Alex Newhook rather than Pierre-Luc Dubois for the Canadian


Once the Pierre-Luc Dubois file was shelved, the Montreal Canadiens turned around and acquired the rights of young forward Alex Newhook from the Colorado Avalanche.  Kent Hughes traded the 31st pick, obtained from the Florida Panthers , and the 37th pick in the 2023 draft and defenseman Gianni Fairbrother, a 22-year-old prospect.  During his press briefing, Kent Hughes refused to talk about the Pierre-Luc Dubois case, since he is a player under contract with another team.  The Habs boss, however, was clear when asked if the trade to Colorado was done because it didn't work out with the Jets.

We could not have done both , admitted laconically Hughes.  Newhook, 22, had 30 points, including 14 goals, in 82 games last season. He added one assist in seven playoff games.  In 159 games with the Avalanche, he had 27 goals and 39 assists. He will become a free agent with compensation on July 1 if the CH does not sign a new contract with him.  The 1.78 m (5 ft 10 in) and 86.2 kg (190 lb) center won the Stanley Cup with the Avalanche in 2022.  The athlete from Saint-Jean (NL) was the 16th overall choice in 2019, immediately after that of forward Cole Caufield by the Habs.  Both Kent Hughes and Martin St-Louis have praised the versatility of the newcomer.  “  The versatility, the speed and the character that corresponds with what we want to establish with our team, in addition to the experience of having won the Stanley Cup.  »  — A quote from  Kent Hughes Hugues was once Newhook's agent, which certainly weighed in the balance.

When you know someone as a person, it's sure easier to know how they're going to fit into our locker room. And we are very convinced that he will be a good piece in the locker room.  The keys to the repechage At the moment, the Canadiens hold the fifth overall pick. Kent Hughes and his hockey men have not yet made their choice on the lucky winner, but the DG has not closed the door to other exchanges.  We definitely have more than one name in mind. We think that in fifth place, we will have a good hockey player, if we keep our choice. If we advance, we are even safer. And if we go back, it depends…  The Nashville Predators could be interested in this fifth pick. They have two first-round picks (15th and 27th) and, during a press conference Monday with its president David Poile, Barry Trotz did not hide that he had tried to improve his lot. He reportedly said Kent Hughes holds the keys to the draft .

David and I both picked up the phone trying to improve our rank , Trotz said.  You need to find the right dance partner to move forward. Everyone is trying to get into the top four, and it's reasonable to believe that these four teams will stick around.  It remains to be seen whether the 5th rank interests the new general manager of Nashville enough to bring him to waltz with Kent Hughes.

NHL Draft 2023: Winners and losers from Round 1, including Coyotes’ inexplicable picks

Watch Full


The Chicago Blackhawks won the NHL Draft. There. Done. It doesn’t matter what happens from here, because the Hawks got a generational talent in Connor Bedard who should be able to change their on-ice culture quickly and turn Chicago back into a winning team on his own.  Yes, he’s that damn good — and if the front office can put more help around him we’ll see something very special.  The issue is that the pick still feels so ... icky. There’s no better way to say it. We have a scenario here the best player in years is headed to one of hockey’s largest markets, to play for an Original Six team, with a fanbase that deserves a change in fortune — and yet, it’s still ridiculous this was allowed to happen.  We cannot just celebrate Bedard heading to Chicago without continuing to mention, over, and over again, that the Blackhawks organization orchestrated the largest sexual abuse coverup in professional sports history and walked away with a $2 million fine. We cannot allow the hype of Bedard lighting it up in the NHL distract us from the fact that lives are in tatters, families damaged, and careers ruined because the former Chicago brain trust decided sexual assault wasn’t worth dealing with if the team was winning.  There’s nuance here, and it’s really difficult to weigh it all out. Blackhawks fans deserve a great player. The city deserves Bedard. However, it all feels perfunctory when Rocky Wirtz was able to maintain ownership of the club, despite his disgusting response to questions about the sexual assault of Kyle Beach at a town hall meeting in 2022 designed to allow people to question senior leadership of the organization.  “If somebody in the company asks that question, we’ll answer it, and I think you should get on to the next subject. We’re not going to talk about Kyle Beach. We’re not going to talk about anything that happened. Now we’re moving on. What more do I have to say?”  Wirtz later apologized with a carefully-crafted message from his PR team, but the damage was done. The men directly responsible for the cover-up were gone, but the man at the top had no empathy for what took place. That’s why it felt vile to see Chicago rewarded with the No. 1 pick in the lottery when by any semblance of basic humanity, they should have received unprecedented punishment for allowing a player in their system to be repeatedly abused by a former coach.

