Plot [ edit ] In 1983, Mason Storm, a Los Angeles police detective, investigates a mob meeting that takes place by a pier. He records a shadowy figure who assures the mob they can rely on his political support. Storm is spotted, but escapes. Unaware that he is monitored by corrupt cops, Mason informs his partner, Becker and his friend Lt. O’Malley that he has evidence of corruption. While he goes shopping, a store is robbed, and one of the robbers shoots the clerk. Mason stops them and goes home, intent on celebrating with his wife, Felicia. Mason hides the videotape in his house. When he goes upstairs, a hit squad composed of corrupt policemen, including Jack Axel and Max Quentero, break in and proceed to murder Mason's wife and shoot him. Mason's young son, Sonny, hides until the danger passes then he runs away. The corrupt policemen frame Mason, making it look like a murder-suicide. At the same time, assassins kill Storm's partner. At the hospital, Mason is first pronounced dead, but is then discovered to be alive, although unconscious. To prevent the assassins from finishing the job, Lieutenant O'Malley tells the medics to keep Mason's status a secret. Seven years later, Mason wakes from his coma. Andy, one of his nurses, makes a phone call, which is intercepted by corrupt police officers. They send Axel to finish the job and kill the nurses to whom Mason might have talked. Mason realizes that he is still in danger, but his muscles have atrophied to where he can barely use his arms. He staggers to an elevator, and when Andy sees her co-workers killed, she helps Mason escape.

Needing time to recuperate, Andy brings Mason to a friend's house, where Mason uses his knowledge of acupuncture , moxibustion and other meditation techniques to recover his strength. While training, Mason hears a commercial for Senator Vernon Trent and recognizes the voice from the pier. Mason contacts O'Malley, who supplies him with weapons and tells him that his son is still alive—O'Malley adopted Sonny and sent him to a private school so that he would be out of danger. After O'Malley leaves, Senator Trent's men find the house and attempt to kill Andy and Mason, but they both manage to escape. Posing as a real estate agent, Mason recovers the hidden videotape from his old house. He meets O'Malley in a train station, where O'Malley brings Mason's now-teenage son. They do not see each other, because as Mason arrives, O'Malley is already dead, having been shot by Max after giving the tape to Sonny for safe-keeping while having provided a distraction for him to get away. When Mason arrives, he sees Sonny running away from Quentero and Nolan. Mason catches up with the men, subdues Nolan by breaking his leg and throwing him in a trash bin. He then reaches Quentero before Sonny is grabbed, and the two fight one another. Mason beats up Quentero and recognizes him as one of the men who took part in the assault on Mason's home and the murder of his wife. Mason then proceeds to snap Quentero's neck, killing him and saving his son. Mason then goes after Senator Trent.

At the Senator's mansion, Mason sneaks in and manages to eliminate the Senator's men one by one. Mason fights with Axel in the billiard room and avenges Felicia by jamming a piece of a pool cue into Axel's neck, killing him. Next, Mason leaves a death taunt to Capt. Hulland, another corrupt cop who betrayed Storm to Trent, and stalks Hulland through the house before cornering the corrupt captain near the fireplace. Mason then strangles Hulland with his necktie and breaks his neck, killing him. Mason finally confronts Senator Trent and holds him at gunpoint when the police storm the mansion. However, they reveal that they had already seen the film and knew that Mason was set up. Trent is arrested, and Mason is reunited with Andy and his son and walks off as the image from the videotape is played on the news, showing Trent coming out of the shadows briefly, wondering who is taping him. Original ending [ edit ] Originally, the movie ended with Mason actually killing Trent, and some time later Mason, Andy and Sonny attending a funeral for O'Malley. The theatrical trailer shows parts of the original ending.

