"RA-One" Review:

Here's a movie the Hindi film industry can be proud of. "Ra.One" can be touted as the first Hindi film that blends the elegance of Hollywood with Indian sensibilities.

From the very onset, this classy sci-fi film sets the viewers' adrenalin soaring. It also educates, entertains and eulogises our culture. And, very predictably, from the very beginning you know that the crux of the film is about how good triumphs over evil.

Lady Gaga’s Marilyn Monroe moment

Lady Gaga performed at "A Decade of Difference" concert and channeled her best Marilyn Monroe. Appearing onstage atop a tree house, the superstar rocked the tousled trademark blonde hair, red lips, and over sized glasses of the movie star.
Sitting at the piano in a tan gown, she purred "Happy Birthday" to President Clinton, who is celebrating his 65th, before she belted out "Born This Way." In her tribute to the actress, who sang for President Kennedy, she told the audience, "I always wanted a Marilyn moment -- but didn't want it to involve pills and pearls."
But he was warned: Bill Clinton admitted that when he invited Lady Gaga, she told him her idea. The president, who had a quadruple bypass in 2004, joked, "I got nervous when Gaga said she was planning to have a Marilyn moment and I thought 'I will have a heart attack for my 65th birthday.'"
Instead of a Marilyn moment, what fans got was pure Gaga. The megastar changed the words of "Bad Romance" to "Bill Romance." To the surprise of the president, his wife, and his daughter, the singer proceeded to strip off her dress to reveal a tan body suit underneath -- and serenade the president, who was sitting just a few feet away from the dance diva. But the Lady won over the former First Family, who were caught up in the performance, dancing to the beat.
Before the end of her set, Lady Gaga had one last trick up her sleeve. The quick-change artist added one last shocker: a jacket that made her look topless. As Lady Gaga made it clear, nobody can top that.

Fridtjof Nansen's 150th Birthday

Fridtjof Wedel-Jarlsberg Nansen (10 October 1861 – 13 May 1930) was a Norwegian explorer, scientist, diplomat, humanitarian and Nobel Peace Prize laureate. In his youth a champion skier and ice skater, he led the team that made the first crossing of the Greenland interior in 1888, and won international fame after reaching record northern latitude of 86°14' during his North Pole expedition of 1893–96.

Kim Kardashian admits she and her sisters are “trannies” (about makeup)

I’ve spent way too much looking at photos of Kim Kardashian’s crazy face. Often I just stare at photos of her, trying to pinpoint exactly what is happening, plastic-surgery-wise. There’s a nose job, some eye work, lip injections, Electrolysis to remove facial hair and change her hairline, and, of course, regular Botox injections, but those are the only things that I can really identify using older photos of Kim as a reference. But it’s only in the last year or so that I’ve begun to understand why Kim looks to alien-like most of the time - she wears a crapload of makeup. In particular, eye-makeup, and she must wear the biggest, most drag-queeny fake eyelashes out there, because they look scary. Now Kim (and her sisters) are admitting something that we’ve known for a long time: they’re “trannies” - about makeup, at least.

Liz Hurley & Shane Warne are engaged, he proposed on Friday

YAY!!!!!! As I’ve been discussing for more than a month now, Shane Warne and Liz Hurley are absolutely perfect for each other, and they have decided to make each other the happiest cat-faces in the world! Liz tweeted the above photo, of Liz being lit from the dazzling glare coming off of Shane’s new teeth, with the message, “Thanks for all your congratulations.” What were people congratulating her about? Well, it seems that Friday night, Shane proposed to Liz in St. Andrews, Scotland, where they went on a golfing holiday. Huzzah! Liz and Shane have been together at least ten months (that we know of), including the time they spent having an affair whil Liz was still married to Arun Nayar. Sometimes, when two cat-faces click, they just click:

Happy news for Elizabeth Hurley! The Gossip Girl actress and model, 46, is engaged to her boyfriend of 10 months, Australian cricketer Shane Warne.
Reportedly getting down on bended knee at the Old Course Hotel in Scotland Friday, Warne, 42, is said to have proposed during dinner at the hotel’s Road Hole Restaurant.
Though a hotel source declined to comment on the couple’s dinner, a source confirmed the happy news to Us Weekly.
“They are engaged!” reports the insider.
Flashing a giant sapphire and diamond engagement sparkler Saturday, Hurley Tweeted a photo of the pair prior to their dinner, along with the message “Thanks for all your congratulations.” Warne then copied the message onto his own Twitter page and circulated it to his followers.
It will be the second marriage for both Warne and Hurley, who finalized her divorce from hubby of four years Arun Nayar in June.

Megan Fox’s cat-faced Christmas ads for Armani: not terrible, or still bad?

