Download and read online Princess Diana in PDF and EPUB The book that the British government tried to ban! British investigative journalists Jon King and John Beveridge have maintained from the outset that they were informed of a plot to assassinate Princess Diana one week before her death. Three years ago, Royal Butler Paul Burrell's revelations confirmed their claim. In an astonishing letter written ten months before her death, Princess Diana confirmed that a plot to assassinate her in a 'road traffic accident' was indeed planned and carried out by order of the British Royal Establishment. The letter, owned by Burrell and written by Diana in October 1996, reads: "This particular phase in my life is the most dangerous. My husband is planning an accident in my car, brake failure and serious head injury, in order to make the path clear for him to marry". Ten months later, on 23 August 1997, one week before her death, the authors were informed of this same plot to kill Diana. The EVIDENCE they uncovered during their subsequent investigation is truly disturbing. . .

Download and read online Princess Diana the Lamb to the Slaughter in PDF and EPUB Born to privilege, living on the edge of the royal circle, Lady Diana Spencer assumed-like everyone else-that little adjustment would be needed to adapt to her new role, the Princess of Wales and future Queen of England. What everyone, including Diana, failed to factor in was that Charles, at age thirty-three, was not only a confirmed bachelor, surrounded from infancy with people to anticipate and provide his every need, he was also in a long-term, committed relationship. However, it was his duty to marry and provide an heir to the throne of England. Meanwhile, Diana, almost a generation younger, envisioned (as Edward VIII had) what a modern monarchy could be; how it could be relevant in today's complex society-a monarchy she was determined to have for her son. That these two forces-the status quo and the Modern England-should clash was inevitable, but no one was prepared for the cataclysmic climax in the story of the Queen England never had-Diana, Princess of Wales, the Lamb to the Slaughter.

However heartbroken about the accident that took the life of the People’s Princess, many people were sceptical about the government’s official statements. After in-depth research of the circumstances of that fateful night, investigative writer and former journalist Noel Botham finally reveals what he alleges to be the truth – Princess Diana fell victim to a ruthlessly executed assassination. Twenty years later, the tragedy still shapes Britain as we know it today. How could the Establishment betray the trust of a whole nation? How was the killing executed? Was there really another car in the tunnel at the time of the crash? Reporting from the innermost sanctums of British intelligence and royalty, Botham reveals shocking answers to what he claims is one of the UK’s most successfully kept secrets. As Botham affirms, The Murder of Princess Diana firmly lays to rest the theory that Diana’s death was a mere accident, and finally gives the people of Britain the explanation they deserve.

R.L. Boyce is one of the longest active performers in the traditional music of the North Mississippi Hill Country. For three decades, he played bass and snare drums in the Como-based fife and drum group led by fife player and vocalist Otha Turner (1907-2003). Since the early 2000s, he has received international attention for his work as a guitar player and vocalist. In 2017, Boyce was nominated for a Grammy award for his album Roll and Tumble (Waxploitation), and in 2023 he received the prestigious National Heritage Fellowship award from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA).
Boyce was born in Como, Panola County, on August 15, 1955, and says that R.L. simply stands for “R.L.” He was the 6th of 13 children of his parents, Charles and Annie Mae, and grew up picking cotton. He was the only one in the household who took to actively playing music, but his parents hosted house parties that ran well into the night. Local musicians who performed at his home included Como-based vocalist and guitarist Mississippi Fred McDowell (1904-1972), who achieved international fame during the 1960s blues revival.
In the documentary about McDowell, Shake ‘em On Down, Boyce said that musicians would play all weekend. McDowell, he recalls, would arrive at the house in Otha Turner’s mule-driven wagon.
“You could hear the guitar two miles down the road, all the way to the next county. That mule—bop, bop, bop, bop [imitates the rhythm of its hooves]. Fred sitting in the wagon; guitar was getting down.”
In 1970, when Boyce was 15, he began playing drums with Turner’s group, initially performing at one of the many fife and drum picnics held in the field behind L.P. Buford’s store in the country east of Como. Boyce also played in a group led by Napolian Strickland on fife that also featured Otha Turner on drums. This band was recorded in 1970 by ethnomusicologist David Evans, and songs featuring Boyce were issued on the LPs Traveling Through the Jungle: Negro Fife and Drum Band Music (Testament 1974) and Afro-American Folk Music from Tate and Panola Counties, Mississippi (Library of Congress 1978).
Boyce continued playing with Strickland and Turner locally at picnics and in the occasional festival, and in the 1980s, he began playing a drum kit for legendary guitarist/vocalist Jessie Mae Hemphill, who had previously played drums in local fife and drum bands. They performed together at events including the Delta Blues and Heritage Festival in Greenville, and in 1991, they were featured at the Smithsonian Folklife Festival along with Turner, Strickland, and drummers Bernice Evans (Turner’s daughter), Abe Young, and E.P. Burton.
Boyce played on Hemphill’s album Feelin’ Good (Highwater 1990) and later appeared on recordings featuring Otha Turner—notably the albums Everybody Hollerin’ Goat (Birdman 1997) and From Senegal to Senatobia [by Otha Turner & the Afrossippi Allstars] (Birdman 2000), as well as with the artists Twenty Miles and Corey Harris.
Boyce began playing guitar around age 25 (circa 1980), and credits as his inspirations McDowell, R.L. Burnside, with whom Boyce sometimes played drums at Junior Kimbrough’s juke joint in Chulahoma, and Luther Dickinson, with whom he frequently played at informal gatherings at the home of Otha Turner.
Boyce says he first began playing guitar in public together with Dickinson’s group, The North Mississippi Allstars, and he soon became a staple at local festivals. In 2007, he recorded his first album, Ain’t the Man’s Allright (Sutro Park, 2013), which featured Dickinson and drummer Cedric Burnside. The album revealed Boyce’s distinctive style of long and loping improvisatory blues, clearly rooted in the music of R.L. Burnside and others but distinctly his own. His self-produced live recording from 2019 Boogie w/ R.L Boyce Live (WoodB Records), was nominated for Best Traditional Album in the Blues Music Awards, and in 2023 he appeared on a compilation album produced by the Black Keys’ Dan Auerbach.
You could hear the guitar two miles down the road, all the way to the next county. That mule -- bop, bop, bop, bop. Fred sitting in the wagon; guitar was getting down.
He gained broader attention through his appearance in documentaries including “M For Mississippi” (2008), which captured one of his frequent house parties in Como, and “I Am the Blues” (2015). In addition to playing festivals across North America, Boyce has also performed in England, Spain, Switzerland, Australia, and Columbia (together with Columbian blues artist Carlos Elliot, Jr. and the Cornlickers, with whom he has recorded).
Since 2017, he’s hosted the annual, multi-day R.L. Boyce Picnic, held in Como every September. It includes a “Hill Country blues workshop” and features many other artists from North Mississippi including the Rising Star Fife and Drum Band, members of the Burnside family, and Eric Deaton. The jovial Boyce ensures that the festival retains the same informal character that characterized his old house parties, with many other artists joining him on stage.
Boyce’s commitment to continuing and bolstering regional traditions was expressed through his participation as a mentor to Kody Harrell in the Mississippi Arts Commission's 2020-2021 Folk Arts Apprenticeship Program, and he’s a regular performer at the annual North Mississippi Hill Country Picnic in Waterford. After over 5 decades as a musician, Boyce’s career is a testament to his passion and dedication to his community’s Hill Country blues legacy.

