Portal 2: GlaDOS Voice Actor Will Feature in Valve’s Dota 2
At the Spike Video Game Awards’ red carpet, we get to see Ellen McLain. If you do not know who she is then shame on you. She is the voice actor behind Portal 2’s GlaDOS. Fans usually flock towards stars and athletes but it is actually more interesting, at least in my opinion, to get a shot of McLain’s smile. She even said that the whole thing, referring to the VGAs “is so funny” and that the last time she “was in a limo was in LA in 1981 with Rex Harrison.” This is just her second limo ride.
McLain is pretty gracious. She said that she is charmed by fan response to GlaDOS. She is also quoted saying, “I love the way the fans are wondering who is Chell, is Chell the offspring of GlaDOS and Cave Johnson, all this stuff. And I also think that the Portal games have drawn a lot of young women into gaming.” Her husband John Patrick Lowrie also does voices for Valve’s games. She said that they have “gone to some fancons, and the women are so excited, they come in and they’re either dressed up like Chell or they’re dressed up like GlaDOS.”
There is more of McLain that we are going to hear. In fact there is going to be a lot more. According to her husband, Lowrie, “there are like 100 characters, so we’ve done quite a few of them.” He is referring to the characters in Dota 2. Eric Wolpaw had just told them in the limo. What a productive limo drive that was.


Chris is trying so hard he grabs his own boob.
The movie “Finding Nemo” came out 57 years ago

"One day I’ll have to explain about my nightmares. Why they came. Why they won’t ever really go away."
Happy bday, Rupert Alexander Lloyd Grint (August 24, 1988)
High Rise wrapped this afternoon. Tom unfortunately had to to rush off and didn’t have time to stop for pics and whatnot. However, he was ever the Gentleman, he stopped, got out of the car, apologised to the fans who were waiting for him (myself included) and thanked them for coming today and throughout the entirety of filming. He didn’t have to do it, but it was so nice to see how much he cares for his fans. Such a lovely guy, I have so much respect for him.
Ashley aka Sheeriofriends on Instagram met Ed today. This is so cute AWWW


A Little Bit of Friday Fun: Corden & Alanis update Ironic
Wow, so it’s been twenty-years since Alanis Morrisette released her mega-hit, Ironic. Who feels old now?
But, don’t worry, because one way to get yourself over that feeling of your life flittering away before your eyes is to watch James Corden and Alanis perform that very song on his The Late Late Show, but with a hilarious twist.
They’ve updated the lyrics to fit with ‘these modern times’, and not only that but Alanis has even referenced the long-standing quibble with her song that it’s technically not actually about ironic situations at all…


So I'd like to discuss for a moment, Rachel Zoe. She gets blasted from all sides, but I love her. She is a style goddess and let's face it, she is a legitimate expert on style and fashion in an arena where many, many people (myself included) pretend they are hot shit. Rachel is hot shit. I respect her flamboyance when it comes to her personal style. I enjoy her giant, chunky jewelry, the sequined gowns and every single one of her furs has convinced me that I need some fur of my own.... faux of course. I am also comforted that even she has that same uncontrollable shopping/spending money disease I also am plagued with. Look, you can say what you like about her questionable age, her weight, or whatever it is about her that many people seem to dislike, but I have great respect for this woman and look up to her dearly. She loves fashion and has contributed to having fashion regarded as artistic expression, as a form of creativity, as real art. Not only that, but Rachel has made this into a living and a successful living at that. ANYWAYS.... her show, "The Rachel Zoe Project" on Bravo debuts the second season tonight and I know I am not the only one who is excited for it.


Digital collectibles featuring personal memorabilia from the actor best known as Captain Kirk of the USS Enterprise have sold out in just minutes.
Non-fungible token (NFT) trading cards featuring images from William Shatner’s personal life and career, from the 1930s to today, sold out in nine minutes according to WAX. The online marketplace for virtual items offered 10,000 “packs” for sale, featuring roughly 125,000 digital collectibles in total.
Collectors can now buy, sell, and trade the cards amongst themselves. Some of the scenes included Shatner’s headshots and characters from his early acting days and there are also more personal moments including him hugging fellow actor Leonard Nimoy, AKA Spock, and even an X-Ray of Shatner’s teeth.
“I’m astonished at how quickly it all happened,” Shatner told Cointelegraph, adding he hopes people who purchased the NFTs would be able to find new friends in trading them.
“The cards themselves represent a beautiful past,” he said. “The verification of being on the blockchains represents a great future. So we have the past and the future mixing together.”
The Star Trek actor has been a blockchain advocate for some time, promoting the technology on his Twitter account. Shatner spoke to Cointelegraph Magazine in June, saying that “putting something on a blockchain is forever.”


