This is really a shame because Amy had a great gift. But, how many stories like this have we’ve seen where drugs take away a talent that’s God given.

The Huffington Post

Troubled, Grammy-winning singer Amy Winehouse has been found dead in her North London home, Sky News is reporting. The Daily Mail reports that police have confirmed the passing.

In a statement, the London Metropolitan Police said, "Police were called by London Ambulance Service to an address in Camden Square NW1 shortly before 16.05hrs today, Saturday 23 July, following reports of a woman found deceased. On arrival officers found the body of a 27-year-old female who was pronounced dead at the scene. Enquiries continue into the circumstances of the death. At this early stage it is being treated as unexplained."
A suspected drug overdose took the life of the singer, Nick Buckley of the Sunday Mirror tweeted.

She's battled drug addiction for years, having most recently checked back into rehabilitation in May.

Winehouse entered treatment in late 2007 for drug problems, including admitted heroin use.

Earlier in the day, Gatt tweeted a statement from her manager saying that she was withdrawing from all of her upcoming performances, writing, "Amy Winehouse is withdrawing from all scheduled performances. Everyone involved wishes to do everything they can to help her return to her best and she will be given as long as it takes for this to happen."

I have a Aunt who is devastated by this news. She’s a huge Marc Anthony fan and believes him and Jennifer were a cute couple.

But, marriages are pretty disposable nowadays. That’s really a shame.


Daily Mail

Fans are still reeling from the shocking news that Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony have split after seven years of marriage.

While the pair gave little reason for the break-up in the statement they released on their website, speculation is now rife that reports Lopez, 41, will be going topless in her upcoming movie What To Expect When You're Expecting could have had something to do with it.

It was claimed earlier this week that mother-of-two Lopez will be baring almost all in the comedy film, based on the pregnancy book of the same name.

A source told Life And Style magazine: 'According to the script, Jennifer’s character, Holly, bares her breasts to help convince her husband, played by Rodrigo Santoro, that they need to adopt a baby boy.'

And What To Expect When You're Expecting isn't the only role Lopez is apparently planning to strip off in, as she is also set to get racy alongside Jason Statham in crime thrilled Parker.

While it remains to be seen whether the roles had something to do with the split, Lopez has kept her nudity to a minimum since she has been with Anthony.

Lopez famously went topless moments in 1997 movie U Turn, Money Train in 1995 and Out Of Sight in 1998, but has lessened her racy roles since she married Anthony in 2004.

As long as Anthony Weiner is arrogant enough to think he can remain a U.S. congressman, then it’s going to be death by 1,000 cuts.

That suits me just fine!

TMZ

Congressman Anthony Weiner instructed one of his Internet women how to lie about their relationship ... and even offered PR help from his team, which could create major legal issues for him ... TMZ has learned.

Weiner and former porn star Ginger Lee exchanged scores of sexual emails over a long period of time. When the underwear scandal broke on May 28, Lee began receiving calls from the media, and Weiner was more than happy to help her control the situation ... by lying.

Strong, rugged, a man’s man is how I always looked at Jamez Arness. He was the TV version of John Wayne.




Los Angeles Times

James Arness, the towering actor best known for portraying Marshal Matt Dillon, the strong and commanding symbol of frontier justice on the landmark TV western series "Gunsmoke," died Friday. He was 88.
Arness died of natural causes at his home in Brentwood, said family spokesperson Ginny Fazer.

"Gunsmoke" debuted on CBS on Sept. 10, 1955, and, with the start of "The Life and Legend of Wyatt Earp" on ABC four days earlier, a new era in television horse operas was launched: the adult western.

But whereas "Wyatt Earp," starring Hugh O'Brian, ended its run in 1961, "Gunsmoke" ran until 1975, far outdistancing its many competitors and becoming one of the longest-running prime-time series in network TV history.

In the process, Arness became one of television's most enduring stars, returning as Dillon in a handful of "Gunsmoke" TV movies in the late '80s and early '90s.

At 6 feet 7, Arness was a bigger-than-life actor who amply filled the boots of the mythic Dodge City lawman in the series, which earned praise for breaking TV western-genre conventions with its strong dramatic stories and psychologically complex characters.

"Matt," Arness once said, "is very human and has all the failings and drives common to anyone who is trying to do a difficult job the best he knows how."

Arness was nominated for Emmys three times during the show's early years. Like John Wayne on the big screen, Arness was an imposing presence on the small screen.

"I absolutely believe any pantheon of enduring, well-crafted and memorable television characters would have to include James Arness," David Bushman, then the television curator at what is now the Paley Center for Media in New York, told The Times some years ago. "He became part of the national psyche."

The Sun reports these girls Shore look good as they prepare for stardom ahead of their TV debut.
The four Geordie Shore lasses show they are the bust in the world of reality TV by posing in racy black lingerie

And they vowed to show viewers that they are even sexier than the girls from The Only Way Is Essex when the show kicks off on MTV tonight.

Vicky Pattison, 23, told Nuts magazine: "What's really sexy about Geordie Shore is that we're all ourselves, whereas girls in Essex are constantly dolled up to the nines."

And when asked if they would say that Newcastle is the only way, rather than Essex, 20 year-old Charlotte Letitia-Crosby hit back "that's exactly what I'd say!"

But they made it clear that they respected the TOWIE gang.

When asked if they'd prefer a night out with the Essex girls or the posh Made In Chelsea cast, Sophie Kasaei, 21, replied: "Essex all over".

The trio, along with Holly Hagan, 18, will join lads Gary Beadle, 23, Jason Gardner, 24, Greg Lake, 26, and James Tindale, 20, in the Newcastle version of Jersey Shore, which sees them have a wild time while sharing a house together.

The programme will start on Tuesday, May 24 at 10pm on MTV





UPDATE 5-26-11

I’m not an Orah Winfrey fan.

So I’m not moved by the taping of her last show. She really lost me from feeling at least ambivalent about her when she turned her back on Christianity to endorse New Wave sophistry



Millions of people were hurt by this.

But, the biggest reason I don’t care much for her was giving her blessing to a community organizer from the Southside of Chicago.


Thanks for nothing!

If Marie Osmond doesn’t look like the unhappy bride in history, I don’t know who does. But, how happy can you be to re-marry an ex-husband?

I think she’s losing it.


Daily Mail reports for Marie Osmond it was a case of something old, not something new, as she walked down the aisle for the second time with Steve Craig today.

For not only was the 51-year-old actress remarrying her first husband - she had also managed to squeeze herself into the very dress she wore 29 years ago.
And while she said it felt like the fitting thing to do, the Hollywood star confessed it was perhaps not the most comfortable to wear.

Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Marie revealed: 'I can't breathe, but I'm in it.'
Marie also told how she had got a new dress designed, but it didn't feel right when she saw the finished product.

'I had a dress all designed [for this wedding] and when it showed up it was not [right],' she told Entertainment Tonight's Mary Hart in an interview to be aired tomorrow.

'I was so sad, I was actually kind of in tears,' she recalled, adding: 'I was cleaning out my garage and all of a sudden this box showed up in this pile of stuff … and it was this dress and it was five days ago.
'I'm not kidding. Isn't that crazy?'

Of course she might not have been able to have got into her old dress at all if it wasn't for her dramatic weight loss over recent years.
