Those in italics have five or more pieces of usable visual, written, or audio propaganda already. If you have any visuals like photos or videos, or if you have something to say in words, submit it to this blog before round one begins on June 25th!

If you don't see a name you submitted here, it's because most or all of their career was as a child/they were too young for the cutoff, their career was almost entirely after 1979, or music was something they only dabbled in and are hardly known for. There are quite a few ladies on the list whose primary career wasn't "recording artist" or "live musician," but released several albums or were in musical theater, so they've been accepted.

#long post #miss billboard tourney #i wasn't originally going to list them all but i decided to do so because there are so many without propaganda

Dirty Harry: HIS DANCE WITH TAYLOR PAIR NOW IN LOVENEST (and)

NY LOVE ID; BOYBAND WOW MADISON SQ GARDEN

Sun [London, England], 5 Dec. 2012, p. 10. (x)

LOVEBIRDS Harry Styles and Taylor Swift sang a karaoke duet at the party after the band's gig. They teamed up to perform the Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton classic Islands In The Stream. A source said: "It was brilliant. There was a huge cheer when they got up." Taylor also sang with 1D and Ed Sheeran, 21, on Backstreet Boys' 1998 hit I Want It That Way. Ed and the boys linked up for Vanilla Ice's Ice Ice Baby.

and

The ONE DIRECTION star didn't need any prompting to join girlfriend TAYLOR SWIFT for a rendition of the famous Dirty Dancing routine after their Madison Square Garden gig in New York last week. He even had a go at the ambitious lift at the end. A source said: "It was brilliant. The song came on and they just started dancing together. "They didn't know it from start to finish, but towards the end they had a little chat, then she took a run and jumped in to his arms. Everyone was laughing and egging them on."

Byline: From PETE SAMSON, US Editor at Madison Square Garden, New York

ONE Direction cemented their status in pop's global elite as New York screamed for them throughout their sell-out show at iconic Madison Square Garden.

Two years ago Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, Zayn Malik, Niall Horan and Liam Payne were preparing to perform in the final of the UK's X Factor -- where they would finish third.

But on Monday night 20,000 fans converged from every corner of the globe to watch their biggest gig yet on the hallowed Big Apple stage.

Niall, 19, told the screaming crowd: "This is the best night of our lives. You guys have travelled from all around the world and we cannot believe what has happened here tonight. Thank you so much."

The arena has hosted some of the most memorable gigs in history, including shows by Led Zeppelin, The Stones and The Doors.

And while One Direction might not match these legendary acts for musical talent, their march to global superstardom could be the most mind-blowing of them all.

The lads have broken almost as many records as hearts on their way to becoming the world's biggest boyband. Their album Up All Night was the first debut release by a British group to go straight in at number one in the US -- an achievement The Beatles could not manage.

And their second album Take Me Home flew to the top of the charts in 35 countries last month. They have flogged more than 15 million records worldwide and sold out Monday's gig in less than a minute.

Zayn, 19, summed up the band's excitement as he told the crowd: "I'm overwhelmed. I'm from a small town in Bradford.

Things like this don't happen to people like me. I owe it all to you."

Louis, 20, added: "It's hard to comprehend how far we have come." Cheeky Harry, 18, said: "This place is huge. It's incredible." And Liam, 19, added: "I see a Swedish flag and Brazilian flag. It's just amazing."

The band entered to deafening screams. By the time they finished first song Up All Night, a pair of knickers had been thrown at Harry.

These were followed over the evening by several more pairs, numerous bras -- and an iPhone.

Highlights included latest single Little Things, for which they were joined by the track's writer, Ed Sheeran, 21. And when they finished their encore with What Makes You Beautiful, even the dads in the crowd were mouthing the words.

They don't have choreographed dance moves -- but that is part of the attraction for fans. They even break halfway through shows to answer questions. And they are remarkably at ease on stage for five lads put together by X Factor boss Simon Cowell, 53, after failing as solo singers. Fans -- who call themselves Directioners -- had queued outside for 37 hours for tickets. Stephanie Marusack, 18, and sister Megan, 21, got seats in the second row after camping.

Stephanie sobbed as she said: "I'm very emotional. We slept here in the rain." Megan said: "I love them because they are so normal. They don't put themselves on a pedestal. It makes it so much easier to connect." Melissa Grebe, Megan Farrell and Kayla Dee, all 18, and Kayla's sister Erin, 14, were wearing specially made shirts. Megan said: "We love everything about them. Their hair, their voices, their looks. Especially their hair."

As the gig ended Harry told the crowd: "I have never been so proud."