Echoes from Afar - Old World Tangos vol. 1
JEAN MOSCOPOL (1903-1983)
Jean Moscopol is a wonderful example of an attractive and cosmopolitan bon vivant. He spoke Rumanian, Greek, French, English, German and Italian fluently. His voice was both flattering yet bursting with hidden meaning, and woman threw themselves at his feet. The elegance of tango music, together with its hidden erotic, suited him exactly and he always appeared on stage in tails. By 1936 his repertoire included 300 sensuous and exotic songs of all the well-known composers. His style had elements in common with his French contemporaries Maurice Chevalier, Charles Trenet and Tino Rossi. The composer Henry Malineanu, who wrote many songs for him, praised him with the following words: "Jean Moscopol in addition to his enormous talent, is intelligent and has both taste and refinement."
Moscopol, whose family originally came from Greece, was born in Braila, a port on the river Donau. His first ambition was to study law and literature, but after working in an office for a short while he decided, at the age of 26, to become a singer. After an "intermezzo" in Bucharest, where he made his debut on the radio and played minor roles in theatre and film, he moved to Berlin and studied classical singing with Professor Korst. At this time he also sang in nightclubs, sophisticated bars and in two German films produced by the famous UFA studios in Berlin. Back in Bucharest, the "Paris of the East", his rise to fame and fortune began. Up to the end of the Second World War he was performing at the most glamorous addresses, whether nightclubs or restaurants, in the Rumanian capital.
In 1945 however, with the beginning of the post-war totalitarian regime in Rumanian, his fortune was to turn. Seeking refuge in the USA, he had no choice but to earn his living as the night porter of a New York hotel. Any money he had over he invested in a small musical ensemble that he founded. Its repertoire consisted of some of the tangos and romances he new from the past, together with new songs about life in exile, many of which condemned the rise of communism. However he never regained his former fame and is thought to have died in obscurity in Los Angeles at the age of 80.
TITI BOTEZ (1901-1957)
Between 1930 and 1945, the golden years of Tango in Rumania, Titi Botez was one of the most popular singers. Because of his emotional style and warm vibrant voice he was dubbed "the eternal lover". He appeared with all the major figures of the eastern and mid-European entertainment scene, releasing records in Bucharest, Berlin, Vienna and Budapest. He also appeared in a number of Rumanian films. His greatest successes were with songs composed by Petre Andreescu.
For many Turkish musicians, the Tango was their first contact with "western" music. As in most of the metropoles of Europe the Tango was to become the dominant form of music in the nightclubs and dance venues of Istanbul in the late 20s and the 30s after that. At the time the cosmopolitan glamour of Istanbul was attracting sophisticated people form all over the globe. With the enthusiastic support of both Armenian and Jewish musicians a Tango scene established itself in the form of a uniquely Turkish Tango tradition.
SEYYAN HANIM (1913-1989)
In the Ottoman Empire the public appearance of Muslim Turkish women was unthinkable. Actresses and singers were invariably Jewish, Armenian, Greek or Levantines; on no account would they be Muslim. This only began to change after Atatürk instigated his revolution separating religion and state. The very first Turkish woman who, because of these new circumstances, dared to appear on a stage was a Tango singer called Seyyan Hanim. She was a protegé of Kemal Atatürk himself, who seeing that her career symbolized a new openness to the west, vigorously supported her.
Though on account of her success she became an important figure for the emancipation of women in Turkey, a tragic irony was to occur: she married an army officer and was to spend the next twenty years of her life in an obscure east Anatolian garrison. Once every year, with her husband being one of the few people who knew about it, she would make the long journey from her secluded home to Istanbul, where she appeared on stage and made recordings.
IBRAHIM ÖZGÜR (1905-1959)
Ibrahim Özgür was born in Istanbul in 1905. After receiving a musical training in the military music academy in Ankara he worked in nightclubs in Istanbul and established a reputation for himself and the ingenious arrangements he played with his orchestra. In 1931 he set off on a concert tour in the Middle and Far East, returning via England to Istanbul seven years later to open his own club. He made his first recording in 1938. Özgür exploited his sense of nostalgia to the full in the Tangos he wrote, and his velvety voice was well suited to the romantic style Tangos that he sang. He claimed that the inspiration behind much of what he wrote was to do justice to the many love letters of his ardent female following.
The greatest inspiration in his life was however an Indian princess in whom he fell totally in love. His songs lament the unhappiness of love, the pain of separation and the longing of unfulfilled love. When these themes find powerful expression in his music and singing we sense he is speaking straight from the bittersweet suffering of his own heart.
PJOTR LESCHENKO (1898-1953)
Pjotr Konstantinowitsch Leschenko was known as the "King of Russian Tango". Between the years 1930 und 1950 he was without doubt the most popular Russian performer in exile. Although he was well known in Russia too, not a single recording of his was made there. This was because the Russian authorities regarded him as a counter revolutionary. He began his career as a dancer and only in 1930 did he have his first break as a singer. His basic repertoire consisted of Russian folk tales and Gipsy ballads, however his first love was the Tango. During the 30s he toured Europe on the wave of his enormous popularity, and from 1935 onwards he ran his renowned nightclub "Leschenko" in his adopted home Bucharest. Playing with the most talented members of his orchestra he made a large number of recordings between 1931 and 1947, among these many tangos, and most of them composed especially for him.
Most certainly the tango in Greece had a different meaning than tangos in other European countries, during the 20s and 30s when the tango was popularly regarded as the most fashionable dance music. Since the principalities of what is now Greece united for the first time, Greeks were anxious to establish a national culture at variance with what they had experienced under their Ottoman rulers. After 500 years of oppression they wanted to eradicate all remaining traces of the Orient in their culture.
The attempt to do this in the sphere of pop music was more or less of a failure. The music of the oriental refugees became mixed with the Manga subculture in Greek seaports to a musical style known as Rembetiko. In spite of all official attempts to suppress and discredit it, Rembetiko became and remained the mainstay of Greek popular music. There were several attempts to completely overturn the status quo of oriental song traditions by eagerly embracing foreign traditions such as the Neapolitan song, the French chanson and even the Argentinean tango. This was the reason why many Greek singers of the 30s had Tangos in their repertoire, though most of them were rather uninspired.
Among these singers SOFIA VEMBO (1912-1978) was definitely an exception. Whereas the recording of many of her contemporaries appear undistinguished to us today, in Vembo's early tango records we recognize the same power and intensity which she drew on in her opposition to the occupying fascist power. It was this strength that made her a leading figure in the resistance movement and an idol of a younger generation of Greek singers.
The so-called ORIENTAL TANGO is also a musical phenomenon that arose at this time due to the cultural conflicts mentioned above. This hybrid was in fact a version of the Rumba: it deliberately ignored genuinely oriental forms in favour of what in the minds of many Europeans was believed exotically oriental instrumentation, evoking not only the magic of the snake charmer but also the steamy erotic of the Harem! Even this strange curiosity of Greek cultural history is not without a certain charm.
FARID EL ATRACHE (1914-1974) and his sister Amal El Atrache, known as ASMAHAN (1918-1944), were born to a distinguished Syrian Druze family that was active in the political struggle to free Syria from French rule after World War I. On the death of their father in 1924, the family immigrated to Egypt. In order to make ends meet the mother had to sing at family celebrations and clubs where the oud, or Arabic lute, was played. Farid's musical talents were apparent from the start. After receiving a classical musical training he performed with his younger sister who was a gifted singer and they pursued their musical careers together. At her brother's side, who himself was renowned for his own passionate singing, and as a master of the oud, Asmahan became a legend. Their careers were also dramatically enhanced by their work in film, which during the 30s was establishing itself an important mass media in Arabic culture. Farid was acquiring recognition both as a composer and an arranger. He was skilled in introducing Flamenco and Tango themes into otherwise classical Arabic music, while in her singing, Asmahan adopted western techniques without diminishing the oriental nature of what she sang, or otherwise alienating her Arab following. Farid and Asmahan's immensely innovative and popular way of working with each other musically was brought to an end very tragically with Asmahan's sudden death in 1944. At the time her death conspiracy theories abounded as to the secret agent responsible for her dermise. Farid, who was now forced to pursue his career alone, became renowned for his melancholy singing and was dubbed the "sad singer". In addition to his accomplishments as a musician, conductor, and composer, his acting brought him great acclaim. Through his performances in a seemingly endless series of romantic films he was destined to break female hearts throughout the Arab world. He became renowned as a womanizer and his exploits with actresses, singers and dancers enthralled his steadily growing number of fans. He resolutely refused to become married, initially stating that marriage would be damaging to his creativity as an artist. He then rather coquettishly claimed that as an aging old man, he on no account wanted to be responsible of leaving some beautiful young women a widow. His friends and fellow musicians however, were of the opinion that no women had ever succeeded in removing the emptiness he continued to feel from the loss of his sister.
LILI BONICHE was born in 1921 to a Sephardic family of Andalusian origins, in the Kashbah of Algiers. He was only 10 years old when he left his family to be trained in the art of playing the oud, or Arabic lute. His teacher was a master of Haouzi, a regional style of Arabo-andalusian music. By the age of 15 he had made his musical début on Algerian radio. As he developed further he gradually moved away from classical Arabic music being strongly attracted by 40s nightclub styles (typical at that time in regions to the south and east of the Mediterranean coast): jazz, flamenco, mambo and rumba were all featured together with the "established" dances such as the tango, paso doble and brought together with the Algerian song tradition of the "Chaâbi" in a swinging and sensuous mixture that enjoyed great popularity.
In bringing this rich mixture of cultural styles into a further synthesis with his own cultural origins Lili Boniche gradually developed a style of his own, which he called "Francarbe". This was an elegant and self-confident form of popular music, that could well been termed "world music", had this term then existed!
As a protagonist of Francarbe in the late 40s and 50s, Lili Boniche made a career for himself; first in Algeria and later in Paris where his first recordings were made. In the 90s, the term "world music" by now in place, he had a comeback with his album "Alger, Alger", produced by Bill Laswell. Also in concerts, with the help of electric guitar and amplification, he attempted to rescue the charm and elegance of this music of a by-gone era from oblivion.