The band's fortunes changed in 1997 with the release of their White on Blonde album which entered the UK Albums Chart at number one and became their biggest seller. To date it has been certified six-times platinum in the UK. [1] Follow up album, The Hush (1999) was also successful, debuting at number one on the UK album charts and certified triple platinum. The band's Greatest Hits album, released in 2000, was another big seller, again debuting at number one and also being certified six-times platinum. Texas would go on to release a further two studio albums, Careful What You Wish For in 2003, and Red Book in 2005, both of which were certified gold in the UK.

It reached No. 8 on the UK Singles Charts [4] and No. 77 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart, as well as Top 40 positions in various countries worldwide. The band released their debut album, Southside , in March 1989, which charted at No. 3 on the UK Album Charts and was certified Gold by the BPI .

Main article: Mothers Heaven The band's second album, Mothers Heaven , was released in September 1991. It was preceded by the single " Why Believe in You ", but this failed to reach the UK Top 40 stalling at No. 66 on the UK Singles Charts. This did not bode well for the album, which itself peaked at No. 32 in the UK. A second single, " In My Heart ", fared worse and became Texas's lowest charting single in the UK, reaching No. 74, making it their fifth single in a row to failed to break the Top 40. A third single from the album, " Alone with You ", was released in January 1992 and reached No. 32, giving them their second Top 40 entry. Ironically, immediately following the disappointing performance of the album and its singles, Texas released a new cover version of the Al Green classic " Tired of Being Alone " in April 1992. The single, which was not included on the album, was more successful and returned the band to the UK Top 20, peaking at No. 19. 1993–94: Ricks Road [ edit ] Main article: Ricks Road Texas released their third album, Ricks Road in November 1993. It was preceded by two more Top 40 singles, " So Called Friend " (UK #30) and " You Owe It All to Me " (UK #39). The album peaked at No. 18 on the UK Album Charts. The music video for "You Owe It All to Me" was directed by Dani Jacobs , and was filmed in Arizona and features Spiteri and McErlaine filmed in the style of a road movie with the pair encountering another version of themselves along the way. A third single from the album, " So In Love With You ", reached No. 28 in the UK in February 1994.

A two-time Grammy Award winner, LL Cool J is known for such hip hop hits as " Going Back to Cali ", " I'm Bad ", " The Boomin' System ", " Rock the Bells " and " Mama Said Knock You Out ", as well as R&B hits such as " Doin' It ", " I Need Love ", " All I Have ", " Around the Way Girl " and " Hey Lover ".

[7] [8] [9] According to the Chicago Tribune , "[as] a kid growing up middle class and Catholic in Queens, life for LL was heart-breaking. His father shot his mother and grandfather, nearly killing them both. When 4-year-old LL found them, blood was everywhere." [10] In an episode of Finding Your Roots , LL learned his mother was adopted by Eugene Griffith and Ellen Hightower. The series' genetic genealogist CeCe Moore identified LL's biological grandparents as Ethel Mae Jolly and Nathaniel Christy Lewis through analysis of his DNA. LL's biological great-uncle was hall of fame boxer John Henry Lewis . [6]

He began rapping at the age of 9, influenced by the hip-hop group The Treacherous Three . In March 1984, sixteen-year-old Smith was creating demo tapes in his grandparents' home. [11] His grandfather, a jazz saxophonist, bought him $2,000 worth of equipment, including two turntables , an audio mixer and an amplifier . [12] Smith stated that "By the time I got that equipment, I was already a rapper. In this neighborhood, the kids grow up in rap. It's like speaking Spanish if you grow up in an all-Spanish house. I got into it when I was about 9, and since then all I wanted was to make a record and hear it on the radio." [12] This was at the same time that NYU student Rick Rubin and promoter - manager Russell Simmons founded the then-independent Def Jam label. By using the mixer he had received from his grandfather, Smith produced and mixed his own demos and sent them to various record companies throughout New York City, including Def Jam. [12] In the VH1 documentary Planet Rock: The Story of Hip Hop and the Crack Generation , LL Cool J revealed that he initially wanted to call himself J-Ski but did not want to associate his stage name with the cocaine culture (the rappers who use "Ski" or "Blow" as part of their stage name, e.g., Kurtis Blow and Joeski Love, were associated with the rise of the cocaine culture, as depicted in the 1983 remake of Scarface ).

