His and Gary Oldman’s portrayals are neck-in-neck (sorry) as the best Draculas. Old-school, great theater actor is Frank
(I saw that production of Fortune’s Fool; Bates sucked the air out of the room).

“ I love New York” promotional commercial with Frankl Langella dressed as Count Dracula standing in the center of all the famous stars. I’ll never forget that commercial. He is the most sensual Dracula I’ve ever seen. I would let him bite my neck. What a great voice. What a superb actor.

C’monnnn Frank. Actors with decades less experience have taken twice as long to “break down” their careers.

LAVISHLY DEMURE

Las Vegas Aces superstar A’ja Wilson shows us what’s inside her Labubu-laden Louis Vuitton bag. The WNBA MVP always carries two pairs of glasses, depending on what the occasion calls for, and pulls out her favorite snack, a bag of Sour Patch Kids. The most meaningful item in A’ja’s bag is her late grandmother’s coin purse, which she now uses to carry her ID cards. “I don’t put coins in it because my heart’s in it.”
