Ons boek Live to Tell ligt in de winkels! We hebben er anderhalf jaar keihard aan gewerkt, de reacties zijn ontroerend en hartverwarmend. Het verhaal van hiv en aids in Nederland mag niet worden vergeten. (Ook een fijn cadeau voor Sint of Kerst trouwens!) ❤️🙏

Heel triest.
Weer iemand op de Biblebelt, die in een gelovig gezin opgegroeid is, en moet vluchten uit zijn dorp, omdat zijn familie zijn geaardheid niet accepteert.

Hartverscheurend.
The stroller of one-year-old Angelina was placed on her grave. Beside her, her mother, Inna Mariukhna, a primary school teacher, also laid to rest.
Angelina was killed by a Russian drone while sitting in her stroller in a park in Kharkiv. Images of this tragedy spread around the world - a heartbreaking reminder of the innocent lives Russia continues to take every single day.
May little Angelina and her mother rest in the Kingdom of Heaven.

En zo kan ik nog wel even doorgaan. Als je zo nodig afkomst een rol wil laten spelen, doe het dan consequent.

Princess Diana‘s brother Charles Spencer says Kristen Stewart gave one of the best performances as Diana, even if "Spencer" was a "terrible" movie.
"I was on a plane and I saw a movie called ‘Spencer.’ I thought I’d better look at that. And there was Kristen Stewart, who doesn’t really look like Diana, but my goodness, she caught the spirit. I thought it was an incredible performance. The film’s terrible. But I was really intrigued by how good she was at capturing Diana."

Hugh Jackman says he will not appear as Wolverine in "Avengers: Doomsday." But might he return for "Secret Wars"?
"I don’t know what you’re talking about. I have no idea what you’re talking about... I do have an internal chip, that is not metaphorical. There’s a literal chip, and if I say the wrong thing, I get shut down. I don’t know who controls that chip, but someone is controlling it."

Paulien Cornelisse (50) is overleden. Taal was, zeg maar, echt haar ding. En dat had die taal nog heel lang moeten blijven, want ze was er nog lang niet over uitverteld. En velen hadden er – vooral uit haar mond, uit haar pen – ook nog graag alles over vernomen.

#EdSheeran tears up at his first show amid the controversy surrounding Macklemore’s removal, thanking fans for their support: “I will never stop doing this.”
Ed Sheeran took the stage on Saturday night for the first time since Macklemore was removed from his stadium tour following the Seattle rapper’s onstage speech in support of Palestinians.
"I’ve had to take and make difficult decisions, and I am making mistakes, and I’m so so sorry."

#EdSheeran opens up his tour stop in Philadelphia with a prepared statement:
“Now, I want to address the question of where I stand on Israel and Palestine, and whether my doing this concert here tonight implies where I stand…What happened in Israel and at the Supernova Music Festival on October 7 was horrific and compounded centuries of Jewish pain. What is happening in Gaza is catastrophic, unjustifiable, and disproportionate. My heart has been broken by the scale of devastation and loss of civilians’ lives, of children’s lives. The systemic injustice we’re seeing unfold in the West Bank cannot be overlooked. I am already speaking to people across the spectrum to work out how to make a contribution that helps victims of these terrible times, and listening and learning because I do not know enough.”
Ed Sheeran breaks his silence on Israel-Gaza at his first show amid controversy.
“This has put me in the middle of an important and passionate argument about freedom of speech and the most complex political issue on the planet.”
