Ed Harris, Amy Madigan go South in Beth Henley’s ‘The Jacksonian’
Feb 12th
The actors star as a separated couple in 1964 Jackson, Miss., in the world premiere at Geffen Playhouse. The late Robert Altman, while he was making a movie of Sam Shepard’s play “Fool for Love,” tried to describe the piece to a reporter. “I’m not going to synopsize it,” the director said. “It’s not a story, and it’s not an idea. It’s a painting. It’s about a place, it’s about a culture, a time, relationships, people’s awareness or unawareness of their own history.”

Miley Cyrus in Gay Rights Tattoo Controversy
Feb 6th
You’ve heard of Miley Cyrus right? Originally famous for her Disney Channel show Hannah Montana she is now a “much loved” actress and pop singer in the US. Well apparently she’s gone and got herself into a bit of controversy due to a tattoo she’s had inked on her middle finger. Although the tat is said to have been completed back in August last year it is only recently that the 19 year old Disney star has really commented on her tattoo and received a bit of backlash. Gay Rights Miley’s tattoo is said to be in support of gay marriage which she is strongly for. In fact in a recent interview she told Glamour Magazine that it makes her feel “sick to her stomach” that same sex couples can be completely in love but yet are not allowed to show that love to their friends and family in the same way that heterosexual couples are – via marriage. Although Miley herself hasn’t actually “come out” as a lesbian, many people have questioned her sexuality in the past. Controversy The criticism for Miley’s tattoo has mainly come from Christian groups who strongly oppose gay marriage. Miley herself has said that she has received much hate mail and comments in recent weeks asking her what happened as she used to be “such a good Christian girl”. Miley proudly stood up to her haters, telling them that she IS a Christian and that Christianity is about love. She dismissed the threats saying that although she has received them she finds them out of order. Miley has publically said that she does not understand why things need to get so heated “Can’t I have a debate about a sensitive topic without it growing into a threat”? Miley also asked other groups to consider their way of thinking towards gay marriage. She said that her dad “who is a true man’s man and is as straight as they come” is all for gay marriage and loves her gay friends. She claims that there is no difference between racism and sexism and says that every United States citizen should be allowed to have the same liberties and civil rights. Is it Personal? Miley’s tattoo has received a lot of criticism as well as a lot of praise, but did she have the tattoo done for personal reasons? Whilst Miley hasn’t shed any light on the subject herself she has been linked with a few girls in recent years including back in 2008 when photos of her and a friend “almost kissing” were leaked from her private MySpace account. Miley’s comment at the time was that it was “no big deal” but it does make us wonder whether her recent tattoo is more personal than she is letting on. Either way we think she’s been a great role model and we totally respect her confident stance on such a controversial topic. She has stuck firmly to her values and been brave enough to share them with the world. Go Miley!

