Even as a teenager starring in Huff, you could tell he was going to be the incredible actor he became. Sadly we only a got a glimpse of his phenomenal talent because he light was snuffed out way too early.
Even though he was taken away from us so young, let’s keep his legacy alive today by watching him in one of his many unforgettable roles giving a memorable performance.

Two years ago, Christina Grimmie came out on to The Voice like a wrecking ball, and now we all feel like we were hit by wrecking ball after hearing about her senseless death. The 22 year old singer was and shot and killed last night while signing autographs after a show in Orlando, Fl.
Orlando police said a 27 year old man from Florida traveled to the concert armed with two handguns, 2 additional magazines and a hunting knife approached and shot her. Then her brother, Marcus Grimmie, tackled the shooter to the ground. The shooter then shot and killed himself. As of now, there is no motive for this horrific crime and it doesn’t seem like her knew her personally.
This will change the way we go to concerts and it will change the access we have to celebrities.
But now let’s not think about that, let’s remember Christina Grimmie and pray for her family and friends as they deal with the unimaginable. A young beautiful light snuffed out way before her time.

Muhammad Ali passed away yesterday at the age of 74 from respiratory complications. Cassius Marcellus Clay, Jr was a great boxer, but as Muhammad Ali he was the Greatest. Not only did he box with his hands, he also fought with his mouth. Giving us great lines like, “Float like butterfly, sting like a bee,” and “I am the greatest, I said that even before I knew I was.” He wasn’t only an athlete, he was an inspiration to many.
Today honor the Champ, by keeping his fighting spirit alive!

Tonita Castro passed away on May 8th from cancer at the age of 64 according to Deadline. Although her name might not be familiar to you, you will know her face. The actress had a way of stealing every scene she was in. On Go On she didn’t speak English, but you knew what she was saying. She was the reason to tune into Dads every week because they always gave her the best bits and she delivered them perfectly. Sometimes she didn’t have to say anything and she would make you laugh.
Today remember her with a huge smile by watching one of her many roles.
