HOLLYWOOD ACTORS IN SUCH BLOCKBUSTERS AS AN GLADIATOR
Today recognized as one of the leading Hollywood actors in such blockbusters as A Beautiful Mind and Gladiator, Crowe began his professional career in such Australian-produced films as The Crossing in 1990, following up with a critically praised performance in Proof in 1991.
The following year, worldwide attention was given to what is now recognized as an early trademark, "Crowe intense" performance as a skinhead in Romper Stomper.
It was actress Sharon Stone who later championed Crowe's move to Hollywood, and who appeared opposite the rising star in The Quick and The Dead in 1995, which eventually lead to his breakthrough performance in L.A. Confidential two years later and, finally, an Oscar nominated performance for The Insider in 1999.

What Rumors Have Been Spread About You?
Posted by: Annika Harris 11:30AM, Wednesday March 31st 2010 Filed in: celebs
Rachel Bilson discussed her sinus issues that turned into a pregnancy rumor in Cleo magazine, but that wasn’t the first time a rumor was spread about her. I mean, how can it be? She’s a celebrity. But even before Rachel became famous, folks were lying about her. She also told Cleo: “When I was in primary school, people thought I stuffed my bra, because I was so tiny and I developed a little early. So that was the first untrue rumor.”
I wish I’d had that problem. Instead, the first rumor spread about me was by a teacher at my elementary school.
Is Lindsay Lohan’s Obituary Already In The Works?
Posted by: Annika Harris 1:10PM, Tuesday March 30th 2010 Filed in: celebs
Lindsay Lohan‘s bizarre behavior has provided hours of laughs and head-shaking, but since she’s been virtually unapologetic for her addictions and partying ways, many (myself included) have forgotten that she is on a possible dead-end path of self-destruction. It seems, though, that some news wires realize the fatality of Lindz’s habits. PopEater’s Rob Shuter reports that several sources claim media outlets are preparing Lindsay’s obituary. So morbid.

HOLLYWOOD ACTOR WILL SMITH SCHOOL
A spokesperson for Smith says of the school, renamed the New Village Academy of Calabasas: "Will is leasing the campus for three years, plus he'll cover all costs such as utilities.”The academy will be run privately, and will include pre-kindergarten through grade six."
WORLD TOP CLASS PLAYER IN INTERNATIONAL CRICKET CAREER
Akram is regarded as one of the best fast bowlers in cricket. He holds the world record for most wickets in List A cricket with 881 and is second only to Sri Lankan off-spin bowler, Muttiah Muralitharan in terms of One Day International wickets with 502. He is considered to be one of the founders and perhaps the finest exponent of reverse swing bowling.[1][2][3] The revolutionary nature of reverse swing initially resulted in accusations of ball tampering, although reverse swing has now been accepted as a legitimate feature of the game. Akram's later career was also tarnished with accusations of match fixing, although these remain unproven.
International career
Akram made his Test cricket debut for Pakistan against New Zealand in 1985 and in only his second Test match, he achieved a 10 wicket haul. Like a few other Pakistani cricketers of this period, he was identified at club level and bypassed first-class domestic competition, entering international cricket directly. A few weeks prior to his selection into the Pakistan team, he was an unknown club cricketer who had failed to even make it to his college team. He came to the trials at Qaddafi Stadium Lahore, but for the first two days he did not get a chance to bowl. On the third day he got the chance and the observers around him saw the potential and was spotted by Javed Miandad and as a result of his insisting was it that Akram was given an opportunity to play for Pakistan. Later that season he opened the bowling attack with Imran Khan, who became his teacher at the World Championship of Cricket in Australia.
