Paul McCartney

The history of The Beatles may have been more extraordinary had they not disbanded but it's something we'll never know but it's come to light from a latest radio interview with Paul McCartney that John lennon was the reason behind the band parting ways for good. McCartney was being interviewed by radio host Geoff Lloyd on Absolute Radio this week.

The Beatles hung up their boots back in 1970 after the recording of "Let It Be" and the famous four played their last concert at Apple Records headquarters in London in 1969. McCartney talking of the event said: “Basically me, George [Harrison] and Ringo [Starr] said ‘Does this have to be final, could we do a couple of gigs or can we think about this tomorrow?’, but John was off with Yoko and he was saying ‘No, no, it’s great, I feel a release’ and all that.” “So that was kind of final,” McCartney added.

So certainly a stark message to anybody still in doubt over reason behind the demise of the band at the turn of the 1970's.

A criminal has confessed to authorities that he was the culprit behind the 1994 robbery and shooting of Tupac Shakur that triggered the bloody rivalry that ultimately led to the rapper's murder two years later in 1996. The man's name is Dexter Isaac, who is now serving a life imprisonment for murder and he has claimed to website allhiphop.com that he robbed the rapper outside the Quad Studio in Manhattan in November 1994 on the orders of hip hop management mogul James "Jimmy Henchman" Rosemond.

He says that Rosemond, the CEO of Czar Entertainment who manages Mike Tyson and Sean Kingston, gave him $2,500 "plus all the jewelry" except for one ring the CEO wanted for his girlfriend. The CEO confessed to authorities last month after a fugitive warrant was issued for his arrest in relation to federal cocaine distribution charges.

So a shocking development in the murder case of Tupac Shakur and with this evidence authorities may be able to come across more in the coming future.

Joss Stone

It's been reported that two men have been arrested regarding a murder plot revolved around British pop singer Joss Stone. The police have confirmed to BBC news that the two men are now being held in custody near Joss Stone's home in Devon, England.

The men, aged 30 and 33, are held by police as they are in suspicion of a plan to kill and rob the singer.

What prompted the police was a suspicious looking vehicle which was spotted in the Cullompton area and had been held by the law for "possession of offensive weapons and being equipped to steal." After they had been arrested, they were found to be holding swords, forensic-style overalls and drawn up plans of Stone's house and a body bag. Police added that the singer is aware of the arrests, although it is not known if she was home at the time they were made.

So a harrowing unearthed story found by the police and the singer will currently be distressed from the event.

Witnesses told UK paper that the "Lord of the Rings"/"Game of Thrones" actor was with modern, April Summers and smoking outside a bar when a passerby made obscene comments towards her and then Bean in turn, chased the heccler down a street. The perpetrator returned to the scene later that evening, spied Bean and attacked him. It's reported he was punched in the face and then stabbed in the arm with broken glass.

Gene Simmons

Gene Simmons is best known for being one of the faces of Kiss but maybe what he is just as well known for is bragging how many women he's bedded in his time (estimating in the region of 4,000). However one woman has had enough of his sexual conquest flaunting and that is the woman he lives with, Actress Shannon Tweed.

The pair made an appearance on the today show with Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb, and Simmons and Tweed were visibly rattled, Tweed fuming and Simmons, who is usually a dab hand at one liners, pretty quiet relatively. It's said the unrest stems from a picture Tweed saw of Simmons with two women on his arm. On Gene's show, "Gene Simmons Family Jewels," shown on "Today," she states that she's done and on their appearance on the today show, Tweed was pretty icy toward Simmons and didn't let up.

So it looks like Gene's marriage is on the rocks and his wildman antics have backfired disastrously.

Taylor Momsen

She's stoked up controversy before with her outspoken opinions and punk rock demeanour but she raised the bar another big notch with her latest public appearance at the Download Festival at Donington Park in Leicestershire, with a very racy and shocking outfit.

The teenager donned a very loose-fitting top that exposed her breasts partially but showed consideration for onlookers by planting duct tape on her nipples to keep them covered! It definitely appeared to be a self made top as the sleeves looked to have been removed and the neck slashed. The T-Shirt was originally conceived by the band Sonic Youth and held the slogan "Confusion is Sex. Conquest For Death"

Taylor was at the event to perform with her band and did it before a rain soaked but responsive crowd.

Isla Fisher

Celebrity mother and wife of acclaimed comedian Sacha Baron-Cohen turned heads at the Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic event at Governor’s Island, New York, with a floral frock and orange shoes and a bag to match her fiery orange locks. The ensemble was definitely chosen with her vivid hair colour in mind and the head to toe outfit really complimented it.

The weather at the event was blustery as can be seen in other pictures of the star at the show and the weather has been up and down in recent weeks with it being 100 degrees one day and 60 degrees and raining the next day. The wind on the day was certainly unable to be ignored as you can see her having to withstand it on other photos.

Nevertheless, even in motherhood it goes to show that hollywood stars can still look as good as they ever have.

Jessica Simpson

In Touch, a Hollywood celebrity magazine published weekly, has reported that father of Jessica Simpson, Joe Simpson, is undecided whether he would want his daughter getting married to the former NFL player Eric Johnson.

It had initially been reported that the father of the famous hollywood actress had given his blessing regarding the event but now has had second thoughts because of the dependency it is alleged that the ex football player is placing on Jessica. He is also concerned as she is tending to be taking care of all finances as Eric Johnson is currently unemployed.

So there could be some unrest within the Simpson camp because of this hardship.
