Tony Alamo, 74, had a syndicated televangelist program in the 70s with his late wife Susan. At the time, his “glitzy” denim jackets were worn by everyone from Elvis Presley to Bruce Springsteen.

Now he’s back in the news after police raided his Fourke, Arkansas compound (he prefers the term “campus”) as part of a child pornography investigation. Six underage girls were seized, as authorities believe they were in &

First Look: Notorious
There's a teaser trailer for the Notorious B.I.G. biopic making the rounds lately, and I kinda like it. The music is great, there's a grandly dramatic, dangerous tone to the whole thing, appropriately. It starts out soft and low and builds to a flashy finish. After an exhaustive search, the filmmakers and Biggie's mother Voletta Wallace cast Brooklyn rapper Jamal "Gravy" Woolard for the title role last March. Other cast members include Angela Bassett as Biggie's mother, Derek Luke as Sean Combs, and Antho

The King and I
Shirley Deasley was Toronto's biggest Elvis fan when she was a teenager and, thanks to the cult of celebrity that still surrounds the King, that's how she will be remembered. She was still Shirley Harris when she sparked a 2,000-name petition that spearheaded the push that brought Elvis Presley to Maple Leaf Gardens on April 2, 1957, for his first Canadian appearance.
