Kaitlin Young
In the history of female MMA fighters Kaitlin Young’s name will forever be linked to those of the sport’s first generation pioneers.
Unfortunately, her fight record hasn’t quite matched her place in history.
Young attempted a comeback fight at last weekend’s Invicta card.
Sarah interviewed her before the event for Fightland. Read the story by clicking here.

Karl Lagerfeld boxing fashion
Fashion designer Karl Lagerfeld has set his sights on the boxing ring with a series of fight-inspired Vuitton items including a heavy bag and boxing gloves.

So Sarah wrote about it for Fightland.

Mick Fleetwood of Fleetwood Mac
Fleetwood Mac have recently welcomed Christine McVie back to their touring lineup. Titular head Mick Fleetwood has been making news for something different, however — his photographs.
The musician has apparently been taking photos for years and has been showing them off at galleries while on the Mac’s current tour.
Sarah spoke to him about it for Huffington Post Music Canada.

Tanya Tagaq
When Tanya Tagaq won the Polaris Music Prize in September it put the Inuk throat singer in a very high profile spotlight.
And Tagaq has been using that spotlight to good effect: shedding light on the unacceptable response to the level of murdered or missing aboriginal women in Canada, taking on PETA for their stance on the seal hunt, and throwing down about Prime Minister Stephen Harper.
Sarah talked to Tagaq about these things and a whole lot more for an in-depth interview at Huffington Post Music Canada.