Boxing Legend and Style Icon Muhammad Ali
2016 has been, thus far, one of the most talent depriving years in recent history. Since January, the world has come to halt with news of the untimely demise of some of the most iconic and legendary artists of our time.
Bowie, Prince, Alan Rickman, Harper Lee and more recently Muhammad Ali, are but a few personalities whose outstanding talent has been taken from us prematurely.
While each and every one of the aforementioned are worthy of an outspoken homage, our focus at this time turns to Ali, a legend in and outside of the ring.
The boxing legend in his early years.
Born Cassius Marcellus Clay Jr., Muhammad Ali will always be remembered as one of the most celebrated and iconic sports figures in history. Due in part not only to his athletic skills, but also his activism and set-in-stone opinion of the military and war.
His righteous posture and voice were renowned, especially in an industry where most athletes allow their spokesmen and managers to take the spotlight.
Muhammad Ali’s sense of style and becoming an icon.
Setting the difference in most aspects of his life, style wasn’t an exception for Ali. In fact, his distinct interpretation was heavily supported by the array of bespoke shirts that populated his wardrobe.
His taste in fashion echoed the trends of the decade he was in. Since everything he wore was well-tailored, his looks always eschewed classic elegance.
Here we see him wearing a suit donning skinny lapels, along with a skinny tie, both of which dominated men’s fashion in the 1960’s.
His first experience into the world of bespoke came by way of Gordon Parks, the noted American photographer for Life magazine. Through their many interactions for some of the magazine’s stories, he took notice of Gordon’s bespoke suit.
Gordon had commissioned his from a legend on Savile Row, Harry Helman, who had even made suits for Prince Philip. Ali immediately decided to make six, each in different colors.
He simply told Parks “I’m a gentleman now, I have to look like one.”
During the 1960’s, short-collars and mini-points dominated the landscape, as evidenced by the photos of Ali. While in the 70’s, a more powerful look surfaced with wider lapels and forward-point collars, all in balanced proportions giving a look of dominance.
Ali put in a great deal of effort into his wardrobe pieces, making sure they represented his personality and sense of style. We remember him as a talented boxer, but he was no less of a sartorialist by today’s standards.
Even with the likes of Gianni Agnelli, who was a style icon in his own right, Ali equally held his own to Europe’s best. Perhaps his competitive nature embodied greatness in all respects of his life.
Ali’s unique personality and style.
He was intimidating, but charismatic. He made his presence felt everywhere he went, with throngs of fans eager to see him. Sometimes he would stand for hours to give autographs, just to see the smiles on their faces.
Ali’s unique voice will never be forgotten, and the fights we’ve witnessed will remain a legacy. It’s a blessing to have been in his presence for so long, granted the debilitating illness he suffered from.
He had a sense of style, attitude, and passion that made him very special — trademarks if you will. Whether or not someone similar walks this earth again, there is and was, only one Muhammad Ali.
Muhammad Ali’s lasting impression on boxing and style.
Blessed with the power of his words, Ali used them extensively after his boxing career. With a resounding gravitas, his speeches were heartfelt, moving even the strongest of men.
And while he left us with many pearls of wisdom, we leave you with one of Ali’s most famous quotes.
“Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they’ve been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It’s an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It’s a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”


am i the only person that sides with kanye west over the whole VMA taylor swift thing?
IT IS A CRIME THAT SHE WON BEST MUSIC VIDEO. OVER SINGLE LADIES??? for that terribly misogynistic “you belong with me” crap?? i don’t understand…
Beyonce won Video of the Year
Taylor Swift won Best Female Video.
Because Video of the Year was open to everyone and not just a specific gender, it could be argued that it is more of an honor because there is more competition.
So really, I think Kanye kind of jumped the gun…and should have waited for Beyonce to win Video of the Year (aka BEST VIDEO OF ALL TIME…of 2009)
…Unless of course, he thought that he was going to win Video of the Year (he was nominated for Love Lockdown, and yes I just looked that up)


If it's true that the words 'phenomenal', 'amazing', and 'incredible' have been used so frequently that they've almost lost their meaning, then the same might be said if we only counted the number of times that they were used to describe Jordan Rudess! Such superlatives would be apt if they only described his formidable keyboard technique, as anyone who has heard his recordings or seen him perform live would attest. However, Jordan's mastery extends to his compositional and arranging abilities as well as his skills as a producer and synthesist. Whether as a recording artist or performer, in his solo albums or collaborations with some of the greatest musicians in the world, the career of Jordan Rudess has been marked by a level of excellence that few can match.
A genuine musical prodigy, Jordan entered the prestigious Julliard School of Music at the age of nine for classical piano training. By nineteen, he began to include the rapidly developing world of synthesizers in his recordings and performances. Jordan’s involvement with musical technology would parallel his growth as a musician, his passion for synthesizers providing fertile ground for his musical imagination. It was destined that his exceptional instrumental abilities would become one with a unique personal sound to forge a signature style that would place him at the pinnacle of progressive music.
From early days as a sideman with jazz-rock legends Jan Hammer and Tony Williams, Jordan would go on to record and perform for many years with the Grammy Award winning Paul Winter Consort. However, in 1994 the release of his first solo album “Listen” would propel his career like never before. The album earned him the “Best New Talent” Award in Keyboard Magazine’s Annual Reader’s Poll, and it also attracted the attention of some of the biggest heavyweight acts in progressive rock. This resulted in Jordan joining forces with Steve Morse and the Dixie Dregs for their 1994 tour. During this time he and Dreg’s drummer Rod Morgenstein would also collaborate as a ‘power duo’ in the Rudess/Morgenstein Project (RPM), and produce a studio album and tour in 1997.
From there Jordan’s ascendancy to progressive rock keyboard stardom would continue when in 1998 he connected with John Petrucci and Mike Portnoy of Dream Theater, and bassist Tony Levin in “Liquid Tension Experiment”. This supergroup produced 2 albums for the Magna Carta label, but the collaboration would also convince Portnoy and Petrucci that Jordan simply had to join Dream Theater. In 1999 Jordan accepted their invitation, and would go on to record “Metropolis pt. 2: Scenes From A Memory” with the band which was met with tremendous critical acclaim.
Since then Jordan has recorded 3 additional studio albums with the band, 2002's “Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence”, 2003's “Train of Thought”, and 2005's “Octavarium”, contributing as a writer as well as a performer. He has also appeared on several live albums with the band including the concert DVD “Score”, a live 2006 performance at New York’s Radio City Music Hall that featured Dream Theater performing with a full symphony orchestra under the direction of Jamshied Sharifi. The DVD release of this performance reached platinum in the US soon after its release.
One might assume that his full time status in Dream Theater would leave time for little else, but Jordan also released two solo albums during this time. 2001 saw the release of his second solo rock album “Feeding the Wheel” on Magna Carta Records. This album featured an impressive list of guest players including guitarists Steve Morse, John Petrucci, Billy Sheehan on bass, drummer Terry Bozzio, vocalist Barry Carl, violinist Mark Wood, and cellist Eugene Friesen.
In August of 2004 Jordan released his third solo album “Rhythm of Time”, also on Magna Carta. This record featured another mind-boggling collection of guests including drummer Rod Morgenstein, guitarists Joe Satriani, Steve Morse, Vinnie Moore, Greg Howe, and Daniel J; bassist Dave LaRue, and vocalist Kip Winger. Somehow in all of this Jordan finds time to appear as a guest himself on other recordings; of particular note is David Bowie’s 2002 “Heathen” album.
As prolific as this output may seem, this has really been just a selection of highlights from Jordan’s career. If you take into account the rest of his projects, his instructional books and DVDs, his online conservatory, an e-magazine called Accent, and the fact that he manages to balance all this with raising a family, you start to get some idea just how busy the man is! This is why we feel especially fortunate to have been able to catch up with him recently for a chat about his most recent projects, an inside scoop on his use of Ivory in the studio, and a few other topics of interest.

