Entertainment Weekly Declares Robin Williams’ Suicide Pop Culturally “Right On Target!”
It’s no surprise that “Entertainment Weekly” would put a thoughtful image of Robin Williams on their cover for their August 22/29 double issue to honor him following his death on August 11.
No surprise, either, that inside there’s a six-page tribute to him celebrating his TV and movie career.
But the bold editorial choice comes on the last page, on EW’s frivolous weekly feature of sarcasm and touchy-feeliness, “The Bullseye.” Depending on the subjects’ locations, they’re handled one of two ways: with either a bitchy bit of snark or a HuffPo-quality cutesy group-hug cuddle-puddle kiss-ass blurb.
“Here’s a look at the pop culture news that was right on target this week – and the events that missed the mark,” reads the Bullseye’s subheading.
Well, I’m sure that wherever Robin Williams is, he’s pleased to know that his suicide from severe depression didn’t “miss the mark” and is being celebrated as being “right on target.”

To understand just how monumental the music was at SpareFoot’s recent SXSW party, SPARE BEATS, one needs only to ask one of our headliners, international DJ Roxy Cottontail:
“I heard the sound resonating [during opening sets] and I couldn’t wait to get on. Part of the ceiling was falling off because the bass was so large.”
One can only imagine how there was any ceiling left at Molotov after she and fellow headliner Jayceeoh took their turns at the turntables on stage. The structural integrity of a venue is of little concern to Roxy, who has made her name breaking down musical boundaries all over the world.
As a DJ, Roxy Cottontail has worked to blend and transcend genres and forge her own identity. She draws musical inspiration everywhere, from her childhood hero Cyndi Lauper to Southern rap greats like Bun B and Chamillionaire. Her edgy pink-haired look earned her the loving nickname “George,” after Lauper’s flamboyant contemporary Boy George. Now an established international artist, Roxy has built her own genre by bringing a vast wealth of influences to the New York club scene.
Roxy found her way into electronic music similarly to how SpareFoot’s own CEO Chuck found his way into self-storage— being assigned a fatefully significant random roommate. Roxy attended New York’s Pratt Institute and lived with the legendary party promoter and DJ Justine D, who introduced her to a variety of club promoters and emergent DJ talents like Spank Rock and Diplo. It wasn’t long before Roxy began playing her own sets in clubs around the Northeast and formulating her unique style.
While she prefers to keep her real name secret, Roxy attributes much of her individuality to her parents’ love and encouragement throughout the pre-Roxy years in Maryland. “My parents were so supportive of me my whole life,” she said. Roxy recalled the period in high school when she began experimenting with fashion. “My mom would document my wardrobe before I left for school every day,” Roxy recalled. In fact, she still has the photo album her mother, now a retired music teacher, had assembled— over 300 different outfits in all.
This is Roxy’s sixth year performing at SXSW, and although she loves the invigorating atmosphere, the call of the studio is too strong for her to stick around for long. “I’m making monumental music in New York and I really need to put it out,” she explained. Roxy is currently working on I Love Boys, a new EP recorded with “refix” legend Chew Fu, for release on her own label, Bunnyjawn, in June.
Despite her ambitious recording goals, Roxy will still get her party on in the coming months. She encourages fans in Miami to check out Tropical Tea at the Foxhole Lounge on March 24th, where she and a huge lineup of musicians will be crumbling yet another ceiling. If you can’t make her performances and need your Roxycotton fix, you can visit her blog for news and releases.


Did You Know? By Emma Cowley
Did You Know? Many of us know Harry Belefonte as the famous “Day-O” singer but did you know that he was also an activist that fought against racism as well? He used his entertainment fortune to help fund the civil rights movement at home along with human rights causes worldwide. Belefonte was a confidant to Reverend Martin Luther King Jr. and spent years as a liaison between the civil rights movement and entertainment capitals of Hollywood and NYC. Belefonte met King in 1956 when he invited him to hear him preach at Harlems’s Abyssinian Baptist Church. After hearing King’s sermon he spoke of King as a transformative influence in his life. He was a big contributor to King’s movement and he was influential in getting his friends Frank Sinatra, Marlon Brando, Lena Horne and Henry Fonda to raise more than $100,000 to fund the Freedom Rides in 1964 that challenged racial segregation in interstate transportation. He also brought Tony Bennett, Paul Newman and Charlton Heston to the March on Washington where King delivered his famous “I Have a Dream” speech, which was a show of white support that helped make King’s address more universal in its appeal to people. Harry Belefonte was the first Black fill- in host for Johnny Carson on “The Tonight Show” and he used the platform to entertain but also would also discuss civil rights, the Vietnam War and the starvation in Appalachia with guests such as, MLK Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy. That same year he performed the anti-war song “ On the Path of Glory” with Petula Clark on an NBC special. Belefonte also raised huge amounts of money quickly to bail out civil rights leaders and protestors out of Southern jails. After the assignation of Martin Luther King Jr. he helped start TransAfrica which worked to press economic sanctions against South Africa’s apartheid regime and he lobbied for the release of Nelson Mandela. In 1987, he became the second American to be awarded the “goodwill ambassador “ for UNICEF. Harry Belefonte was a great talent as an entertainer but has left an amazing legacy in fighting against racial injustice and inequity here in America and across the world.

Dickey Betts has been sidelined due to a freak accident.
Betts, the "Ramblin' Man" singer-songwriter and founding Allman Brothers Band guitarist, went out to his backyard on Little Sarasota Bay and while chasing the family dog, slipped and cracked his head, causing bleeding from the brain.
Betts has been sedated at an undisclosed local hospital following the accident Monday evening at the Osprey home he shares with wife Donna.
David Spero, Betts' longtime friend and manager, said the beloved rock legend is "listed as in critical but stable condition" .
Surgery, to relieve swelling, has been scheduled for Friday.
Donna is by her husband's side with Dickey's children.
