Selena Gomez Covers InStyle US September 2017 Fashion Issue, Lensed By Phil Poynter

Selena Gomez Covers InStyle US September 2017 Fashion Issue, Lensed By Phil Poynter

Pop superstar Selena Gomez covers the September 2017 fashion issue of InStyle US, styled by Kate Young in Miu Miu, Alexander McQueen, Coach 1941, Louis Vuitton, Dolce & Gabbana. Fashion photographer Phil Poynter flashes Gomez, who is interviewed by Laura Brown, who describes Gomez:

Gomez has a particularly potent power: Her celebrity comes not just from what she creates, how she looks, and whom she dates but from how she has suffered and how she has picked herself up. She is not a great advocate of the kind of childhood fame she experienced on the Disney Channel’s Wizards of Waverly Place. “I think it is really dysfunctional to be in this industry at a young age where you’re figuring out who you are. I don’t recommend it.”

Gomez also talks with joy about her adult relationship -- as opposed to being Justin Bieber's fan girl -- with The Weeknd, who has his own celebrity gaggle on the cover of Harper's Bazaar US's September fashion issue.

NYT Writer Bari Weiss Challenges 'Radical' Ideology Of Women's March Quartet

In the midst of our Trump tears, The Women's March mobilized our anger and our anxieties on Jan. 21. Writing for The New York Times, Bari Weiss reminds us of the tremendous unity that seemed to exist among Democrats and progressives on that historic day. 

Four exceptional women — Tamika Mallory, Bob Bland, Carmen Perez and Linda Sarsour — were the faces of the march. All well-known in progressive circles, the quartet was widely praised, writes Weiss.

Miu Miu Highlights Preservation Hall Traditions & Bayous In Alasdair McLellan's Spring 2017.18 Campaign

Miu Miu Highlights Preservation Hall Traditions & Bayous In Alasdair McLellan's Spring 2017.18 Campaign

Miuccia Prada releases her Miu Miu Fall 2017 campaign in full, and it's such a delight! Building on the momentum of a late June teaser:

Miuccia Prada takes her Miu Miu brand to the bayous of New Orleans, mixing  Indian Summer romantic looks with spirited tunes from the Preservation Hall Brass Brand's spirited sounds. Alasdair McLellancaptures actor Naomi Harris and the legendary Kate Moss, sisters Adwoa and Kesewa Aboah, MIssy Rayder, Jean Campbell, Eliza Cummings, Jasmine Daniels, Rose Daniels and Lily Nova feeling the vibe. Stylist Katie Grand chooses kitschy furs and 40s-inspired printed frocks in a Miu Miu Fall 2017 fashion statement 'Daughters of the Dust'.

In today's political climate on both right and left, it's important to understand that Miuccia Prada is not co-opting the colorful Preservation Hall for white people. In fact, there is a long tradition of racial mixing and interaction at Preservation Hall, now a foundation, founded by Philadelphia transplants Allan and Sandra Jaffe in 1961.

Vanity Fair wrote an in-depth look at the history of Preservation Hall in January 2012, the year of its golden anniversary.

Michael Moore Brings Anti-Trump "Terms of My Surrender" to Broadway

Michael Moore Brings Anti-Trump "Terms of My Surrender" to Broadway

"I do not accept living in a country where Donald Trump is president," Michael Moore announced on the stage of the sold-out "The Terms of My Surrender" at the Belasco Theater on Broadway. "And I'm not leaving America," he continued, -- this super-smart, looks-are-deceiving schlump of a man.

Moore's mission is crystal clear. The Oscar-winning filmmaker and bestselling author plans is determined to leverage his Broadway debut to ignite Americans to throw Trump from the Oval Office by his butt. Moore believes that satirists "can bring him (Trump) down with humor, comedy and ridicule - simply because his awfully thin skin just can't take it," Moore said in June.

The first stage of this mission is the one-man play, "The Terms of My Surrender," which debuted in New York over the weekend. It comes as Moore is also working on an anti-Trump documentary, "Fahrenheit 11/9" - a reference to November 9, the day after Trump was elected. 

Even the German press is eagerly watching the debut of Michael Moore on Broadway. I'm thinking that maybe Moore needs to be a foil character on SNL. Speaking only for myself as an ardent Hillary supporter on HWN, Michael Moore has my ear. I find his head to be on very straight, and he feels no need to damn me, as most Berners do.

It's just great that the veteran activist Moore is bringing his one man show to Broadway. Let's hope it's a vehicle for sparking real conversation on the left. ~ Anne
