Here is the final part of our take on celebrity chefs though history (read the first part here).
8) Fanny Cradock
If you love pizza – and are not of Italian descent – you may well have Fanny Cradock to thank. Fanny Cradock (only one ‘d’) was born in 1909 just outside London and, after a few false starts in door-to-door selling and as a shop assistant, found her life’s career path when she got a job at a restaurant.
She became a big fan of August Escoffier (not in this list, but well known around the turn of the century for updating traditional French fare, standardising a range of French sauces and – very unusual at the time – insisting on businesslike quiet and cleanliness in his kitchens!), then in 1955 teaming up with her fourth husband Johnnie Cradock to write a cooking column in the Daily Telegraph in London called ‘Bon Viveur’. This translated into theatre productions where she and Johnnie would cook live on stage and share the food among the audience.
She ultimately became much better known in the UK as the host of her TV cooking show, also with Johnnie, which aired from 1955-1975. She encouraged her viewers to try new recipes, especially French food, when the height of experimentation and sophistication in the country was pretty much bangers and mash.
At the same time she was very conscious of most households of the time running a very tight budget, and made sure that most of her recipes had very affordable ingredients. Her avowed intent, which sounds pretty old fashioned now, was to empower the ordinary housewife to have the courage to try new foods.
These new foods, as mentioned, included pizza which was pretty much unknown in the country*, and the once ubiquitous prawn cocktail. She had a reputation of not suffering fools (or anyone) gladly and her career came to an end when she was harshly critical of the winner of a TV cooking competition called ‘Cook of the Realm’ (think Masterchef). Known for her glamorous dress sense, she was once a little put out to discover – live on set – that one of her fellow guests on the Parkinson chat show, female impersonator Danny La Rue was a man. She walked off.
*the first pizza chain in the UK (Pizzaland) was only set up in 1970, towards the end of her TV career
9) Keith Floyd
Keith Floyd, along with Delia Smith (see below) was the next generation of celebrity chefs to follow Fanny Cradock, and both of these publicly acknowledged that they had been influenced and encouraged by her.
After a very short career in the British army as an officer in the tank regiment, which he left declaring that he and the army were ‘mutually incompatible’, he worked in several jobs in catering before setting up his own restaurants in Bristol in the UK. As a reasonably prominent restaurateur in the city (even though most of his restaurants at one time or another had financial problems), he first appeared in the media on local radio, subsequently being offered his first TV show on the BBC in 1984 – ‘Floyd on Fish’.
His signature approach was to do the cooking on location rather than in a studio, in one episode on board a fishing boat, but always with a glass of wine in his hand and the bottle very close by.
He was a heavy smoker, drinker and general ‘bon viveur’ and died at the age of 65 in 2009.
His somewhat irreverent style endeared him to viewers, as well as his sometimes chaotic approach to producing a dish. Much like his predecessor Fanny Cradock, he showed how making good food could be straightforward and fun, and inspired the next generation of home cooks and professional chefs, including both Marco Pierre White and Anthony Worral Thompson who said “I think all of us modern TV chefs owe a living to him. He kind of spawned us all.”
10) Michel Roux
Michel Roux moved from his native France to the UK after working briefly with his older brother Albert Roux at the British Embassy in Paris. He and his brother opened their own restaurant in London, which they called Le Gavroche, which means ‘urchin’ in French from a character in the novel/opera/film Les Misérables. Charlie Chaplin came along to their opening night, as did Ava Gardner.
Roux, before he moved to the UK, described English cooking as ‘horrific’ and set out to correct this at Le Gavroche and at their second restaurant, The Waterside Inn in Bray outside London. When Michelin stars were first awarded in the UK in 1974, both restaurants were recognised with one star, rising to three stars for Le Gavroche in 1982 and the same for The Waterside Inn in 1985.
Michel and his brother Albert were described as the ‘godfathers of modern restaurant cuisine in the UK’ by Caterer and Hotelkeeper magazine and several of the current batch of celebrity chefs have worked under the Roux brothers, including Gordon Ramsey and Marco Pierre White.
11) Delia Smith
Delia Smith was a fixture of the TV chef/cook scene in the UK for decades until her retirement in 2013. She became interested in cooking in her early twenties when she worked in a small restaurant in London, avidly reading all sorts of cookery books in the British Museum (of all places) and trying out recipes on the family she was boarding with. Her first foray into the media was as a cookery writer for the Daily Mirror magazine, moving later to the Evening Standard. From there she was offered TV shows, the first of which was called ‘Family Fare’ which started in 1973.
Throughout her career she also wrote a large number of cookery books, including the 1971 bestseller ‘How to cheat at cooking’ – at the time (and probably still) a standard ‘moving out’ present from mothers to their sons and daughters. Delia Smith was the first TV celebrity chef to have an acknowledged effect on the sales of ingredients and cooking utensils featured in her shows – the ‘Delia effect’, the most notable of which was a 10% increase in egg sales in the UK after one show.
Her other claims to fame include…
- cooking the cake that appeared on the front cover of the Rolling Stones ‘Let It Bleed’ album
- being the largest shareholder of Norwich City Football Club
- selling 2 million hardback copies of her book ‘The Winter Collection’ the fifth biggest selling book in the UK in the 1990s
12) Martha Stewart
Martha Stewart, one of only two Americans on this list (Julia Child being the other), rose to fame through her TV show and magazine ‘Martha Stewart Living’.
She briefly ran a catering business and managed a gourmet food store, but got her ‘in’ to the world of publishing through her husband, Andrew Stewart’s publishing house and was invited to write a cookbook by the head of another publishing house, after he attended one of the functions she had catered for.
Called simply ‘Entertaining’, it was a commercial success and was followed by several other cookbooks. Although the scope of her books extended to ‘homemaking’ in general, cooking formed a large part of them and the success of the books led to her writing columns and articles for newspapers and magazines around the US. In 1990 she launched the magazine ‘Martha Stewart Living’ with the TV show following in 1993.
A slight hiccup in her career came along when she was convicted of insider trading in 2004 and served 5 months in prison. Remarkably this did not bring the whole empire down and she continued and grew her business interests on being released. One of these is the Marley Spoon meal kit food delivery business.
Although not an award-winning restaurateur like many of the celebrity chefs listed here, her influence on cooking in the United States particularly has been – and continues to be – huge.
13) Rene Redzepi
Rene Redzepi is part of the newer generation of celebrity chefs, born in 1977, and owes his spot in this list to the stunning success of his restaurant, Noma in Copenhagen in Denmark. His awards speak for themselves – between 2006 and 2019 Noma has been recognised as the best restaurant in the world three years running and for five years in total (by Restaurant magazine and also by TripAdvisor), with Redzepi himself named International Chef of the Year in 2008. Noma also holds two Michelin stars.
Although he is not a TV chef as such, he and his restaurant have featured in many TV shows and documentaries.
Redzepi embarked on his career in catering when he was 15 and was an apprentice at a Michelin starred restaurant called Pierre André in Copenhagen for four years. He also visited El Bulli restaurant (see below) and worked there for a season.
Although Danish, his father is from Macedonia and is of Albanian descent. When Redzepi was young the family lived for a period in a big family house in Macedonia and ate a mostly locally sourced and vegetable based diet. He attributes his approach to cooking, which relies heavily on locally produced ingredients and an element of foraging for food in the wild (and fermenting and dehydrating these), to his early upbringing in Macedonia.
The restaurant name comes from the combination of the words ‘nordisk’ (meaning ‘Nordic’) and ‘mad’ (meaning ‘food’).
14) Ferran Adrià
Ferran Adrià rounds out our list of the top 14. Much like the younger Rene Redzepi, his fame and recognition as one of the top chefs in the world come from the accolades he has won as the head chef at the El Bulli restaurant in Spain. El Bulli (which means ‘the bulldog’) has ranked as the best restaurant in the world no less than five times in the annual Restaurant magazine top 50 and in fact only relinquished this title after the restaurant itself closed (the next year Noma won).
Adrià has much in common with British chef Heston Blumenthal, preferring to take traditional recipes and give them some type of twist, either changing the texture and/or temperature of the dish, or introducing new flavours to it, something he refers to as ‘deconstructivist’. Although he doesn’t like the term ‘molecular gastronomy’, Adrià has taught a ‘culinary physics’ course at Harvard.
In his native Spain (although Adrià himself is from Catalonia, you know the part of Spain that wanted to cede from the rest of the country recently) he is a controversial figure, attacked by some for putting too many chemicals into his food, especially the food ‘foams’ that he is well known for, and for his cooking being ‘pretentious’.
In a sign that the world of cooking and art have already collided, Adrià took part in an art event called ‘documenta’, however he refused to ‘exhibit’ in the main location on the basis that the experience would only work in El Bulli itself. He then invited various luminaries of the art world (at random) to visit his restaurant as part of the event. He got away with it. Adrià, along with Blumenthal, regards eating at a restaurant as a cultural event (our phrase), having once said that he’s ‘turned eating into an experience that supercedes eating’. Maybe that’s why he appears last on this list.


