The following year, Taylor divorced Fisher and married Burton. Ironically, MGM had given her the role abroad as a means of breaking up her affair with the director Stanley Donen. Taylor and Wilding were married in , at a London registry office. Her sons, Michael and Christopher, were both born by caesarean section, in and respectively. By the marriage began to totter. She was 24, and becoming one of the most sought-after stars in Hollywood, especially after her performance in Stevens's Giant, during which she formed warm relationships with her co-stars, Rock Hudson and James Dean.
Wilding was middle-aged and his career was fading, although she got him an MGM contract. Clearly the age gap, which Taylor had insisted was unimportant at the outset, played an important part in the break-up of the marriage, and they agreed to an amicable divorce. Ironically, the man she was to marry next was five years older than Wilding.
But the flamboyant impresario Mike Todd real name Avrom Goldbogen , the begetter of Around the World in 80 Days , was noted for his youthful spirit and his abundant energy. In the same year, a daughter, Liza, was born, also by caesarean, and both mother and child nearly died.
Taylor was advised never to have another baby. A mere seven months later, Todd's private plane, Lucky Liz, in which he was flying to New York, crashed in a storm near Albuquerque leaving no survivors.
Taylor had wanted to accompany her husband on the flight but she was persuaded to stay at home because of a flu virus. On hearing of the crash, she screamed so loudly that neighbours a few doors away could hear her, and she had to be drugged to prevent her from taking her own life. Gradually, Taylor came out of seclusion and completed Cat On a Hot Tin Roof, another Williams adaptation, which she had already been filming when Todd was killed.
Despite, or because of, her state of mind, she gave one of her most finely wrought performances as the sexually frustrated Maggie. Her voice, never her strong point, seemed to have gained in power, and she matched Paul Newman and Burl Ives blow for blow. The film's box-office potential was increased further by the gossip surrounding Taylor and Fisher. Taylor, who had been cast as the grieving widow, now found herself in the role of the vamp who wrecked the Fishers' apparently idyllic marriage.webmail.cmnv.org/gowe-how-to.php
Elizabeth Taylor Bequeathed Her Estate to Her Ex-Husband
The outraged moralistic public was unaware that the Fisher-Reynolds marriage was already in tatters. Taylor was in London where she was completing Suddenly, Last Summer in which she brilliantly played Katharine Hepburn's mentally-disturbed niece , when the producer Walter Wanger offered her the title role in Cleopatra. To everyone's astonishment, 20th Century-Fox agreed to her terms, making her the highest-paid performer for a single film in the history of Hollywood to that date.
When filming on Cleopatra started at Pinewood studios, Peter Finch was Julius Caesar and Stephen Boyd was Mark Antony, although neither of them was to see their leading lady for more than a month. Taylor was first stricken with a cold, then a fever, then an infected tooth. In March , she was rushed to a London clinic with lung congestion. She was given a tracheotomy that helped her breathing, but for days she was on the danger list.
After some time in a coma, she began to rally. Her physicians announced, "She has made a very rare recovery. Miss Taylor is a woman of great courage. She put up a wonderful fight. In the spring, Taylor won her first Oscar, after three consecutive nominations for best actress in a leading role in Raintree County, Cat On a Hot Tin Roof and Suddenly, Last Summer , for her role as a high-class hooker in the film Butterfield 8, an adaptation of John O'Hara's novel.
It was quiet and you could almost feel the electricity between Elizabeth Taylor and Burton. After the first "electric scene" they performed together, Burton, who was married, frequented the villa in the evenings. On one particular occasion, while Burton was regaling the guests with stories, Fisher went to the piano and started playing and singing loudly.

Finally, Taylor yelled, "Shut up, Eddie! We can't talk! A few moments later, Fisher's records were blasting through the house. Taylor covered her ears while the guests departed, diplomatically.


While most of the fashion and accessories industry is either still in some stage of summer vacation, the ACE Awards held its 26th annual awards to honor individuals and companies who led the market segment. The ceremony was at Cipriani 42nd street, which has been home to the awards ceremony for at least two decades.
A new award for Global Style Icon was given to J Balvin, the Colombian singer aka ‘Prince of Reggaeton’, who is one of the best-selling Latin music artists selling more than 35 million records worldwide. He was awarded his honor by Reggie Saunders, Global Vice President of Entertainment Marketing for the Jordan brand, who recalled their Nike shoe partnership. Balvin has become a regular fashion fixture on the men’s show circuit, notably dressing in Dior, Louis Vuitton, Prada, and Givenchy, among others.
Mario Cantone had the audience in chuckles when he presented Molly Rogers and Danny Santiago, Costume Designers, with the Style Influencers award along with his And Just Like That co-stars Sarita Choudhury and Karen Pittman. Like its predecessor, Sex and The City, the show emphasizes highly accessorized fashion.
Josie Natori, most commonly associated with her lingerie line, was awarded the Hall of Fame award presented by long-time retail partner Ron Frasch. The seasoned retail consultant was among the first to pick up Natori’s line when it debuted 45 years while he worked at Saks Fifth Avenue. The last award of the night, Natori, who noted she had recently turned 75, said she would be brief but offered some sage advice. “You shouldn’t go into the fashion business unless you really love it; there are easier ways to make money,” she told the audience, noting clearly it was her passion.
British retailer Kurt Geiger London won the brand of the year for the on-trend, unabashedly bold accessory lines, which pack style and quality into moderately priced goods. British model Abwoa Aboah and current Kurt Geiger campaign star flew into New York to present the creative team Rebecca Farrar-Hockley and Steven Sousa.
Other poignant moments included Victor Glemaud’s award for Breakthrough designer. His mother presented the award given due to his recent eyewear collaboration with Tura, which references his colorful knitwear designs. Glemaud thanked the women who had made his career possible. Wearing a Planned Parenthood t-shirt under his black suit, Glemaud suggested that he and other men should also support and join in the fight for women’s right to choose.
Veronica Swanson and Veronica Miele Beard, the sister-in-law duo behind the launch award given to Veronica Beard for adding shoes to their lifestyle brand, fanned over Legacy brand winners Vera Bradley’s
Other winners included Rimowa for Brand Excellence presented by frequent traveler Brian Kelly The Points Guy; Retailer of the Year was awarded to Moda Operandi; Author Gary Shteyngart presented Ben Clymer, CEO of Hodinkee, the Visionary award; while model Coco Rocha presented LensCrafters with the Retail Innovation award.
“I couldn’t be prouder of our industry than I have been over the last few years. They have handled so many challenges gracefully,” says Karen Giberson, President, and CEO of the Accessories Council. “It’s so nice to return to in-person networking and specifically, on the occasion of the ACE Awards, to be able to celebrate this year’s exciting roster of honorees.”

The 15th anniversary of Payne Stewart’s passing
Fifteen years ago today, Payne Stewart passed away when the plane he was travelling in crashed in South Dakota. There were no survivors among the six people on board.
There are so many reasons why Stewart was great for the game of golf, and I just wanted to share this video from David Feherty back in 2005. It still hurts that he’s not around.


