Under the Knife by Dr Liz O’Riordan review – cancer from both sides | Autobiography and memoir

Photograph: Peter Bischoff/Getty ImagesIt’s hard to be a female Black rock singer and not to have been influenced by Tina Turner. There weren’t very many Black women around singing rock when I was a teenager and in my early 20s. There was Etta James – I think she’s one of the original rock singers – but to actually have loud guitars as well, it was only Tina Turner, really. She also came with this whole persona: the wigs, the stance,…

With two Golden Globes, a Primetime Emmy, and three Screen Actors Guild Awards under her belt, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel star is obviously a massive talent, and at 32 years old she’s probably in the right age range, too.

A Trashed Thriller Plays Both Sides of the Law on Netflix’s Global Top 5

via Vertical Entertainment For whatever reason, action thrillers that take a unanimous pounding from critics can always be counted on to emerge as some of the biggest hits on streaming, especially those that feature Bruce Willis.