Was the Star of a New Movie About Profiling, Profiled?
As candidate for irony of the year award, note this news item wherein Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan
was detained Friday by U.S. immigration officials at Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey because his name matched with some names on a computer alert list. The actor is in the U.S. to promote a new film, “My Name is Khan,” which is about racial profiling of Muslims after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
Read the full account here.


He played three times as the opening act for living guitar legend Eric Clapton - in three of the most renowned concert venues in the German-speaking world, and now he is stepping into the limelight as Gotthard's opening act at the motofestival!
After entering the Swiss album charts with his current album "Roadhouse", the full-blooded bluesman from the Bernese Oberland is now stepping it up a notch. He doesn't make music, he is music - with body and soul. The real blues, the original boogie-woogie and the authentic rock n' roll go straight under the skin with Amacher's smoky voice. Marc Amacher, that is music out of passion and a thrilling show - fascinating and always surprising. The pleasure is not completely harmless: it is addictive.

The news that Michael Jackson had collapsed and died has shocked the world in the past couple of days. He was an icon who shaped contemporary pop music and culture in both positive and negative ways for better than four decades. He was indisputably a musical genius, a prodigy with an ability to write a memorable pop hook unlike anybody else in a generation.
He was also a walking contradiction, whose creatively reinvented images, gentle persona and generous spirit clashed with his extravagant lifestyle, bizarre behavior, androgynous sexuality, suspected pedophilia and other things to keep us off balance.
Because of that and more, it’s easy to dismiss Jackson as “wacko Jacko”.
But here’s the thing. Before any of those things, Michael Jackson was a creation of God—“fearfully and wonderfully made”, with God-given dignity and God-planned purpose. If I look at him in that light, this death strikes me as indescribably sad.
This was a soft and gentle soul, who from all reports experienced verbal and emotional abuse from his father at an early age. He talked of belt beatings when dance steps were missed and of throwing up from the pressure to perform. You have to wonder if the whole Neverland thing was an attempt to recapture a carefree childhood that was lost in the rush to celebrity. Sad.
Another by-product of that upbringing was the longing to prove himself and be accepted. By all accounts, Michael’s heart was deaf to all the success and worldwide acclaim. He wanted everybody to know he wasn’t a fluke or just a child star who hung on for awhile. That was the driving motivation behind the run of 50 sold-out concerts in London that were set to start in a few weeks. It was as if he wanted to scream, “Don’t forget me! Don’t forget I’m great! Keep loving me, world!” Sad.
Where do you start with his outer image? He often appeared in military suits compete with epaulets and nameless medals for some fantasy act of heroism pinned to his chest. But more evident was the constant plastic surgery and face-whitening that completely reshaped his look over the past 20 years or so. Question: what sort of self-loathing to do have to feel when you look in the mirror and want to make that person disappear? Sad.
By all accounts, for all his money and entertainment connections and family, Michael Jackson was a desperately lonely man. He lived behind gates, in a controlled, tightly monitored world. There was a long time when his closest companion was a chimp named Bubbles. When things got crazy here after financial setbacks and one of the trials, he moved to Bahrain to live in isolation with a member of the royal family. For every call from Elizabeth Taylor or Uri Geller, every visit with Deepok Chopra or Quincy Jones, or even visits with his kids, there were hours alone. The 911 call apparently came from an assistant, who was there with a doctor. Sad.
Joy. Satisfaction. Acceptance. Meaning. Grace. Michael Jackson frantically pursued them all for a lifetime, with an almost superhuman force. Lisa Marie Presley was married to Michael for almost 2 years. On her MySpace page yesterday, she wrote, “I wanted to ‘save him’. I wanted to save him from the inevitable which is what has just happened. His family and his loved ones also wanted to save him from this as well but didn’t know how….”
None of them could save Michael from Michael and help him gain the things he so desperately wanted. Only Jesus could do that. And unless I’m missing something, Michael never encountered the love of Jesus and the gospel that would have changed everything. Was there no one around him, in all those recording sessions, among all the business associates or people who serviced his lifestyle, who could introduce him to Jesus? To help Michael know the Jesus who made Michael, who loved Michael as he was and not for his performances, and who gave everything for him to experience an abundant life that would make all the glitz fade and exchange Neverland for the “land of the living’ bustling with the forever joy of King Jesus.
I wish somebody could have told him. Or that he would have listened. And now it’s too late.
And that’s sad.
Update: An LA music critic writes about “Michael Jackson: The Wounds, the Broken Heart”


Bob Marley famously sang: “Don’t worry about a thing, ’cause every little thing’s gonna be ok” (Three Little Birds)
Jamaican singer-songwriter, Bob Marley, had 6 children by different ‘baby mothers’ and 3 by his wife, Rita. Despite the singer’s battle with cancer, knowing it was terminal, he did not make a Will. Why not? He left an estimated $30 million, and on-going royalties and dozens of claimants. The squabbles began over his estate at his state funeral which was attended by 30,000 people.
While it may seem surprising that singer/songwriter Bob Marley, who was diagnosed with cancer in the summer of 1977 and died four years later at the young age of 36, didn’t have a will. Apparently his religious beliefs prevented him from making one. That led to an interesting fight over the rights to his estate among his widow, Rita, and some thirteen children, but not before Mr. Marley’s lawyer and accountant convinced Rita to forge some documents after the singer/songwriter’s death that would give control of the entire estate to her. Mr. Marley has been a top earning dead celebrity for many years, earning $20 million between 2013 and 2014 alone. And as recently as 2011, the Marley estate was in a court battle with Mr. Marley’s half-brother. By not making a Will, and hoping that “every little thing’s gonna be ok” – it seems that, sadly, may not be the case.


Once Upon a time in the golden age of Hollywood, the daring and unconventional aviatrix Pancho Barnes received a special invitation from her close friend, the dashing and talented actor Ramon Navarro. Ramon Navarro was a world-famous leading man and one of the top box office stars of the 1920s and early 1930s. It was February 6, 1930, and the film industry was booming. Ramon was celebrating his 31st birthday on the set of his latest film at MGM studios, and he wanted Pancho to be there as his honored guest. Their friendship was a unique bond, built on mutual admiration and respect.
Pancho was thrilled to attend Ramon’s birthday party and knew she had to make a special effort for her dear friend. She decided to trade her usual pilot’s attire for an elegant dress, a rare sight for those who knew her well. Pancho even enlisted the help of a talented baker to create an amazing vanilla birthday cake to surprise Ramon on his special day. Vanilla cake with vanilla frosting was Ramon’s favorite. The top of the cake was adorned with intricate icing details resembling Ramon’s most famous film role as Ben-Hur racing across the top of the cake in his chariot.
On the day of the celebration, Pancho stepped into her limousine, feeling both excited and a little out of her element in her elegant dress. As the limousine glided through the streets of Hollywood, Pancho couldn’t help but smile, knowing the surprise she had in store for Ramon.
Upon arriving at the MGM lot, her driver pulled right up to the open MGM sound stage. Pancho stepped out of the limousine, and a hush fell over the crowd gathered for the party. They were stunned to see the famous aviatrix dressed so elegantly, a testament to her deep friendship with Ramon. As Pancho unveiled the exquisite cake, the crowd gasped in admiration.
Ramon, who had been chatting with other guests, turned around to see his dear friend Pancho and her glamorous attire, holding the beautiful cake. His eyes lit up with delight, as he rushed over to greet her. “Pancho, you look absolutely stunning!” he exclaimed, embracing her warmly. “Thank you for being here and for this incredible cake!”
Pancho smiled, responding, “Anything for you, Ramon! I wouldn’t miss your birthday for the world, and I wanted to help make it a memorable celebration.”
The entire cast and crew gathered around to sing “Happy Birthday” to Ramon. Before cutting the cake Pancho, who had hired her friend, photographer George Hurrell to document this special event, took a humorous group photo of the party attendees. After cutting the cake, Pancho and Ramon spent the rest of the day reminiscing about their adventures together and sharing stories…and some wild tales…. with the cast and crew assembled.
As the party drew to a close, Pancho said her ‘goodbyes. Ramon hugged her tightly, grateful for the incredible day and the unforgettable memories they shared. With a promise to meet again soon, Pancho climbed into her limousine and waved goodbye to her dear friend Ramon. As the car pulled away, Ramon couldn’t help but feel touched by the extraordinary lengths Pancho had gone to make his birthday truly special, a testament to their enduring friendship.