Under his new stage name , LL Cool J (an abbreviation for L adies L ove Cool J ames), [13] Smith was signed by Def Jam, which led to the release of his first official record, the 12-inch single " I Need a Beat " (1984). [11] The single was a hard-hitting, streetwise b-boy song with spare beats and ballistic rhymes. [11] Smith later discussed his search for a label, stating "I sent my demo to many different companies, but it was Def Jam where I found my home." [14] That same year, Smith made his professional debut concert performance at Manhattan Center High School. In a later interview, LL Cool J recalled the experience, stating "They pushed the lunch room tables together and me and my DJ, Cut Creator, started playing. ... As soon as it was over there were girls screaming and asking for autographs. Right then and there I said 'This is what I want to do'." [15] LL's debut single sold over 100,000 copies and helped establish both Def Jam as a label and Smith as a rapper. The commercial success of "I Need a Beat", along with the Beastie Boys ' single " Rock Hard " (1984), helped lead Def Jam to a distribution deal with Columbia Records the following year. [16] LL Cool J married Simone Smith in 1995; they have four children - Najee, Italia, Samaria and Nina. [17] [7] He eventually reconciled with his father. [ when? ] [10] [8]

Musical career [ edit ] 1985–1987: Radio [ edit ] Radio was released to critical acclaim, both for production innovation and LL's powerful rap. [18] Released November 18, 1985, on Def Jam Recordings in the United States, [19] Radio earned a significant amount of commercial success and sales for a hip hop record at the time. Shortly after its release, the album sold over 500,000 copies in its first five months, eventually selling over 1 million copies by 1988, according to the Recording Industry Association of America . [20] [21] Radio peaked at number 6 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart and at number 46 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. [22] It entered the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart on December 28, 1985, and remained there for forty-seven weeks, while also entering the Pop Albums chart on January 11, 1986, [22] remaining on that chart for thirty-eight weeks. [22] By 1989, the album had earned platinum status from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), with sales exceeding one million copies; it had previously earned a gold certification in the United States on April 14, 1986. [21] " I Can't Live Without My Radio " and " Rock the Bells " were singles that helped the album go platinum. It eventually reached 1,500,000 in US sales. [23] With the breakthrough success of his hit single "I Need a Beat" and the Radio LP, LL Cool J became an early hip-hop acts to achieve mainstream success along with Kurtis Blow and Run-D.M.C. . Gigs at larger venues were offered to LL as he would join the 1986-'87 Raising Hell tour , opening for Run-D.M.C. and the Beastie Boys. [24] Another milestone of LL's popularity was his appearance on American Bandstand as the first hip hop act on the show, [25] as well as an appearance on Diana Ross ' 1987 television special, Red Hot Rhythm & Blues .

The album's success also helped in contributing to Rick Rubin's credibility and repertoire as a record producer. Radio , along with Raising Hell (1986) and Licensed to Ill (1986), would form a trilogy of New York City-based, Rubin-helmed albums that helped to diversify hip-hop. [26] [27] Rubin's production credit on the back cover reads "REDUCED BY RICK RUBIN", referring to his minimalist production style, which gave the album its stripped-down and gritty sound. This style would serve as one of Rubin's production trademarks and would have a great impact on future hip-hop productions. [28] Rubin's early hip hop production work, before his exit from Def Jam to Los Angeles, helped solidify his legacy as a hip hop pioneer and establish his reputation in the music industry. [28] 1987–1993: Breakthrough and success [ edit ] LL Cool J's second album was 1987's Bigger and Deffer , which was produced by DJ Pooh and the L.A. Posse . [29] This stands as one of his biggest-selling career albums, having sold in excess of two million copies in the United States alone. [30] It spent 11 weeks at #1 on Billboard ' s R&B albums chart. It also reached #3 on the Billboard ' s Pop albums chart. The album featured the singles " I'm Bad ", the revolutionary " I Need Love " - LL's first #1 R&B and Top 40 hit, " Bristol Hotel ", and " Go Cut Creator Go ".

