James Franco's Self Love

It's Better With A Friend
Keegan Allen & James Franco

"When I think about you I touch myself" - 

I Touch Myself, Divinyls 

Fact: Celebrities have sex too, as if you didn't already know that. Sometimes they have it with others and sometimes they are so busy that they only have time for some self love.

Judging from James Franco's comments regarding the subject matter I am guessing he's fly's solo more than playing well with others. "Yes" moments in bed with the likes of Keegan Allen of Pretty Little Liars fame are far and few between for James and his Franco. 

Here is what he has to say about how he let's go:

"It's like you have those days where it's just like, I have a ton of writing to do, or a ton of reading to do, and you're just like, okay, I'm going to be on the couch all day or in bed all day just doing that."

Get it? Got It? Good...Now you have the image of Franco going to his happy place lodged in your brain with no chance of banishment.

Chill out, as James would say "Relax!"

"Father Figure" George Michael

Daddy
George Michael

It's the day after Christmas and I am sure a majority of you, like me, are saddened by the passing of pop icon George Michael, on, well of all things Christmas Day.

He was truly one of the greatest musical artists of all time, not to mention he was also quite ahead of it as well.

George was a Father Figure of sorts to up and coming performers looking for someone to emulate. Which happens to be my favorite song by Mr. Michael, for it's daring to touch a certain subject matter that most artists wouldn't ever dream of going near, especially in this day and age of mediocrity.

I could go on and on about this unique, one of a kind, legendary talent, but what's the point?  Every one of you has your own feelings and impressions of what he meant to your lives. This post is done to honor an individual whose influence on the world around them was truly epic.

Thus I leave you with my favorite George Michael song Father Figure. 

R.I.P.

Keira Knightley Hits Back At Domestic Violence

Keira Knightley

I know this PSA by the lovely and talented Ms. Keira Knightley is not new, it was done around the time Chris Brown beat up Rhianna, but it is powerful and the subject matter bears to be kept in our consciousness.

Ms Knightley had this to say about the PSA against domestic violence when she did it:

"I wanted to take place in this advert for Women's Aid because while domestic violence exists in every section of society, we rarely hear about it," Knightley said. "We may not think we know someone who has experienced domestic violence, but this does not mean that it is not happening."

Here are the facts:

• 1 in 4 women has experienced domestic violence in her lifetime
• Nearly 3 out of 4 Americans personally know someone who is or has been a victim of domestic violence.
• On average, more than three women and one man are murdered by their intimate partners in this country every day.

Here is the PSA. Heads Up, very strong violent content, but very effective.
