Amanda Gorman, the poet who famously performed at President Biden’s inauguration, is backing Vice President Harris and praising them both for “exchanging the torch without ego, malice, or pride.” “It was the honor of a lifetime to perform poetry at an inauguration that swore both President Biden and Vice President Harris into office,” Gorman wrote on the…

Inaugural poet Amanda Gorman lauds Biden and Harris for ‘exchanging the torch without ego’

Shepard Fairey, the artist who created the now-iconic 2008 “Hope” poster of Barack Obama for the future president’s first campaign, on Thursday unveiled his depiction of Vice President Kamala Harris, seen in blue and white above the word “Forward.” Like Obama, Harris is looking up and to her left. In releasing his latest work of art, Fairey cited with approval what has become one of the Harris campaign’s slogans: “We are not going back.” “These words from Kamala Harris summarize the moment we are in, and in order not to go back, we must go FORWARD!” Fairey wrote in a statement on his website, which included a voter registration link. Fairey added that he was not paid to produce it, writing, “I created this work purely in pursuit of a better future.” Fairey did not create a similar piece for either Hillary Clinton’s 2016 campaign or Joe Biden’s four years later. During Donald Trump’s campaign against Clinton, Fairey depicted him in the style of Big Brother from George Orwell’s novel, 1984.

President Joe Biden was supposed to have spent the evening watching the start of a convention built around propelling him to four more years in the White House. Instead, he was on stage delivering an emotional address as an animated crowd inside Chicago’s United Center poured out their gratitude at his decision to stand aside and pass the torch to Kamala Harris.

Voter enthusiasm in the Biden era has always seemed to favor Republicans. Trump’s seemingly never-ending campaign and rallies throughout often felt like a traveling roadshow or never-ending rock ‘n’ roll tour, complete with a cast of die-hards who follow him from town to town and camp out to be in the front row at each one of his events.

[Note: Unless otherwise indicated, the commentary and quotes in this article are from the author's interview with those mentioned.]. Elizabeth Montgomery was one of the most popular actors from the 1950s to her unfortunate passing from cancer in 1995. Before, during, and after her benchmark Emmy-nominated role as twitch-witch Samantha Stephens on TV's Bewitched (ABC, 1964-1972), Montgomery made over 200 additional appearances in other weekly shows, TV-movies, and feature films.

Actor Buddy Ebsen, who died at age 95 in 2003, found fame by starring in two of the most popular classic television shows in history: The Beverly Hillbillies (CBS, 1962 to 1971) and Barnaby Jones (CBS, 1973 to 1980). On the Hillbillies, he played former Tennessee country mountain-folk-turned-wealthy Beverly Hills resident Jed Clampett. On Barnaby Jones, he was one of TV's most senior, slyest, health-conscious detectives. Ebsen, however, almost became even more famous for a certain big-screen classic film in which he ultimately did not appear.

One of the most beloved Hollywood stars in the history of television, in particular, was actress Frances Bavier, who died in 1989 at age 85. The likable actress became best known for her compassionate and nurturing role as Aunt Bee on The Andy Griffith Show (CBS, 1960-1968).

Meghan Markle's venture into the lifestyle space has not been met with universal acclaim, particularly from one well-known figure: Martha Stewart. Earlier this year, in March, Meghan unveiled her new lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard. The brand immediately drew comparisons to other celebrity wellness empires, particularly that of culinary icon Martha Stewart. However, these comparisons have reportedly struck a nerve with Stewart, who finds them both "irritating and insulting."
