  • White Collar Star Matt Bomer Comes Out
    White Collar Star Matt Bomer Comes Out White Collar actor, Matt Bomer, finally came out as gay at the Steve Chase Humanitarian Awards this Saturday. After accepting the New Generation Arts and Activism Award for his work in the fight against HIV/AIDS, the actor made the announcement to the public. “I’d really especially like to thank my beautiful family. Thank you for teaching me what unconditional love is. You will always be my proudest accomplishment,” he added, according to UsMagazine.com. Bomer’s partner is Simon Hall, who is a Slate PR publicist. What are the best ways to come clean about your sexuality to friends and family? Cupid’s Advice: The nuclear family is changing, and more people have the confidence to come out about their sexual orientation. Cupid has some tips to help you be honest with your friends and family: 1. Friends: Coming out to your friends first will be good practice for when you tell your family. You’ll get an assortment of reactions, and you’ll be able to identify your true friends. It will be easier to tell your family once you already have a support system behind you. 2. Be ready: If you have gay friends that have already come out, they may pressure you to hurry and do the same. Wait until you’re completely ready emotionally and mentally, so that the situation is handled the best it can be. 3. Confidence: Your biggest fear about coming out may be your friend’s and family’s reactions. If things take a turn for the worst, be patient and give them time to come to terms with the situation.

  • Viola Davis's Call to Adventure
    PROFILES DECEMBER 19 & 26, 2016 ISSUE VIOLA DAVIS’S CALL TO ADVENTURE How the star of “Fences” and “How to Get Away with Murder” got away from her difficult past. By John Lahr “I had a call to adventure, a call to live life bigger than myself,” Davis said. Photograph by Awol Erizku for The New Yorker n January 25, 2009, a jubilant Meryl Streep stood before a gala crowd at the O Screen Actors Guild Awards, in Los Angeles, having just won an award for her role in “Doubt,” the flm adaptation of John Patrick Shanley’s Pulitzer Prize- winning play about sexual abuse, race, and the Catholic Church. Clutching her statuette, Streep gave a shout-out to the rest of the cast. When she got to Viola Davis—who had earned her frst Academy Award nomination for her performance as the mother of an African-American boy a priest is accused of abusing—Streep saluted her colleague as “gigantically gifted,” then threw up her hands. “My God!” she said. “Somebody give her a movie!” The industry seems to have listened. Davis—“a newcomer at forty-fve,” as Streep later joked—has made twenty-one flms since then. Not all her roles have been large or central to the narrative arc, but, as Aibileen Clark, the maid who helps expose the folly of the white Mississippi matrons she serves, in “The Help”(2011), she was a popular success and gained a second Academy Award nomination. “No one had ever akst me what it felt like to be me,” Aibileen says at the end of the flm.

  • Actress Marcia Gay Harden Becomes Alzheimer's Advocate a Er Mother's
    APRIL/MAY 2017 BY LINDA CHILDERS Actress Marcia Gay Harden Becomes Alzheimer’s Advocate Azer Mother’s Diagnosis In 1990, Marcia Gay Harden made her big screen debut as Verna Bernbaum in the Coen brothers' black comedy Miller's Crossing. In 2000, she won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress as Lee Krasner, in Pollock, a biopic about the painter Jackson Pollock. Nine years later she snagged a Tony for her role in the Broadway hit God of Carnage. Today, she plays the brilliant emergency room doctor Leanne Rorish on the CBS medical drama, Code Black. Throughout her career, Harden has proved her versatility. She can assume any role and deliver an award-worthy performance. Yet Harden admits she was unprepared for the role she assumed after her mother, Beverly, was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 2009 at age 72. As the irreversible, progressive brain disorder slowly destroyed her mother's memory and thinking skills, Harden found herself becoming her mother's caregiver and parent. "It's very much a disease that impacts the entire family," Harden says. "There are so many decisions to make on behalf of another person." She and her siblings have had to determine where their mother should live, what sort of care she should have, and how much intervention she might want in her last days, says Harden. For most of her life, Harden's mother was a spirited Navy wife who raised five children, often by herself, while her husband was at sea. Years later, as Harden raised her own three children, Beverly, whose husband died in 2002, became a doting grandmother.

  • Affective Agency in Viola Davis's Award Speeches
    Yearbook of the Poznań Linguistic Meeting 6 (2020), pp. 159–181 DOI: 10.2478/yplm-2020-0009 To be sentimental, powerful, and Black: Affective agency in Viola Davis’s award speeches Agata Janicka Adam Mickiewicz University, Poznań [email protected] Abstract This article considers how the long-standing American cultural tradition of sentimen- tality and its affective power can be discursively utilized by contemporary Black women in the public contexts. Using the concept of sentimental political storytelling as discussed by Rebecca Wanzo, I analyze three award speeches given by Viola Davis – a popular and acclaimed African American actress whose speeches generate signifi- cant public and media attention. Framing Davis’s speeches within the Black feminist epistemology, I draw on the conventions of sentimental storytelling proposed by Wanzo to argue that Davis is an example of a Black woman skilfully using sentimen- tality to gain affective agency and mobilize sympathy from mainstream public while at the same time narrativizing African Americans’ lived experiences to have their hu- manity and their struggle recognized today. Given the continued prioritization of White female suffering in the American media over stories of Black women’s struggle, the ways in which Black women can discursively utilize sentimentality to gain affective agency and negotiate self-definition in interactional public contexts is of significant sociolinguistic interest. Keywords: African American women; sentimentality; affective agency; discourse; media. 0. Introduction Sentimentality holds a major potential for sociolinguistic studies of language. Inherently emotional, sentimentality has had a long-lasting and conspicuous role in the American literary history, and it has been the object of considerable attention in literary criticism (Howard 1999).
