Ok This is not exactly bollywood But,Micheal Jackson is above and all the biggest superstar the world could have had .Just like there can never be another Amitabh Bachchan or another Shah Rukh Khan , there can never be another Micheal Jackson!
King of Pop is dead but his legacy will will on ......forever.......
Tributes have been pouring in for pop singer Michael Jackson who died yesterday following a suspected cardiac arrest in his Bel-Air home.
The 13-time Grammy award winner Jackson was pronounced dead at 10.26 p.m. Irish time after arriving at the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in full cardiac arrest, said Fred Corral of the Los Angeles County Coroner's office.
The cause of death is not known and an autopsy is likely to take place later today, Mr Corral said.
Jackson was taken ill at home and his personal physician tried to resuscitate him but could not, his brother Jermaine told reporters. Jackson was taken by paramedics to the hospital, where doctors worked for more than an hour to try to revive him before pronouncing him dead, the brother said.
Jackson (50) became a musical icon performing with The Jackson 5, when he was just six years of age. By the time he was 11, he’d graduated from standing at the back playing the tambourine and bongos to fronting the group’s debut Motown single I Want You Back . It went to number one and Jackson’s haul of blockbuster hits begun.
But it was 1983’s Thriller which was the singer’s tour-de-force. It sold like no other album before it, amassing 60 million sales and seeing seven of the album’s nine tracks released as singles.
The next year, he unveiled his signature “moonwalk” dance move while performing Billie Jean during an NBC special.
In recent years, controversy continued to dominate his life. A 2003 television documentary, Living with Michael Jackson , claimed that Jackson still had sleepovers with young boys and had his third child with a surrogate mother, but Jackson denied these charges.
Concerns about his health had been rampant during his 2005 trial in California on charges of child sex abuse at which he was acquitted and in 2008 when he was photographed in Las Vegas in a wheelchair for reasons that were never explained.
At the time of his death, Jackson was preparing to perform 50 concerts at London’s 02 Arena.The shows, which were due to begin on July 13, sold out within hours of going on sale. AEG Live said Jackson had passed a lengthy physical exam in early 2009, before the London concerts were announced.
"For Michael to be taken away from us so suddenly at such a young age, I just don't have the words. I've lost my little brother today, and part of my soul has gone with him," said Quincy Jones, who collaborated with Jackson on three of his best-selling albums, Off the Wall, Thriller and Bad .
Michael is survived by three children: Michael Joseph Jackson, Jr., Paris Michael Katherine Jackson and Prince Michael Jackson II.
Read the controversial interview published in Time N Style Magazine below which due to a typo and landed Shah Rukh in trouble.
The magazine has since then apologised for the error and corrected the typing error.
Point to be noted: Why members of MAC (Mumbai Aman Committee) were reading a magazine like Time N Style Luxury???
The Interview:WHAT’S IT LIKE TO GET UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL WITH SHAH RUKH KHAN AND ASK HIM THE ZANIEST QUESTIONS? WHAT’S IT LIKE TO BE FATHER, SUPERSTAR, ACTOR AND DREAM GUY ALL ROLLED INTO ONE? THE BRAND AMBASSADOR OF TAG HEUER FIELDS SOME PRETTY UNNERVING QUESTIONS
“I was destined to higher studies or elite team sports but I chose to major in filmmaking. People say I now rule Bollywood, but the way I see it, I simply work hard on making endless opportunities to challenge and reinvent myself. A cross-over to Hollywood is not an option: I’d rather make a mark without losing my identity and my culture. My name is Shah Rukh Khan and I share TAG Heuer’s values.”

If your home was burning down, what would you save with your two hands?
My children — son Aryan and daughter Suhana.
You are no fan of …
Restaurants and eating out.
How much power have women got?
As much as they would like to wield… It’s just that they need to believe in themselves.Women are more powerful than men, I’m a true believer of that. But sometimes they don’t wield it because they feel it would be wrong. I think they should go out and wield the power.
From your Fairy Godmother you would ask for …
I would ask her to meet my daughter. She loves fairies.