While Bigger and Deffer , which was a big success, was produced by the L.A. Posse (at the time consisting of Dwayne Simon, Darryl Pierce and, according to himself the most important for crafting the sound of the LP, Bobby "Bobcat" Ervin), Dwayne Simon was the only one left willing to work on producing LL Cool J's third album Walking with a Panther . [31] Released in 1989, the album was a commercial success, with several charting singles (" Going Back to Cali ," "I'm That Type of Guy," "Jingling Baby," "Big Ole Butt," and "One Shot at Love"). Despite commercial appeal, thealbum however was often criticized by the hip-hop community as being too commercial and materialistic, and for focusing too much on love ballads. [32] As a result, his audience base began to decline due to the album's bold commercial and pop aspirations. [33] According to Billboard , the album peaked at #6 on the Billboard 200 and was LL Cool J's second #1 R&B Album where it spent four weeks. In 1990, LL released Mama Said Knock You Out , his fourth studio album. The Marley Marl produced album received critical acclaim and eventually went double Platinum selling over two million copies according to the RIAA . Mama Said Knock You Out marked a turning point in LL Cool J's career, as he proved to critics his ability to stay relevant and hard-edged despite the misgivings of his previous album. [33] LL won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance in 1992 for the title track. The album's immense success propelled Mama Said Knock You Out to be LL's top selling album of his career (as of 2002) and solidified his status as a hip-hop icon. [33]

1993–2005: Continued success and career prominence [ edit ] LL Cool J in 1999 After acting in The Hard Way and Toys , LL Cool J released 14 Shots to the Dome . The album had four singles (" How I'm Comin' ", " Back Seat (of My Jeep) ", the strangely titled " Pink Cookies in a Plastic Bag Getting Crushed by Buildings ”, “ Stand By Your Man ") and guest-featured labelmates Lords of the Underground on "NFA-No Frontin' Allowed". The album went gold. LL Cool J starred in In the House , an NBC sitcom, before releasing Mr. Smith (1995), which went on to sell over two million copies.

[ citation needed ] The song also earned him a Grammy Award . Yet another single from the album, "I Shot Ya Remix", included vocal work by Foxy Brown . In 1996, Def Jam released this "greatest hits" package, offering a good summary of Cool J's career, from the relentless minimalism of early hits such as "Rock the Bells" to the smooth-talking braggadocio that followed. Classic albums including Bigger and Deffer and Mama Said Knock You Out are well represented here. In December 1996 his cover of the Rufus and Chaka Khan song " Ain't Nobody " was included on the Beavis and Butt-Head Do America soundtrack & released as a single. [34]

[73] LL Cool J has written four books, including 1998's I Make My Own Rules , an autobiography cowritten with Karen Hunter . His second book was the children-oriented book called And The Winner Is... published in 2002. In 2006, LL Cool J and his personal trainer, Dave "Scooter" Honig, wrote a fitness book titled The Platinum Workout . His fourth book, LL Cool J (Hip-Hop Stars) was cowritten in 2007 with hip-hop historian Dustin Shekell and Public Enemy's Chuck D. LL Cool J started his own businesses in the music industry such as the music label in 1993 called P.O.G. (Power Of God) and formed the company Rock The Bells to produce music. With the Rock The Bells label, he had artists such as Amyth , [74] Smokeman, Natice, Chantel Jones and Simone Starks. Rock the Bells Records was also responsible for the Deep Blue Sea soundtrack for the 1999 movie of the same name. Rufus "Scola" Waller was also signed to the label, but was released when the label folded. [75]

