My team read this entry and we were laughing the entire time, Marc and James are two of the funniest guys I’ve met and I’m glad I can put them on the top 5. They are partners in Youtubes hit show Lexationships! They’ve made me laugh countless times and I’m glad to have an entry from them. I hope you enjoy this as much as we did!
—————————————————————————————————-
We here at Lexationships wanted to say our element was “fire,” but after realizing how much of a douchebag that ginger was to the rest of the Planeteers, we instead decided to go with what we knew — ties. And when we realized how absolutely lame that was for an entry, we opted to go with something we pretend we know, and that’s comedy. Comedy, for our money (the piles and piles of it, we’ll have you know), is without question the most important performance art in the world, bar none. You teach people with comedy. You can make people angry with it. And if you’re really good? You can heal people with it. And that’s our job here at Lexationships, especially since none of us can afford med school. But more than that, we want to bring something new to the table. We don’t do accents. We don’t make fun of our parents. But we do like bringing people together — and if they have even a third of the fun watching us as we do performing for them? Then everything’s worth it.
Now, how’d we use comedy in a photoshoot? Well, aside from posing like we’re telling jokes, and telling some poor stranger to hold a laughing pose while you snap away, we want to come across just as classy and entertaining as one of our main inspirations at Lex: the Rat Pack. They were the epitome of entertainment, guys who could make you laugh, cry, and sing along whether you were an average Joe, or the Hollywood elite. Look at Frank, Dino, Sammy, etc., in the decades worth of photography dedicated to them, and you’ll see consummate entertainers — the best in the world at what they did. And regardless of their personal problems, their issues with each other and their families… when that spotlight hit? They were the coolest men on the planet. Singers. Actors. Dancers. Comedians. That’s what they did. But who they were? Well, that was something else, entirely. Both on and off the stage, on film and in pictures — they were best friends.
I love these guys