Vetaran actress Reema Lagoo passed away in Mumbai due to cardiac arrest. She played memorable mom roles on screen in huge block busters like Hum Aapke Hai Kaun. She was taken to Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital as she complained of chest pain on Wednesday where she breathed her last. She was only 59.
During Amitabh Bachchan decade, Nirupa Roy played his mom in many films and that was the generation of angry young man. The society and the youth were angered and the people were suffering with no jobs and slow economy. Reema Lagoo was the next generation mother to all the fun children. Mostly her characters are from rich families in the films. Though she got the creative satisfaction from Marathi films, she gained worldwide popularity with Bollywood. Whether one likes the goody goody films or not, but one can’t stop liking Reema Lagoo as lovely mom of two young girls in Hum Aapke hai kaun or playing Kaikeyi role in Hum Saath Saath Hain. She almost started the Bollywood career with the blockbusters Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak, Maine Pyar Kiya.
Reema Lagoo played Mother India for Sanjay Dutt in Vaastav. This was an intense character and both mother and son played the roles very well and this film was a milestone in Sanjay Dutt’s career. Though she didn’t have any significant mom roles lately, she would be forever remembered as a beautiful and a wonderful mother in some of the blockbuster films.


Recorded Cicely Tyson as our Narrator
We recently had the pleasure of spending an afternoon with Miss Cicely Tyson when she came in to record the narration for the film. She was as lovely as you can imagine. She is a shining example of how a professional should perform. Her voice resonated with authenticity as this story of pursuing your dream in a segregated America and the lack of civil rights rang true to her. She is not only an icon, but a role model who continues to make an impact. She was recently nominated for another Emmy for playing the mother to Viola Davis' character on "How to Get Away with Murder". When I asked her how life was in "Shondaland", she smiled and replied "Life is good in Shondaland". ;-)
Thank you Miss Tyson for your time, your grace and your voice.


