INTERVIEW magazine looks great again. The inimitable Glenn O’Brien–he was the original editor–is back helming, along w/ brilliant visualist, Fabien Baron.
Yes, the collectable Jonas Bros. issue of People hits the stands. I didn’t know one of the bros was the beau of Miley Cyrus… Think it was a made-up crush? Notice hairdos are again so important to pop music? Take the bros, pete wentz, & david cook, for example.
Also hard to take: 50-yr-olds, Madonna, & Sharon Stone, flashing at the Cannes Film Fest. Desperate for publicity or just exhibitionists ? Both of them know the French papparazzi can’t get enuff them….Some dignity,pls?
Rev. Jeremiah Wright is harming the campaign of Barack Obama–to me clearly the best person for the Presidency–in ways that now smack of set-up. After Wright’s outrageous “performances” at the NAACP and Natl. Press Club, that’s all I can think. It was so sad to see Obama and his wife face the rabid press corp. after Rev. Wright’s appearances. I can only hope that Obama does well tomorrow in Ind. & NC.
Speaking of organized religion, Bill Maher has a movie coming out soon that takes on that subject. I guess it will be in the Michael Moore-style.
