I guess I'll put this here. I don't know if he's got enough of a national
profile to put it in Late>, but he deserves to be remembered.

Joe Thompson died Monday. He was 93, and died of natural causes.

You may not know him, but he was a nationally-renowned fiddler from Mebane, NC,

Whitney Houston, superstar of records, films, dies






By NEKESA MUMBI MOODY
AP Music Writer
Published: Saturday, Feb. 11, 2012 - 5:08 pm
Last Modified: Saturday, Feb. 11, 2012 - 5:51 pm
LOS ANGELES -- Whitney Houston, who reigned as pop music's queen until her
majestic voice and regal image were ravaged by drug use, erratic behavior and a
tumultuous marriage to singer Bobby Brown, has died. She was 48.
Publicist Kristen Foster said Saturday that the singer had died, but the cause
and the location of her death were unknown.
At her peak, Houston the golden girl of the music industry. From the middle
1980s to the late 1990s, she was one of the world's best-selling artists. She
wowed audiences with effortless, powerful, and peerless vocals that were rooted
in the black church but made palatable to the masses with a pop sheen.
Her success carried her beyond music to movies, where she starred in hits like
"The Bodyguard" and "Waiting to Exhale."
She had the he perfect voice, and the perfect image: a gorgeous singer who had
sex appeal but was never overtly sexual, who maintained perfect poise.
She influenced a generation of younger singers, from Christina Aguilera to
Mariah Carey, who when she first came out sounded so much like Houston that
many thought it was Houston.
But by the end of her career, Houston became a stunning cautionary tale of the
toll of drug use. Her album sales plummeted and the hits stopped coming; her
once serene image was shattered by a wild demeanor and bizarre public
appearances. She confessed to abusing cocaine, marijuana and pills, and her
once pristine voice became raspy and hoarse, unable to hit the high notes as
she had during her prime.
"The biggest devil is me. I'm either my best friend or my worst enemy," Houston
told ABC's Diane Sawyer in an infamous 2002 interview with then-husband Brown
by her side.
It was a tragic fall for a superstar who was one of the top-selling artists in
pop music history, with more than 55 million records sold in the United States
alone.
She seemed to be born into greatness. She was the daughter of gospel singer
Cissy Houston, the cousin of 1960s pop diva Dionne Warwick and the goddaughter
of Aretha Franklin.
Houston first started singing in the church as a child. In her teens, she sang
backup for Chaka Khan, Jermaine Jackson and others, in addition to modeling. It
was around that time when music mogul Clive Davis first heard Houston perform.
"The time that I first saw her singing in her mother's act in a club ... it was
such a stunning impact," Davis told "Good Morning America."
"To hear this young girl breathe such fire into this song. I mean, it really
sent the proverbial tingles up my spine," he added.
Before long, the rest of the country would feel it, too. Houston made her album
debut in 1985 with "Whitney Houston," which sold millions and spawned hit after
hit. "Saving All My Love for You" brought her her first Grammy, for best female
pop vocal. "How Will I Know," "You Give Good Love" and "The Greatest Love of
All" also became hit singles.
Another multiplatinum album, "Whitney," came out in 1987 and included hits like
"Where Do Broken Hearts Go" and "I Wanna Dance With Somebody."
The New York Times wrote that Houston "possesses one of her generation's most
powerful gospel-trained voices, but she eschews many of the churchier
mannerisms of her forerunners. She uses ornamental gospel phrasing only
sparingly, and instead of projecting an earthy, tearful vulnerability,
communicates cool self-assurance and strength, building pop ballads to
majestic, sustained peaks of intensity."
Her decision not to follow the more soulful inflections of singers like
Franklin drew criticism by some who saw her as playing down her black roots to
go pop and reach white audiences. The criticism would become a constant refrain
through much of her career. She was even booed during the "Soul Train Awards"
in 1989.
"Sometimes it gets down to that, you know?" she told Katie Couric in 1996.
"You're not black enough for them. I don't know. You're not R&B enough. You're
very pop. The white audience has taken you away from them."
Some saw her 1992 marriage to former New Edition member and soul crooner Bobby
Brown as an attempt to refute those critics. It seemed to be an odd union; she
was seen as pop's pure princess while he had a bad-boy image, and already had
children of his own. (The couple had a daughter, Bobbi Kristina, in 1993.) Over
the years, he would be arrested several times, on charges ranging from DUI to
failure to pay child support.
But Houston said their true personalities were not as far apart as people may
have believed.
"When you love, you love. I mean, do you stop loving somebody because you have
different images? You know, Bobby and I basically come from the same place,"
she told Rolling Stone in 1993. "You see somebody, and you deal with their
image, that's their image. It's part of them, it's not the whole picture. I am
not always in a sequined gown. I am nobody's angel. I can get down and dirty. I
can get raunchy."
It would take several years, however, for the public to see that side of
Houston. Her moving 1991 rendition of "The Star Spangled Banner" at the Super
Bowl, amid the first Gulf War, set a new standard and once again reaffirmed her
as America's sweetheart.
In 1992, she became a star in the acting world with "The Bodyguard." Despite
mixed reviews, the story of a singer (Houston) guarded by a former Secret
Service agent (Kevin Costner) was an international success.
It also gave her perhaps her most memorable hit: a searing, stunning rendition
of Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You," which sat atop the charts for
weeks. It was Grammy's record of the year and best female pop vocal, and the
"Bodyguard" soundtrack was named album of the year.
She returned to the big screen in 1995-96 with "Waiting to Exhale" and "The
Preacher's Wife." Both spawned soundtrack albums, and another hit studio album,
"My Love Is Your Love," in 1998, brought her a Grammy for best female R&B vocal
for the cut "It's Not Right But It's Okay."
But during these career and personal highs, Houston was using drugs. In an
interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2010, she said by the time "The Preacher's
Wife" was released, "(doing drugs) was an everyday thing. ... I would do my
work, but after I did my work, for a whole year or two, it was every day. ... I
wasn't happy by that point in time. I was losing myself."
In the interview, Houston blamed her rocky marriage to Brown, which included a
charge of domestic abuse against Brown in 1993. They divorced in 2007.
Houston would go to rehab twice before she would declare herself drug-free to
Winfrey in 2010. But in the interim, there were missed concert dates, a stop at
an airport due to drugs, and public meltdowns.
She was so startlingly thin during a 2001 Michael Jackson tribute concert that
rumors spread she had died the next day. Her crude behavior and jittery
appearance on Brown's reality show, "Being Bobby Brown," was an example of her
sad decline. Her Sawyer interview, where she declared "crack is whack," was
often parodied. She dropped out of the spotlight for a few years.
Houston staged what seemed to be a successful comeback with the 2009 album "I
Look To You." The album debuted on the top of the charts, and would eventually
go platinum.
Things soon fell apart. A concert to promote the album on "Good Morning
America" went awry as Houston's voice sounded ragged and off-key. She blamed an
interview with Winfrey for straining her voice.
A world tour launched overseas, however, only confirmed suspicions that Houston
had lost her treasured gift, as she failed to hit notes and left many fans
unimpressed; some walked out. Canceled concert dates raised speculation that
she may have been abusing drugs, but she denied those claims and said she was
in great shape, blaming illness for cancellations.

