And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

Movies to Watch: Footloose (First Official Full-length Trailer)

FOOTLOOSE MOVIE POSTER
The trailer is finally here, and if you have not seen the original movie, the re-boot pretty much remains true to the original, even going so far as to including Ren's yellow Volkswagen and famous red tuxedo.  "We pay homage to the original but it's definitely a new, updated version of it," Kenny told MTV News. "We all were big fans of the original. We keep the heart of the story there, but it's updated."

julianne-houghIn a quick synopsis, a city boy (Ren) moves to a small town where no one is allowed to dance, nor hear rock music for that matter.  He falls in love with Ariel who happens to have a very jealous boyfriend, and a Bible-thumping father.  Ren pretty much tries to lead the dispassionate teenagers into a rebellion against the town.  I won't go any further, but it is a fun movie to watch - at least the original was.  We'll see how this one turns out.

I don't know. Sure, he's hot and all but I think while trying to update it as well as pay homage to the original that the movie will just get lost and convoluted. Only the people who remember Footloose might go see this if the "updates" don't frighten them off too. Great reviews and word of mouth are the only thing that could save this movie.