In answer to the question "what inspired the voice of Heath Ledger's Joker?" there has a lot of speculation. The speculated answer is that Heath Ledger was inspired by a 1971 interview with singer Tom Waits. Watch the interview below:
The resemblance between the voice of Tom Waits and the voice of Ledger's Joker is staggering... but there is no proof that Ledger ever saw the clip himself. I choose to believe that Heath Ledger was inspired by the Tom Waits interview because of this quote from his 2007 interview with Empire: "It's a combination of reading all the comic books I could that were relevant to the script and then just closing my eyes and meditating on it. I sat around in a hotel in London for about a month, locked myself away, formed a little diary and experimented with voices- it was important to try to find a somewhat iconic voice and laugh."
I believe that Heath Ledger's search for inspiration may have lead him to the Tom Waits interview in the way that it lead him to read the comic books.

According to AFP, Shane Black's Predator sequel/reboot will begin filming this October, with a scheduled release date of March 2018.
In an interview with AFP, Black has described the film as "...significantly bigger" than the previous films.
“To the best of my knowledge, the train is rolling. It took some convincing because they’ve been putting out these movies all along with a $50-60 million budget, and they all had a guaranteed return. But there was never the sense that it was an event picture. It was more like ‘I understand another Predator is coming out — maybe we’ll see it maybe we won’t.’”
In the past, Black has already stated that they are working on persuading star of the original, Arnold Schwarzenegger.


DT 702 aka Black McCaulay Culkin aka Sin City's Very Own began his journey into the Hip Hop Industry in 2014. He started off writing poetry but was later encouraged by his cousins LaShone (Tha Spa) and Edward (Nevada Boy E) to become a rap artist. He wasn't so sure about taking that path until Ed, who was a rapper, invited him to his home studio. DT recorded his first track "Drink Motivation" and from that point forth he decided he would take full advantage of his time and invest into his newly discovered talent. The following year, DT 702 was managed by his cousin Kelly (Kelz) who was heavily involved in the Music Industry. During this time DT and Edward became a duo/group called "Sin City Flow”, but once new doors began to open he separated from his family to embark as an Independent Artist. Due to his drive and consistency, DT was introduced to his new manager Natrell Anderson by way of a friend of the family.
Since then, he has continued to dive deeper into his craft by making appearances and performances at Club Niche, Club Sauce, Money Plays, The Alton Sterling Rally Event, The Queen G Live Experience and has released a music video with Davion White for "Keep it 100."
DT's style of rap is influenced by Kendrick Lamar, Kanye West, and Nas just to name a few. He is determined as a music artist to stay true to self and remain consistent. He encourages his listeners to do the same.

By Devin Kerns
Distinguished Young Woman of Oklahoma for 2011
I was recently looking through my news app on my phone and was confronted by the shocking mug shot of a girl who I used to look up to—Amanda Bynes. I was horrified. I have many memories of watching “The Amanda Show” with my friends as a little girl and laughing at the dancing lobsters on the show. Throughout her career, I could always count on having a truly hilarious time watching Bynes’ movies—“She’s the Man” is my favorite. She was funny, but in a way that could appeal to girls and guys, which is a rare and intriguing quality in actresses these days. I never thought I would see her go down a path taken by so many other girls in the limelight—Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Nicole Richie, and Mischa Barton have already PAVED that road.
In coping with the misery of the current demise of one of my favorite actresses, I decided to write this blog post and focus on the triumphs of some of the most famous women of our generation—women who truly understand and exemplify what it takes to be distinguished.
Emma Stone is one of the most unique actresses I’ve ever seen. She was hilarious in Superbad, but really broke out in Easy A, a movie where she portrays a girl who really challenges her high school’s stereotypes (she also was nominated for a Golden Globe for it). The role I really love Emma in, though, is as Eugenia in The Help. She brings a refreshing light to any movie and she is never in news for being anything less than distinguished.
Tina Fey is definitely one of my role models. Not only was she head writer of Saturday Night Live (Who can forget her hilarious impersonation of Sarah Palin?) but she wrote and co-starred in Mean Girls, THE movie with the best social commentary, albeit exaggerated, on what it is like to be a girl in high school today. Now she writes and stars in her own TV show called 30 Rock as well. She also wrote a book about her life (Bossypants). Oh yeah, AND she’s been married to the same man since 2001 and has two daughters. Who says you can’t have it all?
I love Katie Couric. She recently gave a lecture at my school, and she is one of the most inspiring women I have ever had the opportunity to see. I even got the chance to ask her about her work in Miss Representation, a documentary about the exploitation of females in the media. Everyone watched her on Today, and she became the highest-paid news anchor at the CBS Evening News and the only female solo anchor. Now she’s going to begin a talk show under the name Katie. She has also been an inspirational spokeswoman about colon cancer since her late husband passed away because of the disease. She is truly an exemplar of a successful, independent woman.
Ever since Taylor Swift exploded on the country music scene when she was 16 to win multiple Grammy’s with her autobiographical pop country, she has been an example that a young woman can be on the top of the world AND stay grounded. While her relationships are highly publicized, she is known for being intensely real in her songwriting style and staying connected to her fans. Here’s one of my favorite quotes from her: “For everything I do, I think about a 6-year-old girl and her mom that I saw at my concert last night. I think about what those two individuals would think if I were at a club last night. I never want to be arrested, and I never want to get a DUI, those are my moral values.”