Music Download: Busta Rhymes Feat. Vybz Kartel & Tory Lanez – Girlfriend. Busta Rhymes has long ago established himself as a major force in the game, but he’s maintained a low profile, over the past few years. Not terribly long ago, Busta Rhymes was signed with Cash Money, but he left during the mass exodus.
Hot off A$AP Ferg’s star-studded “East Coast (Remix),” Busta Rhymes flies to Jamaica for his island-flavored new single “Girlfriend” featuring Tory Lanez and Vybz Kartel.
Busta Bus, who comes from a Jamaican background, kicks off the Rockwilder-produced track with some harmonies. “Let it go, girlfriend,” he sings. “Bang it to the tune, girlfriend / Now, all my chicks’ll beware / Hands in the air / Show ’em and let ’em know, girlfriend.”
After Vybz references Nicki Minaj, Rihanna, Beyoncé, and JAY-Z in his raunchy lyrics, Swavey comes through with the third verse. “She want a man who makes money,” he sings. “So a pussy boy can’t step to me / Money like it’s make believe.”
Busta is working on a new album, his first since 2012’s Year of the Dragon, for release on Epic Records. Next month, the Conglomerate leader is set to celebrate the 30th anniversary of his sophomore album, When Disaster Strikes…, a project that yielded hits like “Danger” and “Put Your Hands Where My Eyes Could See.”
Fly to Jamaica with Busta, Vybz, and Tory below.


