Prince Mario-Max Schaumburg-Lippe: US Star Ariana Savalas Is Headlining In Hamburg’s Palazzo Theatre And Receives Award

Ariana Savalas. The American singer, songwriter, and burlesque performer is the daughter of Academy Award-nominated film and TV actor Telly Savalas (Kojak). Savalas is a resident headlining performer and emcee for Postmodern Jukebox and just finished her residency in Las Vegas before heading to Hollywood for two special VIP performances. She was one of the original members of the successful group alongside Haley Reinhart, Casey Abrams, Robyn Adele Anderson, and Morgan James. She tours with the band and has appeared in a number of the group’s YouTube videos. She is often referred to as The Pussycat and she is known for her risqué on-stage music and comedy. She has even been called the modern day Mae West and the Dita Von Teese of music, fusing her original songs with elements of traditional vaudeville, grand jazz and burlesque. She was described by Las Vegas Magazine as “the musical burlesque queen” and “the mistress of the modern Moulin Rouge”. Hollywoods leading event hosts Al Harris and Raquel Sanchez from KTM inc. express their love: “There ‘s no one out there more talented and cool, the only big problem is that Ariana is constantly booked so its hard to get a hold of her as a headlining event performer!”.

Sophisticated. Her first jazz album, “Sophisticated Lady”, is a combination of Savalas’ original compositions as well as two standards from the Great American Songbook, including the song Sophisticated Lady by Duke Ellington, Mitchell Parish, and Irving Mills which she named the record after. Savalas was widely known in the cabaret world headlining in venues such as the New York Friars’ Club and Michael Feinstein’s late New York cabaret Feinstein’s. In a departure from the traditional cabaret world, Savalas began incorporating her own music into her live shows, drawing influences from the Weimar Republic era of German Cabaret and the Moulin Rouge. Her 2019 live album is called “The Ménage a Tour! Live from Las Vegas” is a showcase of music, songwriting, dance, comedy, and burlesque. Since her departure from traditional cabaret, Savalas tours with her solo act and with Postmodern Jukebox as a headlining artist and their first female emcee ever. They have performed at grand venues such as Radio City Music Hall, The Greek Theater, and the O2 Academy in London.

Prince Mario-Max Schaumburg-Lippe: Mad On A Monday Night. The Football Highlights From Metlife Stadium In New Jersey.

Tonights Football Highlights: The Scene was set for a beautiful night of football at Metlife Stadium in New Jersey, with a heated divisional rivalry between the 4-3 Dallas Cowboys and the 2-6 New York Giants. The Cowboys needed to beat the Giants in order to remain at the top of the division after the Eagles Sunday win against the Chicago Bears.

Best Running Backs. The one match up I was looking forward to seeing was the battle between the elite running backs Ezekiel Elliot and Saquon Barkley. Ezekiel Elliott entered Monday’s game with 602 rushing yards and 6 rushing touchdowns, while Barkley entered the game with 373 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns. Saquon did miss some game time due to an injury he suffered in the week three win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

First Play Pick. Dak Prescott had a rough start as the first play of the game was an interception by Antione Bethea giving the Giants great field position, but the cowboys’ defense came up big and kept Daniel Jones and the New York Giants short of the end zone forcing the Giants to settle for a field goal.

Field Goals. After trading field goals the Giants broke the tie with a one yard passing touchdown to Cody Latimer, followed by a missed extra point attempt by Aldrick Rosas.

Another Turnover. For a second it looked as if the Cowboys were going to go down the field and score but then on a 3rd and five play Jabrill Peppers forced a fumble on a passing play to Randall Cobb, and the ball was recovered by Antione Bethea.

More Field Goals. After the turnover the Giants took advantage with a long series that resulted in a field goal bringing the score to 3-12 in favor of the Giants.

Touchdown. The Dallas Cowboys came back with Dak Prescott throwing a 42-yard touchdown to tight end Blake Jarwin bringing the score to 10-12

Picked Off. During the following drive Daniel Jones was picked off by Xavier Woods. The Cowboys ended the half with a 52-yard field goal by Brett Maher taking the lead 13-12.

Turnover. After trading punts at the beginning of the second half Daniel Jones tried to rush for the first down on a 3rd and six fumbling the ball after a hard hit by Woods. The ball was recovered by the defense giving the Cowboys good field position.

Another Field Goal. Off the turnover the cowboys took advantage of the good field position. Setting up an easy field goal for Brett Maher the Cowboys extended their lead to 16-12.

Monday Night Fights. Tempers flared up as Daniel Jones was pushed close to the sideline by Xavier Woods causing Jones to fall backwards into a sound guy. Even with the taunting penalty on Woods the Giants couldn’t find the end zone and settled for a field goal.

Tick For Tack. After the amazing catch and run by Michael Gallup to score a touchdown, the Giants weren’t ready to roll over. Saquon Barkley broke off a 65-yard reception to bring the Giants to the Cowboys five-yard line. After the explosive gain the defense didn’t budge an inch and Rosas kicked his fourth field goal of the game.

Runaway. The fourth quarter was all Cowboys as they continued to run up the score with a touchdown pass to Amari Cooper. Amari Cooper joined the Cowboys last season, and has looked like a true number one wide receiver since arriving.