Maria Halle Berry was born on August 14th, 1966 in Cleveland, Ohio and her name was legally changed to Halle Berry at age five. Her white mother Judith Ann was a psychiatric nurse, and her father Jerome Jesse Berry was an African-american attendant working at the same hospital.
Halle's parents divorced when she was four years old, and from that point on, she and her sister Heidi were raised by their mother. Halle recounted the tumultuous years of her parent's marriage in the press, saying she continually witnessed her father being abusive to her mother. Also, Halle was quoted as saying in published reports that she'd been estranged from her father since her parents divorced. “I haven't heard from him,” Halle was quoted as saying, “...maybe he's not alive.”
In high school Halle was a cheerleader, honor student, editor of her school newspaper and prom queen. While studying in Cayahoga Community College, she entered several beauty contests. She had previously won the 'Miss Teen' beauty pageant in 1985 and she'd also won the 'Miss Ohio' pageant in 1986. She was also the first Black woman to enter the 'Miss World' beauty pageant in 1986 (maybe this matters to someone, so I thought I'd include this tid-bit of info.), and there she came in sixth place.
Halle went to New York to pursue an acting career in 1989 and quickly ran out of money after she arrived. Behind this, she briefly slept in a homeless shelter. During this time, she did land a role in the short-lived TV series 'Living Dolls' which was shot in NYC. During the taping of Living Dolls, Halle lapsed into a coma and was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. After she recovered, she continued working on the TV series before she moved to Los Angeles where she went on to have a recurring role in the television series, 'Knots Landing'.
Now, we all know how the rest of Halle's story goes in terms of her film career...her movie debut was in Spike Lee's 'Jungle Fever' in 1991, after that she was in the movie 'Strictly business'; she went on to play roles in other flicks like 'Catwoman', 'Swordfish', 'Monster's Ball', etc. But what I want to talk about here is Halle's relationship fiascoes.
Now recently, it was reported that Halle and Oliver Martinez had filed for a divorce. As a result, their lawyers are now hashing out how their assets will be divided. Mind you, this is Halle's third failed marriage and she has two kids by different fathers. With that said, here's two things I'm speculating about Halle's marriage to Oliver...
One: Being that Oliver Martinez is a fair-skinned latino, Halle probably thought their marriage had a better chance of going the distance than her marriages to Dave Justice and Eric Benet. She probably also thought this about her relationship with her 'rainbeau' Gabriel Aubry.
Two: Halle probably did everything she could to make her marriage to Oliver work, and she probably put everything she had into finalizing some kind of wedding plans between her and Gabriel.
Now, with that being said, I'm sure Halle did everything she could to save every one of her relationships hoping they'd result in life-long marriages. That is, she did everything except the one thing that would have truly saved them. And that certain thing is resolving the childhood traumas that are wrecking, and will continue to ruin her relationships with men.
And I'd also like to note two other points about Halle and her relationships...those being: one, even though I'm a Black Nationalist who prefers to see Black women with Black men, I really do feel more empathy than glee behind Halle's marriage troubles. And two, this type of thing doesn't just happen to Black female celebrities, just ask the singer Seal, he'll tell you all about the lowly nature of white women.
But in regards to Halle's marriage misadventures, I think she feels/felt that her beauty (at least by european standards) and celebrity, would shield her from these types of relationship problems. But no one can avoid the all important question that I keep bringing up on this Blog in reference to relationships, and that question is: Do you know who you're attracting and who you're attracted to?
I hope at some point Halle understands that all the childhood traumas she suffered are directly rooted to her marriage problems. Cause until Halle does the subconscious work to heal and resolve what she saw her mother go through, and the absence of her father, she'll never be in the stable relationship or marriage she's so desperately seeking.
And I hope Halle also understands the legacy of bad relationships that resulted in her father and mother divorcing. I'm willing to bet money that Halle's father and mother came from unstable and abusive households, so there's no way they could have created a stable one for her.
And the bottom line to all these relationship mishaps is this universal rule: if you come from an unstable and abusive household, you're gonna' attract and be attracted to people from unstable and abusive households.
AND THAT'S EVERYBODY! REGARDLESS OF GENDER OR ETHNICITY!
And even if Halle seeks out some form of traditional therapy, she's more than likely not gonna' have this problem resolved; because therapists rarely do any work at subconscious levels and they're usually more interested in putting people on prescription drugs than anything else.
But regardless of the method, I hope Halle is soon able to reconcile and recognize what's going on in her subconscious mind, so she can indeed find Mr. right one day and live happily ever after.


After a good amount of hype on their blog (maybe I was the only one following it), Neiman Marcus has announced that Susan Sarandon and her daughter Eva Amurri are the cover girls for their new ad campaign. Great choice. It has the celebrity element, but they are both super classy, timeless, and gorgeous. The photos are phenomenal.
Eva has come a long way since Saved! She looks more and more like her mother as she gets older. Not bad genes to have.

Bobb Trimble - Premonitions Fantasy
With outspoken fans like Ariel Pink, Thurston Moore, and Devendra Banhart, you'd think maybe Bobb Trimble would finally be getting his due after toiling in obscurity for 26 years. But no, this woefully out-of-time genius is still just as unknown now as he was in 1980 when he self-released his debut album, Iron Curtain Innocence. The album drew heavily on California psych and showed Trimble to be an astonishingly gifted songwriter and vocalist. The album was barely distributed outside Trimble's home state of Massachusetts and sank without a trace. However, psych collectors eventually stumbled on the album and collectively shit their pants. Originals now trade hands on ebay for about $1,000.
Trimble followed up his debut with the even better Harvest of Dreams which was recently bootlegged by UK label Radioactive Records. Trimble, who is hip enough to actually have a myspace profile and a website, eventually found out and was not happy about it. According to his website, Trimble is in talks with a few labels right now to legitimately resissue his first two albums using the original mastertapes.


