Star Plus is ok with the ParthSamthaan output? Will KasautiZindagiKay be fired after Parth’s resignation?
Kasautii Zindagii Kay 2 ‘has managed to win hearts with his episodes full of drama. But lately, reports have been circulating that the show’s main actors have decided to leave the show, including Parth Samthaan, Erica Fernandes, and Sahil Anand.
However, Erica Fernandes denied all the rumors that she left the show and said that she is a very important part of “Kasautii Zindagii Kay 2.” Parth has reportedly given her notice period to the production house and is expected to film her last episode in the second week of September 2020.
According to a report based on a major newspaper, the channel (Star Plus) agrees with Parth’s decision to leave as they were quite disappointed with the actor’s recent behavior. A source said: “The channel is unhappy with Parth’s recent behavior, which they feel is unprofessional. However, the production house wants him to continue on the show, and meetings are underway on this. They are negotiating, but Parth seems to want to move on. “
Although there is no confirmation from the channel, Ekta Kapoor or Parth on the statement yet.
Also, according to a report on Pinkvilla, Ekta Kapoor has been trying to persuade Parth not to leave the show, but the actor expressed a wish not to participate. Meanwhile, the team has already started considering actors for the character of Anurag Basu, but they are finding it difficult. “Parth now wants to direct his attention to his health and the other projects he is in talks with. Ekta Kapoor has been trying to persuade Parth to hold back, but the actor has expressed a wish not to participate. The production, meanwhile, has already started considering actors to put themselves in Parth’s shoes, but they are finding it difficult, ”the report states.
Talks are ongoing between the creators and actor Zain Imam, Barun Sobti, Harshad Chopda, Aashim Gulati, Vishal Aditya Singh, and Vijayendra Kumeria to be the next Anurag after Parth leaves the first week of September. It remains to be seen who can replace Parth in KZK and also match his popularity in portraying the character. If that doesn’t happen, Ekta can order it off the air as well and it’s not unlikely.
About KZK going off the air in the absence of a better or equally good Anurag than Parth, a source said: “Parth has found a huge following and Anurag is an iconic character. Ekta is clear that if he doesn’t stay and she can’t find a worthy replacement, she will end the program. “
Leave your feedback on Parth replacement.


Not so long ago, Kylie Jenner was caught stealing clothing designs from NYC Plugged. That’s just one of the many things that she’s tried to steal from black women. Let’s not forget about her evil sister, Pepsi girl Kendall Jenner. These two cucks tried to use Biggie And 2pac to promote their whack clothing line. They had no image rights or any sort of approval from any of the families. Biggie Smalls’ mum made an Instagram post calling out Kylie and Kendall. Suge Knight also sent them a word of warning. Kendall Jenner uploaded a sub-par apology on her Twitter account. It’s a little too late for that.
Here Are The Following Reasons Why Kylie And Kendall Jenner Are Filthy White Trash:
You Might Have A Black Card, But You Are Most Definitely Not Black
Kylie and Kendall might have money, but there is one thing that they don’t have. MELANIN!!! They can try act black and mimic our culture all they want, but they’ll never be black. It just goes to show that white women are just as problematic as the white man.
2Pac Warned Us About People Like You
Kylie and Kendall absolutely disrespected 2pac. That guy is a pioneer of the black community. His beautiful mother Afeni Shakur was a black Panther. 2pac wouldn’t approve of their bullshit t-shirts. Kendall Jenner said she was a fan of 2pac. She clearly didn’t get the message he was trying to send out!!
How Can White People Continue To Try Defend These Dirty Culture Vultures?
All these crazy Kylie and Kendall Jenner stans are immediately jumping to their defence. The Kardashians and Jenners have been feeding off of black culture for far too long. Anyone who supports them should be ashamed of themselves
“The Jealous Ass Crackers.” – The Notorious B.I.G
Biggie Smalls was one of the best rappers of his time! His name still lives on to this very day. Kylie and Kendall tried affiliating themselves with Biggie for the sake of profit. That’s not how you pay homage. These jealous ass crackers need to stay in their God damn lane.
Who Your Real Friends? We All Came From The Bottom!
Where was uncle Kanye when all of this was happening? He’s probably still stuck in the sunken place. That’s what happens when you marry a white woman. She takes your soul and you are no longer your true self.

(NARRATED BY MORGAN FREEMAN)
Ever since he was a little boy, Josh Robert Thompson has been talking to himself.
At an early age, Josh took to playing with puppets and building cardboard talk show sets in his basement. Realizing this wasn't just a phase, Josh's parents did the only sensible thing: they shipped him off to Los Angeles.
It was there that Josh happened upon a ramshackle local TV studio where, for the next ten years (1998-2008), he would produce countless variety shows, honing his original characters and improv skills.
"Howard Stern Show" fans remember Josh as the voice of "Fake" Arnold Schwarzenegger, which he performed from 2003-2011. (His classic George Takei prank call is now hailed as one of the Top 10 moments in Stern Show history.)
A series regular on "Family Guy" since 2011, Josh's wide range of original voices and celebrity impressions can also be heard in "The Angry Birds Movie," "Robot Chicken," "Man Seeking Woman," and in popular video games like "Final Fantasy" and "Call of Duty."
Josh's big break came in early 2007, when he began appearing on "The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson" as Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Robert De Niro, the voice of Morgan Freeman and many others. But it was his role as Craig Ferguson's robot skeleton sidekick, Geoff Peterson, that would endear him to viewers until the show's final bow in December 2014.
As a stand-up, Josh has toured all over the U.S. and Canada, playing in such legendary venues as The Chicago Theater and Radio City Music Hall.
In film, he stars in the romantic comedy "Nowhere Girl, the indie supernatural thriller "Revelator," and the upcoming web series, "F#cking 40."
Currently, Josh is the voice of "Skull" in the Netflix animated series "Skylanders Academy" and is developing a new comedy/variety series for Lionsgate Television. He also hosts the "Joshin' Around Podcast" and the forthcoming "Josh Robert Thompson Show" on YouTube.

