Seth MacFarlane
Early life MacFarlane was born on October 26, 1973, in Kent, Connecticut. His mother, Ann Perry (née Sager), and father, Ronald Milton MacFarlane, are natives of Newburyport, Massachusetts, and are of English ancestry, partly by way of Canada. During his childhood, MacFarlane developed an interest in illustration and began drawing cartoon characters Fred Flintstone and Woody Woodpecker. When he was eight years old, he drew "Walter Crouton", a comic strip for the The Kent Good Times Dispatch. MacFarlane received his high school diploma in 1991 from the Kent School in Connecticut. His headmaster, the Rev. Richardson W. Schell, publicly rebuked MacFarlane for his "low" style of humor and later asked Fox not to air Family Guy. MacFarlane's parents, who both taught at the school, resigned in protest. MacFarlane went on to study animation at the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) where he earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree. As a student, he wanted to work for The Walt Disney Company, but changed his mind upon graduating from RISD. As he recalled: "Like a lot of animators, I felt Disney is God. Now, it's become Disney is Satan." During college, he created his thesis film entitled The Life of Larry. His professor at RISD submitted MacFarlane's cartoon to Hanna-Barbera, where he was later hired. Career in animation and television At Hanna-Barbera, MacFarlane worked as an animator and writer for Cartoon Network's Cartoon Cartoons series. He also worked on Johnny Bravo, Cow and Chicken, and Dexter's Laboratory. MacFarlane also created and wrote a short titled "Zoomates" for Frederator Studios' Oh Yeah! Cartoons on Nickelodeon. In 1996, MacFarlane created a sequel to The Life of Larry called Larry and Steve, which featured a middle-aged character named Larry and an intellectual dog, Steve. The short was broadcast as one of Cartoon Network's World Premiere Toons. Executives at Fox saw both Larry shorts and contracted MacFarlane to create a series based on the characters, to be called Family Guy. At 24, MacFarlane was television's youngest executive producer. Fox proposed MacFarlane complete a 15-minute short, giving him a budget of $50,000. MacFarlane stated that the pilot for Family Guy took half a year to create and produce. Recalling the experience in an interview with The New York Times, MacFarlane stated, "I spent about six months with no sleep and no life, just drawing like crazy in my kitchen and doing this pilot". Bolstered by high DVD sales and established fan loyalty, Family Guy developed into a $1 billion franchise. On May 4, 2008, after approximately two and a half years of negotiations, MacFarlane reached a $100 million agreement with Fox to keep Family Guy and American Dad until 2012. The deal makes him the world's highest paid television writer. MacFarlane has come under fire by many critics for 'blandness' in his characters, most notably in a review of American Dad! by Jeff Cohen, who stated, "It's the same chemistry as Family Guy. The daft father, indifferent mother, older and uncool daughter and younger, nerdy and thick son are all too the same. The variety? Instead of a talking dog, we get a talking fish or, in the case of his latest show, The Cleveland Show, talking bears. And instead of a super-intelligent baby we have an undiscovered alien. And The Cleveland Show is looking set to head right down that route." Family Guy Family Guy first aired January 31, 1999. MacFarlane's work in animating Family Guy has been influenced by Jackie Gleason and Woody Allen's work, along with examples from The Simpsons and All in the Family. In addition to writing three episodes, "Death Has a Shadow", "Family Guy Viewer Mail 1" and "North by North Quahog", MacFarlane voices Family Guy's main characters — Peter Griffin, Stewie Griffin, Brian Griffin and Glenn Quagmire as well as Tom Tucker and his son Jake and additional characters. MacFarlane's success with Family Guy has opened doors to other ventures relating to Family Guy. On April 26, 2005, he and composer Walter Murphy created Family Guy: Live in Vegas. The soundtrack features a Broadway show tune theme, and MacFarlane voiced Stewie in the track "Stewie's Sexy Party". A fan of Broadway musicals, MacFarlane comments on using musicals as a component to Family Guy: “ "I love the lush orchestration and old-fashioned melody writing ... it just gets you excited, that kind of music," he said. "It's very optimistic. And it's fun. The one thing that's missing for me from popular music today is fun. Guys like [bing] Crosby, or [Frank] Sinatra, or Dean Martin, or Mel Tormé [...] these are guys who sounded like they were having a great time". ” In addition, a Family Guy video game was