Spent super Tuesday phone-banking, precinct-walking, filming, interviewing and performing a song I wrote the day before in support of Obama.

However, until toxicology results come in next week, it would be premature to conclude that we have lost yet another talent to addiction.
This comes as terrible news for film fans around the world, many of us e...Read more
Why did the press try to keep the race feud goin? I'm glad they got heckled.