Frank 'Duke' Kish LOPATCONG TOWNSHIP, NJ Frank "Duke" Kish, 79 years old, passed away on Wednesday, December 16, 2020, in his Lopatcong Township home. Frank was born on January 8, 1941, to the late Geza E. Kish and Elizabeth R. Kish. He was born and raised in Phillipsburg, NJ, and was a lifelong resident of Lopatcong Township. Frank was a 1959 graduate of Phillipsburg High School and graduated from Moravian College in 1963 with a BA in music and psychology. He was married for 49 years, to his wife, Jamie Lee (Curtis) Kish. Frank spent sixteen years touring the United States as a talented musician under the stage names Okie Duke and Farley Parkenfarker, during the 60s and 70s. He entertained the country, with his showband, in places like Las Vegas, Hollywood, and Reno, while he played several instruments on stage simultaneously. His talent and music was driven by his true passion for songwriting and he was well known within the industry for his way with words and unique creativity. He was signed with Ovation Records under the name Okie Duke, and he released a full length album called "The Songs and Singings of Okie Duke." He recorded with some of the best studio musicians of all time.

Every Sunday, in the fall, he was in the booth at Lopatcong football field, announcing the names of all the kids, play by play, and making everyone laugh with his Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse voices. People knew his voice for miles around. He was also an integral part of both the Lopatcong Township and Phillipsburg Board of Education systems, where he served the community and youth for over 25 years. He was an avid fan of Phillipsburg athletics and never missed a Phillipsburg/Easton Turkey Day football game, even if it meant he had to broadcast it on his old antennae radio. In his most recent years, he was the organist and director of music at Alpha Presbyterian Church, where he spent every Sunday morning, sharing his love of music and songwriting with the congregation.

23 year old independent artist, Phé, moved to the West Coast in June 2017 to make her mark in the heart of the entertainment industry. We took the opportunity to learn about her newest single, her role as a songwriter in society and what’s next, during an interview.
Born and raised in Vancouver, undergrad in Boston and now living and pursuing music in LA - where’s home?
With LA being the hub of the music and entertainment industry, Phé now calls it home.
"There is always a session to be had and always something to do and learn."
A working musicians dream, she rates the music scene in LA 10/10.
What role does an artist/songwriter have in society?
How does your work comment on current social or political issues?
Growing up as a biracial woman in Canada, Phé acknowledges the differences of the political and social climates of the two countries. Now having lived in America for 5 years, she is trying to figure out how to use her voice in a way that is real for her and her listeners.
Through her music, she puts emphasis on exploring vulnerability. She wants to kick stereotypes like the idea that ‘boys don’t cry’ to the curb and hopes her music will help people understand that,
"We are all just human."
Have you ever had to sacrifice your creative control for an opportunity that would advance your career?
Phe says that she has never had to sacrifice her creative control, and hopes to never have to. She’s not in this industry to be famous, meet famous people or do cool things.
“I’m in this to make music, connect with people and create a community.”
“I’m not perfect. I’m human. I’m just like you.”

How has your artistic identity evolved since you first became “Phé”?
“I feel like I don’t have to be afraid anymore.”
The singer-songwriter says her move to LA gave her the opportunity to ask herself three imperative questions:
What do I want?
What’s my plan?
What am I working towards?
As she grows as a person, her artistry is evolving alongside of her. Although the music industry is ever-changing, her values and who she is remain the same.
Her upcoming EP “Crisis” is expected to drop Fall 2018. It talks about her first time falling in love and takes us through the beginning, middle and end of that relationship with a final song to mark moving on.
This EP will include her newest release (available on all platforms), “Feel You”. And with over 45k streams on SoundCloud, Phé's debut single “Incredible” will also be featured. Needless to say, this EP will satisfy all your R&B and Urban Pop needs for the remainder of 2018, and the whole of 2019.


…was an American singer who only really became famous after she died of cancer in 1996 . She became only 33 years of age. Nowadays the, far too short, story of her life, can be read on many internet sites. Her father is still maintaining her own website..
Read the Guestbook.
A self assured, young woman, with an unheard musicality, who could not be forced into a box. Ida has in fact a lot in common with her. She sings only what she likes herself and she really does not care what other people think. Streisand next to Paul Simon, and why is that wrong?
Record companies, producers they all tried to make Eva Cassidy fit in a genre. But for some artists that simply does not work. Eva sang Jazz but also Gospels, Blues but also Country, Rock and Ballads. She did not want an album or a performance with one kind of music, she wanted them all together. She was only interested in the beauty of a song and the content.


During the 80's and the 90's, Rudy Houston, had gained popularity and a claim in the entertainment industry as a quadruple threat, actor dancer model and singer. You may remember him as Janet Jackson's love interest in the music video what have you done for me lately? And pebble's male lead in her Mercedes Boy music video. In addition, Rudy's other credits include performing in the original New York Broadway production of Dreamgirls, Lethal Weapon 2 film, and fame TV series just to name a few. After a lengthy Hiatus from the entertainment industry, in order to transition from male to female, Rudy became Lana Houston. She has decided to resume her career and is currently seeking a writer, producer, to assist her in collaboration with her one-woman autobiographical show and TV series.
Her sex change journey has been a long road, which for the most part, remained out of the media’s broad reach, until now because Houston is back and wants the world to know.“Yes, it is true that I have transitioned from male to female,” Houston said in a statement. “I began my transition from male to female in 1995. I needed time away from the entertainment industry to find my inner peace and embark on my intense and wonderful journey to womanhood. I am finally at peace. I am currently residing in L.A., where I work as an artist painting portraits and abstracts.” Houston said she is grateful for her sex transition and to have fans. She is also looking for songwriters and music producers to collaborate with..
Lana Houston has successfully transitioned. The former heartthrob that many of women were fantasizing about, is now a woman in her own right. Lana deserves nothing but support and respect for doing what her heart told her to do, no matter what the social stigma is, or was, for her following her transition.
The interesting thing is that, before her transistion to female, there were many men who would have love to trade places with his former person. Women were damn near throwing themselves at Rudy back in the day and willing to do whatever he requested just to please him, but for Lana, that just wasn’t her true self. She was living a life inside of a body that didn’t feel like an authentic reflection of who she was on the inside. With the transition now completed she is free to feel whom her mind reflects.
The statement below was quoted by sources, regarding what Lana Houston said about her transition from male to female:“I am formerly known as Rudy Houston, I am now known as ‘Lana.’ I appreciate all thoughts and concerns and I appreciate your interest in my whereabouts. Yes, it is true that I have transitioned from male to female. I began my transition from male to female in 1995. I needed time away from the entertainment industry to find my inner peace, and to embark on my intense, and wonderful journey to womanhood. I am finally at peace and comfortable in my skin. I am currently residing in LA where I work as an artist painting portraits, and abstracts. Although I took a break from show business, I am contemplating on coming back. I’m currently in the market for songwriters/music producers to collaborate with. Again, thanks to all those concerned about my whereabouts. I’m back from the ‘Dead.’ Sincerely, LANA (aka) Rudy Houston”. In the speeches of fight against discrimination in the media, stereotypes are considered as negative representations which must be guarded against, distorted images which lead to discrimination. A linear logic is then constructed between media representations, social representations and social behaviors. We just wanted to spread the word about Lana Houston, who is from the old school music era, and remains in the mind of many. We can wonder if the world would give her as many props and support as they’ve given Caitlyn Jenner if they actually knew Lana’s story too.

