River Phoenix
Halloween isn't the same for me as it is for everyone else. 29 years now. You are so dearly missed River, as the Phoenix rises from the ashes once again. Love you much. 🤍🙏
August 23rd 1970- October 31st 1993🕊

JULY 26, 2001 The 'Wherehouse’ music store
Aaliyah signs autograph for fans at ’The Wherehouse’ music store in Los Angeles, CA to promote her newly released album that came out in the US a week prior, July 17th.
Wherehouse Entertainment, also known as Wherehouse Music and The Wherehouse, was an American retail music franchise.
In August 1998, Wherehouse purchased Blockbuster Music from Viacom. The company later filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 2002. In 2003, Trans World Entertainment purchased the remaining 148 Wherehouse stores and converted them to FYE brand.
Any fans here meet Aaliyah on this day?

E stasera è proprio una di quelle sere.
Sono ormai sei anni che sei andata via e dio, quante cose che avrei da raccontarti.
È da un po' che non ti scrivo, forse troppo, ma non mi sono dimenticata di te. Non potrei mai.
Sai, mi manchi.
Mi manca vederti preparare in cucina la tua insalata, le tue cotolette. Niente ha più lo stesso sapore senza te, e non sto parlando del cibo.
Sai? Ancora è Febbraio ma io stavo pensando alla primavera, a come ci divertivamo all'arrivo della primavera, noi due.
Piene di gatti in giro per il giardino, a montare l'amaca e le due altalene: una per la tua nipotina ed una per me, perché mi avevi viziata anche tu ed io volevo la mia altalena personale.
E tu e lui, nonostante io non fossi vostra nipote o vostra parente, l'avete costruita e appesa. Per me.
Non ti ho mai ringraziato abbastanza per esserti presa cura di me, per avermi fatto sentire amata e parte di una famiglia, io che quella che avevo era così instabile e piena di mancanze.
Scusami se non l'ho fatto prima, scusami per non averti ringraziata abbastanza e per non averlo fatto in tempo.
Ti chiedo scusa se a volte, presa dai miei drammi adolescenziali, non sono riuscita a capirti e a starti vicino come avrei voluto e come avresti meritato.
Sei stata una nonna, una mamma, un'amica, una zia e tutto questo senza essere niente.
Perché noi non eravamo nulla, nessun legame di sangue ci legava ma eravamo felici così.
Mi ha fatto tanto male vederti esalare l'ultimo respiro e vederti in quella bara..non potevo crederci.
Mi avevano detto di non venire quella sera perché stavi male ma io lo sapevo. Sapevo che sarebbe successo e ho deciso di restare fino alla fine al tuo fianco. Quando ci hai lasciati mi hai stretto la mano e mi hai guardata, poi hai guardato tutti gli altri e te ne sei andata.
Beh..devo dirti che è stata una bella botta. Penso che proprio queste siano le batoste della vita di cui si parla. Al tuo compleanno stavamo celebrando il tuo funerale e io avrei tanto voluto stare lì nella tua cucina a festeggiare, a bere brasilene che tu con tanta cura avresti messo in frigo per me. E invece non è stato così. E invece è andato tutto a rotoli.
Mi manchi tanto, oggi e sempre.

And right now finding words are hard. You wasn't supposed to leave but you were taken. I wish I would've said more to you. I'm sorry you're gone now. It's so unfair. I don't know when I'll see you again. I love you uncle. Sleep well wherever you are. 💕

