“If you can’t love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else?” - RuPaul - - - - - - - - - - - “if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal.” - John F.

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 - - - - - - - - - - -

Must Watch: Christian Dior Brings Back Marlene Dietrich, Grace Kelly and Marilyn Monroe

I saw this really cool video a few days before Ryan and I left for our vacation and didn't get to blog about it.  Well, there's no time like the present. 
The very beautiful Charlize Theron was recently featured in a Christian Dior ad with some very popular leading ladies from the past - Marlene Dietrich, Grace Kelly, and the gorgeous Marilyn Monroe.

I think it's absolutely amazing that with today's technology we can bring back people from the past, at least through film.  And I'd have to commend the producer for adding Beth Ditto to the ad, her voice was a great accompaniment.

Stunning Photo of Michelle Williams as Marilyn Monroe

Honestly, many people have tried and failed, but I'm having second thoughts about Michelle Williams' portrayal of Marilyn Monroe.  After looking at this promotional image, I might've got it all wrong.
Based on two books by Colin Clark, it depicts the making of the 1957 film The Prince and the Showgirl, which starred Marilyn Monroe and Laurence Olivier. The film focuses on the week in which Monroe spent time being escorted around Britain by Clark, after her husband, Arthur Miller, left the country. - Wikipedia

I Quote That - Crazy

I love this quote by Marilyn Monroe so much that I couldn't find a title for it.  I think "Crazy" would suffice, wouldn't you say?