As you may remember, Rihanna was just named as the replacement-crotch for Armani, taking over from Megan Fox. I welcomed Rihanna because she 1) eats and 2) doesn’t have a cat-face that changes month after month, year after year because of so much surgical and Botox intervention. However, once I got sight of the Rihanna-Armani ads, I was disappointed. They put her in a dumb blonde wiglet, and she looked like crap, which proves to me that whoever is in charge of Armani’s ad campaigns is a total moron. So…with that in mind, check out Armani’s new Beauty 2011 Christmas Collection ads, with Megan Fox. Yes, while Megan was replaced at the spokes crotch of Armani’s underwear and jeans lines, she’s still the official cat-face of Armani beauty products, so these ads are designed to get you to buy Armani makeup for your lady friends for Christmas.

L.A. Reid Explains Why He Dropped Lady Gaga From Island Def Jam

Lady Gaga's meteoric rise to superstardom can be attributed to her catchy songs, shocking costumes, and wild media antics.
But her perseverance is arguably the personality trait that has benefitted her career the most.
This week, L.A. Reid, "X Factor" judge and former president of Island Def Jam, confirmed reports that he stalled Lady Gaga's music pursuits early in her career. Reid signed the "Born This Way" singer to IDJ but released her from her contract within a few months.
Reid explained his dealings with Gaga during an interview with Access Hollywood. "One day this artist came to my office. She played piano. She had white gogo boots all the way up to here, thigh high boots. She sat down at that piano and she played and she sang and when she was done I said, 'You are an amazing artist, and you will change music.' And I signed her. Her name was Lady Gaga," Reid said.
But when Reid heard Gaga's demos three months later, he had a change of heart. "It was a work in progress, and I was having a bad day," Reid said. "I said, ‘You know, I really don't like it. You know, let her have her freedom. Let her have her career. Let her go find it.' It was the worst thing I've ever done."
Lady Gaga cried for an entire day after receiving the news, the artist said during an interview for the MTV special, "Lady Gaga: Inside The Outside."
But she got over it, ultimately landing a record deal with Interscope Records, a company that supported her artistic vision and helped her become one of pop music's biggest stars.
Lady Gaga is one of many of today's household names that were also rejected by major labels before landing big breaks. 50 Cent, Alicia Keys, and Beyoncé were also met with similar setbacks.
Alicia Keys had been signed to Columbia Records for two years before her recording contract was terminated and she pursued other options.

This Halloween, Watch for Angry Birds

Lock your doors! Shut your windows! Hide your birdseed! This Halloween, the Angry Birds are coming for you! The makers of the hit videogame have launched a line of costumes based on the game's cranky characters. There are outfits for babies, kids, and adults. The baby costumes are cute and relatively inexpensive at around $25. Adults who wish to go as an Angry Bird will have to surrender $49.99 plus shipping, as well as a sizable chunk of their dignity.
Online interest in Angry Birds costumes is already soaring, despite the spooky night being a month away. Over the past 24 hours, Web searches on "angry birds costume" jumped 26%, while related queries on "angry birds halloween costume" and "angry birds costume for sale" tweeted their way to triple-digit gains.
This isn't the first time the Angry Birds franchise has extended its considerable reach. There have been T-shirts, toys, spin-offs, and more. Heck, there have even been unofficial Angry Birds birthday cakes. Clearly, the game inspires a lot of passion.
For those who have been living in a cave without their iPhone, the game is a physics-based puzzler in which the player launches angry birds at various structures in an attempt to knock them over and squash the nefarious pigs. The game has been a tremendous hit on multiple platforms, including Android and Apple's iOS. The game, despite no longer being the new bird on the block, is still tremendously popular in Yahoo! Search, currently ranking in our top 500 overall terms.

Where Celebrities Go to Escape It All

Celebrity getaways are often in luxe locales, such as Seinfeld's mansion in Telluride, CO.

In this paparazzi age, celebrities aren’t even close to safe when they leave Hollywood for vacations. Anyone with an Internet connection or anyone who has waited on a supermarket checkout line is bombarded with images of stars romping in the waves on tropical shores, with captions judging their levels of fitness... or lack thereof.

Hollywood types like to vacation in Malibu, but the following homes are located all over the place—the Caribbean, ski destinations, the downeast coast of Maine, and upstate New York. Oh, and some of them are, in fact, in Malibu.

Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell
Location: 0 Broad Beach Rd, Malibu, CA
Value: $14.75 million
Bedrooms / Baths: 4 / 5
Square Footage: 4,300

This oceanfront property saw extensive rennovation in 2005.

Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell have previously offered their Balinese-styled getaway home on the celebrity-studded Broad Beach for rent in the summers for $95,000 a month, and now it’s it's for sale , or for rent at a reduced rental price of $80,000. Reduced or not, that's still a lot of scratch. What would the renter or purchaser get for all that? The home includes three suites (the master bath has a Chinese onyx spa-inspired bath), a media room, a designer kitchen, plus a guest house with meditation or guest room, and a workout room.