Gloria Hunniford OBE
Gloria hails from Portadown, Northern Ireland and started her professional life as a singer making many records. After a spell working in Canada, her media career started as a BBC production assistant in Belfast and as a local radio broadcaster. Gloria’s popularity soared in Northern Ireland and during the 1970s and 1980s she presented Good Evening Ulster and, on network ITV, Sunday Sunday and We Love TV. Gloria progressed within the BBC and became the first woman to present her own daily radio show on Radio 2 which continued until 1995.
During the past 20 years, Gloria’s career as television presenter and celebrity has blossomed and has seen her appear in numerous programmes including Gloria Live, Wogan, Holiday, Songs of Praise, Kilroy and Open House with Gloria Hunniford. Gloria has won many awards including TV Personality of the Year and Best Dressed Female and has made a health and exercise video called Fit for Life.
In recent years, Gloria appeared on BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing, dancing with Darren Bennett and was one of the presenters of Heaven and Earth until 2007. Still as busy as ever, Gloria is currently filming Cash in the Attic for BBC1 and Castle in the Country with John Craven for BBC2. She also has a weekly debating slot on The Alan Titchmarsh Show and is part of a formidable female trio with Angela Rippon and Jennie Bond presenting Rip Off Britain, a consumer complaints programme on BBC1.
Gloria was hosting The Variety Club International’s Awards Banquet at London’s Guildhall in 2009, at which the choir was invited to sing three songs for the 500 guests present - including Prince and Princess Michael of Kent - when she first heard the Orpheus. From the moment she heard the choir sing, and following rapturous applause, Gloria became ‘hooked’ on the Orpheus sound and accepted an invitation to become co-patron of the Orpheus alongside her friend and fellow co-patron, John Ratcliff, CBE. Both are regular guests at the Orpheus' annual concerts at the Wycombe Swan theatre every May. The choir is delighted to be associated with Gloria who has deservedly earned iconic status in the hearts and minds of the British public.
John Ratcliff CBE
Over a period of more than 40 years, John has built a very successful group of engineering companies, amongst which is the UK No. 1 in designing, manufacturing and marketing a complete range of tail-lifts for a whole range of vehicles. Wessex Lifts who design, manufacture and sell low rise lifts for disabled people both in the home and public places are also part of the Ratcliff Group. Stone Hardy, a national maintenance & repairer of commercial vehicle tail-lifts and bodywork, from eight locations, complete the group.
John has given a major part of his life to charitable works for over 40 years. In 1985, he was the Chief Barker of the Variety Club of Great Britain. In 1993, he served as International President of Variety International for two years, visiting over 50 clubs in 14 countries. All this was done with the support of his wife Marsha Rae, the inspiration for the largest fundraisers for Variety around the world including the famous “Gold Heart” Day.
John is very proud to be a Companion of the Grand Order of Water Rats, having been appointed in 1993. In the City, John became the Master of the Worshipful Company of Carmen in 1997. For six years, he has been Patron of the SOE (Society of Operations Engineers). In the 2000 New Years' Honours List, he received a CBE for his service to the Transport Industry and also his work with disabled young people.
He was thrilled to be invited to become our patron in 2009 and has since been joined by his very good friend Gloria Hunniford. The choir is delighted to be associated with John and we thank him sincerely for his contribution in promoting the Orpheus in his charity work within the entertainment sector.

Thanks to stereotypicalteenagegirl
So, let me start off my saying that I just started following your website, and it is definitely great! (:
However, I was really surprised not to see Jonathan Rhys Meyers on the actors list! So maybe you guys don’t know about him, or he just isn’t well-known enough to make the section, but he is one of my favorites!
Thank you so much! :) We have posted some Jonathan Ryhs Meyers in the past, but his name didn’t get on the list :( but now it is :) Enjoy!


Last week, the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority (LVCVA) revealed it was switching up its iconic slogan, “What happens here, stays here.” While R&R Partners’ principal and CEO Billy Vassiliadis wouldn’t tip the slogan, the smart money was on “What happens here, only happens here.”
On last night’s Grammy Awards, that exact slogan came to light. However, in light of the tragic death of Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna and seven others in a helicopter crash, the LVCVA has opted to delay any activations around the new slogan and campaign.
“We were prepared to launch the newest advertising campaign for Las Vegas during the Grammys telecast on Sunday, Jan. 26,” Steve Hill, CEO and president of the LVCVA said in a statement. “In light of today’s tragic accident that claimed the lives of Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna, and others on board, we are postponing any activity planned on the Las Vegas Strip until a future date. The hearts of everyone in Las Vegas are with the families and friends of those lost, with all of Los Angeles and with his fans around the world.”
Since the new ad was already placed in rotation, the LVCVA was unable to withdraw it. But, the LVCVA honored the victims of the helicopter crash on the strip and on its website.
The new spot includes Shania Twain, Christina Aguilera, UFC star Francis Ngannou. At the end of the ad, Aerosmith frontman Steven Tyler gets the crowd into the act with the new slogan (which was tipped off last November).
The old slogan was in use since 2003.

Washington, DC – Song-master Bob Dylan graced the stage of the VerizonCenter last evening on his tour promoting his new album Tempest. Area fans remain grateful that only two songs from the new gravelly album were played, but their joy was overshadowed by concerns for the artist’s health.
“I mean, of course he sounded awful,” reported fan and audience member Avery Oldlady. “But when he let out a ‘HURR’ instead of ‘hair’ in Tangled up in Blue, I seriously thought he was going to die right in front of my grandchildren I dragged there with me.”
911.” The famous chorus of Ballad of a Thin Man (“Something is happening here, but you don’t know what it is”) was interpreted as geriatric confusion by the singer. “How does it feel?” in Like a Rolling Stone left audience members concerned the musician had lost feelings in an extremity, a thought further complicated by the right-leg lifting Dylan repeated like a disabled dancer, and feared their folk-rock hero was having a stroke.
“I mean, I am sure they took precautions and that all those talented, strapping young musician men around Bob knew CPR,” Avery stated. “But by the time we were applauding for an encore, I found myself calling out ‘We love you Dylan! But it’s ok if it’s nappy time!’ I mean, the guy has to retire sometime. We’re exploiting an old man.”
Others reported that although the band and singer rarely seemed to be playing the same tune, Dylan had some strong vocal moments like that in Blowin in the Wind, which was played in encore and made the audience suspect that motherfucker could sing the whole time. All present agreed that they hoped Bob Dylan continued to sing, perform and live forever.

in his Kanye Nest
when he wakes up he’s going to be his kanye best
This is the tale of Kanye West, who is snuggled in his Kanye Nest, having himself a Kanye Rest, for he must be at his Kanye Best, before he’s off on a Kanye Quest, where he’ll be put to the Kanye Test, in hopes to retrieve the Kanye Chest that is distinctly marked with the Kanye Crest, He shall return to the Kanye Nest and have himself a Kanye Fest, where he will welcome many Kanye Guests, but first he must be rid of Kanye Pests, before he can put on his Kanye Vest and dance at the party with such Kanye Zest.

Long before Tameka Foster Raymond was known for her high profile marriage, the drama, and subsequent divorce, she lived a vibrant off-screen life of her own, working as a self-made, highly accomplished, fashion coutiere who helped to curate the images of many of today’s award-winning entertainers.
In this honest, sincere, witty, and at times gut-wrenching memoir Tameka shares her story for the first time. She opens up about her early years growing up in Oakland, her childhood influences, and losing her first love while never losing decorum, dignity, or the ability to dream. In her own words, she details nearly dying, and later coping with the utmost heartbreak of losing her 11-year-old son, Kile. Tameka takes readers on this deeply personal journey to illustrate that everything you need to navigate life already lies within you.
Here I Stand is a book about growth and renewal. Perseverance through self-reflection and optimism. And ultimately, it’s about making the conscious effort to remain in a “beautiful state”.