Ri and Her “Thug Life” Knuckles
Feb 3rd
She is a wealthy superstar with millions and a following too large to count. With 20 million albums and 60 million singles, four Grammy awards, five American Music awards and eighteen Billboard Music Awards under her belt, she is one of the best selling artists of all time. She is Barbados’s native, Rihanna. Even with all this, it appears as if there is one thing that this young superstar did not have, at least until recently. A tattoo of the words “Thug Life” etched on her oh so feminine knuckles. We saw it, along with millions of others in her tweet. Sporting a John Lennon T-shirt, and looking proud, Ri displayed her knuckles for us all to see. Is it Authentic or a Fake? The jury is still out as to whether or not the rock superstar Rihanna’s new tattoo is real or an exceptionally keen imposter. The tattoo, created by tattoo artist BangBang is apparently in honor of the late slain rapper Tupac Shakur, who had the same words imprinted on his stomach. Bold and bright, this tattoo or tattoo look-a-like, is a truly strong pink statement. Some say that this cannot possibly be real but who knows for sure. Eye Witness There may be an eyewitness who could speak to the authenticity of Rihanna’s latest work of art. Apparently, Machetestar Danny Trejo happened to be in the tattoo parlor when Ri was getting her new tattoo. He noted: “[She] didn’t stop saying thug life the whole time she was getting it done. [She is] one of the downest female thugs in the world. If I was 40 years younger she would be in a lot of trouble.” Tattoos Here, There, Everywhere Rihanna is no beginner when it comes to body ink. With fifteen other inked designs on her body, we would not put it past this tattoo loving diva to do such a thing. After all, she rocked her followers in when she proudly displayed her ribcage inked with a gun in 2009. This followed shortly on the heels of her public fiasco with her ex Chris Brown. The superstar’s hip also bears a Sanatana Dharma Sanskrit prayer, a musical note charms her ankle, and the word “love” is on her middle finger. She has a tribal tattoo on her hand and a Pisces symbol hiding behind her right ear. Tattoo master designer BangBang gets the credit for star tattoos on her back, and the word “Shhh” on her finger. She even pays tribute to her line or perfume with her neck tattoo “rebelle fleu,” meaning rebellious flower. As if this were not enough, Ri also sports star tats in her ear, an Arabic phrase on her ribcage and an anklebone inking of a skull and cross bones. Time Will Tell But who knows for sure about the authenticity of her latest design, more pictures and time are needed to confirm. Anyway, it has people talking, people watching and people guessing. Maybe that is what this is all about. Sometimes it just gets too quiet!

Cheryl Cole ”Finally” Wants it Gone
Jan 30th
Here we go again… English pop and R&B recording artist, Cheryl Cole married England and Chelsea footballer Ashley Cole in 2006. The marriage, marred by reports of Ashley’s infidelity, ended in September of 2010. During their marriage, Cheryl acquired a rather large tattoo on the back of her neck with the words “Mrs. C”. Since reports of her husband’s extramarital follies, Cheryl has publicly voiced that she desires to have the inked tribute to her ex-husband removed from her neck. All Talk No Action Cole has been talking about removing the tattoo for an exceedingly long time now. Really, it is old news that keeps getting circulated to the top again. The removal process involves laser treatment to have the ink removed from her neck. Some are saying that she may opt to have the tattoo redesigned instead of having a “full” removal. Friends and insiders report that Cheryl does regret ever having the tattoo and now understands the true meaning of permanency. Although she understands that the laser treatments are painful and time consuming, Cheryl reports that she wants no memory of her cheating ex left behind as a painful reminder of what she went through. We will believe the removal when we see it. Seems like if she truly wanted it gone it would have been gone by now. Schedule Gap… Are You Kidding? We all know that Cole has a busy schedule, what with her new album set for release in March and a budding film career. Perhaps the tattoo removal has not yet made it to the top of the priority list for this popular princess. There are also rumors of this singer, actress and model launching her very own talk show. Sources state that removal is slated for the first gap in her schedule. We don’t see a gap coming any time soon for this ever so popular gal, who has also been working with Simon Cowell on a potentially new talent show. Moving On Since the split from Ashley, Cole has made the rounds but has not yet settled down into anything long-term. Insiders state that Cole wants to focus on her career, not her love life. Cheryl has supposedly dated a 25-year-old ‘Dancing with the Stars’ pro who helped her through her divorce. Reports also linked Cole to Black Eyed Peas buddy Will.i.am, her co-judge on X Factor, Simon Cowell and singer Taio Cruz. Her latest sweetheart appears to be 21-year-old Patrizio Pigliapoco who is the driving force behind Cole’s American success. The two have become close since Cole has spent a considerable amount of the time in the states working on her next new solo project. There have been many late night recording sessions with Patrizio in Los Angeles and the two are said to have become inseparable. Patrizio has commented that he sees no way that any man could ever cheat on Cole, as she is so incredibly beautiful and awesomely talented. So While it appears as though there is no evidence of a reunion with ex Ashley Cole, Cheryl is not exactly speeding to remove his mark from her neck. Perhaps it is a sign of something to come, or maybe just a time factor? We will have to wait and see.
