Floria Sigismondi is a photographer and director. Apart from her art exhibitions she is best known for directing music videos. Her trademark dilating, jittery camerawork, noticeable as early as her video for Marilyn Manson's "The Beautiful People", has been replicated by a great number of directors since. Her parents, Lina and Domenico Sigismondi, were opera singers. Her family, including her sister Antonella, moved to Hamilton, Ontario, Canada when she was two. In her childhood she became obsessed by drawing and painting. Later, from 1987 she studied painting and illustration at the Ontario College of Art, today's Ontario College of Art & Design (OCAD). When she took a photography course, she became obsessed once more, and graduated with a photography major. Floria started a career as a fashion photographer. She came to directing music videos when she was approached by the production company The Revolver Film Co., and directed music videos for a number of Canadian bands. Her very innovative, but also very disturbing video works, located in sceneries she once described as "entropic underworlds inhabited by tortured souls and omnipotent beings", attracted a number of very prominent musicians. With her photography and sculpture installations she had solo exhibitions in Hamilton and Toronto, New York, Brescia, Italy, Göteborg, Sweden and London. Her photographs also were included in numerous group exhibitions, together with those of photographers like Cindy Sherman and Joel-Peter Witkin. The German art press Die Gestalten Verlag has published two monographs of her photography, "Redemption" (1999) and "Immune" (2005).

I love amerodd music and now plot of the trailer:- Super music video director and native Canadian, Floria Sigismondi, hit the jackpot when Twilights Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning were cast in her feature directorial debut, The Runaways—the '70s biopic about how famous rockers Joan Jett and Cherie Currie started the first all-girl rock band. Starring Kristen Stewart as Joan Jett (Stewart also sports Jetts famous rock hair) and Dakota Fanning as fellow founding member Cherie Currie, The Runaways is a rock 'n' roll movie thats based on the story of how a group of girls from ages 15 to 17 shot to superstardom with the help of famous producer Kim Fowley (played brilliantly by Michael Shannon). This was the perfect story for Sigismondi to dive into given her background directing music videos for artists such as The Cure, Marilyn Manson and more. Tributes Toni-Marie Ippolito sat down with Sigismondi to talk about what it was like filming with Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning, her reaction to seeing the stars in costume and how she helped Stewart and Fanning get into rock 'n roll mode—'70s style.

Floria Sigismondi (born 1965) is an italian, naturalised Canadian, photographer and director.
Apart from her art exhibitions, she is best known for writing and directing ''The Runaways'', starring Kristen Stewart and Dakota Fanning. Sigismondi has also directed music videos for Katy Perry, Marilyn Manson, David Bowie, Björk, The Cure, Christina Aguilera, The White Stripes, Fiona Apple, Sigur Rós, Muse, Interpol, Leonard Cohen, Incubus, and commercials for Old Navy, MAC, Adidas and Eaton's. Her trademark dilating, jittery camerawork, noticeable as early as her video for Manson's "The Beautiful People", has been replicated by a great number of directors since.
Life and career
Sigismondi was born in Pescara, Italy. Her parents, Lina and Domenico Sigismondi, were opera singers. Her family, including her sister Antonella, moved to Hamilton, Ontario, Canada when she was two. In her childhood she became obsessed by drawing and painting. Later, from 1987 she studied painting and illustration at the Ontario College of Art, today's Ontario College of Art & Design (OCAD). When she took a photography course, she became obsessed once more, and graduated with a photography major.Floria Sigismondi started a career as a fashion photographer. She came to directing music videos when she was approached by the production company ''The Revolver Film Co.'', and directed music videos for a number of Canadian bands. Her very innovative, but also very disturbing video works, located in sceneries she once described as "entropic underworlds inhabited by tortured souls and omnipotent beings", attracted a number of very prominent musicians. Sigismondi is currently represented for Music Videos by the production company Symphony 19 in Los Angeles, CA (US representation) and by Revolver (international representation).
With her photography and sculpture installations she had solo exhibitions in Hamilton and Toronto, New York, Brescia, Italy, Göteborg, Sweden and London. Her photographs also were included in numerous group exhibitions, together with artists such as Cindy Sherman, Joel-Peter Witkin, and Francesco Clemente. The German art press Die Gestalten Verlag has published two monographs of her photography, ''Redemption'' (1999) and ''Immune'' (2005).
