Emma Watson 'shaken' by Harvard stalking......

Emma Watson 'shaken' by Harvard stalking; Padma Lakshmi pregnant with first child; Autopsy: Michael Jackson was 'healthy'




Harry Potter star Emma Watson appeared "quite shaken" after students from rival university Harvard stalked her during a recent football match, according to New York gossip column PageSix.

The actress, who attends Brown University, in Rhode Island, was at a game between the two schools on Saturday, but security guards had to surround her to protect her from harassment.

Harvard's student magazine The Voice targeted Watson and posted a blog on its Web site stating supporters would try to draw as much attention to her as possible.

The post reads, "We will be Live-Tweetin' the game and possibly stalking Emma Watson, so keep your eyes peeled for that, too!"

During the match, students from the Harvard Voice wrote a series of posts on Twitter.com, including: "In enemy territory. Lookin for a certain witch," and, "WATSON FOUND. I repeat WATSON FOUND."

The magazine also posted a photo of the star and branded the stalking campaign a "success," PageSix reports.

But after a series of complaints, the editor of The Voice attached a note to the picture saying, "There seems to be much ado about nothing over this photo and liveblog. Understand that these live tweets were made to be intentionally outrageous and overblown."

There was no comment from Watson's representative as WENN went to press. A spokesperson from Brown said, "This isn't the sort of thing we comment on."

Kamini Says: Lady Gaga and Kanye West on Drama Tour

Kanye West and Lady Gaga are set to join forces on their "Fame Kills" tour. These two are so high drama, we can't know what to expect. I'm sure this is the image want to convey to fans as excess is a draw in both their careers. Gaga and West push boundaries more than anyone else on the scene right now. Their promo for the tour is no exception. The pulp image of a naked Gagita and Kanye's hand reaching around her torso plays on so many taboos that it borders cliché.

When you are a celebrity who seeks fame through media ploys and extravagant designs, how can you also complain that it kills you? And then ask for more! Of course it's more complex than that and how can the rest of the world possibly understand the trials of fame, blah blah blah. Please.

West will use any concept and opportunity to get attention. He's like that nervous adolescent boy who won't stop teasing until you notice him. Lady Gaga is not an opening act, but was asked to tour alongside Kanye. I think he sought her out to bring some originality to his player ways. While Kanye was once bold, he has become predictable lately. His recent publicity stunt saying that he'll take time to "reflect on his life" is probably equal to the time he takes to come up with the next ploy to get under the spotlight.

This is the Drama Tour if ever I saw one.

Gagita can hold her own next to Kanye. I'm not worried about that, but she's gonna need a plan for all the last minute stunts he'll be planning to get in on her end of the show. When the "Fame Kills" tour ends, Gaga is going to need some time to reflect of her own.



Film Review: 'What's Your Raashee?'
The Story:

"What's Your Raashee?" is a romantic comedy about a young man who needs to get hitched in ten days and finds love through zodiac signs.

'What's Your Raashee?' tells the story of a Chicagoan, Yogesh Patel (Harman Baweja), who returns to Mumbai with the false news of his ailing father. Instead, he's desperately called back home to free his family from utter ruin. In order to bail his family out of the financial mess, Yogesh must get married in ten days. If Yogesh meets the deadline, he will inherit his grandfather's estate and pay off all of his family loans. After lots of emotional blackmail and restless nights due to jetlag, Yogesh agrees to marriage without the acceptance of dowry.

One night, Yogesh is inspired by a book on astrology and decides to begin his bride hunt by meeting one girl from every raashee - zodiac sign. His parents put in a matrimonial ad and Yogesh gets 163 replies. Once his parents have shortlisted the girls, Yogesh sets out to find his dream girl by going on twelve different dates; the girls are - (Priyanka Chopra) - Anjali (Aries), Vishaka (Taurus), Kajal (Gemini), Hansa (Cancer), Mallika (Leo), Pooja (Virgo), Rajni (Libra), Nandini (Scorpio), Bhavna (Sagittarius), Jhankhana (Capricorn), Sanjana (Aquarius) and Chandrika (Pisces). He decides to meet two girls per day for six days, gives himself three days to make a decision, and leaves the tenth day for marriage.

While all the girls are from various parts of Mumbai and have strikingly different personalities, Yogesh is the only one who sees a resemblance between all of them. All of this confuses him further and makes it harder for him to make a final decision. With pressure from his parents and limited time, Yogesh goes into deep thought before taking the big step. But before you find out who he ties the knot with, there's a climax song featuring all twelve of his prospective brides.

