If you’re a fan of Warren Beatty, you must know for a fact that he has a biological sister; and that said sister is none other than Shirley MacLaine. MacLaine started her acting career ahead of Beatty and he didn’t want to gain popularity as Shirley’s brother.
When asked why Beatty was so interested in filmmaking over acting, MacLaine said “That’s why he’s more comfortable behind the camera, he’s in the total-control aspect. He has to have control over everything.” Beatty won an Academy Award for Best Director for “Reds” and earned nominations for Best Actor, Best Picture, and Best Screenplay. Wow, such a talented guy here!
KISS Bassist, Gene Simmons, Sans Makeup Or Costume
Pictured here is Gene Klein, professionally known as Gene Simmons, without any makeup or costume. The Israeli-American musician and television personality is the co-singer and bassist of rock band, KISS. The Demon (his famous stage persona) lives in Los Angeles with his wife, actress, and former Playboy Playmate, Shannon Lee Tweed.
Simmons used to date the Queen of Pop, Cher. Theirs was an odd, open relationship which Cher described as being, “the best relationship I’ve ever had with a human being.” She admitted that she was crazy about Gene. “Gene might spend time with another woman and stay the night, but he wants her to leave in the morning so he can get on with his day.”
David Bowie Modeling With Jan De Souza

The shot was taken by photographer, Fiona Adams, for a British Pop Music magazine back in 1965.

In the United Kingdom, he was awarded ten platinum, 11 gold, and eight silver album certifications. In the United States, he earned five platinum and nine gold certifications. By 1996, he was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Such an impressive music portfolio.
The Beatles And Their Partners
This photograph was taken in February of 1968 when the Beatles, together with their wives/girlfriends attended a Transcendental Meditation program at the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi’s ashram in Rishikesh, India. They first met Maharishi in 1967, while the famous Transcendental Meditation teacher was in England for a lecture tour. This particular trip of the famous band proved to be productive and gained a lot of media attention.
The English rock band, especially George Harrison, was instrumental in shaping Western attitudes and behaviors about Indian spirituality. They took time to promote the benefits and practice of Transcendental Meditation. It is believed and proven that this non-religious method promotes relaxation and self-development.
