Zooey Deschannel is Loretta Lynn
The “New Girl” actress Zooey Deschanel is to play Loretta Lynn on broadway. Loretta Lynn who is 80-years-old said “It’s a long way from Butcher Holler to Broadway in New York City, I never imagined I’d see ‘Coal Miner’s Daughter’ on a movie screen, and now I can’t believe it’s going to be on a stage for people to see.” Lynn is excited to have Zooey play herself. Lynn plans to sit front row and watch how a poor Kentucky girl grow to be the first female country singer on broadway. In 1972, Lynn was the first woman named “Entertainer of the Year” by the Country Music Association and has released 70 albums.

Lady Gaga and the "White Devil"
Lady Gaga revealed in an interview that her past drug use was due to loneliness. She admitted that at 19-years-old she had mental and emotional problems. “I would go back to my apartment every day and I would just sit there. It was quiet and it was lonely. It was still,” said Gaga. “It was just my piano and myself. I had a television and I would leave it on all the time just to feel like somebody was hanging out with me.” This lead to cocaine use and dependency on the drug. “It was like the drug was my friend. I never did it with other people,” she said. “It’s such a terrible way to fill that void, because it just adds to that void, because it’s not real.” Lady Gaga had an epiphany and realized that the “white devil” was destroying her. She then decided to focus on her music.