The band celebrated later at New York's Hudson Hotel with family, friends and music execs.

Harry introduced superstar lover Taylor Swift, 22, to his mum Anne Cox, 44.

Liam was joined by long-term partner Danielle Peazer, 24. Zayn by Little Mix girlfriend Perrie Edwards, 19, and Louis by girlfriend Eleanor Calder, 20. Single Niall was lapping up the attention of admirers.

And as if the gig hadn't quite sealed their status, New York also hosted a global fan convention for the boys yesterday. Some had scooped golden tickets for it in a contest -- and it was clear 1D were the hottest ticket in the Big Apple.

The Sun Says -- Page Six

LOVEBIRDS SING DUET

But the US legal drinking age of 21 meant 1D's rider was limited to sweet treats, including Snickers, KitKats and cupcakes.

Harry, 18, and pop-country star Taylor, 22 -- who is worth more than [pounds sterling]100million -- headed back to her hotel after 4am holding hands.

15M albums, singles and videos sold 35 countries where 1D scored No1 8,277,475 followers on Twitter Excitement

Dirty Harry

Sun [London, England], 12 Dec. 2012, p. 14. (x)

MOST blokes would need a couple of steak dinners to persuade them to watch a rom-com with the missus - let alone do a routine from one in front of pals.

But that certainly isn't the case for HARRY STYLES.

The ONE DIRECTION star didn't need any prompting to join girlfriend TAYLOR SWIFT for a rendition of the famous Dirty Dancing routine after their Madison Square Garden gig in New York last week.

He even had a go at the ambitious lift at the end.

A source said: "It was brilliant. The song came on and they just started dancing together.

"They didn't know it from start to finish, but towards the end they had a little chat, then she took a run and jumped in to his arms. Everyone was laughing and egging them on."

Harry's a brave lad going for the lift - especially when he hasn't got a six-pack like PATRICK SWAYZE had in the film, so the missus tells me.

When they weren't throwing each other around the floor, Harry and Taylor were up on the karaoke singing with the rest of the band and pal ED SHEERAN.

It just goes to show how much Harry likes the US star.

Inseparable The pair have been inseparable since they went public with their relationship last month.

After spending three nights together in New York, the couple took Taylor's private jet to the UK to make One Direction's performance at Capital FM's Jingle Bell Ball on Saturday.

Since then, they've been holed up in a romantic cottage on the outskirts of Manchester.

A source said: "They've been there since Sunday.

"Taylor's management and security are in a nearby hotel with instructions that she will call them when she's ready to leave."

Surely they've nailed that Dirty Dancing lift by now.

Betty Grable, June Haver, and John Payne star in Irving Cummings‘ THE DOLLY SISTERS (1945).

No matter how ridiculous the premise, I am a sucker for these 20th Century Fox musicals.

15/11/2024 - Project Research

Today I decided to go to the library and check out some books on fashion and costume design, as this is where my project is leaning towards. I am very interested in the many designs that can come from different fashion designers and how they vary so much in style.

I checked out the book; "Hollywood Sketchbook - A century of costume illustration" by Deborah Nadoolman Landis. This book focuses on outfits designed for and worn by Hollywood stars. Here are a few of the designs that I really liked.

This is Anthea Sylbert's design from 1937 for Pauline Annon. I love the simplicity of the design, yet it's still strikingly beautiful. It's also modest, and the use of all black creates this drama, as it's such a contrast to the bright red flowers.

These sketches are extremely dramatic, and equally as beautiful.

The light, flowing ruffles create such a beautiful texture in the first drawing. It is the costume design, by Travis Banton, for Ginger Rogers as 'Dolly Payne Madison' in the movie, Magnificent Doll.

The second is chic and elegant, with such a striking colour of bright red, and the sweeping sheer red train with sparkly fur red trim. This was designed by Donfeld for Bette Davis 1964 for the movie Dead Ringer.

The last outfit is more of a theatre outfit, made to grab the attention of the viewer, it was worn by Marlene Dietrich as Helen Faraday in the Paramount film Blonde Venus, 1932.

Poisoned Heart

Summary: The trial of State vs. Phoenix Wright on April 11, 2014 - he can't ever forget it, it was one of the worst says of his life.

“Mr. Wright!” Ms. Fey shouted in panic, her hazel eyes wide in horror. “Are you okay!?” “Huh…?” “I need to call you an ambulance!” “…why…?” Phoenix felt his legs wobble, the corners of his vision going dark. He coughed again, gasping for air. He had to rip off his mask as it felt suffocating… but it wasn’t the mask that was suffocating. It was the blood that was splattering into his hand. “Uh… M-M-Mia…?” Phoenix softly called out, his legs buckling. “I-I’m s-s-sor…rry…” “PHOENIX!”