Caitlyn Jenner (formerly Bruce), made waves around the world when the former Olympic gold medalist introduced herself as a woman. By doing so, she has become the most well-known transgender woman in recent history, signaling a cultural shift in how we view the transgender population. Her transformation gained widespread support from the general public, other celebrities and even the President of the United States.
But what is not being talked about is the transformative surgery Caitlyn went through in order to achieve her stunning good looks. It’s reported that she underwent a 10-hour surgery that made her facial features look more feminine.
The surgery was actually a set of multiple procedures done all at once. Here are a few of the procedures Caitlyn had performed:
- Reshaping the jawbone. Most men have a pretty prominent jaw line, so surgeons had to go in and literally take out part of Caitlyn’s jaw to soften the look.
- Brow lift. This is also known as a “forehead lift” which is used to smooth out forehead wrinkles and the areas around the eyes. If you look at before and after pictures of Caitlyn, you can see her smooth new features that make her look even more feminine.
- Botox injections. Reports say that these injections were done primarily around the jaw area.
- Shaving down the Adam’s apple. If you look at pre-op pictures of Caitlyn Jenner, you’d notice she has a prominent Adam’s apple. After the surgery, her neckline looks much more feminine with nothing jutting out.
- Breast augmentation. Caitlyn received breast implants for a more curvy bust line. Reports say she wore a special post-op support bra for a month afterwards to let her new breasts heal. Reports also say they look spectacular!
The above five are only the procedures we know about. There’s no doubt Caitlyn also had several body modification procedures performed (on top of breast implants).
Her doctors also noted that Caitlyn healed exceptionally fast, which they attribute to her being in great shape (being an Olympic athlete tends to do that). The only “complication” was an anxiety attack after the surgery. But given the amount of work done and how different she looks, they say that it’s a normal reaction for many patients.
Caitlyn Jenner’s transformation from man to woman shows how far cosmetic surgery has come in the last few decades.
If you’re interested in any facial cosmetic procedures, please call us for a free consultation. Our board-certified doctors will work closely with you to help you achieve the look you’ve always wanted.

Get your fix of music, movies, art, fashion, and more in these artistic articles

Two of the most illustrious makeup moguls on the scene today, Kat Von D and Jeffree Star, were once close friends. According to Kat, in a video she released early yesterday morning on her YouTube channel, she gave him the idea to start a makeup line, she got him a meeting at the factory that made her Everlasting Liquid Lipsticks, and even got her close personal friend to design Jeffree’s logo. Now, all of you reading may find this as surprising as I did because I’ve never heard Jeffree say anything to hint at that, but Kat made a good point by noting how Jeffree would never let anyone steal his thunder.
This drama started on Monday night when Kat posted to her personal Instagram stating her choice to “disassociate” herself from not only him, but his brand as well. In her video, she elaborates on her decision. “I’ve been firsthand witness to a lot of things […] just the way he treats not only his fans, brands, and, I think, anybody that even intimidates him slightly, it’s like a very easy trigger for him to just attack.” She states, clearly exasperated. “I don’t want my fans or followers to think that that’s a good example of how we should be with each other.” She goes on to talk about how, before all of the drama, she had always painted Jeffree to be this outsider who was a major inspiration to his fans who didn’t really know where to fit in the world, but she now wonders if that part of Jeffree was ever even there.
She spends a large part of the video talking about her friend, BJ, who designed Jeffree’s logo, but never was compensated. Jeffree even went as far as to not only block BJ’s cell number, but also the landline that BJ had called him on after that. When Kat found out and texted Jeffree about it, he then blocked her. If you scroll through the comments of Jeffree’s latest Instagram post, you’ll see that people have started the hashtag “#paybj”, but for every one of those comments, there are five people defending Jeffree and saying they’re going to boycott Kat.
Watching Kat’s video was like watching Dr. Frankenstien talk about his monster. She said that she wishes she had never helped him out as much as she did early on because of the “attention-seeking, fame-driven, money-driven monster” that he has become. She implores to Jeffree, whom she said in the video will no doubt watch the video: “You have the option to do the right thing, why not do that?”
Jeffree has since made a statement on his Snapchat, calmly saying that Kat’s video was “full of some really interesting lies and propaganda”. He says that there are two sides to every story and will be making a video that will most likely be up by the time you’re reading this. He went on to attack, still speaking calmly, but with definite malice in his tone, about how she would use her five million followers to talk about Jeffree rather than the victims of the Pulse shooting in Orlando, or all of the innocent black lives lost.
What do you think about this stir within the fashion community? Will you still support Jeffree Star Cosmetics? Let us know in the comments.