Domingo German Yankees' Domingo German pitches perfect game against Athletics

 OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Since arriving in the big leagues six years ago, Domingo Germán has been anything but perfect.

Until now.



Watch Now

The New York Yankees right-hander pitched the 24th perfect game in major league history Wednesday night, retiring every Oakland batter in an 11-0 victory over the Athletics.

It was the first perfect game since Seattle Mariners ace Félix Hernández threw one against the Tampa Bay Rays on Aug. 15, 2012. There were three that season — but none since until Germán finished off the first no-hitter in the majors this year.

He joined Don Larsen (1956), David Wells (1998) and David Cone (1999) as Yankees to pitch perfect games. Larsen’s gem came in Game 5 of the 1956 World Series against the Brooklyn Dodgers.

“So exciting,” Germán said through a translator. “When you think about something very unique in baseball, not many people have an opportunity to pitch a perfect game. To accomplish something like this in my career is something that I’m going to remember forever.”

Coming off a pair of terrible starts, Germán (5-5) struck out nine of 27 hitters against the A’s, who have the worst record in the majors at 21-61.

The 30-year-old pitcher served a 10-game suspension last month after getting ejected from a game in Toronto for using an illegal sticky substance on the mound. His only previous complete game as a professional came with Double-A Trenton in April 2017.

Winless in six previous outings against Oakland, Germán threw 72 of 99 pitches for strikes. He mixed 51 curveballs and 30 fastballs that averaged 92.5 mph with 17 changeups and one sinker.

Ruralité : à la découverte de Pontrieux, le "village aux 50 lavoirs"



Jeudi 29 juin, le 13 Heures pose ses valises au village de Pontrieux, dans les Côtes-d'Armor, surnommé le "village aux 50 lavoirs". Pontrieux (Côtes-d'Armor) est un village breton chargé d'histoire, niché dans la vallée du fleuve Trieux. Il faut faire 20 km depuis la côte pour accéder à un petit port qui fut industriel, puis au barrage d'un ancien moulin qui marque l'entrée de cette petite cité de caractère. Sur sa place principale, se trouve une drôle de maison bleue du XVIe siècle qui fut une tour de guet. C'est l'emblème de la ville.  Un village connu pour ses lavoirs  Mais le charme pittoresque de Pontrieux tient surtout à ses lavoirs anciens. Une cinquantaine d'entre eux sont disséminés sur le fleuve, le long des propriétés privées. Ils sont inaccessibles au regard, à moins de partir en excursion en bateau. Les pilotes sont tous des étudiants de la ville. Le temps d'un été, ils racontent l'histoire singulière de leur village. Au temps de sa prospérité économique, le lavoir était ici un signe extérieur de richesse. Mais dans les années 1960, le village s'est détourné de ses lavoirs quand la machine à laver a fait son apparition. En 1990, une poignée d'habitants a créé une association pour les restaurer.

FC Metz will be one of the active clubs on the transfer market, even if some arrivals will depend on departures.  “The budget depends on the transfer window campaign since we will have income and expenditure (smile). Some players will be sold because they cannot stay in Metz or coveted by very big clubs. And we will have recruits. We have to get used to FC Metz to have added value from transfers. More sales than purchases, since we have two training centers in which we have spent millions and on which we expect returns. (…) There will be arrivals. We spent the whole day yesterday (note: June 07) with László Bölöni and Pierre Dréossi working on future recruits. We know that we will have to strengthen the backbone of the team. »

Eid ul-Adha: A Celebration of Unity in Diversity

 

