Luca Bella Facinelli, daughter of Jennie Garth, has acted in six projects, including a TV movie and a reality TV show. Her big break came in 2019 when she starred in a Lifetime movie alongside her mother, playing a mother-daughter duo. Jennie Garth has advised her daughter to "do the work" and "put in the time" in building her acting career.

Luca Bella Facinelli is best known as Jennie Garth's daughter, and many are curious to see if she will follow in her mother's footsteps and become an actor. Jennie Garth first rose to fame in the early 1990s as Kelly Taylor on the wildly popular drama series Beverly Hills, 90210 which ran for 10 seasons and became a staple of that decade's popular culture. Afterward, Garth would continue to have success as an actor in various TV and movie projects, including a lengthy stint on the sitcom What I Like About You.

While there are certainly critiques that can be applied to Japan and its treatment of various LGBTQ+ groups, stories inspired by their lives and struggles have always thrived in the creative medium. The history of these stories can be traced back to the 1920s wherein the work of novelist Yoshiya Nobuko's exploration of female same-sex relationships influenced the development of both shojo and yuri manga in the decades that followed. The genre would continue to grow to what it is today thanks to seminal works like “The Heart of Thomas” and “Claudine“. While titles like these were trailblazers and worthy of note, the growth of the industry in better understanding various relationships still continues.

While there are classics worthy of checking out, from the previously mentioned “The Heart of Thomas” and “Claudine” to Naoko Takeuchi's “Pretty Sailor Moon” favorable portrayal and acceptance of queer characters such as Sailor Uranus and Sailor Neptune,...

“A girl falls in love and devotes herself to them, but they don’t conform to her expectations, perhaps because she looks at them through a blurry curtain.” Telling the story of highschool sweethearts turned strangers as their identities see them take different path, “Silkscreen” explores the complexities of love and loss.

Isaki Uta has an undeniable knack for capturing beauty through gorgeous/lush visuals and poignant narrative. This was previously established in her previous work in both “Mine-kun is Asexual” and “Leaper” acting as standouts within the Doujinshi format (short independently published works with mangaka having full ownership). “Silkscreen”, released in tandem with celebrating Lbtq+ pride, may act as the most impactful and stunning work from Uta to date.

The romantic and crisp visuals of Uta reflect a universal sense of beauty that can exist within everyone, regardless of gender or orientation. In addition, the...

Not long ago, Peter Facinelli went to meet with "Training Day" director Antoine Fuqua on a new project. Though Facinelli has been in the business for more than 15 years and has played a wide variety of characters, he is probably best known as Dr. Carlisle Cullen, the adoptive father to a brood of gorgeous vampires in the "Twilight" film series. Carlisle is described as eternally young and so good-looking he practically makes nurses faint in his wake, and it's not hard to see why the actor who got his big break as the hotshot jock in "Can't Hardly Wait" was the perfect choice for the role.But when Facinelli sat down with Fuqua and his producer, he made an offbeat suggestion. "I said, 'You know who I'd really love to play?' " he recalls. "They assumed I was talking about the lead role, for whom they were pursuing huge names.