Perspectives Change After Death
Most of the general public did not care about Michael Jackson’s physical or emotional health a week ago. Perhaps they cared about their money they shelled out for a ticket to his forthcoming concert series which there was no guarantee he’d perform. Perhaps they cared about his ability to be a capable parent and his interactions with his children and friends of his children. For the most part though, they didn’t care about him at all, except as a pop icon of decades past.
But now that he has died everyone cares. They say they are about him, for his family, for the tragedy that he died at the age of 50, for his life in isolation, for his past full of trauma. They care about finding out the “truth!” about what really caused his death and how the situation was handled.
I think there is a perversion in that. It’s really no ones business. It’s also incredibly odd to me that one day people can so easily ridicule him, speculate about him, but enjoy listening to his music… and then the next, after he’s dead, be upset and “in mourning” over a great beloved icon. Perhaps that’s harsh of me to say, because I understand the complexity of emotional process behind it… it still bugs me though.
I was never really a fan of Michael Jackson. I liked a few of his songs. I knew a few vague points about his past and who he was and how he lived but I didn’t pay close attention. I never followed the story close enough to have an opinion on whether or not he was a pedophile but my intuitive leaning was, and is, no he wasn’t. Did he have a very bizarre unconventional way of interacting with children? Yes. That doesn’t mean he molested them. But again, I don’t know details that were reported, and even if I did, that wouldn’t give me any more authority to throw my opinion out there.
From what I did observe through the filter of pop culture, I knew he had been terribly abused physically, verbally, and emotionally as a child by his father. In my mind, that made completely sense in direct connection to his intensely damaged persona of the latter years which I believe (again, intuitively) that he suffered from Body Dysmorphic Disorder. There really isn’t a doubt in my mind about that. I’ve noticed a lot of articles popping up since his death speculating he had an eating disorder which contributed to his death. Perhaps, but I don’t really understand why this is being pushed. Whose agenda are you trying to push here? To prove he died from complications from anorexia, would that somehow put eating disorders into the mainstream eye in a more credible way to get better treatment for those who suffer? I doubt it. Would he help show that men also suffer from eating disorders? Again, I doubt it, but perhaps. Are people trying to find any way to feel relatable to him? Hm?
In the end it doesn’t matter. What matters is nobody could help him, which is always tragic. But in this case, I find it rather infuriating. He was surrounded by enablers and those in his life who did truly care about him were not able to keep him safe from all who put money and status above personal health.
The two things I read in lieu of Michael’s death that I appreciated (not sure how I can appreciate something being completely removed from the situation… but still…) was the post Deepak Chopra wrote on The Huffington Post and the short but intense blog Lisa Marie Presley wrote on her myspace.
He was a real person behind the incredible, incredible hype. A person who was highly sensitive, fantastical, brilliant, and so very damaged.

