Okay…I had to write about this.
So here I am washing the dishes listening to some catchy Bollywood tunes when the Pink Lips song comes up. I’m excited because it’s a catchy tune, right? No one’s home as I’m singing along, shaking my booty, and at moments trying ever so hard to mimic Sunny’ssexy moves. All the while I’m thinking to myself “gosh I really should go and get some sexy pink lipstick, I mean there’s a whole song dedicated to pink lips so it must be some new sexy trend”. Anyways, I continue to clean the house in my run down scrubs and yellow dishwashing gloves while frolicking to the tune when in walks my husband – who is giving me that appalled, alarming look. I look back at him confused, I mean this is not the first time he’s walked in on me goofing off to music so what’s up with the look? He’s like, “you DO know what this song is about right?” I answer back – “Yeah, it’s about pink lips!” He’s looking at me with that bewildered expression, actually waiting for it all to to click and I’m still staring back at him (obviously it’s not clicking). So here we are starting at each other with the Pink Lips song playing in the background, neither of us divulging any additional information. Finally, he just turns away and says forget it….OF COURSE I run after him demanding he tell me what he thinks the song is about. Again he just stares at me most likely thinking if I’m secretly a blonde but just have been dying my hair black all these years (apologizes to you blonde babes, but had to use the stereotype), and I’m staring back, like a blonde. This is the moment he had to break it down to me, literally. He also suggested I not use ANY of the moves from the video at any Indian receptions or functions,
If my husband was alarmed by the fact that I didn’t know what the song meant, I think he was even more shocked at my response when I asked him: “what about the women who don’t have pink lips?”