All those who are close to Prabhas keep saying the Actor hasn’t changed as a person even after becoming Pan-India Star with Baahubali. The only noticeable difference anybody could spot in the Young Rebel is the change of hair styles.
Off the screen, Prabhas used to maintain the same hair style prior to Baahubali. He, however, kept experimenting a lot in the recent past. There is a significant change in his hair styles be it when he was spotted in Mumbai post the release of Baahubali 2 or During Destination Wedding of SS Rajamouli’s Son or Today’s birthday celebrations of Krishnam Raju. Fans are happy with the new looks attempts by Prabhas. Though few of them have been hit n miss, Making an attempt is far better than trying nothing…isn’t it?
The new hair style of Prabhas could become a trend. Is it for the period flick he would be shooting soon?

What’s the Latest in Aretha Franklin’s Estate?
Now that numerous handwritten wills, which guarantee a trip into Probate Court, were discovered earlier in the year, the Queen of Soul’s son, Kecalf Franklin, has brought a legal action to gain control over his mother Aretha Franklin’s estate. Another celebrity Estate Planning disaster headed to Probate Court.
This comes after a 2014 will, allegedly designated him as the person she wanted to be executor.
The Grio’s recent article, “Aretha Franklin’s youngest son files to take over control over her estate from her niece,” reports that Kecalf filed paperwork requesting that a Michigan probate judge remove Franklin’s niece Sabrina Owens, who’s now the estate’s representative.
However, the three wills found on Aretha’s property haven’t been authenticated. Kecalf claims that Owens has left Franklin’s heirs uninformed about his mother’s financial affairs, CNN reports.
To that end, Aretha Franklin’s son said he has yet to receive an inventory of his mom’s jewelry, master tracks, Grammys, gold records and other awards.
Kecalf also says that he hasn’t been told about the results of an investigation involving the value of Aretha’s musical catalog.
The attorneys for the singer’s estate reportedly believe that 49-year-old Kecalf doesn’t have the “ability, skill (and) knowledge” to be executor. The estate has filed its own response.
The estate’s legal counsel also argues that other family members don’t want Kecalf to assume control either and his filing is reportedly in “direct conflict” with what other family members wants, according to a report from CNN.
The 76-year-old music legend passed away last August after a battle with cancer.

Virginia Bell the Amazonic!
Star of “Gertie the Grapefruit Girls and Friends” in 1969 and “Lullaby of Bareland” in 1964. I hesitate to call Ms. Bell an actress, as her real talent was swaying them slowly in unison, but she did find work in the business. I pride myself on a family-friendly website here, and I can assure you it took a considerable amount of work to find a picture of Miss Bell, AKA “Ding Dong” without her full talents on display.
However, once you scroll to the cover of Fling Magazine here (shot by Russ Meyer)you will go find your own anyway. Have fun! Virginia, with the help of Russ, pretty much owned Fling Magazine, but her most famous cover is probably the 1959 issue of Sir Knight in which she flaunts in front of what must be the first graffiti covered wall in history.
Her big dough came in dancing. She is reported playing in Pittsburg as early as 1957 dancing on a bill along with “Domay, The Gorgeous Cherokee Half Breed” who was apparently “the only indian exotic dancer in burlesque.” Okay… In 1957, Virginia was using the fairly common “Treasure Chest Girl” label. She was also doing a 15-minute dance between movies such as “Geisha Girls” and “Some Like it Cool” at the time, and reportedly also danced “wherever girlie-girlie carnivals are still in ascendancy…”
After a 20 week tour of Europe in 1961, which included bouncing the stages In London, Paris and Rome, she returned directly to Youngstown, Ohio to dance for the commoners! She was then known as “The Little Girl with the Big Dimensions” though the reporter in the Youngstown Vindicator was kind enough to report “Despite the impressive statistics, she is not at all unwieldy.” How would HE know? By the way, on that gig, there was also a woman named “Tina Turner” What?
The Miami News reported her stripper salary at $1500 a week in 1963.
Her passing is reported in July 2010 in Westlake Village, California.


Whenever Ferruccio Furlanetto steps onto a stage, he brings several things with him.
Firstly, he possesses one of the most luxuriously beautiful bass voices in the world, which fills auditoriums with astonishing power.
There are his interpretations of each character, which reach a depth that can only be developed from decades treading the boards.
And then, perhaps most importantly, is the history he carries with him. Over his 48 years performing in leading opera houses, Furlanetto has starred alongside opera’s greatest icons – Luciano Pavarotti, José Carreras, Mirella Freni, Dame Joan Sutherland, to name just a few – and performed with the world’s most legendary conductors,including Herbert von Karajan, Sir Georg Solti and Leonard Bernstein.
Former Opera Australia Artistic Director Lyndon Terracini calls Furlanetto “one of the great operatic artists of the late 20th century and early 21st century,” who remains “one of the most important and in-demand artists in the world” nearly five decades after his career commenced.
The internationally celebrated Furlanetto is returning to Australia in 2023 with a career-spanning solo concert, featuring key moments from his life in music.
“The first time we did [the solo concert] was at the Mariinsky in St Petersburg, and it was marvelous,” Furlanetto says. “To present what I believe is the story or ‘itinerary’ of my long career, and to see, at the end, 2,200 people standing... Well, it’s really something.”
Furlanetto has since performed the concert in Italy and Budapest, and is excited to add Sydney, Melbourne and Milan’s famed La Scala to the list.

Finding empathy in every role
The celebrated Italian-born bass says performing a solo concert gives him, as an opera singer, a “new dimension”.
“When you’re on stage with costume and makeup, somehow it’s easier because the track is already prepared,” he says. “When you are alone, on stage, with a piano, dressed normally and with your own face, it’s only up to the way that you are filtering this music.
“You must live these amazing roles, honestly under your own skin. Only in this way can you reach the audience. The only possibility is to live what you’re singing and find the intentions and colours. If you have to suffer in that moment, you must suffer. If you are enjoying it, you must be joyful.”
Music as an emotional landscape
The recital begins with a beautiful set of songs by Brahms, Mussorgsky and Rachmaninov, before Furlanetto brings to life some of the opera characters he has inhabited over the course of his long career – one that spans almost five decades. And there’s a story behind each piece of music.
“I chose pieces that have had specific importance in my career and growth,” he says. “Why the Sarastro aria [from The Magic Flute]? Because when I did my very first competition, as a young, studying singer, to participate I needed to know a role. At the time, it was very easy for me to navigate in the deep areas, so I thought Sarastro was ideal.”
He also performs pieces from two other Mozart operas with which he has a great deal of experience: The Marriage of Figaro and Don Giovanni.
Furlanetto says playing Figaro for 25 years of his life was “pure happiness”, and that his performance in the role was born under a “great star”. His debut in the role was in a production rich with opera heavyweights: conductor Daniel Barenboim, director Jean-Pierre Ponnelle and soprano Kathleen Battle.
Adventures with the Don
In Don Giovanni, Furlanetto has similarly extraordinary experiences. His portrayal of the title character was seen all over the world for more than a decade, but his career took an unexpected turn when the legendary conductor Herbert von Karajan asked if he would move into the supporting role of Leporello for a production at the 1987 Salzburg Festival.
“I thought that I was good at singing the Don, and of course when you’re singing Don Giovanni, you don’t want to sing Leporello. But you couldn’t say no to God himself, therefore I said ‘OK, fine Maestro, I’ll do it.’”
“I had an advantage: in ten years as the Don, I created an idea in myself; a sort of ideal Leporello, that I would love to have next to me as Don Giovanni, and I played that. I have to say, again, the Maestro was right in his choice, because that Leporello opened all the doors in the world, and it changed my life, really.”
An Italian in Russia
Furlanetto will also be performing selections from Modest Mussorgsky’s Boris Godunov, an opera very close to his heart, as he is the only Western singer to perform the title role in two of Russia’s most historic opera houses: the Mariinsky and the Bolshoi.
He also sings selections from Mussorgsky’s song cycle Songs and Dances of Death, a work he first performed at the Mariinsky with Valery Gergiev, and later recorded it with the famed conductor.

