Martha Reeves, one of many artists who helped to create the Motown sound, put her handprints and signature in cement for the Detroit Historical Society’s Detroit Legends Plaza at the Emagine Theatre in Royal Oak today. Reeves told reporters it was fun to stick her hands in the cement, a first for the 70-year-old songstress. "This felt great," Reeves said. "I used to make mud pies and I'd make my brother eat them. But this was more fun than mud." Reeves, whose hit songs with the Vandellas include Heat Wave and Dancing in the Streets, will be back at the Emagine tonight for a screening of the documentary Re:Generation Music Project, in which she is featured.

Local celebrities and movie stars walked the red carpet along with author Mitch Albom for a sneak preview of Albom's Have a Little Faith Wednesday night at the Emagine theater in Royal Oak. Attending the premiere were Lawrence Fishburne, Martin Landau, Bradley Whitford, Matthew Stafford, Carman Harlan, Bernie Smilovitz, game show host Chuck Woolery and others. Albom, who lives in Farmington Hills, introduced the cast members to the crowd, calling them gracious. “The fact is they didn’t need to do this. This is not contractual. This is not part of their obligations," Albom said. "They don’t get paid anything for it. They did it because I asked them to come help us do something important in Detroit. And everyone of them said yes.” Proceeds …
