Former First Lady Rosalynn Carter Passes Away at Age 96
When I got married and moved to a Ranch north of Tucson, Arizona, I was still a broadcaster for an ABC TV affiliate Magazine show, but the rest of my life completely changed. I remember when the late First Lady Rosalynn Carter arrived at our Kai Ranch and greeted our family. She was beautiful and very kind. She wrote me a handwritten note wishing me good wishes in happiness and health. I wish I could thank her for her kindness again. Thank you First Lady Rosalynn Carter.

Imagine a summer camp where the campfire tunes take center stage, literally.

Imagine a summer camp where the campfire tunes take center stage, literally.

That's right for the kids at Camp Ovation, traditional camp activities are not high on the agenda. These talented kids crave nothing more than performing on stage and screen. Camp Ovation serves as a refuge for the young, aspiring performers - who are all misfits in their own unique ways.

Making his directorial debut, Todd Graff filmed CAMP at Stagedoor Manor in upstate New York - the site of the real summer theater camp he attended. His cast and crew lived and breathed "camp" even when the cameras were not rolling. They slept in the bunks, ate in the cafeteria - ahh yes the luxuries of a low budget film.

Nevertheless, the real "camp" experience transcends through to the screen. You see real people, real talent. No big-time movie stars.

Featuring a variety of music and a cameo appearance from theatrical legend Stephen Sondheim, CAMP weaves a storyline that explores the search of adolescent self-discovery.

Ay Chihuahua!

Moondoggie steals the show on the red carpet at the Hollywood screening of Legally Blonde 2: Red, White, and Blonde

Moondoggie steals the show on the red carpet at the Hollywood screening of Legally Blonde 2: Red, White, and Blonde

With the fourth of July summer blockbuster weekend behind us we now know that Arnold is really back, and Reese has tackled Washington the Elle Woods way.
StudioLA's team was enchanted by two four-legged stars who stole the show last week at the Los Angeles screening.

While a very pregnant Reese Witherspoon, was unable to attend the Hollywood screening of MGM pictures' Legally Blonde 2, all eyes and tails were on the pair of naturally blonde canines.

The sequel is actually centered around the two pooches. Once Elle (Reese Witherspoon) discovers that Bruiser's mother is being used as a cosmetic test subject by one of her firm's clients, in true Elle Woods style, she campaigns all the way to Washington to stand up for animal rights.

Moondoggie, who plays "Bruiser" in the film, and Gidget, who plays Bruiser's mother, arrived at the red carpet in true celebrity style. Wearing designer collars and well-groomed coats, the two Chihuahuas wowed the hundreds of fans in attendance.

But these four-legged actors are no strangers to fame. The original Legally Blonde launched Moondoggie to international star status. And Gidget was propelled into the limelight when she landed the role as the "Taco Bell Dog."