Records
- In his Test career, Akram took 414 wickets in 104 matches, a Pakistani record, at an average of 23.62 and scored 2,898 runs, at an average of 22.64.[13]
- In One Day Internationals, Akram took 502 wickets in 356 appearances, at an average of 23.52 and scored 3,717 runs, at an average of 16.52.[2]
- Akram was the first bowler in international cricket to take more than 400 wickets in both forms of the game and only Muttiah Muralitharan has since achieved this.[2][13]
- Akram also held the record for the most wickets in Cricket World Cups — a total of 55 in 38 matches. Australia's Glenn McGrath broke the record during the 2007 World Cup, ending with a final tally of 71 from 39 matches.[14] On passing Wasim's record, McGrath said, "Wasim Akram, to me, is one of the greatest bowlers of all time. Left-armer, swung it both ways with the new ball and he was so dangerous with the old ball. To go past him is something I will always remember. Probably the other side of the coin is that if you play long enough, you're going to break records here and there."[15]
- Uniquely, Akram took four hat-tricks in international cricket, two each in Tests matches and One Day Internationals. He is one of only three bowlers to have taken two Test hat-tricks (the others being Hugh Trumble and Jimmy Matthews) and also one of only three bowlers to have taken two ODI hat-tricks (the others being fellow Pakistani Saqlain Mushtaq and Chaminda Vaas of Sri Lanka). Akram's Test hat-tricks are unique, since they were taken in consecutive Test matches in the same series, both against Sri Lanka in the 1998-99 Asian Test Championship. Akram is also one of only two bowlers to have taken both a Test match and One Day International hat-trick (the other being fellow Pakistani Mohammad Sami).[16][17]
- Playing in a Test series against the West Indies at Lahore in 1990-1991, he became one of only six players to have taken four wickets in an over during a Test match. In Akram's case, the feat was not part of a hat-trick, the third ball of the series being a dropped catch, which allowed a single.[18][19]
- Akram has also achieved the highest score by a number eight batsman in Test cricket — 257 not out from 363 balls against Zimbabwe at Sheikhupura. The innings contained 12 sixes which is also a world record for Test cricket.[20][21]
- He also has the third highest number of Man of the Match awards in Test cricket, seventeen.[22]

HRITHIK ROSHAN TWEETS HIS FITNESS TIPS
HRITHIK ROSHAN TWEETS HIS FITNESS TIPS
- Whether 2 lose weight or gain muscle-get good sleep!
- Days when u just can't get yourself to workout, you are free not to. BUT GET URSELF TO THE GYM FIRST and decide THERE!!
- Run / walk (flat n incline) 1min each alternating, totally for max 15mins is good enough! My target-700cals per w/o (cardio+ weights)
- Don't forget legs- large muscle- promotes testosterone which helps increase overall muscle mass. RUN/walk when u can for cardio!
- My fav supplements-vit C, multivitamin, antioxidant, L-glutamine, omega 3 (never 6), creatine (only to bulk 4 short periods),
- Consistency is paramount! Keep changing your w/o everyday. Do something different, anything! Every time u get tired, do one more last set
- Don't forget to stretch/warm up! Don't lift too heavy. Min 8 reps per set. Keep w/o's short n intense 45min max...
Hrithik states that 'Body doesn't grow in the GYM, it grows while you rest! He also adds that one need not splurge on protein supplements, since they are great if they are used in the right amount. Well, this Greek God personified also makes it a point to advice the 'grass root level basic mantra' of all times: Water! He validates this advice stating that it is water which is probably the only alkaline food in our diet!
To get a first hand experience of the same, you can follow Hrithik on twitter @iHrithik. And yes...you can thank us anytime!
AAMIR KHAN IS AN INDIAN FILM ACTOR, DIRECTOR AND P.RODUCER.
Early life
Khan was born in Bandra's Holy Family Hospital, Mumbai, India, to a Muslim Pathan family that has been actively involved in the Indian motion picture industry for several decades. His father, Tahir Hussain, was a film producer while his uncle, Nasir Hussain, was a film producer as well as a director and a actor.
He is a descendant of the Muslim scholar and politician Maulana Abul Kalam Azad and a second cousin to former Chairperson of Rajya Sabha Dr Najma Heptullah.