Being crowned King Philip II
And no look at Furlanetto’s career could be complete without his portrayal of King Philip II in Don Carlo, a role with which he has become synonymous, starting with an auspicious appearance at the 1986 Salzburg Easter Festival, conducted by Karajan.
Furlanetto was due to appear in two performances, but found himself thrust into the spotlight as Philip when the singer originally contracted for the role had to pull out.
“I was very happily sleeping at 9 in the morning, when they called me and they told me ‘you have to come today at 4 o’clock’,” Furlanetto recalls.
He was given a film of the production on LaserDisc and had to learn the production before that day’s general rehearsal in front of an invited audience.
“I swear, I went on that day without one single minute of rehearsal,” he says. “I watched the video, I understood where I had to be in certain situations, and luckily I had already sung the role before, so I was prepared, and I was in good health, which was very important. Because when you win the lottery, you must be ready to catch it.”
Furlanetto’s performance in this role is now legendary; he has performed the role all around the world, including for Opera Australia, and is arguably the world’s greatest King Philip II.
“During the curtain calls at the premiere, I started feeling a bit dizzy,” he says, “because I started to understand what had happened to me. Even after the rehearsal, just in the 12 hours, the planet of opera knew that I existed. Only with Karajan could something like that happen; he was from another dimension.”
Returning to Australia
Furlanetto is excited to be bringing this music to Melbourne; to reprise some pieces that he’s performed here, and share some performances that are new to local audiences.
He first performed in Australia in 2015, but had been here earlier to visit his son, who lives in Perth. His first appearance for Opera Australia was in Don Carlo, and he returned in 2018 with his celebrated performance in the title role of Don Quichotte.
“From the very beginning, I was in love with this audience and these people,” he recalls.
“It really became a very important place for me, and I’m so glad that after this crazy time when everything was closed and finished somehow, it’s wonderful to know I’ll have the chance to come back.”
Lyndon Terracini says, “It has been an honour to be present at [Furlanetto’s] performances in Australia, and it is a rare treat to be in the presence of one of the greatest basses in the history of opera. I welcome him back to Opera Australia with respect, admiration and joy.”
Join us in welcoming the esteemed Ferruccio Furlanetto back to Australia in 2023.

In December, the world lights up with festive glitter and glamorous celebrations. Among these, the unique sparkle of Liberace and Liza Minnelli’s holiday performances remains a memorable spectacle. David Saffert’s entrance as Liberace in “Liberace & Liza Holiday at the Mansion (A Tribute)” captivates audiences with a blend of humor, warmth, and extravagant style, setting the stage for an unforgettable evening.
Liberace’s Lavish Legacy
Władziu Valentino Liberace, an American icon, captivated audiences with his flamboyant lifestyle and exceptional musical talent. His net worth, amassed from successful stage and television performances, allowed him to indulge in opulent homes, one of which – the Moroccan Room in his Las Vegas mansion – serves as the backdrop for the tribute show. The Liberace Museum, another testament to his legacy, showcases his extravagant costumes and pianos, immortalizing his flamboyant essence.
Tragic Elegance: The Star’s Demise
While Liberace’s life was filled with dazzling highs, it also had its lows. His cause of death, related to complications from AIDS, marked a somber end to a life lived in the limelight. Despite these tragedies, his artistic influence and the mystery surrounding his personal life, including rumors about a wife, continue to fascinate fans and historians alike.
Liza Minnelli: A Triple-Threat Star
Liza Minnelli, daughter of the legendary Judy Garland, brought her own brand of sparkle to the stage. Her dynamic performances, often alongside Liberace in tributes and reminiscences, showcased her versatility as a singer, dancer, and actress. The chemistry between Liberace and Minnelli, whether in real life or as portrayed in tributes, lights up the stage with a unique blend of talent and charisma.
A Tribute to Transcendence
The show “Liza Holiday at the Mansion,” directed by Chip Miller and co-starring Jillian Snow as Liza, revives the magic of these two stars. The performance, far beyond mere impersonation, is a heartfelt tribute that balances musical skill, comedic timing, and a genuine admiration for the legendary figures they portray. Music director Bo Ayars, who once worked with Liberace, ensures an authentic and professional production.
Behind the Curtain: The Performers’ Journey
David Saffert and Jillian Snow, embodying Liberace and Liza, share personal journeys that mirror those of the icons they portray. Saffert’s Wisconsin roots and late discovery of classical music contrast with Liberace’s early immersion in the genre. Snow’s shy beginnings and eventual embrace of Liza Minnelli’s persona speak to the transformative power of performance. Together, their onstage synergy is both entertaining and inspiring.
A Sparkling Finale
As the show concludes, the audience is left with a sense of nostalgia and admiration for two of show business’s most dazzling figures. The performances of Saffert and Snow, filled with humor, talent, and genuine affection, ensure that the legacies of Minnelli continue to shine brightly in the hearts of their fans.
Reflections on Showbiz Glamor and Legacy
The journey of Liberace Movie and Liza Minnelli, from their heydays to their lasting impact in modern tributes, reflects the timeless allure of showbiz. Their lives, filled with both brilliance and hardship, continue to inspire and entertain, proving that true star power never fades.
The legacy of Liberaces wife and Liza Minnelli endures in modern entertainment. Films exploring Liberace’s life, like the acclaimed “Behind the Candelabra,” and continuous tributes to Liza Minnelli’s career highlight their ongoing influence. As new generations discover their talents, the sparkle of these iconic performers continues to illuminate the world of entertainment.


Wendy O. Williams, whose stage theatrics as lead singer of the punk band The Plasmatics included blowing up equipment and chain-sawing guitars, dubbed the 'queen of shock rock' sported a trademark Mohawk haircut and was nominated in 1985 for a Grammy in the best Female Rock Vocal category during the height of the band's popularity.
A native of Webster, N.Y., Williams with her on-stage antics quickly attracted a following for the Plasmatics, who debuted in New York City clubs in 1978.
Police in Milwaukee arrested Williams and Swenson in 1981 after she allegedly simulated a sex act in concert at a nightclub. Charges of battery to an officer and obscene conduct against Williams were later dropped and a jury cleared Swenson of obstructing an officer.
She was acquitted in April 1981 of an obscenity charge in Cleveland filed for performing covered only with shaving cream and simulating sexual activity.
In November of that year, she was sentenced to one year supervision and fined $35 by an Illinois judge for beating a free-lance photographer who tried to take her picture while she was jogging along the Chicago lakefront.