Good Morning, Good Evening and Good Salutations wherever you are. This is the last new image I’ll be sharing of Layne & Demri. This is not the full image, @demri_lara_parrott has it on her schedule to share it at a specific date/time. • The photo is from a collage I purchased almost 3 years ago (I own 2 collages). This has absolutely not been altered in any way. As I’ve previously stated, Alison wants her photos watermarked if they’re shared, of course, we are always happy to oblige. • ©Alison Dyer 1992, Los Angeles, CA. • —————————————————— #nehistripesseattle #demrinlayne #lovecouples #gonetoosoon #laynendemri #everlastinglove #aliceinchains #magical #demriparrott #justlikeheaven #laynestaley #chainer4life #1990s #heaven #lovedalways❤️ #gorgeous (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CmzK2GppV5p/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Remembering William Teo. I walked through Fort Canning Park a few days ago on live stream, telling The NeoKeleLims Social Club all about the plays I performed there. William Teo was one of my best teachers. I learnt to sing in Sanskrit in the Fort Gates for Medea, I ran around as the mute Kattrin in Mother Courage at what used to be the roller skating rink. William taught me how to eat artichokes, we made gnocchi together as we rehearsed The House of Bernarda Alba. I can still hear his voice, passionately describing the sets & costumes of his plays, the sound of his cockatoo ShuShu, the trickle of the water in his lovely Bo Seng home. The last time I saw him was on Bintan Island. He was so thin & gaunt. I shall never forget you, dear William Teo. #gonetoosoon Photos: @neosweelin as Kattrin in Mother Courage & the messenger in Medea https://www.instagram.com/p/Coue_SHSEqF/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Andrea Feldman 1 April 1948 - 8 August 1972
Tumblr media
Some would describe true star quality as when the audience can’t tell when you’re acting. That’s what Penny Arcade artist and friend said of Andrea Feldman, “A lot of people in the Warhol scene pretended to be crazy, but Andrea really was.”
She was a rich girl, with a long list of inpatient stays at state hospitals. After a nervous breakdown in the interim of the release of Andy Warhol produced Heat, the third film in the Paul Morrissey directed Trash trilogy, (where she had a co-starring role, as a psychotic, masochistic, lesbian) Penny remembers Andrea’s nervous breakdown, her physician adamantly telling her parents that, that all Andrea needed to stop the hysterics was a real job. To which Andrea told Penny, “What am I supposed to do? Be a waitress?!” She believed she was destined for stardom and after starring in Heat, not just any old star, but a Superstar. Andrea would commit suicide shortly before the film’s release.
Tumblr media
Before Heat, Andrea had had a co-starring role in Trash. Where she plays an ex-debutante Rich Girl looking to score some acid from her heroin-addicted conquest Joe Dallesandro, “Is it acid? Is it acid?! Is it acid?!?!” she asks him while he shoots up, in a high-pitched affected upper east-side / British drawl. She rattles on about how she’s never done drugs, was a virgin before her marriage to her husband and has never seen anyone shoot up. She invites Joe to rape her, in a cuckolding of her husband, but he’s impotent. An immovable and disengaged force, an unapologetic junkie. A total counter to the Rich Girl’s fast-talking neuroticism. Feldman’s character is indicative of a housewife looking for some excitement. Asking if this is all there is, why can’t I have more? 
Andy Warhol never attended the filming of Heat instead he kept in contact with the cast and crew via telephone. All the actors provided were members of Warhol’s Factory and the principal shooting took place in Los Angeles for two weeks in July 1971. This distance allowed Warhol to stir the pot. Bob Colacello, writer and editor of Interview magazine and Warhol’s right-hand man said: “...Andy barraged Sylvia [Mills], Andrea, and Pat [Ast] with late-night calls from New York, stirring things up long distance.” He made Sylvia jealous of Pat’s high fashion (she wore expensive muumuus designed by Halston), Pat jealous of Sylvia’s star-billing, “and... it didn’t take much to drive poor Andrea crazy.”
Tumblr media
Andrea was a native New Yorker who attended Quintano’s a well-known, private performing arts high school in mid-town New York, that groomed its students for a career in the spotlight. Some well-known alumni included Mary Weiss from the heartbreak girl group the Shangri-Las and queen of the stage and screen Bernadette Peters. But the education provided there was subject to criticism, a letter from New York’s Division for School Regulation and Supervision observed pointedly, “there is no science laboratory, no library, and no gymnasium.” 
From the mid-1960s onwards, Quintano’s was the school of choice for rich kids who had faced expulsion or flunked out of their previous schools for non-attendance or anti-social behaviour. One previous attendee described the mix of students as “...the students who were there because they had real careers and you had the fuck ups.” It seemed, especially during the drug-fuelled days of the 1960s, that as long as the incredibly expensive tuition fees were paid, drug use and dealing were ignored by the faculty.
Tumblr media
Andrea pioneered a performance called “Showtime”, where she performed a striptease on a round table in the centre of Max’s Kansas City, and received her nickname “Whips”, after a dance she did with them for Warhol’s multimedia art event The Exploding Plastic Inevitable between 1966 and 1967. The event included music from The Velvet Underground & Nico who Warhol promoted as “The Pop Girl of ‘66″. Andrea craved Andy’s attention referring to herself as “Ms. Warhol”. Warhol was known for the flitting of his affections based on whose persona he found interesting at the time. Nico’s unaffected, stoic-german, coolness stood in stark contrast to Andrea who was known as “Crazy Andy” amongst her friends.
Tumblr media
Leee Black Childers, photographer at the Factory and Andrea’s boyfriend before her untimely death remembers an incident in which after a short absence documenting Andy Warhol’s Pork at the Roundhouse in London. “...She stood up on a chair and held a picture of Marilyn Monroe over her head... After a long time of just standing there, she said, ‘Marilyn died; love me while you can!’” Her suicide note would read “I’m headed for the big time. I’m on my way up there with James Dean and Marilyn Monroe”. She jumped to her death from the fourteenth-floor window of her uncle’s apartment, a few days after the tenth anniversary of Marilyn Monroe’s death at the age of 24. Perhaps Andrea identified with Monroe as like her she would later allege mistreatment by directors, depression, and the inability to be taken seriously as an actress.
Tumblr media
On the 8th of July 1972, Andrea made dates with all her ex-boyfriends so that they would be on the sidewalk below when she jumped. Geraldine Smith who had written Andrea’s Village Voice obituary sympathetically excluded this detail, and detailed how Andrea’s final message to her friends was one of love. According to Bob Colacello, and his connections at The Factory, Smith made no mention of the more scathing portions of Andrea’s suicide note, where she cursed Andy Warhol and Paul Morrissey, claiming abuse. She had conducted an interview in July 1972 with George Ford for Interview magazine, which never made it to print. “They just throw you in front of a camera - they don’t care what you look like. They just use you, and abuse you, and step on you, and they don’t pay you anything... I’m a damn good actress and I’ve been brought down by Warhol and I’ve been mistreated by them.”
Tumblr media
She died three weeks before the release of Heat, holding either “a rosary and a can of coke” or “a bible and a crucifix” on her descent. Judith Crist of the New Yorker described her performance in the film as “in large part non-performance, comes from the late Andrea Feldman, as the flat voiced, freaked-out daughter, a mass of psychotic confusion, infantile and heart-breaking.”