To Canada by way of Lebanon, Raphaela is a multicultural singer/songwriter. She aims to evoke wonder and daydreaming in her audience through her timeless, affectionate and mature sounding voice, lyrics and melodies.
Raphaela grew up in Beirut, Lebanon, in a household filled with music; her mother is a professional opera singer and her dad listens to the classics daily. Her parents instilled the love of music in Raphaela when she was 7 years old. Throughout her formative years, she honed her musical skills learning piano, guitar, musical theory, and voice lessons.
Raphaela discovered her knack for storytelling and writing melodies At 14 years old. In Lebanon, she recorded her first EP of original music. However, it sat in Raphaela’s closet for years while she figured out music marketing.
Since she preferred to write songs in English, at 19, she realized that to make it as an artist, she needed to pack her bags and move back to her birth city of Ottawa, Canada. That’s what she did.
A pursuit of university studies in Journalism and Communications allowed Raphaela to hone in on her writing skills, which in turn led her to become a better songwriter and storyteller. During the Covid-19 pandemic, Raphaela reaffirmed her lifelong love for music and decided to independently write and release her original music.
Since then, she has released her first three singles, “Fifth Street” and “South of France” in 2022, and her third single “Happy Endings” released in 2023.
Raphaela is working on more new releases for 2024.
Raphaela’s key shows to date include:
A feature performance at the National Women's Show in Ottawa on October 21, 2023

But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams
his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing
Maya Angelou, one of the most remarkable voices to address life during the Jim Crow days in southern America, passed away on 28 May at her home in Winston-Salem. She was 86.
Angelou has been many things to many people: streetcar conductor, dancer, singer, single mother, writer, poet, actress, film director, civil rights activist, and friend to notable eminent Americans including Martin Luther King Jr., Malcolm X, Oprah Winfrey, and Michelle and Barack Obama. Able to speak six languages, Angelou also worked as a magazine and newspaper editor in Cairo and as an administrative assistant in Ghana.
One of Angelou’s most notable works is I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, an autobiographical work which tells of Angelou’s childhood in Arkansas and her coming-of-age as she moves to Missouri and later to California. The style and themes of the book make it both a memoir and a work of literature, even though some took issue with the frank depictions of racism, lesbianism, and rape.
In 1993, Maya Angelou was also invited to recite her poem “On the Pulse of Morning” at President Bill Clinton’s first inaugural ceremony, becoming the second poet in history to speak at a presidential inauguration after Robert Frost.
True to her word, Maya Angelou will always be a rainbow in my cloud.


Bernie Clifton has established himself, in no uncertain terms, as one of the funniest and most versatile entertainers in British showbusiness, through numerous appearances on television, including his own series ‘Theatre Royal’, in concert and cabaret, summer season and pantomime.
He is renowned as one of the craziest visual comedians in the business.
Bernie was born on Merseyside and started entertaining as a teenager, working as one half of a vocal comedy duo. However it was after he completed National Service in The Royal Air Force that he turned professional and set about making a name for himself on the tough northern club circuit. It was here that he developed as a comedian, serving his showbusiness apprenticeship, before he moved naturally into television. His TV debut came in 1971 on BBC’s ‘The Good Old Days’, followed by several appearances on ‘The Comedians’.
Next came three series of ‘Crackerjack’ interspersed between theatre and cabaret tours in Britain, and overseas in Australia. All the time he was developing a unique act and comedy style, based on the use of a multitude of zany props and crazy visual-
In 1979 Bernie Clifton was chosen to appear in The Royal Variety Show. When it was screened on television, a few days later, he was inundated with offers of work, including a contract with ATV which culminated in his own special, ‘Bernie Clifton on Stage’ and led to his series ‘Theatre Royal’. Since then he has appeared regularly on television guesting on quiz shows, variety shows and chat shows.
Bernie has also made dozens of radio appearances and has hosted, for several years, his own hilarious BBC Radio series ‘Bernie Clifton’s Comedy Store’ as well as travelling throughout Great Britain, for the BBC, to compere the popular series ‘Three In A Row’.
Summer Season has played a major part in his career –
A very active worker for charity, including the showbusiness fraternity The Grand Order Of Water Rats, Bernie has raised a great deal of money for several worthy causes, through, amongst other things, running in the annual London Marathon.
Today, Bernie Clifton has carved a unique position for himself in showbusiness; a star of pantomime, summer season, concert, cabaret, radio and television – and he is in great demand throughout the country.
Quite simply, Bernie is one of the most original comedians in the entertainment industry, and his engaging style and zany humour have won him many friends all over the world. His visual comedy creations, including the giant shark, the Arab sheikh, the piggyback nun, the fat man and, of course, the dancing ostrich, have established him in a league of his own.

Oh, Cara, you saucy little minx you. Miss Delevingne was caught by the paparazzi two weeks ago dropping a ‘packet of mysterious white powder’ outside her Belgravia home.
The giggling Victoria’s Secret model and current face of H&M tried to discreetly cover it with her foot, but London paparazzi caught the moment the (almost empty) packet went flying from her hands on camera.
And then, everybody kind of… forgot about it.
When a certain other Brit super model was caught with cocaine back in 2005, the tabloids had a field day. Kate Moss – who at the time was also the face of H&M – was swiftly dropped by the brand and later made a public apology to “all the people I have let down.”
So why didn’t the same media storm follow Cara?
The bisexual babe released this photo on Instagram of her locking lips with equally stunning Sienna Miller, and the internet went bonkers.
Nobody was talking about the drugs. They were far more interested in a little lady on lady action.
It’s a move than even Business Insider called “brilliant”.
The kiss that I’m tentatively calling the kiss of 2013 occurred at last week’s Met Ball, otherwise known as Anna Wintour’s Cool Kids Club.
In case you’ve been living under a fashion rock, the Met Ball is like the Oscars of fashion. This year’s theme was ‘Punk: Chaos to Couture”, and the beautiful people of Hollywood took to the theme with varying degrees of success (See: Kim Kardashian.)
Every celebrity media hub and blogger worth their salt hones in on the Met Ball like grammar nazis to a YouTube comment section. This means that a) there’s no way a kiss like this would be missed, and b) the Met Ball provides a nice little distraction from pesky things like drugs and butter fingers.
A spokesman for H&M told The Daily Mail that “Our team will evaluate the evidence over the next few days. If the story is true, then we will take action.” As of yet, they haven’t done a thing.
Even if she is dropped from the brand, history shows that it almost certainly won’t be the end of Cara Delevingne. Kate Moss’s agent Sarah Doukas says that the 2005 cocaine scandal that rocked Miss Moss’s career actually caused the model’s earnings to increase over time.
It just goes to show that people will forgive you anything if you’re beautiful enough.
This is what Cara wore to the Met Ball. I would have made out with her too given the chance.
What do you think of the whole situation? Do you think she should be punished or are people making a big deal over nothing?