Annie Oakley was born on this date (August 13) in 1860. You know what that means? Yes, ol’ Clementine here has dug up 5 Fun Facts on America’s first female superstar (with a little help from my friend Wikipedia). You can also learn more about her from the Annie Oakley Foundation.
1. Born in rural Ohio, she was named Phoebe Ann Mosey.
2 . In an effort to support her siblings and recently widowed mother, little Annie began hunting at the age of six. Her skills developed from there, and she became a local legend.
3. She joined Buffalo Bill’s Wild West Show in 1885 and was dubbed Little Sure Shot (she stood only five feet tall).
4. It’s been said that Oakley taught upwards of 15,000 women how to use a gun. She was a staunch supporter of women’s rights.
5. It’s also been said that Oakley’s sharp-shooting skills only improved as she got older. She was shooting — and making her marks — up until the time of her death at age of 66 in 1926.
Watch this cool clip of her shooting. (Email subscribers — click through to the post in order to see the video.)


Little Anthony and the Imperials is a rhythm and blues/soul/doo-wop vocal group from New York, first active in the 1950s. Lead singer Jerome Anthony "Little Anthony" Gourdine was noted for his high-pitched falsetto voice, influenced by Jimmy Scott. The group was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame on April 4, 2009, 23 years after the group's first year of eligibility for induction, waiting longer than any other artist for the honor.
In 1957, a doo-wop group known as the Chesters existed with members Clarence Collins, Tracy Lord, Nathaniel Rodgers, and Ronald Ross. Anthony Gourdine, a former member of the Duponts, joined as lead vocalist. Ernest Wright took over from Ross, and the group recorded briefly for Apollo Records.
Changing their name to the Imperials, they signed with End Records in 1958. Their first single was "Tears on My Pillow", which was an instant hit. (While playing this song, D.J. Alan Freed came up with the name "Little Anthony".) The B-side, "Two People in the World", was also a hit. The group followed up with "Shimmy, Shimmy, Ko Ko Bop" in 1960. When their success dwindled in 1961, Little Anthony left to attempt a solo career. Some members left, and the line-up then became Collins, Wright, Sammy Strain, and George Kerr. Kerr was replaced by Kenny Seymour after a short time. This line-up had little success.
Little Anthony returned in 1963, replacing Seymour. The group's classic line-up – Gourdine, Ernest Wright, Clarence Collins, and Sammy Strain – was now complete. With the help of record producer/songwriter Teddy Randazzo (a childhood friend of the group), the Imperials found success on the new DCP (Don Costa Productions) label with the dramatic pop-soul records "I'm On The Outside (Looking In)" (1964), "Goin' Out Of My Head" (1964), "Hurt So Bad" (1965), "I Miss You So" (1965), "Take Me Back" (1965), "Hurt" (1966), and "Out of Sight, Out Of Mind" (1969). In 1965, the Imperials appeared on the CBS-TV special Murray The K - It's What's Happening, Baby, where they performed "I'm Alright" before a live audience in New York. At the height of their career, the group made two appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show, at the time television's top talent showcase, on March 28th, 1965, and again on January 25th, 1970. They also performed on many other popular television variety shows during the sixties, including Shindig!, Hullabaloo, Perry Como's Kraft Music Hall, Dick Clark's American Bandstand, and The Tonight Show.
The Imperials then joined United Artists Records and were assigned to its Veep Records subsidiary, and then to the parent label itself, where they recorded "World Of Darkness", "Better Use Your Head", "If I Remember To Forget", "Yesterday Has Gone", and the Thom Bell-produced "Help Me Find A Way (To Say I Love You)".
Albums from this era include: Reflections, Payin' Our Dues, Out Of Sight, Out Of Mind (named after their hit cover of The Five Keys song), and Movie Grabbers, which included a rendition of "You Only Live Twice", the James Bond motion picture theme.
They recorded the one-off single "Father Father" for Janus Records, which they later performed on the Merv Griffin Show. Then they went to Avco Records in the early 1970s and recorded "On A New Street", and charted with the songs "La La La (At the End)", and "I'm Falling In Love With You". This album was produced by both Bell and Randazzo. A second LP for Avco Records entitled Hold On was withdrawn from sale in the USA after the failure of the title track to sell and AVCO's subsequent financial difficulties. The group appeared on Soul Train on May 26, 1973. By this time, Sammy Strain and Ernest Wright had left the group, although both would eventually return.
Ernest Wright left in 1971 to join Tony Williams' Platters. He was replaced by the returning Kenny Seymour, who was again replaced after a short time by Bobby Wade. Strain left in 1972 to join the O'Jays, and was replaced by Harold Jenkins (who had already been functioning as the group's choreographer). Jenkins and Seymour had previously performed together in the Impacts. Little Anthony left for a second (more successful) attempt at a solo career. The trio of Collins, Wade, and Jenkins continued as "the Imperials". Clarence Collins left in 1988, and was replaced by Sherman James. They then toured as "Bobby Wade's Imperials". James left in 1992, and was replaced by Ron Stevenson.
That same year, Collins, Wright, Strain, and Little Anthony reunited for a concert at Madison Square Garden. This reunion proved to be a success. When the decision was made for the foursome to tour together again, Wade relinquished the Imperials name, with his group becoming "Bobby Wade's Emperors". They became the house band at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. At this point Sammy Strain left the O'Jays, and permanently returned to the Imperials. 1992, the year of the group's reformation, just happened to also be the 40th anniversary of Dick Clark's American Bandstand, and he invited the Imperials to appear as part of the televised special celebration.
On August 30, 1997, the group was featured on NBC's Today show as part of that show's "Summer Concert Series", and appeared on two popular PBS specials; Rock, Rhythm, and Doo-Wop, and Soul Spectacular: 40 Years Of R&B in 2002 and 2003, respectively. Also, during this period, they recorded two new CDs: Little Anthony & the Imperials – Live: Up Close & Personal (the group's first ever live album), and Pure Acapella, an all a capella CD showcasing the group's vocal talents on several classic 50's doo-wop songs, including their own hit, "Two People In The World", which was written by Imperials member Ernest Wright. These two recordings marked the first time that the classic line-up had recorded together in over 30 years.
Anthony, Collins, Wright, and Strain continued touring as "Little Anthony and the Imperials", until Strain retired in 2004, and Harold Jenkins returned to take his place.In 2010, Jenkins also retired,and was replaced by Robert DeBlanc. As of 2011, the Imperials are (along with the Dells), one of few 1950s-era R&B groups still touring with the great majority of their original members (Gourdine, Collins and Wright). They are also one of the very few late 1950s-based groups to successfully re-invent themselves and go on to maintain consistent recording success well into the 1960s/1970s.
Little Anthony and the Imperials released their first new LP in several years in October 2008, entitled "You'll Never Know", and they performed on the Late Show With David Letterman on August 26, 2008. On their Discovery album, the electronic music duo Daft Punk sampled Little Anthony and the Imperials' 1977 recording of "Can You Imagine" for the track "Crescendolls".
As of January 2012, Little Anthony and the Imperials continue to tour and attract large audiences throughout the United States and abroad after 54 years in the music business. January 2013 will mark the 55th year of Little Anthony and the Imperials. The group will embark on their 55th Anniversary and Farewell Tour to show their appreciation to the loyal fans that have enjoyed their music. Although this marks the end of the iconic group’s historic run together; Little Anthony will continue to perform to the delight of his adoring fans for years to come.
Little Anthony and the Imperials received the Rhythm and Blues Foundation's Pioneer Award in 1993. They were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in 1999 and the Long Island Music Hall of Fame on October 15, 2006. On January 14, 2009, it was announced that Little Anthony and the Imperials had been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In addition to Anthony, Wright, Collins, and Strain, Original Imperials member Nathaniel "Nate" Rogers was also present to be honored. The group was inducted by longtime friend, Miracles member Smokey Robinson. In October 2009, the group performed "Two People in the World" at the 25th Anniversary Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Concert.
Imperials member Sammy Strain is one of the few artists in popular music history who is a double Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, having been inducted with The O'Jays in 2005 and the Imperials in 2009.
Anthony and the Imperials were inducted into Mohegan Sun's Wolf Den Hall of Fame on January 8, 2011, Anthony's 70th birthday.


