Oh, what a time it was. Back during the Movie Martin day, I interviewed a then-breaking big Channing Tatum at the Loews Miami Beach, one sunny, humid Friday afternoon, when he was in town meeting with press on behalf of Steven Soderbergh’s Magic Mike. So this was summertime, 2012. I had gotten into the magazine game […]

The Miami Collective
When I was very young (OK…younger), I heard the siren song of Miami. Miami. You know, where the heat is on. I started to visit the Magic City as a child, but I started to get to know it as a teen through the magic of the movies. Movies, Miami movies, back when movies where […]
The Hartbreak3rs Collective
Heartbreakers is on, you guys. Talk about a pre-9/11 movie – a comedy, no less – that’s held up good. It is so good. Jennifer Love Hewitt is riding her first big wave. OMG, she was on the cover of the first Teen People three years prior – she was the wave! Two years after Galaxy Quest, […]
NADA Is Everything
#MiamiArtWeek has been real.

I had spent a bit o’ the morning checking out the comprehensive documentary exhibition of “Surrounded Islands,” […]
Miami 12.7.18
Much like Sarah Jessica Parker in 1995’s Miami Rhapsody, I look at Miami these days, and talk about how much it’s changed, and you know, how it’s always hot and how it’s always stormy, and how it’s, you know, how it’s occasionally a little dangerous…but you know…. Really, if it’s really so awful, why is […]
Makes the People Come Together
Last week, I answered one of Madonna’s tweets, and her Music has been playing at home ever since. No music, no fun. No fun, no life. Repeat it like a mantra.
Alive and Well
Late last month I saw something on Twitter that made me sad. LOL. A darling friend from Miami – we went to see Madonna perform during one of the DVD nights of her “MDNA Tour” (so we tight) – was lamenting her teenaged son’s first day back in school, as she noted that Rudy Giuliani’s […]