Eid ul-Adha, one of the most significant festivals in the Islamic calendar, brings together Muslims from diverse backgrounds and cultures, highlighting the unity that transcends geographical boundaries. This celebration of diversity is a testament to the universal nature of Islam and the shared values that unite believers around the world. During Eid ul-Adha, Muslims from different countries and cultures come together to perform the same rituals and share in the joy of the occasion. Regardless of linguistic, ethnic, or cultural differences, Muslims recognize the common bond that connects them as part of the global Muslim community. The diversity observed during Eid ul-Adha is also reflected in the variety of traditions and customs associated with the festival. From different styles of clothing to unique culinary delights, the multicultural tapestry of Eid ul-Adha showcases the richness and beauty of Islamic traditions. This celebration of unity in diversity serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of embracing differences and fostering mutual respect and understanding. It encourages Muslims to appreciate the unique contributions and perspectives of individuals from various backgrounds and to build bridges of empathy and compassion. As Muslims celebrate Eid ul-Adha, they not only honor their shared faith but also embody the principles of inclusivity, acceptance, and harmony. This celebration stands as a symbol of unity, reminding us that regardless of our differences, we are all part of a larger global family, united by our beliefs and values.

Teaching Children the Meaning of Eid ul-Adha

 

Eid ul-Adha is a joyous occasion for Muslims worldwide, and it presents a valuable opportunity to educate children about the significance and values associated with this festival. By instilling an understanding of Eid ul-Adha from a young age, parents and educators can help children develop a deeper connection to their faith and foster a sense of gratitude and compassion. One way to teach children about Eid ul-Adha is by sharing the story of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) and his willingness to sacrifice his son. Engage children in age-appropriate discussions about the importance of obedience to God, trust, and the concept of sacrifice. Use storytelling, visual aids, or books that present the story in a relatable and understandable manner. Involve children in the preparations for Eid ul-Adha, such as helping with cleaning the house, decorating, and preparing special meals. This hands-on experience allows them to feel connected to the celebration and understand the significance of the occasion. Encourage acts of kindness and generosity in children by involving them in charitable activities. For example, together with children, prepare care packages or donate toys to less fortunate children. Engaging in such activities teaches children the value of sharing and caring for others. Lastly, encourage children to actively participate in rituals such as attending the Eid prayer or being present during the animal sacrifice. However, it is important to consider a child's age and sensitivity when exposing them to certain aspects of the festival, ensuring that they understand the concepts within their developmental capacity. By nurturing children's understanding of Eid ul-Adha, parents and educators can help them embrace the values of sacrifice, gratitude, and compassion that lie at the heart of this special occasion.

The Importance of Animal Welfare During Eid ul-Adha

 

Eid ul-Adha is a time when Muslims worldwide commemorate Prophet Ibrahim's act of sacrifice by offering animals in the name of God. While this ritual holds immense religious significance, it is essential to emphasize the importance of animal welfare and responsible treatment during this festival. Islam places a strong emphasis on compassion and kindness towards animals. The Prophet Muhammad himself spoke about treating animals with care and respect. Muslims are encouraged to ensure that the animals designated for sacrifice are healthy, well-cared for, and slaughtered humanely. Responsible practices during Eid ul-Adha include providing proper food, water, and shelter to the animals leading up to the sacrifice. Additionally, it is crucial to handle the animals with gentleness and minimize stress or suffering during the process. Adequate veterinary care and adherence to local regulations related to animal welfare should also be prioritized. Educating the community about these ethical considerations is paramount. Mosques, community organizations, and religious leaders can play a crucial role in raising awareness about animal welfare and encouraging individuals to choose reputable sources for their sacrifices. This ensures that the animals are sourced from places that adhere to ethical standards and prioritize the well-being of the animals. By promoting responsible and compassionate practices during Eid ul-Adha, Muslims can demonstrate their commitment to the principles of Islam and contribute to a more humane and ethical celebration of this important festival.

Celebrating Eid ul-Adha Amidst a Pandemic

 

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought significant challenges and changes to the way people celebrate various festivals around the world, including Eid ul-Adha. With restrictions on social gatherings and the need to prioritize safety, Muslims have found alternative ways to observe this important occasion while ensuring the well-being of their communities. Virtual celebrations have become increasingly popular during Eid ul-Adha in light of the pandemic. Muslims have utilized technology to connect with loved ones and share the joy of the festival remotely. Virtual gatherings, video calls, and online prayer services have enabled people to maintain a sense of togetherness despite physical distances. Adapting to the circumstances, many Muslims have also focused on acts of charity and supporting those in need. Donations to organizations serving the less fortunate have increased, allowing people to fulfill the spirit of generosity and sacrifice that Eid ul-Adha represents. Additionally, individuals have found creative ways to reach out to their communities, such as organizing drive-through food distribution or sending care packages to the vulnerable. While the pandemic has necessitated adjustments to traditional celebrations, it has also provided an opportunity for Muslims to reflect on the true essence of Eid ul-Adha—gratitude, compassion, and the willingness to adapt in challenging times. Despite the physical constraints, the spirit of the festival remains resilient and continues to inspire acts of kindness and unity.

