JOHN LENNON HANDWRITTEN LYRICS FOR "LUCY IN THE SKY WITH DIAMONDS" TO BE AUCTIONED OFF BY PROFILES IN HISTORY.

PROFILES IN HISTORY HOLLYWOOD AUCTION 44 MAY 14 & 15, SABAN THEATER, BEVERLY HILLS

John Lennon's handwritten lyrics for "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds" from Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band to be auctioned off by Profiles in History, run by Joe Maddalena, on May 14 & 15 at the Saban Theater in Beverly Hills, CA. John Lennon's draft of "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds" contains the opening lyrics to the song that was first inspired by his son Julian's nursery school drawing that he called by the same name (contrary to the belief that the title had a hidden reference to the drug LSD). Along with the lyrics are designs for the album cover and some "rocking horse people," and it is estimated to sell for $200,000 to $300,000. The song is regarded as one of the best songs from the Sgt. Pepper album that is regarded as one of the most important albums in the history of popular music.


Profiles in History Hollywood Auction 44 will have some of the most highly coveted cultural memorabilia to ever reach the marketplace. In upcoming releases we will detail esteemed film director Frank Darabont, world-renowned poster artist Drew Struzan and special effects and makeup wizard Greg Nicotero's donation of their lots' proceeds to the Red Cross for Japanese earthquake and tsunami victims. Other items up for auction include Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, the hero filming Chitty car estimated at $1,000,000 - 2,000,000, a historic handwritten letter from Walt Disney written in 1924 to Mickey Mouse creator Ub Iwerks urging him to come out to Hollywood to be Disney's lead animator. There will be over 1,600 lots between the two days of the auction with more highlights to be released shortly.


Make sure tune into the new season of Hollywood Treasures on SyFy later this year.

Enter For A Chance To Win Pass To See MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS In Austin

Enter For A Chance To Win Pass To See MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS on December 5th at 7:30 PM in Austin. MARY QUEEN OF SCOTS explores the turbulent life of Mary Stuart ( Saoirse Ronan ). Queen of France at 16 and widowed at 18, Mary defies pressure to remarry. Instead, she returns to her native Scotland to reclaim her rightful throne alongside her cousin Elizabeth I ( Margot Robbie ), who rules as England’s Queen. Rivals in power and in love, and female monarchs in a masculine world, the two must decide how to play the game of marriage versus independence. Determined to rule as much more than a figurehead, Mary asserts her claim to the English throne, threatening Elizabeth’s sovereignty. Betrayal, rebellion, and conspiracies within each court imperil both thrones – and change the course of history.

Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert?

Winona Ryder- An "Alienation" Expert? We're halfway checked out for the holiday weekend, so let's end with bit of comedy. A litigious videogame player is calling Winona Ryder to testify as an expert in "alienation." Erik Estavillo has filed a $1 million lawsuit in California Superior Court against Activision Blizzard, publisher of "World of Warcraft," saying it "maintain(s) a harmful virtual environment to many of its customers by forcing them to follow the game's sneaky and deceitful practices." The plaintiff says he suffers from several mental health problems brought on by WoW's "alienating" features, such as forcing beginners to walk or run to get from one point to another instead of speedier options available to those who master the game or buy an expansion pack. Estavillo says that the slow pace is "deceitful" because more time = more subscription revenue for Activision. Here's where Winona Ryder comes...

Sex Tape Review: Overly Sexual, Rude, Vulgar, and Absolutely Hilarious

The raunchy Sex Tape will divide audiences and critics, but who cares? Sex Tape suggests a growing practice among loving partners: that of making a raunchy testament of their escapades for posterity. But what happens when that evidence gets seen by friends, neighbors, and even the mailman? This is the plot that pits Jay (Jason Segel) and Annie (Cameron Diaz) in an effort to secure every iPad gift Jay has given, his record company playlists being the envy of the recipients, but which has also inadvertently spread the video to every device. The reason for the act - termed in the movie as pulling "the full Lincoln " for its three-hour length - stems from the couple's non-existent social life, brought on by the constant demands of their children. The couple has a lot to lose: a burgeoning business relationship between Annie and Hank (Rob Lowe) could end if the iPad she's given to Hank exposes the video, and so the couple sets out to reclaim and wipe the incrim...