Helen Mirren will play the villain in the “Shazam!” sequel.
Per The Hollywood Reporter, the esteemed actress will don the guise of Hespera, the daughter of Atlas, in the New Line/Warner Bros’ flick “Shazam! Fury of the Gods”.
Also recently recruited for the film, “West Side Story” alum Rachel Zegler. The trade says Mirren and Zegler play sisters.
Returning from “Shazam” are Zachary Levi and Asher Angel. David F.Sandberg again directs.

Paul Walker tragically lost his life in a car accident back in late 2013, and it’s hard to believe that he has already been gone almost three years.
Even though he has a lot of films to his credit, Walker may be best known for the part of Brian O’Conner in the Fast & Furious franchise, which has earned a ton of money around the world. Well, the sequels are not going to stop coming anytime soon, and it now appears that his character could very well return.
Despite some “family feuds” on the set of Fast 8, it appears that everyone has gotten over the issues and are once again cool with one another. Not a lot is known about the plot of the film due out next year, but it’s not like it will be anything but awesome, like the majority of the others.
When Paul Walker died in November of 2013, he was right in the middle of filming Furious 7, and there were still a few scenes that needed to be completed. His brothers, Caleb and Cody, stepped in to help complete the extra scenes and with CGI, things worked out pretty flawlessly.
At the end of the film, Walker’s character of Brian O’Conner rides off into the sunset, but the character is not killed off. So, in the movie world of Fast & Furious, he’s still alive.
Walker played the role of Brian O’Conner in six of the franchise’s seven films to date, but could the character somehow return?
Entertainment Tonight Online recently spoke with Caleb Walker and Cody Walker to discuss a number of things, especially the second annual Game4Paul fundraiser, but other topics were on hand. They discussed working on Furious 7 and filling in for their brother, and Caleb says that it helped them mourn his loss.
“We got to understand more about Paul, and what he was all about. We had to share Paul with a lot of people, in a weird way. He was gone a lot, he was filming, so we missed him. Sometimes at the holidays he wasn’t always there, you know? He tried. We’d see him on set, we visited a few times, but to kind of get that closure, and understanding [of] Paul was really special.”
They also discussed how they got to know Vin Diesel much better and that he shared a lot of cool things with them about their brother. It was great for them to really get to know the people that knew Paul on a different level and spent so much time with him.
It was never a secret that Paul Walker and Vin Diesel were very close.
Caleb Walker still speaks with Diesel, and it appears as if there have been some discussions to bring back Brian O’Conner in a


