Alan Bergman, great American lyricist, dies at 99
NEW YORK, July 18 (Reuters) - Alan Bergman wrote a song with his future wife on the day they first met. Over the next 60 years they never stopped making music together. Bergman was one half of one of the greatest American songwriting duos. The other was his wife Marilyn, who died in 2022. Together, the couple wrote the lyrics for "The Way We Were" and "The Windmills of Your Mind," tunes for the film "Yentl," and the theme songs for 1970s television comedies "Maude," "Alice" and "Good Times." "It was a terrible song, but we loved the process," Bergman said in 2011 of that first collaboration. "And from that day on, we've been writing together." The songwriting team went on to win three Oscars, four Emmys and two Grammy awards, and to be inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1980. Their lyrics were set to the music of composers including Michel Legrand, Marvin Hamlisch, John Williams and Quincy Jones. Singers ranging from Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra to Johnny Mathis, Barbra Streisand and Sting recorded their songs. Bergman died on Thursday, aged 99, family spokesperson Ken Sunshine told Reuters. Bergman wrote his first song when he was 13 years old and continued to pen lyrics into his 90s, after his wife's death. The song "Wherever I May Go (for Marilyn)" was a tribute to her. 'It's such a deeply personal song,' composer Roger Kellaway told the San Francisco Classical Voice newsletter in 2022. "You could look at this, like, that's how committed Alan is to the relationship and how committed he is to songwriting." Alan Bergman was born in September 1925 in Brooklyn, New York in the same hospital as his wife a few years later. But the couple didn't meet until 1956 when they were introduced by the composer Lew Spence in Los Angeles. Bergman studied at the University of North Carolina and completed a Master's degree in music at the University of California, Los Angeles, where he met songwriter Johnny Mercer. Mercer, who wrote the lyrics of "Moon River" for the film "Breakfast at Tiffany's" in 1961, became his mentor. Despite his desire to write songs, Bergman first worked as a TV producer in Philadelphia. At Mercer's urging he moved to California in the 1950s. "I was writing both music and lyrics in those days, and he would listen to what I was writing and critique it and encourage me," Bergman told JazzTimes magazine last year. "I would not be here today without him. He was a great influence." Bergman liked to use a baseball analogy to explain the couple's writing process - pitching and catching ideas back and forth. He preferred to have the music before he began to write the lyrics. Composers would leave their compositions with the couple. They would then write words that fit the notes. "We believe that words are at the tips of those notes and it's our job to find them," he told radio station NPR in 2011. "That's the adventure." "Yellow Bird" was the duo's first money-making song, but their big break came with Frank Sinatra's 1960 album "Nice 'n' Easy." The crooner became a friend of the couple. He referred to them as "the kids." They had another career breakthrough when they worked with composer and producer Quincy Jones in 1967 on the song "In the Heat of the Night" for the film of the same name. They won their first Academy Award for best original song for writing "The Windmills of Your Mind" the following year, with Michel Legrand, for the film "The Thomas Crown Affair." They were awarded another Oscar in 1974 for "The Way We Were" with Marvin Hamlisch, as well as a Grammy for Song of the Year in 1975. In 1983, the couple were the first songwriters to have written three of the five Oscar-nominated songs. Two years later they took home their third Academy Award for "Yentl," starring Barbra Streisand. The singer became a friend and frequent interpreter of their music. Streisand recorded more than 50 of their songs. She released the album "What Matters Most" as a tribute to the Bergmans and their music. "When she does our songs, she finds things that always surprise us," Bergman told Reuters in 2011. "She deepens them. She gets all the nuances, everything, so it's thrilling." The couple's Emmys included awards for the TV movies "Queen of the Stardust Ballroom" (1975) and "Sybil" (1977), and the song "Ordinary Miracles" from the 1995 Streisand special "Barbra: The Concert." The couple married in 1958 and had one daughter. Bergman said he loved songwriting. Doing it for so long with someone he loved made it that much more beautiful.

Trump latest: US president speaking at White House makes another lawsuit threat after report about 'wonderful secret' letter to Epstein
Trump's history of doodling Doanld Trump has threatened to sue The Wall Street Journal for its story claiming the president send a lewd birthday card to Jeffrey Epstein in 2003. The card allegedly "contained several lines of typewritten text framed by the outline of a naked woman, which appears to be hand drawn with a heavy marker". Trump said the card is "fake", adding that it's "not the way I talk" and that "I don't draw pictures". But while it is hard to prove Trump did write the card, he is certainly wrong about drawing pictures, given he has a well documented history of doodling. Here's a passage he wrote in his 2008 book Never Give Up about drawing for charity: It takes me a few minutes to draw something, in my case, it's usually a building or a cityscape of skyscrapers, and then sign my name, but it raises thousands of dollars to help the hungry in New York through the Capuchin Food Pantries Ministry Trump has also had at least five of his own sketches from the late 1990s and early 2000s sold at auction, collecting thousands.

Kelly Ripa reveals what annoys her most about husband Mark Consuelos after making shock bedroom confession
Kelly Ripa has boldly laid bare what annoys her about husband Mark Consuelos – after outing him for being into morning sex. The Live with Kelly and Mark presenter, 54, got candid about her near–three–decade marriage during a recent appearance on the Not Skinny but Not Fat podcast. Besides being his wife, Kelly has also co–hosted their popular daytime show with her other half for the past two years and she pointed out what he does that irks her while the cameras are rolling. 'He doesn't listen to me frequently, and he will tune me out while we're live on the air,' she confessed. 'When you are being paid, highly paid by the way, to literally listen to me, then you have to listen,' she continued. 'I watch him drift away and I'm like, "Hey, hey, don't do that!"' Kelly's brutal honesty comes as she also admitted she is repulsed by his timing in the bedroom. 'I find it disgusting,' she said, explaining that Mark, also 54, prefers to have sex 'only in the morning.' But that's not all — she said he's also eager to kiss her first thing in the morning, which she finds anything but sexy. 'I have a retainer in. I gotta rip that out,' she said. 'And he's got his nasal strips on. It's like we are the most repulsive, disgusting [people].' She didn't stop there, adding with a laugh: 'I'm already pre–disgusted for tomorrow morning.' The longtime couple met on the set of All My Children back in 1995 and tied the knot the following year. They've since welcomed three children together: Michael, 28, Lola, 24, and Joaquin, 22. 'He'll never learn. He's a guy,' Kelly continued to joke on the podcast, before revealing she's had to lay down some ground rules with her husband of 29 years about when intimacy is — and isn't — on the table. 'I said to him, "Here's the thing,"' she recalled. 'There needs to be a yin and a yang here. It can't always be your way. 'Cause it feels like 90 percent of the time it's your way. 'And now that we work together every day, it's gonna have to sometimes be my way, and my way's at night only.' While Mark may prefer morning romance, Kelly made it clear that's not happening on a daily basis — especially now that they cohost Live with Kelly and Mark together. 'The greatest thing about this job, this thing has almost repulsed him from morning time during the work week,' she said. 'Which is like a miracle.' Then, with her signature bite, she added: 'May this show last until he suffers from erectile dysfunction.' Not done roasting her man, Kelly questioned why that hasn't already kicked in: 'Shouldn't that be happening now? I was promised!' she laughed.