In October 2004 she gave birth to a daughter, Tosca Vera Sigismondi-Berlin. The father is her husband Lillian Berlin, the lead singer of the American alternative rock band Living Things. Sigismondi resides in Toronto, New York City, and Los Angeles. Her daughter is named after the Italian opera Tosca. Floria herself was named after the main character.
Floria makes an appearance in the 2008 feature documentary by Nik Sheehan about Brion Gysin and the Dreamachine entitled 'FLicKeR'.
Film project
Sigismondi's first feature-length film is ''The Runaways'', a period piece about the 1970s all-girl rock and roll band The Runaways. The film is largely about the relationship between Joan Jett (played by Kristen Stewart in the film) and Cherie Currie (played by Dakota Fanning). Sigismondi wrote the screenplay based on Currie's book ''Neon Angel: A Memoir of a Runaway''. The film premiered in 2010 at the Sundance Film Festival and was released in Canada and the United States in March 2010. In an interview with Exclaim!, Sigismondi said "I went in and said I didn't want to make this a straight-up biography. I want to make this a coming of age, because that's what's so interesting about them. And if you want to compare them to anybody else, that's what makes them so special, is how young they were, and that they were all female. So those kinds of things really resonated with me."

Life and career
Cherie's parents were Don Currie and actress Marie Harmon. She was raised in the Encino district of Los Angeles in the San Fernando Valley. Her sisters are actress Sondra Currie and her twin, Marie Currie.Currie was the teenage lead vocalist for the all-female rock band The Runaways with bandmates Joan Jett, Lita Ford, Sandy West and Jackie Fox. ''Bomp!'' magazine described her as "the lost daughter of Iggy Pop and Brigitte Bardot".
Currie, not yet 16, joined The Runaways in 1975. The teen rock anthem "Cherry Bomb" was written for her at the audition. Attitudes to her impact at that time differ; one reviewer has written that "the received wisdom that [the Runaways] carved out new territory for female musicians is hard to justify - it's doubtful that the predominantly male audience who flocked to see the 16 year old [Currie] in her undies picked up any feminist subtext".
After three albums with The Runaways, (''The Runaways'', ''Queens of Noise'', and ''Live in Japan'' ), Currie went on to record two independent albums (''Beauty's Only Skin Deep'' for Polygram Records, and ''Messin' With The Boys'' with twin sister Marie Currie for Capitol Records). She then worked as an actress, starring in movies such as ''Foxes'', ''Parasite'', ''Wavelength'', ''Twilight Zone: The Movie'', ''The Rosebud Beach Hotel'', ''Rich Girl'', and others, as well as numerous guest spots on TV series (''Matlock'' and ''Murder She Wrote'', among others).
Currie struggled with drug addiction throughout much of her young life, which largely factored into why her career ended so abruptly. She later wrote a memoir called ''Neon Angel'' recounting life in the band and her traumatic experiences with drug addiction, sex abuse and her broken family. ''The Runaways'' movie, a 2010 musical biographical drama film (which was executive-produced by Joan Jett), focuses on the group's early beginnings and explores the relationship between Currie and Jett. In the film Currie is portrayed by Dakota Fanning.
Currie was married to actor Robert Hays in the 1990s and they had one son together, Jake Hays. They are now divorced.
In 2008, Currie contributed to Carrie Borzillo-Vrenna's book, ''Cherry Bomb''.
Currently, Currie is a wood carving artist who uses a chain saw to create her works.
Currie is putting the finishing touches on a new album, produced by current Velvet Revolver drummer, ex-Guns N' Roses drummer Matt Sorum, due out in 2011. This will be Currie's first album since 1980. During an interview with Cherie Currie and Matt Sorum on That Metal Show, Matt revealed that ex-Guns N' Roses and current Velvet Revolver band mates Slash and Duff McKagan as well as Smashing Pumpkins vocalist Billy Corgan, who has written and sings a duet with Cherie, are also on the album. The rest of the album's line-up was also revealed on the Road Runner website.

Hannah Dakota Fanning (born February 23, 1994), better known as Dakota Fanning, is an American actress. Fanning's breakthrough performance was in ''I Am Sam'' in 2001. As a child actress, she appeared in high-profile films such as ''Man on Fire'', ''War of the Worlds'', and ''Charlotte's Web''. Fanning began the transition to more adult roles with ''Hounddog'' and ''The Secret Life of Bees''. Recent films have included ''The ''Twilight Saga'''', the fantasy/horror animated children's movie ''Coraline'' and ''The Runaways''. She has won numerous awards and is the youngest nominee for a Screen Actors Guild Award.