released in 2006. Two years later, in August 2007, he closed a digital content production deal with AdSense. MacFarlane takes cast members on the road to voice characters in front of live audiences. Family Guy Live provides fans with the opportunity to hear future scripts. In mid-2007, Chicago fans had the opportunity to hear the then upcoming sixth season premiere "Blue Harvest". Shows have been played in Montreal, New York City, Chicago, and Los Angeles. Main article: Criticism of Family Guy Despite its popularity, Family Guy has not been immune to criticism. The Parents Television Council frequently criticizes Family Guy for its content and has organized letter-writing campaigns aimed at removing Family Guy from FOX's lineup. MacFarlane has responded to these comments by saying, among other things, "That’s like getting hate mail from Hitler. They’re literally terrible human beings." Family Guy has been cancelled twice, although strong fan support and DVD sales have caused Fox to reconsider. MacFarlane mentioned how these cancellations affected the lineup of writers each time Fox again gave Family Guy the green light, "One of the positive aspects of 'Family Guy' constantly being pulled off [the air] is that we were always having to restaff writers". During the sixth season, episodes of Family Guy and American Dad! were delayed from regular broadcast due to the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike (which MacFarlane participated in to support the writers while FOX aired three Family Guy episodes without MacFarlane's permission). On February 12, 2008, the strike ended, and the series resumed airing regularly, beginning with "Back to the Woods".

I really don't want want Heidi Klum in the VSFS this year- Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2009 (PRE-SHOW Thread)
The show is only a month away. If Heidi gets in shape by then and walks in the show then that just proves to me shes not human. I'm praying Heidi doesn't walk the show. She needs to be with her family do her Project runay show and retire from VS. It doesn't say anything about her not being in the show for sure but imo she needs to take this year off. All I can do is pray to god she doesn't walk the show.- Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2009 (PRE-SHOW Thread)
The incredibly beautiful and in-shape Heidi Klum was at Los Angeles Confidential’s pre-Emmy party Thursday night – wearing 7-inch leopard-print heels and showing off her almost-ready-to-deliver baby body. But amidst the reports came the news from E Online that Klum “doesn’t think she can bounce back in time to strut her stuff…” in this year’s Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. ‘The last time [i gave birth], I had two months, and I don’t know if I have that much time this time,” The 36-year-old supermodel, and Emmy nominee as host for her hit show Project Runway is expecting her fourth child, a girl, in October. Klum is famous for her ability to get back in shape quickly and retain (or retrain) her body. She gave birth to son Henry on September 12, 2005 and appeared in that year’s VS show November 9. To do that, she flew top celeb trainer David Kirsch out to LA to put her on a program of twice-a-day workouts and a special diet. However, Klum was still nursing her daughter, so the diet was a sensible one. Her workouts that time included yoga, core work, shadow boxing and hiking. Klum’s commitment to healthy fitness is well known, so if she says she can’t do it this time, the public will just have to accept the fact. Klum is not the only Victoria’s Secret super body to be baby-bodied this year; joining her are Gisele Bunchen, Karolina Kurkova; and Adriana Lima. The show tapes in November and airs on CBS in December. examiner.com- Victoria's Secret Fashion Show 2009 (PRE-SHOW Thread)

my mother is really crazy- Siri Tollerød
scanned by Birgit at tfs Translated interview (translated by Birgit) THE SUPER SIRI Norway's new supermodel, Siri Tollerød, have taken the fashion industry by storm. HENNE's Lisbeth Guldbrandsen met her. The blitz is flashing towards Siri's almond-shaped eyes. The contact between the camera and the model is created, and the rest is easy. Siri is changing her pose almost imperceptible. She is tilting her head a little bit down and turns her leg into another position. After spending time at the photoshoot with Siri Tollerød, Norway's biggest international model at the moment, you understand why she is booking jobs for the biggest magazines and advertising campaigns; she and the camera are good friends. Right now, she is number 25 at the models.com ranking, a list with the world's biggest models. She have walked down the best runways: Balenciaga, Chanel, Christian Dior, Louis