I am a fan of The Beatles. As such, I am also a fan of their solo endeavours. All their solo endeavors. For decades, Ringo Starr has lived in the creative shadow of his bandmates. Living in the shadow of John Lennon and Paul McCartney, two of the 20th centuries greatest composers, must have been daunting. Once Lennon and McCartney discovered their muse, they came on strong and helped change the face of music. So, while it must have been daunting, I would imagine it was also quite exciting to experience.

Lamar Odom’s Family Speaks Out: Eff’ the Kardashians and TMZ.com
I am happy to say I was wrong about Lamar Odom being deceased three months after the loss of his best friend. I felt because of his drug problem and the fact he consorted with Hollywood witches he would be sacrificed in a blood ritual or simply sacrificed for television ratings. It is no secret substance abuse runs in his family but what was not known was his family’s perspective. I hope Lamar Odom does improve because he is loved by his family.
I also hope he leaves Hollywood and finds a relationship somehow with Christ. Lamar immersed himself into a culture that worships the “fallen” angels and is devoid of Christ. Lamar has beat the odds and perhaps he will heal and will move on with his life. Lamar’s family has set the record straight from their perspective and it is interesting to hear because there are always two sides to a story.


The story of a concert in London to celebrate the life of a former theatre star. Everyone had forgotten her. In the same way we celebrate Christmas to honour Jesus Christ but many forget him in the noise and excitement.
The pictures should be shown in PowerPoint as the story is told. The ( ) shows when the slide should be changed. To attract pupils’ attention, we recommend the first slide is already on display as they enter.
The Main Text
Some years ago a grand concert was held in a London theatre. A number of television and film stars were taking part in the show - world famous actors, actresses, singers, groups and dancers. The purpose of the concert was to comfort and help an old actress who was once a famous and popular star.
She wasn’t as famous as she used to be all those years ago. Most people had forgotten about her and she only had a few faithful friends left, those who had organised the concert in her honour.
On the day of the concert a rehearsal was planned for all the artists. Dozens of people were there and the place was full of hustle and bustle.
The actress’s friends had invited her to London for the day and mainly out of thanks to them, she had agreed to return to the old theatre where she was once so famous. There was no special time arranged for her to arrive, she was free to do as she pleased.
Without telling anybody, she decided to go to the afternoon rehearsal. She reached the theatre and stepped into the hustle and bustle. No one took any notice of her and nobody looked twice at her. Some people even rudely jostled her. Finally, somebody asked her who she was and if she was supposed to be there at all.
The concert’s purpose was to honour her, but nobody there recognised her when she arrived. The former star didn’t mean anything to most of the artists there. She should have been the centre of attention and most people didn’t even remember her name. She was a forgotten star.
The only reason the artists were there was to enjoy themselves and get publicity for themselves.
Christmas is coming once again. The purpose of Christmas, as we know, is to honour Jesus Christ who was born in a manger in Bethlehem. But in the middle of all the hustle and bustle, I wonder how many of us forget about Jesus?
When the three Wise Men came from the east it was said: ‘When they saw the star, they were overjoyed.’ (Mathew 2:10)
I wonder how many people this Christmas will still be celebrating but forgetting the star?
That’s not how it should be. Our job at Christmas is to remember the birth of Jesus and realise we should all try to be more like him from day to day.


Magda Sophia Gartner‘s voice “could kiss the stratosphere” (Boston Globe) and in New York City Opera’s baroque production “Los Elementos” by Literes, her aria of L’Aurora was praised „the most memorable aria of the evening“ due to its „emotional connection to the lyricism” (New York Classical Review).
Born in Germany, Gartner first studied piano and pedagogy with a master’s degree at the Mozarteum University of Salzburg, and later took up voal studies in London and New York with Amanda Roocroft, Malena Malas, Arthur Levy and Sophie Koch.
From New York, she established her singing career on the opera stages of North America and has made guest appearances with the New York City Opera, the Boston Odyssey Opera and sang with companies such as Opera Carolina, Grand Rapids Opera, Kentucky Opera and Opera Seattle.
Gartner’s appearance in Boston in the role of Aurelio in L’Assedio di Calais caused a sensation and was described by the Donizetti Society as “a mezzo-soprano of real importance with sustaining, warm depth and brilliantly shining height as the true heart of the production”.
2017 Gartner made her debut with New York City Opera as the Third Elf in Respighi’s “La Campana sommersa”. In the same year followed the successful engagement for the role of L`Aurora in Literes baroque opera “Los Elementos” followed.
In her 2018 debut as Cherubino in “Nozze di Figaro”, Magda inspired the audiences in Charlotte, North Carolina and in Grand Rapids, Michigan. In the same year she also appeared in Gluck’s Orfeo in a new production of English transcription at the Seattle Opera and studied the role including new translation in less than ten days.
This was followed by a phase of recitals and concerts in North America and Europe. Gartner appeared in the Münster of Konstanz as a soloist in Mozart’s Missa Longa under the direction of…. , in addition in New York’s Paulskirche as a soloist of Bach´s St. Matthew Passion and with sacred arias by Handel. This was followed by performances with recitals in the German Forum and the German Consulate in New York.
With the Gramercy Opera Company New York, which she co-founded, Gartner made a guest appearance as Fairy Queen in an adapted version of Purcell’s opera of the same title.
Before she made her successful debut with Kentucky Opera in Louisville in early 2020, again as Cherubino in „Nozze di Figaro“, she took centerstage in 2019 in New York’s Naniku Theater in the leading role of Beatrice of the contemporary rock opera “Institution”.
In 2016 already Gartner appeared on Kennedy Center’s Millennium Stage in Washington D.C. as Hansel, in Hansel and Gretel by Engelberg Humperdinck. In the same season she was Young Artist City of Opera Pomme Rouge, NYC, which presented her also as a mother and witch in „Hansel and Gretel“. Gartner was also in the Dell’Arte Opera Ensemble’s Young Artist program, with whom she made her sensational debut as Musette in Leoncavallo’s „Bohème“ at the Theater of Baruch College, NYC. Gartner also received a grant from the Martina Arroyo Foundation, with which she appeared in the roles of Dorabella („Cosi fan tutte“) and Mercedes („Carmen“) in the Theater of Hunter College, NYC.

Her first engagement at the Cincinnati Opera for 2020 was canceled due to the worldwide Covid-19 lockdown. Gartner took this halt of the opera scene in the USA as an opportunity to return to Germany for some time and to position herself in the European opera scene.

