Ricky Martin. by Randall, Nick,film director.; Martin, Ricky,actor.; Legacy Distribution (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Ricky MartinOriginally produced by Legacy Distribution in 2025.Third time was the charm. Twice turned down by Menudo for being too short, Ricky Martin (née Enrique Martin Morales) joined the boy band at age 12 and emerged as a teen heartthrob. Five years later, he was on his own, singing 5 languages, propelling Latin pop to mainstream music. There was Mexican theater, a TV show, then an American soap opera and sitcom along the way. The child who began as a choir altar boy and sang fast food TV ads in Puerto Rico would transcend his “Livin’ La Vida Loca” lyrics and reveal his true self as a gay man. A six-year marriage, 4 children by surrogacy, and divorce would follow. Some may call it “A Loco Life.”Mode of access: World Wide Web.

John & Paul : a love story in songs / by Leslie, Ian,1972-author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."John Lennon and Paul McCartney knew each other for twenty-three years, from 1957 to 1980. This book is the myth-shattering biography of a relationship that changed the cultural history of the world. The Beatles shook the world to its core in the 1960's and, to this day, new generations continue to fall in love with their songs and their story. At the heart of this phenomenon lies the dynamic between John Lennon and Paul McCartney. Few other musical partnerships have been rooted in such a deep, intense and complicated personal relationship. John and Paul's relationship was defined by its complexity: compulsive, tender and tempestuous; full of longing, riven by jealousy. Like the band, their relationship was always in motion, never in equilibrium for long. John & Paul traces its twists and turns and reveals how these shifts manifested themselves in the music. The two of them shared a private language, rooted in the stories, comedy and songs they both loved as teenagers, and later, in the lyrics of Beatles songs. In John & Paul, acclaimed writer Ian Leslie uses the songs they wrote to trace the shared journey of these two compelling men before, during, and after The Beatles. Drawing on recently released footage and recordings, Leslie offers us an intimate and insightful new look at two of the greatest icons in music history, and rich insights into the nature of creativity, collaboration, and human intimacy"--
