    I'm not sure as that was in a film i think, whereas this is referring to a stage play performance. Really baffling.

    3a: There's a play about Sam Cooke in Detroit at_myfoxdetroit.com/dpp/mornings/the-life-story-of-sam-cooke - but can't find cast photos to confirm - the style could be him or Marvin Gaye or even Harry Belafonte but I can't turn anything up on any of them.
    8ii: Can anyone confirm that this is Tony Blair and not Peter Mandelson - it's the sort of pithy, weasly thing that either of them might come out with and they've both penned autobiographies this year.
    38: Still nothing specific - could be gay rights???

    Thanks for all the other helpful contributions.

    Here's a link about that Sam Cooke play - http://www.mediasanctuary.org/node/1831 ~I cannot find the pic they use in the FT though. I must say though that the FT pic does indeed resemble Sam cooke... but is it this actor - Michael Monasterial who plays him in the play???

    V difficult. The tineye pics come back a bit of a blank as they refer to swedish site with youtube links relating to other things.

    ...................................................?
  • Re Q 38 - it could be:

    - something to do with gay rights - Eminem, Lady G, Elton all pro, Limbaugh famously anti, yet had EJ play at his wedding? who knows?

    - something to do with duets/ performances? - Eminem and Elton have apparently duetted together....as have Lady Gaga and Elton John (at the last Grammy's...which incidentally is where that pic of Lady Gaga was taken...unless she wore that outfit out twice which seems unlikely). Limbaugh was apparently famously shown dancing to Lady Gaga as a judge on some show or other....so is there something tenuous here?

    - the grammys - EJ, Eminem and Lady G were there in 2010. Was Limbaugh in the audience or?!

    Could the link on Q38 be something to do with their original names or even that they changed their birth names?

    Eminem -Marshall Bruce Mathers III
    Lady Gaga -Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta
    Elton John - Reginald Kenneth
    Rush Limbaugh - James Golden

    Sorry been jumping in and out of here and been clueless but thought I'd ask this:)

    good find - this is the chap I mentioned, Michael Monasterial....I think it's definitiely him :T So the answer is therefore Sam Cooke.
