Demi Moore To Play Feminist Gloria Steinem In Porn Star Biopic
Investigative journalist Steinem in 1963, at the Playboy Club in Manhattan, and Moore in 1996, starring in Striptease.
Freed from the clutches of Kutcher, Demi Moore is back to work playing feminist icon Gloria Steinem in an upcoming movie about Bronx-born Linda Boreman, who—under the name Linda Lovelace—is most noted for her appearance in the notorious 1972 adult film Deep Throat. At the time, the film grossed millions, launched Lovelace into spotlight, and sparked a firestorm of debate on cultural permissiveness. Not since her starring role as a single mom stripper with knack for political bribery has Moore grasped a role with such gravitas.
Lovelace recounts the harrowing and provocative tale of the eponymous porn star as she navigates the industry during the 1970s. Later a strident anti-porn activist, Boreman denounced her participation in porn flicks, claiming she was the victim of a coercive and violent husband who forced her to perform at gunpoint. Boreman’s husband Chuck Traynor will be played by Peter Sarsgaard with Hank Azaria as Deep Throat director Jerry Damiano and Adam Brody as porn star Harry Reems.

Today’s Lady News: Dennis Rodman Launching Topless Women’s Basketball Team
Dennis Rodman says he’s launching a “topless women’s basketball team” for the Headquarter’s Gentlemen’s Club in New York. “You don’t have to have too much experience,” Rodman told the New York Post, because I guess watching women playing sports is only entertaining when they’re physically appealing to the male gaze? While I generally don’t care if women want to pose nude/work in strip clubs/perform sex word, I find the combination of toplessness with a field (sports) where women are struggling to get respect particularly repulsive here.

After days of rehearsals at Sunset Strip club The Roxy, Van Halen’s live show appears to be ready for primetime. 
The band, which has reunited with original singer David Lee Roth for their first album together since 1984 (the as-yet-untitled effort is due out on Feb. 7), is set to take the stage at New York’s Cafe Wha? (capacity: 250) on Jan. 5. 
The West Village watering hole was a popular spot in the 1960s and ’70s when artists such as Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix, Bruce Springsteen and Peter, Paul & Mary performed there and downtown luminaries such as poet Allen Ginsberg were regulars. 
Prior to being sold in 1988, Cafe Wha? was owned by Manny Roth, David Lee Roth’s uncle. The club’s website notes that it will be “closed Thursday for a private event,” but it links to a Ustream feed which might webcast the performance.

Holly Golightly is a complicated character. Having run away from her country life, she reinvents herself as a “café society girl” on the Upper East Side of New York in the 1940s. As Capote himself said, “Holly Golightly was not precisely a call girl. She had no job, but accompanied expense-account men to the best restaurants and night clubs, with the understanding that her escort was obligated to give her some sort of gift, perhaps jewelry or a check … if she felt like it, she might take her escort home for the night.” Indeed, and so much more than that — a girl on the run from any feeling of entrapment, picky and eccentric, whose moral ground is shaky at best (she cares deeply for her family but can’t be stirred to feel any guilt for stealing a friend’s beau). We think she’d listen to an eclectic mix of things, but nothing that would get her too worked up. Here’s what we think she would go out to eat, visit Sally Tomato, and refuse to name her cat to.

Former Giants offensive lineman Brad Benson, who played with Carson from 1978 to 1988, said that wasn’t unusual for Carson, whom he described as a “very caring, very cerebral” man, to drop everything to help someone out.
When the team’s backup quarterback, Jeff Rutledge, was in a serious car accident in 2003, it was Carson who made the drive to see him and sat by his hospital bedside.
When running back Doug Kotar was diagnosed with cancer in the early 1980s, Carson gathered teammates and arranged a schedule for them to visit him in the hospital, and then set up a scholarship fund for Kotar’s children.
And when former NFL star Lawrence Taylor admitted in court to paying a 16-year-old runaway for sex as he pleaded guilty to sexual misconduct and patronizing a prostitute, Carson was in the courtroom to offer support, giving Taylor a supportive handshake when he arrived.

Written by Tony nominee Douglas Carter Beane (Sister Act, The Little Dog Laughed) and Lewis Flinn, and directed and choreographed by Tony nominee Dan Knechtges, Lysistrata Jones is the pop reimagining of the 411 B.C. Greek play Lysistrata, by funnyman Aristophanes, about a sex strike in wartime. The story is now placed in the realm of college basketball, with cheerleaders trying to inspire their team to victory. The plan of blonde, belting Lyssie (played by Patti Murin) is to withhold sex in order to motivate the boys. Or, as the girls sing it, “No More Giving It Up!”
(For parents looking for a content guide, Lysistrata Jones has the feel of a Disney channel movie, except there are side trips to a brothel called the Eros Motor Lodge, where a formidable madame played by Liz Mikel has one of the funniest unveilings you’ve ever seen. The band led by music director Brad Simmons, in plain view of the audience, above the action, even breaks up during the scene.)

Barbara Terry, 52-Year-Old Prostitute, Has Worked Bronx Streets For 30 Years
…
Thirty years later, Terry has saved enough money from prostitution — she currently charges customers $50 to $100 for her services — to buy a home in upstate New York, where she plans to retire in a year.
…
The number of prostitutes currently working in the United States is difficult to determine because the activity is illegal and the definition of prostitution is often debated, among many other reasons.
Recent high-profile crackdowns on prostitutions rings suggest the activity is thriving in New York. In July 2011, 17 people and five “corporations” were charged with running a high-end prostitution ring that took in $7 million in three years, CNN reported.
According to The New York Times, the average age at which children are first used as prostitute is between 11 and 14.

As you’d expect, so many entries here attest to the magic of the city: Mayor Philip Hone recalls an exotic exhibition of two giraffes in a lot on Broadway in July of 1838; and my favorite diarist, 10-year-old Catherine Elizabeth Havens, in entries written during 1850, describes the wonders of A.T. Stewart’s Department Store, as well as her own mother’s childhood recollections of ice skating on the canal that’s now Canal Street. Long ago, Havens tells us, those New Yorkers too poor to afford ice skates would simply polish a rib of beef and “fasten it on their shoes to skate on.”
Amid these exuberant entries, though, grittier images of New York push through: DeWitt Clinton whines about city flies in his food in July of 1810; diarist George Templeton Strong a year later describes gangs of child prostitutes on Broadway. And, throughout the centuries of diary entries, the unavoidable voyeurism of New York City life intrudes: The painter Jo …

The first trial took place in February 1988. Rogers, who had pleaded not guilty, was accused of the brutal 1987 murder of Jenny Smith. According to evidence presented at trial, Rogers picked up the 26-year-old prostitute early one morning off a street in Clackamas County. The two went to a parking lot in the suburbs of Portland, where Rogers attacked her with a kitchen knife.