E mi manchi.
Mi manchi da far schifo e nonostante siano passati quattro anni da quando non ci sei più ti sento ovunque.
Ti sento nelle insalate di pomodori, che spero sempre siano le tue.
Ti sento nell'odore del caffè caldo, ecco perché lo preferisco a quello freddo.
Ti sento nelle canzoni, in ogni canzone sento qualcosa di te.
Ti sento dentro di me e dio se mi manchi.
Mi manchi quasi da fare schifo e a volte mi ripeto di non pensarti, di non restare ancorata al tuo ricordo perché, purtroppo, mi fa stare male.
Non sono ancora arrivata a quella consapevolezza di riuscire a ricordarti con il sorriso, o meglio a volte capita ma subito dopo mi sale quella tristezza, legata al fatto che tu non ci sei più.
Sono felice di ritrovarti nelle insalate, ma poi le mangio e non sono fatte da te.
Sono felice di sentirti nel caffè, ma sono io a prepararlo e a berlo, da sola.
Ti sento nelle canzoni, ma se le riascolto la seconda volta piango.
Sono felice di ricordarti e di immaginarti, ma poi torno alla realtà.
Mi manchi e non so a chi dirlo, perché vorrei dirlo a te.
Ma se tu fossi qui non mi mancheresti.
Avrei voluto passare più tempo con te, fare tante cose che ora avremmo potuto fare. Ora che sono grande.. Anche se per te sarei sempre stata la piccola, la tua piccola.
Mi manchi, ora e sempre da quattro anni.
E un giorno il tuo ricordo mi farà sorridere, anche se con una leggera malinconia.
Ma oggi no, oggi mi manchi.