Early and personal life
Fanning was born in Conyers, Georgia, the daughter of Joy Fanning (née Arrington), who played tennis professionally, and Steve J. Fanning, who played minor league baseball and now works as an electronics salesman in Los Angeles. Her maternal grandfather was former American football player, Rick Arrington, and her aunt is former ESPN reporter Jill Arrington. Dakota is the older sister of Elle Fanning, also an actress.Fanning has German and Irish ancestry. She and her family are Southern Baptist. In June 2011, she graduated from Campbell Hall School in North Hollywood, California, where she participated on the varsity spirit cheerleading squad and was voted homecoming queen.
Fanning has been accepted early into New York University and will enroll in Fall 2011.
Acting career
Early years
Fanning began acting at the age of five after appearing on a Tide commercial. Her first significant acting job was a guest role in the NBC prime-time drama ''ER'', which remains one of her favorite roles ("I played a car accident victim who has leukemia. I got to wear a neck brace and nose tubes for the two days I worked.").Fanning subsequently had several guest roles on established television series, including ''CSI: Crime Scene Investigation'', ''The Practice'', and ''Spin City''. She also portrayed the title characters of ''Ally McBeal'' and ''The Ellen Show'' as young girls. In 2001, Fanning was chosen to star opposite Sean Penn in the movie ''I Am Sam'', the story of a mentally challenged man who fights for the custody of his daughter (played by Fanning).
Her role in the film made Fanning the youngest person ever to be nominated for a Screen Actors Guild Award, being seven years of age at the time. She also won the Best Young Actor/Actress award from the Broadcast Film Critics Association for her performance.
2002–2003
In 2002, director Steven Spielberg cast Fanning in the lead child role of Allison "Allie" Clarke/Keys in the science fiction miniseries ''Taken''. By this time, she had received positive notices by several film critics, including Tom Shales of ''The Washington Post'', who wrote that Fanning "has the perfect sort of otherworldly look about her, an enchanting young actress called upon ... to carry a great weight."In the same year, Fanning appeared in three films: as a kidnap victim who proves to be more than her abductors bargained for in ''Trapped'', as the young version of Reese Witherspoon's character in ''Sweet Home Alabama'', and as Katie in the movie ''Hansel and Gretel''.
Fanning was featured even more prominently in two films released in 2003: playing the uptight child to an immature nanny played by Brittany Murphy in ''Uptown Girls'' and as Sally in ''The Cat in the Hat''.
Fanning did voice-over work for four animated projects during this period, including voicing Satsuki in Disney's English language release of ''My Neighbor Totoro'', a little girl in the Fox series ''Family Guy'', and a young Wonder Woman in an episode of Cartoon Network's ''Justice League''.
2004–2005
In 2004, Fanning appeared in ''Man on Fire'' as Pita, a nine-year-old who wins over the heart of a retired mercenary (Denzel Washington) hired to protect her from kidnappers. Roger Ebert wrote that Fanning "is a pro at only 10 years old, and creates a heart-winning character." She was also the voice of Satsuki Kusakabe in the Disney re-dub of the 1988 Hayao Miyazaki animated film, My Neighbor Totoro.''Hide and Seek'' was her first release in 2005, opposite Robert De Niro. The film was generally panned, and critic Chuck Wilson called it "a fascinating meeting of equals – if the child star [Fanning] challenged the master [De Niro] to a game of stare-down, the legend might very well blink first." Fanning voiced Lilo (succeeding Daveigh Chase) in the direct-to-video film ''Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch''. She also had a small part in the Rodrigo Garcia film ''Nine Lives'' (released in October 2005), in which she shared an unbroken nine-minute scene with actress Glenn Close, who had her own praise for Fanning: "She's definitely an old soul. She's one of those gifted people that come along every now and then." Fanning also recorded voice work for ''Coraline'' during this time.
Fanning completed filming on ''Dreamer: Inspired by a True Story'' (opposite Kurt Russell) in late October 2004. Russell declared he was astonished by his co-star's performance in the film. Russell, 54, who plays her father in the movie, says, "I guarantee you, (Dakota) is the best actress I will work with in my entire career." Kris Kristofferson, who plays her character's grandfather in the movie, said that she's like Bette Davis reincarnated.