The Cast:

Harman Baweja as Yogesh Patel - a popular DJ and bachelor from the University of Chicago who is desperately called back to Mumbai to save his debt-ridden family by getting married in ten days. He agrees to meet one girl from each of the 12 zodiac signs but can't figure out which one he actually loves.

Priyanka Chopra as:

Anjali - an Aries with a slouch, sports a Thai look, speaks with an accent ('Mon-dates, Toos-dates'), snorts while she laughs, tries her hand at cigarettes and likes to drink.

Vishakha - a Taurus, she's a vivacious Gujarati girl who enjoys classical music, must test the guy before marriage and sings 'Su Che' when she meets Yogesh.

Kajal - the bubble-blowing Gemini, she's a lanky street-clothed small-town college girl who loves hip-hop dancing and needs time to 'connect' with Yogesh.

Hansa - a Cancer, she's the teary-eyed middle-class virgin with traditional values who suffers from a heartbreak.

Mallika - an ambitious Leo, she's an easygoing girl and a passionate modern dancer.

Pooja - a Virgo, she's a sexy microbiologist from Kampala who wears yellow sarees and is keen on trying new things. As a doctor, she expects Yogesh to support her in all of her ventures.

Rajni - the Libra, a modern businesswoman looking for a contract marriage to save her from an ongoing CBI enquiry.

Nandini - the Scorpio who is traditional by day and naughty by night, she aspires to become a supermodel.

Bhavna - an intelligent and charming Sagittarius who studies astrology and enjoys reading.

Jhankhana - a Capricorn, she's a surprisingly strong, unattractive schoolgirl who has inner beauty.

Sanjana - an Aquarius and die-hard romantic, she's the elegant and high society girl with a fake American accent, knows how to mingle and is in love with an African man.

Chandrika - a psychotic Pisces who's obsessed with reincarnation and is convinced that she knows Yogesh from a previous birth.

Elizabeth Smart: Captor 'used religion'

SALT LAKE CITY, Oct. 2 (UPI) -- Elizabeth Smart, testifying Thursday at a hearing in Salt Lake City for the man accused of abducting her in 2002, said he "used religion to get what he wanted."


Smart, 21, described for U.S. District Judge Dale Kimball how Brian David Mitchell took her at knifepoint from her home when she was 14, The Salt Lake Tribune reported. Smart said Mitchell forced her to hike to his home, where his wife, Wanda Eileen Barzee, forced her to change from her pajamas into a robe and Mitchell performed a marriage ritual, the newspaper said.


"After that, he proceeded to rape me," Smart testified during the hearing to determine Mitchell's competency to stand trial.

Mitchell has been diagnosed with a delusional disorder.

Smart said Mitchell raped her three to four times a day for the nine months she was held captive and claimed he was a prophet of God.

"He used religion to get what he wanted," she testified. "He had an excuse for everything he did with a religious side to it."

U.S. District Attorney Brett Tolman said Smart's testimony established that Mitchell was primarily interested in getting away with criminal acts, the newspaper said. Defense attorney Robert Steele said some of Smart's testimony supported the suggestion that Mitchell is delusional.

Smart said Mitchell made her use alcohol and drugs and exposed her to pornography.

"Anything I showed resistance or hesitation to, he would turn to me and say, 'The Lord has commanded you to do this, you have to experience the lowest form of humanity to experience the highest,'" she testified.

The next hearing on Mitchell's competency is scheduled for Nov. 30.

Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson was healthy before death

Michael Jackson was in good health until he was injected with a lethal cocktail of drugs hours before he died.




The Los Angeles County Coroner's autopsy report has revealed the singer - who died of acute Propofol intoxication on June 25 - was not suffering from any serious physical problems at the time of his death.

Apart from slightly inflamed lungs and minor arthritis, he was in a "good condition", with a healthy heart and kidneys and "weight average for his height".

His sexual organs were also functioning normally, with the report noting Michael was still producing sperm when he died.

The findings are likely to put pressure on Michael's personal physician Dr. Conrad Murray - who allegedly injected him with the powerful anaesthetic that killed him - as it proves the singer had no underlying health conditions that might have contributed to his death.

The post mortem also revealed bizarre details about Michael's body, including a tattoo on his scalp that stretched from ear to ear in a bid to hide his receding hairline and baldness.

His remaining hair was "tightly curled" and cut short so it could be hidden under his long, flowing wigs.

His lips had been tattooed pink and his eyebrows blackened with more ink.