Jon Bon Jovi helped a fan who has cancer realize a lifetime dream when he joined her for a surprise meal at his restaurant. Carol Cesario, who has stage 4 lung cancer, was completely stunned on Friday when the rock star showed up at her table while she was dining with friends and family at his JBJ Soul Kitchen eatery in Toms River, New Jersey. An online video of the meeting, which can be seen below, shows the mother of four shouting out "Oh my God!" as she turns around to see the rocker standing just inches away and looking directly at her.

Once upon a time in a land called Hollywood, there were two actors named Humphrey Bogart
and Richard Burton.
Humphrey made his name initially in gangster films, later becoming famous as the detective Sam Spade in The Maltese Falcon and as Rick in Casablanca. Richard was a British actor known for his marriage to Elizabeth Taylor, performing with her as a dysfunctional, alcoholic husband and wife in Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? (which was a pretty accurate portrayal of their real life marriage).
Now, both of these guys were pretty celebrated, highly-paid, famous actors that are remembered today as legends of the golden age of Hollywood. Both were known womanizers with heavy drinking habits and a disdain for authority. Neither were classically trained actors, and they didn’t really have much respect for the studio system and the Academy. According to actress Lauren Bacall, for instance, Bogey “never felt that people in town liked him that much.” They just liked to act and they were lucky to get paid for it. Good old chaps.
One day, Richard and Humphrey were hanging out, chatting about bourbon, women and who had the best taste in either, when somehow the subject of who was the better actor came up. Apparently, they initially decided to perform the same scene from Hamlet, back to back before an unbiased audience to decide who was better, but I suppose one glass of whiskey later they eventually just started shouting at each other. At some point, Richard stands up and challenges Bogey, and Bogey storms out of the room.
After a moment, Bogey comes back into the room with the Oscar that he won in 1951 for The African Queen, thumps it down on the table and growls, “You were saying, Dick?”
Burton was dead silent.
Just once, I’d love to have a moment like this.


The grandiose outfit, which has become the most memorable detail of the wedding of the century, still delights and remains the dream of every girl. Princess Diana’s dress is considered a work of art, although there is a lot of controversy about the style.
Lady Dee’s dress — an outfit with history
The outfit was designed by a married couple of designers David and Elizabeth Emmanuel. At the time of the wedding, among the many fashionable eminent designers, Diana preferred these young and promising newcomers. Subsequently, members of the royal family also turned to the Emmanuelle couple about outfits.
Subsequently, the couple wrote a whole book about Lady Diana’s wedding dress, which included samples of silk and sketches of the dress for the princess. The work on the dress was painstaking, taking into account not only the traditions of the royal family, but also the tastes of Diana herself, the place of the ceremony.
Diana’s wedding dress
The most memorable detail of the outfit is a long train, which reached eight meters in length. This is the longest train in the history of the royal family. He looked chic on the steps of the cathedral, and Diana herself had to train before the ceremony with the help of sheets.
Princess Diana’s wedding dress with a train was made of ivory silk, taffeta was woven to order. This is not just a high-quality canvas, ten thousand pearls and countless mother-of-pearl sequins are located on taffeta.
In total, six types of fabric were used to sew Princess Diana’s dress. The length of the wedding veil was also about eight meters, and it took as many as 137 meters of fabric to make it. Diana’s wedding dress was adorned with lace that belonged to Queen Elizabeth herself, and a small gold horseshoe with a diamond for good luck. Princess Diana’s wedding dress is still considered the embodiment of every girl’s dream — to become a princess by marrying a prince.

I have wanted to see Paul McCartney for 45 years and I am so glad I finally got to see him. The show was spectacular. There were only 5 guys on the stage, no back up singers or more instuments but WOW what music they made. He sang songs from his days with the Beatles, days with Wings and many of his solo works. He had a tribute to Linda, a tribute to John and a tribute to George. He played many different guitars, a mandalin, a ukulele and the piano. The crowd of over 40,000 sang along much of the time and cheered him vigorously which he really liked. He told stories and interacted with the audience often. He sang for 3 hours which included 2 encores, he took no breaks or stopped for a sip of water. One of the highlights of the night was the song Live and Let Die. The stage exploded a few times and there were fireworks going off behind the stage. It took my breath away and the crowd went nuts. If you ever get the chance to see Sir Paul I urge you to not miss him.
This photo was taken with a cell phone, so it's not that good, but it does show the two giant screens on either side of the stage. I also had binoculars with me.

“I’m Lachi, a black girl going blind, just trying to stay fabulous.”
That’s how New York based musician Lachi starts most of her YouTube videos.
She’s upfront, and unapologetic, holding her bedazzled white cane in her hand.
This week on Vision Australia Radio’s Studio 1, host Matthew Layton speaks with the musician, writer and activist about her blossoming career.
Coming off the back of the virtual White Stick Festival in October, Lachi is continuing her work and is about to release new music.
As the Founder of RAMPD, Lachi also advocates for disability inclusion in music and entertainment in the US.
She understands the tightrope of entering a competitive industry and juggling whether to disclose her vision loss.
“I was able to rise through the ranks in music without having my blindness be the reason that people listen to my music,” she told Studio 1.
“But I really did appreciate coming out and saying, ‘hey, you know what? I have a disability and I’m not going to hind behind it, you’re going to know that I have a disability’.”
Moving to New York has also proved fruitful both creatively and personally, as it is one of the more accessible states in the US but also links her to some of the best global artists.
Lachi was recently invited to a writing camp in the city with legendary singer Alicia Keys, which she described as huge honour.

