TIL about this magic combo from my childhood
I cant! 💔💔💔 Diane Keaton was such a talent and a BIG part of my career. She directed two videos of mine - "Heaven Is A Place on Earth" and the video for "I Get Weak." She was kind and eccentric and I was blessed to know her. RIP Diane, you will be missed. 💔
