In an interview with the Brisbane Times, an Australian newspaper, she opened up about her father, saying: 'What you saw on camera was what you got, and … he was the best dad ever, and for me, I want to make sure that his legacy never dies and I want to carry on in his footsteps.'
'After losing him, that doesn’t go away … it’s kind of like a piece of your heart that goes further.'
She said she’d 'like to tackle bigger issues facing our world today,' such as overpopulation.
Her new adventure-fantasy film is directed by Brendan Maher and also stars Matthew Lillard, Toby Wallace and John Waters.
As well as staring on TV and having her own internet show, Bindi was recently asked to write an essay for Hilary Clinton's e-journal.

But the teenager was left furious when her 1,000 word piece was heavily cut by editors and she has refused to allow it appear in the journal.

Her essay was scheduled to be published in the December issue of Mrs Clinton's e-journal titled Go Wild Coming Together for Conservation as part of the Secretary of State's endangered species initiative.
Her writing was heavily reworked and returned to her for approval before publication and she was left angry with how her work had been altered. 
Bindi's mother, Terri, widow of the crocodile hunter, told Sydney's Daily Telegraph that her daughter was less than impressed with the treatment she had received from the US State Department.

Betsey Johnson brings adorable granddaughter with her to Macy's for the launch of her new cut-price dress collection

Betsey Johnson brought her adorable granddaughter Layla to Macy's yesterday to help her celebrate the launch of her new dress collection.
The five-year-old drew on the floors with lipstick and tucked into a bowl of jellybeans while her designer grandmother painted the walls and dressed the mannequins inside a window of the store. 
And the finished product was a groovy display of Ms Johnson's spring line featuring bold colors, flouncy textures and ultra-feminine silhouettes.

Coolest grandmother ever: Betsey Johnson brought her adorable granddaughter Layla (left) to Macy's yesterday to help her celebrate the launch of her new dress collection
'This is special, isn't it?' Ms Johnson said to MailOnline of the family affair in New York's Herald Square. 'I mean, I couldn't have planned it better. I wish every appearance could be like this.'
The energetic 70-year-old, who is famous for ending her runway shows with a cartwheel, sipped on champagne as she painted red lips onto mannequins, threw sparkles into the air, and played up to an audience that watched her from outside the window.
 
She even strummed on a guitar, beaming beneath her signature platinum locks.
From all the fun she was having, you would never guess that Ms Johnson's namesake fashion label filed for bankruptcy last year, forcing her to shut down 63 of her stores.
But the ever-optimistic designer, who has since been busy working on a sportswear collection and a reality series, clearly hasn't let the setback slow her down.

She said in a press release: 'I'm back!!! Doing my dress thing. Pretty and punk, sweet and sexy, always rock n' roll.'
While looks from her newest line include Betsey touches like peplum, animal prints and fun pops of bright color, they are significantly more affordable, with prices ranging from $99 to $249 a dress.
The designs are also more understated than her usual garb, making them more wearable to a larger variety of women.
'I'm back!!! Doing my dress thing. Pretty and punk, sweet and sexy, always rock n' roll'
And the fashion guru couldn't be more thrilled to bring her carefree style to the masses.
'It's exciting,' she told MailOnline. 'It's a commercial interpretation of what I do, but I could never be that commercial.'
One dress from the line comes in navy blue with white polka dots, featuring a flattering halter neck and a hint of red tulle peaking out from beneath a flouncy skirt.
Another frock is adorned in rainbow animal print, cap sleeves and a peplum waist.
And cute details like beaded necklines, heart-shaped busts and Peter Pan collars keep the looks fresh and on-trend.

But now, she says, her fashion can be enjoyed all around the world.
In the ad campaign for her new line, models sport the dresses while holding on to poodles in pink, purple and white.
'It's just Photoshop, dolls!' the ebullient designer assured her fans on her Facebook page.
The designer also told us that she is working on bringing exclusive items to her website - including T-shirts and other casual wear.
Ms Johnson, who frequently brings her family members onto the runway after her shows, said she's confident of her new line because her daughter Lulu - the mother of Layla and an aspiring fashion designer herself - is also a fan of the looks.

Entitled Betsey + Lulu, the Style Network series will follow the pair as they deal with the ups and downs of their close mother-daughter relationship.

Perfect Cosplay Wigs



Cosplayers are always looking for the best way to appear as the characters they are most interested in. If they are trying to look like Naruto, they will be getting the proper weapons and clothing, and doing something to make their hair approximate to that of this hero. For anyone that has seen Naruto they know that this is by far, not your normal hair preparation. If you were to grow your hair to match, sure you would be the star of your cosplay group, it would look a little unusual at the next meeting with your co-workers. Therefore you need to consider other ideas, and that is what cosplay wigs were designed for.

Not only that, these high quality wigs are going to more accurately represent the final example of the character that you are trying to portray. Most of the cosplay groups are going to re-enact their favorite scenes, and when it comes time for that do you really want to be wondering if the hairdo that you are sporting really represents the character you are trying to portray. There is really something to be said for the status increase you will feel when you are wearing a professionally prepared cosplay wig when you are with the other cosplayers.

There are a lot of subjects that are covered in the anime realm. You can find many characters that are of interest. The more outlandish a character the more likely someone is going to want to dress up as that character. The simple characters are just not so fun to portray. We suggest if you are going to be part of the cosplay society, that you might as well do it to the ultimate.
Therefore the best thing you can do is find supplies that will remake you into the image of your hero or villain. We thing that having a cosplay wig to add to your image of that favored character is something that can only make you a star among your fellows while being able to step away from that role later and have a normal life. Like the superheroes of old there are times you are going to want to not have to live up to your hero's image, sometimes it is good to be just Joe Normal.
When it is time to become your cosplay-favored character we suggest you get a wig to match that character, so you can step into that character totally. And when the event you dressed up for is over, it will be just as easy to step back out of character as well. Enjoy your Cosplay experience!
