Demi Lovato and Nick Jonas
Demi Lovato and Nick Jonas intend to upend that whole sex, drugs ‘n’ rock ‘n’ roll mythos that comes with touring around the performing concerts.
Apparently the pair intend to spend their down time while on tour this summer shrimping, jabbing and jitzing their way through mixed martial arts sessions.
Sarah wrote about the pair’s plans in a post for Asian World Of Martial Arts.

Brain Candy
Brain Candy, the criminally underappreciated dark comedy by the Kids In The Hall, turned 20 recently.
To celebrate, Sarah tracked down KITH’s Scott Thompson to reflect on Brain Candy‘s impact two decades later.
And to reflect on how the Cancer Boy character impacted their career.

A brain designed by Parvez Taj
If you spend any time wandering around downtown Toronto this summer there’s a fair chance you’ll encounter one of the many artfully rendered brain sculptures that are part of The Brain Project.
The Brain Project’s a fundraiser/public art initiative to raise money and awareness about brain illnesses such as Alzheimer’s and dementia. The likes of Kim Kardashian, Matthew Bellamy from the British rock band Muse and the Toronto Raptors basketball organization have all designed brains for the cause.
I interviewed The Brain Project’s co-chair Erica Godfrey to find out more about these brilliant brains.
