John Travolta Targeted in $20 Million Extortion Plot?

Sometimes we just want to hand in our membership card to the human race. John Travolta and Kelly Preston are reportedly at the center of an extortion plot involving their 16-year-old son Jett, who died of a seizure disorder on Jan. 2 while the family was on vacation in the Bahamas.
According to TMZ.com, the purported plan concerns the circumstances of Jett's death, although details are few, other than there's apparently been a demand of $20 million.

TMZ also believes there's no truth to a London Daily Mail report that claims the alleged scheme is over a cell phone photo supposedly taken when Jett was being rushed by ambulance to the hospital (the paper said that in exchange for "millions of dollars," the alleged extortionists wouldn't sell the image to the highest bidder).
On Friday, Bahamian police detained a lawmaker and a paramedic in connection with the apparent extortion attempt, reports the Associated Press.
One of those detained was ambulance driver Tarino Lightbourne, who had previously talked to the press about the efforts made to revive Jett on the way to the hospital, where he was pronounced dead.
"John went behind the hospital curtain, tears in his eyes. I could see the sorrow. I could see the love in his eyes for his son," he indiscreetly told the London Sun. "When he was hugging his son he said, 'I'm sorry Jett.' I think he meant, 'I'm sorry Jett, I did all I could do.'"
He wasn't the only one to talk to the media. The head of the EMT crew recalled how John and Kelly rode in the ambulance and the actor held his son's hand, telling him, "Come on, Jett."
The paramedic also said that, despite his grief, Travolta remained characteristically gracious, thanking him for his help and telling him, "Good job."
Lightbourne was reportedly picked up after a police alert was issued saying he was wanted for "attempted extortion" and was "considered dangerous and should be approached with caution."
"Regrettably, in a time of such terrible grief there are often a few individuals who attempt to make false claims in hopes of making millions of dollars," Travolta's attorneys, Michael Ossi and Howard Butler, said in a statement earlier this week. "We will never let that happen."
The Travoltas, who are also parents to 8-year-old Ella Bleu, held a private memorial service for their son on Jan. 8 at their Ocala, Fla., estate, where they reportedly remain in seclusion.
"Jett was the most wonderful son that two parents could ever ask for and lit up the lives of everyone he encountered," John and Kelly said in a statement shortly after Jett's passing. "We are heartbroken that our time with him was so brief. We will cherish the time we had with him for the rest of our lives."

Britney Spears - "Now She is a Writer"!!!

On Tuesday, the Daily Mirror reported that Britney Spears was about to sign a deal to write her memoirs. The news has spread like wildfire, but it may only be a rumor. If the original report is true, Britney is poised to get $14 million for a three-book deal with an unnamed publisher.
These days, with layoffs and belt-tightening across the industry, $14 million would be an awful lot for a publisher to offer any author. The biggest nonfiction book deal to date was announced in the summer of 2001: Former President Clinton would write a two-book memoir for Knopf for $10 million. Is Britney's autobiography really worth that much more than a two-term U.S. president's?
And although it's easy enough to imagine Clinton sitting down to write the 1,000-plus-page "My Life," have you ever seen Britney doing anything more with a pen than sign autographs? Britney has been many things: a beloved pop singer, a great dancer, a tabloid train wreck, a beautiful girl, a parent, a redeemed celebrity. But can you picture her as an author?
Who would read a book written by Britney? Who would read three of them?

Richard Wright- “World is missing him”.

Richard William "Rick" Wright (28 July 1943 – 15 September 2008) was an English pianist, keyboardist, vocalist and songwriter, best known for his career with Pink Floyd.Wright's richly textured keyboard layers were a vital ingredient and a distinctive characteristic of Pink Floyd's sound. Wright frequently sang background and occasionally lead vocals onstage and in the studio with Pink Floyd (most notably on the songs "Time", "Echoes", and on the Syd Barrett composition "Astronomy Domine").
Though not as prolific a songwriter as his bandmates Roger Waters and David Gilmour, he wrote significant parts of the music for classic albums such as Meddle, The Dark Side of the Moon and Wish You Were Here, as well as for Pink Floyd's final s tudio album The Division Bell.

Richard Wright didn't contribute many songs to the band's catalog, but "The Great Gig in the Sky" is a classic from Dark Side of the Moon. His keyboards certainly helped define the band's delicate prog-rock sound. A founding Floyd member, Wright was fired by Roger Waters during the recording of The Wall, then rehired as a session musician for the tour. Wright sat out 1983's The Final Cut, but remained an auxiliary member until 1988. From there, Floyd became more like a happy family, with all the members reuniting for the Live 8 benefit concert in 2005. Wright also toured with David Gilmour in 2006. Notorious acid casualty Syd Barrett died that same year, which is good—it would have been embarrassing if Wright had been the first to go.

Beyonce is Proud To Be An American

After performing during the inaugural celebration in Washington D.C., Beyonce keeps warm in a fuzzy sweater as she arrives back home in Los Angeles via LAX airport on Friday (January 23).
“I can’t even describe to you how I felt,” the 27-year-old singer told Good Morning America right after her performance. “I’m actually right now fighting back tears because it’s just so emotional. I’m just so proud of my country. There are just certain people in the world that God touches, and this man was born for this. And he was born to lead us, and I just feel so inspired and so proud.”

