We wouldn't expect him to shy away from this kind of content!

Because there seems to be literally nothing that James Franco cannot do, the actor recently directed Sal, a film based on '50s icon Sal Mineo, over the course nine days in Los Angeles, and photos from the project, which will reportedly focus on the last days of the late, gay actor's life in 1976, have been released!

Ch-ch-check them out (above and below)!

Certainly seems like a lot of skin, which

Ugh! Such a shame, but may his soul rest in peace!

Eric Swenson, an icon in skateboarding culture who is credited as "one of the critical architects" of reinvigorating the sport after opening Independent Trucks manufacturing company in San Francisco and co-founding Thrasher magazine, passed away on Monday

The 64-year-old shot himself in front of the Mission police station, but no details have emerged as to why he would take his own life.

The company he opened with friend Fausto Vitello manufactured a high-quality truck (the metal connector between the skateboard and its wheels) that allowed boarders to execute the incredible tricks we see performed on rails and curbs today.

On top of his technological advancements in the sport, his magazine helped raise awareness about an entirely new generation of skateboarders and pushed the sport back into the public eye.

So sad, but no one can say he didn't

It's being released next month (that's June for those of you keeping track) and will cost $29.99!

It looks pretty uncanny to us. Grace Kelly is a universal icon at this point, so maybe this will be a good way to bring her back into the lives of a new generation!

We wonder how she'd feel about her likeness being used!

Rejoice!

Dolly Parton announced today that not only will she be releasing a brand new album this summer, called Better Day, but she'll be embarking on a massive world tour through the US, the UK, Europe, and Australia to promote it!

The iconic singer will be premiering her lead single, Together You & I, as part of a live performance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show May 26th, with the album following in either June or July!

She explains:

"I wanted to do an album that would be very uplifting and positive, as well as inspirational. Times are hard all over. I think people need to feel better and I thought BETTER DAY was a perfect title because it says 'hope.' I wrote all the songs for this one; plus, I think it may be a little more contemporary than what I usually do. I'm very excited, first of all, to be going back on tour at all. But I love the fans and I miss the live stage shows. With the new stage show I hope to have a lot of new things for the fans, especially all the new songs from the BETTER DAY CD and some new and different segments in the show with a lot more fun things as well. Of course, we will always be doing our biggest and most popular songs. We're looking for a good time for ourselves as well as for the fans."

So exciting! It really sounds as though she put a lot of thought into this whole project, and we think it's going to show - in the music AND the live tour!

We're so thrilled!

Welcome back, Dolly! It's been far too long!
