Oprah Winfrey has selected New York Times best-selling author Ann Napolitano's novel "Hello Beautiful" as her 100th book club selection.
Winfrey announced her choice first on "CBS Mornings" Wednesday, saying that the book's relatable message made it an easy pick for her.
"It's one of those choices where you feel like I can't wait for everybody else to have a chance to get to know these characters," Winfrey said.
On April 15, 1874 – 150 years ago – the first Impressionist exhibition opened on Rue du Capucines in Paris, featuring works by 30 artists, including Paul Cézanne, Edgar Degas, Claude Monet, Camille Pissarro, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. Hosted by the "Anonymous Society of Painters, Sculptors, and Engravers, etc.," it was founded in response to the Paris Salon, the annual, government-sponsored exhibition that would frequently reject the works of the rising artists.
Alec Baldwin had "no control" over his emotions on the set of a film where the cinematographer was shot dead, according to the prosecutor who has charged him with manslaughter. The Hollywood star was holding a Colt .45 during the preparation for a scene in the budget Western "Rust" when the gun went off, killing Halyna Hutchins and wounding director Joel Souza.