Last month, Betts suffered a "mild stroke" at his Sarasota home and had to cancel upcoming tour dates. A few weeks later, Spero announced Betts was responding "very well to treatment" and on Sept. 14 posted to Betts' social media pages that, "Dickey Betts is raring to go. His recovery from his minor stroke is ahead of schedule and he has already started playing his guitar again."
Now, though, Betts' family, friends and band mates are focusing their attention on Betts regaining his health; with the upcoming November shows obviously being cancelled.
"It was just a few days ago that Dickey was telling me how excited he was to get back in front of the fans on November 1," Spero said. "It is very unfortunate, for all involved, that we need to cancel those shows. Please add Dickey into your thoughts and prayers.

So, the Oscars didn’t disappoint those loony left liberals last night. Jimmy Kimmel hosted the 2017 Oscars. In his opening monologue, he got right to the point and got, well, . . . political.
Justin Timberlake opened with a great performance. The song of the summer is now the song of the Oscars. opening with a lively performance of his song “Can’t Stop the Feeling” from Trolls, the chart-topping single nominated for Best Original Song.
At the start of his monologue, Kimmel reminded us that the Oscars were streaming live “to over 225 countries that now hate us. I think that is an amazing thing“. Kimmel then continued to blab that he was urged to say something in his monologue about uniting the great division in our country. Of course, he was not going to unite and either was the one braveheart in the room, Mel Gibson, who is nominated again this year for his new film “Hacksaw Ridge”. He went on to add that he thought the Scientology was working for Mel, because he looked so great.
“There are millions of people watching right now . . . and if you all took a minute to reach out to one person you disagree with, someone you like, and have a positive, considerate conversation, not as liberals or conservatives, but as Americans. If you can all do that, maybe we can make America great again,” Kimmel said to a rousing applause. Wasn’t that Trump’s line?
But just as quickly he turns his attention to Matt Damon to “bury the hatchet” and reach out to him. “Matt did something very unselfish . . . ” Kimmel then continued to rib Matt Damon before making fun of the actor’s choice to pass up a starring role in “Manchester by the Sea” only to star in a “Chinese ponytail movie instead and that movie, The Great Wall, which went on to lose $80 million. Smooth move dumbass. See, it’s so easy to just reach out and heal.” That’s what I call burying the hatchet.
Kimmel then got chuckles from the audience proclaiming, “I want to thank President Trump tonight. I mean remember when last year it seemed like the Oscars were racist?” (loud applause)
Probably his most gifted articulation was his take that “black people saved NASA and white people saved Jazz. That’s what you call progress”.
Kimmel then teased French actress and nominee Isabelle Huppert. “We all have friends and colleagues from all over the world tonight. And on behalf of everyone here, we didn’t see ‘Elle,’ but we absolutely loved it, you were amazing in the that film and I’m glad Homeland Security let you in tonight, I really am.”
“We are welcoming to outsiders here in Hollywood. We don’t discriminate on people based on what country they are from, we discriminate against them based on their age and weight. Andrew Garfield lost 40 lbs. tonight for his role in the movie Silence.”
Kimmel then went on to finish his monologue,
“We are here tonight to honor great actors. But we are also here to honor the actors who seem great, but actually really aren’t. From all the “great actors” (quotes) here in Hollywood, one in particular has stood the test of time for her many uninspiring and over-rated performances.” (cut to Meryl Streep burying her head into her husband’s shoulder, while he has this smug, disgusting look on his face. All while in routy applause by the audience).
“May I say from her earlier mediocre work in the Deer Hunter and Out of Africa, to her underwhelming performances in Kramer vs. Kramer and Sofie’s Choice, Meryl Streep has phoned it in for more than 50 films over the course of her lack-luster career. This is Meryl’s 20th Oscar nomination . . . “
“Even more amazing considering the fact that she wasn’t even in a movie this year, we just wrote her name down out of habit.” He then asked Meryl to stand up for a standing ovation.
“Everybody, please join me in giving Meryl Streep a totally undeserved round of applause, will you. The highly over-rated Meryl Streep everyone. (Standing ovation) We’re gonna have fun tonight. I hope we’re gonna have fun tonight (Isn’t that a Wang Chung lyric?). Nice dress by the way , is that an Ivanka?” (More laughter)
“It’s important to take a moment and appreciate what is happening here. We are at the Oscars, the Academy Awards. You’re nominated. You got to come. Your families are nominated. Some of you will get to come up on the stage tonight and give a speech that the President of the United States will tweet about in all CAPS during his 5 am bowel movement tomorrow. And I think that is pretty darn excellent if you ask me.”
So let’s get to it . . . And this is where I turned off the Oscars and got some well deserved sleep . . .

THE GOSHEN NEWS
The Wichita Lineman is still on the line.
For fans of legendary country artist Glen Campbell, Wednesday night’s show at the Elkhart County 4-H Fair was one of the final chances to see Campbell in concert, as his Goodbye Tour enters its home stretch.
Campbell is dealing with the effects of Alzheimer’s disease.
But despite the daily struggles and slow decline that are hallmarks of the incurable disorder, Campbell didn’t disappoint a large crowd that showed up on a hot, muggy night to see him. Fair officials estimated the crowd at 3,700.
Wednesday night, Campbell showed flashes of the brilliant guitar work and showmanship that have been his hallmark for nearly five decades.
“I’ve never been to Goshen, Indiana,” Campbell told the cheering crowd as he took the stage. “It’s great to be here. It’s great to be anywhere.”
Offerings like “Gentle On My Mind,” “Wichita Lineman,” and “By The Time I Get to Phoenix” are true country gold, songs with stories many in the audience could relate to. They’re just a few of Campbell’s signature songs, and two of them made it into the first three songs of the set.
“Gentle On My Mind” opened the set, and Campbell interacted with the audience throughout the tune.
“Galveston,” with its now even more poignant line, “I am so afraid of dying,” was next, followed by perhaps Campbell’s most famous song — the one that’s considered by some to be his breakthrough song, “By The Time I Get to Phoenix.”