9 things guys say should never be fake about you

Guys want genuine women in their lives. They want to know who you are and what you’re about right from the start. Women don’t want their guy to change mid-relationship, and guys want the same thing from a partner. Knowing this, I’ve compiled a list of the top nine things that my male listeners and readers feel should never, ever be fake about you:

1. Sharing your man’s interests
Often, women will feign interest in activities that they would never normally do in order to get to the first date with a man and to keep things moving along once they’re seeing each other. Don’t go crazy for his favorite football team, develop a love of white water rafting or suddenly crave Ethiopian food if those things simply are not true to your character. He will eventually see through it or be greatly disappointed when he didn’t get the outdoorsy woman that he always dreamed of once you grow tired of it. A man would rather you admit early on that you’d try something new just for his sake than to act like you absolutely love something that you have totally hated all your life.

Can You Spot the Hidden Images in These Famous Logos?

You’ve seen these famous logos countless times on billboards, passing by on trucks, and at the grocery store, but there is more to them than meets the eye. If you take a closer look, you will find that these recognized logos have hidden images and messages. Check out these inventive designs that cleverly use white space and optical illusions to display subliminal messages.

FedEx

This logo appears to be very simple, but if you look at the white space between the "E" and "x" in “Ex," you'll find it is more complex than you thought. Can you spot the arrow?


Tostitos

These popular party chips are a staple at many backyard BBQs, but chances are, you've never noticed the hidden celebration scene concealed within the letters. The second and third "t’s" are sharing a chip over an "i" that is dotted with a salsa bowl. Yum!

Le Tour de France

Named the world's most famous and prestigious cycling race, bike-lovers and non-cyclists alike are familiar with the event's emblem. However, you might be missing out on the logo's most interesting aspect. After careful examination, you'll notice an image of a person riding a bicycle; the yellow circle is the front wheel and the r is the body.

It's A Girl For '30 Rock's' Tina Fey & Husband Jeff Richmond

Tina Fey has welcomed a new addition to the family -- another baby girl.

The "30 Rock" star and her husband, Jeffrey Richmond, welcomed baby Penelope Athena on Wednesday, the actress' rep confirmed to Access Hollywood.

Penelope Athena is the couple's second daughter. Their first child, Alice, is 5.

It was back in April, while appearing on "The Oprah Winfrey Show," that Tina first confirmed she was pregnant.

The new baby will give husband Jeff a second chance at diaper duty.

In GQ's May issue, the "Bossypants" author said her husband was good at everything to do with Alice, everything but diaper duty.

"My husband was really good about helping out. The problem was diapers. He never got past the poop," Tina previously told the mag. "He would do these [gagging noise] 'Oh God, I'm gonna vomit.' Never got over it."

The weird way I met someone

Ask most men and women how they meet the people they date, and you’ll probably hear answers like “through friends,” “online,” “at a party,” or even “my mom set us up; she has better taste than I thought!” Some people, however, find romance in much more surprising places — and their stories are testament to the fact that if you’re looking for love (keeping common sense and safety in mind, of course!), you should always keep your eyes peeled. Don’t believe us? Check out how these readers ended up clinching a date.


While idling on the freeway of love
“I was stuck in rush hour traffic. There was a new silver Mustang in the lane next to me. Mustang drivers always notice other Mustang drivers, so I pulled up next to him and slowed down so I could get a good look, flashed him a flirty smile, and revved my engine a little. After eight miles of flirting in stop-and-go traffic, he called out, asking whether I would like his number. We dated for three months until I realized the only thing we had in common was our love for our Mustangs. But it sure was fun while it lasted!”

Get Out of Hair! Rihanna Spends $23,000 a Week on Stylist

Being a style maven isn't easy. Since 2008's Good Girl Gone Bad album release, Rihanna has chopped her locks into a bob, a mohawk, a half-shaved pompadour, a mushroom with blond streaks and most recently, she's been rocking a steady stream of various red wigs - with one in particular giving her the unflattering nickname of Sideshow Bob of The Simpsons fame.

Just listing some of her hair changes makes my scalp itch. As the saying goes,beauty is pain and in the case of Rihanna, it's not only her scalp that may be in pain, but also her wallet. Ursula Stephen, a top celebrity stylist, who has worked with RiRi since the beginning of her career, charges the style star about $3,200 a day, which totals out to about $23,000 a week, according to the Daily Mail. According to a member of her entourage, in additon to giving Rihanna hairstyles that keeps her name a buzz, she's also become a close friend of hers, which could be another reason why she may not be willing to let go of the expensive hairdresser. "Rihanna likes to pioneer new styles but it's costing her a fotune. Ursula is a close confidant and they are together all the time."

Maybe one day Rihanna can do like us regular folk and learn to DIY her looks. On the bright side, at least she doesn't have a $1 million collection of wigs (ahem, Beyonce) and hasn't said she may need to start using Rogaine (ahem, Lady Gaga).
