McGuinty defends Ont. tax credits for racy film; politicians are not censors

2008-06-28T23:42:00.001-07:00

TORONTO - Politicians should not engage in censorship of movies, art, literature or architecture, Ontario Premier Dalton McGuinty said Wednesday as he defended the use of provincial tax credits to help fund a controversial new movie about the sex lives of young singles.

"Young People F**king," which is described as a romantic comedy, had its debut at the 2007 Toronto International Film Festival and will be released Friday in theatres across Canada.

The film's producer, Steve Hoban, said the small-budget movie, a $1.4-million production, received $80,000 in federal tax credits and $120,000 in provincial tax credits.

Hoban said that was far less than the income tax paid on the film crew's estimated $1 million in salaries, and said the federal tax credits were designed as a labour incentive and really have little to do with culture.

"It's a funny thing because it's really become the lightning rod for this issue," he said. "The way I look at it, that $80,000 in federal tax credits could destroy the multi-billion dollar film industry (in Canada)."

While the federal Conservative government looks to eliminate tax credits from movies it considers offensive, McGuinty said artistic decisions are best left to artists, not politicians or government bureaucrats.

"I'm not familiar with the movie, and I'm not particularly in favour of getting involved in censoring various artistic endeavours," McGuinty told reporters.

"I just think there's trouble down that path if we start making those calls as elected officials when it comes to what has and does not have artistic merit."

The film has frequently been cited in the debate over the federal Conservative government's proposed Bill C-10, which would allow Ottawa to retroactively strip tax credits from films that the heritage minister deems are "offensive or not in the public interest."

A special screening in Ottawa was well-attended by opposition MPs, although no Conservative members showed up. A staffer for Cambridge Conservative MP Gary Goodyear was fired for reserving a ticket in his name without permission.

McGuinty said he doesn't agree with the federal legislation, and he doesn't think politicians should have a say in artistic matters, despite the fact that governments often fund such enterprises with taxpayers' money.

"There are a lot of people who commented on the Crystal at the Royal Ontario Museum, to say they don't like it," McGuinty said, referring to the Toronto museum's futuristic new addition. "I think it's fantastic and provocative."

"I just don't think we politicians should be getting into lending a shape to building designs, what poetry is acceptable and not, and what movies are acceptable and not," he added.

Ontario's Progressive Conservatives expressed support for the federal legislation and said the province should be careful about putting taxpayers' money into movies that many would say have too much sexual content.

"I don't know what the contents of the movie are, but certainly the title would suggest that it's something that generally taxpayers would not be too damned enthused about having their money put into its production," said Opposition Leader Bob Runciman.

"I think there should be a clear demarcation in terms of what's suitable for tax dollars to support."

But Culture Minister Aileen Carroll said she is "very comfortable" with the work of the Ontario Movie Development Corp., the agency that decides which movies will receive provincial tax credits.

"I think they apply the Criminal Code and existing case law, and in so doing they're dispensing public funds in a very responsible and standard manner," she said.

Taylor Swift Tops 50 Million MySpace Streams & Has Country's #1 Selling CD for 20th Week

2008-06-28T23:41:00.001-07:00

Taylor Receives Top RIAA Honors for Gold & Platinum Sales Certifications

NASHVILLE, Tenn., June 23 -- Triple-platinum-selling
recording artist and internet sensation Taylor Swift reached another online
milestone this weekend, surpassing the 50 MILLION mark for music streams on
MySpace, where she is consistently ranked Country's #1 artist. Taylor, who
averages over 5 million MySpace streams each month, was nominated just last
week for a 2008 Teen Choice Award for Breakthrough Artist.

This week, the Recording Industry Association of America's (RIAA)
announced that Taylor was awarded the highest Gold & Platinum certification
of any artist in any genre in the month of May. Taylor Swift received 3x
Multi-Platinum prestige to commemorate sales exceeding 3 million since its
2006 release. Additionally, Taylor gained Gold Mastertone certification for
filling more than 500,000 phones with her hit single 'Our Song.' In
addition, Taylor has been awarded two Digital Platinum certifications (1
million downloads) and two Digital Gold certifications (500,000 downloads).

Also this week, Taylor's self-titled debut CD, released on Big Machine
Records an amazing 86 weeks ago, continues to pick up steam in stores,
spending its 20th week at #1 atop Billboard's Country CD Sales chart. This
accomplishment places Taylor in an elite group-the only other country
artists this decade to hold the #1 sales position for 20 weeks or more are
the Dixie Chicks and Carrie Underwood.