Mod: The folks over at the White House are not very happy about this. Then again, the not entirely brilliant Donald Trump did want to involve himself in the rap world, so there is that. The Kanye West fallout continues.
The fuss began when the rapper tweeted out Friday a promotional video for his new album “Dime Trap.” The clip is only a minute long, but it packs a lot of shock into those brief 60 seconds.
It opens with real footage of President Trump walking alone to a helicopter. Dubbed over the video is a voice-over: “Melania Trump did not go to Mar-a-Lago with the president this weekend, which has a lot of people wondering.”
The chopper takes off, and the scene shifts to T.I., clad in a sharp blue suit, wandering around the Oval Office. He stares out the window for a moment, then walks to the desk and places his hand on it, as if the weight of the world is on his shoulders.
Then, a Melania look-alike struts in, wearing only heels and a green jacket emblazoned with the words “I really don’t care, do u?” — the same words on a jacket the actual Mrs. Trump wore on a visit to the U.S.-Mexico border, where migrant children were separated from their families because of the Trump administration’s immigration policies.
As T.I. lights a cigar, the Melania look-alike drops her jacket, revealing that she is wearing nothing underneath. She then begins dancing, climbing on the desk and tugging at T.I.'s tie.
The video ends with a montage of scenes, including Trump riding around in a golf cart wearing a MAGA hat, as well as the Melania look-alike spray-painting red X’s over the eyes of a portrait of Trump. Finally, the video cuts to a black screen with text promoting T.I.'s new album.
The tweet that accompanied the video had a simple message: “Dear 45, I ain’t Kanye.” Superstar Kanye West recently visited the White House for a bizarre conversation with Trump.
Mod: I guess the First Lady's spokespersons will try and make their case about this. However, the T.I. video is reminiscent of some of Melania's own modeling work.


Jami Gertz / NBA Draft Lottery05.16.18
So inexplicably, Jami Gertz was the Hawks' representative at the NBA draft lottery last night (she and her husband are apparently part of the ownership group that owns the Hawks). If you don't know who that is, she was in the Seinfeld episode with "spare a square" (it's these two clips):
Zach Lowe in his coverage of the lottery asked her about it [link to full article]:
By the way: Gertz does not mind if you ask her about her iconic "spare a square" role on "Seinfeld." She says multiple women over the years have spotted her in restaurants, waited for her to go to the bathroom, raced into the stall next to her, and asked if she might "spare a square." People are nuts. Gertz is a good sport.


Many courtiers at the wedding of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha were scandalized by the groom’s father’s blatant attempt to seduce virtually all of the Queen’s bridesmaids. Those among them who were already aware of Ernest l, Duke of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha’s conjugal exploits, however, probably would’ve been shocked had he not tried to seduce them; for Queen Victoria’s new father-in-law possessed one of the worst personal reputations of any European prince of his day. Not only did he openly cheat on Prince Albert’s much younger mother with mistresses and prostitutes when he felt his wife had become too old, then hypocritically divorce and banish her when she was caught having an affair, but when one of his former teenage amours and mother of one among his numerous bastards refused to keep quiet about how he had abducted, corrupted and abandoned her and their son, Duke Ernest attempted to have the both of them murdered.
In 1817 his mother, the Duchess Augusta, arranged for the 33 year old Ernest to marry his 16 year old cousin, Princess Louisa of Saxe-Coburg-Altenburg. After having birthed two sons, Princes Ernest jr. and Albert, Duke Ernest decided his new wife, at 20, had grown too old and matronly for her husband’s sexual tastes and he resumed his premarital habit of openly sleeping with prostitutes. Having decided what was good for the goose was certainly feasible for the gander, Louisa soon engaged in her own affair with an army officer. Once her husband found out about this in 1824, he did what it appears most pre-20th century princes did under the circumstances: he divorced his wife, banished her from his court, and forbade her from ever seeing her children again. Louisa remarried, but unfortunately died of cancer at 30 in Paris in 1831. Duke Ernest remarried the next year; this time to a teenage niece named Mary.
The Duke of Saxe-Coburg’s already dismal reputation reached a new low when one of his former teenage mistresses, and mother of one of his illegitimate children, became a famous actress in Paris and began regaling suitors with stories concerning her former minor royal sugar daddy.
According to author Karl Shaw in Royal Babylon, The Alarming History of European Royalty, Ernest seduced Pauline Panam, later known by the stage name “La Belle Grecque”, in Paris when she was 16. He then smuggled his underage mistress to his duchy disguised as a boy. He kept her in a safe house where he visited her regularly, at least until she gave birth to a son a year later. He soon grew tired of Pauline, and sent both his ingenue and their bijou packing. Once she became a famous actress back in Paris, the whole of royal Europe became aware of her plight at the hands of the rakish old Duke because she never tired of soliciting sympathy by revealing it. Ernest first devised a plan to silence Pauline by kidnapping their son, another little Ernest, and holding him hostage. He then decided a better solution would be to have them both murdered in a fake carriage accident. Neither plan worked, and Mademoiselle Panam and little Ernest survived to tell their sob story another day.
Duke Ernest would live just long enough to see his oldest grandson, the future King Edward Vll, born before dying at 60 in 1844. Charles Greville writes in his diary that upon the birth of the Prince of Wales his father expressed fears that the boy would grow up to be as dissolute as his maternal uncles. One can only marvel at the hypocrisy and short sightedness of Prince Albert’s concern over the impact his son’s Hanoverian heritage would have on his character, while completely ignoring the far more direct influence the boy’s paternal grandfather’s dissolute legacy might have. Of course, the Prince Consort’s fears were well founded; for Edward Vll became the most whorish king British history has ever known, and a worthy successor to his combined, and equally dissolute, Hanover and Coburg heritage!

beatlemaniacs being interviewed at the beatles 1965 concert at the shea stadium. the girl on the left is rumored to be meryl streep, as she was indeed there that day.
Meryl Streep confirmed in a TV interview recently (during which this clip was also aired) that this is film of her and her friend when they attended the Beatles’ Shea Stadium concert August 15, 1965. She said she was too shy to speak to the reporter herself and let her friend do most of the talking.