Going Down Swinging. It was a hard-fought game. A lot of words and emotions were left on the field. The referees having to break up a handful of fights. Reminisce of the old Giants and Cowboys. The Giants looked like they had a fighting chance early, but once the cowboys worked out a few kinks, they rolled to an easy victory in the second half. The Cowboys knock out the Giants and remain number one in the NFC east.

Prince Mario-Max Schaumburg-Lippe: Los Angeles Fashion Weeks Radar: Sanctuary Fashion Week And Their Founders.

Sanctuary Is Fashion. Sanctuary Fashion Week makes its mark on the fashion week game yet again with its latest epic installment of what has been called the most unique and theatrical fashion week going these days. This must be due to the Sanctuary mission of creating such creatively encompassing platform for all types of creators such as the visual arts, music, dance, and, of course, fashion. Their inspiring and inclusive fashion week events are set against a backdrop of historic gothic cathedrals and cater to both a high end, as well as an emerging talent crisis of attendees.
Tough Competition. Boasting such a lineup of talent is now incredibly rare, but what certainly is different from most fashion week productions is their penchant for creating an almost theatrically inspired series of shows and performances that typically leave the onlookers in awe. Since the last Mercedes Benz fashion week in Bryant Park in NYC, the fashion week production industry has splintered off into countless entities, each having their own distinct way of presenting each seasons fashion trends in numerous markets. Sanctuary Fashion Week, however, seems to have taken the historically unchanged template and breathed a new light, a sincerity and an intimacy into it. A welcome addition to such a vibrant industry and a fantastic model that some other fashion week production companies are already emulating.
A Royal Host. During fashion week in Los Angeles in October, dynamic duo and founders of Sanctuary Fashion Week, Sir Kenn and Sir Korrie Gray Hayes, produced 16 high end designer fashion shows and had 8 musical and dance performances by well known artists. Hollywoods Celebrity Anchor His Highness Prince Mario-Max Schaumburg-Lippe was the host of the prestigious event.
Top Designers. By all accounts, the series of shows was memorable and left front row celebs and other attendees wanting more and inspired by the fashion forward collections presented.  Some of the designers included; Ritual, Dell Scott, Dur Doux, Lindie Sayman Couture, & Love Baby J.
Disney and Lifetime Celebrities. Hip Celebrities even come in scores to be a part of both Sanctuary Fashion Week and their newly launched Sanctuary Magazine such as Aaron Spellings Melrose Place Star Jamie Luner (she received standing ovations after Prince Mario-Max welcomed her), Larry Namer the E! Television Founder, Disney notables Ava and Alexa Kolker, Txunamy, Solage Ortiz, Julia Garcia, Joelle Better, Kyra Lyn, Madison Freidman, as well as stars like Aaron Paul, Gustavo Gomez, Amanda Holley, MotoeHaus, Sangeeta Kaur, and many others.

Prince Mario-Max Schaumburg-Lippe: Audrey Hepburn, The Hollywood Angel Our World Needs!

“… I’m only now becoming fully aware of how important a figure Audrey Hepburn was in her generation and for future generations.”, Rob Wolders.

Fame. Audrey Hepburn’s journey is incredibly distinctive and full of accomplishments. As her stardom grew, she was able to transform herself from a movie and a fashion icon to that of a nurturing mom and outstanding humanitarian. Audrey’s life was filled with success, loss, happiness and sadness, yet, she never allowed any of it to define her or change her moral ground.

Kindness. Unfortunately, Audrey Hepburn’s legacy is slipping away, but my desire is to ignite the sparks and influence new generations to dream, build and remain true. I want to institute in them that despite this sometimes “violent world”, we can move forward without losing ourselves, our morality and human kindness. The seeds we plant today are the gardens of tomorrow and that is the moral premise of this fable and the unforgettable Audrey!

Angst. Rob Wolders spoke of a certain existential angst she had—not about death but about life, and “living it correctly.” “You can come out of her kind of background one of two ways, hard or soft. She came out soft. She wasn’t hardened by her difficult experiences in life,” (by Roger Caras) and this is one of the most important messages that she brought to the world. She had had no huge disappointments or unfulfilled hopes. “I am the most un-bitter person in the world,” she told Rex Reed.

High chic and spirit. What exactly are those qualities that made her so unique and important? Why must new
generations cherish and follow these standards of character?
“Hepburn was first of all a human being. It was her personality more than her acting that made her a star,” said Eleanor Lambert. These are the qualities that Gregory Peck glorified: “Audrey is a magical combination of high chic and high spirits.”

Son Sean. Her son, Sean Hepburn Ferrer, said, “Mummy believed in one thing above all: She believed in love. She believed love could heal, fix, mend, and make everything fine and good in the end.”

“Hepburn as actress and woman seemed a gentle emissary from a better world than ours,” wrote Richard Corliss. “She taught, by example, what a lady was: a vessel of grace and gravity, ready wit, eldritch charm; a woman whose greatest discretion was to hide her awareness of her splendor.”

“Audrey was meek, gentle and ethereal,” said Sophia Loren, “understated both in her life and in her work. She walked among us with a light pace, as if she didn’t want to be noticed. [I regret losing her] as a friend, as a role model and as a companion of my youthful dreams.”

“I am proud to have been in a business that gives pleasure, creates beauty and awakens our conscience, arouses compassion and perhaps most importantly, gives millions a respite from our so violent world,” said Audrey Hepburn.

“She was too good for Hollywood,” said Efrem Zimbalist, Jr., “but somehow she graced it,
her life shone on it, and it became a different place while she was around.”