While promoting her role in ''Dreamer'', Fanning became a registered member of Girl Scouts of the USA at a special ceremony, which was followed by a screening of the film for members of the Girl Scouts of the San Fernando Valley Council. She is not a member of a troop, but rather registered as a "Juliette", GSUSA's title for independently registered girls.
She then went directly to the set of ''War of the Worlds'', starring alongside Tom Cruise. Released in reverse order (''War'' in June 2005 and ''Dreamer'' in the following October), both films were critical successes. ''War'' director Steven Spielberg praised "how quickly she understands the situation in a sequence, how quickly she sizes it up, measures it up and how she would really react in a real situation."
After filming was completed on ''War of the Worlds'', Fanning moved straight to another film without a break: ''Charlotte's Web,'' which she finished filming in May 2005 in Australia. Producer Jordan Kerner said, "...when she was so caught up in ''War of the Worlds'', we had to end up going on a search for other young actresses. They would have been nothing compared to her."
2006–2007
Over the summer of 2006, Fanning worked on the film ''Hounddog'', described in press reports as a "dark story of abuse, violence and Elvis Presley adulation in the rural South." Fanning's parents have been criticized for allowing her to film a scene in which her character is raped. However, in response, Fanning said that "It's not really happening," to Reuters. "It's a movie, and it's called acting."In 2006, at the age of twelve, she was invited to join the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, becoming the youngest member in the Academy's history. Her income for 2006 was $4 million, earning her the fourth place in Forbes Magazine's list of top-earning stars aged under 21.
In March and April 2007, she filmed ''Fragments – Winged Creatures'' alongside Kate Beckinsale, Guy Pearce, Josh Hutcherson, and Academy Award winners Forest Whitaker and Jennifer Hudson. She plays Anne Hagen, a girl who witnesses her father's murder and who turns to religion in the aftermath.
In July 2007, Fanning filmed for three days a short film titled ''Cutlass'', one of ''Glamour'''s "Reel Moments" based on readers' personal essays. ''Cutlass'' was directed by Kate Hudson.
From September to December 2007, Fanning filmed ''Push,'' which centers on a group of young American expatriates with telekinetic and clairvoyant abilities who hide from a U.S. government agency in Hong Kong and band together to try to escape the control of the division. Fanning played Cassie Holmes, a 13-year-old psychic.
2008–2009
In January 2008, Fanning began filming the movie adaptation of ''The Secret Life of Bees'', a novel by Sue Monk Kidd. Set in South Carolina in 1964, the story centers on Lily Owens (Fanning), who escapes her lonely life and troubled relationship with her father by running away with her caregiver and only friend (played by Jennifer Hudson) to a South Carolina town where they are taken in by an eccentric trio of beekeeping sisters (played by Queen Latifah, Sophie Okonedo, and Alicia Keys). Her movies ''Coraline'' and ''Push'' were released on the same day, February 6, 2009.Fanning played Jane, a member of the Volturi Guard, in ''New Moon'' and reprised the role in ''Eclipse'', based on novels by Stephenie Meyer. ''New Moon'' was released on November 20, 2009, and ''Eclipse'' was released on June 30, 2010.
2010–present
In 2010, she starred in the movie ''The Runaways'', alongside Kristen Stewart, Stella Maeve, and Scout Taylor-Compton, where she played Cherie Currie, the lead singer of the band. In late 2010/early 2011, Fanning filmed ''Breaking Dawn'', reprising the role of Jane.Dakota was originally set to star as Mia, the lead role in the film adaption of '' If I Stay '' based on the novel, but later withdrew from the project. In December 2010, it was announced that Fanning would not be filming any lead roles until after she finishes high school in 2011.
Dakota Fanning will play Princess Margaret in the upcoming film ''Girls' Night Out''. She will play Annie James in "The Motel Life" in February. She has also signed onto "Mississippi Wild", which will begin production in Atlanta on March 21, 2011 and will be released into theaters in 2012. She will play Tessa in ''Now Is Good''.

Kristen Jaymes Stewart (born April 9, 1990) is an American actress. She is best known for playing Bella Swan in ''The Twilight Saga''. She has also starred in films including ''Panic Room'' (2002), ''Zathura'' (2005), ''In the Land of Women'' (2007), ''The Messengers'' (2007), ''Adventureland'' (2009) and ''The Runaways'' (2010).