Last night St. Louis and the world lost an amazing singer, Fontella Bass. She suffered a heart attack on Dec. 2 and did not fully recover, according to a report from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Bass died Wednesday night at a hospice in Chesterfield, the Winchester House.

Beyoncé is again under attack; this time, it is because of her shoes!
Beyoncé has recently been spotted by PETA sporting a pair of custom Isabel Marant wedge sneakers. According to E! News, the sneakers are made from "a range of exotic animal skins including stingray, ostrich, calf hair, crocodile and anaconda” and are called "The King Bey."
"These custom-made kicks come with a high price and it's paid by the various animals who were beaten and skinned alive or cruelly farmed and killed," PETA states, slamming the singer’s shoes. "Although most people aren't as familiar with the types of animals (snakes, stingrays, crocodiles, and ostriches) killed for this single pair of sneakers as they are with the cats and dogs we share our homes with, these animals are highly sensitive living beings who try hard to avoid capture and suffer enormously when trapped, netted, speared, and skinned alive."
As many of you recall, this is not the first time PETA has had a problem with Beyone’s fashion this year.
Beyoncé’s halftime performance at the Super Bowl, where the singer touted a revealing leather outfit, had animal rights activists up in arms. In an interview with E! News PETA scolded the artist, claiming that "Today's fashions are trending toward humane vegan options, and Beyoncé's Super Bowl outfit missed the mark on that score.”
And we can't forget about the infamous three-quarter length Christian Dior mink coat Beyoncé wore while singing at the inauguration earlier this year.
Despite repeated indiscretions, PETA maintains hope that Beyoncé will change her ways. "We hope that Beyoncé will choose to wear more clothes from her own clothing line, which features faux fur, and that one day, she'll go completely cruelty-free.”

Danny has been back in the studio focusing on a new EP after a fantastic start to the year
with a Miami Ultra Music Festival appearance during Gareth Emery's Headline set, a

injury on his path to a premiership rugby contract that it came to the forefront. "It really
stepped in and filled a gap that Rugby had left". Much of his recent music reflects on this
with lyrics about finding his way through the many unexpected twists and turns of life.


CWMF: Adrian Interviews Ennis Esmer!
CONNECTING WITH MY FUTURE (CWMF)
Adrian Mark (14 years old) Interviews Ennis Esmer, one of the stars of the TV Show, The Listener.
READ ADRIAN’S REFLECTION ON HIS EXPERIENCE
“Interviewing Ennis Esmer was an absolutely extraordinary experience for me, and getting the opportunity to talk with someone who has a professional acting career was definitely a great chance. I was enlightened on the world of acting and learned about the great things about his job, as well as some of the struggles in his career. I got to learn about his journey to where he is now and where he gets his inspiration, and where he gets his support. I have to admit, I did feel kind of anxious going to the interview, especially as he is on a hit show that many people love (The Listener). On the other hand, Ennis was extremely hilarious and had everyone in tears with his jokes during the filming of the interview. He made the whole experience enjoyable for me and I had lots of fun. I imagine people who watch this video will be inspired and motivated to discover and learn more about having an acting career and their own acting talents. Being part of Connecting With My Future was a bliss and I am happy that I took part. It was an exciting experience and will definitely be something for me to remember. Getting to meet Ennis Esmer was really cool and I am thankful to Horizon Arts Camp and The Artistic Edge for giving me this amazing opportunity!” – Adrian Mark (14 years old)