The coroner's report also suggests Michael was not lying about suffering from vitiligo - a rare skin pigmentation disease he blamed for his transformation from black to white - with the physician noting that he had patches of black skin on his legs and elsewhere on his body.

Injuries inflicted by frantic attempts to revive the star were also visible on his body, including cracked ribs and extensive bruising.

Michael's death was ruled a homicide last month.

Jennifer Garner's no nude

Jennifer Garner says "the world deserves better" than to see her naked.






The 'Invention of Lying' actress has vowed never to bare all for a movie role because she doesn't believe anyone would want to see it.

She said: "I will not be taking it all off! Zero percent. No, thank you. The world deserves better. Not interested."

The actress' co-star in the movie, British funnyman Ricky Gervais, agreed with her view - unless he can draft in a stunt double.

He told MTV: "OK, well then, it's equal. It's joint equal at, 'No way! Absolutely no way!'

"There's no chance of me doing it. Unless I had a stunt one."

One person Ricky wouldn't have as his body double is Jennifer's 'Ghost of Girlfriends Past' co-star Matthew McConaughey, who is famed for his toned physique.

Ricky said: "Different sort of bodies though, aren't they?. He shaves his chest, doesn't he?"




Jennifer Garner: ‘I Won’t go Nude’

Jennifer Garner has sworn off ever doing a nude scene.

The actress — who stars opposite British comedian Ricky Gervais in new movie The Invention of Lying — says there’s “zero chance” she’ll be getting her kit off in front of the cameras.

“I will not be taking it all off! Zero percent,” she insisted. “No, thank you. The world deserves better. Not interested.”

Garner — who is married to actor Ben Affleck — recently admitted she often tells lies.

“I would not even attempt to go one day without lying,” she said. “What if someone asks you how you are and you have to stop and tell them how you are really feeling? You would never get through the day. No, I have to lie. I think we all do.”

Jennifer Aniston Leads 'An Interesting Life,' Says Costar
Aaron Eckhart calls the actress "easygoing" while filming Love Happens Source:
People.comThursday, Sep 17, 2009

Expecting diva-like antics from Jennifer Aniston? No way, says her co-star in the upcoming Love Happens.

"She was very easygoing, very effortless," Aaron Eckhart, 41, said at the movie's premiere in Westwood, Calif., Tuesday. "I think that's the word I want to use: effortless."

He explains, "She keeps good people around her. She's interested. She asks questions. She gets outside of herself and lives, I would say at the very least, an interesting life. It's not really always her own. She deals with it very well."

In between photo ops with Eckhart, Aniston, 40, attended Tuesday's premiere solo, smiling, taking pictures with fans, signing autographs and talking to press - though she kept her chatter brief.

"Love - that's what I love about love," Aniston told reporters. "That's it."

She described Love Happens, her romantic drama-comedy with Eckhart, as "a really good experience. Moving. See it. You'll see why."

Co-star John Carroll Lynch said, "I love that she suffers in this fishbowl of life, and I find her intriguing. I find it extraordinary."


Poor Jennifer Aniston. She’s heartbroken again, and it was a dirty breakup this time. Her boyfriend—a rock musician—cheats on her, and she discovers it by picking up a lipstick-stained wine glass. It’s a fictional breakup, of course—at the beginning of her new movie, Love Happens—but her twisted face and emotional stuttering are straight out of real life, where we're used to seeing Aniston on the receiving end of a guy's bad behavior. While most heroines from romantic comedies are perpetually down in the dumps (see: Sandra Bullock, Rachel McAdams, or even Julia Roberts), Aniston is playing her own version of cinéma vérité: it’s impossible to tell whether her character’s pain is any different from her own. Watching her like this feels strange, but familiar. We’ve been force-fed so many details of her romantic rumblings that any time a man cheats on her, walks out on her, or refuses to marry her (as Ben Affleck does in He’s Just Not That Into You), we’re reminded of the days when Brad Pitt mattered so much that boutiques were selling T shirts that said TEAM ANISTON and TEAM JOLIE.

That was five years ago, and still, Aniston has remained one of Hollywood’s most polarizing woman. Even when her own husband left her and coincidentally ended up in Angelina Jolie’s arms, many women didn’t come to her defense. Instead, they said: “Good for Brad.” From that debate, the subtext became a sad refrain: why is Jennifer Aniston still single? Now, it’s even sadder, because that’s the narrative the actress pushes in her own films. Like Lauren Conrad, she's become her own reality star, a woman whose life on screen is impossible to separate from real life.