The most impressive figure in history, according to you?
There are lots of them, some negative ones like Hitler. On the other hand there are nice ones like Napoleon, Winston Churchill and if I can call it history, then Prophet Mohammed and from recent times - Nelson Mandela. And also Gandhiji and Mother Teresa who are equally impressive.
What virtue should every man have?
The right thing to do, I think, is not use a modus operandi to make someone fall in love with you. Just be honest and go with it.
For one day I would like to be (Heidi Klum, George Bush, an Eskimo…)
No one else. The world wants to be me, so why should I want to be someone else?
What is your most favourite song ever?
‘Suzanna I’m crazy loving you’.
Which book made a deep impression on you and why?
I liked the plot and story of Shantaram. The Da Vinci Code is nice as well and so is Bourne Identity. I like fiction; of course Shantaram is not fiction, otherwise Nine Paths of Desire by an Iranian writer is another book that moved me.
Is there anything that angers you in this world?
Not any more, I don’t get angry about anything except when people let me down...like if somebody says I cannot do this. I like people who say I can’t and I don’t and I won’t... but I don’t like people who say they can, they will and then they don’t.
What are you made of? (Which incidentally happens to be the tagline of the brand
TAG Heuer!)
Lot of humour, lot of hard work, lot of perseverance and lot of fun. And I like to believe in lot of honesty.
You are since 2003, a member of the ‘TAG Heuer dream team of brand ambassadors’ with Tiger Woods, Maria Sharapova, Kimi Raikonnen, Lewis Hamilton and now Leonardo Di Caprio, just to mention a few… it must be something special: how do you feel in this role?
It’s very exciting. This brand chooses people around the world who’re not only achievers but perfectionists. Ihave seen Leonardo Di Caprio from Titanic, and also other movies before that — apart from being a handsome young man, he is also very intelligent. I saw and heard him speak at the Golden Globe awards. He knows what to say and speaks very intelligently.
Which watch do you generally wear? Do you connect with it as just an accessory or on a personal level?
Fortunately, I have enough TAG Heuer watches to match every mood and occasion. I wear the Carrera Tachymetre when I am relaxing or hanging out. I wear the Grand Carrera for slightly formal occasions. I like to wear my Monaco 69 SRK Limited Edition as well.
Which values of the brand do you share the most?
Sportiness and toughness.
A day after a police complaint was filed against him for 'hurting religious sentiments' in Islam, Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh said Friday that his comments to a magazine were misinterpreted due to a 'writing error'.
Comments on Prophet Mohammad a writing error: Shah RukhThe First Information Report (FIR) was lodged by the Mumbai Aman Committee (MAC) at the Bandra police station here Thursday after they read in Time'N Style-Luxury that Shah Rukh had listed Prophet Mohammad as one of the most unimpressive personalities in history alongside Adolf Hitler and Winston Churchill.
But Shah Rukh said it was a 'writing error' and that he had named the Prophet among the most impressive personalities in history.
'Obviously I think that there is no more important figure in history than Prophet Mohammad in the most positive way possible. Also, being a Muslim and standing up for the tenets of Islam is my most important agenda. If they (MAC) have seen my interviews on TV about Islam and Prophet Mohammad, they would know it's a writing error and not a thought or view that I believe in,' Shah Rukh told IANS in an SMS message.
'For all practical purposes, Prophet Mohammad is the most important positive figure in Islam,' he added.
A corrigendum from the magazine was also published across Mumbai newspapers Thursday wherein the magazine accepted the error.
The corrigendum stated: 'This is with reference to the interview with Shah Rukh Khan that featured in Time'N Style-Luxury Vol-1 issue: The answer to question 'According to you (Shah Rukh) who is the most impressive figure in history?' should have appeared as: 'There are lots of them. Some negative ones like Hitler. Then Napoleon, Winston Churchill were impressive.
' 'If I can call it history then most impressive, positive figure Prophet Mohammad and from recent times there are the nice ones like Nelson Mandela, Gandhiji and Mother Teresa.' This is a clarification and the error is deeply regretted.'
