Following the death of Michael Jackson earlier this year and the obvious signs of his demise, due to drug abuse, it could be time, once again for someone to sit up and take notice of yet another superstar, George Michael, as he too has become the victim of drug abuse and strange beahviour.

Since his days with musical partner, Andrew Ridgley, the creative talent of George Michael has met with many hurdles, some self inflicted, some totally out of his control, such as his battle with record company Sony when he refused to promote his album, Listen Without Prejudice. read more ....

As Madonna makes her way around Europe with her Sticky and Sweet tour, she litterally has brought the roof down, as her troop of roadies have become victims of a badly erected stage when a 53 year old French man was killed and six others seriously injured when 50 technicians from a range of nationalities were working to set up the structure. Up to a dozen people were underneath the stage when it collapsed, emergency services said.

The Velodrome in Marseille, France’s second biggest sports arena and home to the Olympique de Marseille football club, was to be Madonna’s read more ....

Even in death there is competition! Who attracted the largest TV audience, worldwide, Michael Jackson or The Princess of Wales, Diana? Who attracted the most respected celebrities and dignitaries from around the world, Michael or Diana?

Well, if one considers Mariah Carey’s tacky attempt at Jackson’s own 1970’s hit, ‘I’ll Be There’, failing to find those top notes that Jackson found with such ease, or Usher’s ghoulish touching of Jackson’s gold casket, (that we were led to believe was occupied by Jackson’s body), as any accolade to The King of Pop, then by comparison, Princess Diana wins hands down!

As one would have expected of The King of Pop, Michael Jackson, his final show was just that, ’a show’. Vacillating between a happy, clappy gospel meeting and a special edition of America’s Got Talent, made this two hour extravaganza as much a fanciful display of his death as he had created for himself in life.

TV coverage beginning at 6.00 am, had commentators second guessing just what the Jackson family were doing, taking a crocodiling black cavalcade of cars to the Forest Lawn Cemetery (maybe having a private burial???) and the chosen few waiting to enter The Staples Stadium, where, read more ....

In a week where it’s difficult to remember when there was a period of seven days that has seen the world losing more iconic figures than in the past week, we now hear of the death of Mollie Sugden, better known as Mrs Slocombe of Are You Being Served? fame! 

First, last Tuesday we said a farewell to Johnny Carson’s side kick Ed McMahon. Thursday morning saw the parting of Charlie’s Angel, Farrah Fawcett, 62, after a 3 year battle with cancer, followed only four hours later by the stunning news of the sudden death of Thriller super star Michael Jackson at 50. Then read more ....

As the world mourns the passing of the person it believed was it’s one and only ‘moonwalker,’ we’re here to tell you the real ‘moonwalker’ is still very much alive and kicking.

Yes, Michael Jackson may have moonwalked across many stages but the real moonewalker, Buzz Aldrin has shown us all that he may not be able to make giant leaps but he can still take those small steps as he appeared in a spoof video last week with Snoop Dogg and Soulja Boy.

In less than a month, we will be celebrating Neil Armstrong’s “one giant leap for mankind”, read more ....

The world seems to have quickly forgotten the death of the another huge American icon, this time from the 1970’ & ‘80s, Farrah Fawcett, amid all the grief, hoopla and speculation surrounding the death of Michael Jackson who died on the same day last week, just 4 hours after the beautiful blonde in the red swimsuit!

But as Michael’s father, Joe Jackson told CNN, he ‘has his tears on the inside’ as he meets and greet the press with smiles and laughter, there’s one person who certainly has no intention of forgetting the Charlie’s Angels beauty in a hurry, read more ....

What a surprise! Michael Jackson, who now has a few spare million dollars kicking around in his bank account, thanks to the loyal fan base he has managed to con into believing he would perform 50 shows, is, little by little edging away from his commitment.

With all the hype, the TV coverage and the excited fans that accompanied his March announcement of his much awaited, ‘This Is It’ concerts at London’s O2 Arena, it now appears that Wacko Jacko has found himself an exit strategy - suspected skin cancer.

Thank you all for your charitable donations!

The man behind the mask reared his strange head again this week in the sweltering heat of an early Beverly Hills, Los Angeles summer. Yes, it’s the self proclaimed King of Pop, Michael Jackson, wearing not a crown, but a surgical mask.

This must surely give rise to doubts as to the 50 year old’s ability to perform his promised O2 concerts in London this year. If Michael has to protect his delicate surgically enhanced nostrils from the summer heat, how will he manage to breath while prancing around the stage for 4 months beginning July 8th 2009.
