Crazy Boys

Fans of The Killers were thrown into a state of panic at the band's recent Las Vegas concert, when a palm tree caught on fire. Paris Hilton and her pals Kimberly and Bijou were among the revellers at the event, which was put on to celebrate the one-year anniversary of Body English at the Hard Rock Hotel. But the three front-row VIP seated ladies were among the first to flee their seats when, three-quarters of the way through the show, a hotel guest flicked a cigarette from a balcony in the palm fronds, sparking the blaze. Black smoke engulfed the area, as firefighters quickly put the flames out. Hilton and her pals sought safety inside the hotel. The band continued to play, unaware of the fiasco, as the fans' screams drowned out the sirens. That idiot must have thought 'everything will be alright' for the band members by throwing that ciggy. Or maybe he might be a journalist who feels 'under the gun' to write an interesting review?

Can you mistake my Biology? Nov 14th release..

After Chris was sent home, both Alex and Bren went out for some coffee. Bren felt he had unexpectedly found a good buddy in Alex. For their project task, the 'Staples' company wants to see an innovative way to improve the filing system at work. Alex and Bren created a table with a glass top & two baskets added-on underneath the table to place 2 set of papers at work supposedly for afternoon usage. They never met up with 'Staples' Execs to get further details. Alex, the project manager, told Bren to use yellow pages to search for relevant people to discuss their ideas. Big mistake! Kendra and Craig still can't see eye2eye. Tara, being helpless and dumbstruck on what to do when the other two were lashing out at each other, decided to just munch on her burger with an 'hmmm!' delicious sound. However, they came up with a brilliant idea of a spinning squarish design item with many vertical 'stairs' slots to put in papers,files and stationary. The Staples execs awarded the winning team to Craig's group. Before the boardroom, both Alex & Bren again decided to have a chill out time to spend their last hours together as team members. Both decided to justify what they did right or wrong in the task in a brotherly agreement. During evaluation, Alex defended himself impressively, stating one point of him taking risks was going to Israel for some education. Bren looked like he just dont want to be there anymore, showing no desire to fight back. So he let his buddy advance to final four and got himself eliminated. He admitted that he got tired of being involved in the competition. But he's one funny dude, with his crappy sex jokes and the infamous 'cucumber' advert idea.

Westlife are out with the video to their new single 'You Raise Me Up', from the album 'Face To Face', due out on Oct 31st.

Kylie's topic - Spice helps to stop the spread of breast cancer?

This weekend, The Strokes will be working on a sexually explicit video to go with their upcoming new single, "Juicebox". The band plan to film a live performance in a New York City radio station which then triggers a sexual frenzy among nearby residents! Julian said: "There might be full-frontal nudity. MTV will not play this video because it's so controversial, but it will be groundbreaking." Nudity? Interesting.. The video's producers scoured New York City for cast members "of all genders, ages, ethnicities and sexual preferences who are 'comfortable' with exhibitionistic displays of love, tenderness and affection - to put it very mildly". Oh my! The Strokes have also settled on a release date for their third record, First Impressions of Earth. The third album will come out on January 6, 2006.

Charlotte Church's habit of insulting her pop rivals has gotten her in trouble with Tatu's Lena Katina. After Church claimed the faux lesbian duo "just sound real shite", adding that "one of them's a minger as well" and that 'All About Us' was "awful", Katina responded, "I will murder her. She should come to Moscow and then I will shoot her in the head just like in our video. No one has heard of her in my country - yet where she lives, everyone knows who we are. She must be very careful with her big mouth because bad things can happen to people."
Sooooo...Lena vs Charlotte = The NEW Hilary vs Lindsay?? I think that's a weird combo : a classical-type singer and a fake lesbian rocker. At least Lindsay and Hilary were in the same category. Some people hope they meet, the main reason being - "This Church girl is getting annoying and it would be hilarious to have the paparazzi film the Tatu chick kicking her fat ass." And all the things they said are quite harsh, eh?? Crazy Chick vs Malchick Gal match winner? This 'tissues and issues' may go on for a long time..

Robbie Williams is apparently planning a musical about his life. (what the ?) After seeing the successes of Abba, Queen and Rod Stewart musicals, he thinks he will be able to emulate them. A source revealed, "A musical based on Robbie's colourful career would be dynamite. It's got all the elements of a classic. There's fame, fortune, heartbreak, breakdowns, exile and salvation. You couldn't make it up." Furthermore, Robbie is apparently working with Guy Chambers again. Musical...hmm...firstly telling people that he is 'strong' enough to go solo after takethat, getting 'angels' to love him, knowing 'she's the one' who can make him a 'better man'. Then he wants to feel supreme on the road to mandalay before he comes undone for eternity. Would an idea of a musical production be 'something stupid'?

Keira Knightley lapdance scene in her new movie Domino proved to be quite daunting to shoot - because she had to do it for real-life gang members in front of her mum. The British actress, who plays late bounty hunter Domino Harvey, admits she was nervous when she had to shoot the scene, in which her character defuses a standoff with East Los Angeles gangbangers by giving their leader a lapdance. But the 20 year old insists the tough guys worked hard at making her feel at ease. "They were really great, sweet guys. Very respectful, great to my mum, had good conversations; they'd explain all their different tattoos to her. And it was a hard scene for me to do because it was the first week of filming and, regardless of whether he was in a gang or not, I had to give his guy a lapdance. But they were really, really nice to me." Such a lucky, nice guy.

Charlize Theron's Hollywood success has prompted a baby-naming boom in her native South Africa, with hordes of new parents flocking to give their daughters her moniker. The actress, who grew up on a farm outside Benoni, has recently discovered a large number of South African baby girls now bear her name. She says, "Somebody told me that now every one out of three baby girls born in South Africa is being named Charlize." Teachers and doctors there are gonna have a huge headache in the future.

What is your pastlife?
Your past life diagnosis: You were born somewhere in the territory of modern Egypt around the year 1850 in your last earthly incarnation. Your profession was that of a medic, surgeon or herbalist. -- Huh??? I hate ERs, bloodly doctor surgeon shows..Herbal medication stuff is ok though. Did I walked like an egyptian? This is all just beyond belief.

Littl'ans debut single featuring Pete Doherty 'Their Way', released on October 17th. This cool song is the type you would be singing during a campfire session, those 'kumbayah' style... Reminds me of one U2 video where the band walks around the street with a bunch of people.

For those hardcore 'Lost' fans, read no further. Not one who likes to be told a spoiler meself, but this damn show has some mysterious stuff that seems to be in the news regularly, especially the unique number combinations found scattered in the show. So, I've compiled a few things that might answer some universal queries.

The Numbers Theory: Genetic Mirror Theory II
The infamous set of numbers meaning unveiled??

There is one scene with Walt's missing pic on a milk carton? Wuz up with that?

Interesting tidbit on the numbers as written on Danielle's papers.

4 8 15 16 23 42
4 8 15 16 23 42
4 8 15 16 23 42
4 8 15 16 23 42
4 8 15 16 23 42
4 8 15 16 23 42
4 8 15 16 23 42

8 is 8th number counting in standard reading format. 15 is 15th, 16 is 16th, 23 is 23rd and 42 is 42nd. If only the 4 was a 1 or 7 this would work with all the numbers.

Facts
* The numbers are 4 8 15 16 23 42.
* The numbers total 108 when added together.
* The numbers are used to reset the Countdown Timer inside The Hatch.

Ideas
* They may be coordinates
* They seem to be cursed