Early life
Stewart was born and raised in Los Angeles, California. Her father, John Stewart, is a stage manager and television producer who has worked for Fox. Her mother, Jules Mann-Stewart, is a script supervisor originally from Maroochydore, Queensland, Australia. She has an older brother, Cameron Stewart, and an adoptive brother, Taylor. Stewart attended school until the seventh grade, and then continued her education by correspondence. She has since completed high school.
Career
Her whole family all worked behind the camera, and Stewart thought she would become a writer/director, but never considered being an actor. "I never wanted to be the center of attention – I wasn't that 'I want to be famous, I want to be an actor' kid. I never sought out acting, but I always practiced my autograph because I love pens. I'd write my name on everything." Stewart's acting career began at the age of eight, after an agent saw her perform in her elementary school's Christmas play. After a year of auditioning, Stewart's first role was a nonspeaking part in the film ''The Thirteenth Year''. Then, she had another part in the film ''The Flintstones in Viva Rock Vegas'' as the "ring toss girl". She subsequently appeared in the independent film ''The Safety of Objects'', in which she played the tomboy daughter of a troubled single mother (Patricia Clarkson). Stewart had a major role in the Hollywood film ''Panic Room'', playing the diabetic daughter of a divorced mother (Jodie Foster). The film received generally positive reviews, and Stewart garnered positive notices for her performance. She was nominated for a Young Artist Award for her performance.
After ''Panic Room''s success, Stewart was cast in another thriller, ''Cold Creek Manor'', playing the daughter of Dennis Quaid's and Sharon Stone's characters. She was again nominated for a Young Artist Award for her performance. The following year, she played the character Maya in ''Fierce People'', directed by Griffin Dunne. After that film, she received the lead role of Jess Solomon in the supernatural thriller film ''The Messengers''.
In 2007, Stewart appeared as teenager Lucy Hardwicke in ''In the Land of Women'', a romantic drama starring Meg Ryan and Adam Brody. The film, as well as Stewart's performance, received mixed reviews. That same year, Stewart appeared in Sean Penn's critically acclaimed adaptation film ''Into the Wild''. For her portrayal of Tracy – a teenage singer who has a crush on young adventurer Christopher McCandless – Stewart received generally positive reviews. Salon.com considered her work a "sturdy, sensitive performance", and the ''Chicago Tribune'' noted that she did "vividly well with a sketch of a role." Her performance was not without detractors, however; ''Variety'''s critic Dennis Harvey wrote, "It's unclear whether Stewart means to be playing hippie-chick Tracy as vapid, or whether it just comes off that way." After ''Into the Wild'', Stewart had a cameo appearance in ''Jumper'' and also appeared in ''What Just Happened'', which was released in October 2008. She also co-stars in ''The Cake Eaters'' an independent film that has only been screened at film festivals.
On November 16, 2007, Summit Entertainment announced that Stewart would play Isabella "Bella" Swan in the film ''Twilight'', based on Stephenie Meyer's bestselling vampire romance novel of the same name. Stewart was on the set of ''Adventureland'' when director Catherine Hardwicke visited her for an informal screen test which "captivated" the director. She stars alongside Robert Pattinson, who plays Edward Cullen, her character's vampire boyfriend. The film began production in February 2008 and finished filming in May 2008. ''Twilight'' was released domestically on November 21, 2008. Her performance garnered mixed reviews with some critcs calling her "the ideal casting choice" and praising her for conveying "Bella's detachment, as well as her need to bust through it" while others criticized her acting for being "wooden" and lacking variety in her facial expressions which they described as "blank". After the release of ''Twilight'', Kristen Stewart was awarded the MTV Movie Award for Best Female Performance for her portrayal as Bella Swan.
Stewart reappeared as Bella in the sequel, ''The Twilight Saga: New Moon'' to critical acclaim, receiving much more positive reviews than her portrayal of the same character in ''Twilight''. Jordan Mintzer from ''Variety'' called Stewart "the heart and soul of the film" and praised her for giving "both weight and depth to dialogue...that would sound like typical chick-lit blather in the mouth of a less engaging actress, and she makes Bella's psychological wounds seem like the real deal" while critics who gave the film its worst reviews still found her performance "bringing plenty of soul" to the character. She reprised this role in ''The Twilight Saga: Eclipse''.
Stewart has been nominated and presented with the BAFTA Rising Star award. At the 2010 82nd Annual Academy Awards, Stewart and ''Twilight'' co-star Taylor Lautner presented a tribute in honour of the horror movie genre.
