Ora, François Rousseau's Tahitian Journey

François Rousseau's new book, Ora, is to be published on April 9. "After numerous voyages to Tahiti and its isles, the idea came to me for a 'Polynesian' album," says the French photographer. "As with all my photographic series, texts are at the origin of my images. In January 2006, Temehameharii Coeroli showed me his poems inspired by and impregnated with Tahitian oral culture. These chants have come to form the structure of our joint book. Ora is life, the source of life. Long before leaving for Tahiti, when I was preparing this voyage, this Tahitian word already figured in my notes as a possible title. Of all the words taken from Temehameharii’s poems, this one, as much for its sense as for its musicality, evoked all that I had loved in Tahiti during my earlier voyages and which I hoped to capture and reunite in this album." A special website with unpublished photos, video, music & making-of of the shooting has been launched for the occasion. Visit Ora's website here...

Ora is already available for pre-order on Amazon.fr, and soon on Amazon.com. Previous books by François Rousseau are available: Princes of the Sea, Amor Causa, Male Nudes, Locker Room Nudes/Dieux du Stade, Habibi NYC

OUT undresses Tom Ford

After Marc Jacobs, OUT Magazine undresses 45-year-old American fashion designer Tom Ford in its upcoming November issue. Tom Ford talks about the word Gay: "I have to say I don't think gay is the most attractive word; if I were art-directing the creation of a word that would describe homosexuals, I think I might have tried to find another one. Gay makes us sound silly and frivolous, which is probably where it came from originally - it was first used in a Cole Porter song in the '30s - and I think it was probably a bit derogatory, and so it's not a word I necessarily like, but it's what I am, whatever."

About straight guys, Ford says "I have a lot of gay friends, but I'd say my closest friends who are male are straight, and I don't know why that is... maybe because I always get crushes on them." About women he says: "I love women, I just don't fall in love with them, but I'm attracted to them, I find their bodies beautiful..."

Tatum, Phillippe, Gordon-Levitt, Rasuk in Esquire

Based on a true story adapted for the screen by Kimberly Peirce (who directed Boys Don't Cry), Stop-Loss centers on decorated Iraq war hero Sgt. Brandon King (Ryan Phillippe), a soldier who makes a celebrated return to his small Texas hometown following his tour of duty and is called to duty again in Iraq through the military's "stop-loss" procedure. Brandon tries to resume the life he left behind with the help and support of his loving family, and his best friend, Steve (Channing Tatum), who served with Brandon in Iraq. Director Kimberly Peirce cast some of today's brightest young actors, Channing Tatum, Ryan Phillippe, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Victor Rasuk and Abbie Cornish. The film is scheduled to be released at the end of March 2008.
Peirce recently rejoined her cast, all of them dressed in this season's most versatile color, gray, on the outskirts of Los Angeles, with photographer Matt Jones for next issue of Esquire.
