MJ Death: Dr. Murray feels strongly innocent

MJ-Dr-Murray
MJ Death: Dr. Murray feels strongly innocent - Dr. Murray Will NEVER Cop a Plea in MJ Death: Sources directly connected to Dr. Conrad Murray, the Doc will not accept any plea bargain from the L.A. County District Attorney in the Michael Jackson manslaughter case.

We're told Dr. Murray feels so strongly about his innocence, even a plea with no jail time would be out of the question.

Fact is ... Dr. Murray shouldn't hold his breath, because no plea bargain has been offered and sources tell us the D.A. will not offer one.

As for Murray's defense ... we're told the centerpiece revolves around the fact that only two people were in the room around the time MJ died, and Murray insists he did not administer the fatal dose of Propofol.

The operating theory of Murray's lawyers -- when the Doc left to go to the bathroom, a frustrated MJ woke up and administered the fatal dose himself in a desperate attempt to get some sleep.

Who is Most Hated by Jackie Kennedy after Marilyn Monroe: Elizabeth Taylor

Jackie-Kennedy-vs-Liz-Taylor
Who is most hated by Jackie Kennedy after Marilyn Monroe? The answer is Elizabeth Taylor. Late actress Elizabeth Taylor had invited a jealous wrath of Jackie Kennedy, who ­accused her of having an affair with her husband and the then US president John F. Kennedy. The astonishing details of their bitter feud have been revealed in Taylor's private ­diaries, which she maintained since childhood days.

"When they are edited and ­published, as she requested, they will amaze fans and historians," express.co.uk quoted one of the late screen icon's closest friends as saying.

A number of entries, at the time Kennedy was planning his 1960 presidential ­campaign, refer to several private meetings with "Jack" at his bungalow at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

Marilyn Monroe
"She was married to Eddie Fisher, her fourth husband, at the time. And she was thrilled to be invited to meet Kennedy during one of his campaign fund-raising visits to ­California," said the friend.

Both of them hit off so well that John had invited her to see him a number of times, however, Taylor had a tough time convincing his wife Jackie that her relationship with John was nothing more than just friendship.

"Liz swore her relationship with Kennedy never went beyond friendship, but Jackie was convinced they had an ­affair and said some vicious things about Elizabeth that got back to her," the friend said.

Another stunning revelations included that Taylor's greatest love, Richard Burton, resorted to physical violence several times during their relationship.

Of the meeting, Marie said, “Those eyes…They were so beautiful just as everyone says.”

Osmond also went on to praise Elizabeth Taylor’s humanitarian efforts saying, “She showed so much courage in her fight against AIDS. She was one of the first celebrities to take up that cause, and I respect her so much for that.”

Marie Osmond admired Elizabeth Taylor so much, that she even used violet colored eyes for her doll collection.

Marie Osmond recalled to the Las Vegas Sun about the time she met Elizabeth Taylor.

The setting was an event at the White House, while Ronald Reagan was president. Taylor (who died Wednesday at the age of 79) was there with her husband at the time, then-Sen. John Warner, R-Virginia.

Osmond, talking after she and her brother Donny finished their 500th show at the Flamingo in Las Vegas, remembered her face-to-face meeting with the legendary film beauty.

"Those eyes," Osmond said. "They were so beautiful, just as everyone says.”

Taylor's trademark violet eyes inspired Osmond to create eyes that color for her doll collection.

Osmond called Taylor "an inspiration. She showed so much courage in her fight against AIDS. She was one of the first celebrities to take up that cause, and I respect her so much for that.”

Dixie Chicks: Natalie Maines Releases New Song "God Only Knows"

Dixie Chicks, Natalie Maines
Dixie Chicks fans have waited nearly five years – since 2006's Grammy-winning album "Taking the Long Way" – to hear new recorded material from Natalie Maines. Now, she's singing a new tune. Actually, the song isn't so new: It's a cover of the Beach Boys's classic "God Only Knows" – recorded by Maines, 36, for the series finale of HBO's Big Love, set to air March 20.

The Dixie Chicks have been off the radar for a while, which is all the more reason to catch "Shut Up & Sing" (8 p.m. Saturday, Country Music Television), the documentary that trails the country darlings as they recover from the backlash that followed their onstage slam of President George W. Bush and their subsequent album. The criticism may have stung, but it did lead to an armful of Grammys and an instant country classic, "Not Ready to Make Nice."

