BEYOND THE CANDELABRA

besides being the best film since ~ SHOWGIRLS~ BEHIND THE CANDELABRA has some great performances by matt damon, michael douglas, an unrecognizable DEBBIE REYNOLDS,

 dan akroyd and instant cult classic~ ROB LOWE as surgery queen~dr. jack starz

one part that was omitted from the film was Scott Thorson's claim he had an affair with Michael Jackson back in the early 80s.

Thorson had said he and Jackson had an intimate relationship shortly before the King of Pop's seminal "Thriller" album debuted.

"Michael and I had a relationship that...would cross the boundaries," Thorson, 54, revealed in an exclusive interview with Entertainment Tonight's Christina McLarty. When McLarty asked if the relationship had ever been sexual, Thorson added, "That's about all I'm comfortable in saying. We were both young, we both liked each other, we had a lot of fun. We went all over Europe together. Michael was my best friend, I was his best friend."

REGGIE LOVE

Reggie Love (born April 29, 1982) served as the special assistant and personal aide, commonly referred to as "BODY MAN" for "taking care of the president's needs", to United States President Barack Obama.

Love applied for an internship on Capitol Hill in 2006. He was interviewed by Robert Gibbs, Obama’s communications director, for a position in Obama's Senate office. He was hired with the title "deputy political director". He became Obama's personal assistant in 2007, during the 2008 presidential race.

Love and Obama played basketball every day there was a primary during the 2008 presidential election,

 and they played regularly in the ensuing years, always on the same side.^]

 As Obama's aide, his job was to anticipate any and all of Obama's needs. In reference to the myriad support duties Love performs, President Obama has referred to Love as his "iReggie", a play on Apple's iPad 

(“I have an iReggie, who has my books, my newspapers, my music all in one place.”).

Love says he spent so much time by the president's side that he witnessed many personal moments.

"If he had it his way, I think he'd floss in private," he says. "I think the fact that he was comfortable with me is probably a product of, you know, he's beaten down. I've been around for so long."

Love says Obama is "like a big brother" to him, and he sought his advice about the emotional decision to go back to school. ("He was very supportive.") When pressed to describe the president's annoying habits, Love tells ABC that Obama's aversion to air conditioning made some of their long car rides together uncomfortable.

"The thing that used to kill me is that the guy loves to ride around with the AC off in the summertime," Love says. "And I get hot. I start sweating. And I'm like, it's 80 degrees in this car. I'm going to pass out."

Love left this position at the end of 2011, to complete his Master of Business Administration degree at the University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School.
in other words..... the DL couldn't continue.

Winnipeg- that mythical town on the Canadian frontier - Manitoba-

Winnipeg has produced an inordinately fecund cultural milieu with artists experimenting in all media.

Manitoba was the first predominantly english speaking province to legislatively protect queer rights in 1987. With North America's first out gay mayor elected in the 1990's, Winnipeg cemented its reputation as a radical city that emerged from the Red River uprising of Louis Riel in 1869. Modern day Winnipeg is the coldest city on earth - with the largest per-capita Native population in Canada and a reputation as the murder and child poverty capital of the country.

WinniPig the exhibition takes its name from a performance by Lydia Lunch at the Plug In Institute of Contemporary Art in 1987. An audience member heckled that she was the Queen of Winnipeg, to which she replied: "I'm not the Queen of Winnipeg, I'm the Queen of WinniPig!"

Curated by artist/filmmaker Noam Gonick, with assistance from Wayne Baerwaldt, the show includes artists from Winnipeg (and former Winnipeggers)...