What do the writers Ernest Hemingway, Charles Dickens, and Stephen Fry; the singers Frank Sinatra, Sinéad O’Connor, and Kerry Katona; the actresses Catherine Zeta-Jones, Marilyn Monroe and Vivien Leigh all have in common? There are all intimately acquainted with what Laurence Olivier called the uncannily evil monster – manic depression – bipolar disorder. Daniel Goleman describes bipolar disorder as a cycle of paralyzing depressions alternating with manic episodes that mix chaotic elation with grandiosity, with irritation and rage. Like Olivier I am personally acquainted with this monster.
Today on the centenary of her birth I would like to remember a great actress. Vivian Mary Hartly was born on 5th of November, 1913 in Darjeeling, India. Her father Ernest Hartly was a British cavalry officer. Her mother Gertrude Mary Frances (Née Yackgee) a half Irish, half Bengali catholic. Vivien was raised catholic and her mother also instilled in her a great love of stories. She even had her perform on a stage at age 3. At age 6 she was sent to a convent boarding school in England and one of her friends there was Maureen O’Sullivan. She told Maureen she would be a great actress. At age 14 her father took her out of school and she travelled Europe with him.
At age 18 she returned to London and enrolled in the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts to train to be an actress. Soon after she saw barrister Herbert Leigh Holman, 15 years her senior, riding a horse and decided she would marry him. In 1932 she married Leigh Holman and 10 months later their daughter Suzanne was born. She had given up RADA when marrying but soon started to take on small roles in movies and plays. Her agent was not happy with the name Vivian Holman and wanted her to call herself April Morn. She didn’t but he was happy when she took her husband’s middle name and changed the spelling of Vivian to use an e to distinguish her name as female.
She got bigger and bigger roles in plays and was soon introduced to Laurence Olivier. They played lovers in the play ‘Fire over England’ in 1937 and during its run became lovers. They moved in together but their respective spouses refused divorces at the time. He saw a glimpse on the monster when she played Oephelia to his Hamlet in Elsinore, Denmark. She had a major mood swing but they patched things up.
While recovering from a leg injury at that time she read the Margaret Mitchell novel ‘Gone with the Wind’. She was determined to play Scarlet O’Hara in the upcoming David O. Selznick production. It so happened that Olivier’s agent in America was Myron, Selznick’s brother and he worked to get her the role. He brought her to the filming of the first scene – the burning of Atlanta – the burning of some old sets at MGM in Hollywood and she was introduced to Selznick and got the role. She worked very hard at it and was duly rewarded with the best actress oscar. She was now a big star.
In 1940 Vivien married Laurence Olivier after Jill Esmonde agreed to divorce Olivier and Holman agreed to divorce her. Jill got custody of Olivier’s son, Tarquin and Holman custody of Suzanne. She worked a lot in the 40’s with and without Larry. After a miscarriage in 1945 she became profoundly depressed. There were now frequent rows between the two. On a tour of Australia and New Zealand in 1948 they had frequent disputes. She refused to go on stage in Christchurch and he slapped her and she hit him back. She was also sexually insatiable at the time and he could not satisfy her. She frequently propositioned delivery men and others. Larry was a bit relieved when she started an affair with actor Peter Finch.
She soon started work on her other great role, again as a southern belle. For 9 months she played Blanche Dubois in the Tennessee Williams play, ‘A Streetcar named Desire’. She acted in the movie with costar, Marlon Brando. She won her second academy award, but the role was difficult. Playing a mentally unstable character tipped her into madness. Throughout the 50’s she worked on often with Olivier. However, the moods of anger or depression were becoming more frequent. Her affair with Peter Finch ended. Larry could no longer manage her. Her ex-husband, Leigh Holman, often moved in to help smooth things. In 1958 she met actor Jack Merivale. He was aware of her condition and told Olivier he would look after her. She lived with him until the end of her life. Olivier remarried Joan Plowright in 1960.
On the 7th of July, 1967 Vivien Leigh died in her home in London of tuberculosis. Olivier helped with the funeral arrangements. He said of her
“I shall never love anybody as much as Vivien but it isn't possible to live with her and do my work. I just can't keep it up. She's too exhausting for me.”
“Throughout her possession by that uncannily evil monster, manic depression, with its deadly ever-tightening spirals, she retained her own individual canniness – an ability to disguise her true mental condition from almost all except me, for whom she could hardly be expected to take the trouble.”
Today on the centenary of her birth please all think about Vivien and her family. Please also think of the millions of others and their families who have to deal everyday with the uncannily evil monster, manic depression, bipolar disorder.


Manik Khan …
…is the youngest son of the legendary maestro, Ustad Ali Akbar Khan. His life has been steeped in the ancient tradition of North Indian classical music since birth; his childhood was spent listening to his father in countless concerts, and attending his classes at the Ali Akbar College of Music.
He initially started studying Tabla under the tutelage of Pandit Swapan Chaudhuri, but wanting to follow in the footsteps of his family, began his formal training in the Sarod with his father at the age of 13. Manik spent his formative years accompanying his father and elder brother (Alam Khan) on stage, touring for the last decade of his father’s extensive performance career.
Alongside a solo concert career, he has worked with various ensembles to present his father’s music in a way that has seldom been heard before. This includes working with Bay Area schools to bring Indian Classical Music to their youth orchestras, and collaborating with conductor Michael Morgan and the Fremont Symphony Orchestra.
Manik resides in the San Francisco Bay Area, where he continues his musical studies with his elder brother. He currently is teaching at the Ali Akbar College of Music, and is working to preserve and continue his family’s legacy – helping to keep this tradition of India’s rich cultural history alive and flourishing.
…has spent his entire life immersed in the tradition of Indian Classical Percussion. The son of Maestro Swapan Chaudhuri and a disciple of Ustad Ali Akbar Khan, Nilan received his first Tabla lesson from his father at the age of five.
Drawing inspiration from his father’s innovative and revolutionary approach to classical Tabla solo, Nilan was determined from a young age to be proficient as a soloist. He presented his first public Tabla solo at the age of eleven, at the Ali Akbar College of Music in San Rafael in the presence of Maestro Ali Akbar Khan. Within months of his first recital, sensing his passion and devotion to the art form, Nilan was accepted as a ganda bandan disciple of Khansahib’s and underwent the sacred ceremony in which the Guru ties a thread around the disciple’s hand, initiating a life long bond and blessing. Over the course of the next decade, Nilan would go on to lead the AACM youth Tabla Ensemble, performing various arrangements of his father’s compositions in ensemble format throughout the United States and India. It was during these formative years that Nilan was introduced to the world of Tabla accompaniment by Maestro Ali Akbar Khan, providing rhythmic support for his vocal and instrumental classes at the College.

After meeting the editorial director of Ladygunn magazine, Heather Seidler (such an inspiration), she decided she wanted to use some of my jewelry pieces for the VIP gift bags at the Ladygunn Issue #9 Launch Event. Of course I was interested and happy to get to be a part of the event. Each piece was hand picked for the celebrities/VIP guests attending the event.
The event was a success and over 800 attendees came throughout the night. I attended with a few close friends and had a blast. Kitten and Neon Hitch both did amazing performances at the party and put on a very good show. Neon Hitch had one of the best stage presences I had seen yet.

