Pop & Circumstance: Are You Kidding Me?

For the past week I’ve been stuck in Mad Men mania, pondering at length the intricacies of Don Draper’s genius and trying to see how many cupcakes I can eat to successfully get Joan Holloway’s curves. However, I did take a brief break during commercials to poke my head out and survey the lay of the pop culture land. Let me tell you–I was dumbfounded by the latest pop culture news.
Head on over to UrbanFaith.com to check out my latest installment of Pop & Circumstance. This week I’m throwing out all the tough questions I’ve been pondering, like the hype over R. Kelly and the sleeper hit District 9. As always, be sure to leave a comment.
Quote Wall: Lauren Graham on Actors and Faith
Lauren Graham, star of The Answer Man, a new film about a self-help author and his personal battles with spirituality, recently sat down with Newsweek to share her thoughts on finding faith in Hollywood. Here’s what she had to say:
Newsweek: Do you think it’s possible to be spiritual and an actress in Hollywood?
Lauren Graham: Of course. I think it’s possible to be spiritual and an anything. There is no job that would take that away. I think, in fact, being an actor or any kind of an artist you’re thinking more about why people do what they do and kind of what it all means because it’s your job to relate to different life experiences.