An official from the Bandra police station, however, confirmed that the FIR had not been withdrawn even after the corrigendum was published.

Soon after the complaint was registered, the girl was sent to the Nagpada police hospital for a medical examination late Sunday night.
After the complaint was registered, a police team went to Ahuja's flat and called him for inquiry, said an officer. Ahuja is married and is known for his roles in films like ‘Hazaroon Khwaishe, ‘Aish' and ‘Gangster'.
Mahesh Bhatt, who produced Gangster for Shiney Ahuja, said, "This is a body blow to me. I spoke to a top police official who told me that he was informed by his juniors at Oshiwara that Shiney claimed that he had sex with the consent of the maid. However, she has claimed that she was forced into it. The police officer added that they had to accept the woman's version. I had spoken to Shiney only yesterday. If he is found guilty of rape, we have to condemn him."
Sonam Kapoor and Imran Khan unveiled Filmfare’s June issue on Tuesday, June 2, at Vie Lounge, Juhu, Mumbai. The two stars feature on the cover in a romantic pose under the tag line ‘Sexy Trendsetters.’
While we find the tagline creatively challenged it is difficult not to agree with it.
Sonam, L'Oreal’s newly appointed brand ambassador, is evolving as a fashion icon. She looked stylish in a midnight blue crepe silk sleeveless jumpsuit with mandarin collar and studded twin belts at low waist.
She accessorized with peep toe heels, croc leather clutch, a black strap watch in her left arm and chunky gold vintage jewelry - earrings, owl pendant, two bangles in her right arm and a white stone cocktail ring in her right hand index finger.
Her hair was styled in a sleek ponytail that draped her left shoulder and side swept bangs that framed her face.
Imran Khan looked charming sporting a school boy look. He wore a white dress shirt, dark blue distressed jeans, red striped tie and white sports shoes.
Imran, 26, and Sonam, 23, will be seen together in Punit Malhotra's next, a young romantic musical. Both the stars are two movies old but enjoy a large fan base.
Sonam will make her stage debut with a performance at the 10th International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) awards at Macau, China. Other acts at the event include Aishwarya Rai, Kareena Kapoor, Lara Dutta, Sushmita Sen and Bipasha Basu.
Bollywood's hottest heroine says she can spend "like crazy" when something catches her fancy. She does not, however, have a label fetish when it comes to picking up something she likes.
Only one thing we can't understand is that why she is such a big copycat!
What's wrong with the indian fashion designers that she has to copy the dresses from western ones. We are not lying the pictures say something .
Now what Priety Zinta has to says is contrary to what she is actually doing....You decide...
This is what Priety Zinta has to say about her fashion :
My favourite Indian designer: I really like Manish Malhotra's stuff.
Designers I dig abroad: I like Valentino and Roberto Cavalli. I like Calvin Klein. He has very straight-lined stuff.
Most of my shopping happens: Abroad. There are very few times I shop here mainly because, here, you are usually on outdoors [an outdoor shoot] or [in the] studios. Where do you have the time to shop? Usually, when you are on a holiday, you shop.
I even shopped at Shoppers' Stop once: I needed salwar-kameezes for a dance rehearsal. You can't wear track bottoms and do Indian dance. [Since] I had given all my old salwar-kameezes [away, I needed to buy new ones]. I just randomly shop.
I am not a label person: Whatever I like anywhere, I pick it up.
Fashion to me means: Whatever I feel comfortable in. I like to mix and match. I'll buy something from the street. I'll buy something from a fashion house.
Most expensive buy/bite: I had to attend this party instantly and I didn't have shoes. So I went and bought a pair of shoes worth 1,200 Euro [approximately Rs 67,405]. And let me show you [shows her leg which has two painful-looking shoe bite marks]… it has this bee-like thing across and it dug into my skin and gave me two little lines. And now I have got marks. I look at those shoes and go 'This is the most expensive bite of my life' [laughs].