“This hard-hitting new video from up-and-coming Shrewsbury singer-songwriter Dan Owen is an important piece of work. The song, ‘Made To Love You’, was written from the personal experience of Dan supporting a friend suffering in an abusive relationship, with the lyrics touching on the conflict of emotions felt by one partner to another.” – Shortlist London
Dan Owen has revealed a hard-hitting video for his new single ‘Made To Love You’, out now through LAB Records. ‘Made To Love You’ is becoming a rapid success across the world and entered No.2 in the French Spotify Viral Chart, while No.4 in Belgium and also charted in the Netherlands, Hungary, Turkey and Indonesia respectively.
His captivating songwriting and relentless touring has seen Dan already develop a fervent fanbase, which resulted in him selling out his headline show at London’s St.Pancras Old Church earlier this month.
Dan has just completed a 30-date European tour in support of Birdy. The singer was such a huge fan of Dan that she finished every night of her tour inviting him onstage to duet on her 2015 hit ‘Let It All Go’. He’s also been invited back to head out on the road with her again for more shows in the autumn.
The Shrewsbury vocal powerhouse has been turning heads ever since he first started playing live ten years ago, at the tender age of 13. He first rose to wider prominence after a video of him playing a stunning live cover of Bob Dylan’s ‘The Ballad Of Hollis Brown’ was uploaded by a random audience member to Reddit and became an overnight viral internet sensation.
Since then Dan’s own talents as a songwriter have blossomed and the result is a stunning selection of songs. His debut EP Bad For Me was released to high praise in 2015 and now ‘Made To Love You’ is the first taste of his upcoming Open Hands And Enemies EP.
Open Hands And Enemies sees Dan straddling swooning soul, throaty blues and carefully crafted pop sentiments, and is due for release on October 19th.

If the number of famous faces donning sustainable sneakers is any indication, it looks like slow fashion has really hit its stride. Everyone from Hollywood A-listers such as Mila Kunis, Olivia Munn and Isla Fisher to talk show icon Oprah have been embracing stylish, planet-friendly sneakers.
As part of our values at Fullup., we hope to do our part to ensure slow fashion is not just a fad but rather a lasting lifestyle among consumers by celebrating eco-conscious design at every opportunity. When influential celebrities and athletes put sustainable design into the spotlight, it encourages mindful consumption and cleaner, healthier manufacturing processes.
So which famous faces have helped bring sustainable footwear into the mainstream? Here are a few of slow fashion’s most influential fans:
Both Kate Middleton (the Duchess of Cambridge) and Meghan Markle (or more formally, the Duchess of Sussex) have been spotted donning VEJA sneakers several times over the years. After Markle wore a pair of black-and-white VEJA Esplars to an event in Sydney with Prince Harry in 2018, demand for the shoes skyrocketed. While not entirely vegan (the brand uses vegetable-tanned leather in some models), we commend the Parisian footwear brand’s commitment to using ethically sourced wild rubber and recycled plastic bottles.
Leonardo DiCaprio has long been one of Hollywood’s most vocal climate activists. So it was no surprise that the Don’t Look Up star invested in Allbirds in 2018. Made with ethically sourced merino wool, eucalyptus tree fibers, and recycled plastic shoelaces, the certified B Corp footwear brand is also a favorite among Ashton Kutcher, Ben Affleck, Barack Obama, and Google co-founder Larry Page.
As the designer behind her eponymous UK fashion house, Stella McCartney knows a thing or two about sustainable fashion. In 2018, the luxury label launched its first sustainable sneaker, a smart shoe with a detachable sole that used clips instead of glue to attach to the upper. Since then, McCartney has worked to produce other high-end, eco-friendly shoes, like a recent vegan Reclypse sneakers that features a material made from recycled fishing nets.
As the undisputed titan of US daytime television, Oprah has long been a champion of innovative footwear company soleRebels. Founded by Ethiopian designer Bethlehem Tilahun Alemu, this sustainable shoe brand uses recycled truck tires and organic cotton to make its leather-free footwear. It not only boasts the world’s first hand-made running shoes, but also a wide range of colorful, artisan crafted slip-ons.
At Fullup., we are thrilled to see so many influential people wearing eco-conscious shoes with pride as it helps to turn the tide in the industry. We respect the eco-conscious innovations that came before us. But the footwear industry as a whole still has work to do.


I’ve never been a fan of American Idol. To me, it’s another form of reality TV, and the reality too often is just not entertaining. But earlier this week on the Romance Writers of Atlantic Canada loop, someone posted a link to a video of Susan Boyle singing in the British version of Idol. “Brought tears to my eyes,” the post said. So, I checked it out. It brought tears to my eyes too.
The story is spreading world-wide, but if you haven’t heard it yet, Susan Boyle is a forty-seven-year-old, plain, unmarried, unemployed woman with dreams of a singing career. With her gray curls and double chin, she walked onto the stage of ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ with her head high and told the judges she wanted to be as successful as Elaine Page. They all but laughed in her face, and the audience did laugh. Susan announced that she was going to sing “I Dreamed A Dream” from Les Miserables, and the panel sat back smirking as the opening bars played, ready for a joke.
Then Susan started to sing. Jaws dropped, eyebrows lifted. This ordinary-looking little woman has a voice fit for Carnegie Hall. She lacked stagecraft – she didn’t play Fantine like a trained actress, but oh, can she sing. She blew everyone in the hall away. I’ve read that she’s been offered a recording contract already.
If anyone out there has a dream that they think they can’t achieve because they aren’t beautiful enough or cool enough, google her name and listen to her performance. You will not forget it, any more than I will.

Who is richard grieco dating now
Beside acting he enjoys writing, painting and poetry and was sucsessful as singer, a side career he launched in 1994.is your unofficial source to catch up on the latest with Richard, including his projects, pictures and several other nice features.
, until his career suddenly derailed and began a rapid descent into obscurity.
As a young man, Grieco modeled for Armani, Calvin Klein and Chanel before studying acting.
Grieco broke into acting in the mid-1980s with minor non-recurring roles on popular television shows such as was a police procedural crime drama television series that aired between April 1987 and April 1991.
The series focused on a squad of squad of young undercover police officers investigating crimes in high schools, colleges, and other locations where youths congregate.
The series was one of the Fox network's more popular shows during the network's early years.
Unfortunately for Grieco, however, his new show was poorly received and was cancelled after only one season.
Grieco had a guido-like appearance during the height of his stardom, much like the people who currently appear on the MTV reality show, .
A decade later, in 2004, Grieco collaborated with music manager Cheryl Bogart to form the band Wasteland Park.Grieco was briefly in the news in early 2011 when it was reported that he was practically begging to take over Charlie Sheen's role on , about male prostitutes and claims that he was offered up to k a night for gay sex back in the 1980s.


Recently, Billy Corgan has been teasing a new Smashing Pumpkins album. The singer revealed that the band are working with 26 brand new songs.
This follows on from a series of leaks and speculation about the band. Corgan was photographed in the studio with original members James Iha and Jimmy Chamberlin. D`Arcy Wretsky the original bassist from the band revealed that she would rejoin however Jeff Schroeder who was briefly a member will join.
the guitar feels once again like the preferred weapon of choice.
Corgan has also revealed that Rick Rubin will be producing the album and that the 26 songs will be worked on in the studio.
Ok, I misspoke. Today wasn't the last day in studio. More work ahead (lyrics, vocals, strings). Which I guess means something like 26 songs currently in various states of completion, production, insanity. But honestly, and I mean this from the heart, I'm very pleased to be this engaged with making new music at this point in my life. I started playing the guitar April 1, 1981, so almost 37 years later the colors remain vivid in my mind, there are still fresh (and dare I say provocative) subjects to address, and the guitar feels once again like the preferred weapon of choice.
We are hoping to report on more details, tour and festival dates soon.