LL Cool J founded and launched Boomdizzle.com, a record label / social networking site launched in September 2008. The website accepts music uploads from aspiring artists, primarily from the hip-hop genre, and the site's users rate songs through contests, voting, and other community events. [76] In March 2015 LL Cool J also appeared in an introduction to Wrestlemania 31 . [77] Political involvement [ edit ] In 2002, LL Cool J supported George Pataki 's bid for a third term as Governor of New York. [78] In 2003, LL Cool J spoke in support of P2P file-sharing at a U.S. Senate Committee hearing, stating that he wished "music could be downloaded legitimately." [79] He also voiced his support for New York State Senator Malcolm Smith , a Democrat, during an appearance on the senator's local television show; [80] he worked with Smith in putting on the annual Jump and Ball Tournament in the rapper's childhood neighborhood of St. Albans, Queens. [81] In a February 10, 2012 televised interview with CNN host Piers Morgan , LL Cool J expressed sympathy for President Obama and ascribed negative impressions of his leadership to Republican obstruction designed to "make it look like you have a coordination problem." He was quick to add that no one "should assume that I'm a Democrat either. I'm an Independent, you know?" [82] In LL Cool J's Platinum 360 Diet and Lifestyle , he included Barack Obama in a list of people he admired, stating that Obama had "accomplished what people thought was impossible." [83]

Legacy [ edit ] With the breakthrough success of his hit single "I Need a Beat" and the Radio LP, LL Cool J became an early hip-hop acts to achieve mainstream success along with Kurtis Blow and Run-D.M.C. . Gigs at larger venues were offered to LL as he would join the 1986-'87 Raising Hell tour , opening for Run-D.M.C. and the Beastie Boys. [24] Another milestone of LL's popularity was his appearance on American Bandstand as the first hip hop act on the show. [25] The album's success also helped in contributing to Rick Rubin's credibility and repertoire as a record producer. Radio , along with Raising Hell (1986) and Licensed to Ill (1986), would form a trilogy of New York City-based, Rubin-helmed albums that helped to diversify hip-hop. [26] [27] Rubin's production credit on the back cover reads "REDUCED BY RICK RUBIN", referring to his minimalist production style, which gave the album its stripped-down and gritty sound. This style would serve as one of Rubin's production trademarks and would have a great impact on future hip-hop productions. [28] Rubin's early hip hop production work, before his exit from Def Jam to Los Angeles, helped solidify his legacy as a hip hop pioneer and establish his reputation in the music industry. [28] Radio ' s release coincided with the growing new school scene and subculture , which also marked the beginning of hip-hop's "golden age" and the replacement of old school hip hop . [84] This period of hip hop was marked by the end of the disco rap stylings of old school, which had flourished prior to the mid-1980s, and the rise of a new style featuring " ghetto blasters ". Radio served as one of the earliest records, along with Run-D.M.C.'s debut album , to combine the vocal approach of hip hop and rapping with the musical arrangements and riffing sound of rock music , pioneering the rap rock hybrid sound. [85]