It’s 2014. The last pop album to go platinum in its first week, as of this moment, is Red, Taylor Swift’s genius pop/country hybrid that busted up every radio station in the nation for months on end with “I Knew You Were Trouble,” “22” and “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.”
That happened in 2012. I was well aware of Taylor’s reign at the time– even a year later, when I was working as a cashier at Yogurt Guru (whose management insisted that we exclusively play the SiriusXM Top 40 station through the store’s sound system) I ended up listening to Swift’s songs over and over again, as they stubbornly stayed on top of the charts.
Red smashed everything. In fifty years, we’ll be pointing to Red in the same way that we’re pointing at Thriller today when we talk about the ’80s. Red‘s throne has been untouched for two years. That is, it’s been untouched up until now.
The good news is, Taylor Swift is the one threatening to unseat it. Says Forbes.com: “Swift is on pace to sell more than 1 million copies of 1989 in its opening week—a feat no solo artist has achieved since Swift herself did it two years ago.”
So, I don’t know, I guess I had high hopes for 1989 when I became one of the (almost) one million people to download it on iTunes this week.
As I listened to the album, glitzy pop song after glitzy pop song rolling by, I started putting the pieces together. And the conclusion I resigned myself to was a little bit… disappointing.
I really want Taylor to be a pioneer of our exciting new feminist, digital, niche-market music culture, awkwardly dancing into the future of what “pop” can be. But listening to the album, all I can hear is echoes from the rest of the billboard. “Wildest Dreams” is dripping with the sultry sound of Lana Del Rey. “Blank Space” and “New Romance” has hints of Lorde. “Welcome to New York” could have easily been sung by Lady Gaga or Robyn, and I wouldn’t be the wiser.
Says the Wall Street Journal: “For the most part, the music of “1989” adheres to a modern commercial model—chipper but with a hint of danger, synth-dominated and rigid. Ms. Swift’s voice—strong and sweet, if occasionally cloyingly so—withstands the electronic bombast, but it is rarely her friend.”
There’s a lot of less-than-interesting vocal hooks, in some cases hovering around one note in an annoying monotone. For the first time, her voice is cloaked in digital effects (is that autotune??) and heavily stacked, like most pop vocals are.
Much of the album, really, would fit right in on a (dare I say it) Katy Perry album. Where Red defined Taylor as a unique artist, 1989 tosses her into the bucket of “Female Pop Singer/Partial Songwriter.”
To be clear, I don’t want to bash that bucket. It’s not my cup of tea, but obviously there are lots of people (mostly young girls) who love to listen to that kind of music. But my criticism is separate from that. If Swift had made a weird, sudden shift to generic-sounding dinner jazz, I’d be the same degree of disappointed.
Of course, the record has exceptions. There’s Swift’s single “Shake It Off,” which has racked up 225 million views and 1.5 million likes on YouTube (all of them very well deserved).
I also dig “New Romance” and “All You Had to Do Was Stay.” But they’ve lost the thing that made Red great: honesty. At least, the guise of honesty.
On NPR yesterday, Taylor told Melissa Block: “In the past, I’ve written mostly about heartbreak or pain that was caused by someone else and felt by me. On this album, I’m writing about more complex relationships, where the blame is kind of split 50-50.”
So, despite the adorable unicorn costume, she’s growing up, she’s changing the starry-eyed beliefs of her youth, the ones that used to be the foundation of her personal, relatable lyrics. I guess I commend the effort she’s taken to stay true to how she feels. But listening to the album, it seems as if she’s simply taken up the belief system and lyricism of every other pop artist. Her lyrics are no longer heartbreaking or remarkably quirky. They’re just… regular.
I’ve puzzled over what all of this means, and unfortunately I think the backstory here is much simpler than I would like it to be. Red was incredible. But the songs that did the best on air were the glitzy, pop ones. Swift has summed up her intentions behind 1989 by simply saying “I wanted to make a pop album.” Unfortunately, tragically, I think that Taylor is seeing more dollar signs than she would lead us to believe.
The great thing about the album is that while almost every white pop artist has succumbed to appropriating hip-hop to retain the spotlight (Katy Perry, Jessie J, I’m looking at you), 1989 is a fun, sort of ’80s retro set of songs, without a hint of weird appropriation. The white takeover of hip-hop is completely in swing at this point, so there’s something to be said about the fact that Swift has decidedly not hopped on that bandwagon.
And we need to keep in mind that Taylor is still only 24, and hopefully she has many, many albums ahead of her to hone in on her new style. Will 1989 destroy the radio in the way that Red did two years ago? I don’t know, maybe. I’m not in control of the billboard. The album might do well because it’s an effective pop record. It also might not do well, for exactly the same reason.
And honestly, because I’ll always be in Swift’s corner, I kind of hope the album flops. I hope that Swift, like me, can see what the record lacks, and where the music still has room to grow. I hope she can see that 1989 should only be the beginning.
*UPDATE: As of last night, 1989 has sold $1.2 million copies, becoming the latest album to go platinum in a week since Red.


PUTNEY — Next Stage Arts Project and Twilight Music present contemporary folk singer/songwriters Patty Larkin and Darryl Purpose at Next Stage on Friday, June 10, at 7:30 p.m.
Patty Larkin is “a visionary of sound and wonder, a real deal version of artistry made of equal parts guitar wizardry, vocals shot through with soul, and inventive lyrics that ripple across the terrain of the heart,” say organizers.
Described as “riveting” (Chicago Tribune), “hypnotic” (Entertainment Weekly), and “drop-dead brilliant” (Performing Songwriter), Patty has performed for more than 30 years with what organizers describe as “an imagination, enchantment, and technical artistry that has redefined the boundaries of the guitar driven singer/songwriter.”
Larkin's recent projects include putting poems from 10 notable poets to song for her Bird in a Cage album, gathering 25 friends, including Rosanne Cash, Suzanne Vega, Shawn Colvin, Janis Ian, Bruce Cockburn, Mary Chapin Carpenter, and Greg Brown to perform on her retrospective album 25, and producing the groundbreaking album La Guitara, a compilation of women guitarists whose aim is to actively change preconceptions about gender and guitar heroes.
Larkins's body of work has earned 11 Boston Music Awards. She has released 14 albums and has an Honorary Doctorate of Music from Berklee College of Music to her credit. Her songs have been covered by artists such as Cher and Holly Cole and have been featured in television and films.
As a teenager, Darryl Purpose hitchhiked from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, where he began a legendary career as a professional blackjack player. In 1986, he walked from Los Angeles to Washington, D.C., on the Great Peace March for Global Nuclear Disarmament.
He began playing music on marches, including one in the former Soviet Union, and performed in the first-ever outdoor stadium concert in the history of Russia, produced by Bill Graham, featuring Santana, James Taylor, and Bonnie Raitt. Since then, he has released eight albums of original music that feature his narrative lyrics and fingerstyle guitar. The last two, Still The Birds and Next Time Around, spent weeks at #1 for airplay on Roots Music Report.

NFTs, or non-fungible tokens, have taken the art world by storm. In this blog, we’ll explore the world of celebrity NFT collections, including what they are, why they’re popular, and what makes them unique. We’ll also take a look at some of the most notable celebrity NFT collections and what they’ve sold for. Whether you’re a fan of the celebrities or just interested in the NFT space, this blog has all the information you need to understand the world of celebrity NFTs.
Why are NFTs popular amongst celebrities?
NFTs or Non-Fungible Tokens have become a popular trend amongst celebrities as they provide a unique and exclusive way to monetize their digital assets such as music, artwork, videos, tweets, etc. With collections like The Merge and The first 5000 Days, celebrities too are now jumping on the bandwagon by creating and selling their own NFT collections.
NFTs allow celebrities to sell a limited edition of their digital content, providing a new revenue stream and giving them control over the distribution and ownership of their work. Additionally, NFTs offer a high level of transparency, security, and immutability through blockchain technology, ensuring the authenticity of the digital asset and giving buyers a sense of ownership and exclusivity.
Celebrity NFT Collections
Following is the list of celebrities in the NFT space, that have taken NFTs by storm.
#1 – Timbaland – Jazzy NFT collections
Timothy Zachery Mosley, better known as Timbaland, is a multi-talented artist who serves as a record producer, singer-songwriter, and rapper. He has a deep love for music and has made significant contributions to albums of various popular musicians. Timbaland, a multiple Grammy winner, has produced hits for well-known artists such as Jay-Z, Snoop Dog, Ludacris, and Ginuwine.
To enter the highly exclusive Bored Ape Yacht Club, Timbaland acquired Bored Ape #590, one of the 10,000 Bored Ape NFTs that are considered to be the most valuable NFTs on the market, along with CryptoPunks. Only NFT art pieces by artists like Pak and Beeple have garnered higher bids.
Timbaland’s Bored Ape Yacht Club NFT #590 is a five-trait ape that boasts a golden cardigan, dark brown sunglasses, and a golden chain that ties his whole look together. He was able to purchase the ape for 74.69 ETH, approximately $220,000 based on the current Ethereum price.
In addition, Timbaland recently made headlines with the announcement of his new venture, Ape-In Productions, in partnership with Yuga Labs. This entertainment company aims to provide a platform for the development of music and animation for metaverse applications, with a focus on giving artists back control and long-term ownership of their creations.
“We’ve built a new entertainment platform in the metaverse that puts creative control and long-term ownership back in the hands of artists, a concept that is incredibly important to us,” said Timbaland.
Thus, Timbaland not only owns a Bored Ape NFT, but he is also showing a keen interest in blockchain technology and the Otherside metaverse. Other celebrities who have purchased Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs include Eminem, Justin Bieber, Snoop Dogg, Paris Hilton, and Neymar Jr.
#2 – Mark Cuban – Billionaire NFT Collections
Mark Cuban, a billionaire investor and owner of the Dallas Mavericks, as well as a star of the show “Shark Tank,” reportedly received his Bored Ape NFT as a gift in May, according to The Bored Ape Gazette. Despite the rapidly increasing value of the NFT, Cuban has kept it and even showcased it on his Lazy.com NFT gallery profile. He is a staunch supporter of Dogecoin and has invested in several NFT and cryptocurrency-related businesses.
#3 – Lakshmi – Upcoming Artist’s NFT Collections
Lakshmi Manchu, an actor and producer who has worked in both Telugu cinema and American television, recently joined the world of NFTs. In January, she made her first NFT purchase by buying Azuki #4272 for 3.3 ETH, which was approximately equivalent to 10k dollars.
In a statement, Lakshmi expressed her nervousness about being new to the NFT space, but also mentioned her excitement for her new character. She also shared that she plans to use the ownership of the Azuki NFT to gain exclusive rights to content that can later be opened up for audiences who own Azukis. This will be available in the form of games, short stories, and other digital assets. It is exciting to see all the possibilities that NFTs offer to creators.
#4 – LilBaby
LilBaby has joined the NFT market, following the footsteps of popular celebrities such as Snoop Dogg and Jay-Z. The American rapper has substantial popularity, with over 26 million monthly streams on Spotify and close to 19 million followers on Instagram.
In the fall, LilBaby became a Bored Ape NFT owner by mutating a Bored Ape #129 into a Mutant Ape #10259, which was purchased for 37.99 ETH, equivalent to $170,000 at the time of purchase.
In addition to being a celeb Bored Ape NFT owner, LilBaby has 23 recorded NFT purchases, including those from Crypto Cannabis Club, Doodles, DeadFellaz, and Little Lemon Friends.

