Elections to Manchester City Council will be held on 3 May 2018.
 All 96 council seats covering 32 wards in Manchester are up for election following ward boundary changes.
 Manchester City Council submitted its boundary suggestions, with Councillor John Leech submitting a slightly amended version suggesting that Chorlton Park ward should be reverted to its original name of Barlow Moor ward in order to create a 'stronger sense of community'.
 The 2016 local elections saw the Labour Party retain overall control of the council, managing to hold all but one seat contested and won by former Manchester Withington MP, John Leech.
 Leech's win signified the first gain for any party in Manchester other than Labour for the first time in six years and provided the city with its first opposition for two years.

Biograph Girl was a phrase associated with two early-20th-century actresses, Florence Lawrence and Mary Pickford, who made black-and-white silent films with the Biograph Company.
 At that time, all studios refused to give actors on-screen film credit; they did not want them to gain public celebrity status and command higher salaries.
 This had already happened with stage actors, and the studios did not want to repeat the trend on film.
Starchitect is a portmanteau used to describe architects whose celebrity and critical acclaim have transformed them into idols of the architecture world and may even have given them some degree of fame amongst the general public.
 Celebrity status is generally associated with avant-gardist novelty.
 Developers around the world have proven eager to sign up "top talent" (i.e., starchitects) in hopes of convincing reluctant municipalities to approve large developments, of obtaining financing or of increasing the value of their buildings.
 A key characteristic is that the starchitecture is almost always "iconic" and highly visible within the site or context.
 As the status is dependent on current visibility in the media, fading media status implies that architects lose "starchitect" status—hence a list can be drawn up of former "starchitects".
Yas Taalat is a recording artist and song writer born in Sudbury now based in Toronto.
 He is the co-founder and lead singer of the popular gold selling status band Project Wyze and currently the successful hip hop group Dead Celebrity Status.

 Yas and band partner Bobby made a name for themselves across North America as gifted lyricists and ferocious battle emcee's.
 Though born in Canada his parents hail from Morocco.
 He is Muslim and talks about the pains and struggles of being one in this post 9/11 world on the Dead Celebrity Status track "In This Day and Age" featuring Jeordie White aka Twiggy Ramirez from Marilyn Manson and Bif Naked.
Celebrity refers to the fame and public attention accorded by the mass media to individuals or groups or, occasionally, animals, but is usually applied to the persons or groups of people (celebrity couples, families, etc.) themselves who receive such a status of fame and attention.
 Celebrity status is often associated with wealth (commonly referred to as "fame and fortune"), while fame often provides opportunities to earn revenue.
