Pink Cadillacs to line Detroit's streets in honour of Aretha Franklin We goin' ridin' on the freeway of love in my pink Cadillac," declared Aretha Franklin in her 1985 hit single "Freeway of Love." Now, more than three decades on, dozens of pink Cadillac owners will pay a special tribute to the "Queen of Soul" by lining up their cars in Detroit for her funeral Friday. The display is being organized by Crisette Ellis, whose husband, Bishop Charles H. Ellis III, serves as pastor at the Greater Grace Temple, where the funeral will be held. While the tribute is an apparent reference to the song that won Franklin her 12th Grammy (and its artwork, which features the singer in a pink Cadillac), Ellis told NPR that the idea was inspired by the way police line up their vehicles to honour fallen officers. "My husband said, 'Wouldn't it be awesome if we could have a sea of pink Cadillacs parked on Seven Mile Road to greet Ms. Aretha Franklin as she arrives?'" she told the radio show. At the time of that interview, Ellis said more than 130 pink Cadillacs would be participating. Described by the Detroit church as its "First Lady," Ellis also works as a sales director for the cosmetics firm Mary Kay, which is known for rewarding top employees with pink Cadillacs. Ellis said she expected vehicles from as far afield as Texas and Florida. The tribute is sure to attract attention. Earlier this week, when Stuart Popp of Plymouth, Michigan arrived in Detroit in his pink 1956 Cadillac Grand Seville, the singer's fans reportedly posed in his vehicle for pictures and sang "Freeway of Love." Popp told CNN he was asked to drive in Franklin's funeral procession. "This was way bigger than I thought it was going to be," he said. "I was a fan of her music." A car company with history Cadillac was founded in Franklin's home city of Detroit in 1902. Another of the company's cars -- an ivory 1940 LaSalle -- was used to transport the singer's body to the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History, where it was on display in a gold-plated open casket earlier this week. (There will be a second public viewing at the New Bethel Baptist Church on Thursday.) This 1940 Cadillac LaSalle transported Aretha Franklin's body to the Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History for a viewing on Aug. 28, 2018 The vintage hearse is the same one used to transport the bodies of the soul singer's father, famed civil rights figure the Rev. Clarence LaVaughn Franklin, and civil rights activist Rosa Parks. The cars will line up at the church from before the start of the service. Bill Clinton and Smokey Robinson are expected to speak at the funeral, which will feature performances from artists including Stevie Wonder, Jennifer Hudson and Ariana Grande. bbc

Three Sisters This is an amazing example of a before-and-after family photo of three sisters who were clearly very close with each other. It’s sad to know that one of the sisters passed away before the photo on the right was taken, but they memorialised her beautifully.