AO3

“MIA FEY! MIA FEEEEY!”

The young, angelic-face of a woman with blood-red hair stood on the witness stand – her hands gripped on the handle of her parasol so tight that she could snap it in half. Her eyes seemed to be almost a spiritual white – full of anger and spite, almost a demonic presence.

“You. Think. You. Have. Won?” the woman practically growled. “WELL!? Do you, Mia Fey!?”

Standing on the Defense side of the courtroom was a young woman with chestnut brown hair and hazel eyes, a beauty mark on her chin, and wearing a skirt-suit with a tan scarf wrapped around her neck. Her purple magatama was sitting proudly in the middle of her chest above her breasts. She was considered a very beautiful young woman – but at that moment she looked terrified.

Literally minutes ago, Mia Fey was fighting for her client’s – Phoenix Wright – life as he was accused of murder of a young college student. The woman on the witness stand cursing Ms. Fey’s name was non-other than Phoenix’s girlfriend, Dahlia Hawthorne.

Who was planning on murdering him.

This… this isn’t really happening… is it?

Phoenix thought the worse of it was when he was accused of murdering Doug Swallow. He thought hiring a decent attorney from Grossberg’s Law Offices through the Law Program at Ivy University on a student discount would be fine. He thought everything would be an open and shut case.

That’s what Dollie told me anyway… she used to read some of my law texts…

Dahlia then laughed, a dark, and almost sinister laugh that Phoenix never heard before. “Heh... Heh... Heh... Heheh... That's. Just. Fine! For the time being...” Her voice just sounded so… cold. She then put on her “sweet” façade. “For the time being, victory is yours.” A lovely smile plastered on her face, a smile that Phoenix once would have said he really loved and enjoyed – but this smile… was different.

Stoney. Plastered. Almost… practiced.

It looks the same… but it’s not. I can’t really explain it…

“‘For the time being’”? Ms. Fey repeated, her hands on the desk, her giving Dahlia a hard glare.

Dahlia tilted her head to the side, her red hair gently falling on her shoulder. “Well... I have a very long memory, you know. You and I will meet again... I'm certain of it,” the woman stated.

Ms. Fey gave a perplexed look.

Soon Dahlia Hawthorne was escorted out of the courtroom by officers. She did not give Phoenix Wright another look. She did not say another word to him.

It was like he didn’t exist.

15 minutes earlier…

“OBJECTION!”

Phoenix had jumped from his Defendants chair and marched up towards the witnesses stand, ignoring the glares from his attorney, Mia Fey, and the Judge.

“On behalf of Dollie, I OBJECT!”

The prosecutor of the case, Mr. Winston Payne, began stuttering, “M-M-Mr. Wright! Control yourself!”

Anger had boiled in Phoenix. How could he sit there and watch his own attorney bully Dollie like this? Dollie was a petite woman with such delicate skin that she always carries a parasol, so she doesn’t get a sunburn. The girl studies literature so she can choose words over violence as “The Pen is Mightier Than the Sword”.

“I-I won’t let you bully her like this…!” Phoenix continued, tears threating to spill.

The Judge slammed is gavel. “MR. WRIGHT!” he shouted with authority. “I thought I had told you to stay in your seat!”

Ms. Fey slammed her hands on the desk. “Mr. Wright! W-why are you going through such lengths to protect her!?” the woman cried out.

“B-Because I’m madly in l-love with her!” the young man shouted, his face flushing in a combination of embarrassment and his low-grade fever.

He’s never said those words out in public. Both he and Dollie had always said and expressed their love for each other in private – either in his college dorm room or in her private apartment she had off campus. Saying it out loud, in front of everyone, made him want to crawl under the desk and cry.

You’ve always been so sensitive, Ryu. His mother had always told him, always calling him the nickname of his middle name.

Ms. Fey sighed in exasperation, “Mr. Wright…” she tapped her forehead in almost annoyance. “Have you ever thought about this? Why would a woman like Ms. Hawthorne want to date you anyway?”

I mean… ouch.

Phoenix would consider himself… average looking at best. He didn’t really date in high school – it didn’t help that he hung out with Larry Butz a lot and of course “When something Smells, it’s usually the Butz!” Once he started college there were a couple of dates, meeting a couple of guys at a local bar and grill, a girl or two at a movie, and going to a few parties at a frat house and chatting.