Personal life
During the years of Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak, Khan married Reena Dutta. They had two children, a son named Junaid and a daughter, Ira. Reena was involved, briefly, in Khan's career when she worked as a producer for Lagaan. In December 2002, Khan filed for divorce, ending the 15-year marriage, with Reena taking the custody of both their children. On 28 December 2005, he married Kiran Rao who had been an assistant director to Ashutosh Gowariker during the filming of Lagaan.
Though nominated many times, Khan does not attend any Indian film award ceremony as he feels "Indian film awards lack credibility". In 2007, Khan was invited to have a wax imitation of himself put on display at Madame Tussauds in London. However, Khan declined stating that, "It's not important to me... people will see my films if they want to. Also, I cannot deal with so many things, I have bandwidth only for that much."
In 2007, Khan lost a custody battle for his younger brother Faisal to their father, Tahir Hussain. His father passed away on 2 February 2010.
In a 2009 interview, Khan states that he tends to take an independent approach to the world of filmmaking, noting that he does not "do different things; I try to do it in a different manner. I think every person should follow his/her dream and try and make it possible to create an ability to achieve it backed by its practicality." He has also indicated that he is more interested in the process of filmmaking than in the end result: "For me, the process is more important, more joyful. I would like to have my entire concentration on the process right from the first step." When asked about his role model, he stated that, "Gandhiji is one person who inspires me!.
Traditionally, Qawwali has been a family business. Rahat's family has an unbroken tradition of performing Qawwali for more than 600 years. Rahat took over the family Qawwali party after Nusrat's death in 1997. (Nusrat had formally nominated Rahat as his successor during his lifetime).
He was born in 1974 in Faisalabad, Pakistan into a family of traditional musicians. The son of Farrukh Fateh Ali Khan, Rahat was trained rigorously by his uncle Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan in the art of classical music and Qawwali, as Nusrat had no son of his own. An extremely gifted child, he started his musical training at a very early age. In an interview, his father Farrukh has spoken of how Rahat would be receiving musical instruction from Nusrat with a pacifier in his mouth.
Under the tutelage of his uncle, his first public performance was at the age of eleven. He can be seen in numerous videos alongside his father and uncle in recordings from the 1980s and 1990s. His voice is high-pitched, unlike the huskier tenor voice of Nusrat. After two decades of captivating performances for international audiences, Rahat is a star in his own right.
In a subordinate role to his uncle Ustad Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan (working in collaboration with Eddie Vedder), Rahat contributed to the soundtrack of the 1995 Hollywood film Dead Man Walking. In 2002, he worked on the soundtrack of Four Feathers in collaboration with the American composer of orchestral and film music, James Horner. In the same year he partnered with The Derek Trucks Band on the song "Makki Madni" in the album Joyful Noise. More recently, his vocals were featured on the soundtrack of Mel Gibson's Apocalypto.
Though Rahat is excited to play with Western musicians and lay down tracks in state-of-the-art studios, he is ultimately most concerned with the art of Qawwali and its message. As he states, "Qawwali music is not only music, it is a message. It was created by Sufis, and when we compose and practice this music, it stays forever. Other music comes and goes, but Qawwali never goes. Once you start listening, it goes straight to your soul, goes to your spirit, and you become more human. I feel that this music is my duty, in order to spread the message of Sufism. My future is that one day I will fulfill the desire of Nusrat to give this message to the world". In another interview, Rahat fondly mentioned how his own children have begun to sing, though he hasn't taught them yet. When asked how they have learnt to sing, his children pointed at Nusrat's picture.

The ‘officially’ single star is been the subject for gossip and speculation and now to ramp things up a little bit she does a little name-dropping.
She apparently Paged Angelina Jolie, and said she’s dreaming of her man, Brad Pitt.
It might not come as a very big surprise as many of the women in America and world over are similar to her in this regard.
According to her, the ideal eye Candy is “Brad Pitt in Fight Club; you can’t get much better than that. I still dream about his body!”
