For Paris Jackson, being the daughter of Michael Jackson has always come with its unique peculiarities. Paris talked about the infamous masks she and her brother had to wear while out with Michael, and reflected on her own memories of her father (Michael Jackson), who passed away three years ago.
The 14-year old admitted that she gets bullied at her private school, but she tries not to let the bullying get to her. Instead, she thinks of the man she knew, who nurtured her and loved her unconditionally. No amount of bullying can take away those memories and experiences she shared with her father.
“People have tried [to bully], but it doesn’t always work. Both at school and some people try to cyber bully me.”
“They try to get to me with words, but that doesn’t really work.”
Asked if she thought people picking on her were just jealous, Paris said: “Maybe, I don’t know.” Jackson says she mostly ignores it.

A mixed-blood Native American, Joe Logan, eager to modernize his reservation, must first prove himself to his father, the traditionalist Tribal Chairman, by rediscovering his spirit. He is tasked with coaching the reservation’s high school lacrosse team which competes against the better equipped and better trained players of the elite Prep School League. Joe inspires the Native American boys and teaches them the true meaning of tribal pride. Ignited by their heritage and believing in their new-found potential, coach and team climb an uphill battle to the state championship finals against their privileged prep school rivals.
Obviously is a movie with a predictable plot, but it works because the action sequences are engaging enough for novices to the sport and authentic enough to satisfy the true believers. Kids and teens will learn about Native American culture, including the fact that Native Americans invented lacrosse especially where the Native American heritage is examined in modern times. In general terms, is a family-friendly entertainment and the filmmakers had the good sense to cast real lacrosse players.

Todd Harris (The Kids Are All Right), Mitchell Peck (Priest), and Adam Leff (The Last Action Hero).

Madonna vs. Lady Gaga
The pop star Madonna sang Lady Gaga’s song ‘Born This Way’ during a rehearsal. Gaga’s song is rumored to have copied Madonna’s popular single ‘Express Yourself’. Madonna was asked about Gaga’s single and stated “I thought, this is a wonderful way to redo my song. I mean, I recognized the chord changes. I thought it was … interesting.” Lady Gaga refused the speculations and responded “What a completely ridiculous thing to even question me about. … If you put the songs next to each other, side by side, the only similarities are the chord progression. It’s the same one that’s been in disco music for the last 50 years.”

Lady Gaga and the "White Devil"
Lady Gaga revealed in an interview that her past drug use was due to loneliness. She admitted that at 19-years-old she had mental and emotional problems. “I would go back to my apartment every day and I would just sit there. It was quiet and it was lonely. It was still,” said Gaga. “It was just my piano and myself. I had a television and I would leave it on all the time just to feel like somebody was hanging out with me.” This lead to cocaine use and dependency on the drug. “It was like the drug was my friend. I never did it with other people,” she said. “It’s such a terrible way to fill that void, because it just adds to that void, because it’s not real.” Lady Gaga had an epiphany and realized that the “white devil” was destroying her. She then decided to focus on her music.