This interview originally appeared in NARC Magazine Issue 114 (February 2016)
On the day I interview a Ramone, something I’ve wanted to do all my writing life, David Bowie dies.
So inevitably, when I get through to Richie Ramone on Skype, the first thing we discuss is the death of The Dame. In a broad New Jersey accent, Richie tells me he “just expect[s] it now, kinda. You try not to get too upset. When you get to 70 you know time ain’t on your side. But who next? I guess it’s the Stones”.
Richie Ramone got the rock’n’roll bug early on. “When I was in high school I got hold of fake ID. I was sixteen and living in New Jersey and I used to come up to the city, and that’s where I saw the Ramones. I saw them a few times, and I was fan, totally”.
“I hated all that arena rock shit, but around 1979/1980 I started hanging out at CBGBs, those kind of places, and I saw so many great bands, and I thought, this is what I want, this is how I want to live my life”
“I mean I was a fan, but I didn’t have any Ramones posters on my walls. When I joined the band I joined as a musician. I’ve been playing the drums since I was five years old so I was brought in because I could play.”
Born Richie Rheinhart, Richie Ramone was third in a line of excellent drummers (after Tommy and Marky) and played on the albums Too Tough to Die, Animal Boy and Halfway to Sanity. “I wrote a lot of material for the band” says Richie. “I wrote ‘I’m Not Jesus’ and ‘Somebody Put Something in my Drink’ and I’m the only drummer who wrote songs for the band”
He was also the only Ramones drummer to sing on a track when he recorded ‘You can’t say anything nice’ for the band.
Punk rock to the soles of his Keds, Richie also played on solo work by Dee Dee and the posthumous (and rather excellent) Joey Ramone album Ya Know?. As far as Joey was concerned “Richie saved the band. He’s the greatest thing to happen to the Ramones. He put the spirit back”.
The love is obviously mutual as Richie continues to play at the annual Joey Ramone Birthday Bash
“I’m off to the studio this week in LA” Richie tells me. “I’m working on my second solo album, Cellophane, and I’m really looking forward to it. I don’t play great guitar, but I play enough to write songs”. Unfortunately the album won’t be ready for the tour. “Nah, that’s unfortunate, I know” he says, frustrated at the timing. But Richie is one busy boy, recording with the Gobshites, the Rock’n’Roll Rats, and previously with Fred Schneider of the B52s and Dan Sartain.
Richie plays The Cluny on February 9 and it’s not going to be a night for nostalgia. “I’ll be playing Ramones classics, songs I wrote and songs I didn’t, and I’ll be playing a lot of my own material from my solo albums” he says.
“I heard about audiences up there” he says of Newcastle. “You guys really like punk rock, right?”
Oh yes, I tell him, oh yes.


Getting tattoo is not an easy decision. It’s permanent body art that cannot be removed easily. Thus, celebrities also think hard before getting their body inked with their favorite tattoo designs. Some of them give up and choose fake tattoos instead. You may be curious to find out fake celebrity tattoos as it’s quite hard to recognize which is a real tattoo and which one is fake. Temporary tattoos are perfect for those who don’t want the ink to stay on their ink permanently.
Revealing fake celebrity tattoos
There are celebrities who make you do double take with their tattoos. Some of them are real and many of them are fake. Body art is part of an important element for celebrity beauty makeovers. Some celebrities may get their body inked with a tattoo for the professional reason such as to play a certain role in a movie, for a photo shoot, and much more. However, some of the celebrities do fake tattoos for fun reasons or you can call it makeup. Here are examples of fake tattoos of celebrities that make you do double check:
Ariana Grande’s tattoo is found to be fake. She has a tattoo on her inner forearm. The lettering tattoo was once believed as the real one that it looked awesome and fit her well. However, it’s only temporary tattoo that will be disappeared or removed in couple days or weeks.
You may also a maze of Zayn Malik’s tattoo on his face. How can he risk his handsome face with a permanent tattoo as it’s an asset for his career? Even though it looks cool, but it’s way too risky to get a tattoo on face especially for a celebrity. Zayn has been famous for his tattoos all over his body and that’s what makes people believe that he has face inked with the tattoo. In fact, it’s the fake tattoo.
Other fake celebrity tattoos
Besides Zayn and Ariana, there are other fake tattoos that may put you in awe because they look real. Cara Delevingne got the super edgy tattoo which put people in amazed because she had her tattoos all over her arms and chest. Most people believe it’s real tattoo but it’s fake. There is also Miranda Cosgrove who got a pineapple tattoo on her wrist. It looks cute and pretty but it’s only temporary tattoo. Well, the tattoo is not for those who are indecisive. It’s for those who are determined. Those are fake celebrity tattoos that may have tricked you and there are more.


A new mural was unveiled in Montreal on September 15 in honour of Oscar Peterson, the world-renowned Canadian jazz musician who died in 2007 at the age of 82. The piece is positioned opposite the park already named for him.
Local artist Gene Pendon painted the 88-m2 (950-sf) mural on a building at the corner of Rues Des Seigneurs and Saint-Jacques, within the neighbourhood of Little Burgundy where Peterson was born and raised.
“I am overwhelmed and so pleased for Oscar to be a visible part of this community for a very long time,” Kelly Peterson, the pianist’s widow, told CBC News. “It was very important to him to always keep in mind where he came from.”
The mural depicts piano notes on a scroll, representing the musician’s route through jazz history, from his early days in Little Burgundy to fame and accolades like the Order of Canada and the Governor General’s Performing Arts Award for Lifetime Achievement.