The emerging new school scene was initially characterized by drum machine -led minimalism, often tinged with elements of rock, as well as boasts about rapping delivered in an aggressive, self-assertive style. In image as in song, the artists projected a tough, cool, street b-boy attitude. These elements contrasted sharply with the 1970s P-Funk and disco -influenced outfits, live bands, synthesizers and party rhymes of acts prevalent in 1984, rendering them old school. [86] In contrast to the lengthy, jam -like form predominant throughout early hip hop (" King Tim III ", " Rapper's Delight ", " The Breaks "), new school artists tended to compose shorter songs that would be more accessible and had potential for radio play , and conceive more cohesive LPs than their old school counterparts; the style typified by LL Cool J's Radio . [87] A leading example of the new school sound is the song "I Can't Live Without My Radio", a loud, defiant declaration of public loyalty to his boom box, which The New York Times described as "quintessential rap in its directness, immediacy and assertion of self". [12] It was featured in the film Krush Groove (1985), which was based on the rise of Def Jam and new school acts such as Run-D.M.C. and the Fat Boys . [88] The energy and hardcore delivery and musical style of rapping featured on Radio , as well as other new school recordings by artists such as Run-D.M.C., Schooly D , T La Rock and Steady B , proved to be influential to hip hop acts of the "golden age" such as Boogie Down Productions and Public Enemy . [89] The decline of the old school form of hip hop also led to the closing of Sugar Hill Records , one of the labels that helped contribute to early hip-hop and that, coincidently, rejected LL's demo tape. [90] As the album served as an example of an expansion of hip hop music's artistic possibilities, its commercial success and distinct sound soon led to an increase in multi-racial audiences and listeners, adding to the legacy of the album and hip hop as well.

Mehndi - Wikipedia CentralNotice Mehndi From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to navigation Jump to search For other uses, see Mehndi (disambiguation) . Mehndi applied on both hands; back view. Mehndi applied on the back of both hands. Play media Video of mehndi application. Mehndi is a form of body art originating from the Arabian peninsula , in which decorative designs are created on a person's body, using a paste, created from the powdered dry leaves of the henna plant ( Lawsonia inermis ). Dating back to ancient India , mehndi is still a popular form of body art among the women of the Indian subcontinent, Africa and the Middle East . Mehndi is derived from the Sanskrit word mendhikā . [1] The use of mehndi and turmeric is described in the earliest Hindu Vedic ritual books. It was originally used for only women's palms and sometimes for men, but as time progressed, it was more common for men to wear it. Staining oneself with turmeric paste, as well as mehndi, are Vedic customs, intended to be a symbolic representation of the outer and the inner sun. Vedic customs are centered on the idea of "awakening the inner light". Traditional Indian designs are representations of the sun on the palm, which, in this context, is intended to represent the hands and feet. Mehendi has a great significance in performing classical dance like Bharatnatyam .

There are many variations and designs. Women usually apply mehndi designs to their hands and feet, though some, including cancer patients and women with alopecia occasionally decorate their scalps. [2] The standard color of henna is brown, but other design colors such as white, red, black and gold are sometimes employed. [2] Practiced mainly in the Indian subcontinent , mehndi is the application of a temporary form of skin decoration , popularized in the West by Indian cinema and the entertainment industry, the people in Nepal , Bangladesh and the Maldives also use mehndi. Mehndi decorations became fashionable in the West in the late 1990s, where they are called henna tattoos . Mehndi in Indian tradition is typically applied during special Hindu weddings and Hindu festivals like Karva Chauth , Vat Purnima , Diwali , Bhai Dooj and Teej . Muslims in the Indian subcontinent also apply Mehndi during festivals such as Eid-ul-Fitr and Eid-ul-Adha . In Hindu festivals, many women have Henna applied to their hands and feet and sometimes on the back of their shoulders too, as men have it applied on their arms, legs, back, and chest. For women, it is usually drawn on the palm, back of the hand and on feet, where the design will be clearest due to contrast with the lighter skin on these surfaces, which naturally contain less of the pigment melanin .

Alta, Alata, or Mahur is a red dye used similarly to henna to paint the feet of the brides in South Asia , for instance in the Bengal region where it is done. Likely due to the desire for a "tattoo-black" appearance, some people add the synthetic dye p-Phenylenediamine (PPD) to henna to give it a black colour. PPD may cause severe allergic reactions and was voted Allergen of the Year in 2006 by the American Contact Dermatitis Society.

