I wanted to share a wonderful speech by my friend Maria Shriver from her daughter's graduation from my alma mater, USC. There is wonderful wisdom in her words. She is right that all too often in our own lives we are not living in the moment, always for something tomorrow, next week or next year.
Tuesday night May 15, I attend the POSH Affair Benefit Gala at the Pierre Hotel in NYC, hosted by Vogue magazine's Hamish Bowles along with Amy Fine Collins and Lorry Newhouse.
I wanted to know more about what motivates Jon to play an important role in helping homeless youth -- his concern for them goes back more than three decades when, inspired by our New York City shelter, he wrote "Runaway," his first hit.
Our political leaders have calculated that the American people are not interested in foreign policy in this election year. By walking, we're announcing to our leaders loudly and clearly that they are wrong.
I finally had a moment to digest this sad news. I'd been humming "On the Radio" all day long, half-expecting others to join in. The late day sun filtered down, and I could feel tears springing to my eyes.
I'm sick of the low blows, the kidney punches, and the shots after the bell and on the breaks. I'm sick of all the trash talking. From Vanity Fair, The Today Show and The View just to name a few.
All she asked "is that you dance with me," and dance we did. Donna Summer, the voice of an era, gone at 63.
Her show Bitchin Kitchen has helped change stereotypes of those who love spending time in the kitchen. She's often referred to as the Julia Child of the Net generation.
More than any other performer of the mid-70s through the 80s, Donna Summer's recordings pushed the envelope of dance music.
The Food Revolution and Food Revolution Day is about empowering people through education or, frankly, just inspiring people to be more street-wise about food, where it comes from and how it affects their bodies.
Most of the fun of watching Ali G and, later, Borat and Bruno, was wondering what outrageous stunt Cohen would pull next. If audiences don't think Cohen could possibly top his previous antics, does that take the fun out of the whole thing?
In Lifetime's Client List, the portrayal of prostitution as rewarding and honorable is a stark departure from a reality in which prostitutes overwhelmingly don't find their work glamorous.
Award winning actor and writer Cyril Nri and I are cogitating thus because an actor we know, one decorated by Her Majesty for services to British acting and star of a hit U.S. series, has had his remarks, regarding slim-pickings for black actors, turned into this broadsheet headline, "David Harewood: as a black actor there are very few roles for me in Britain."
I caught up with Ed and one of his best college friends, Abby Sigal, over coffee to discuss something near and dear to both of their hearts and minds: affordable housing.
Brace yourself, folks. Battleship is not as bad as you've heard. It's not cerebral, the plot is nonsensical at times, and yes, the basic laws of physics are violated in almost every frame, but it's a summer blockbuster, tried and true. (Think Armageddon.)
Marilu Henner, who many remember as the character Elaine on the sitcom Taxi, is the author of Total Memory Makeover: Uncover Your Past, Take Charge of Your Future. She is one of only 12 documented cases of Highly Superior Autobiographical Memory, or HSAM.
Behold: the cerulean sparkle of the Cote d'Azur, the endless waft of chain-smoked Gitanes over the Croisette, the private yachts. Cannes. And its megaton line-up has arched the eyebrow of even the most indifferent cineastes this year.
Have you ever wondered how films transport the moviegoer to another place in time? No graphic enhancements needed, just a great prop master.
