When he's not saving the rainforest, crusading for Amnesty International, doing yoga in an ashram, having tantric sex or maintaining a macrobiotic diet, Sting still makes music. I don't know how he finds the time, but he does, and he did, and he was at The Today Show to promote it. Last time I saw Sting was in LA, performing a collection of works by Elizabethan lutenist and songwriter John Doulard, and it was as awful as it sounds. No Roxanne, and not one Message in a Bottle anywhere. Let's hope the new music is better than that shit or he'll have lots of time for yoga.
Metallica was in town a few weeks ago to perform at the Apollo Theatre and promote some new movie they've got, because I guess they're still a thing. So I'm walking to the subway after seeing Cher at The Today Show, and here's Metallica leaving Sirius studios, which was seriously too much culture shock for my gay brain to handle that morning. If you're straight, this shot of Lars Ulrich might mean something to you, but it means nothing to me.
Speaking of gay, here's original Dreamgirl Sheryl Lee Ralph arriving at Sirius studios. You might remember her from such classics as Moesha, Designing Women and It's a Living (shoutout to Ann Jillian, wherever you are!), but she's also a tireless AIDS activist and the producer of the annual fundraiser Divas Simply Singing, and it was truly an honor to meet her!
So then Alicia Keys was at Good Morning America, and she finally got her look right.
Last but not least, here's Paul Williams leaving Sirius studios. He may not be a household name (unless you watch The Young and the Restless, but that's a different Paul Williams), but this man is LEGEND in the world of elevator music and K-Tel classics, responsible for writing We've Only Just Begun, Rainy Days and Mondays, Evergreen and Rainbow Connection. I KNOW! How do I not take a picture?