As most know the homie Nipsey Hussle recently passed away which had a great impact on the industry and fans worldwide.
To me personally I always supported Nipsey from the first time I came across his music in 2007. At the time I was heavy in the mixtape game especially on the West Coast and he was one of the new artists I had reached out to and supported ever since. He was a humble artist and always happy to network and it is seen today how much he actually did, which goes way beyond music.
I watched him grow and continued to spin his music all these years and since his passing I can see he had such a positive impact on so many people across the globe. The long awaited #VictoryLap album was the best of 2018 to me and he left on such a super high from this earth. I would call him a modern day 2Pac as he had so much more to offer but yet had achieved so much at the young age of 33.
My condolences go out to his immediate family and close friends and to the people I respect and network with that knew him and were close to him also out in Cali.
In celebration of his life I designed a custom platinum plaque commemorating his most influential works to date and offering the custom design for fans at no addtional charge.
Long Live Nip and remember The Marathon Continues.
Keep your head up Blacc Sam I got you homie! #AllMoneyIn

Daily Mail – Further developments following the Joanne Mjadzelics acquittal.
Michael Wolkind secured the acquittal of Joanne Mjadzelics, former girlfriend, of the Lost Prophets singer, the sex pervert Ian Watkins. Michael Wolkind QC, defending, told jurors that police chose not to investigate the allegations against Watkins because he was a famous musician. ‘Babies could have been saved if Joanne had been taken seriously but Watkins was a famous rock star so it was different,’ he said. ‘She wasn’t believed and it wasn’t properly investigated. What was she supposed to do? ‘If she had not kept on seeing Watkins would he and the two mothers be locked up now? No. She desperately played along with Watkins to track him.’

Salman Khan, who is known for his large-heartedness, recently had to borrow some money from his bodyguards after partying in Bandra.
Before all you readers out there assume that the Bhaijaan is broke, let us clarify the situation. It seems that Sallu had been partying at a renowned Bandra joint and when the superstar stepped out late in the night, he spotted some kids selling colouring books. When they requested theDabangg dude to buy some books from them, Salman borrowed some cash from his bodyguards as he was only carrying credit cards on him and brought a smile on the faces of the kids by buying their books and paying them more than what the books cost.
Salman will be next seen in YRF flick Sultan, which also stars Anushka Sharma.


Social media is rising as the dominant force in marketing and advertising, and this is also true in the arts and entertainment world. Artists are developing newer and more innovative ways of marketing themselves online more and more.
Social media marketing in entertainment is perhaps the most important way for artists to get their work into the public consciousness.
Perhaps the pinnacle of social media marketing in entertainment is Taylor Swift. You don’t have to be a fan of her music to know that she is a marketing genius. Her Twitter and Instagram campaigns for her new album 1989 are the stuff of legend.
You might say, “But she was already massively popular!”
While this is true, she is perhaps even more so now, and it’s all due to her relentless social media posts and clever campaigns.
So where did this all get started?
A couple of months before 1989’s release, she released the album’s first single and video on Yahoo!. This utilized two very key methods for online marketing: clever use of multimedia and online publishing, but the social media circus surrounding the album had yet to begin.
What happened next?
A very important aspect of social media is hashtags. Taylor Swift created the hashtags #TS1989 and #5HoursUntilOutOfTheWoods. These hashtags were very unique to her, and her legion of Twitter and Instagram followers spread them faster tha a bullet train in Tokyo.
Perhaps more importantly, she took complete control over her social media accounts. Fans knew that they were interacting with the one and only Taylor Swift and not some employee or marketing agency.
The way Ms. Swift interacts with her fans, such as inviting them through social media contests to her homes to listen to the album and surprising a select few fans with Christmas presents, shows that she does care about her fans and wants them to come along for the ride.
Also important is the fact that she took to social media to let Apple know that their plan to not pay artists during their three-month free trial was not a way to treat those who create music. This helped her not only win over fans, but also other artists and musicians.
Why is this important?
This shows exactly how artists and musicians can use social media marketing in entertainment to spread the word about their creative projects and help them to keep a loyal fanbase.
The music industry was greatly disrupted by the internet and failed to adapt. The old guard stood their ground and maintained their overly conservative approach to marketing and revenue building, leaving many artists out in the cold. Taylor Swift has shown, though, that artists can take their marketing back into their own hands.
Thanks to T-Swift, social media marketing in entertainment will never be the same. Perhaps the old guard (and even you) can learn a thing or two from this brilliant, young artist.

