On August 6, Burt Reynolds will receive the 2009 Safe Home Equine Protection Award. It's being given to him for his protection of the wild and domestic horses in America and his opposition to horse slaughter.
Read more...I heard a paper in Thailand, Thai Rath, published a David Carradine death photo. What? Why would anybody do this?
I write several blogs but never would I publish a photo like that. A few weeks ago, there was a photo of a girl who'd died in a car accident published elsewhere that had everybody panting over seeing it. The reports were that some sicko had even sent it to this girl's family. I don't get that. I find in disgusting.
He died (for whatever reason, he's gone). Let the family get through their investigation and grieve in peace now.
Rumors swirled when David Carradine was found dead in his hotel room...first it was suicide which was unbelievable according to those close to him, then accidental death (by auto-erotic asphyxiation) or murder. I'm thinking if the rumors are true, it is the second one which is a really sad way for a well-known, long-time actor to be remembered.
Reports are saying that he was not alone in his hotel room at the time of his death but who was with him has been withheld. True? Don't know.
According to Wikipedia:
"Erotic asphyxiation refers to intentionally cutting off oxygen to the brain for sexual arousal. It is also called asphyxiophilia, autoerotic asphyxia, scarfing, kotzwarraism, or breath control play. Colloquially, a person engaging in the activity is sometimes called a gasper. The erotic interest in asphyxiation is classified as a paraphilia in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of the American Psychiatric Association. Psychiatrist Joseph Merlino stated that it meets the criteria for a disorder "because it has the potential for lethality or serious injury."
You might remember, Michael Hutchence, lead singer of INXS, was also rumored to have died this way.
My thoughts go out to David Carradine's family regardless of the final report on how he passed away. With over 100 feature films behind him, he should be remembered for his lifetime of work, not his last day.
Celebrities seemed to have cleared the way for wearing a swimsuit while pregnant. When I was pregnant, I never saw pregnant women in maternity suits. In fact, I never even took a picture of my bare pregnant belly! Now I see them everywhere posing in their proud pregnant state or just lifting their top for a quick picture to keep. I've watched my younger sisters post their baby bump pictures in a maternity suit on Facebook!
Take, for instance, Tori Spelling posing with the obvious baby bump in several different bikinis in magazines recently. She seems very proud of her maternal body, like a lot of other celebrities who choose to pose in a maternity swimsuit (or less if you are Demi Moore who paved the way for it years ago).
Oh. My. Gosh. I don't know what else to say. I'm speechless.