It is typically applied during weddings - for Muslim and Hindu brides. In Rajasthan , the grooms are given designs that are often as elaborate as those for brides. In Assam , apart from marriage, it is broadly used by unmarried women during Rongali bihu . Muslims in Afghanistan also started to use it as an indication of coming of age. In the Middle East and Africa, it is common for women to apply henna to their fingernails and toenails and to their hands. Process [ edit ]

Henna paste is usually applied to the skin using a plastic cone, a paintbrush or a stick. After about 15–20 minutes, the mud will dry and begin to crack, and during this time, a mixture of lemon juice and white sugar can be applied over the henna design to remoisten the henna mud so that the henna will stain darker. The painted area is then wrapped with tissue, plastic, or medical tape to lock in body heat, creating a more intense colour on the skin. The wrap (not a traditional method), is worn for two to six hours, or sometimes overnight, and then removed. When first removed, the henna design is pale to dark orange in colour and gradually darkens through oxidation, over the course of 24 to 72 hours. The final color is reddish brown and can last anywhere from one to three weeks depending on the quality and type of henna paste applied, as well as where it was applied on the body (thicker skin stains darker and longer than thin skin). Moisturizing with natural oils, such as olive, sesame seed, or coconut, will also help extend the lifetime of the stain. Skin exfoliation causes the henna tattoo to fade. In weddings [ edit ] Traditional weddings in South Asian Muslims can often be long, ritualistic, and elaborate affairs with many pre-wedding, wedding and post wedding ceremonies of Muslims. Different countries and regions of a country celebrate the ceremonies in different ways according to their own marriage customs, rituals, and culture. A henna party is a tradition held before a wedding in many Middle Eastern and North African cultures. Henna parties were often held in the house that the bride was going to live in, and the guests included girls and women from the bride and groom's side of the family. The bride and all of her guests wore embroidered dresses called "bindalli". In addition to this, the bride also wore a red veil that covered her face.

According to Hindu tradition, the ceremony is mainly held at the bride's house or at a banquet hall on the eve of the marriage ceremony or few days before the marriage. Generally, the bride and groom attend the event together and on the occasion, a professional mehndi artist or a relative applies mehndi to the bride's hands and feet. The designs are very intricate. Often hidden within the mehndi pattern, the name or initials of the groom are applied. The event generally has a celebratory festival feel to it with the women dancing and singing traditional songs and the girls wearing vivid colors such as hot pink and yellow, often if the bride to be wishes to tease her future groom she will make him wear purple. The groom usually wears jutti instead of western footwear. In Pakistan , the Mehndi ceremony is referred to Rasm-e-Heena and is often one of the most important pre-wedding ceremonies, which is celebrated by the bride's family. In Bangladesh , the Mehndi ceremony has traditionally been separated into two events; one organized by the bride's family and one, by the groom's family. Mehndi ceremonies take place outside the Indian subcontinent amongst the South Asian community and places like Birmingham in the UK are such known hotspots for lavish Mehndi celebrations. Example of a wedding tradition [ edit ]

The henna, a dye produced from a henna plant, would be delivered by the groom's relatives on a silver tray containing two burning candles. [3] [4] Before the application of the henna, the guests would throw coins over the bride's head as a symbol of fertility. Then, the bride's soon to be mother-in-law would then bring out a piece of silk cloth as a gift to the bride. The bride would then walk along the unrolled piece of silk cloth in the direction of her future mother-in-law and kiss her hand. Once this is done, fruits, nuts, and pastries would be brought out and songs would be sung in hopes of making the bride cry. This was done because it was thought that the bride's crying would bring good luck. The bride would then sit on a cushion while her mother-in-law placed a gold coin in her hand as another sign of good luck. Once the bride was given the gold coin, the henna would be applied. The person who applied the henna was always someone who was already known to be happily married; that person would apply the henna onto the bride's palms, fingers, and toes. The henna was made from died henna leaves, and the process of application took a long time. For this reason, it was suggested that it be applied between thirty-two and forty-eight hours before the wedding so that it may have enough time to stain the skin. In addition to the bride, all unmarried persons at the henna party would also apply the henna to their hands, believing that it would allow them to be married soon as well.
