Posted: 10/1/12 at 7:35pmIt's so hilarious. But horrendously filmed. It's so pointless

Note to the Divas' sons everywhere. Don't film your mother in the wrong aspect ratio.
Double widescreen isn't going to work ... for anyone ... ever.

Posted: 10/1/12 at 7:43pmlol, love how he failed to mention that he's her son. But I guess he doesn't want to be known as "Patti LuPone's son."

Posted: 10/1/12 at 8:09pm^Why not? Would that make him seem too gay?
#5Patti LuPone 'Reality Show' Filmed By Her Son
Posted: 10/1/12 at 8:13pmWell he probably wants to be taken seriously as his person.

Posted: 10/1/12 at 8:29pmWell I'm glad it's not "LOOK AT MY MOMMY SHE IS SO GOOD!"
When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain.

He filmed in the correct aspect ratio, but when he was editing, he "letterboxed" it so he could add those subtitles over the black bar at the bottom. YouTube took his 4:3 video and stretched it to 16:9 automatically, making it double wide.
I think it's a great practice effort, and we're darn lucky to have this series. Patti doesn't seem like the type who would let just anyone film a documentary about her, and I'm sure she was pretty strict about the content included in this series, whether or not it was her son filming her. :-P

"Why not? Would that make him seem too gay?"
Possibly to avoid her crazy younger fans from latching onto him, which is something I witnessed first hand. When I went to see Gypsy, afterward a fan girl kept trying to get him to sign her Gypsy poster, but he kept refusing saying "I wasn't in the show" to which the girl then said "But, you're Patti LuPone's son - that's even better". Finally, after much annoyance from the girl, he signed her poster, but once she asked for a picture, he said "No" and jumped into the car to continue to wait for his mother.

"Nicely done, Josh."
If that was aimed at me, I can assure you I'm not Patti LuPone's son and I'm not affiliated with him in any way.

Cheyenne Jackson tickled me. AFTER ordering SoMMS a drink but NOT tickling him, and hanging out with Girly in his dressing room (where he DIDN'T tickle her) but BEFORE we got married. To others. And then he tweeted Boobs. He also tweeted he's good friends with some chick on "The Voice" who just happens to be good friends with Tink's ex. And I'm still married. Oh, and this just in: "Pettiness, spite, malice ....Such ugly emotions... So sad." - After Eight, talking about MEEEEEEEE!!! I'm so honored! :-)
