Princess Grace of Monaco (formerly Hollywood icon Grace Kelly) and U.S. President John F. Kennedy during her visit to the White House on May 24, 1961... 🇺🇸🇲🇨
This historical photograph captures a rare meeting of American royalty and European elegance, Grace Kelly, now Princess Grace of Monaco, visiting President John F. Kennedy at the White House in 1961. Grace, once Hollywood’s most luminous actress, had left her film career behind to marry Prince Rainier III in 1956. Her presence beside Kennedy, himself a cultural icon, symbolized the fusion of glamour, diplomacy, and idealism that defined early 1960s America.
The visit reflected more than charm. Grace’s humanitarian work and Kennedy’s youthful optimism both represented a world still hopeful in the shadow of the Cold War. Her gaze, warm and admiring, seemed to capture the public’s own fascination with Kennedy, a man whose charisma and intellect embodied a new political era.
Grace Kelly and Jackie Kennedy had met previously at social events in the 1950s. Both were admired as style icons, yet their paths diverged, one choosing monarchy, the other becoming America’s First Lady.

WIDOW'S BAY is good. MAXIMUM PLEASURE GUARANTEED is even better. It's like Hitchcock came back to do it one more time. And Tatiana Maslany is so good. The play of emotions on her face is pretty incredible. She goes from comic to terror in an instant.
Jamie Lee Curtis says her “favorite job ever” was the sitcom “Anything but Love” with Richard Lewis:
"It was fantastic. I’d never been in front of a live audience. John Ritter was one of the producers of the show. I loved him. We were auditioning actors for the part of a rogue guy who kept coming on to me in a scene. Every actor who came in backed me up against a desk, and I had to push him off. After one guy left, John Ritter came over to me and he whispered in my ear, 'You have really funny legs.'"

To everyone who helped bring the Obama Presidential Center to life, thank you. Michelle and I are so grateful for all your dedication and hard work over the years.
I got a little teary-eyed tonight thinking about my mother-in-law, Marian Robinson.
Former President Obama:
"History will rightly remember today’s violence at the Capitol, incited by a sitting president who has continued to baselessly lie about the outcome of a lawful election ... But we’d be kidding ourselves if we treated it as a total surprise."
Too often, women are insulted, beaten, raped, forced to prostitute themselves.... If we want a better world, that will be a peaceful home and not a battlefield, we all need to do a lot more for the dignity of each woman.