Perry did not sign a prenuptial agreement. And since the two were married in
California, he would, according to state law, be entitled a 50/50 split of the
couple's earnings, even after just 14 months of marriage.

Nice work if you can get it."

Okracoke@rss.iscabbs.com — Sat, 10 Dec 2011 12:10:00 -0600

Lindsay Lohan.s baring it all in the upcoming issue of .Playboy..

The troubled starlet does her best to channel the old Hollywood glamor of
Marilyn Monroe in the much anticipated January/February double issue of
"Playboy," available early in digital form at iPlayboy online.

Wearing nothing but a pair of sky-high black stilettos, red lips and a tangle
of platinum blonde curls, Lohan poses nude in the 10-page pictorial, recreating
the iconic movie star's original spread for the magazine shot in 1953 by Tom
Kelley.

But the retro spread isn't the only thing about Lohan that's revealing. Inside
the magazine she also opens up about her sex appeal, the paparazzi's obsession
with her, and what she would have done differently growing up in the spotlight.

When asked what she's learned over the past five years, Lohan, 25, replied
"that ultimately, we are each responsible for ourselves and for our actions."

"Looking back, I probably would have listened to and taken more advice from the
people whom I admire and would have followed through with it more," she said.
"My stubbornness at 18 and 19 years old got in the way," she added. "During the
last five years, I've learned that time flies faster than you think, and
because you only live once you have to learn from your mistakes, live your
dreams and be accountable."

The actress says when it comes to being sexy, confidence is key.

"Sex and sexuality are a part of nature, and I go along with nature," she said.
"I think Marilyn Monroe once said that. I certainly agree with her...Knowing
yourself and your body is so important because it gives you confidence, and in
life, women need confidence. It's a very male-dominated world to begin with, so
knowing yourself and being comfortable with your body is an important thing for
me as a woman."

As for constantly being hounded by the paparazzi?

"I have no idea why there is this fascination with everything I do," she said.
"I suppose it is all part of this trend of people wanting to know every single
detail of a celebrity's life. I mean, once we get to the point where magazines
are doing pictorials on my wardrobe to court, that's just so unimportant."

A leaked image of the cover, which shows a seemingly nude Lohan straddling a
bunny-shaped chair, flooded the Internet this week more than a week before the
"Mean Girls" star planned to reveal a sneak preview of the shoot on "The Ellen
DeGeneres Show," on Dec. 15.

On Friday, the magazine's mogul Hugh Heffner tweeted he would release the Lohan
issue early after the leaked photos caused a "sensation" online.

"Lindsay Lohan was the top search name on the Internet yesterday," he wrote.
"Her issue goes on sale late next week. Hot. Hot. Hot."

The magazine hits newsstands in hard copy on Friday, Dec. 16.

Kim Kardashian just released a statement defending her marriage, claiming she
married for love, and she's appalled at the rumors circulating the web.  Even
if it were true, it doesn't help her case in not looking like an idiot.

Lindsay Lohan to Be Charged With Felony Grand Theft


A mere month after completing her court-mandated rehab treatment, Lindsay Lohan
could be in legal hot water again.
TMZ reports that Lohan will be charged with felony grand theft for allegedly
stealing a $2,500 necklace from a Venice, California, jewelry store on January
22. Surveillance footage from the store reportedly shows Lohan trying on the
necklace, which she appeared to be wearing in photographs a week later.
After the store owner filed a claim last week, police searched Lohan -- who is
currently still on probation stemming from a DUI arrest -- could receive up to
three years in state prison.
Sources close to the 24-year-old actress, who maintains that the necklace was
on loan to her from the store, say she plans to fight the charges.
