“I think we should try not to be cynical about the individuality of others. Perhaps instead of a disguise, people should see it as an expression.”
Lady Gaga, in her 10 Questions interview inside the latest issue of TIME, on newsstands now.
31 years ago… “John Lennon is shot to death at 40, and a bright dream fades. Just a voice out of the American night. “Mr. Lennon.” He started to turn around. There is no knowing whether John Lennon saw, for what would have been the second time that day, the young man in the black raincoat stepping out of the shadows. The first shot hit him that fast, through the chest. There were at least three others…”
![In next week’s issue of TIME, our Catherine Mayer profiles actress Tilda Swinton, visiting her in Scotland to talk about Swinton’s new film, We Need To Talk About Kevin. In it, Swinton plays Eva Khatchadourian, the conflicted mother of a teenager whose monstrous killing spree may partly reflect Eva’s own failings. Says Mayer about her trip:
“At Inverness airport — she insists on delivering me to my homeward plane — Swinton spots a toy crossbow for sale, complete with arrows tipped with suckers. Soon an arrow is planted in the middle of her forehead and she holds up the crossbow for a photograph. “I would say that’s a definite cover option, if not an alternative poster for [Kevin’s] worldwide release,” she emails later.”](http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lvw8kmDwRU1qcy1c2o1_500.jpg)

Before he was passionate about airline reform, Alec Baldwin tackled campaign-finance reform
LETTER TO THE EDITOR: In her observations on the creative Coalition’s effort in Massachusetts on behalf of campaign-finance reform [AMERICAN SCENE, Nov. 10], Tamala M. Edwards drew only a partial picture and overemphasized the impact of celebrity. Edwards failed to state that for all the autograph seekers who appeared, many more Massachusetts residents listened thoughtfully to the Creative Coalition’s presentation of the important points of the issue. They listened, and they signed our petitions. The Creative Coalition, joined by several other New York-based organizations, exceeded its most ambitious projections by gathering more than 8,000 signatures in one day. A clean-elections law has moved closer to becoming a reality in the Bay State, and the Creative Coalition is pleased to be a part of that process. - Alec Baldwin, President, The Creative Coalition, NEW YORK CITY
