Thank you for including me and The Joy You Make on this holiday gift list! cw33.com/news/2024-gift-guid…

Joy can exist even in the face of great sadness. Holidays can be difficult because they often remind us of loved ones who are no longer with us. I am so happy this mom has found a way to turn this unimaginable loss into something that brings her joy. people.com/moms-halloween-di…

So incredibly funny and talented. From "Young Frankenstein" to "Tootsie" to Phoebe's mom on "Friends." Not to mention a fierce advocate for people living with MS. Thanks for the many laughs, Teri Garr. cnn.com/2024/10/29/entertain…

Beautiful moment.

"Figuring things out" is a perfectly acceptable answer and the ONLY person who matters on someone's "coming out" journey is the person themselves. Hoping Shaun Mendes finds the space to figure things out at his own pace. variety.com/2024/music/news/…

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that interviewing Rita Moreno was a highlight of my professional life. What an amazing woman and role model, and—as she might have said—so f*cking funny. In the @washingtonpost washingtonpost.com/wellness/…

A performer who did things her way long before that was done or even encouraged. Mitzi Gaynor knew how to entertain — and fans loved her for it. Rest well, Mitzi. washingtonpost.com/obituarie…

My aunt, Ethel Kennedy passed this morning. What a life she led. What a huge family she created and leaves behind. I’m so glad I was able to laugh with her this summer, to share memories with her. She was a devoted sister-in-law to my mother, a one of a kind aunt to me and my cousins. She was fearless, funny, smart, incredible athlete, patriot, madly in love with my Uncle Bobby, and devoted to making our country better in every way. She was a woman of deep faith. When it got tough, and there were a lot of tough times, she dug in. She relied on her faith like my own mother. They were a pair of strong, determined women. What lives, what examples. It’s impossible to put her life in a caption. I love you, Ethel. Godspeed, and to all my cousins, I send my love to you on this day and on all days.
