Pamela Anderson blown away by Beyoncé tribute: 'I didn't even know she knew who I was'
Pamela Anderson was blown away when Beyoncé Knowles-Carter paid homage to her legendary style. Anderson appeared on "Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen" with co-star Liam Neeson on Aug. 3 to promote their newly released film "The Naked Gun." During the show, Anderson was asked her thoughts about Beyoncé channeling her in some of her "Cowboy Carter" visuals last fall. During the interview, Anderson gave her stamp of approval. "I didn't even know she knew who I was, and then I saw that tribute because someone sent it to me" Anderson said. "I was just wowed. First of all, Beyoncé knows who I am and she did a good impression." Last November, Beyoncé showed off several different costumes in a five-day Halloween celebration — dubbed "Beylloween." For her last look, Beyoncé channeled Anderson while rocking voluminous platinum blond hair with bangs and posing in different looks as the '90s icon. In a video, which she captioned "Beywatch" in reference to the popular television series "Baywatch," Beyoncé sang along to her 2024 song "Bodyguard." In the snippet she holds up a "vote" sign, and at the end of the video a black screen reads "Happy Beylloween. Vote." And Anderson seemed to be well-pleased then, too, as she quickly reposted Beyoncé's rendition to her own Instagram story. The actress shared the photo in which Beyoncé took on Anderson's persona in the 1996 film "Barb Wire." In the story post, Anderson wrote, "don't call me bey...," making a reference to her iconic line in the movie while also sharing a heart emoji. Bey also used the moment to tease fans. It marked the first time Beyoncé fans, who have been urging the singer to release visuals, have seen some sort of video to coincide with her music in a few years. In another post she shared more shots of her Anderson alter ego. In the background of one photo, it playfully reads "no visual awards" instead of "MTV Video Music Awards." Of course, the Grammy-winning singer closed out her Cowboy Carter and the Rodeo Chitlin' Circuit Tour at Allegiant Stadium in Vegas on July 26. She ended her run with a bang, bringing out Destiny's Child, Jay-Z and Shaboozey for surprise performances. The concert signaled the end of her "Cowboy Carter" era — a 32-stop stadium tour that spanned the U.S. and Europe. The tour became highest grossing country tour with over $400 million in earnings.

How San Francisco's Castro is hoping to bring back its legendary Halloween celebration
San Francisco's Castro district is hoping to reclaim its place as the city's Halloween hub by reviving a long-dormant tradition — this time with a modern twist. Organizers plan to host a special edition of the monthly Castro Night Market on Oct. 31, again transforming the historic LGBTQ+ neighborhood into a festive nighttime celebration on Halloween. 'The last couple of years, Civic Joy Fund has pushed to bring Halloween festivities back to the Castro — a neighborhood where San Franciscans have traditionally celebrated the holiday — in a safe, joyful way that supports small businesses in the neighborhood,' a spokesperson for the nonprofit said Monday, Aug. 11. The night market, typically held on the third Friday of each month, will shift to Halloween this year, as the calendar brings the holiday to a fifth Friday. Organizers hope to expand the event's footprint along 18th Street and include live entertainment stages, pending city approval. The effort follows years of scaled-back Halloween activity in the Castro after a series of violent incidents, including a mass shooting in 2006, led city officials to shut down the legendary street party. The tradition began in 1948 with a children's festival hosted by Cliff's Variety and grew into one of San Francisco's most prominent LGBTQ+ events by the 1970s. Since 2023, the neighborhood has seen a more subdued but growing return of Halloween celebrations, supported by merchant grants and community groups, including the Civic Joy Fund — the nonprofit, co-founded by Manny Yekutiel, owner of Manny's café in the Mission, and Mayor Daniel Lurie, to revitalize San Francisco's commercial corridors. Permitting and programming details are still in progress, but organizers are optimistic. 'Our partners at CG Events are currently working on the permitting for the event, so nothing is set in stone as of yet,' the spokesperson added.

