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.

Movie Review: #Vacation

Vacation makes me want to take a STAY-cation. Review by Matt Cummings It's not too often that a movie makes me wish film never existed, yet her I am ready to give the newest Vacation all the hate it deserves. And hate on it I will. Grown-up Rusty (Ed Helms) is stuck in a dull marriage to Debbie (Christina Applegate), who's been forced year after year to spend vacation with her family at a cabin in Michigan. When the overly optimistic Rusty realizes his family needs a change, he packs them up for a trip to Walley World, the site of his greatest trip as a teen. But soon, his family begins to encounter difficulties and flat-out disasters that could end their road trip and return Rusty's marriage back to square one. It might surprise our readers to know that someone from our team actually considered walking out of Vacation , and we get to see these films for free. That's how bad our experience became as we sat mesmerized by its 99 minutes of ineptit...

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...