Vuitton. She has been on the cover of Italian Vogue, French Revue and Muse. She also have been in fashion spreads in many international magazines, British and Italian Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, Numéro and V Magazine. She also have worked with photographers like Craig McDean, Steven Meisel, Miles Aldridge and Steven Klein. When we meet her, she is about to walk for the first time at Oslo Fashion Week, where she is going to open the official opening show. And don't forget: she's also going to do a photoshoot with HENNE wearing clothes by Iselin Engan. The Norwegian designer have been in Bangladesh in cooperation with the organization Care, where she have found fabrics that have turned into the three dresses Siri is going to wear during the photoshoot. The dresses are not going to be sold the regular way, but they are going to be auctioned away to support Care. - It is very nice to be a part of and focus on Care's work. I'm impressed about the work they do, and that they make people help eachother, and offer small loans to women in Africa so that they can take care of their children, Siri says. - I think that the fashion business should take more responsibility. Some do already and donates the surplus from the campaigns, but more of them should do too. POPULAR ON THE RUNWAY The history about Siri's model career beginned with that she was at the right place at the right time. Siri was christmas shopping with some friends in Kristiansand five years ago, and was scouted by Donna Ioanna from Joy Model Managament in Milan. Siri had never dreamed about being a model, but after a while, she traveled to Milan together with her mom just to try. She went home to Norway to finish high school, and then back again. The first summer was difficult. She was a "rookie" all alone in Milan, and she had a difficult period. - It was very tough. I missed home every day. But I wanted to model, Siri tells. Autumn 2 years ago was the turning point, and Siri booked over 60 shows in Milan, Paris and New York. Since then, she've been one of the most popular catwalk models and have opened Chanel and she also have been photographed by the one and only Karl Lagerfeld. After a while, she moved to New York to be in the center of the fashion business. - What have the success done to you? - My life is changed. I am more independent and grown up. But at the same time, my friends tells me that I am the same old Siri. That's good. - Which characteristics have made you so popular as a model? - I know what I want and I am patient. As a model, you have to be strong and believe in yourself. It've been very good with my mom and dad's support. Besides, you have to take good care of yourself, because a model has to look good. I am careful that I get enough sleep, eat a lot of fruit and vegetables, and drink a lot of water. And it is important to smile and to be positive, Siri tells. SIRI'S AUTUMN FASHION TIPS To be a model have always helped people go on with their careers such as acting and music, but when the supermodel was inveted in the 80's, to job as a model has become more than a break from other things. The hottest models today have become stars and style icons, and are designing their own clothes and accessoires collections. The main focus is on their style and their private life. Many photographers are taking pictures of the models backstage in their own clothes. MOD - "Model of Duty" - is a phrase in the fashion industry who describes the model's own style. - It's a little tiring, because you don't want to dress stylish every day. But, it is a model's job to look good. As a model, Siri is being dressed in fantastic creations, and she tells that she has become more interested in fashion than before. She describes her own style as classic, but with a little bit of a rocky edge. - Do you have any inside fashion tips about what to have in your closet this autumn? - A jean shirt and old jeans. A jumpsuit, a blazer with wide shoulders and a pair of cool shoes. New York is the closest thing Siri has to call a home except of her childhood house back in Kristiansand. The most attractive jobs are to be found in NY. From one day to another, she could be on the other side of the planet. - The fact that you travel, learn languages and explores other cultures is the best thing about working as a model. The worst thing is to be so much gone from your friends and family, she says. Therefore, she is very careul that she get to travel home to Kristiansand 3-4 times every half year; home to mom's dinner and to walk in her pajamas and to meet old friends. - What do you think about the future? - I definetly want to study, maybe marketing. Or physiotherapy. But I have good time to decide.- The Best Numéro Cover