Campbell wryly changed the lyrics to “By The Time I Get To Goshen” at a few points during the song, further pleasing a crowd that was completely in his corner to start with.
For many in the audience, the concert was a bittersweet experience.
It was that way for Lona and Mike Long of Elkhart. Mike Long recently had double knee surgery, but that wasn’t going to keep him from the show.
His wife helped him get around the fairgrounds in a wheelchair. “I’m out here because it’s our last chance to see him,” Lona Long said. “That’s the only way you’re going to get me out here in this heat,” she added with a smile.
“I saw him once about 20 years ago at the Elkhart Theater,” Mike Long said as he waited for the reserved seating in the infield to open up. “He was one of the first big crossover country artists.”
Mike Long was especially looking forward to hearing “By The Time I Get to Phoenix.”
He didn’t have to wait long.
Chris and Dick Dorbershaw of Goshen had tickets to the show and invited their friends, the Laws.
Chris Dorbershaw was especially looking forward to hearing “Wichita Lineman.”
Victoria Ghost, a band including Campbell’s son, Shannon and daughter, Ashley, opened the show with a four-song set.


On My Radar...February 26, 2019: My Favorite Oscars Looks
Updated: Mar 26, 2019
What else could be on my fashion radar this week but the Oscars? To be completely honest, I don’t have cable, so I didn’t get to actually watch them. This is a personal finance blog, too, after all. Cable is such a waste.
Anyway, I’m lucky that every entertainment news outlet there is was bustling with Oscars coverage. After looking through all the pictures from the night, I’ve rounded up my top 5 favorite Oscars red carpet looks. Here they are, in no particular order:
First of all, her hair is gorgeous. The braids, the waves, the shine - perfection. I know I said these were in no particular order, but this was actually my number one favorite of the night. The way the delicate, shiny fringe drapes over the bodice of this Miu Miu dress is so eye-catchingly gorgeous. Also, did you know she’s only 20? I feel like I need to get my shit together.
Awkwafina slayed in this suit. It’s simple at all, but not too distracting either. I love the big ruffles by her neck and the allover glitter. Also, did you notice that her eyeshadow matches the outfit? The beauty blog Byrdie went behind the scenes with her as she was getting ready and documented how her look was created.
Her outfit wasn’t the only amazing thing. She also took a tequila shot out of her purse.
This Black Panther star played the leader of the king’s guards, but at the Oscars she looked like real royalty. The classic, elegant cut of this Brock Collection dress was complemented by the unusual texture of the material. Her gold hair accessories tied it all together, and the long braids were a nice change from her usual short ‘do.
Fisher, who is only 15 years old, evoked a powerful maturity in her menswear-inspired look. Her barrette and bag added just the right touches of femininity, and her square-toe heels topped off the angular outfit. It’s safe to say she is way more fashionable than I was at 15.
I’m a little partial to Brie Larson because she’s going to be Captain Marvel, and I’m a huge Marvel fan. But you really can’t deny how awesome this chain-mail dress from Celine is. The bold silver combined with her icy blonde hair created a cool vibe, and her simple makeup let the dress take center stage.
On My Radar... posts let you explore the media that’s on my mind. I post fashion Radar posts on Tuesdays and finance Radar posts on Thursdays.


Gospel performer Kirk Franklin apologizes after his son releases obscene audio
(RNS) – Gospel entertainer Kirk Franklin apologized online after one of his sons posted a recording of an obscene and physically threatening argument he claimed was with Franklin.
“We have had a toxic relationship with him as a family for many years,” Franklin said of his eldest son, Kerrion Franklin, 32. “We have tried for many years through counseling and therapy to correct this private family matter.”
Elderly Franklin, 51, spoke in a 59-second video posted on his Twitter account on Saturday (March 13), saying the two had argued over what his son recorded.
“I felt extremely disrespectful and lost my temper during this conversation. I said words that are inappropriate and I am sincerely sorry for everyone,” he said. “I sincerely apologize. I want you as a father to know that during this conversation I called the family therapist and called that therapist on the phone to try to help. He never played that part of the recording. “

In the 45-second audio recording on @kerrionrashad’s Instagram account, two voices can be heard arguing and yelling at each other. Although there is no indication of who is speaking in the audio, the post caption claims that the audio is on “My Father”.
The older voice can be heard in the audio, talking about not wanting to be disregarded and saying he would “break your neck” or “stick my foot in it, you are a …” if he is.
At the end of the recording the younger voice says: “He just hung up. “I’ll break your neck.” Is that a threat? “
Accompanying the recording, the @kerrionrashad contribution partly reads: “That’s why I’m done. No father should speak to his children like that. If I have any problems, it’s because of this type of treatment that I do behind closed doors. “
The @kerrionrashad post added, “I don’t think I’ll ever trust my father to be alone with him again. I didn’t mean to do that. I probably won’t be releasing the entire recording because it’s too embarrassing to even bother with. No matter what people think, I pray my dad deals with his deep hatred of me. I don’t feel safe at all around him. “
The elderly Franklin ended his Twitter video response by asking viewers to pray for his family.
“I’m not perfect,” he said. “I’m human and I’ll make mistakes and I’ll try to get it right.”
Franklin, unable to play gospel music in public performances for months due to the pandemic, recently appeared on NPR’s Tiny Desk concert series and sang with members of his choir and band towards the end of Black History Month.
In an interview with the Religion News Service in August, Franklin responded when asked how he is dealing with the fact that he cannot perform as a gospel artist during the COVID-19 pandemic: “I started therapy again and it was very, very much good for me . I am a black man going to therapy. I talk, I pray and they are synonymous. It was really, really good to have someone who can help you when you are helping other people. “
In September he appeared on “They Call Me Dad” on the Oprah Winfrey Network. In the special, which included Bishop TD Jakes, Franklin happily discussed his youngest son, Caziah, 20, who was going back to college.