Column: Even in death, Aurora's beloved Christmas lady reflected a Hallmark life
Karen Bozarth was all about spreading goodwill toward men – and women and children. And not just at Christmas, her favorite holiday season, but throughout the entire year. Her last Facebook post, on July 25, in fact, was a happy reminder that Christmas was only five months away, part of her monthly countdown that was but a small indication of how much Aurora's 'Christmas Lady' loved that magical time of year. Karen, who had been battling heart issues, died in her Aurora home on Aug. 7 at age 61. But those who loved her – and there are many – take comfort in knowing she passed away enjoying one of her favorite activities: watching a Hallmark movie. While that last romantic storyline she was watching centered around Valentine's Day, Karen's favorites from this cable channel were its Christmas movies. Which makes sense as she and her husband of 31 years, Jim Bozarth, became well-known for their magnificent Christmas House, which WGN-TV featured last December. I first met Karen when I wrote a column about their holiday home in Orchard Valley subdivision, where every room was turned into a magical wonderland with 35 trees, 300 snowmen and hundreds of wreaths, figurines and yuletide mementoes. Then there was the basement, which contained 13 tables filled with a spectacular Department 56 Snow Village collection that included more than 400 buildings and over 1,000 accessories, with hundreds of moving parts, as well as a train circling the 56 separate villages. The Bozarths held an annual open house that allowed thousands of people over the years to enjoy this holiday wonderland. That's how I first met Karen, when someone told me about the display and I went to see it for myself. I certainly did not know Karen well. But it didn't matter. She was one of those people you can't forget because she exuded the kind of warmth and happiness that makes you feel as if you've known her for years. 'One of a kind' sounds so cliche, yet those words, which have been used frequently to describe Karen as the Facebook tributes began flowing, really do sum up who she was inside and out. 'There are some people who have sun inside them,' one Facebook post said. 'It's hard to explain. Their presence just brightens. It's not about their beautiful smiles. They have an internal being that sheds light and feels like sun. It's a calm energy, inner peace. But most importantly, it's not wanting anything in return. It's sun.' Other posts also talked about how special Karen was as a person. 'There will never be another like her.' 'If you knew her you loved her.' 'This woman was the light in everyone's life; the most lovely person you could ever meet.' 'She was one of God's angels put on this Earth to remind us there is still love and kindness in this world …' Karen had been battling serious health issues for a while, her husband told me, but it was a broken femur from a fall in June that forced her to take time off from a long career with Scholastic Inc. in St. Charles. She was not feeling well on Thursday but declined Jim's offer to make a trip to the emergency room, opting instead to watch a movie from her vast Hallmark channel DVD collection, where Christmas-themed narratives are the superstars. Sitting near his wife using his tablet, Jim noticed Karen had fallen asleep, only to discover a short time later she was unresponsive. As one Facebook post read: 'Heaven gained the most beautiful angel on Thursday night.' No one knows that more than 27-year-old Jordan Davis, who moved from Florida to Chicago in 2019 for job reasons and was introduced to Karen, a West Aurora High School classmate of her mom Amy who had reconnected via Facebook. 'When I first met her, I thought, is this fake? No one can be this nice. But the more I visited, the more time I spent with them, I knew it was all genuine,' she said, who now considers Karen her 'Illinois mom.' 'Over the years she has been a constant light in my life, an amazing resource,' Davis told me, adding that, unlike 'so many people you come across, there was no agenda, no hidden motive.' Christmas this year, of course, will be different for those who loved Karen. As will Davis' upcoming wedding, where she will walk down the aisle with a locket specially made for her by the woman who 'took me in' and 'loved you like you are her own.' The locket arrived on Thursday, Jim told me, but not before Karen got a chance to see how special it was. Says Davis, who received it over the weekend, 'It is even more meaningful now.' Karen Bozarth – whose funeral Mass is at 10 a.m. Aug. 13 at Holy Angels Catholic Church in Aurora – leaves behind a legion of friends and family with similar feelings and stories to share that paint a Hallmark portrait of a woman who would not only give a stranger the shirt off her back but was a whole lot of fun to hang around. Karen also leaves behind that magnificent snow village collection, which never was dismantled after she and Jim announced last December that, due to health issues, it was the display's final year. I am so glad I got the chance to view it. Even more, I'm grateful for the opportunity to have met Karen Bozarth. Just as her holiday home had to be seen to be believed, so also did this beautiful Christmas lady whose bright light brought so much joy to the world.