Guy Guide: How to Answer Those 10 Dreaded Questions, Every Woman Asks 1. “DOES THIS MAKE ME LOOK FAT?” A guy’s first thought is probably something along the lines of, “Can’t she look in the mirror and see for herself?” When a woman asks this, she loves the outfit but is paranoid that it might show off the wrong kind of curves. First of all, “yes” is obviously the wrong answer. “No”, “Absolutely not!” or some other variation is good. If the clothes really do look bad on her, tell her she looks great, but you just don’t think that style suits her as well as another outfit. This is a good time to point out an outfit you know she likes. She’ll love that you’ve noticed what she’s wearing and forget the initial question. 2. “DO YOU THINK SHE’S PRETTIER/HOTTER THAN ME?” The answer is always an obvious no. If you get caught looking at another woman, don’t worry. Fix the situation by telling her you were just thinking about how lucky you were to find such a beautiful woman and were just noticing how no other women can compare. We know it’s BS, but we appreciate the effort. 3. “AM I LIKE MY MOTHER?” This one is really tricky. It depends on why she’s asking and whether she likes her mother. Basically, if it’s a bad thing, say no. If she loves her mother and wants to be like her, say yes. Think it through before answering, but think quickly. 4. “WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?” Strangely enough, I’ve had guys ask me this more than I’ve asked them. It’s definitely a deer caught in headlights moment – the moment she asks you, your mind will probably go blank. Unless you’re thinking something horrible about her (and why would you be?), just be honest. If she hates the answer, she might just stop asking. On the other hand, it could just help her find out what a fun, goofy guy you really are. 5. “WHAT DON’T YOU LIKE ABOUT ME?” This is a trap. It usually comes up before or during a fight. Resist the urge to go down the list of faults, because it doesn’t end well. My advice is to either refuse to answer or give a compliment. One of the best responses I’ve heard (yes, I was stupid enough to ask this) is this gem: “You’re perfect to me and I love everything about you.” It’s sweet and arguing with it just makes the girl look like an ass. 6. “HOW DO I LOOK?” This isn’t so bad. Just make sure you actually look at her before answering. A simple “Great!” tossed over your shoulder while watching Sports Center isn’t good enough. Take 10 seconds to give us that up and down look you used to give us and tell us we look hot. Try to use more than one or two words once in a while, though. 7. “DID YOU NOTICE ANYTHING DIFFERENT?” Welcome to pure panic mode. Yes, we see the gears starting to grind as your eyes get wide, trying to take in every minute detail at once. And yes, we do like to watch you squirm. We also expect you to notice what’s different. I’m sorry, but there’s only one real right answer. Notice the difference and answer correctly. 8. “ARE YOU LISTENING TO ME?” There are only two right answers to this one. A) Say yes and be able to back it up by repeating back her last few sentences. B) Say no, but have a damn good reason why you weren’t. More often than not, it should be A. 9. “DO YOU LIKE MY FRIENDS/FAMILY?” We all imagine our significant other will absolutely love our friends and family. Of course, sometimes we can’t stand our family and friends either. I highly recommend being as honest as possible without being rude. Hell no is not an appropriate answer. Just say you like them, but you just don’t have much in common. We know the code, it’s okay. 10. “WHERE’S THIS GOING?” Congratulations, your woman is ready for the next step. The question is, are you? Don’t lie on this question. It will come back to bite you in the ass. Be honest. If you’re not ready to move in together or get married, say so. Give her valid reasons. She’ll either like it or she won’t. Either way, don’t lead her on. Every guy will hear at least most of these multiple times in his life. Don’t panic. Breathe, think and answer carefully. How will she respond? Depends on how much she wants to torture you that day.

'Top Gun' sequel films aboard US aircraft carrier The sequel to the 1986 Hollywood blockbuster "Top Gun" is filming aboard the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln. A 15-member crew from Paramount Pictures and Bruckheimer Films went aboard the Lincoln. The Navy declined to provide details about the exact role the service will play in supporting production but one official told to CNN that US Naval aviators will be flying in the movie. Paramount Pictures will reimburse the Navy for any costs associated with flying sequences that do not meet training objectives. The hugely anticipated sequel began filming on May 31, according to an Instagram post from Tom Cruise. The image features him wearing a flight suit near a fighter jet while holding the same helmet he wore in the original film. It features a line from the original movie: 'Feel the need.' 'Stylistically it'll be the same,' Cruise said in an interview with Access Hollywood in 2017. 'We'll have big, fast machines...it's going to be a competition film like the first one and it's going to be in the same vein, the same tone as the first one, but a progression for Maverick.' Tom Cruise Reveals The Title For The 'Top Gun' Sequel! The sequel, which is entitled "Top Gun: Maverick", is scheduled to be released July 12, 2019.

Grandpa In Hospital A man goes to visit his 85-year-old grandpa in hospital. "How are you grandpa?" he asks. "Feeling fine," says the old man. "What's the food like?" he asked. "Terrific, wonderful menus." says the old man. "And the nursing?" inquired the young man. "Just couldn't be better. These young nurses really take care of you." "What about sleeping? Do you sleep OK?" "No problem at all - nine hours solid every night. At 10 o'clock, they bring me a cup of hot chocolate and a Viagra tablet ... and that's it. I go out like a light." The grandson is puzzled and a little alarmed by this, so rushes off to question the nurse in charge. "What are you people doing," he says, "I'm told you're giving my 85-year-old grandfather Viagra on a daily basis. Surely that can't be true?" "Oh, yes," replies the nurse. "Every night at 10 o'clock we give him a cup of chocolate and a Viagra tablet. It works wonderfully well. The hot chocolate makes him sleep, and the Viagra stops him from rolling out of bed."