“As a black father, it is very important to me that my children get the baton,” he said in a clip of the show on the OWN website, “and that they understand how expensive it is to make sure that you don’t dress Do not drop it. “

Review of "Turn Me Loose"
The early career of comedian and social activist Dick Gregory is searingly portrayed in the new play, Turn Me Loose, by actor Joe Morton. Better known for his roles in blockbuster movies and television programs, he perfectly embodies the performer, creating a riveting, funny and heartfelt performance.
Playwright Gretchen Law traces Gregory’s rise through nightclubs and onto the national spotlight, where his blistering comedy routines centering on racism, inequality and life as a Black man resonated with audiences of all colors. The performer was also deeply involved in the civil rights struggles as a fervid supporter, fundraiser and confidante to movement leaders. The dynamics and tension between being a successful entertainer and committed social activist are vividly displayed in the production. Law sets the play, primarily in the 1960’s, but jumps back and forth in time to show pivotal moments in Gregory’s life.
Morton, a theater veteran before the lure of Hollywood limited his New York stage appearances, gives a tour de force performance as the legendary entertainer. He infuses Gregory with a burning desire to succeed as a Black comic with a conscious. He is adept at telling a joke or relating a humorous story. Morton also exhibits the pain and emotional toll of the performer as well as his compassion and commitment to his art and activism. Actor John Carlin materializes throughout the production in a number of different roles, giving Morton someone to play off of amid the good times and bad during his long and distinguished career.
Director John Gould Rubin has the luxury of staging the show in a small performance space, which furnishes audience members the up close feel of a nightclub. He keeps Morton, for the most part, at the edge of the stage, establishing an intimate and personal setting. Rubin also skillfully and effortlessly moves the play from comic performances to scenes of dramatic tirades to heartbreaking angst.
Turn Me Loose, a powerful, thought-provoking production with a star turn by Joe Morton.

Who is Barbra Streisand?
Streisand’s distinctive appearance, her personality and her skill have been a fascination and an inspiration for me for over 45 years. This article describes the most important stations of an evenly unusual and glamorous career and may succeed in explaining my respect for her, but also the joy that this actress has brought into my life.
“Talent is Beauty” or: Who is Barbra Streisand?
Summer, 1960, New York: Barbara is eighteen. She is standing on the stage of a small club called “The Lion” and starts to sing faint-heartedly. And when her voice starts to gather power and ferventness, slowly the gateways to the world of success, wealth and appreciation open for her.
Barbra Streisand 2004: Her charismatic singing, flawless from the faintest nuances to the glorious augmentation, lends individual beauty to melody and words of each song. After 40 years of constant usage, voice and singing of Streisand are still unique. Especially in the last ten years through the preference of the great Broadway ballads she cultivated Belcanto singing more than ever before. And one will find it difficult to surpass the words of Stephen Sondheim with which he reasoned the handing over of the “Grammy Legend Award” to Barbra Streisand: “She is the joy of every composer whose dream it is that his song is performed better in reality than it is performed in his own fantasy.” In this way, the name Barbra Streisand manifested itself in the entertainment industry over the years as a synonym for vocal arts.
It is apparent that she was rewarded well for her long presence in showbiz and movies. A stunning list of awards and tributes lends her career the air of an exclusive awards show. In addition, there are her fans who are at her feet. With devotion, you could almost say with resignedness, she is loved and adored by millions of fans from all over the world. Maybe, part of the explanation is that Streisand up to this day continues to produce such great artistic results which were not quite to be expected in spite of the exuberant praise she received during her starting years. What is more, and this is crucial, through her fascinating artist personality she has been satisfying a so-called aspiration of identification on part of her fans for many years. The person Streisand is very close to the fan, because what goes beyond mere recognition is the elementary importance of the own emotional world of the fan in relation to the beloved star. That’s why not journalists, but the fans help to elevate their favourite performers to the ranks of Movie Goddesses, myths and legends. Examples are Greta Garbo, Marlene Dietrich, Judy Garland, Sinatra, Elvis or Barbra Streisand, too.
Her achievements as a singer and actress, her work as a director, producer, composer and screenwriter made her one of the most constant and artistically most diverse icons of the entertainment industry. Barbara Joan Streisand was born on April 24th, 1942 in Brooklyn. As she said herself, she was confident in becoming a star once since her early childhood years. Primarily, though, she thinks of the personification of dramatic woman characters on the stage and in the movies. The great actress Sarah Bernard in her tragic roles is her exemplar. The circumstance that she has a very good singing voice appears to be rather normal to her and is given no special attention. As early as 1957 she was acting tiny roles in stage plays that often didn’t lift the curtains for a second time after the first night.
She learns of a singing contest and at the young age of eighteen she performs at the New York gay club “The Lion” on the evening of 6th June, 1960. Her memorable looks is very individualistic, just to avoid saying “flashy”, nonetheless entirely “natural”. “A Sleepin’ Bee”, the song she performs is unusual as well. It was composed by Harold Arlen who had already immortalised Judy Garland with the classic “Over The Rainbow”. Arlen is to become one of Streisand’s favourite composers. On the back cover of Streisand’s first solo album (1963) he envisions a “smashing” future for Barbra with enthusiastic words. The text of “A Sleepin’ Bee” stems from the gay enfant terrible Truman Capote who some time later commented somewhat impressed on Barbra: She is one of the true phenomena of our time”
Eighteen year old Barbra stands on the small stage right next to the pianist with a strange mixture of defiant self-confidence and fear. Intuitively, she notices the scepticism or even the derisive rejection on part of the lurking guests. She does not contemplate about it. She knows she just got to sing this song. And she knows that all she got to do is open her mouth and the voice will take control over her. And she knows something else: There is only she, she alone, just HERSELF. And when she is in the middle of the song, when she whispers and cries this overwhelming youthful longing into the room she senses a feeling of power. The audience in the shaded room has gotten silent. The people are listening to HER. She senses this indefinite pact of identification, which she can control by the power of her performance. Barbra does not have a message for the people yet, but she has almost everyone in the room filled with that almost personified longing, with that appetite for everything and thereby she has compelled the audience to total attention.
