Alicia is looking for incredible artists from the Tumblr community to help capture her tour!
“The unbelievable art, photos and GIFs that the Tumblr community create and share every day, truly inspires me. Tumblr is one of my absolute favorites! Love how each person has their own world! So, I am super excited to announce that I will be partnering with Tumblr for my “Set The World On Fire” tour. With each stop along the tour, I will invite one incredible artist from the Tumblr community to document the show. That artist will bring the show and their talents to life in the way only a Tumblr user knows how. To enter, submit an original post here and check which tour stop you’d like to document. Show me how you shine! Can’t wait to meet you all on this tour. Much love, Alicia”Each Tumblr user selected will receive a photo pass, two tickets to the show, and two meet and greet passes.
Good luck!

To grace the poster for its 66th edition, the Festival de Cannes has chosen a couple who embody the spirit of cinema like no other: Joanne Woodward and Paul Newman, photographed during the shooting of the aptly named A New Kind of Love, by Melville Shavelson (1963).
For the Festival it is a chance both to pay tribute to the memory of Paul Newman, who passed away in 2008, and to mark its undying admiration for Joanne Woodward, his wife and most favoured co-star.
They were honoured at the Festival de Cannes in 1958 – the year of their marriage – with the selection In Competition of Martin Ritt’s The Long Hot Summer, the first film in which they appeared together. The links between their story and that of the Festival continued with a series of films directed by Newman, who cast Woodward in unforgettable roles in The Effect of the Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds (Competition – 1973) and The Glass Menagerie (Competition – 1987).
The poster evokes a luminous and tender image of the modern couple, intertwined in perfect balance at the heart of the dizzying whirlwind that is love. The vision of these two lovers caught in a vertiginous embrace, oblivious of the world around them, invites us to experience cinema with all the passion of an everlasting desire. — Cannes 2013