But Dahlia was the first one to willing… throw herself at him? He was the one who would approach others and it was usually the most awkward thing in the world until he had a drink or two in. The young woman literally gave him the heart-shaped necklace, made of glass, and gave him such a smile that he couldn’t refuse.

Then Ms. Fey mentioned the necklace… it was coming back to the necklace again…

That damned necklace.

“Y-you’re l-lying…” Phoenix kept mumbling to himself as Ms. Fey kept pushing about the necklace and how Dollie just wanted it back.

“You never gave it back to her,” Ms. Fey continued. “And you kept refusing. On top of it all, you kept showing it to everyone you met. That’s why she-”

“… I don’t… I don’t believe you!” Phoenix finally cried out, tears spilling over his eyes. “NOO! That’s a l…l-lie!” He rushed over by Ms. Fey and nearly tackling her, tears nearly blinding him as he wailed.

“EEK!” his attorney shouted in panic.

What she didn’t realize was that Phoenix slipped his hand into her pocket and grabbed the necklace back.

“The Defendant!” a bailiff shouted. “He’s getting away!”

Phoenix ignored the shouts as he ran out of the courtroom. As he had ran by Dollie, there was almost a… sinister smile on her face. Was he imagining it?

He ran down the hall and turned a corner, managing to slip into the restroom quickly before the bailiff could see. Quickly, he locked the door behind him and entered a stall. He opened his hand to see blue and gold pendant, heart-shaped, a glass crystal in its center.

Eight months… he thought bitterly to himself. I’ve had this for eight months. Ms. Fey says there is poison in this? Did Dollie really… poison that other attorney…?

Looking in the glass bottle, there was a quarter of fluid in there. Without thinking, Phoenix pulled down his mask, ignoring the cough building up in his throat, and began crushing the glass in his mouth.

He felt the iron tang along with something else tinging his tongue. But he ignored it. All that mattered was that he was going to prove that Dollie was not hiding poison or had been trying to kill him. Every swallow of the broken glass was tearing his already scratchy, sore throat.

He felt blood trickle down the corners of his mouth, and with a quick motion of a ripping a piece of toilet paper he promptly wiped it away. He ignored the bright scarlet. He ignored the iron taste. He ignored what almost smelled like flowers wafting into his nose mixed with iron – an almost bitter smell.

After a few minutes of breaking apart the rest of the necklace and disposing it (him eating it), he gave a few sneezes and coughs, ignoring the splatter of blood that he sprayed on the wall of the small cubicle he was in, and exited the stall. He made his way to the mirror and saw his reflection.

It was like seeing a hollow version of himself. He still had his usual spikiness of his hair, but his normally dark blue eyes were almost tinged gray – lifeless. Dark circles were under his eyes, his skin pale and clammy.

What does a poisoned person look like? He had been fighting a cold for the past three days – of course he looked sick. Is he going to look worse? Is he going to drop dead?

After a solid five minutes of nothing – Phoenix gave a smirk.

He finally left the bathroom with his hands up and let the bailiffs take him back to the courtroom.

Phoenix Wright was given a “Not Guilty” verdict for the murder of Doug Swallow.

He should be happy. He was not going to prison. He could still become a lawyer and help his oldest friend…

But… he wasn’t… Phoenix couldn’t.

So… it was all a lie…?

“Oh! Mr. Wright!” a familiar voice called out to him, pulling him out of his thoughts. “Congratulations!” Ms. Fey held out her hand for a handshake.

For a moment, Phoenix stared blankly at it, but he then grasped it and shook it gratefully. “Th-thank you, Ms. Fey…” he said tearfully. “I-I’m sorry for the trouble I’ve caused…”

Ms. Fey blinked at him in surprise. “Mr. Wright… I know you must still be in shock from everything…” she began to say.

“Dollie…” he barely whispered. “I don’t think that was actually her on the stand…”

“I…I’m not sure what you mean by that, Mr. Wright…” she replied in confusion.

Phoenix shook his head softly. Why did his head hurt suddenly? Maybe he was getting a headache from all this excitement…

“The Dollie I knew… would never say those kinds of things…” Phoenix explained, him still feeling bewildered. “She was always so sweet… and… and ca-car-” He gave a rough cough. His throat felt like knives were tearing at it. His stomach was burning. He needed to pick up a not poisoned cold-killing medicine on his way back to the dorm.

“Mr. Wright!” Ms. Fey shouted in panic, her hazel eyes wide in horror. “Are you okay!?”

“Huh…?”

“I need to call you an ambulance!”

“…why…?”

Phoenix felt his legs wobble, the corners of his vision going dark. He coughed again, gasping for air. He had to rip off his mask as it felt suffocating… but it wasn’t the mask that was suffocating.

It was the blood that was splattering into his hand.

“Uh… M-M-Mia…?” Phoenix softly called out, his legs buckling. “I-I’m s-s-sor…rry…”

“PHOENIX!”

The wailing of sirens was the last thing he heard as he crashed into Mia Fey’s arms, coughing more blood onto the white of her jacket, staining it scarlet.

He opened his eyes with a loud gasp, the sounds of beeping around him.

An oxygen mask covered his face, feeling a bunch of wires and tubing covering exposed skin, and something was uncomfortably shoved up his nose. A scratchy blanket covered him, thin and cold, it does nothing for him to contain body heat.

Phoenix darted his eyes around him, noting that the room was a stark white. Sterile. Unwelcoming.

It wasn’t his first time in a hospital bed for something dumb.

It was his first time however in a hospital bed for something idiotic.

“So, you’re awake now, Mr. Wright?” a soft voice asked.

Phoenix managed to crane his neck to his left to see his attorney in a chair, wearing casual clothing with a dark purple knitted sweater and a pair of black slacks, and her purple magatama that was almost glowing front and center on her chest. In her hands was a cup of coffee, most likely from a vending machine and from questionable origin.

“Ms.… Fey…?” Phoenix choked out, his voice dry and hoarse. He reached up to his face and pulled off his oxygen mask. He gave a cough to try to clear it, but when he did, he felt as though his chest was on fire.

“You were in surgery for about thirteen hours, Phoenix…” she worriedly said. “They actually said that was short.”

“… I was…?”

“You are lucky son of a bitch, you know that!?” Ms. Fey then screamed, her standing up from her chair. “You ate a knowingly poisoned necklace!”

“… I thought… it wasn’t…” Phoenix choked, him feeling tears sting his eyes.

“You were willing to bet your life on that!?” she furiously screamed, tears in her eyes. “My first trial ended because the defendant committed suicide from doing what your DUMB ASS DID!” She threw her coffee to the ground, it splattering to the floor. “Well… not exactly what you did… he just drank the full dose of poison…” Her hands were balled up into fists at her sides. “Someone… someone I care about is in a room a few doors down was unknowingly poisoned by that bitch! He’s been in a coma for the past eight months! And yet… you were willing to bet your life that she wouldn’t kill you…!”

Phoenix darted his eyes away from hers. He didn’t realize that’s what happened. “I…” was all he could manage.

Ms. Fey sighed, her voice shaking. “They said you were lucky… the poison wasn’t as potent due to half-life…” she explained, her voice softer, seemingly realizing she let out too much of her emotions. “The glass… luckily didn’t cut your esophagus… it did cut your stomach lining though and got into your small intestine.”

“…”

“They managed to get all the glass out and stitch you up on the inside to make sure there is no internal bleeding,” she continued. She glanced at the I.V. bag and the feeding tube that was going up Phoenix’s nose. “The poison may affect your absorption of nutrients as well…” she added. “It sounds like you may not like eating much anymore…” She gave a morbid chuckle dripping with sarcasm, “Every girl’s diet wish.”

“Can… I…” Phoenix tried to speak, but his throat was so dry.

“Do you want water…?”

He nodded.

Ms. Fey handed him a cup of ice water that was on a tray next to her.

Phoenix managed to prop himself up in the bed and gulp the water down in one swig. He cleared his throat.

“Much better…” he softly spoke. His voice was still hoarse, but at least it wasn’t drier than the Sahara Desert. He then took a deep breath. “I’m… I’m sorry I was an idiot,” he expressed full heartedly. “I… I should have listened to you… Dahlia was right… what use am I to anyone…? Maybe I should’ve just-”

Phoenix then felt a warm hand on his. “Don’t!” Ms. Fey’s stern voice interrupted. “Don’t you dare say you rather be dead!” Her hard glare was full of determination, confidence, and what Phoenix could describe as… hope. “You are worth it to someone! I wouldn’t have fought so hard for you in court if I didn’t think you were worth it, Phoenix!”

The young man blinked in confusion. Then he gave a bitter chuckle, “I thought you insisted on being my attorney because she was involved…?”

Ms. Fey looked startled. “I mean…” she choked out. “It… did start out like that…” she admitted. “But as the trial went on… I realized that you reminded me a lot… of myself. Scared and unsure of yourself. Dahlia mentioned in a testimony that you are also studying law…? Why as an art student are you studying law?”

Phoenix darted his eyes away. “I minor in law…” he lowly said. “I wanted to be a Defense Attorney when I was kid… I put it on the back burner for a bit and focused on art instead…” He then noticed a newspaper on the table next to where Ms. Fey was sitting, it showing someone very familiar on the front page… “Hey… can I see that paper for a second…?”

Ms. Fey looked confused as she grabbed it. “Um… sure?” she muttered as she handed it to the young college student.

Phoenix read the front page, the title reading: “DEMON PROSECUTOR WINS AGAIN”.

“What… have you become, Miles…?” Phoenix barely whispered.

“I beg your pardon, Phoenix?” Ms. Fey asked.

“Ms. Fey…” Phoenix began, him folding the newspaper up, the picture showing clear as day his old childhood friend: Miles Edgeworth. “A lawyer is someone who can help people when they’re in trouble… right?”

She gave a soft look, almost like an older sister. “I’m… still new to this lawyering thing myself, but I think that’s what a lawyer does,” she told him.

Phoenix gave her a large smile. “Then that’s what I’ll do!” he said confidently. “I’ll study my ass off! No more half-assing my lawyer classes! I’m going to become a Defense Attorney! Maybe we can meet each other again!”

“I’ll do you one better…” she said as she extended her hand to him. “I’ll help you get there… you can call me ‘Mia’ for now on.” She then gave him a wink. “Or ‘Chief’. I like the sound of that.”

“‘Chief’?” he echoed.

“Yeah… I’m probably going to be opening my own firm… ‘Fey & Co.’,” she admitted slyly as she tapped her chin. “How about I take you under my wing? You can be the ‘Co’ of ‘Fey & Co’.” She was beaming with every word.

Phoenix felt his face go red. “Wait… what…!?” he stammered. “Even though… even though…!?”

“You may be a dumbass in social situations,” Mia told him with a smirk. She then pulled out his transcripts from his college courses. “But… you’re actually good with your testing scores – you just don’t like doing your actual work.”

Phoenix crossed his arms stubbornly. “Well… the tests should be what counts…” he muttered.

“You’re a straight A student in every test you take – even going past the grading scale with extra credit questions because you think outside the box.”

“…”

“So, let’s get your grades up and get you to pass your Bar Exam.”

“Are… you sure you want to put all your faith in me, Ms. – I mean, Chief?”

Mia then gave him a large smile. “Phoenix Wright – you may have gotten a poisoned heart from love, but you’re an amazing person, this one incident isn’t going to break you. We Fey’s have this uncanny feeling about this sort of thing. I’m going to make sure you become a damn good attorney – an Ace Attorney if you will.” She winked at him again.

A smile crossed his face again. “Th-thank you, Mia…” he whispered, his voice wavering.

September 10, 2016 - 9:00am

Los Angeles Hospital Cremation Services

It was a little more than two years since that day… since that trial…

Phoenix Wright stood in the hallway in the basement of the hospital with Maya Fey, the younger sister of his mentor - his old attorney, his friend – waiting for hospital staff to seal the doors of the cremation room.

She’s right there… on the other side… her body…

But it was just the night before he heard her voice in the office. She told him that he was finally leaving the nest… that she would always watch over him. Mia had saved him again at the trial at the last moment – Maya being a Spirit Medium-in-training was able to channel the deceased Mia finally gave Phoenix the last piece of the puzzle he needed for Maya – and his – acquittal.

Miles Edgeworth – the man that was the reason why he even became an attorney in the first place – was the prosecutor in the case. He was even shocked at the turn in of events, and for the first time since 2013, he had lost a trail. The Demon Prosecutor had lost his perfect trial record to a rookie first year Defense Attorney who was only defending his second trial.

Lost in thought, Phoenix didn’t hear the operator as a switch was pulled. Orange engulfed his view through the window. A small gasp escaped Maya as she then began to mumble prayers to herself.

Phoenix was not a religious man – he never was. He remembered a few phrases from his Soba Naruhodo that were prayers for the deceased, something they did for their ancestors from time to time, so that was what he prayed to Mia.

“Don’t worry, Phoenix – we’re not done with each other yet!”

M-Mia?!

“Don’t let my death poison your heart, Phoenix – remember, you’re an amazing person! Please take care of each other, okay…?”

I… we will, Chief…

Thank you… Mia.

Phoenix and Maya had split Mia’s ashes in half.

Maya had kept her half of the ashes in a purple urn that was the same color as the late Fey’s magatama, her name engraved in the stone. The young Spirit Medium also kept a special hollow magatama and kept a bit of ash in there to carry on her person – she stated it was easier to channel Mia’s spirit and she liked the fact that her sister was always with her.

Phoenix had a purple urn as well, but it was more subtle looking. In a way it resembled a house plant pot… He had looked into it, a “Living Urn” it was called. At that moment, Phoenix had Mia’s ashes mixed in soil in a biodegradable urn to help lower pH levels and for the soil and ashes to become acclimated with one another. Once all that was said in done – he was going to transfer Charlie the plant into the large purple “Urn” pot so that Mia would help Charlie continue to grow and live in the office.

Mia was the life of the office. She was the life of Maya. She was the life of Charlie.

And she was the life of Phoenix - the one who helped heal his poisoned heart.

STOP BEING MAD AT BEYONCE FOR NOT THROWING HER BLACK ANCESTORS IN THE TRASH:

Black people stop throwing your black culture away: & see the value in your black culture. Know your black history: & BLACKS BEING COMPLETELY ERASED OUT OF THE BLACK COUNTRY MUSIC YOUR ANCESTORS INVENTED: BY WHITES: WHO WHITE WASHED YOUR BLACK COUNTRY MUSIC SO BAD: THEY ACTUALLY BELIEVE WHITES INVENTED COUNTRY MUSIC & CULTURE & BLACKS NEVER HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT & CAN NOT BE COUNTRY BECAUSE WE HAVE BLACK SKIN: THAT WILL NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN: IF BLACKS STOP THROWING OUR BLACKNESS IN THE TRASH FOR OTHER RACES TO CULTURALLY APPPROPIATE & SEE THE VALUE IN YOUR ANCESTORS THAT YOU DON'T SEE. BLACK PEOPLE CREATED MORE THAN HIP HOP RAP MUSIC. WAKE UP!

I had a white lady try & tell me Spain invented the guitar. What she meant to say was BLACK MOORS FROM NORTH AFRICA BROUGHT THE GUITAR TO SPAIN & PORTUGAL IN THE 1500 CENTURY: BUT I GUITAR LIKE INSTRUMENT EXISTED IN AFRICA SINCE THE EMPIRE OF CUSH FROM 600 BC TO 350 AD TO PRESENT DAY. ANOTHER EFFORT AT CULTURAL APPROPIATION & FORGETING THE BLACK ROOTS OF THE GUITAR. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. BLACK PEOPLE DO YOUR RESEARCH DON'T LET NO ONE STEAL CULTURE. IGNORANT BLACKS HAVE EVEN SAID Beyoncé IS TRYING TO MAKE WHITE MUSIC: BECAUSE SOME IGNORANT BLACK PEOPLE DON'T KNOW BLACK PEOPLE INVENTED COUNTRY MUSIC & BROUGHT COUNTRY MUSIC TO THE USA AS SLAVES ALONG WITH THE BANJO, GUITAR, & DRUMS. WE BLACKS INVENT JAZZ THROW IT AWAY LET WHITE FOLKS HAVE IT. BLACKS INVENT BLUES THROW IT AWAY & LET WHITE FOLKS HAVE IT. BLACK FOLKS INVENT COUNTRY MUSIC THROW IT AWAY & LET WHITE FOLKS HAVE IT. BLACK FOLKS LIKE JIMI HENDRIX, CHUCK BERRY, FATS DOMINO, TINA TURNER HELPED INVENT ROCK & ROLL & WE THROW IT AWAY & LET WHITE FOLKS HAVE IT. ALOT OF IGNORANT BLACKS TRULY BELIEVE RAP & HIP HOP IS THE ONLY GENRE OF MUSIC BLACKS INVENTED OR CONTRIBUTED TO. MINISTER FARAKAHN SAID IT BEST: WHEN IGNORANT BLACK PEOPLE GOT MAD AT RACHEL DOLEZAL FOR CULTURALLY APPROPIATING BLACK CULTURE "DON'T GET MAD AT RACHEL DOLEZAL FOR FINDING VALUE IN BLACK CULTURE: WHILE YALL ARE BUSY BLEACHING YOUR SKIN & THROWING YOUR BLACK CULTURE & BLACKNESS AWAY!"

My mom's side of the family came from Mississippi & moved to Saint Louis, Missouri. My dad side of the family also came from Mississippi & moved to Saint Louis, Missouri: so I grew up with Blackfoot Indian on both sides of my family & black country on both sides of my family. I grew up on country music Loretta Lynn, Dolly Parton, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings, Patsy Cline, Willie Nelson: but I also grew up with Charley Pride, Ray Charles, Chuck Berry, LaMelle Prince, Linda Martell, The Pointer Sisters, Tina Turner, Ruby Falls, Deford Bailey, Rufus Teetot Payne, Lesley Riddle. Later on I liked other Black country artist like Rissi Palmer, Mickey Guyton, Darius Rucker, Kane Brown, & yes even Beyoncé. Black people helped invent country music & cowboy culture. The black slaves that herded cattle would wear cowboy hats, cowboy boots, chaps, & jeans: & were called cowboys by the slavemasters & the term cowboy was originally meant as an insult to the black men who were slaves & herded cattle. It didn't become a compliment until white people culturally appropiated country music & cowboy culture & attire from Black people. I am tired of white people stealing country culture & country music from Black people & then thinking the black people they stole country music & country culture from are not country: because our skin is not white. We do not mind sharing country culture, country music, & cowboy attire & cowboy culture with anyone: but don't turn around & tell the very black people you stole everything from we are not country: because we do not have white skin. THAT WILL NO LONGER BE ACCEPTED OR TOLERATED: & BEYONCE IS LEADING THE MOVEMENT. RACIST BULLIES HATE HER FOR THAT: BUT I AND 313,000,000 people of all races, sexes, & orientations love her dearly for thar. THE HATE WILL NOT BE TOLERATED HATERS WILL BE BLOCKED, DELETED, & IGNORED. RACIST, BULLY, HATERS CAN KICK ROCKS.

DOLLY Parton, Wynonna Judd, Patsy Cline, Trisha Yearwood, Shania Twain, LORETTA LYNN, LAINEY WILSON, Megan Moroney, Miranda Lambert, Tanya Tucker, Faith Hill, Martina McBride, Carrie Underwood: are all country artist that I love: but none of them can sing almost 4 octaves like Queen Bey Beyonce: I am not a professional singer for a living: but like Beyonce I can also sing almost 4 octaves: I can sing bass, baritone, tenor, contratenor, contralto, alto, & 8 Soprano notes: it took me over 20 years to reach 8 soprano notes: because I have a very low singing voice. For many years I could only sing 5 soprano notes: but after taking voice lessons most of my life: I made it to 7 soprano notes. I staye at 7 soprano notes: until I minored in opera: & two years of training finally got me the 8th soprano note: that eluded me my whole life. I love my lower voice registry: but I do like soprano voices too: so I worked really hard to sing those soprano notes for kareoke purposes over the years. This was the reason I took opera in college to learn how to sing higher notes: it was very, hard work: so I can respect Beyonce's God Given talent: because she naturally can sing almost 4 octaves: she did not have to work at it for over 30 years like I did & minor in opera in college. Beyonce's half time show was the f*cking best I ever seen. She honors her black ancestors: who helped invent country music. There has been racism against black women in country music for years. If you got anything negative to say about BEYONCE OR ANY BLACK WOMAN IN COUNTRY MUSIC PLEASE BLOCK ME: BECAUSE I WILL DEFINITELY BLOCK YOU & DELETE YOUR COMMENTS FROM MY PAGE. I AM NOT STANDING FOR NO MORE RACISM & BULLYING OF BLACK FEMALE COUNTRY ARTIST. RACISTS BULLIES AGAINST BLACK WOMEN IN COUNTRY MUSIC WILL NOT BE GIVEN A VOICE OR PLATFORM ON MY PAGE EVER AGAIN! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. I DON'T LIKE RACIST BULLIES AT ALL.

African guitar like instruments existed in the empire of Cush (c.600 BC - c.350 AD) & had guitar like strings, also the banjo & the drums are also African Instruments too. Moors brought guitar like intruments to Portugal & Spain around the 15 century.

Moors were people of color who lived in North Africa. The black Moors of North Africa brought the guitar to Spain & Portugal during their occupation of Al-Andalus from 711-1492:

The Black Moors brought the al'ud, an 11-stringed, pear-shaped, fretless instrument that evolved into the Spanish guitar. The Black Moors al'ud is thought to be the direct ancestor of the modern guitar.

The Moorish guitar is also known as the Guitarra Morisca, which means "Moorish guitar". It had multiple soundholes, an oval body, a wide neck, & crescent-shaped headstock.

By the 14th century, the Guitarra Morisca was called a guitar. The guitar, along with other instruments, helped shape the development of Spanish classical music & flamenco & helped to form the foundation of Modern Spanish Music Styles.

The most significant Moorish musician was known as Ziryab (the Blackbird) who arrived in Spain in 822. The Moors introduced earliest versions of several instruments, including the Lute or el oud, the guitar or kithara & the Lyre. Current racist narrative is that Spain invented the guitar in the 15 century. The reality is black Moors from Northern Africa brought the guitar to Spain around that time. Guitar like instruments existed in Africa since 600 bc to 350 AD.