Today it was announced that the inquest into the death of Amy Winehouse had recorded a verdict of death by misadventure, after she was found to have had 5 times the legal drink-drive limit of alcohol in her blood when she died.
I shot this photo of Amy Winehouse on the 20th July 2010, 3 days short of a year before she tragically died at her home in Camden, North London.
Throughout 2009 and 2010 I worked as a live music and band photographer for publications like the NME, UNCUT and The Guardian.
This photograph was not taken during one of her performances. In fact, surprisingly at this point Amy Winehouse had briefly slipped away from the limelight of gossip pages in the UK's daily tabloids.
I was photographing a sold-out Nas and Damian Marley 'Distant Relatives' performance at Hammersmith Apollo. It was almost at the end of the standard 3 song allocated shooting time when I noticed her at the side of the stage, behind the speaker stack. As I passed her I fired off 2 shots. the second of which is this one.
I wasn't ever a fan of Amy Winehouse, I don't own any of her music and I only ever followed her life and exploits in the most cursory way. But I was touched by the inevitably tragic circumstances by which her short life came to an end.
It's a photograph I have come back to repeatedly over the past year or so. It's a photograph whose meaning has shifted for me, making the transition from a standard live music capture to a contemplative document of a complicated individual. Now, three months after her untimely, but sadly not unexpected death, it feels like this image in some way, for me, captures the loneliness and complexity of her life and ultimately her death.


Almost an Actress | Moderately Modelish | Vaguely Vocalist-like
Leigh has enjoyed success in various branches of the entertainment industry since moving to the Cleveland area from Chicago in 1998. In Chicago, she studied TV/Film production at Columbia College Chicago and finished her BA at The University of Akron in Communications/PR. After graduating, Leigh spent three years as the PR Assistant at the Carousel Dinner Theater. She’s been a professional singer since 2003, most recently on various products for American Greetings as well as in her wedding band of 11 years, The Avenue, of which she is a founding member.
I had the pleasure of working with Leigh on the set of my film “Swipe Right” and she is an absolutely fantastic person and actress. She showed up early to her call times and was always very patient between camera setups and long shoot days. Leigh has the skills to pull and push the audience’s emotions and has definitely enhanced the overall film by taking on the character she played and making it exactly what I imagined in my head. I hope to one day work with her again! Des Matelske
I had the pleasure of working with Leigh on the set of Maestro and found her to be a true professional. It was a joy to watch her bring the character I had written to life. She was very focused on set and overall, an integral part of our award-winning team. I look forward to doing more films with Leigh. Dan Edwards, Producer/Writer

Jolie introduced alone four from the children, namely, Maddox, Pax, Zahara and Shiloh. Zahara used an Armani dress, while Shiloh, Pax and Maddox complemented their mother and sister by putting on various shades of deep blue, black and white-colored.
Jolie formerly opened up up about her children and her parenting style throughout an interview with BBC Radio. She described that they encourages her children to create their very own choices.
“I believe like the majority of parents we attempt our very best to insert nutrients so we can’t control exactly what they are uncovered to,” the actress stated. “There are specific realities to teenagers, and you also become acquainted with our generation does not understand 1 / 2 of what they are doing using their tech, to allow them to circumvent us pretty easy.”
“They’re, all have a very good rebellious streak that’s wonderful and curious, and I’m not going these to be perfectly socialized little people who just say what’s absolutely appropriate since i let them know or simply because they believe that it’s ? they need to end up,” she ongoing.
Jolie as well as their kids’ outings come among rumors that Pitt is fixing your relationship with ex-wife Jennifer Aniston. The rumors stemmed from Pitt’s appearance in the “Buddies” star’s lavish 50th birthday party earlier this year.
The newest tabloids to write a bogus report about Pitt’s love existence is within Touch, which lately released a tale he and Aniston have selected up where they ended. However, Pitt only found Aniston’s party to exhibit his support like a friend, and they’re certainly not fixing your relationship, E!


It was great to play a couple of songs with Jessica Huebner and Claire Wagner on the McCabe’s Concert Stage for this year’s Holiday Show. It’s been a dream of mine to play Stan Rogers’ poignant “First Christmas Away from Home” on that stage for some time.
Stan Rogers was a much revered Canadian singer-songwriter who died, tragically, in a plane accident on June 2nd, 1983. He was only 33 years old. One of his last concerts was given five days before, on May 28th, at McCabe’s.
We also performed “The Secret of Christmas” written by Van Heusen and Cahn. I heard Ella Fitzgerald’s version of it last year, for the first time, and fell in love with it.


John Finlayson after Sir Joshua Reynolds
Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Gloucester.
13¾ x 19¾ inches
Born out of wedlock but beautiful, Maria Walpole's life was to be one of sensation and scandal. She was most fortunate to have the patronage of her uncle, Sir Horace Walpole, who had great ambitions for he and thought her the finest catch in England: "You may imagine how charming she is when her only fault, if one must find one, is that her face is rather too round". A successful first marriage to the Earl Waldgrave (20 years her senior!) brought her 3 ravishing daughters and social standing but it was her second, secret, marriage in 1766 to George III's brother, William the Duke of Gloucester, that propelled her onto the front pages. The king refused to believe the rumours that his brother had wed an illegitimate commoner, sent the duke packing abroad and was only forced to reconcile with the couple when their first child was born in 1773. Frustratingly for Maria further scandal was about to rock the boat when her lady in waiting, Lady Almeria Carpenter, took the duke to her bed. They established a menage a trois and Maria compensated for the duke's infidelity with vigorous religious fervour. Here we see her retrospectively in widow's weeds soon after Waldegrave's death contemplating what lies ahead.£1500

“Some guys wear their hearts on their sleeve. Tomi Swick wears his on his chest. At least that what it looked like at the 2007 Juno Awards when he was called to the podium to receive his Juno for New Artist of the Year. After taking hold of the shiny glass trophy, a bewildered Swick turned to the camera and revealed a shout out to his hometown, Hamilton, splayed across his t-shirt.

“Toy Story,” the pioneering CGI film by Pixar, introduced audiences to a world where toys come to life. Central to this story was Buzz Lightyear, a confident space ranger action figure. The casting process for Buzz was crucial, as the character needed to embody both heroism and humor. Initially, Billy Crystal was considered for the role but declined, opening the door for other actors. Tim Allen, known for his role in “Home Improvement,” caught the attention of Pixar with his unique blend of machismo and comedic talent, making him a strong candidate for the voice of Buzz.
Tim Allen’s Audition and Impact
Allen’s audition for Buzz Lightyear was a pivotal moment. Reading lines that highlighted Buzz’s bravado and comical obliviousness, Allen showcased his ability to balance heroism with humor, a trait essential for the character. His established popularity from “Home Improvement” also played a role, promising to draw in audiences. Once cast, Allen’s interpretation of Buzz Lightyear added significant depth to the character, striking a perfect balance between a delusional hero and a lovable companion. His chemistry with Tom Hanks, who voiced Woody, further enriched the film’s appeal.
A Lasting Legacy in Animation
Tim Allen’s portrayal of Buzz Lightyear in “Toy Story” is more than just a voice acting triumph; it’s a fundamental part of the film’s legacy. His performance helped define Buzz as an iconic character in animation history, contributing significantly to the movie’s success and enduring popularity. Allen’s role in “Toy Story” not only highlights the importance of casting in animation but also underscores how a voice actor can bring depth and memorability to a character, leaving a lasting impact on popular culture.
Tim Allen’s journey to becoming Buzz Lightyear exemplifies the magic of perfect casting in animation. His portrayal brought to life a character who is both heroic and hilariously out of touch, resonating with audiences of all ages.

They weren’t the best thing he ever did, or the one which we’ll cherish the most.

She has performed as special guest on the famous "Monday night at Birdland” in New York. In 2012 Dasha had a lot of success on the international stages of Thailand and Russia.
Her debut album "Quality Time” (2011), released on the renowned Maxanter Records label, brought her critical acclaim by the Dutch press, stating:

Edie Sedgwick, pure inspiration
Haytor‘s masculine inspiration and striking features remind us of Edie Sedgwick, muse of two great male artists, Andy Warhol and Bob Dylan who, by the way, happened to be a true lover of striped shirts.
Eddie was born into a well-to-do family in 1943 in Santa Barbara, California. It was the seventh of eight brothers. She had a very complicated childhood and adolescence, due in part to the difficulties he had to face as the result of a broken family.
With only 21 years old she moved to New York. At first she spent most of his time going to wild parties, although his real dream was to act, dance and work as a model. It was at a party for Tennessee Williams in 1965 when he met the man who would soon launch his career: Andy Warhol.
When Sedgwick arrived at the famous Factory, Warhol was filming Vinyl, a movie for men. At the last moment the artist decided to give Sedgwick a small five-minute role in which he did not stop smoking and dancing a little. That day the Warhol-Sedgwick duo was born.
Warhol put her as the protagonist of at least 10 of his films. Everyone in the pop art subculture scene knew the name of Edie Sedgwick and was labeled the Vanity Fair Girl of the Year in 1965.
Although Warhol and his muse were inseparable for a time, it did not last long. In the summer of 1965, Sedgwick began to lose faith in Warhol, believing more and more that his films made him look foolish. In addition, she began to gain interest in another person… Bob Dylan. Edie met Bob at The Factory. Never was confirmed any official romance between the two, but their flirting did not go unnoticed. Many have speculated that Dylan’s hits “Leopard-Skin Pill-Box Hat”, “Just Like a Woman” and “Like a Rolling Stone” were all about Sedgwick. A passionate woman with great dreams that inspired the most recognized artists of the time. Unfortunately, Edie died at age 28 from an overdose of barbiturates.


The news has been reporting that actor Stephen Collins, otherwise known as Eric Camden on 7th Heaven, admitted to molesting at least three girls. He was taped during a therapy session when he made this confession and the tape has recently been released.
Sigh. I’m guessing most people reacted with shock and disappointment. How could a man who played the role of pastor and portrayed a wholesome character on TV turn out to be this monster? It’s sad that because he is a public figure he will be getting a lot of negative attention from now on and many people’s opinions about him will be forever altered. People are going to be critical and judgmental. And I don’t blame them. But at the same time, I wonder how these people would feel if they had been filmed during their worst moments and those had been released to the public? Most private moments have never been filmed. Maybe many of them happened when no one else was around. But I’d like to think, whether we want them to be remembered or not, someone does know about each and every one of those moments. For me, it’s God. For you, it may be something or someone else.
So before we judge him, let us remember that he is a good actor and he has been doing what he loves to do for a long time, despite recent headlines. We need to hope for the best and let him deal with his character. Give him a chance because we don’t know the full story. That story is between him and God. Let God be the ultimate judge of his character. And us? Spread love, not hate.
Here’s me talking about it if you want to see:

Riley Catherall is an Alt-Country Singer-Songwriter based in Melbourne whose graceful trajectory into the Australian Alt-Country Music world has not gone unnoticed. Working with some of the industry’s finest for his first EP, Venture In Vain, Riley has built a credible status as a one of the country’s most promising songwriters.
He has now released his debut full length album, “When I Go”, which is an amalgamation of songs about leaving, losing love, and finding somewhere to settle down. National praise came in spades for singles “Mother Please”, “Vacant Lot” and “Leave Me Out To Dry” – all receiving extensive streams and national airplay.

Another national tour has been scheduled and rescheduled again to promote his album which will grant those who get along an insight into the creative workings of a patient and arresting storyteller in the genesis of his career.


With prep for the legendary sketch comedy show’s 44th season underway, NBC just announced some surprising programming change. Indeed, according to the network’s Fall line-up, Saturday Night Live will now be airing on Mondays at 6 p.m.
When asked to comment, creator Lorne Michaels not only confirmed the news, but revealed that the show would also be taped on the prior Thursday afternoons.
“I haven’t had my weekends in 43 years,” Michaels explained. “I’m tired. In hindsight, we probably should have gone for a title that stated what we do, not when and how. It would have given us more leverage [….] But what do you want me to do now? Call it Monday Evening Pre-Recorded? I don’t think so.”


…“All in the Family” was Ms. Stapleton’s first television series, but before that she had appeared as a guest on several shows, including “Dr. Kildare,” “My Three Sons,” “Car 54, Where Are You?” and the courtroom drama “The Defenders,” in which she played the owner of a boardinghouse who accused a tenant — played by Mr. O’Connor — of murder.
Ms. Stapleton bowed out of “All in the Family” as a series regular in 1979, but she appeared in several episodes the next year, after the title of the show had been changed to “Archie Bunker’s Place.” The opening episode of the second season of “Archie Bunker’s Place” dealt with the aftermath of Edith’s death.
After “All in the Family,” Ms. Stapleton purposely sought out roles that would separate her from Edith, and in so doing she led a busy and varied, if less celebrated, performing life. She turned down a chance to star as Jessica Fletcher, the middle-aged mystery writer at the center of “Murder, She Wrote,” which became a long-running hit with Angela Lansbury.
But she appeared as a guest on numerous television series, including “Caroline in the City” and “Murphy Brown”; starred with Whoopi Goldberg in a short-lived series, “Bagdad Café”; did turns in films (“You’ve Got Mail,” “Michael”); and made several television movies, including “Eleanor: First Lady of the World” (1982), in which she starred as Eleanor Roosevelt. The film led to a one-woman show that toured the country.
Perhaps the most significant work of her later life, however, was Off Broadway, where she performed in challenging works by Mr. Foote (“The Carpetbagger’s Children”), John Osborne (“The Entertainer”) and Harold Pinter (“Mountain Language,” “The Birthday Party”) to sterling reviews.
“She brings supreme comic obtuseness to Meg, the pathetic proprietor of a shabby seaside boarding house,” Frank Rich of The Times wrote of Ms. Stapleton’s performance in “The Birthday Party.” Contrasting her role with that of her “broadly drawn Edith Bunker,” Mr. Rich concluded, “Ms. Stapleton’s Meg is the kind of spiritually bankrupt modern survivor who makes one question the value of survival.”
After “All in the Family,” it was Ms. Stapleton’s lot to live in Edith’s wake. In 1977, she was one of 45 International Women’s Year commissioners who convened the National Women’s Conference in Houston, a federally financed gathering of 2000 delegates from the 50 states, for the purpose of helping to form national policy on women’s issues.
On the third day of the conference, Ms. Stapleton left the commissioners’ seating area and wandered onto the conference floor among the delegates. She was besieged.
“Look, it’s Edith!” delegates and photographers shouted. “Look, it’s Edith!”


On April 4th 2017, the republic of Senegal celebrated its 67th year of independence from France. And with that in mind, I thought now would be the perfect time to introduce to those who don’t already know, the Senegalse model, Khoudia Diop.
This young lady’s stunning photos and inspirational videos have been making the rounds on various social media platforms. Diop, also known as the Melanin Goddess (YAAAAAS GURLL!!!), is the epitome of the perfect role model. Although she was bullied growing up due to her dark complexion, she used those moments as a lesson to embrace her God-given looks and is encouraging girls and women out there to do the same.
On the day of Senegal’s independence, OkayAfrica posted an article which featured sensational images from a photoshoot Diop took part in that showcased traditional attire from the Senegalese caste that her family comes from; this caste is called Nyenyo.
Victoria Jones from The Colored Girl explains that “Nyenyo, also known as ‘teug’ or ‘ngengo,’ are the blacksmiths and metalworkers of the Senegalese caste system. In her family’s case, they are jewelry makers and gold workers”. She also adds by saying that “…Khoudia embraces her Nyenyo heritage and doesn’t see the label as a hindrance.” And boy does she ever!!!
Take a gander at some of the pictures below. More photos and an interview with the Melanin Goddess herself can he found here.
