Just now Crowley, 45, is the Gershwin of designers. With his 1987 Broadway debut, Les Liaisons Dangereuses (all those elegant, suffocating drapes!), and 1994's Tony-winning Carousel (a small town in idyllic greens and blues), the kid from Cork, Ireland, showed the breadth and iridescence of his gifts. This year he had three new Broadway shows: Twelfth Night, the Oscar Wilde bio-play The Judas Kiss and Paul Simon's The Capeman. Amid the rubble of Capeman's reviews, Crowley earned praise for his expressionistic perspectives of uptown tenements and upstate jails. He is now at work on four...
...spring of 1998 Flip/Interscope did have a pay-for-play contract with radio station KUFO of Portland, Ore., the arrangement didn't really have any long-term impact on Limp Bizkit's success. Before there was significant airplay from any radio station, including KUFO, Limp Bizkit's debut record, upon release in July 1997, landed on the Billboard Heatseekers Chart and stayed there for more than 40 weeks; it will be gold by September.

He was an altar boy who busted loose, discovering girls and guitars at Pearl River Junior College in Poplarville, Miss., playing acid rock in the clubs of New Orleans, moving to Nashville and working for Billboard, and failing in his first bid for folkie stardom (his debut album stiffed, and his second was put on the shelf). In 1971 he fled Tennessee and a bad first marriage and wound up at the end of the road in Key West, then a lazy outpost for shrimpers, smugglers, gays and cosmic cowboys like singer Jerry Jeff Walker and novelist Tom McGuane...
...curious, almost desperate choice. "They needed a director for hire," says an agent whose client was also approached for a Bond gig. "With these films, it's not about creating art; it's about making the release date." And perhaps appropriately supporting an asset. Bond 19 is scheduled to debut...
