.. such is synk. practical conspiracy..

..all according to plan, though, right?

Like Mike- Whitney Houston transitioned right before a major career "comeback" event.. Mike passed right before his "This Is It" world tour, and Whitney would've seen the release of her fifth major motion picture, a remake of a 1976 film entitled Sparkle;

three blue ladies

"A film about how fame changes people's lives. When a trio from Harlem makes it in the music biz one of them succeeds, one of them finds love, and one of them falls into drugs. "Supremes" like music was written by funk legend Curtis Mayfield, the front man for the band "The Impressions" and the artist behind the incredible Superfly film soundtracks. (Written by Joel Schumacher)"

three red ladies

The original Sparkle also starred Mary Alice,
who played the re-birthed oracle in Matrix: Revolutions..

three red ladies - sister & the sisters

the 1976 Sparkle was about the celebrity-life trials of a three-woman pop singing group, loosely based on Diana Ross and The Supremes. This is the same premise as Beyonce's 2006 musical, Dreamgirls..

..and a dash of sparkle

[from Goodbye Kiss For Camera @thepatternist]

in Dreamgirls, the three-woman pop group includes Jennifer Hudson, an actress who exemplifies the pop star dream..

..before she was winning oscars [and singing at Super Bowls], Hudson started her career humbly as a contestant on American Idol, just like Whitney Houston's Sparkle co-star, Jordin Sparks..

 

blue vs red

red vs blue. ..and.. with sparkle

i need more sparkle

Jordin Sparks synks with Whitney Houston and Jennifer Hudson by being the pop Star who gets to sing the national anthem at the Super Bowl.. at Super Bowl 42, no less..

Jennifer Hudson performed the very next year at Super Bowl 43, shocking many of her fans by appearing three months after her nephew, mother and brother had been murdered [?]. Whitney Houston performed at Super Bowl 25, and the performance put her on the global stage..

not so sparkly

zombie apocalypse

who sung the 2012 Super Bowl national anthem?
former American Idol contestant, Kelly Clarkson

the super-hyped 2012 Super Bowl Halftime Show featured another three-woman pop Star group: Madonna, Nicki Minaj and M.I.A...

now with triple the sparkle

as the blogoshpere has already uncovered, Madonna synks here tarot-style as the High Priestess, complete with headress/mask and throne, sitting atop twin sphinxes..

seriously..? [sparkle]

[ Spotted By Vigilant Citizens ]

“The Superbowl is kind of like the Holy of Holies in America. I’ll come at halfway of the 'church experience' and I’m gonna have to deliver a sermon. It’ll have to be very impactful.” 

-Madonna

man in black sparkle, madonna kneeling in worship

..aaand, as a personal shout-out to me, Madonna, her producers, and the universe decided to end the performance with CeeLo joining in for "Like A Prayer", a song whose video features Madonna getting some holy lovin from [not-] Black Jesus..

"A brunette Madonna, afraid that the thugs might harm her, goes to a church and prays before a statue of an African saint, which then comes to life. Madonna and the saint make love on the altar, compelling her to go to the police and provide an alibi for the young man."

[not] black jesus. and [no] that is [not] Marilyn Monroe..

power finger

f--k you sparkle

my personal favorite of the three, M.I.A., stole the show with a gesture, flipping a punk-rock middle finger to the camera.. gesture malfunction.. M.I.A. is also MAYA -her real name is Maya- reflecting the surprising [yet unsurprising] popularity of the 2012 mayan calendar doom prophecy, and in turn, how a Sync Philosophy, by way of rumors of the "occult", has become Pop.

rainbow sparkle

the day after Whitney Houston died, the 54th Grammy Awards were held; the show must go on, after all.. the awards featured a shock-and-awe style performance from the Third goddess in the Trio, the pop sex kitten of the moment, the incomparable miss Nicki Minaj..

black red riding hood and white holy father 

of course, speaking of rumors of the occult, Minaj had to arrive dressed completely in red, escorted by a parody of the PoPe.. Love, Lust, and the Sacred mashed together in the spotlight of PoPular parody, once again..

hip-hop sparkle

Minaj is a play on menage e'trois, a the french term for a sexy three-way, again reflecting the triple.. and in March, the 3rd month of 2012, Nicki Minaj will appear on a trio of magazine covers..

with the 2012 Grammy Awards, Nicki Minaj, her producers, and the universe seemed to aim to give the conspiracy-hungry occult-symbolism crowd a good show to feed the blogs, complete with Lady Gaga-style religious controversy, sex juxtaposed with christian imagery, and an on-stage exorcism thrown in for good measure.

you can see the strings

P!nk's Grammy performance of the song "Glitter"

the unsettling darkness of this *staged* desecration of the feminine, through the *suggested* possession of Nicki Minaj by demonic spirits, is a sharp contrast to the whimsical reverence of Madonna's cheer-happy Super Bowl priestess-worship love-fest, and also to the more poignant, solemn reverence of Jennifer Hudson's Whitney Houston tribute performance of the song "I Will Always Love You" that very same night..

and as synk would have it, the musical tv show Glee, known for its super-PoP renditions of classic songs, featured Whitney Houston's most popular single, "I Will Always Love You" on its special Valentine's Day episode, filmed just in time to air on Valentine's Day, just three days after Whitney Houston died.



..of course, it makes practical sense, for V-day, that the singer, Amber Riley, another former American Idol wannabe, would perform the song's famous climax in a shiny red dress..

..gotta have that sparkle..