Dixie Chicks, Natalie Maines
The Dixie Chicks are an American alternative country band which has also successfully crossed over into other genres. The band is composed of founding members (and sisters) Martie Erwin Maguire and Emily Erwin Robison, and lead singer Natalie Maines. The band formed in 1989 in Dallas, Texas and was originally composed of four women performing bluegrass and country music, busking and touring the bluegrass festival circuits and small venues for six years without attracting a major label. After the departure of one bandmate, the replacement of their lead singer, and a slight change in their repertoire, the Dixie Chicks achieved country music and pop success, beginning in 1998 with hit songs including "Wide Open Spaces", "Cowboy Take Me Away", and "Long Time Gone". The women also became well-known for their independent spirit and controversial comments on subjects such as war and politics.

During a London concert ten days before the 2003 invasion of Iraq, lead vocalist Maines said, "we don't want this war, this violence, and we're ashamed that the President of the United States (George W. Bush) is from Texas" (the Dixie Chicks' home state). The statement offended many people, who thought it rude and unpatriotic, and the ensuing controversy cost the band half of their concert audience attendance in the United States and led to accusations of the three women being "un-American", as well as hate mail, a death threat, and the public destruction of their albums in protest.

As of 2009, they have won 13 Grammy Awards, with 5 of them earned in 2007 including the coveted Grammy Award for Album of the Year for Taking the Long Way. As of July 2010, with 30.5 million certified albums, and sales of 26,733,000 albums in the U.S., they have become the top selling all-female band in the U.S. during the Nielsen SoundScan era.

The Manchurian Candidate: Frank Sinatra vs Denzel Washington Version

The Manchurian Candidate (1962) is director-producer John Frankenheimer's prophetically tragic, chilling, brilliant, blackish (film-noirish) Cold War thriller about brain-washing, conspiracy, the dangers of international Communism, McCarthyism, assassination, and political intrigue. Laurence Harvey is brilliant as a brainwashed Korean war hero who has been programmed as a Soviet sleeper/mole agent to assassinate a Presidential candidate.

The 1962 film the Manchurian Candidate is a certified classic. The political thriller was so good that it earned the best tribute it could get. A remake. In 2004, Denzel Washington took on the role originally played by Frank Sintra.

There was of course some updating in the remake, some new tweets, and lots of color. But the original black and white, still holds it own. So which one is better and what has been said in comparing the two films?Most film fans who were familiar with the original political thriller tend to side with the 1962 version. But under the direction of Johnathan Demme with a cast that included along side Denzel the likes of Meryl Streep and Liev Schreilber, they do a fabulous job. It’s a strong piece of cinema that comes as a fresher, bright version of the dark and foreboding original.

The Manchurian Candidate (1959), by Richard Condon, is a political thriller novel about the son of a prominent US political family who has been brainwashed into being an unwitting assassin for the Communist Party.

Mildred Pierce: a wig was custom built for Evan Rachel Wood's crotch

The "True Blood" star, Evan Rachel Wood, explained at a recent NY press event, she slated to go full frontal in the HBO miniseries "Mildred Pierce". "Let’s just say, I had to wear a wig because it was in the 30s, and everything had to look like it was in the 30s."

Evan Rachel Wood is getting all sorts of buzz for a special wig she had to rock for an upcoming HBO project (a wig that was custom built for her crotch). According to Wood, her co-star Kate Winslet encouraged her to do it -- “I looked at Kate and she was like, ‘You’ve got to do it. Trust me, it’s so brave. Put a merkin on and you’ll be fine.”

"She coached me through my first nude scene," Wood told E! News at Monday evening's premiere. "I mean, she's done it all. She was literally next to the camera going.


Winslet also told the actress to cover up as much as possible: "I looked at Kate and she was like, 'You've got to do it. Trust me, it's so brave,'" Wood said in an interview with Fancast.com. "'Put a merkin on and you'll be fine.'" (A merkin is a pubic wig.)

The 'Titanic' star's final piece of advice? "You keep the room as empty as possible," Winslet told Wood. "Just kind of being there for her, really, and letting her know there was someone to hold her hand and throw a robe over her at the right moment...made her feel better."
