Celebrated poet whose powerful work explored gender identity dies aged just 49
Andrea Gibson, who with wife Megan Falley is the subject of Come See Me in the Good Light, lost their battle with ovarian cancer on Monday, their partner confirmed A celebrated poet whose work explored gender identity and sexuality has died at just 49. Andrea Gibson's verse also told of their journey with ovarian cancer which they had battled for four years. The star lost their fight with the disease on Monday and died in their home, in Boulder, Colorado, surrounded by their wife Megan Falley, four ex-girlfriends, their mother and father, dozens of friends, and their three beloved dogs. The performance artist, a LGBTQ and social justice activist, is with Megan the the subject of documentary Come See Me in the Good Light, scheduled to air on Apple+ later this year. It has already won the Festival Favorite Award this year at the Sundance Film Festival. The film — exploring the couple's enduring love as Gibson battles cancer — is directed by Ryan White and includes an original song written by Gibson, Sara Bareilles and Brandi Carlile. During a screening at Sundance in January that left much of the audience in tears, Gibson said they didn't expect to live long enough to see the documentary. But Gibson, born in Calais, Maine, was determined to continue activism despite their cancer journey. The star released a series of poems in You Better Be Lightning in their latter years, for which Gibson's trademark honesty and vulnerability was praised by critics. These poems candidly explored love, illness, space, climate change and more topics. And In a poem Gibson wrote shortly before they died, titled "Love Letter from the Afterlife," they wrote: "Dying is the opposite of leaving. When I left my body, I did not go away. That portal of light was not a portal to elsewhere, but a portal to here. I am more here than I ever was before." Their optimism and philosophical outlook on life is remembered today. Tributes have poured in for the performer, as many LGBTQ+ fans have said Gibson's poetry helped them learn to love themselves. People with cancer and other terminal illnesses said Gibson made them less afraid of death by reminding them that we never really leave the ones we love. One fan said Gibson "saved" them. Aiden Williams Stay saw Gibson perform in a bar in San Francisco, a moment they said they will never forget. Stay later found the courage to come out as transgender. Gibson moved to Colorado in the 1990s. Colorado Governor Jared Polis said on Monday that the poet was 'truly one of a kind' and had 'a unique ability to connect with the vast and diverse poetry lovers of Colorado.'

Ted Lasso star Hannah Waddingham suffers from 'impostor syndrome' despite global success
Hannah Waddingham suffers from "impostor syndrome" constantly. The 50-year-old actress was an established name in theatre for decades before she shot to fame through her role in the Apple+ series Ted Lasso, but admitted that she is "absolutely not" a confident person at certain red carpet events. She told The Sunday Times: "Cannes is a completely different beast. "Walking up plenty of stairs in the gown is a bit like, 'Don't be the w***** who falls!' That's a lot of pink taffeta up in the I'm saying is, people shouldn't think that I'm endlessly confident because I'm absolutely not. I'm just good at styling it out. "I have massive impostor syndrome all the time." The Mission: Impossible star - who appeared in West End productions of musicals such as The Wizard of Oz and Into The Woods before she found success on screen - has an 10-year-old daughter from relationship that was the result of a natural conception after initially being told she wasn't able to have children, and insisted that the little one is the "utter joy" in her life these days. She said: "I was told I couldn't have children and then I went down the eastern medicine route, had my body balanced out. "Thank God she is the utter joy of my life because it is unyielding responsibility. I feel like more people should talk about how exhausting it is,' she says, chuckling. 'Not only physically showing up for them but being the best version of yourself, because they respond to actions far more than words." But Hannah is currently single, and admitted that she is actually "quite picky" when it comes to choosing a partner because she just cannot bear to have someone pessimistic in her life. She said: "I'm quite picky unless someone is sensational. "I can't have people in my life whose default setting is glass half empty. I just find it exhausting because I am absolutely the opposite."
