Philly Spotlight Post: MARTHA’S KITCHEN & EVENTS
I feel honored. I was blessed into this business from a vision board I did at my church, (Greater Vision Church, 221 E. Logan Street). I was asked to create a vision board as homework from my pastor Billy Thompson, Jr., I didn’t want to do it because it was “homework”, I didn’t want to do homework with the load of work that I already did each day supervising a home with two mentally challenged individuals, who require so much of my attention. So I put it off, this challenge by my pastor could wait, maybe I'd get to it eventually, or not.

Phantom Thread
The film takes place in 1950’s London and is about a very fussy fashion designer named Reynolds Woodcock, played by Daniel Day-Lewis, (who claims this is his final movie role, we’ll see about that). Woodcock is a genius at his craft, but he’s also full of himself, and seems to suffer from OCD and HSP (highly sensitive person) which is really a thing. He can’t stand noises, even stuff like people chewing. Everything must be routine. He has to be told about certain matters only at certain carefully chosen moments or he goes off...

The 75th Annual Golden Globes Round Up 2018
Tinsel & Tine’s RECAP of the Hollywood Foreign Press 75th Annual GOLDEN GLOBE AWARDS by Le Anne Lindsay, Editor Well, I think we can all agree the 2018 Golden Globes was not the good time party we’re used to at this affair. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association celebrated their 75th year in the shadows of the sexual misconduct aftermath and the #Timesup women’s activism movement. Dakota Johnson Best Bling on Black & on Back The varying shades of black dresses, some with bling and spots of color – Allison Williams (Get Out) being my favorite, followed by Dakota Johnson (Fifty Shades Trilogy), all made a statement and an elegant affair,…

Movie Blog Post: I, TONYA
Tinsel & Tine Welcomes Back Contributor Terri L. Heard Smashdance: ‘I, Tonya’ Revisits the Crash-and-burn Celebrity of Figure Skater Tonya Harding At the climax of the film I, TONYA, Margot Robbie, starring as infamous figure skater Tonya Harding, graces us with a rictus grin – both horrifying and heartbreaking – as she applies her makeup before taking to the ice at the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer, Norway. Staring at her, you can’t help but think of Glenn Close’s disgraced Madame Merteuil at the end of Dangerous Liaisons or the late Kurt Cobain’s psychotic grin at the end of his video for the song Smells Like Teen Spirit. All three…
