A review of a great series called Portrait Artist of the Year.

In a week I struggled to find inspiration I found a topic I missed on Bobby Knight and his success and short coming as college basketball coach. Jelly Roll sees success at 39 years old and the "new" artist of the year. I try to weave these into my new motto of "I don't want to get out of bed, but I am happy to be awake". Also a shoutout to Veterans.

Tracy Chapman made history last night at the CMA's becoming the first black songwriter to win Song Of The Year. Jelly Roll kicked off the evenings show and took home New Artist Of The Year. Thirty Seconds To Mars is headed out on their world tour and will be at Huntington Bank Pavilion on August 10th.

The singer-songwriter says he is doing better than he's ever done after the big win

The MTV Video Music Awards are back and for the first time in history, only women are nominated in the show's Artist of the Year category. Taylor Swift, Beyonce, Doja Cat, Nicki Minaj, Karol G, and Shakira are contenders for the night's biggest prize. Well, this morning the VMAs announced its final round of presenters, which include A Boogie Wit da Hoodie, Ashante, Billy Porter, Chloe Bailey, Dove Cameron, Fat Joe, Halle Bailey, Nelly Furtado, Tiffany Haddish, Timberland, and Wyclef Jean. It's going to be a good show. It takes place at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. It will be hosted by Nicki Minaj. Now, last year, she emceed alongside Lil Wayne and Jack Harlow. This year, she is solo. Because, like I said, it is definitely the year of women. Well, the show also will celebrate 50 years of hip hop with a star-studded, multi-generational finale performance. And by the way, Diddy will receive the Global Icon Award and perform at the VMAs for the first time since 2005. He will become the third recipient of the award, following the Red Hot Chili Peppers and the Foo Fighters. It should be, like I said, a great show. Jussie Smollett's drawn-out legal saga has a new chapter. It began this week, as an Illinois appeals court will hear the oral arguments that the former Empire actor's convictions for staging a racist homophobic attack against himself in 2019 and then lying about it to the Chicago police should be just tossed out. If the appeal before the Chicago-based First District Appellate Court fails, Smollett would have to finish his 150-day stint in jail that his trial judge ordered during his 2022 sentencing. Smollett spent six days in jail before his release, pending the outcome of the appeal. There are a lot of things that they are appealing among the long list of arguments in the 76-page written appeal. But the main thing is his lawyers say he has already performed community service and forfeited a $10,000 bond as a part of the 2019 deal with the Cook County State's Attorney's Office to drop the initial charges. Yep, remember that part of it? They had dropped the charges, and then they came back. Who knows? In any case, Jussie will be back in court in Chicago. I know he will be really happy when this chapter of his life is over. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On the show today... Harry Styles was the big winner at this year's Brit Awards, taking out all four of the big categories including Artist Of The Year. But it's one line in his acceptance speech that everyone can't stop talking about. And the world is speculating that Megan Fox and Machine Gun Kelly have broken up, thanks to some suspicious activity on her Instagram account. While we're pretty sure she's just trolling us all, some dramatic history has been unearthed thanks to who she is now following. Plus, Mischa Barton is in the headlines this week…thanks to an interview she did in 2005. Her comments about Leonardo Dicaprio have gone viral but we're now telling a very different story to the one that took place more than a decade ago, when you think back about the moment Mischa Barton's career was destroyed.

Elizabeth Griffiths is a mixed media artist using hand embroidery, lino print-making, inks and watercolours to explore a range of themes. She shares the uplifting experience (and challenge!) of using hand embroidery as a competitor in Sky TV Portrait Artist Of The Year. We dive behind the scenes! Who was her portrait subject? How was it organised? What was it like trying to compete using hand embroidery against 'paper & paint' artists? This was just one of a number of events that have made 2022 a rollercoaster of a year for Elizabeth, and we chat about how these events have affected her art and creativity. Susan Weeks chats with Elizabeth Griffiths about: Exploring mixed-media - lino prints, inks, watercolours - with hand embroidery The excitement of taking part in Sky Portrait Artist Of The Year How to use embroidery in a time limited, live, portrait competition Keeping true to her style Using mixed media to trigger embroidery Why Elizabeth put away her needles & thead for a while Do silk paints go off, we wondered?

Sunday Special: 02/13/2022 BLOCK A: 30 INTRO: 60 Plug: GABE: Col. Hall Show Axed by Youtube This past week, for our midweek fix, we interviewed Colonel Hall, who has served our country for over 23 years and has numerous accolades from his service, and YouTube deleted our show with him in less than 24 hours. 23yr Colonel who defends our country so YouTube can exist in a free country. 23yr Colonel who literally signed up to die for YouTube’s freedom to exist. What big tech is creating is a dangerous divisive country moving forward. It is horrible that they banned President Trump, but now you are going after members of our military. What YouTube and big tech are doing, is waging digital war, and make no mistake, that after they go after CrossPolitic, Babylon Bee, President Trump, then they will eventually come after you. And once they have eliminated all the proactive threats, like us, and mind you without any real debate or substantive conversations, then they will build tech fences (digital concentration camps) to keep the rest of you in line. The government has a new 30 million dollar Harm reduction strategy to “minimize negative consequences of aids in pedophila”. In order to save the children from getting aids the plan is to provide “safe sex kits” and rooms where the pedophile… Knox there’s no such program… What? So there’s no 30 million? No, there are 30 million? Wait, so is there a harm reduction program? Ooh yea there’s a program? It’s just from drug addicts not pedophiles…yet. The harm reduction grant program allows reimbursement to local governments that provide "smoking kits" for users of crack cocaine. Existing smoking kit programs in other cities all include smoking pipes. And a HHS spokesman initially confirmed to the Free Beacon that the kits provided through the grant program were designed to smoke crack cocaine, crystal methamphetamine, as well as "any illicit substance." After publication of a report on the funding, HHS backtracked in a Tuesday statement that labeled the story "blatant misinformation." Press secretary Jen Psaki helped claraLIE the situation: CLIP 3rd News Story: TOBY: The Female Ice Skaters are no longer “Ladies” Include this story: https://pagesix.com/2022/02/09/adele-says-i-love-being-a-woman-at-gender-neutral-event/?utm_medium=SocialFlow&utm_source=NYPTwitter&utm_campaign=SocialFlow You know which Olympic Winter sport is finally shedding its gendered, classist, and racist roots? Women’s Ice Skating. Did you notice how non-gendered, non-classists, and non-racist that was? I said “women’s” ice skating. Since 1924, men have competed under categories for “men,” but women could only compete under “ladies.” The 2022 Winter Olympics is the first to let women compete as women, not ladies – in their underwear. Why? To make a more accepting culture for LGBTQ skaters. What about the plusses? Ice dancer Kaitlyn Weaver, a two-time Olympian and three-time World medalist, said the terminology further emphasized the gendered nature of the sport. Women were celebrated for being graceful, polite, demure — all the qualities of a “lady” — instead of being athletic. “The term ‘ladies’ takes away our power, our athleticism, our sexuality,” Weaver said. “Even in the English language there are instances where ‘ladies’ feels right versus where ‘woman’ feels right — ‘the ladies who lunch’ versus ‘the first woman to land a triple axel.’ When we talk about any type of athletic feat or strength or power, we use the word ‘women.’” U.S. Figure Skating, however, has still not made the change. Idaho Family Policy Center: I wanted to let you all know about Idaho Family Policy Center and their Spring Banquet on March 10, 2022, at Still Water Hollow in Nampa, Idaho, featuring Uncle Gary Demar, as the keynote speaker.