but my post today is dedicated to Katy Perry!
Growing up I've never had any favorite celebrities or role models,
but I bought Katy Perry's whole Teenage Dream album yesterday,
and I was surprised that I loved so many of the songs on it.
I've always had a kind of weird impression of her,
mostly because of her bizarre outfits.
But the thing I realized about Katy Perry is that even though she may wear scandalous things sometimes,
she exudes this enormous amount of confidence and happiness with everything she does.
And I also love her makeup.
And some of her outfits.
And her music.
Some of my favorite songs on the album:
Teenage Dream Remix
Not Like The Movies
So here are my favorite pics of her:
|I love how her makeup is so natural yet so pretty.|
|Love this whole outfit.|
|One of my most fav outfits that's not from the red carpet|
|Love the hat and makeup.|
|Love the easy pretty makeup and gorgeous dress.|
|So pretty and classy, one of her best outfits in my opinion.|
|I love the sleek ponytail and sparkles.|
|This glowing dress was SO cool! Great idea|
|Very classy and gorgeous, love the hair and makeup.|
|The dress is hot and I love the shoes and makeup.|
|Modest dress but still pretty.|
|Once again I love the sparkles and lips.|
|Sparkles. And I love her hair.|
|Very classy and I loved the natural makeup.|
|Fun outfit and makeup.|
|Absolutely gorgeous dress.|
|Sparkly dress and awesome heels.|
|Love her sunglasses, this is from her Teenage Dream music video.|


US : The “Can You Ever Forgive Me” star stopped by “Jimmy Kimmel Live” Wednesday night to talk about her new film and, more importantly, her somewhat disturbing addiction to Etsy.
The topic came up when she was showing off her dazzling cat vest to Jimmy Kimmel, telling him she bought it from a woman in Columbus, Ohio, through the e-commerce site that deals in handmade and vintage goods.
“I got a bit of a problem with Etsy…” she confessed. “It’s a little, like, at some point, you know Ben [Falcone], my lovely husband? Very mellow, lovely guy. It’s the only thing he’s ever really been like, ‘That’s probably enough.’ Every day it’s like, ‘Oh, it’s a box from Poland!’ And I have no idea. And I’m like ‘It’s a brass bull! What do we do with it?!?’”
McCarthy says she just recently reviewed her purchase history on the side, “and it’s truly like what they make on a crime network … like, that means I’m crazy,” she said.
She told the late-night host her addiction has prompted her to buy many an umbrella stand, decanter and rug. And that last one raised an eyebrow with U.S. customs.