The Rituals and Traditions of Eid ul-Adha

 

Eid ul-Adha, one of the most significant festivals in Islam, is marked by various rituals and traditions that hold deep meaning for Muslims worldwide. These customs serve as a way to commemorate the story of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) and instill the spirit of sacrifice and devotion in the hearts of believers. The day begins with the performance of the Eid prayer in congregational gatherings at mosques or designated prayer grounds. Muslims dress in their finest attire and come together to offer gratitude to God for His blessings. The prayer is followed by a sermon that reminds the community of the values and lessons associated with Eid ul-Adha. Another significant tradition is the sacrifice of an animal, usually a goat, sheep, cow, or camel, in commemoration of Ibrahim's willingness to sacrifice his son. The meat of the sacrificed animal is divided into three portions: one for the family, one for relatives and friends, and one for the less fortunate. This act of sharing and generosity symbolizes unity and the importance of caring for those in need. Eid ul-Adha also involves engaging in acts of charity, visiting friends and relatives, exchanging gifts, and preparing special meals. It is a time for families to come together, strengthen bonds, and create lasting memories. These rituals and traditions bring a sense of joy, unity, and spiritual fulfillment to the celebration of Eid ul-Adha.

"The Significance of Eid ul-Adha in Islam"

 

Eid ul-Adha, also known as the Festival of Sacrifice, holds great significance in the Islamic faith. This joyous occasion commemorates the willingness of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God. As the story goes, just as Ibrahim was about to sacrifice his son, God intervened and replaced the boy with a ram, symbolizing the ultimate act of submission and faith. Eid ul-Adha serves as a reminder for Muslims to emulate Ibrahim's devotion and willingness to sacrifice for the sake of God. It is a time of reflection, gratitude, and deepening one's faith. Muslims around the world celebrate this occasion by performing the obligatory Eid prayer, offering animal sacrifices, and distributing the meat to the needy. It is also a time for families and communities to come together, exchange gifts, and share meals. The essence of Eid ul-Adha lies in the values of sacrifice, compassion, and generosity. It encourages Muslims to remember those less fortunate and to share their blessings with others. Through acts of charity and goodwill, Muslims strive to deepen their spiritual connection with God and their fellow human beings.

What's Harrison Ford's hottest movie role? An investigation


 With Harrison Ford back on television and in theaters with the double-whammy of Shrinking and Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, fans of his six-decade (and counting) career are forced to reckon with an impossible question: When has Harrison Ford been his hottest?

When it comes to judging an actor with such a storied
 and rich career, qualitative hotness can be a slippery 
sucker to calculate. Just when you think you’ve got a 
handle on it, in swoops a furrowed brow in an Amish flick 
that strikes your fancy, or a shimmy in the sci-fi slacks
 that lands just so. And yet, though some might argue
 for subjectivity within such matters, I have come to the 
conclusion that there is only one likely suspect in this

Qui est Ellie MacDowall, la petite amie et soutien de Lewis Capaldi ?

 


