Hi learjet, yeah KJ's hair in that pic with the red dress is quite umm normal!
Ahh lol I think you are getting ezibuy ads because you have browsed their website.. If you clear your history they should vanish!
I"m still wondering about that Joan Rivers show.. and what it was called and what years it was airing.. anyone?
I have a few things to share which revolve around one outfit..
this outfit of Amanda's from Life of the Party -
Seems Kate Jackson has worn this outfit at least twice in real life! over a 3 week period- eek!!! I guess that kinda reduces the chances that KJ only does it when she is rushing straight from filming huh??!!
We saw her wear it here:
At the Golden Globes Awards on 27 Jan 1985 (KJ was nominated)
Here's a link to the footage if you are interested..
I took this snip from video I found on Youtube of the nominations being read out.
(I think this is KJ's husband at that time sitting next to her)
(here's one of KJ smiling.. lovely smile! this is the moment they said KJ was nominated.. alas she didn't win!)
Then.. I found this black and white picture on getty images.. it's watermarked as it's for sale - and no theft is intended..
In this one, you can see really clearly that KJ is wearing a dress we've seen on smk lots of times - I think this is the dress Amanda wore to Princess Penny's party.. and to the Quickie chickie party in Service above and beyond..
Its the black version of the white dress that so many of us love in ship of spies.. Love this dress!!! and for once, I can see why KJ might want to wear it in real life haaaaaa..
You can just see she has on this same black dress under the jacket here in the Life of the party episode:
But wait! there's more!!!
KJ also wore this jacket on 17 Feb, 1985 - at the taping of 'Night of 100 Stars'
I found a moment on youtube where we get to see KJ that night on stage - it was tricky to find what she was wearing at this event.. and I had to sit through a large amount of 80s fashion to try and find the moment in the show where we got to see KJ ! haaaaa..
Here's snips of the KJ on stage moment-
KJ walking onto stage:
same black dress underneath?? Not sure..
Here's KJ up close..
could be the same dress.. but definitely same jacket!
maybe if you watch the footage you can decide for yourself..
here's the vid:
[you can see KJ at 5:30] but watch it all for a good laugh.. the song and dance number introducing all these stars is soooo cheesy and lame!!! and the fashions?? ohhhh the fashions!! the huge hair! huge shoulder pads!!! rofl!!! ]
Here's an image I found of KJ (under the watermark!) at the after party chatting with Joan Collins [apparently sitting at table 47 ]
and yep getty images again.. no theft intended.. so it's watermarked. but you get the idea..
but wait! there's even more!!
If you want to have a reeeeally good laugh..
here's a link to a fashion show which they included as part of the show. Yes!!.. a fashion show!!!! [kj isn't in it.. was very relieved to learn this!!]
But you can see Mary McFadden makes an appearance in the fashion show at one point- KJ's fave source of evening wear no?
Honestly, I was giggling furiously .. no I was chortling!!! and sniggering!!! it is a real hoot and if you want a laugh at 80s fashion? watch this!!!!
Having seen so much 80s fashion now, I think KJ was actually on the minimalist end of the scale of ridiculous fashions of the 80s!
Sooo here's my little bit of detective work on this outfit.. it's been fun!
btw - it has helped me to figure out that KJ got her hair cut in either Dec 1984 or Jan 1985
sorry this is so long.. but heck I thought why not put all this in the one place?
[umm hopefully I've linked everything correctly.. if not let me know!]
Playing detective (and giggling over 80s fashions) has been fun!
byeee!