When Barbra finishes her song the audience of the “Lion” is electrified. The audience grasps that it has just attended a “moment of truth”. Barbra had performed her song so brilliantly and lived so intensely through the story of the song that the whole performance had become an astonishing mini-drama. In these few minutes she laid the foundation stone of what she pushed as “her trademark” undeviating, masterfully and also obtrusively-ambitious later on. Obtrusively, because she repeats it constantly, albeit with intelligent variation. For she has impressed generations with it to this day: Concentrated intensity, great vocal range, authentic performance and energy, by all means a bit of emotional kitsch and, thankfully, last but not least a big portion of self-reflexive ironical humour.
On this evening, she wins the first price – which was in a retrospective very symptomatic for her talent: For she won the “Grammy” for her first album, the “Emmy” for her first TV-special, the “Oscar” for her first film appearance and the “Golden Globe” for her debut as a director (Yentl).
Barbra Streisand reached the highest heights of the entertainment genre in a stunning speed. She is the “new sensation”. In 1962, she signs a record deal with “Columbia”, America’s most important label, by which her records are released till this day. The record deal with Columbia is spectacular: The 20 year old newcomer claims all rights and artistic decisions for the recordings for herself and even gets them! After three solo albums she starts to play the role of the legendary US comedian Fanny Brice in the Broadway musical “Funny Girl” in 1964. The role became her second identity and all reviews were overwhelming. The “New York Times” writes: “While other stars only illuminate their time Streisand sets alight the whole theatrical world”. Her portrait appears on the covers of world-famous magazines like “Time”, “Newsweek”, “Life” or “Vogue”. The Streisand-look with exorbitant eye make-up gets known as “proto Cleopatrá”. Thousands of young US women copy that style.
Streisand’s success becomes world-wide when in 1968 the film realisation of “Funny Girl” comes to the movies. Despite some sensational scenes (for example “Don’t rain on my parade”), the movie was just a bit above average. Antiquated-imitated staging of popular Cinderella stories were numerous at the Broadway or in the movies. But not in THIS form: Barbra’s performance was congenial and made the film itself secondary. How she represented “Fanny Brice”, how she furiously performed the songs of Jule Styne were her unmistakable Streisand attributes henceforth! It became clear in the movie “Funny Girl” that her vaunted stage presence would become even greater on the screen. And it was only now through the close-ups of the “unerring eye of the camera” that the glaring intensity of the Streisand-face became obvious. Now everyone had an idea of who Barbra Streisand was. A sudden encounter with an almost hypnotic indigenous authenticity. It was the hour of birth of the Streisand-fans!
Obviously, her first movie role is a stroke of luck. She is able to pull out all the stops of her talent: Dramatic art, comedy, intensity and the magic of her voice of course. Streisand, the “movie star”, who always brings up her unconventional appearance herself and whose big nose and squint and other shortcomings are all to avidly picked up by the press, received a splendid review by Pauline Kael. The most renown of all US-movie critics wrote on the new “movie star” Streisand:
“In “Funny Girl” we can grasp the message through Barbra Streisand that talent is beauty.”
A wonderful and all encompassing sentence about Streisand’s talent and charisma. This first decade of Streisand’s career is stamped by restless energy. She takes the almost improper hymns of praise as committing. Where there is so much praise, there is also grudge and gradually also massive criticism that purports that EVERYTHING done by Streisand would end in an “egotrip”. This was the ungracious and oversimplified catchword which should henceforth accompany her whole career. Streisand about reviews: “Of all reviews I only remember the bad ones…” It does not wonder that she developed slightly neurotic behaviour patterns and engaged in psychology and psychotherapy henceforth. Barbra should have listened to Marlene Dietrich who said about the matter: “If you want to stay a normal person, just don’t read any reviews!”
But Barbra Streisand with all her talents neither was nor is a “normal” person. She feels the urge to prove herself and engages in work like a maniac. That’s why she produced 23 LPs, 40 singles, 4 TV specials and 6 feature films in the first ten years of her career – and much of that stays first rate to this day. In addition, there are countless live performances in concerts and TV. Approximately 60000 people were expected to attend the free Streisand concert “A Happening in Central Park”. Instead 135000 people came! This, too, helps to make clear the magnitude of her popularity and esteem.
In the early seventies, when she was an integral part of the “establishment” like Sinatra and other comparable entertainers already, she displays another, more modern musical part of herself. On several pop albums she performs songs of contemporary songwriters and musicians like Bowie, Lennon, Laura Nyro, Carol King, Joni Mitchell, Paul Simon, Stevie Wonder, Billy Joel, The Beatles and The Bee Gees. “Stoney End” is Barbra’s first rock single (1970) and greatest success chart-wise since “People” (1964). Barbra is also among the first to test the concept of pop duets, which proves to be very successful. By means of duet singles with Donna Summer, Neil Diamond or The Bee Gees her popularity rises markedly.
Glenn Gould writes in his thorough review of the album: “I am a freak for Streisand and don’t make a secret of it. With the exception of Elisabeth Schwarzkopf no songstress has delighted me more or given me more insight into the art of interpretation.”
Streisand’s most important milestone of her career to this day has been the movie “Yentl”. Her most energetic project and the one with most personal commitment was presented in America in the winter of 1983. After all movie companies had rejected the cinematic realisation of Isaac B. Singers’ unusual story Barbra overcame all fears and directed herself for the first time, wrote the script together with Jack Rosenthal, produced the film, played the leading part and sang all of the film songs. The avid aspiration to realise Yentl wasn’t an egocentric show of strength of Barbra, but the realisation of a long fostered and deep desire of the heart. She dedicated the movie with love and memento to her father. He died when she was only fifteen months old and Barbra, who still frequently talks about that in interviews, can hardly accept the loss till this day.
