Priyanka Chopra n Kareena Kapoor Catfight
That’s true. Bollywood ladies have been known for a long time for their fights but this time, its different!! Its an open catfight.
It all started in Karan Johar’s show ‘Koffee with Karan’ where Kareena Kapoor aka Bebo asked innocently as to where on earth didPriyanka Chopra get that ‘accent’ of hers. And then came the reply from Bollywood diva Priyanka chopra ‘from the same place where her boyfriend (Saif Ali Khan) got his.’ This seemed to be a smart way of reminding Kareena and everyone that apart from chote Nawab Saif Ali Khan, she had also got the good fortune to study abroad.
And here is one that stole the entire show. The question which Karan asked Priyanka Chopra about what she would like to steal from the computers of Bollywood superstars like SRK, Shahid, Kareena and others. Miss World turned Bollywood actress Priyanka Chopra very promptly enquired giggling ‘Does Kareena have a computer in the first place?’
Now that’s underestimating Kareena Kapoor a bit too much. Even if she doesnt have one, Saif must have gifted her one, atleast by now. Or even better, the company for whom she models can surely gift their brand ambassador one single piece of its slim trip notebook

“It`s difficult to answer right now. Marriage is like death. You never know when it strikes,” said Veena.
The lady from across the border and the Indian actor have been spotted at almost every social gathering since their ‘Bigg Boss’ stint. Ashmit had even thrown a lavish party to celebrate Veena’s birthday.
“It`s really early to consider a life together. What exists between Ashmit and me is special. His is the most dialed number on my phone. In many ways, yes, I love him,” added Veena.
Wedding bells ringing? To this the actress wittily replies “…marriage is like death, you never know when it strikes.
Julianne Hough Video Banned For Being Too Sexy
Actress and country singer Julianne Hough’s music video for her song “Is That So Wrong” was banned by Country Music Television (CMT) and was taken off Youtube (the video cannot be found on Hough’s VEVO page). In the video, Hough, 22, strips down to her bra and rolls around on a bed.
Hough addressed the situation saying “This next song — funny story. I shot a music video for it… and CMT kind of banned it. Apparently, I was taking off too many clothes as I was dancing around my bedroom. But I don’t know — I kind of liked it.”
While Hough says CMT found the video too steamy, CMT has a different story. They are saying the video was pulled due to contract negotiations and that it will be put back in the line-up once the issues are resolved.
Check it out… Kind of steamy, sure. Worthy of getting banned, no way! It’s not like CMT hasn’t cashed in on country star’s sexuality before.

Legendary Actress Elizabeth Taylor Dies of heart failure
Elizabeth Taylor, whose acting talent and made-for-tabloids personal life made her one of Hollywood's most alluring and lasting figures, died Wednesday at age 79. Taylor's publicist, Sally Morrison, confirmed that the actress died of congestive heart failure at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where she had been hospitalized for six weeks.
Taylor's four children, Michael and Christopher Wilding, Liza Todd and Maria Burton, were by her side at the end.
"My mother was an extraordinary woman who lived life to the fullest, with great passion, humor and love," Michael Wilding said in a statement. "We know, quite simply, that the world is a better place for mom having lived in it. Her legacy will never fade, her spirit will always be with us, and her love will live forever in our hearts."
The 'Cleopatra' star underwent heart surgery in 2009, and was hospitalized in February for heart failure.
Taylor made her on-screen debut at the age of nine in the film 'There's One Born Every Minute,' but she first came to national attention in the film 'Lassie Come Home' opposite lifelong friend Roddy McDowall. Her star-making role, however, came a few years later when a then-12-year-old Taylor took on the titular role of Velvet Brown in 1944's 'National Velvet' -- a film that in 2003 was selected for entry into the prestigious National Film Registry by the Library of Congress for being "culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant." 'Raintree County,' the 1957 film that earned her the first of five career Best Actress Oscar nominations.
