Description

It’s our arts and culture week-in-review.

First up, it’s pumpkin soup for the protester’s soul. The Mona Lisa is the latest masterpiece to be slimed in the name of environmental activism. Is this an effective tactic or just weak sauce?

Then, it’s a pyramid scheme: an extreme makeover of Egyptian ruins is outraging archaeologists. From there, with Sundance wrapping up, we look at its sway in the film industry and its funky alternative film fest: Slamdance.

And we remember Chita Rivera, who danced and sang her way to an incomparable legacy.

Plus, it’s STILL rock and roll to Billy Joel who just released his first single in 17 years.

Finally, Huey Lewis was a pinch hitter, Michael Jackson’s pet snake rattled Lionel Ritchie and Eddie Murphy had better things to do…it’s all in a new documentary about the making of “We Are the World.”

That’s next on The Culture Show.