'Jennifer's Body' star Megan Fox admits she's spooked by her 'supernatural' power over men

She has a beautiful face and a stunning figure ... but Megan Fox admits she is frightened by her amazing power over men.

Fox, 23, said she first realized her allure when she was 12.

“I think initially it’s sort of overwhelming because little girls are very much exposed to sexuality through the media and the entertainment industry and advertisements,” she told People magazine.

“So when you realize that you have the same power that you’ve watched women who’ve come before you have, it is frightening and you don’t know what to do with it.”

Guillermo Arriaga's "The Burning Plain" is a slow-simmer sort of film, taking every moment of its nearly two hours to bring its story of two families connected by tragedy to a boil. But it takes just 20 seconds to expose -- literally, expose -- its star, Charlize Theron.

Oh, yes, the gorgeous former model is naked.

But the scene leaves you far more uneasy than aroused. As mysterious loner Sylvia, Theron cuts a harsh, flawed figure in the cold, bluish light of morning. "Get out," she snaps to a man sleeping in her bed.

And she doesn't bother saying goodbye when he leaves.

"When I read the script I thought it was a great opening to the character," Theron says of her stark introduction, which might have caused any other actress to lobby for a rewrite. "You start asking questions immediately as soon as you see it. . . . 'Who is this woman? Who would be that cold to the man that she wakes up with?' "

Playing unlikable characters is nothing new to Theron, who won an Oscar in 2004 for her physically and emotionally unflattering turn as serial killer Aileen Wuornos in "Monster."

Charlize Theron thrown out of America!

Hollywood star Charlize Theron was kicked out of America while filming Devil's Advocate, reoprts contactmusic.com.

The star has revealed she was briefly kicked out of America as her career was taking off - because she was working illegally in Hollywood.

As her work visa expired, Theron was still fighting for roles in Hollywood - and had just landed a role opposite Al Pacino and Keanu Reeves in 2007 film The Devil's Advocate when immigration officials caught up with her.

She explains, "I had to hold out for two years after playing the femme fatale in Two Days In The Valley because people wanted me to play that role. I think there was a conscious effort on my part to hold back and I didn't work for two years and I waited and really fought for roles in The Devil's Advocate and The Yards, Cider House Rules.

no bikinis please

Ekta Kapoor the small screen queen has 300 guests and she is going to invite them all at her Juhu Bungalow, which is quite a distance from the sea. She says, “No bikinis please” to her friends and guests as she hosts her belated birthday bash on the ominous day, 9/11.
The reason behind this is Ekta’s cool pair of pants which she got from Goa, and now the lady wants to flaunt them. So a birthday bash is a nice occasion for her. And it doesn’t matter if she is a bit chubby; she can still look kewl. We hope this time she will be without a tika.

Ekta wants her guests to chill out and feel completely at ease; they can wear bermudas and casuals and be relaxed, cool and enjoy, very unlike her soap actresses decked up in traditional attires and make-up all the time, even while they are sleeping.

Nevertheless, what’s the reason to host a birthday party after two months and that too on a gloomy day like 9/11? Ekta wasn’t free to host a party earlier, and in August she is busy with Ganpathi celebrations. So, for a religious girl like her, a birthday bash can
wait.


Salman Khan speaks about Shah Rukh Khan
Salman Khan has spoken up to the media about Shah Rukh Khan and his changing girlfriends . He feels that Shah Rukh is one of the most insecure actors in the industry. If he were to put his insecurity aside, he would actually be a nice guy. When they both started their careers, they were friends but as they tasted more success, they drifted apart because of his insecurity.


He also feels that the media is too quick to make comments on his personal life. If he begins to date someone, he needs time to get to know them well. And even if they aren’t in a relationship yet, they are forced to enter into one because so much is being written about them. And in case, they are not very compatible, the media writes that he changes girlfriends too often.
rrfan Khan during the shoot of Acid Factory, kissed Dia Mirza on the lips when the scene required him to only plant a kiss on her cheek. Dia was annoyed and called up producer Sanjay Gupta and made her displeasure felt.

Our source revealed, “We were shooting one of the most vital sequences in South Africa. It was the scene where Dia introduces Irrfan to Fardeen Khan and Irrfan comes ahead and kisses Dia on the cheek, making it clear to Fardeen to not step into his territory as he suspects that there is something brewing between them. However, to everyone’s surprise, Irrfan smacked Dia on her lips. She was shocked as such a kiss was not a part of the script. Dia did not make an issue about the scene at that time, but called up Sanjay later. Dia maintained a cold demeanor towards Irrfan after the scene.”