Widely hailed as the first bonafide country superstar of the MySpace
generation, 18-year-old Taylor Swift currently has singles climbing both
the country and pop radio charts. At the age of 17, Taylor became the
youngest person to single-handedly write and sing a number-one country
single entirely on her own ("Our Song" spent 6 consecutive weeks at #1 atop
Billboard's Country Singles Chart), and she is the first female solo artist
in country music history to write or co-write every song on a
platinum-selling debut CD. At 14, she signed a publishing deal with
Sony/ATV Music, and in 2006 released her self-titled debut CD on Big
Machine Records. Taylor Swift has reached Triple-Platinum (3 million sales)
status. Taylor was named Country Music's Hottest Female Artist of 2007 by
AOL Music and Best New Artist of 2007 by the editors of iTunes.

Taylor was named this year's Top New Female Vocalist by the Academy of
Country Music, and won 2008 CMT Music Awards for Video of the Year and
Female Video of the Year. She was recently named Superstar of Tomorrow at
the 10th Annual Young Hollywood Awards, making her the first musician to
ever receive this prestigious award. She is the reigning CMA Horizon Award
winner, as well as the Nashville Songwriters Association International's
Songwriter / Artist of the Year. Taylor is featured on the covers of the
June, 2008 issues of Seventeen and Southwest Airlines Spirit magazines, and
has also recently appeared on the covers of Rolling Stone, Billboard,
Blender, and USA Weekend. Taylor was named one of People magazine's 100
Most Beautiful People of 2008, and is featured on Maxim's current Hot 100
list. She is on tour this year with Rascal Flatts, and has also toured with
George Strait, Kenny Chesney, Tim McGraw & Faith Hill and Brad Paisley.

Shirley Bassey - Bassey Scraps Mandela Concert Performance

2008-06-28T23:39:00.001-07:00

DAME SHIRLEY BASSEY has been forced to pull out of a performance at Nelson Mandela's 90th birthday concert in London this week (27Jun08) - after failing to recover in time from a stomach operation last month (May08).

The Big Spender singer, 71, underwent emergency surgery in Monaco, France after suffering from abdominal pains.

She has been resting at her Monaco home for the last few weeks, where her spokesman Paul Carey said she was "on the road to a full recovery".

But Bassey has now cancelled her slot at the 46664 concert, which will pay tribute to the former South African president, because she has been advised against travelling in her condition.

Carey says, "On the advice of her surgeon, Dame Shirley Bassey will now not be able to perform as scheduled at the Nelson Mandela 46664 concert.

"Dame Shirley has been advised not to travel at the present time, so as to aid her continued full recovery following surgery last month."

The 46664 concert is due to take place in London's Hyde Park on Friday (27Jun08).

Salma Hayek - Hayeks 35 Million Wedding

2008-06-28T23:35:00.001-07:00

SALMA HAYEK will marry her billionaire fiance FRANCOIS-HENRI PINAULT in a spectacular $3.5 million (GBP1.75 million) celebration next spring (09), according to reports.

The couple announced their engagement and Hayek's pregnancy last year (07), which was followed by the birth of daughter Valentina in September (07).

Hayek and Pinault have enjoyed a low-key relationship, but sources tell the National Enquirer that the 46-year-old French boss of fashion houses Gucci, Yves St. Laurent and Balenciaga will dig deep for a five-day-long wedding ceremony in St. Tropez, France.

An insider reveals, "It took Francois over a year to get Salma to agree to marry him, and he doesn't want to spare any expense. Francois basically gave her the key to the vault and said, 'Go wild.'"

The tabloid claims the pair will fly their friends in on private jets; put them up in luxury resorts; spend $500,000 (GBP250,000) on a wedding dress and almost $1 million (GBP500,000) on flowers.

US band accuse Coldplay of copying

2008-06-28T23:34:00.001-07:00

US indie band Creaky Boards have claimed that Coldplay stole the melody for 'Viva La Vida' from them.

The Brooklyn band have posted a clip on YouTube splicing together segments of their track, 'The Songs I Didn't Write', and Coldplay's release.

Andrew Hoepfner, the band's songwriter, alleged that Chris Martin may have stolen their melody after watching them at the CMJ festival in New York last October.

The YouTube posting features a caption, which reads: "We were flattered when we thought we saw Chris Martin in the crowd that night. He seemed pretty into it. Maybe too into it.

"Anyway, I wish Coldplay the best of luck. If they ever want to collaborate, I've got some microphones we could use in my bedroom. I'm gonna get ready to play a show now. I hope the sound guy remembers to pass the tip jar... "

Coldplay have denied the accusations, arguing that their track was first demoed in March 2007.

'Viva La Vida' is the title track from the band's latest studio album, which charted at number one yesterday.