Pranksy is said to have the largest NFT collection on the planet, boasting about 35,000 NFTs in their OpenSea wallet. In January 2023, Pranksy made a record-breaking purchase of a Doodle NFT for 296.69 ETH, adding to their already impressive collection of 71 Doodles and over 34,000 total NFTs, including popular collections like Decentraland, CryptoKitties, SuperRare, and WomenRise.

They believe that the NFT market provides more than what people expect and has attributed to its growth. Pranksy has also been involved in launching various celebrity NFT projects, including NFTBoxes.
GaryVee and Treeverse are among the celebrities who have also acquired Doodle NFTs.
#6 – KSI
YouTube celebrity and rapper KSI quickly became immersed in the world of NFTs. He purchased his first NFTs in August and within two days, he established a Twitter account (@ksicrypto) specifically for NFTs and boasted about the appreciation in value of his Bored Ape NFT. He was joined in his NFT journey by Banks, a fellow NFT enthusiast and co-founder of the well-known esports organization, FaZe Clan.
#7 – Yam Karaki
The NFT market is widely recognized as being male-dominated, with male buyers making up around 80% of all NFT sales. In an effort to promote gender equality, Yam Karaki created the World of Women NFT collection. In October, Reese Witherspoon joined the initiative by buying World of Women #8072 for 2.8 ETH, or approximately $9,000.
Reese’s NFT collection includes 108 NFTs across various projects, and she is one of the most active celebrities in the NFT space. A few months ago, she announced her partnership with World of Women through her company, Hello Sunshine. The company aims to create a character universe and move into media production, including feature films and TV series. They will also host live events to educate women on the opportunities in the NFT arena.
Reese commented on the partnership, saying “We’re proud to partner with WoW to expand their universe of characters and to develop innovative scripted and unscripted content. We look forward to engaging with the remarkable WoW community at every step of this partnership and creating opportunities for WoW holders to work collaboratively with Hello Sunshine on transforming the WoW art into powerful stories.”
With NFT celebrity owners such as Reese Witherspoon, there is a lot of potential for the World of Women NFT project. Other celebrities who own a World of Women NFT include FaZe Banks, Huda Kattan, Shonda Rhimes, and Sebastien Borget.
#8 – Marshmello
Marshmello, the renowned electronic music producer and DJ, is one of the most prominent celebrity NFT owners with several NFTs in his collection. Christopher Comstock, the artist behind Marshmello, gained recognition in 2015 and has many hit songs with over a billion views on YouTube.
For a while, Marshmello was a secret NFT collector, but he revealed his love for NFTs when he changed his Twitter profile picture to a CryptoPunk. In October 2021, he added a KaijuKing NFT to his portfolio, which is estimated to be worth over $1 million.
The KaijuKing #1680, which he bought for 5.88 ETH (equivalent to $17,000 today), is one of the 3,333 NFTs in the collection. Besides the KaijuKing, Marshmello is also a proud owner of Bored Ape NFTs, CrypToadz, Wicked Craniums, and other CryptoPunks. His most valuable NFT is said to be the CryptoPunk #8274, which was sold for a stunning $427,000.
Punks NFTs, both regular and celebrity-owned, have a trendy reputation in the NFT community due to their retro pixellated art style. This style, first created by Larva Labs and later acquired by Yuga Labs, is considered as one of the “OG” NFT collections and has a cult following.
For Marshmello, it’s not just the art of NFTs that interests him, but also the community aspect. He stated in a tweet, “This is my favorite thing about NFTs. A lot of awesome fan art being made.”
#9 – The Chainsmokers
The music producing duo The Chainsmokers, who are also involved in the cryptocurrency industry, invested in startups and purchased a Bored Ape NFT in September at a cost of approximately $210,000. Although they are currently on a break and haven’t tweeted since early 2020, they recently updated their Twitter profile picture to the Bored Ape NFT.
#10 – Heidi Klum
Heidi Klum, a renowned supermodel, producer, and television host best known for her role on America’s Got Talent, has joined the world of NFTs with the acquisition of a CryptoPunk. In December of last year, she purchased CryptoPunk #3653 for 80 ETH, which amounts to $260,000.
Despite being traded multiple times, the NFT has found a permanent home in Heidi’s collection. The NFT bears a striking resemblance to the actress, especially in its blonde hair. Heidi also owns 8 other NFTs and the heidiklumofficial.eth ENS domain, according to DappRadar.
Heidi expressed her gratitude for the support of the NFT community on Twitter, saying, “I’m super appreciative of the support within the NFT community. I never expected this type of support and I cannot wait to learn more.”
Other celebrities who have purchased CryptoPunks include Jay-Z, Serena Williams, Jason Derulo, Faze Banks, and Logan Paul.
Celebrity NFT collections are a new trend in the art world, where famous individuals are selling unique digital assets in the form of non-fungible tokens. With celebrities like Grimes, Paris Hilton, and Kings of Leon joining the NFT craze, it’s a clear indication that the world of NFTs is evolving and becoming more mainstream.

I GOT ANTS IN MY PANTS
I got ants in my pants and I need to dance. Today shall be proclaimed International Funk Day. It is the birthday anniversary of the ‘Godfather of Soul’. James Brown was born May 3 1933. ‘Soul Brother No. 1’ has been gone for several years now but his music lives on. Turn up the music and “Get Down”, “Jump Up”, “Get on the Good foot” and let’s get Funky! “I Feel Good” and just wanted to share this special day with you.