In 2009, Stewart starred in ''The Yellow Handkerchief'', which debuted at the Sundance Film Festival and was released into theaters in 2010 by Samuel Goldwyn Films. She also starred alongside James Gandolfini in ''Welcome to the Rileys'', which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2010.
Stewart most recently portrayed rock star Joan Jett in ''The Runaways'', a biopic of the titular band from writer-director Floria Sigismondi. Stewart met with Jett over the 2008–2009 New Year to prepare for the role, and ended up prerecording songs in a studio for the film. She received nearly unanimous praise for her performance. Josh Tyler of ''Cinema Blend'' pronounced her to be "a modern day James Dean. She gives the kind of performance in ''The Runaways'' that hasn’t been seen on screen since his death. ''The Runaways'' is her ''Rebel Without a Cause'' ... she’s absolutely brilliant as Joan Jett." The ''Metro Times'' wrote, "It turns out that Stewart is actually really good at capturing Jett's icy, tough-but-cool girl swagger, adding the needed touches of vulnerability that transform it into a pretty terrific performance... Stewart is a genuine rock star here." Also, A. O. Scott of ''The New York Times'' noted "Ms. Stewart, watchful and unassuming, gives the movie its spine and soul."
She has been cast in the role of Mary Lou in an upcoming film adaptation of Jack Kerouac's cult classic novel ''On the Road''. Shooting began in August 2010.
Stewart was listed as the highest earning female actress in Hollywood in the "2010's Top Hollywood Top Earners List" compiled by ''Vanity Fair''. Throughout 2010, Stewart earned an estimated $28.5 million for all her movie appearances.
''The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn- Part 1'' was released on November 18, 2011. The film was successful in the box office making $283.5 million its opening weekend. Though the film received negative reviews, Stewart's performance was mostly praised. Gabriel Chong said that Stewart's performance, calling it "mesmerising" and saying that she "makes [Bella's] every emotion keenly felt that runs the gamut from joy, trepidation, anxiety, distress and above all quiet and resolute determination" and the ''Village Voice'''s Dan Konis saying Stewart "beautifully underplays" the role. However, some critics found that despite Pattinson and Stewart's chemistry, the relationship came off like a "charade" or that none of the three leads were convincing in their roles.
In March 2011, it was confirmed that Stewart will playing the leading role in the film ''Snow White and the Huntsman''. Filming began on August 15 and is set to be released on June 1, 2012.
Stewart has also been attached to an upcoming big-budget, live-action adaptation of ''Akira'' from Warner Brothers for the role of Ky.
On December 6, 2011, Stewart was named number one on Forbes magazine's list of Hollywood's Best Actors for the Buck.
She was named the new face of an unnamed Balenciaga perfume on January 13, 2012.
Personal life
Stewart currently lives in Woodland Hills, Los Angeles. She has expressed a desire to live and work in Australia, saying, "I want to go to Sydney University in Australia. My mom's from there." Apart from acting, she is also interested in attending college in the near future, saying, "I want to go to college for literature. I want to be a writer. I mean, I love what I do, but it's not all I want to do – be a professional liar for the rest of my life." In a 2008 interview with ''Vanity Fair'', Stewart stated that she dated Michael Angarano, her co-star from ''Speak''.

Controversy
In 2001, after a concert in Kansas City, Lillian was stabbed after a show because of his opinion on the events of 9/11. In 2004, Lillian was involved in a similar incident when after a show at the Gypsy Tea Room in Dallas he was shot and pistol whipped because of his on-stage talk disparaging the Republican Party. In 2006, while opening for Alter Bridge in Switzerland, Berlin's politics allegedly caused members of Alter Bridge to attack Living Things' guitarist Cory Becker and Berlin's brother, Bosh Berlin. Alter Bridge denies the Living Things' side of the story, saying Cory Becker attacked their crew members. In 2004 he was arrested at The Republican Convention in New York for protesting George Bush. In 2005, Berlin's Gibson Black ES-335 caught on fire at Los Angeles Club The Troubadour during a raucous sold out performance that stopped the show mid set. In 2009, Berlin released the controversial book "Postmortem Bliss" which chronicles teen prescription drug abuse in the late 90's. An excerpt from the book was turned into a short film for Turner Classic Movies, and directed by his wife, Floria Sigismondi.