In 1996, she made her sixteenth movie and for the time being her last one, but with the two movies “Funny Girl” and “Yentl” Barbra reached the greatest identification and homogeneity of all her appearances in movies. “Yentl” wouldn’t end in a disaster like movie moguls had thought, but instead became an artistic as well as a commercial success. Although “Yentl” earned only one music Oscar for “Best Film Score” and missed the other important categories, the movie won two Golden Globes: One for “Best Director” and the other one for “Best Motion Picture” (Comedy or Musical). Greatest respect is due to Michel LeGrand and the authors Alan and Marilyn Bergman for their splendid score. Every song is conceived as an “inner monologue” of Yentl and accompanies in a very empathetic way, text, harmony and mood of the respective scenes of the movie.
Barbra interprets these romantic, completely “un-American” melodies with all possibilities of her artistic expression and enchants the viewers through their own unconfined empathy. The most popular song of the movie “Papa, Can You Hear Me” became not only a popular Streisand song, but developed to be a classic with the years that was added to the repertoires of interprets as diverse as Jessey Norman and Nina Simone as well as many others. For Barbra herself the “Yentl-recordings” became a special highlight within her musical work just like her Broadway album from 1985.
In September 1986, she reappeared on stage for a single evening after a long hiatus. But she gave this special tribute concert “One Voice” not on a public stage, but in her private park of her estate in Malibu. She invited many VIPs from film, culture and politics and the invitation was transmitted by an audio cassette on which she spoke herself. The admission was $5000 per couple. On April 26th, the nuclear catastrophe had happened in Tschernobyl and Streisand decided to give the concert in order to raise her voice publicly. In this first live performance after many years, she sang her most popular songs, but furthermore she repeatedly addressed the audience with private assessments on environment, racism and wars. These political statements made it clear that Barbra is against nuclear power plants engulfing the whole world, armaments industry and nuclear missiles.
This evening yielded 1,5 million dollars. In this very moment, the Barbra Streisand foundation was born. Since that day the foundation has been donating millions of dollars to welfare organisations, environmental concerns, antinuclear activities, human rights, cancer and aids research. This foundation does not advertise Barbra Streisand. Barbra works continuously in the background rather. Yet, on elections Streisand repeatedly and unmistakably does “advertising” with songs and words for her stance as a liberal American who will always support the Democratic Party of the USA
One year after that, Barbra plays the role of the call-girl Claudia Draper in Martin Ritt’s court drama “Nuts”. With unkempt hair and wearing a prison smock for the most part of the movie, she especially shines in the last scenes of the film. In a desperate final speech she practically adopts her own defence. This performance is the most dramatic one that Barbra had ever shown on screen. In her best moments you feel reminiscent of the intensity of the legendary italian actress Anna Magnani. As a bold fighter for her rights she even impressed the famous German feminist Alice Schwarzer so much that Schwarzer had a scenic photo of Streisand as cover of “Emma” magazine and did a review of the film on several pages.
The nineties were once more a very active decade of Streisand’s work. In 1991, she releases a work exhibition on three decades of her musical career on four sound storage mediums. Along with that comes a booklet of 96 pages in large format that naturally is like a banquet for her fans. She directed two movies in which he also starred. Her production company „Barwood“ realised more ambitious projects for TV than Streisand movies for cinemas and gained numerous awards. Barbra made two concert tours which were instantly sold out despite the highest ticket prices that were paid for a single artist ever. Two out of numerous new CDs reach the top of the billboard charts instantly. Barbra Streisand is soon to be in her late fifties, a so-called veteran performer, but still each album (there are 60 now!) attains “gold” or “platinum” status.
In the nineties, she becomes more active in politics and she repeatedly performs on electoral events of the Democrats. In 1992, she is awarded the “Commitment to Life Award” by the “AIDS Project Los Angeles”. In 1995, she gives a well attended speech on the topic “The artist as a citizen” at Harvard University. In the same year, she received her “doctor honoris causa”.
In 1998, she marries fellow actor James Brolin and bids farewell to live performances with her last and enthusiastically received “Timeless” concerts. She reports having spent so much time of her life with her career that now the time would have come to realise other aspects of life and to spend some time with her family instead.
Barbra Streisand did not do another movie after her last one in 1996 “The Mirror Has Two Faces”. I think that after forty years of this incomparable career the sixty-two years old artist would even have deserved doing nothing at all anymore. Naturally, the fans are longing for a new movie or her autobiography. She released many CDs in recent years and she will certainly continue with that for some years to come. And some critics will undoubtedly continue trying to stigmatise Streisand’s Belcanto singing as kitsch. Barbra’s deep sentiment in her expression, her measured melodious sound with which she almost moulds the notes, or the orgiastic dramatising so typical of Streisand seem to be too antique or obsolete for many critics today. One could go on without mentioning these one-sided, oversimplified assessments, but I deem it important to make mention especially of these ones.
Because contrary to that it is interesting, important and enjoyable that Barbra Streisand gets greatest laud from the musical specialists themselves. Musicians like Glenn Gould or Leonard Bernstein, interprets like Ella Fitzgerald, Tony Bennett, Whitney Houston and many other vocalists repeatedly mentioned their greatest appreciation for Streisand’s incomparable artistic skills. In this respect it should be possible and helpful to quote some comments from other great vocalists: Ray Charles, who worked with her in 1973, remarked: “Barbra Streisand is fantastic. I heard her sing things behind the stage – funky, nasty, swinging things – which she never would have recorded on LP. I wish she would.” Years later he emphasized again: “She is the greatest white songstress! She doesn’t sing mere notes. She SINGS emotions.”
Another jazz legend, Carmen MacRae on Streisand: “One of the most fantastic singers to come along in years. I like this kind of singer because she’s trying to tell you something. If you don't get the message, you're a complete idiot. And she has musicianly quality and sings ‘IN TUNE’: pure, well adjusted – in harmony. Let us not forget to include that!” The most amusing praise of Barbra Streisand does not originate from a vocalist. Bette Davis said in 1966 after a live performance of Streisand: „I have fallen in love with Miss Barbra Streisand. I just sat there with my mouth open!“
Awards and successes in the charts aside, Streisand matches all important criteria of an excellent artistic personality: Self-reliance, quality, creativity and steadiness for over forty years. This way small Barbra from Brooklyn became a permanent American event. She became BARBRA, “The Living Legend”.
