Flash Lites: Rip 'N' Read Pop Culture Recap

Los Angeles, CA (WFN) -- Stephen Stills is being honored for his charitable works today in Boston. Stills will receive the "Children's Champion Award" from UNICEF, a honor given previously to Judy Collins, Roger Moore and Nelson Mandela.

HOUSTON -- Motley Crue singer Vince Neil is taking a swing at hosting a celebrity golf tournament. On May 6, the rocker is launching the Skylar Neil Memorial Golf Tournament, a charity event for cancer, leukemia and AIDS research. The tournament is named after Neil's daughter, who died from stomach cancer at the age of four.

LONDON -- Ingrid Bergman had one big regret about her acting career: She didn't accept a part in Charlton Heston's monkey movie "Planet of the Apes." Bergman's daughter, Isabella Rossellini, tells London's "Time Out" magazine that her mom was tired of always playing ladylike characters and "realized that all those putty muzzles on the ape actors would have liberated her from her image in an instant." However, Bergman waited too long to say "yes" to a part in the movie, so the producers cast someone else.

MINNEAPOLIS -- The building from "The Mary Tyler Moore" show is up for sale for $1.7 million. The five-bedroom Victorian home in Minneapolis was used for exterior shots of the third-floor apartment where Mary lived alongside her kooky neighbor Rhoda, but neither actress ever set foot in the home. "The Pioneer Press" reports the house has been on the market since March, but only recently did the owners publicize the sale with a sign on the front lawn.