Lewis Capaldi a annoncé la suspension de sa tournée mondiale après l’épisode de Glastonbury. Le chanteur va prendre du repos aux côtés de ses proches et notamment de sa compagne, Ellie MacDowall. Portrait Très attendue, la prestation de Lewis Capaldi au mythique festival britannique de Glastonbury ne s’est pas déroulée comme la star écossaise le souhaitait, même si elle a donné lieu à un émouvant moment. La faute au syndrome de Gilles de la Tourette dont souffre le chanteur et qui s’est une nouvelle fois manifesté sur scène, le contraignant, cette fois, à suspendre sa tournée. Une décision particulièrement douloureuse pour Lewis Capaldi qui va désormais prendre le temps de s’occuper de lui pour tenter de surmonter son problème. Pour ce faire, il peut compter sur une alliée dévouée, en la personne de sa petite amie, Ellie MacDowall. Lewis Capaldi : « C'est une femme charmante » Le couple s’est formé en novembre dernier et a officialisé sa relation en février. Il faut dire que les deux tourtereaux ont été surpris en train d’échanger un baiser sur un canapé après les BRIT’s Awards. Dès lors, une source proche du chanteur a affirmé que l’interprète de « Before you go » était « fou amoureux » et qu’il ne « pourrait pas être plus heureux ». En avril 2023, l’écossais de 26 ans a évoqué pour la première fois cette relation au micro de Scott Mills, alors qu’il abordait la symbolique de son single « Wish You The Best ». Une chanson d’amour rappelant le manque après le départ d’un être aimé. Interrogé par la suite sur sa volonté de se mettre en couple, l’artiste avait élégamment répondu : « J'ai une petite amie et ça se passe très bien. Je suis heureux, c'est une femme charmante. Je me sens bien dans tout ce que je fais. » Comédienne discrète et attentionnée A 23 ans, Ellie MacDowall est diplômée et a étudié la danse durant trois ans.

The body of British actor Julian Sands, missing since January, has been identified, authorities in California announced on Tuesday, after human remains were discovered by hikers on the mountain where he disappeared. "The identification process for the body found on Mount Baldy on June 24, 2023 has been completed and has positively identified Julian Sands," the San Bernardino Sheriff's Office said in a statement.

"The cause of his death is under further investigation, pending the results of additional analyses," he said. Human remains were found Saturday morning in nature by hikers, five months after the disappearance of the actor.

Disappeared last January

Julian Sands, who rose to fame in 1985 for his role in the James Ivory film "Room with a View", disappeared in January on Mount San Antonio, also known as Baldy, culminating at 3,000 meters above sea level. elevation, highest peak in the San Gabriel Range, near Los Angeles.

The 65-year-old actor was an experienced walker who said he was happiest when he was "near the top of a mountain on a glorious cold morning". California had been hit by a series of severe storms in December and January, accompanied by heavy snowfall across mountain ranges, including Mount San Antonio.

The peak where the actor vanished is a popular destination for Los Angeles residents. The San Bernardino County sheriff said at the time of his disappearance that the climb was increasingly dangerous, with eight known deaths between 2017 and 2022.

Le fils de Céline Dion dépense une véritable fortune dans un caprice

 Alors que Céline Dion traverse une période difficile, marquée par l’annulation de sa tournée mondiale et de problèmes de santé, d’autres éléments viennent perturber la star québécoise. Son fils aîné, René-Charles, aurait dépensé une somme considérable dans un achat dispensable.




Les fans de Céline Dion sont désespérés. Fin 2022, la chanteuse québécoise révélait d’être atteinte d’une maladie neurologique rare, le syndrome de l’homme raide, l’empêchant de marcher et de chanter correctement. Alors qu’elle avait déjà reporté les dates de sa tournée mondiale, elle a été obligée de les annuler purement et simplement, afin de poursuivre ses soins. Des problèmes de santé qui ne semblent pas être le seul souci de la star : son fils aîné, René-Charles, serait difficile à gérer.

René-Charles Angélil serait également touché par un vice qu’avait connu son père : l’addiction aux jeux. Il dépenserait ainsi énormément d’argent sur des sites de jeux en lignes, et se serait même fait bannir du casino de Las Vegas. Le jeune homme aurait même renoué une relation avec Angélique Weckenmann, une jeune femme avec qui il avait déjà eu une idylle en 2016, et dont la famille possède… Un hôtel-casino. Et pour le jeune René-Charles, la situation ne serait pas optimale, du moins selon sa mère, qui serait particulièrement inquiète.

Une voiture de luxe en dépense irraisonnable

Se décrivant comme « un entrepreneur nourrissant des ambitions dans la musique », René-Charles Angélil passerait plus de temps à organiser des soirées avec ses camarades qu’en cours. Toujours d’après Soir Mag, il mènerait "une vie d’oisif privilégié"» en comparaison de celles de ses camarades, et dilapiderait son héritage à travers un train de vie luxueux. Récemment, le jeune homme a fait une sacrée folie, en achetant une Mercedes-Benz AMG classe G63, estimée à plus de… 300 000 euros.

