Transgender artists Zackary Drucker and Rhys Ernst are transitioning in
opposite directions and have captured their individual transformations
in the "Relationship" series, a collection of photographs on exhibit as part of Biennial 2014 at The Whitney Museum of American Art from March 7 to May 25.
The photo series is an intimate diary of the couple's love affair and their gender identity transitions -- Drucker from male to female
and Ernst from female to male. The photos span five years of their
relationship from 2008 to 2013. The photographs include tender embraces,
their bandaged bodies from hormone injections and also shots of
Drucker's growing breasts.

Drucker, 31, was born male in Syracuse, New York,
and is a graduate of Hampshire College. Ernst, 31, was born female in
Pomona, California, and graduated from the School of Visual Arts. She
had appeared on a TV reality show "Artstar," and he had been working for
MTV when the couple met in 2005. They now live in Los Angeles. The pair
have recently been hired to act as advisers on Amazon's new original
series, "Transparent."

Going public with their photographs as their relationship progressed seemed "organic," Ernst told ABC News.
"We stepped back and we had a huge body of work. It felt like a natural
choice. We didn't think about being in the closet. It's faithful to our
lives and has a lot of layers, not just to do with gender."
Drucker told ABC News their project was "was an impulse to investigate and to record and to be an inspiration."

The installation is part of three collaborative projects by Drucker, who
is a photographer, filmmaker and performance artist, and Ernst, a
director and filmmaker. They have also staged several events at the
Whitney, including a screening of their film, "She Gone Rogue," a series
of tarot card readings with the drag queen Flawless Sabrina, which sold
out.

"We have been very fortune to have had supportive family," said Drucker.
"Much of that has to do with our socioeconomic background -- also being
white. Lots of trans people are in very dangerous, precarious
situations because our culture does not create space for people who
exist outside the binary. These insidious elements of gender policing
trickle down and effect all of us."

But, added Ernst, "the biggest struggle for us outside being trans is
more about being emerging artists and struggling and trying to figure
out how to pay our bills and make a living. Practicing our art has been
really hard."
Larry Flynt's
company proposes singer do raunchy ads for clubs in U.S. and London and
says it can host a party for the singer when he turns 21
Kevin Winter/Getty ImagesJustin Bieber, strip club spokesman? The Hustler clubs have made him an offer.
Justin Bieber has been offered $1 million to front a strip club chain’s TV ads, Confidenti@l has learned.
The offer comes from the Hustler Clubs, headed by world-famous pornographer Larry Flynt, which are planning a nationwide campaign to get men to stop “outsourcing visits to strip clubs and from now on buy only American.”
In a leaked letter filled with grammatical errors, marketing directorDavid Lieberman
makes a bizarre proposal for a TV commercial that would involve Bieber
passionately kissing a woman clad in an American-flag bikini and burying
his face in her “38 Double D’s.”
Bieber would then say to the camera, “Keep it here in the good old U.S.
of A.” and “Keep the lap dances a-coming when you turn 21.”
Writes Lieberman: “That’s not really an ad, it’s actually a public service announcement for Justin’s legions of fans who (are) about to enter adulthood.”
The letter also proposes that Bieber do an ad for the Hustler Club in London, with a woman clad in a Union Jack bikini and the star saying, “Keep it here in jolly old England.”
Also offered: a party for Bieber and his dad, Jeremy, on the singer’s 21st birthday next March.

Lieberman writes: “There is a time honored tradition in this great
country of ours of fathers taking their sons to Strip Clubs when they
reach 21 to learn what it means to truly be a man, and Justin can set a
shining example in continuing that uniquely American rite of passage —
even though we know of course that Justin is Canadian.”
There’s also a warning that Charlie Sheen is next on the list if
Bieber declines. The letter declares ominously, “I’m sure that I don’t
have to tell you that this could be the last big offer that he will ever
receive.”
One of Flynt’s right-hand men — VP of Communications Arthur Sando — confirms that the offer stands.
“It came from our marketing department. Mr. Flynt gave his approval,” Sando says.
The proposal comes at a time when Bieber is under severe scrutiny. He’s
waiting to learn if police will prosecute him for vandalism over
egg-throwing accusations, and the LAPD is investigating a report that he
attempted to steal a cell phone. In addition, there have been lawsuits over his bodyguards’ behavior.
Vanished Girl, Mom Reunited After 4 Years Missing (ABC News)
A Florida woman was reunited with her 12-year-old daughter Saturday after a four-year separation.
Jodie
Borchert, of Deltona, Florida, had not seen her daughter, Cara Cox,
since she dropped off the girl with her father, Aaron Cox, for a weekend
visit in 2009.
Cox, 55, then abducted his daughter and fled the country, police said.
Since
2009, police from the Volusia County Sheriff's Office have searched for
the pair but they had no solid leads for years. However, police got a
tip on Monday that the pair was in the remote Hidalgo area of Mexico,
according to a statement by the Volusia County Sherriff's Office.
Working
with authorities from Mexico and the U.S. State Department, law
enforcement officials were able to find and arrest Cox and recover his
daughter. Police said the pair had been living under assumed names while
living in Mexico.
After Cox's arrest, Cara was flown back to Miami to be with her mother for the first time in four years.
"The
mother was waiting, anxiously waiting here in Miami for the plane to
touch down and for her to finally meet her daughter after all these
years," Brandon Haught of the Volusia County Sheriff's Office told ABC
News affiliate WFTV-TV in Orlando, Florida.
Cox
was in jail in Miami on a charge of interfering with custody and
awaiting extradition to Volusia County, Florida. The Volusia County
Sheriff's Office did not know whether or not Cox had retained a lawyer.
Miley Cyrus couldn’t attend the Billboard Music Awards in person — but that didn’t stop her from performing on the award show on Sunday.
The singer, who won Top Streaming Artist, performed “Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds” from the UK, where she’s on her BANGERZtour.
She was joined by Wayne Coyne of The Flaming Lips.
As Gossip Cop reported, the pair recorded their reimagining of The Beatles classic in March.
The awards appearance marked Cyrus’ first time on TV since her hospitalization last month. Check out the video below!
The "Yasss Bish" rapper hit the red carpet at the 2014 Billboard Music Awards with a long black dress with cutouts that give us quite the look at her enviable cleavage.
The 31-year-old kept her beauty look simple, opting for romantic waves with shimmery eye shadow and black eyeliner.
Oh, and plenty of attitude, too!
The whole look is quite the departure for Minaj who, until recently, was known for her completely over-the-top style that included plenty of cotton candy-colored hair and outfits.
Not anymore, though. She recently revealed to MTV that her new, more natural style is her new way to shock people.
"I went so far to the other side that there's only one place to go
from here," she told MTV News. "You can either continue doing costumes
or you can say, 'Hey guess what? This will shock them even more. Doing
nothing will shock them even more."
Shocking? Maybe. Beautiful? Most definitely.
