Déjà vu


Groundhog Day is all about déjà vu.  The french saying literally, already seen, and fits the feeling many of us have about the feeling of an endless winter.  The 1980 shot of John Lennon and Yoko Ono is an image I'm sure many of you have already seen.  The Annie Leibovitz shot is iconic and graced the January 1981 cover of Rolling Stone.  Yesterday, Will and Grace's Megan Mullally posted a shot she and co-stars Sean Hayes took just after the final episode of the original run of the series.


'Okay this is slightly miraculous. @seanhayes and i took this photo in 2006. #willandgrace had just ended- or so we thought- and I had the idea to do this photo with Sean whom i had loved so much and worked so closely with for those eight years. to commemorate our very symbiotic partnership. I had a photo shoot scheduled for something else with the photographer @jackguyphotography, and we tacked it onto the end of that shoot. he sent me a hard copy and then i promptly lost it until TODAY when our assistant in LA unearthed it in the guest room closet.'


Maybe when the re-boot ends, Megan and Sean will recreate another iconic John and Yoko image. Maybe take a stab at re-creating the infamous shots John took with a self timer for the album cover for Unfinished Music No. 1, Two Virgins....