ABBA women dismiss rumors of fights!!!

The two women members of 1970s hit group ABBA have rejected long-standing rumors that they are bitter enemies.
In a rare joint interview published Friday, Agnetha Faltskog, 58, and Anni-Frid Lyngstad, 63, took a chance to set the record straight.
"A lot has been written about how Agnetha and I fought and quarreled with each other. There is absolutely no truth in that," Lyngstad was quoted as saying by tabloid Aftonbladet. "Of course we competed, but to good effect."
Lyngstad and Faltskog formed ABBA together with male members Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus.
The band has sold more than 370 million records and is famous for hits like "Waterloo," "Dancing Queen" and "Money, Money, Money."
After ABBA split in 1982, rumors of fights between Lyngstad and Faltskog swirled in articles and books about the band.
"No, we didn't fight. But we have to live (through) a whole lot of such misinterpretations," Faltskog said.
The two women came together Thursday to accept Aftonbladet's lifetime achievement award.
The four former ABBA members are rarely seen together in public, but were reunited in 2008 for the Swedish premiere of "Mamma Mia!" a film based on their hits.

Akon claims he doesn't know his true age

Even though Akon has a birth certificate, he says his age is still a mystery — and he'd rather keep it that way. "All it's going to do is depress me," he told The Associated Press in a recent interview. "I don't want to know I'm getting older. Then I'll start to think about getting checkups and insurance. I don't want that."
Numerous reports have put his age between 25 to 35 years old. In 2006, he gave his age as 25. But now, he claims his birth certificate shows he was born on April 16, 1977, which would make him 31.
Some have accused Akon of trying to push back his age. But the singer, who was born in the United States but spent his early life in Senegal, where his family is from, says he never knew it.
"In Africa ... age is not important over there. They don't care. People only focus on it here (America) and in Europe."
Akon says when people ask, he just gives him a figure that comes to mind.
"I feel like I'm 21 right now," he says. "And I'll be 21 for the next 10 years."
Akon went multiplatinum with his 2006 CD "Konvicted," which included hits such as "Smack That" with Eminem and "Don't Matter." His most recent album, "Freedom," was released in December.

Cindy Crawford Is Teaching Healthy Eating Habits To Her Kids

Cindy Crawford was spotted shopping with daughter, Kaya, on Monday. It must be amazing having your mom as a supermodel and knowing just what to shop for.
Recently Cindy said that she is trying to teach her kids healthy eating habits…
“I do want my kids to see their mom eating normally. If we go for ice cream I might get the tiny size but I’ll eat it. I don’t want my daughter to think she can’t eat ice cream.”
I think that’s a great idea. The way that they grow up seeing their body is the way they will always see it. I think you can eat anything you want…as long as it’s in moderation.

Britney Spears To Release Autobiography?

Britney Spears is planning to tell all about her colorful life. The singer is reportedly set to sign a $14 million publishing deal.
The 27-year-old first stepped into the spotlight on "The New Mickey Mouse Club" in 1992, before launching a solo career and becoming one of the most famous singers on the planet.
And now she is close to detailing her rise to stardom and recent troubles after landing a multi-million-dollar book deal to write her memoirs, according to the Daily Mirror.
A source tells the newspaper, "There have been numerous unofficial autobiographies about Britney, but she's never agreed to pen her own tome -- until now.
"And some of the stories she's got are absolute dynamite. She's kept diaries, so there's nothing she'll leave out unless she wants to. If the deal goes ahead she will write three and five books throughout the next decade -- it's one of the most lucrative book deals in showbiz history."

Madonna @ 50+

The iconic singer celebrates a huge milestone as she turns 50.Some un-doctored, un-photoshopped pics of Madonna have leaked to the internet from a photoshoot she did for her Hard Candy album. As you can see, this is NOT the kind of thing Madonna wants the public to see. Unlike all those airbrushed, professional shots we are used to seeing, this is the real Madonna, and it’s kind of a shock to see considering the lengths she goes to in order to protect her “image.”

Madonna turned 50 this year. That’s a milestone I’d say, half a century, five decades of being a crazy attention-craving star — no small feat to still be an iconic sex-symbol at 50. But at some point, even Madonna’s going to have to throw the towel in and call it a day. She can’t be a sex-kitten forever. Eventually, even kittens grow up to be crotchety, arthritic old pusses, and Madonna’s no different.

I know some 50-year olds. Some look really great, some look a little less than stellar and most just look their age. A few wrinkles here, a few aches and pains, but no worse for wear.
To be fair, Madonna looks pretty good for her age, her REAL age, with her REAL face, without the smoke and mirrors, she does NOT however, look younger than 50, as she clearly wishes she did. And what this tells me is no matter how much you spend on beauty products, plastic surgery, specially blessed Kaballah or 3-hour a day killer workouts, you are what you are.

Madonna, embrace your age and come to terms with it. It’s good to be 50 — it certainly beats the alternative.
