Anne-Marie November 8, 2018 (Los Angeles, CA) – Anne-Marie is delighted to announce her new video for “Perfect To Me”, a reworked version of her song “Perfect” – a track featured on her Gold certified debut album ‘Speak Your Mind’. With a heartening and empowering message tackled with sensitivity and wit, “Perfect To Me”, produced by Rice N’ Peas (G-Eazy, Bazzi), celebrates Anne-Marie’s imperfections and ones perception of what ‘perfect’ represents, as channelled in the beautifully authentic, accompanying official video. Anne-Marie recently spoke to Huffington Post about the song and her struggles with “not being perfect.” She is one of the very few public figures using her social platforms to spread authenticity in the body positive movement. For her, some days are better than others, and her Instagram feed is representative of that. She is just as quick to share her insecurities as she is to talk about how she has reached a place of more self-acceptance. It ...

Marco Rubio With Ben Carson, Donald Trump, Ted Cruz & Jeb Bush HUFFINGTON POST -- Marco Rubio may have committed the ultimate heresy for a Republican: The senator from Florida admitted that recent corporate tax cuts are doing little to help American workers and that increased public spending might be in order. In an interview with the Economist, Rubio said he doubts that the tax cuts or Trump’s “America first” protectionism will stop people from losing their jobs to automation. “There is still a lot of thinking on the right that if big corporations are happy, they’re going to take the money they’re saving and reinvest it in American workers,” he said. “In fact, they bought back shares, a few gave out bonuses; there’s no evidence whatsoever that the money’s been massively poured back into the American worker.” Photo By: Erik Kabik / Media Punch Inc

**** TELEVISION INVESTMENTS **** Rosanna Arquette This is a TV show that can turn up the heat for ratings and knock ‘reality’ out of the ring for ‘realism.’ Rock in a Hard Place isn’t pretty eye candy. It’s dirty, messy, and pretty much like twisted real life (just funnier). The script is written by Huffington Post contributor, David Fagin , a New York based writer, producer and musician, and his sister Stephanie, a professor of clinical psychology at Columbia and asks the question, “What if Sid Vicious survived the 70s and ended up with two ex-wives and three crazy kids?” The show is a comedic wake-up call. It features the fictional but oh-so-familiar Jewish punk legend Lance “Lint’’ Jones as he leaves rehab and is forced to live with his mother. It’s not about music (although that’s there). It is about the human element and the desire many feel to reconnect with family after years of massive screw-ups and self-destruction. Rock in a Hard Place puts iconic fi...

Eric Stonestreet There's no question that Emmy-winning sitcom "Modern Family" is influencing American cultural opinions on same-sex relationships through its characters Mitch and Cam. And that influence goes all the way up to the most powerful people on the planet, as revealed in a HuffPost Live interview with actor Eric Stonestreet yesterday. Stonestreet spoke to HuffPost Live's Caitlyn Becker about the show's impact, and also explained why he refused to take a picture with former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum. Stonestreet: "President Obama mentioned in an interview like three weeks ago, just casually, that Michelle and the kids watch Mitch and Cam and they're in tears. To hear the leader of the free world, the president of the United States, say that and to know we have that sort of reach with people and that the people in power and leadership are watching the show [is incredible]." Stonestreet: "Rick S...

He said, 'Here's the deal,' because it was in the news that he was going to do an interview. I said, 'O.J., don't do it, it's stupid.' He said, 'Hey, they offered me $600,000 not to dispute that I [wrote] the book.' He said, 'That's cash.' I said, 'They're going to think you wrote it.' He said, 'So? Everybody thinks I...

One of my favorites, I have to say, is Channing Tatum, but the list goes on forever and ever...He can dance and I think that’s really cool because I love people who can have multiple talents. So he’s funny and he can act and he can also dance and get down, like hip-hop. So that’s pretty cool to me." On transitioning from child star to adulthood: Zendaya: “Everyone grows their own way. Everyone is going to grow and figure out who they are and some people aren’t going to like it and some people aren’t going to agree with it, but at the end of the day, it’s their journey… It’s who they are and it just happens to be displ...

Candace Cameron Bure 90's TV star Candace Cameron Bure appeared on HuffPost Live to discuss her new book, and she opened up about her Full House co-stars, her faith and her 17-year marriage, in which she says she takes a "submissive" role. On taking a “submissive” role in her marriage: Candace Cameron Bure: "The definition that I’m using, with the word ‘submissive’ is the biblical definition of that. It is meekness, it is not weakness. Meekness is strength under control, it is bridled strength and that’s what I choose to have in my marriage. And, listen, I love that my man is a leader. I want him to lead and be the head of our family. And those major decisions do fall on him. It doesn’t mean I don’t voice my opinion. It doesn’t mean I don’t have an opinion. I absolutely do, but it is very difficult to have two heads of authority...I allow him to make the final choice, absolutely." HuffPost Live Host Nancy Re...

**** Barbra Streisand Blogs In Huffington Post To Tell America The Truth **** Barbra Streisand FROM HUFFINGTON POST: In this election, the people of America have to make a choice between two candidates with very different values, visions and solutions to the most pressing problems facing our country. The question voters need to ask themselves when they walk into the voting booth on November 6th is: "Will the country be better off returning to the policies of George W. Bush's Administration?" Like Bush, Governor Romney believes we need more tax cuts for the wealthiest 2% and fewer rules for Wall Street. He wants to roll back financial reform and set Wall Street free to write its own rules again. He wants to repeal health care reform and leave 30 million people without a safety net. And the trillions in tax cuts he wants to give to millionaires and billionaires will only force more devastating cuts to critical programs that serve the middle-class....