And in another fashion than Madonna, only due to the ongoing quality of her work, she is a megastar of many generations to date. If you look at Barbra Streisand’s oeuvre you can even justify: She is among the most fortunate musical discoveries of the last sixty years. A phenomenon like “Streisand” will hardly happen again.
In fall 2003, Barbra Streisand released an album with movie melodies which had been announced long since by her. “The Movie Album” attained platinum status in the USA, but sparked controversies within her fan community and evidently became the most polarising album of her career.
In 2004, Barbra surprisingly returned to screen. Alongside such top-class fellow actors like Dustin Hoffman and Robert De Niro she comes to unfold her comedian talent in an effusive manner. Dustin Hoffman and Barbra pulled out all the stops as old hippie couple “Focker”. The movie “Meet the Fockers” became one of the most successful movie comedies ever and was a number one box office hit world-wide.

Yuna looked exhausted and very beat coming back home, and one can assume the blame falls on her nonstop schedule the past few months. Between traveling around the world with her bid team, she also had to film a TV series, and no doubt this took a toll.
So it’s only logical that for this outfit she went for comfort.
The centerpiece of this outfit was the shoes. Two-toned flats, beige with a black patent cap worked to extend her leg line. A blessed break from the heels she’s been wearing.
The brand of Yuna’s black clutch has been confirmed.
The chain links appear to be of a different shape, and the finish of Yuna’s bag seems to be darker and onyx-like. It’s possible that this was custom made as well to compliment Yuna’s suit—a mix of different lusters of black.
More Yuna fashions tomorrow!
Congratulations to Pyeongchang for winning the 2018 Winter Olympic bid! No doubt, a huge amount of this victory was due to Yuna’s relentless and busy campaign schedule.
She finished off the long and successful bidding process in unusual but beautiful style. Instead of opting for the classic women’s pants and blazer or skirt formal wear, she went for a one-piece suit with a cape.
The suit is by KUHO Chung, the executive of Jaeil Textiles, and took over 2 months to create.
Yu-Na Kim has become a South Korean and winter sports icon in these past few years.
Her success in figure skating, including an Olympic gold medal, at such an early age and her poise and respectful nature have lead her to be the most beloved celebrity in her home country.
Winning the most prestigious competitions in her sport, remaining extremely humble, and donating thousands of dollars to charity has made her truly, a role model.
With so much attention, Yu-Na is also known for being one of the best-dressed celebs in not only Korea but throughout Asia. Reflecting her busy and varied schedule of traveling around the world, skating, and hitting the red carpet, her style ranges from an elegant designer cocktail dress to loose everyday t-shirts from QUA.
Let’s see what Yu-Na will wear next!

Lash La Rue Could Really Crack A Whip
The Good Guy Cowboy Hero That Always Wore Black
Alfred “Lash” La Rue (June 15, 1917–May 21, 1996) was a popular western motion picture star of the 1940’s and 1950’s.
Lash La Rue comic books sold over one million copies around the world.
LaRue, who adopted the nickname Lash after he picked up his whip, was originally named Albert. He was born in Gretna, La., and, after attending the College of the Pacific, he worked as a real estate salesman and later acted on the stage. A colorful storyteller, he liked to say that he had done a screen test for Warner Brothers but had been turned down because he looked too much like Humphrey Bogart, one of the studio’s biggest stars.
Whatever the facts, for several years he struggled playing bit parts. His big break came with the 1945 film “Song of Old Wyoming,” in which he played the Cheyenne Kid, a hero who violated Hollywood convention by wearing black and riding a black horse, named Rush. He made an instant impression by picking a flower for his paramour with a flick of his bullwhip.
“The usual cowboy hero won because goodness prevails,” said Dennis Rogers, a columnist at The News and Observer in Raleigh, N.C., who knew Mr. LaRue and wrote about him. “Lash won because he was just tougher than anybody else. He did it by being badder than the bad guys.”
The film spawned a series of bullwhip westerns, including “Law of the Lash,” “The Caravan Trail,” “Border Feud” and “Mark of the Lash.” All were low-budget shoot-’em-ups with Mr. LaRue appearing as the Cheyenne Kid or as Lash LaRue. Connoisseurs of the genre hold “King of the Bullwhip” (1951) in particularly high regard.
When television killed the B western, Lash LaRue survived by playing character roles. His last film, made in 1961, was “Please Don’t Touch Me.” From 1952 to 1953 he was the host of “Lash of the West,” a showcase of his westerns. In 1959, he played Johnny Behan, the corrupt sheriff on the television show “The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp.”
When his acting career ran out, he took his bullwhip on the road, traveling with circuses, carnivals and Wild West shows. He soon fell on hard times. In 1966 he was arrested in Miami for vagrancy, with only 35 cents in his pocket. Later he became an evangelist working with alcoholics in St. Petersburg, Fla.
In 1980, he experienced a resurgence, as nostalgia film clubs found that they could afford to hire LaRue to appear at their film festivals. In 1986 he appeared in the television remake of “Stagecoach.”
He was the classic cowboy, a man who still wore boots and bolo ties. When his trademark black shirt showed signs of fading, Lash LaRue would discard it for a new one.
After decades of popularity, interest in westerns faded and he was forced to make a living from appearances at fairs and conventions for western film buffs.
Problems with the Internal Revenue Service and alcohol made it difficult for him to work in later years.
He had exceptional skill with the bullwhip and taught Harrison Ford how to use a bullwhip in the Indiana Jones movies.

The final Oprah Winfrey television show airs tomorrow. Based on the massive outpouring of comments and emotion leading up to this final show, you’d think the world was ending! How did Oprah create such a huge base of raving fans?
