Celebrities, artists design new versions of plastic ponies for charity
PROVIDENCE, R.I. - The stars of ABC's "Boston Legal" are taking a break from the lives of their oversexed, ego-driven characters to channel sunshine and rainbows.
William Shatner, James Spader and Candice Bergen are among the celebrities and artists who have agreed to design some new versions of My Little Pony, the plastic toy that has captivated girls since the 1980s.
Pawtucket-based Hasbro Inc. will auction the special ponies for the Give Kids The World charity as part of a celebration of the toy's 25th anniversary.
The pastel-coloured ponies - with names like Rainbow Dash and Daybreak - usually sport decorations on their hindquarters, often of hearts, balloons or stars. The celebrities and artists were given blank, 46-centimetre versions of the usually 10-centimetre-tall ponies to decorate, Hasbro spokesman Dan Benkwitt said.
Other designers include Grammy-winning singer LeAnn Rimes, 1980s teen idol Deborah Gibson and actor Danny Aiello, known for his roles in "Moonstruck" and "Do the Right Thing."
Artists designing ponies include illustrator Catalina Estrada from Spain, New York graffiti artist-turned-designer Claw Money and Japanese manga artist Junko Mizuno.
A pony designed by Estrada was expected to be unveiled at a collectors' fair this weekend in Providence, Benkwitt said. The others will be unveiled during a gallery event in Manhattan in September, when they also will be auctioned.
Benkwitt said Bergen and Aiello agreed to design ponies because of their support of the charity that provides vacations at central Florida theme parks for children with life-threatening illnesses and their families. Bergen then got the cast members of "Boston Legal" involved.

Illustrator Tasha Tudor dead at 92
MARLBORO, Vt. —

Children's book illustrator Tasha Tudor, whose whimsical drawings of country outings, gardens and family life in rural New England echoed her own picturesque lifestyle, has died. She was 92.
Tudor, who illustrated such classics as "Little Women" and "The Secret Garden," died Wednesday at her home, surrounded by her family and friends, according to a statement posted on her Web site. Her death was confirmed by Atamaniuk Funeral Home in Brattleboro, which was handling the arrangements.
"She was ahead of her time, but she lived in the past," said Jill Adams-Mancivalano, a longtime friend.
Tudor, who quit school after eighth grade, wrote or collaborated on nearly 100 children's books after making her debut with "Pumpkin Moonshine" in 1938. Besides "The Secret Garden," she illustrated "The Night Before Christmas" and wrote books of her own, including "Corgiville Fair."
Her home in this southern Vermont town was a replica of a 19th-century New England homestead, replete with antique utensils, tiny windows and doorways of varying sizes. In later life, she burnished her reputation among fans with her gardening, weaving and sewing exploits.
She made her own clothing - fashioned after 19th-century apparel - and raised Nubian goats for their milk.
Adams-Mancivalano, whose family farm in nearby Wilmington hosted open-to-the-public birthday parties and other events in which Tudor held forth with fans, called her a witty, engaging homebody who loved to insert friends, family members and little details of her own life into her work.
"Just to watch her draw - the detail and the whimsy that she had in her later life was just incredible. I asked her about that one time, how her work has evolved, and her comment to me was, 'Well, my eyesight is starting to fail, and I don't have the perfection I used to,' so she'd add more stuff."
Her family said an online memorial on her Web site was open for fans to share their feelings and memories of her. The address is http://www.tashatudorandfamily.com.

Jimi Hendrix - Hendrix Guitar To Be Auctioned
The guitar that JIMI HENDRIX set fire to at the London Astoria in 1967 is to be put up for auction.
It is thought to be the first guitar that the ELECTRIC LADYLAND star sent up in flames, an act that would go on to become his trademark, reports Uncut.
After being in storage for 40 years, the 1965 Fender Stratocaster is to go under the hammer this summer.
Hendrix's former manager Tony Garland remembered the event, saying: "When I arrived there was a discussion about setting fire to his guitar.
"So I went and got some lighter fuel and let them do what they wanted to do.
"Jimi was sensational. I can still remember the way his hands moved across the strings. People can do the notes... it's how you play them, the individual."
Showbiz Spy has reported that Jimi's cousin Riki recently broke his pelvis and punctured a lung after falling from scaffolding.
