Who Is Gennifer Flowers?
The Clintons must have one hell of a green thumb because this is one flower that refuses to wilt. Gennifer Flowers, the former model and lounge singer who became notorious after her affair with Bill Clinton over two decades ago, is back with a vengeance. Donald Trump, never one to shy away from controversy, tweeted to his millions of followers that he would be extending an invitation to the ex-mistress to the first Presidential debate between him and Hillary Clinton. With all the dirty politics happening so far in this election, are we surprised? Not really. But who really is Gennifer Flowers, and what role does she play in this election—almost 20 years after Bill Clinton admitted to his affair with her? Flowers has said publicly she’ll accept the invitation from Donald Trump (shocking, really...) to sit in the front row of the presidential debate.

Alberto Mielgo Erotic Artist Interview
Erotic artists did not start off as shock artists. The public’s reception to this kind of art has changed dramatically from the later part of the 20th century when experimental art, a euphemism for eroticism, was intended to explore sexuality and the artist's perception of its place in society. Alberto Mielgo is often referred to as a shock artist. Shock art was born out of necessity. As the digital space exploded in the 21st century, the lines of erotic art and pornography began to blur. A new generation lost sight of the beauty inherent in sexuality. Artists and creatives pivoted in their messages as it became important to make a statement. Statements by artists, like Alberto Mielgo, became a signature art form that were intended to challenge the status quo, the puritanical, and the hypocrisy of a society that bends to the will of the media. In his own words, Alberto Mielgo explains his view of the world around him, that seems to close one eye with disdain and open the other eye wide with desire.

Michel Gyarmathy Interview
Built as a music-hall, the locale was home to various operas, concerts, gymnastics, magic and comedy shows. Its boards were trodden by such famous beginners as Charlie Chaplin and Colette (before she turned novelist). The theater shifted emphasis during World War I, when "the exhibition of feminine pulchritude in the nude became the most sensational aspect of a Folies show." Nothing to do with shepherdesses, the Folies's name was intended to be Trévise, but some dispute developed and Bergère was taken from the name of a nearby street. In the sparkling era that followed, stars included Maurice Chevalier and Mistinguette, Raimu, Fernandel, Yvonne Printemps, and Josephine Baker.

Starring Alissa Bourne and Spencer Carter, Audrey is an ode to Palahniuk’s first published piece. Audrey dives deep into the hyper-stylized way we fantasize and pass judgement.