The actress, however, chose to play down the incident and said, “Yes, I was surprised by Irrfan’s act as it was not a part of the script. But it was hardly a kiss, like you say. That’s the genius of his acting. I didn’t feel violated in any way, or bad about it as I don’t see the incident as Irrfan crossing the line. I guess he did it to establish the chemistry between us in the scene.”

Sanjay Gupta said, “Dia did call me up and talked about the incident as I was not present on the sets during the shoot. I guess Irrfan wanted to make the scene more believable, and if you see the rushes, you’ll know that Irrfan has succeeded. And since Dia is cool about it, I’m okay too.”

Shooting for Balki’s Amitabh-Abhishek starrer Paa in Oxford and Cambridge proved to be too lovely an experience for the actress to leave behind. After the whole unit left, she decided to stay for an extra week.
Recounting the experience Vidya says, “I just couldn’t help it. Just being in Cambridge shooting was not enough. I felt a deep connect with the campus and the environment. I just wanted to walk around the campus with books in hand so I’d look like a student.”
Once the shooting was over, Vidya decided to stay over. “Luckily I’ve a friend in Cambridge. I stayed with her, and her husband. It was the most enriching experience of my life. Just the air and the feel of the place are so special.”
Vidya now intends to buy herself a quiet escape route. “I can’t afford a place in Cambridge. But I know of a place near Mumbai that offers the same climate and topography. But I am not revealing it.”

Salman Khan is the next choice of Deepika.

Deepika’s entry in Bollywood with Om Santi Om alongside SRK and had since worked with Akshay Kumar, Ranbir Kapoor and Saif Ali Khan in this summer’s smash hit Love Aaj Kal. After the success of Love Aaj Kal, her eyes set on none other than Salman Khan.

Talking about Salman, Deepika says that "I feel Salman is a very honest person. He is genuine about what he feels and what I have read and known about him, he seems to be very caring."

Let us hope that the Deepika/Sallu jodi happens so that the beauty can tick another superstar hero off her list. Currently Deepika is filming for the comedy Housefull, in which she costars with Akshay Kumar.

Two Sisters of 'Sorority Row

Two Sisters of 'Sorority Row'

Two of MTV's reality hotties, Audrina Patridge ("The Hills") and Jamie Chung ("The Real World: San Diego"), star as college coeds in the campy horror flick "Sorority Row" (in theaters September 11), which follows a group of sorority sisters who try to cover up the death of one of their own, then find themselves being stalked by a serial killer! I got to talk to the aspiring actresses briefly about their new film -- which makes me happy that I never pledged a sorority -- as well as how they got their starts in reality television.

Michelle Williams: 'I Feel Hopeful and Grateful'
Michelle Williams has kept a relatively low profile since Heath Ledger, the father of her daughter, Matilda, tragically died in January 2008. Who can blame her? Every time Williams and her little girl step out the door of their Brooklyn brownstone, the paparazzi are ready to pounce. In an attempt to shield her child from intrusive photogs and unnecessary coverage in the tabloids, the actress has been extremely reluctant to give interviews ... until now.

"I didn't know what my boundaries were for a long time, which made interviews feel very unsafe," she shares in Vogue's October issue. "I can talk about grief, because that's mine; about single parenting; about trying to balance work and kids. But what I don't have to talk about is what happened between Heath and me in our relationship."

Clearly, the actress adored Ledger, whom she met while filming "Brokeback Mountain." "[It] was an unrepeatable moment in time, a very charmed time in my life," she recalls. "I was in love; I was in a movie I was proud to be a part of, and with a beautiful brand-new baby. Everything was good in that moment."

'Don't Cha' Wish Your Girlfriend Was Colbie Caillat?

When the Pussycat Dolls and Busta Rhymes released "Don't Cha" in 2005, it was a sassy, brash, in-your-face pop tease. It was also a worldwide hit, sitting at No. 1 in the United States for 19 straight weeks.

But the song you danced to four years ago could've sounded a lot different with someone else at the mic. In fact, it was offered to English pop group Sugarbabes and reality TV diva Paris Hilton before it landed in the Dolls' hands.

And now, as part of Pepsi Music's "Cover Art" series, Colbie Caillat is taking it for a spin. The "Bubbly" singer transformed the track into a slow, sultry vocal seduction laid over a jazzy, funky backdrop. "I chose this song because I wanted to have fun and kind of get out of my comfort zone," she explained.

Take a look and a listen, though, and you'll see an artist who looks quite comfortable taking something familiar and making fresh.
