John Wayne Looks Like the Gruffest Santa Claus You’ll Find in Estate’s New Photo – My Blog

Everyone knows that Santa Claus has a white beard, but John Wayne might have the title for gruffest-looking Santa in history.

On Friday, the John Wayne Estate released a photo from its archives.
Outsiders, we’d be hard-pressed not to call him “Santa Duke” as that might offend both Claus and Wayne. So, here’s a pic from back in the day as Wayne spreads Christmas cheer.
As you can see, this pic is on the official Instagram account for all things John Wayne.

We looked for some type of time reference that would allow either a date or place to be affixed with this sweet Christmastime photo. No luck, though.
Wayne never played Santa Claus in a movie. “The Duke” might have made some type of TV appearance as the jolly old St. Nick.
Still, seeing John Wayne dressed up like Santa Claus is a sight to behold. Outsiders, we don’t think he’d be saying “alright, pilgrim” with his red-and-white suit.
So many people still love John Wayne and his movies. Maybe you can find one during this holiday season to enjoy.

John Wayne Receives Quite A Compliment From Singer, Costar Glen Campbell
Fans of John Wayne remember that singer Glen Campbell found himself in a movie titled True Grit. But the Wichita Lineman musician had absolutely no training as an actor.
That was OK by Wayne. Let’s take a look at the story behind Campbell working with “The Duke.”
Glen Campbell considered Wayne as a nice person.
The one-time Los Angeles session musician talked about Wayne at Remembering John Wayne and True Grit for the Jules Verne Festival in 2011.
Campbell, in an interview, remembered how he and Wayne met on his TV show, The Glen Campbell Goodtime Hour. The singer recalled meeting him there. Wayne asked if a man named Campbell was there. His daughter wanted to meet him. Campbell said he was shocked by his request but obliged.
“You must be pretty good or my daughter wouldn’t have wanted to meet you,” Campbell recalled Wayne saying to him. Then Wayne asked Campbell if he wanted to a movie together. This led to True Grit with Wayne, Campbell, and Kim Darby.
Campbell told Wayne that he’d never acted before. Wayne said, “That’s alright, I’ll drag you through it.”
“He was one of the nicest men that I’ve ever met in my life,” Campbell said of Wayne. Both men reportedly stayed in touch over the years until Wayne’s death in 1979.
True Grit would bring John Wayne his only Oscar for playing U.S. Marshal Rooster Cogburn. He reprised that role in the 1975 film Rooster Cogburn.

Sydney Sweeney hits back at horrific body shaming comments on viral pictures with incredible response

Sydney Sweeney has posted an Instagram video which included body shaming comments

Sydney Sweeney has hit back at horrific body shaming comments she’s received online with an incredible response.

For famous faces, social media can be an extremely toxic place, and it’s why we’ve seen some celebrities reduce their online presence as a result.

Euphoria star Sydney Sweeney has become the subject of body shaming comments in recent times, and she responded to these on Instagram in the best possible way.

The actor posted a shot clip that began with screenshots of a bunch of body shaming comments she’s received online, including some calling her ‘quite frumpy’, ‘very chunky’ and ‘tubby’.

Sydney Sweeney and Glen Powell discuss chemistry
After many screenshots of horrible comments were shown on screen, the video cut to Sweeney in her training gear at the gym.

The video cut to a sign that said ‘hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard’ as Sweeney worked hard with a trainer, struck a punching bag and even flipped a large tire in what looked like an extremely intense workout.

Many have flocked to the comments section of the Instagram video to praise Sweeney for her response to the trolls.

“I will never understand the hate in people‘s hearts when it comes to leaving comments like this,” one person commented.

A second added: “Ngl why do people feel entitled to talk about someone’s body specially someone you don’t personally know,” while a third remarked: “No one has the right or reason to make comments on anyones body, ever.”

Meanwhile, Lili Reinhart penned: “It’s always wild to see people publicly out themselves as pieces of shit with comments like that. You look incredible and your dedication to your project is very inspiring.”

The video actually concluded with the name ‘Christy Martin’ being shown on the screen, which is a nod to Sweeney’s upcoming biopic where she plays a famed female boxer.

Boxing fans will likely know Martin is a is a former professional boxer who earned herself the WBC female super welterweight title in 2009.

Sweeney has spoken previously about her process of getting into her movie character, telling The Los Angeles Times in March that she’s a ‘very hands-on collaborator’.

“I like being able to give ideas, be a part of it, help come up with solutions. It just changes the whole process,” she said.

Sweeney continued: “It’s so hard for me now to be on a set and not be able to help in any type of way and be able to take action. And being able to actually have a voice and have a valued opinion—it means so much.”

‘Australia’s most sexually active woman’ reveals outrageous bedroom goal for 2025

A woman who has been dubbed the “most sexually active woman” in Australia has set her sights on a big goal for 2025.

You’ve probably heard of Bonnie Blue and Lily Phillips attempting to break outrageous records in the bedroom – and Annie Knight has now thrown her hat into the ring too.

“When I watched that clip of Lily crying and everyone was saying, ‘Oh my god, this poor girl,’ I just thought, well, she’s been getting railed all day by 100 different guys… imagine putting your body through that,” Knight told Metro.

“Yes, it’s emotionally taxing, but isn’t that like any job?” she added. “Everyone has moments where they’re like, ‘I don’t know if I can do this anymore.’ You do get really stressed. She’d be exhausted; her body would be exhausted. When you’re tired, your emotions are high.”

Knight also noted that some of the men involved in Phillips’ session were reportedly rude to her, emphasizing that dealing with negativity can be challenging in any profession.
