The whole Duggar family is no stranger to the limelight. They have been featured on TV, magazines, newspapers and every member of the family is used to the coverage. Last year, Michelle and Jim Bob Duggar announced that they were expecting their 19th child. Naturally, they were once again exposed to publicity. On December 10, 2009, Michelle gave birth to Josie Brooklyn. She was born prematurely, at only 25 weeks’ gestation. The much awaited birth of the Duggars’ 19th child was a mixture of ...


CharlieSheen Santa knows if you’ve been bad or good, and gives you presents accordingly. Apparently, actor Charlie Sheen has been bad this year, and he got a different kind of Christmas present this year: an arrest. A report from Aspen states that the star was arrested Friday in relation to charges of domestic abuse. The police report mentions that Charlie Sheen is being held on suspicion of second-degree assault, menacing, and criminal mischief. The first two are felonies, while the last is a mere misdemeanor. The incident/s happened in ...


oprah-winfrey-b No way, right? That was my first reaction when I read bits and pieces online about Oprah possibly canceling her long time TV show. After all, Oprah (the show) has become one of the most popular – if not THE most popular – talk shows all over the world. As they say, though, if there is smoke, then there is fire. So what is the reason for this “rumor” going around? The Los Angeles Times reported that Oprah recently named Lisa Espramer as her creative chief: The highly ...


pacquiao_vs_cotto Let me ask you a hypothetical question. If Pacman were to go against King Kong, who would you put your money on? Off the top of your head, if you were thinking of the “original” characters, you’d probably say King Kong, right? Then again, if we were talking about the Pacman and King Kong of boxing – which we actually are – then your answer just might take on a different turn. King Kong is how boxing coach Freddie Roach called Puerto Rican Miguel Cotto, the latest opponent of ...


Ziegfeld Theater They say that if you are a genius, if you are truly exceptionally talented, you can be forgiven most anything. I beg to disagree. More so when the person in question is actually not at all that exceptional. Talented maybe; even extremely talented. But I wouldn’t go as far as to say that Kanye West is exceptionally talented. And even if he were, his latest stunt at the MTV Video Music Awards cannot be excused in any plane of thought or existence. Folks, ...


1360645409_36acab03e2jpg It's no joke, the Guiness Book of World Records says "a world record in the length of a queue to a toilet was set on Sunday when 756 people lined up to a latrine in central Brussels to raise awareness for the need for clean water on World Water Day." What an achievement! And boy did it raise eyebrows AND awareness to the cause of World Water Day. The event was organized by the United Nations' children's agency UNICEF which gave each participant a wristband with his or her number ...

It's that time of the year again when golden boys are given to deserving hands for jobs well done.  When America and the world take a stance to pause and enjoy the glares of lights... specially that red carpet.  What we would like to notice though is that there are news that even this prestigious is not without any points of adjustments too, with the recession biting down further in the USA.

Specific to that would be the swags... the celebrity give-aways.  Every year celebrities attending ...




  Countdown is starting all over the world.  It's just a few hours from now when everyone releases 2008 to the past and welcomes 2009, whatevere it brings, to their embrace.  I love the New Year celebration, a worldwide event that all cultures, race & tradition celebrates. On to New York City, one of the biggest celebrations ever specifically in Times Square.  Do you know that they have designed a new ball to drop down on the last minutes of 2008?  Yes they did! Each year, millions of eyes from all over the world are focused ...


  At 35 years old, Seth MacFarlane has made a great achievement.  Not only has his creation been raking in top ratings, it has also earned him a spot into the $100 million dollar man circle.  Yes, that's right, for "The Family Guy", "The American Dad" and "Cleveland" Fox studio has served him a $100 million dollar contract to keep their family guy as happy as he can be. Just heard recently that "Family Guy" has even trumped "The Simpsons" in popularity and total earnings.  I am a huge fan of Homer and his family, but ...


Her final song

  Ask a singer how they would like to "go" and they'd probably say... on stage... performing my heart out... singing my last song.   Well that's how Miriam Makeba "went".  The South African singer who wooed the world with her sultry voice but was banned from her own country for more than 30 years under apartheid, died after collapsing on stage in Italy. She was 76. She was physically on exile but her voice has reached deep within the physical confines of her country... she lived in her countrymen's hearts.   Makeba collapsed on stage Sunday night ...