An Evening With Groucho
Saturday, August 20
Featuring Frank Ferrante
Listiak Auditorium, 7:30 p.m.
Note: This show replaces the originally scheduled "The Wonder Bread Years" due to a schedule conflict for the actor.
Dubbed "nothing short of masterful" by the Chicago Tribune, award-winning actor Frank Ferrante
recreates his PBS, New York and London acclaimed stage portrayal of the
legendary comedian in this fast paced 90 minutes of hilarity.
This two-act comedy consists of the best Groucho one-liners, anecdotes and songs including “Hooray for Captain Spalding,” and “Lydia, the Tattooed Lady.” The audience literally becomes
part of the show as Ferrante ad-libs his way throughout the performance in grand
Groucho style. Accompanied by his onstage pianist, Ferrante portrays the young
Groucho of stage and film and reacquaints us with the likes of brothers Harpo,
Chico, Zeppo and Gummo, Charlie Chaplin, W.C. Fields and Marx foil Margaret
A show perfect for all ages!
Hal Holbrook, known for "Mark Twain Tonight", said of Ferrante's portrait of
Groucho Marx: "What you give us on the stage is special. Nobody can do what you do."


Some highlights from the films: Dorothy Dandridge hiding under the piano at a Hollywood party with Marilyn Monroe and Ava Gardner, her colleagues and apparently friends, who are still remembered and revered while Dandridge is all but forgotten. Beyonce belting out her exquisite version of Edda James, tears streaming down her cheeks. Paltrow showing some remarkable vocal talent and unsuspected (by me) raw sexuality as she sings and moves to “Shake That Thing.” June Carter throwing her can of orange soda at Johnny and the drunken boys in in the band as she reads them out for their unprofessional behavior. And the one that I keep coming back to whenever nobody can hear me – Carter (Witherspoon) and Cash (Phoenix) doing a bang up job on “Jackson”:
We got married in a fever
Hotter than a pepper sprout
We been talking about Jackson
Ever since the fire went out
For all the things one could say about these movies and the music that runs through them, only two are important to me right now. The singers portrayed in these films and the actors who play them are shining examples of amazing talent, which, despite so many obstacles and so much misfortune, brought joy to millions of people. And the music they wrote and performed is a fantastic human resource for the rest of us. Get rhythm when you get the blues!


Happy International Women’s Day! Since I already have a thread going on twitter, I thought I would actually write about it and give you guys some empowering and inspiring women who smashed the patriarchy.
1. Eleanor Roosevelt.
Eleanor Roosevelt was a first lady, served at the United Nations, and was the first chair of the Presidential Commission on the Status of Women. She was known for being outspoken on human rights issues, racial relations, and women’s rights. She was a champion for women in politics and changed what it meant to be a first lady. She is and always will be an inspiration for women and activists around the world. *
Malala Yousafzai was shot by the Taliban when she was fourteen years old because she refused to ignore her right to education. She was seventeen years old when she received the Nobel Peace Prize. She fights for education for women around the world and is inspiring a new generation of intelligent and freedom-seeking women. **
3. Lucille Ball
Lucille Ball was the first woman to run a major television company. Her and her first husband, Desi Arnaz, may have been, if not surely, the first interracial couple on television. She was a comedian, actress, and model. She is best known for her self-produced famous show, I Love Lucy. ***
4. Mary Wollstonecraft
While not well-known today, Mary Wollstonecraft was a pioneer of her time. She was a feminist writer and philosopher during the Enlightenment in Europe. The Enlightenment was a time of new ideas and invention, however women’s education was not included in that. Mary Wollstonecraft wrote A Vindication of the Rights of Women, and in it she wrote about how women are not seen as humans, they are seen as simply “women,” which men saw as something below human. She encouraged women to go into the male-dominated fields. ****
By the way, her daughter was Mary Shelley! As in, the author of Frankenstein!
5. J.K. Rowling
One of my personal favorites, J.K. Rowling is a British author, screenwriter, and producer. Obviously, she is most famous for her Harry Potter series. She was the first author (ever!) to become a billionare, however it is reported that now she is only a millionare. Yes, only. In her Harry Potter series, there are several fantastic feminist icons. For example. Miss Hermione Granger, “the brightest witch of her age,” and Professor McGonagall who is not afraid to lay down the law. And she proved that women can make just as good, if not better, villains than men. *****
These are some of my personal favorites, although I could name dozens of other women who I am so thankful for. I also think that is important that we remember the women who came before us and fought for our right to education, to vote, and to do so many other things we take for granted. (Seriously, you’d be surprised what we had to work for.)
I hope you all have a wonderful, equal, and empowering International Women’s Day!

Twitch has apparently crashed as popular streamer Ninja teamed up with prominent YouTuber PewDiePie to play “Friday Fortnite”, with users complaining that they could not access the web or the chat rooms during the two gaming megastars’ much-hyped collaboration.
As Felix Kjellberg, aka PewDiePie, joined Tyler “Ninja” Blevins for a Friday Fortnite competition, the Swedish YouTuber couldn’t resist asking the question, which has probably been on his mind for a long time: he wondered as to who was a better gamer – he or Canadian rapper Drake, with home Blevins teamed up last year.
Bursting into laughter, Ninja quickly fired back with a shocking (for Pewds) response, revealing that the “Hotline Bling” rapper is a more skilled gamer – a confession that couldn’t help but trigger the YouTuber.
“Don’t f*cking embarrass me. F*ck off. I resurrected you!” Kjellberg replied.
Even though Ninja didn’t appreciate Pewds’ gaming skills, he jokingly said that Drake “couldn’t touch” his T-Series diss tracks, which were removed from the Indian YouTube at the height of the Great Subscriber War between.
Social media users, however, tended to disagree with Ninja’s assessment and suggested that Felix is way better than Drake:
The PewDiePie-Ninja collab has attracted so many viewers that Twitch users started reporting that the duo had broken the live streaming platform: the website just wouldn’t load.
When Ninja famously team up with Drake in March 2018, the stream viewing count blew up as the Grammy-winning rapper tweeted the link, growing from 200,000 to over 600,000 and breaking the previous record of 388,000. At the time, Drake revealed that he’d been playing Fortnite for a month or two.