Let’s take a look at Oprah’s journey to mega fame and fortune. There are some great marketing lessons that entrepreneurs and small business owners can learn from Lady O!
Oprah’s Decision that Changed Everything
It happened in the mid 1990’s. Oprah decided it was time to listen to her heart and embrace her true self. As part of the process, she changed the theme of her Oprah Winfrey show from tabloid talk and gossip to edu-tainment . The world as we knew it would never be the same again! Soon we would all experience “Oprahfication”, a term coined by the Wall Street Journal to describe her unique style and impact.
Oprah’s Quick Rise to Success and Fame
Oprah had achieved an amazing amount of success prior to this change. Early in her career, she was both the youngest news anchor, and the first black female news anchor at WLAC-TV, a Nashville TN station. In 1983, she relocated to Chicago to host WLS-TV’s half-hour morning talk show, called AM Chicago.
Within months after taking it over, the show went from last place in ratings to overtaking Donahue as the highest rated talk show in Chicago. Phil Donahue at the time was the King of Daytime Talk Shows, and it was inconceivable that a Black Woman named Oprah would be the one to topple Donahue. After that her show was renamed The Oprah Winfrey Show, went from 30 minutes to an hour and was nationally syndicated!
10 years later Oprah found herself emotionally unfulfilled and exhausted. In fact, she was not sure she could continue doing her TV show any longer in the same format.
Oprah’s Move to Education Based Marketing
That’s when Destiny struck. Oprah decided to produce shows that were connected to her authentic voice. Having long felt a sense of personal disengagement from the tabloid style shows she was doing, she focused on producing shows that educated viewers and helped them to “Live Your Best Life”!
From that moment to her last show on May 25, 2011, Oprah transformed from daytime talk show host to one of the worlds most powerful women! She has been named the world’s most influential woman by Time and CNN and, one of 100 people who influenced the 20th Century by American Spectator, to name just a few of her many accolades. In 2007, she was #1 on Forbes Top 20 Richest Women in Entertainment list and was # 130 on the 2010 Forbes List of Wealthiest Americans.
Mind Blowing…what an amazing journey and accomplishments!
7 Keys to Small Business Marketing Success from Oprah!
So, what can you learn from Oprah and apply to market and growing your small business? Following are 7 keys that were critical to her success.
1) Embrace Your Authentic Voice
Oprah attracts fans and fortune effortlessly because she is not trying to be something or someone else. In a recent interview with Barbra Walters, she talked about “knowing” that she was put here on this earth to inspire people, to encourage people to do better and to do more. When she connected that to her TV show back in the mid 1990’s, everything changed in a very powerful and positive way.
2) Congruent Marketing
Everything that Oprah does is “congruent” with her big message of “Live Your Best Life”. Every action in all of her businesses…O Magazine, Oprah Radio and now her OWN television network all match up to her “Live Your Best Life” message. This has built an amazing amount of trust and raving fans.
3) Education-Based Marketing
Oprah created education based shows…shows that lifted people up and taught them how to “live their best life” be it a great hair-do, losing weight or learning how someone else achieved success. She mixed in a little fun, and the rest is history or herstory!
4) Recycle Content to Increase Your Reach
Oprah expanded her empire and reach by recycling her TV show content into other media formats. Oprah.com, Oprah Radio, Oprah O Magazine are all extensions of her TV show and feature similar content and key contributors to The Oprah Television show.
5) Meet Your Prospects and Fans on Their Terms
The extension into other media besides television, created outposts…or ways to connect with an even larger audience and… meet them on their terms. Now everywhere you go you see Oprah!
6) Practice Gratitude
Oprah lives in a state of gratitude and expresses it as a standard part, of how she does business. She has shared her platform with many people who have gone on to enjoy great financial reward as a result. Some have achieved mega fame and fortune like Dr. Phil, Dr. Oz and Rachel Ray. Hundreds of others like book of the month authors, products mentioned on her show or O magazine, guest appearances on the Oprah Show, charities; are all examples of how Oprah expresses her gratitude.
Whether you’re a fan or not, you can’t deny the power of her amazing story. She is truly an inspiration! As celebrity after celebrity and fan after fan have gushed about how much Oprah has meant to them, we can experience the power of her story and journey. And in that moment get a sense, of how we too can take our business to the next level by embracing some of what Oprah has taught us as we have witnessed her metoric rise.
The beginning of this post mentioned 7 keys to Oprah’s success, and we’ve only covered 7. The 7th and final key is so powerful that it needs its very own blog post. Stay tuned until tomorrow and find out what it is!
Till then what do you think has been key to Oprah’s success?

Rapper Future’s new song, “Karate Chop (Remix)”, has received a lot of negative attention because of a lyric from Lil Wayne. In the song, Lil Wayne says that he’s going to “pop a pill” and “beat that p***y up like Emmett Till.” Emmett Till is the 15 year-old that was beaten to death in 1955. His mother chose to have an open casket funeral for her son, who was unrecognizable after the beating. This is one of many events that sparked the Civil Rights movement. JET Magazine even featured a photo of Till in his casket on the cover.
Lil Wayne apparently thought nothing was wrong with the metaphor. Many people have spoken out against the song. Rev. Jesse Jackson, Sr. and Stevie Wonder both expressed concern. “You can’t equate that to Emmett Till,” Wonder states to the Associated Press. “You just cannot do that… I think you got to have someone around you, even if they are the same age or older, to say, ‘Yo, that’s not happening,’”
Epic Records, Future’s label, released a statement apologizing for the incident. “We regret the unauthorized remix version of Future’s ‘Karate Chop’, which was leaked online and contained hurtful lyrics. Out of respect for the legacy of Emmett till and his family and the support of the Reverend Jesse L. Jackson, Sr… we are going through great efforts to take down the unauthorized version.”
Lil Wayne has yet to officially comment on the incident.
I know we love our entertainers for their openness and honesty, but they must have a filter. There are just somethings you can’t say. I hope other artists will learn from his situation. Some things are too important to become fodder in your song.