Un train de vie qui inquiéterait sa mère, déjà bien occupée avec ses soucis de santé. Selon des sources proches de la chanteuse, Céline Dion n’aurait plus de nouvelles de son fils, qui a quitté le domicile familial il y a quelque temps déjà. Des informations qui expliqueraient notamment pourquoi la chanteuse n’a publié aucune récente photo de sa famille au moment de la fête des mères, comme elle a coutume de faire. Un coup dur de plus pour la chanteuse, qui a dû annuler sa tournée à cause de son syndrome de l'homme raide.

YouTuber Colleen Ballinger Denies Allegations She ‘Groomed’ Fans in ‘Toxic Gossip Train’ Song

Colleen Ballinger has denied allegations she “groomed” and formed inappropriate relationships with underage fans.   The YouTuber, 36, who initially found fame with her alter ego Miranda Sings, recently took to social media to refute the claims through a song titled “Toxic Gossip Train.” In a YouTube video posted on Wednesday, June 28, Ballinger played the ukulele and claimed viewers were on a “one-way ticket to manipulation station” while the internet “ties me to the tracks and harass me for my past.”   Ballinger began her video by alleging that “some people are saying things about me that just aren’t true” and that “even though my team has strongly advised me not to say what I’m going to say, I realized they never said I couldn’t sing about what I want to say.”  The content creator then jumped into her tune, explaining that she used to message her fans “to be besties with everybody” but “didn’t understand that maybe there should be some boundaries there.” She added that had no plans to “take the route” of saying she is “100 percent in the wrong” and to do so would be “admitting to lies and rumors that you made up for clout.”

Pink liebt Berlin - Tourauftakt in Deutschland

Die deutsche Hauptstadt sei schon immer einer ihrer »liebsten Orte auf der ganzen Welt«, so die Sängerin


Watch Now

Beim Auftaktkonzert von US-Superstar Pink in Deutschland hat die Sängerin ihre Liebe für Berlin bekundet. »Deutschland – Berlin – war schon immer einer meiner liebsten Orte auf der ganzen Welt«, sagte die 43-Jährige am Mittwoch im Olympiastadion der Hauptstadt. »Ich bin so dankbar.« Beim ersten von sieben Konzerten ihrer internationalen »Summer Carnival«-Tour in Deutschland waren 60.000 Fans gekommen, wie ein Sprecher der Veranstalter am Abend sagte.
Einen Überraschungsgast hatte Pink auch mit im Gepäck. Ihre zwölfjährige Tochter Willow Sage Hart betrat mitten im Song »Cover Me In Sunshine« die Bühne und sang den Hit gemeinsam mit ihrer Mutter. Die Tausenden Fans waren davon sichtlich überrascht. »Sie hat den besten Applaus des Abends bekommen«, kommentierte Pink den Auftritt ihres Kindes. »Sie ist so gut, und sie strengt sich nicht einmal besonders an. Sie ist einfach so gut.« Das Duett mit ihrer Tochter hat Pink im Februar 2021 herausgebracht, als sie eigenen Angaben zufolge das Gefühl hatte, das Ende der Welt sei nah. Zu der Zeit war die Pandemie noch im vollen Gange.
IN DER LUFT SCHWEBEND Bei dem mehr als zweistündigen Konzert gab Pink - die bürgerlich Alecia Beth Moore heißt – sowohl ihre Songs vom im Februar erschienenem Album Trustfall sowie altbekannte Hits wie »Get The Party Started« oder »Raise Your Glass« zum Besten. Den letzten Song »So What« sang sie kopfüber in der Luft schwebend. Die dreifache Grammy-Preisträgerin ist für ihre akrobatischen Einlagen bekannt. Im Juli ist Pink noch bei weiteren Konzerten in München, Köln und Hannover zu sehen.
Alecia Beth Moore wurde am 8. September 1979 in Doylestown (Pennsylvania) geboren. Ihre Mutter Judith Moore, geborene Kugel, ist Jüdin. Pink beschrieb sich unlängst in einem Interview als »irisch-deutsch-litauisch-jüdisch«. Als Sängerin und Songwriterin hat sie seit dem Jahr 2000 neun Alben aufgenommen und acht große Tourneen absolviert. Als Schauspielerin trat sie in 15 Filmen auf, in denen sie zumeist sich selbst spielte.
