Is On-Stage Sexuality Art Or Pornography?

The fine line between artistic expression and porn.

A couple years ago I attended a performance at one of those trendy yet underground clubs on the Lower East Side. Normally, I wouldn’t even be able to get into that place, but since my friend had recently started cocktail waitressing there, we were ushered past the long line and escorted to one of those exclusive tables that everyone outside would have killed at which to be seated.

What Men Really Think About You in the Club

Men will consider sleeping with the trashy looking girl, but will never bring her home to mama.

Julianne Hough On Ryan Seacrest: "He Understands My World"

The "Footloose" star on her famous beau, remaking a classic... and being slapped by Dennis Quaid?

Julianne Hough (pronounced Huff) might star in the remake of Footloose, but she is not footloose or fancy free. In fact, she has a significant other named Ryan Seacrest — you may have heard of him. Ask her what it's like to have two Hollywood entities in one relationship and she insists that it works perfectly well. "It helps to be with someone in the business, but we're not just about the business," says the former Dancing with the Stars cast member. "For me and my personality, I do well when my significant other has the same drive and ambition. I love that he understands my world," she says. We caught up with Julianne to find out more about her "world," including her relationship with Ryan, dancing her butt off for that hot body and what it feels like to remake such a classic 80s dance movie.