“A woman with a voice is by definition a strong woman. But the search to find that voice can be remarkably difficult” Melinda Gates
It seems most of us go through the early stages of life without any real purpose or calling, other than learning from our mistakes, building the basics of life, and possibly even figuring out little by little how to be happy.
Then there are the few that were born with an intense, God-given talent and vision.
Capturing other people’s attention with her voice from a young age, Chandiss was one of those individuals. From placing second in a song writer’s expo at 12 years old, singing lead in bands at 14, all the way to having her own original songs featured on shows on MTV when she was still a teen, her voice found a way into the hearts of many.
From the outside looking in, it would appear Chandiss discovered her gift, and her voice, early on in life. But it wasn’t until working through the hardships she faced also from a young age on, was she able to share her soul, and therefore her real voice with the world.
Now, connected and completely aligned with her gift, her career has exploded. You can catch her headlining her own show on the world famous Fremont Street Experience plus performing many styles of music all over Las Vegas. She is currently writing her 3rd album, and you can bet that this one will not only capture hearts the world over, but will also speak to your soul.


Be it the music, the performance, the painting or the film - creating has always been what he is about.
Singer/songwriter Jay Makwana has been a striking performer since the age of four, having played at prestigious venues such as the Royal Albert Hall, London Hippodrome, The Jazz Café, Curve Theatre and indigO2 - as well as appearing on ITV's 'This Morning'. His musical style is best described as combination of “soulful pop" with an RnB flavour. In 2009, Jay released his debut single ‘No Sunshine’, which was well received on Buzz Asia and the BBC Asian Network. The video was aired on MTV, VIVA and Channel AKA – sparking popular interest. His second single, ‘Style’, followed in 2010 and received in excess of 3,000 downloads on iTunes. Jay's interest in music and performance first stemmed at an early age when watching a Michael Jackson video. This was and always will be one of the main inspirations for his undeniable passion for dance. Growing up, as well as being influenced by a number of different styles, Jay strived to bring forward a unique sound – not one designed purely for serving a particular time in music. Coming from a creative family, he was instantly put into the spotlight from a young age to showcase off his singing and dancing abilities. His new album ‘Art from the Soul’ (2013) has been a natural progression over the years with every song on the album being written and perfected by Jay himself.


Britney Spears - If U Seek Amy (2009)
MPEG4 | 688x384 | 25.00fps | MP3 44100Hz stereo | 3:45Mnis | 78Mb
"If U Seek Amy" is a song by American pop singer Britney Spears and the third single released from her sixth studio album Circus. The song was announced as a single by Spears's official website on January 7, 2009. The track was co-written and produced by Max Martin, who also wrote previous hits for Spears, including "...Baby One More Time" and "Oops!... I Did It Again" both internationally successful.The video starts off with a news anchor saying the title of the song above a newsbanner that reads "Britney Spears song lyrics spell out obscenity in disguise," a parody of a FOX News report by Megyn Kelly. It then skips to a house, in which a party is coming to an end. Spears gets up from the bed to sing the first verse. After looking out the window, she dances with other party goers as the chorus starts. She is looking around for Amy while she is singing and begins to dance with 4 other female dancers dressed in cheerleading outfits.


ISLAMABAD: National Institute of Folk and Traditional Heritage (Lok Virsa) will pay tribute to renowned folk artist Ustad Mian Shaukat Hussain on January 26. Ustad Mian Shaukat Hussain, a renowned Tabla player who belonged to the Punjab gharana of tabla-playing music artists. Mian Shaukat Hussain was born to a family of professional musicians. His father, Mian Maula Bakhsh, was a professional singer. But young Shaukat was drawn to percussion instruments from an early age.
He began his career from All India Radio, Delhi at the age of 18. His family migrated to Pakistan after its independence in 1947. In Pakistan, he was employed by Radio Pakistan, Lahore as a staff artist. Mian Shaukat Hussain retired in 1992 and died 4 years later in 1996 of kidney failure. He is survived by his son Raza Shaukat Hussain, a tabla player of merit himself who will also participate in the programme. The programme includes performances by Raza Shaukat Hussain, renowned singers Shafqat Salamat Ali and Israr Chishti who will also share their views and perform on the occasion.


By now, you’re probably well aware of Star Trekactor William Shatner’s infamous second career as a musical performer. His 1978 performance of Elton John’s ‘Rocket Man‘ still regularly makes its rounds online, delighting sci-fi fans and detractors alike.
Well, at 87 years old, Captain Kirk himself will be releasing his first Christmas album on Friday. Earlier this week, he released the first single off of the record, ‘Silent Night’ featuring punk rock pioneer Iggy Pop. Listen below.
Performed in his patented spoken-word “singing” style, Shatner tackles the verses while Iggy takes the chorus.
It’s worth noting, too, that while Iggy is inarguably a great performer and a total badass, his aptitude as a crooner is not to everyone’s taste, making it an even stranger pairing with Shatner’s dramatic readings.
The song builds to a relatively low-key crescendo towards the end of the song, when the two perform a harmony (of sorts), in which Iggy sings and Shatner echoes his words. Is it music? We’re not sure. Is it art? Absolutely.
We don’t know about you, but we can dig it. It might not bump ‘Kenny & Dolly‘off the turntable, but it’ll probably get a stream or two from us this holiday season.

Katharine Hepburn Garden in Midtown East
Katharine Hepburn was a beloved fixture in Manhattan, where she spent a large part of her life at her home in Turtle Bay, which she moved to in 1932. An avid gardner, she was actively involved in not just growing flowers, but also protecting the trees and the neighborhood from encroaching development. This has led to 49th Street and 2nd Avenue being named Katharine Hepburn Place, and having the Katharine Hepburn Garden named after her a couple of blocks away on 47th Street and 2nd Avenue.
Katharine Hepburn Place
Katharine Hepburn Place is a street in the Turtle Bay neighborhood of Manhattan, New York City. The street was named in honor of the Katharine Hepburn, who owned a townhouse on the street for many years. The townhouse was Hepburn’s primary residence from 1931 until the mid-1990s.
Katharine Hepburn was known for her iconic performances on stage and screen, as well as for being a trailblazer for women in the entertainment industry. The street that bears her name is a fitting tribute to her legacy and to her contributions to the world of film and theater.
Katharine Hepburn Garden
Katharine Hepburn Garden is a small public garden located in Dag Hammarskjold Plaza in New York City. The garden was named in honor of the legendary actress Katharine Hepburn, who was a longtime resident of the nearby Turtle Bay neighborhood. The garden was created in 1997 at the request of the community to pay tribute to her love of flowers, and for her commitment to the park and the neighborhood.
The Katharine Hepburn Garden is a peaceful and serene oasis in the heart of Midtown Manhattan featuring a variety of plants and flowers, as well as two old willow trees, wrought iron benches, and a fountain.
In addition to its natural beauty, the Katharine Hepburn Garden is also a tribute to the actress’s legacy and contributions to the world of film and theater. There’s a section towards the middle that pays tribute to her movies –
It is a great place to catch your breath, read or reflect if you are ever in Midtown Manhattan, as it is at all the parks that NYC seems to have tucked away in unexpected places.
One of my favorite sayings is one by Katharine Hepburn – “If you always do what interests you, at least one person is pleased”. I seem to be identifying with it even more as I get older!
