Difficulty Level ★★
To Betty White's way of thinking, retirement is for people who hate their jobs. That's why the 91-year-old funny lady, a TV icon who has won seven Emmy Awards, refuses to call it quits.
There's nothing about acting and make people laugh that bores her. "My problem is I love what I'm doing, and I love this business, and I enjoy the work, and I love the people I work with," White says.

Not only is she still going strong in the fourth season of TV Land's "Hot in Cleveland" (10 p.m. Wednesday), but she also hosts a hidden-camera

"When I started out, television was that miracle on the box in the corner of the room. Over the years, as television got to be such a major part of our lives, the audience has heard every joke. They know every storyline. They know where you're going almost before the first line is out. That's a hard audience to surprise and a hard audience to entertain. And it gets more difficult all the time."

Sheer fabrics, neutrals dominate Paris runways
FASHION
CALLAN REILLY creillv@kansan.com
This week Paris hosted the Haute Couture Fashion Week, where the most fabulous and well-known designers displayed their spring and summer 2013 designs for the very first time. Celebrities like Salma Hayek, Diane Krueger and the infamous Anna Wintour filled the front row seats of shows such as Chanel, Versace and Giambatista Valli.
While every line was showstopping, nothing compared to French designer Stephane Rolland's black and white gowns. Rolland's magical pieces were a perfect blend of structured meets flowy, creating a sexy and sophisticated line of gowns that had the crowd drooling. Black and white were the only colors used, despite one gray train on one dress and a jeweled emerald peplum on another. Wide-legged trousers and jumpsuits, floral embellishments and unexpected mesh inserts were frequent in Rolland's designs.

Common trends seen on the runways were tons of black and white, plunging necklines, peplums and major tulle and sheer fabrics. Think trendy punk meets ballerina. Another pattern in the flawless pieces; necklines. From low cut and risque to statuesque turtleneck, necklines were all about the detail in design Alexis Mabile's line.

It's also nice to see that blazers aren't going anywhere anytime soon, considering my last article advised that every woman should have one in her closest.

Theater embraces digital age by offering free 'tweet seats'
ASSOCIATED PRESS
PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Sarah Bertness slipped into her seat at a recent staging of the musical "Million Dollar Quartet" and, when the lights dimmed, started doing something that's long been taboo inside theaters: typing away at her iPhone.
The 26-year-old freelance writer from Providence wasn't being rude. She had a spot in the "tweet seat" section at the Providence Performing Arts Center.
The downtown theater is now setting aside a small number of seats — in the back — for those who promise to live-tweet from the performance using a special hash tag. They might offer impressions of the set, music or costumes, lines of dialogue that resonate with them or anything else that strikes them, really.
A growing number of theaters, including some on Broadway, have been experimenting in recent years with tweet seats and other real-time uses of social media as they try to figure out the relationship between the stage and the
At "Million Dollar Quartet," based on the true story of a 1956 recording session that united music greats Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis and Carl Perkins, PPAC for the first time had cast members tweeting from backstage, too.

Some insist the theater should remain a sacred, technology-free place and that allowing the use of phones during a show — even discreetly — only serves as a potential distraction for other patrons. But others say theaters can't afford not to engage the digital generation, and that the way performances

"It's important that.. cultural institutions... jump on the social media bandwagon."
"I think that it's important that PPAC and cultural institutions in general kind of jump on the social media bandwagon and learn to engage a broader audience," said Bertness, who runs the blog The Rhode Islander. "I think it's such a valuable tool."
PPAC isn't sure yet whether any social media buzz generated by those in the tweet seats will have a measurable effect at the box office. But spokeswoman P.J. Prokop said the theater intends to keep the program through the end of the year, and then evaluate it. Those who sit in the tweet seats get their tickets for free.