The entertainment world’s best books often are not the ones that focus on famous stars. The people who work alongside the marquee names, as actors or crew, often have better and more insightful stories to tell about life, love, successes, disappointments, and disasters in the movie, television, and theater worlds.
Dallas native James Hampton has spent more than fifty years working in Hollywood, New York, Texas, and elsewhere as an actor, director, and writer. He has appeared in a long list of movies, TV shows, and theater productions, including Slingblade, Teen Wolf, The Longest Yard, The China Syndrome, F Troop, Gunsmoke, and Gomer Pyle, to name a few.
Many people know his face, yet few can recall his name, he notes in this lighthearted, engaging new autobiography, What? And Give Up Show Business?
“I used to get a little miffed when I heard myself referred to as a character actor,” Hampton writes.
“I wanted to be known simply as an actor, and hopefully a good one. Period. The expression ‘character actor’ seemed redundant to me. After all, don’t all actors play characters? Still, not everybody is a star. What I think is that the term character actor, in most people’s minds, seems to mean someone they recognize, but they can’t remember their names. There are a lot of us that fall into that category. We are the actors who don’t get the girl (or guy), and we get killed off a lot. I got killed in the film Soldier Blue before the opening credits were over.”
His book is an entertaining blend of autobiography, memorable events, photographs, and, somewhat surprisingly, a few favorite recipes. Hampton’s anecdotes often feature his on-camera and off-camera time with some of the biggest names in moviedom and TV, such as Burt Reynolds, Clint Eastwood, Doris Day, Gregory Peck, James Garner, and numerous others.
He also recounts how he became best friends with singer and entertainer Pat Boone while they both were theater students at North Texas State College, now the University of North Texas, in Denton. Hampton later appeared in productions at Fort Worth’s Casa Mañana theater and in New York before going off to Hollywood, where his “Texas twang” often helped him land parts in movies and TV shows. In the show-business spirit of “Always leave them wanting more,” the author keeps most of his book’s anecdotes short and to the point, with hints that more could be revealed.
His work ethic—showing up prepared—has played important roles in his show-business successes. Likewise, he sometimes has gotten acting parts by also being willing to do production work to help cut costs. For example, in one New York play, Hampton worked behind the curtain as both assistant stage manager and a stagehand moving props. Then, he went on stage in the third act playing an FBI agent.
“It’s comparatively easy to remember the stars,” he writes. “Their names are plastered all over the screen at the beginning of the movie and the letters are ten feet tall. The names of the actors playing the supporting roles come at the end of the film while the ushers are cleaning up the popcorn.”
Most of the audience, of course, already has exited the theater by then.
James Hampton had a long career as an actor, writer, and director that spanned more than fifty years. Notable roles in movies such as The Longest Yard and Sling Blade, as well as in popular television shows from F Troop to Murder, She Wrote, made James Hampton “That Guy” whose actual name is just on the tip of your tongue. A favorite guest of Johnny Carson, Hampton appeared more than thirty times on The Tonight Show. He also worked behind the scenes as a writer, director, and producer on many successful sitcoms such as Evening Shade, Sister Sister, Smart Guy, Boston Common, and Grace Under Fire.


The future Queen Elizabeth was barely a teenager when World War II threatened her nation, but she was determined to do what she could for her country — and she soon became the first female member of the royal family to enlist in the British Army.
Princess Elizabeth was the first woman in the British royal family to join the military. In her role as a mechanic, the future queen took apart engines, changed tires, and learned to drive trucks and ambulances.
According to the National World War II Museum, women in Britain who were under the age of 30 and unmarried at the time were required to enlist in the armed forces, work on the land, or join an industry. Elizabeth didn’t want special treatment due to her royal status — she simply wanted to do her part.
Less than seven years after the war ended, “Princess Auto Mechanic” was coronated as Queen of the United Kingdom and other Commonwealth realms at age 25. In many ways, the service of Queen Elizabeth during World War II helped prepare her for a lifetime of service to her country.

It's been a crazy summer so far! It's going by so fast...Here is something awesome that happened. Our favorite Swedish pop star Robyn is on tour and we could not miss it! (Don't know her? You will know this song). We decided to avoid crazy LA and opt for her show in Solana Beach, near San Diego. It was a super pretty, really cute, nice little town. We felt like we were in the Truman Show.
She was totally incredible! Shane and I loved every minute- we could have watched her all night long.
She came out in a full on Robin (from Batman and Robin) costume. It was awesome. And then she striped down into this wild outfit.
Most of her stuff is electronic dance pop music. But that doesn't mean her voice isn't amazing.
This video will impress you.

When I first read about this, I was trying to picture Sean Connery as a skateboarding veterinarian and I just couldn’t do it! But then when I read about what this project was about…an animated feature…well, then I could totally see that. So, yes, Sean Connery is coming out of retirement to play the voice of a Skateboarding Veterinarian named Sir Billi. Connery will executive produce and supply his often imitated voice to the animated film. Both Sean Connery returning to film and the fact that he is playing the part of a skateboarder greatly interest me. A skateboarding vet is the last thing I would associate his unique voice to, but I am excited nonetheless!

Amalija Knavs, the mom of former first girl Melania Trump, has died at the age of 78.
The former first girl introduced the information of her mom’s passing on the social media platform X on Tuesday night time. She didn’t give a reason behind demise.
“It is with deep sadness that I announce the passing of my beloved mother, Amalija. Amalija Knavs was a strong woman who always carried herself with grace, warmth, and dignity,” Melania Trump posted to her X account, the platform previously generally known as Twitter.
“She was entirely devoted to her husband, daughters, grandson, and son-in-law. We will miss her beyond measure and continue to honor and love her legacy,” she added.
It is with deep unhappiness that I announce the passing of my beloved mom, Amalija.
Amalija Knavs was a robust lady who all the time carried herself with grace, heat, and dignity. She was fully dedicated to her husband, daughters, grandson, and son-in-law. We will miss her past…
— MELANIA TRUMP (@MELANIATRUMP) January 10, 2024
According to CBS News, Knavs was born in Slovenia in 1945 when it was beneath Communist rule. She married her husband, Viktor, in 1970.
“Melanija attended high school in the Slovenian capital, Ljubljana, and changed her name to Melania Knauss when she started modeling,” it added. “She married then-real estate mogul Donald Trump in 2005, and their son Barron was born in 2006.”
Both Knavs and Viktor grew to become U.S. residents in 2018 and reportedly spent the previous few years dwelling at Mar-a-Lago.
As Breitbart News reported, the media incorrectly speculated as to why Melania Trump had not been current together with her husband, Donald, throughout Christmas celebrations. It was later revealed she had been caring for her ailing mom.
“Former first lady Melania Trump was with her ailing mother on Christmas, solving the mystery of her lack of appearance in a Christmas photo featuring members of the Trump family,” mentioned the report.
“The establishment media and anti-Trumpers were thirsty for a family scandal when they noticed that Melania was not included in the Trump family Christmas photos. Some of them claimed this was further proof that Melania is unhappy with Trump and leaving his side,” it added.

The main takeaway, for me, while reading Ann Dvorak: Hollywood‘s Forgotten Rebel is identifying with the book’s author, Christina Rice. In her touching forward to the biography, she details the difficult road she traversed in finding sources, and writing on a woman whom time has forgotten. In a way, her journey mimics mine with Veronica Lake, right down to Rice’s subject walking a similar path.
Ann Dvorak is best remembered as the tormented Vivian Revere in the pre-Code, Three on a Match. But what happened in her life after the success of that film? Why wasn’t she a bigger star, on par with her contemporary, Bette Davis? Marred by poor decisions, both personal and professional, as well as a belief that she could buck the system, Rice’s biography charts Dvorak’s inauspicious beginnings; being told by her mother – a minor silent movie actress herself – that she would never make it in films because she wasn’t pretty enough. From there, Dvorak clawed her way into the movie business and slowly started making a name for herself in movies like Scarface and the aforementioned Three on a Match. However, once her star started rising, Dvorak wanted to move away from being a slave to her studio.
A subplot to Dvorak’s story is the slow disintegration of the contract system, which bound actors to a studio for years, and allowed studios the ability to tack on additional years at their discretion. Eventually, the studio system came off more as indentured servitude for its roster of stars. A few A-list actors would break the cycle and become free agents: Olivia De Havilland, Bette Davis, and James Cagney, but Dvorak failed to have the name recognition, and persuasion to break her contract and keep her career. Rice never comes down on Dvorak for her career misfires, and lays blame both at Dvorak and the studios feet; the studio who continued to place her in clunkers even after her relationship with them was “resolved.” Dvorak’s story is an intriguing examination of a facet of Hollywood little reported on (at least without analyzing the Hollywood studio system in its entirety).
The basic tenets of a biography are also included: Dvorak’s childhood, her multiple marriages, and her sad fade into obscurity. Where I connected was with Dvorak’s life after her Hollywood career faded away. The woman spent the remaining years of her life in Hawaii, stalwart in her refusal to acknowledge anything in her past, including her film career. Dvorak’s story so reminds me of Veronica Lake, another actress hiding from her fame and discarded by Hollywood. Rice captures the loneliness and pain of losing stardom, and just being lonely within old age. It’s biographies like these, and authors like Rice, who keep the memory of these forgotten stars burning bright.
Ann Dvorak: Hollywood’s Forgotten Rebel is part Hollywood biography and paean to a star who may not have always known what she wanted, but was well aware of what she didn’t want. It’s TCM‘s book of the month currently, and worth seeking out!
