Read more!Kareena: I always get nervous working with Salman
Kareena Kapoor, who's been on a high since the release of Jab We Met, finally started shooting a new film "Main Aur Mrs. Khanna" with Salman Khan. She says the idea of working with her "sister's co-star" makes her nervous.
"Although we've done Priyadarshan's Kyon Ki... before, I always get nervous working with Salman. He was my sister's hero long before we were paired together. And now to be doing a film with him," Kareena told IANS.
Kareena started shooting on Tuesday at Film City at the outskirts of Mumbai.
Kareena and Salman were expected to serenade to immortality in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Bajirao Mastani, but the film never happened.
She was also signed for Salman's home production My Punjabi Nikaah. That never happened either.
Kareena chuckles in disbelief.
"Main Aur Mrs Khanna is an intensely romantic film. I don't think Salman has done a pure love story like this before. Neither have I. Sohail is also in the film."
Interestingly, this is the first time in her distinguished career that Kareena will be working with a debutant director Prem Soni.
"He's very talented. It wouldn't matter even if he wasn't - I'm doing it for Salman," said Kareena emotionally.

Tiger Temple Thailand












There aren’t many places in the world where you can touch a fully-grown tiger, but the monks at Thailand’s Tiger Temple allow you to get up close and personal with their domesticated brood of big cats
Advertise On Travelhappy - Click Here!
Just a couple of hours’ drive outside Bangkok in the Kanchanaburi province, not far from the world famous Bridge Over The River Kwai, lies the Tiger Temple of Thailand, formally known as Wat Pa Luangta Bua Yannasampanno. Since 1999, the monks here have taken care of tigers which have been rescued from poachers in the nearby Thai-Burmese border jungle - and to date they have 17 fully grown tigers and tiger cubs living within the temple grounds. Every afternoon, the tigers are let out of their cages and taken down to a quarry which has a natural pool for them to bathe and play in. Visitors can walk down into the quarry and see the tigers from only a few feet away - there’s a single rope between you and them. Most of the tigers simply sit stretched out in the sun - they are nocturnal creatures so they laze around during the day. Some of the younger tigers are pretty frisky however - on both occasions I’ve been to the temple, they’ve been busy playing in the pond - “playing” in this case meaning “whacking each other in the face with their paws”. (See the photo gallery to see what I mean).
It’s just as well most of the tigers prefer to stay stationary - if they start moving around, things can become a little tense on the other side of the rope. Some of these tigers are huge, and to be in such close proximity to them is both awe-inspiring and a little scary. Their beauty is mesmerising though. I was surprised at just how long I was content to simply sit and stare at them, take some photos, and then stare at them again. The first time we went there it was during the rainy season and it we saw the tigers in torrential rain - but it didn’t matter at all.
Touching A Tiger
Presiding over the tigers is the Abbot Phra Acharn Phoosit Khantidharo and a bunch of blue-shirted volunteers. The volunteers are mainly Thai but there’s also a couple of westerners too, who keep grab hold of the tigers’ collars if they start moving towards the boundary rope. They behave with well-deserved respect to the tigers, and they also take visitors in one by one to have their photo taken with a tiger. I have to confess I didn’t do this - I get a bit funny about petting wild animals. However, both my parents and my girlfriend did do it and it was an anxious few moments for me while I watched them being led in and out of the tigers’ area. There’s a reason that the collective noun is an ambush of tigers, y’know… They were all quite visibly moved by the experience. The Abott will sometimes intervene and get the tiger to rest its head in the lap of the visitor waiting for their photo to be taken - an unforgettable experience I’d imagine.
The temple has big plans for extending their sanctuary, with the ultimate aim of providing an area where the tigers can live naturally pretty much all the time, rather than having to be locked up in cages. A booklet explaining these ambitious plans is provided on entry. While the tigers are the stars of the temple, there are numerous other animals also wandering the grounds, such as boar and goats, and the monks care for these creatures as well.

Lekha Washington Bowled over by King Khan

Lekha Washington Bowled over by King Khan
Not only the regional cricketers but aspiring actors and vee-jays are also getting benefited by the cricket revolution brought about in the country by the shortened form of cricket.
Being a field anchor for Sony Max in the Indian Premier League has certainly given the cute and stunning former SS music vee-jay Lekha Washington to get the attention of the media players in Bollywood but also gave her a chance to meet and interact with some of greatest cricket players like Shane Warne, Sanath Jayasuuya, Adam Gilchrist etc.
The reason why Lekha will always consider herself lucky to be the field host for SonyMax will be due to the reason that in this first session of the IPL itself, she was presented with a chance to meet up and talk with none other than the badshah of Bollywood Shah Rukh Khan.
The upcoming actress will soon be seen in the film 'Jeyam Kondaan' and is also said to have come in focus of the film makers in Bollywood.
She herself has come out with the news that discussions are going on with some film makers but nothing has been finalized.
Although the actress has admitted that she was not able to talk much with Shah Rukh, simply due to the fact seeing the King Khan standing in front of her made her totally dumbstruck and she forgot what she was supposed to talk with him, who knows this chance meeting with the king of Bollywood may prove out to be a lucky star that will shine in the future for Lekha.

SRK (Ganguly and I are not fighting)

Shah Rukh Khan has put to rest all rumours about a rift between Kolkata Knight Riders captain Saurav Ganguly, and himself.
"Saurav and I are good friends. There is no problem between Saurav, John [Buchanan, coach for the Knight Riders] and me," he says. "Certain sections of the press have misquoted me on this. I do not think that I need to justify that we are a team. I am too old in this business of winning and losing. I do not think that I need someone coming and telling me about anti-corruption after 40 days into the tournament. I own the Knight Riders and I have paid them to win. Now, if they are losing, does that mean that I am paying them to lose?
"There is more to life than just winning. I read somwhere that I was kicking chairs. I have seen too many victories and losses, and I'm too old in this game to react like this," he continues. "When we won, it was said 'Prince and King ruled.' Now that we are not doing well, they assume that somthing must me wrong between Saurav and me. I would like to clarify that nothing is wrong. Saurav has sent me messages asking me to clarify to all that we are friends. We are not fighting, the team is not going to be sold. John is not angry with Saurav. Saurav is not angry with me. I am not kicking chairs. There are no issues. Yes, I do have certian issues with the IPL on the code of conduct. That needs to be clarified. Only then will I go to the matches." source

INFLATION...highest in which country ??

Nations with highest inflation
The Indian people and the government are both quaking with fear with inflation hovering at around 8%. The people can barely make two ends meet with prices soaring, and the government knows that if prices don't fall, the government will.
But India is not the only nation grappling with rising inflation. The entire world is. So which are the nations with highest inflation rates? Read on. . .
. Zimbabwe: 355,000%!
The inflation in Zimbabwe for the month of March 2008 rose to 355,000%! Yes, 355,000 per cent! It more than doubled from the February figure of 165,000%.
Economists say that it is a miracle that the Zimbabwean economy is still surviving and prices have been rising to unprecedented proportions. Inflation surged between February and March following the sudden rise in money supply that flooded the economy to finance the 2008 elections. Apart from this food and non-alcoholic beverages continued to drive up inflation.
Almost 80% of the nation is unemployed. The Zimbabwean central bank has introduced $500 million bearer cheques (or currency notes) for the public, and $5 billion, $25 billion, $50 billion agro-cheques for farmers. Just last fortnight the nation had introduced $250 million bearer cheques.
A sausage sandwich sells for Zimbabwean $50 million. A 15-kg bag of potatoes cost Zimbabwean $260 million. But then, Zimbabwean $50 million is roughly equal to US$ 1!

Read more!Lindsay Lohan Lesbian Kiss Photos With Samantha Ronson in Cannes Emerge (Picture)

With Lindsay Lohan's kid sister Ali Lohan all set to begin her ride down the road of being managed by White Oprah LiLo has been getting more attention and scrutiny and much of it seems to be centered on her sexuality. She seems attached at the hip with deejay Samantha Ronson and there are all sorts of reports claiming that the pair are involved in a lesbian relationship. Will this help Ali Lohan and mom Dina's reality TV show?
The pair (mom and Ali) came out recently and proclaimed that Lindsay Lohan was not gay (Seinfeld reference - not that there is anything wrong with that) and they sounded ridiculous as they "defended" LiLo from the stories that claimed there was a relationship. Shouldn't sis Ali and mom support Lindsay?
***
Now a report from the UK Daily Mail claims that Lindsay and Samantha were caught kissing in Cannes on a boat. The lesbian kiss was caught on film and the newspaper has several photos of the couple as they celebrated and let it all hang out on P Diddy’s party yacht.
The Mail has the snaps here. Lohan has been all over the map sexually and has had all sorts of wild photos leaks that included Nick Lachey's gal Vanessa Minillo and LiLo playfully posing and a Calum Best sex tape allegation. Will Lindsay come out or is she just playing around?

Read more!Alanis Morissette Pregnant, But Father Not Known

The rumor mills are buzzing with news that Alanis Morissette is pregnant. But is there any truth to the rumors — and who is the father? We haven’t seen Alanis Morissette attached to anyone as of late, so we’ll have to watch the baby news as it develops.
Alanis Morissette performed on this morning’s Today show, promoting her new album “Flavors of Entanglement,” that’s set for a June 10 U.S. release. Alanis Morissette didn’t appear pregnant during the morning performance, but her pregnancy could be in the early stages. Check out the Today show picture of Alanis Morissette and make the call if she’s pregnant -
Canadian-born rocker Alanis Morissette is reportedly pregnant with her first child! Now, the big question is, who be the baby daddy! Maury, we may need your services.
Alanis, 33, and actor Ryan Reynolds broke off their engagement in February of 2007, and he's now engaged to Scarlett Johansson, so he can't be the dad. Right? Oh wouldn't that make for an interesting triangle.
It might be a situation like Minnie Driver's - she's staying "mum" on her baby daddy too.
Congrats Alanis!

Read more!Aamir's apology to SRK
At last, Mr. Perfectionist has dropped his spears down posting his sincere apologies for his offensive act towards Shahrukh in which he mentioned in his blog, the name of Shahrukh as one of his dog's name at Panchagani. But when the media launched its onslaughts against Aamir, he found it better to apologise rather than extending the issue further to prevent the further degradation of his image.
At the music launch function of his new film 'Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na' he asked for forgiveness if the blog hurt any of his or Shahrukh's fans saying that it was not directed to offend anyone and that it was just projected in good humour. The fans of Shahrukh as well as Aamir were shocked beyond measure to read the contents of the Blog and are highly unhappy with Aamir's filthy approach towards humour.
It can be assumed as a publicity stunt which in turn brought SRK in limelight more than Aamir himself who is instead pushed towards derogatory criticism by both media and public. Hats off to King Khan who proved to be a real media figure by not responding upon the unhealthy message showing a real sportsman spirit........ Well... the IPL has taught something of great assistance to him. The actor who was known well for his mocking acts upon other stars (but of course whose comments have never been so seriously offensive) has surprised the media by this unusual act.
Finally the whole matter is settled now by Aamir himself with his public apology. The question which still lurks in the air is that was Aamir actually in a light mood while writing the Blog or was he just trying to imitate the art of mocking (which essentially belongs to King Khan) and failed to do so. Anyway, Aamir will learn that walking in someone else's shoes is not so easy...

David Cook voted 'American Idol' winner

Yes, those were the classic words to Michael Jackson's legendary "Billie Jean" coming out of the mouth of American Idol finalist David Cook as we moved into the battle of the top 10. However, it was a version stripped bare of the original recording's mammoth bass line and glossy production. It was easily the most surprising performance of the night, and, I would expect, it generated a new appreciation for the versatility of the song "Billie Jean."
The inspiration for this Michael Jackson cover? It's a version of "Billie Jean" by Chris Cornell, former leader of grunge legends Soundgarden and currently lead vocalist for Audioslave. His take on "Billie Jean" is featured on the solo album Carry On which was released less than a year ago in June 2007. Critical comments on the Cornell cover of "Billie Jean" ranged widely from those who felt that it was a fascinating way to interpret the song to others who were much less kind. The American Idol judges were amazed and impressed by David Cook's presentation of a performance of "Billie Jean" inspired by Chris Cornell. What do you think? Compare the performances side by side below.

Read more!Jessica Alba and Cash Warren Got Married!

Mom-to-be Jessica Alba and her longtime boyfriend Cash Warren became husband and wife on Monday, People.com reported citing a close source to the couple.
The couple, who met on the set of "Fantastic Four" in 2004, exchanged vows during a low-key ceremony in a Beverly Hills courthouse.
"She looked happy but nervous," the source said.
The pair kept so mum about the whole thing that even her brother, Josh Alba, was apparently caught off-guard. When reached by Us Weekly magazine with the news, he responded: "My sister!? I'm going to have to call her!"
Although Alba, 27, and Warren, 31, hit some rough patches in their relationship, and reportedly broke up last summer, Alba recently referred to Warren in an interview that he is her soul-mate. The two are expecting their first child together, a baby girl, in late spring/early summer.
Soon after announcing the pregnancy, Alba's publicist confirmed the "Good Luck Chuck" star has also gotten engaged after she was spotted spotted flashing an engagement ring during the Christmas holiday.
In an April interview, Alba admitted she didn't exactly plan her pregnancy but said she was "excited" for motherhood. "I think it's the best thing in the world that could have ever happened," she said. "I knew I wanted a baby before I was 31 and it just kind of happened."
Alba was previously engaged to her "Dark Angel" co-star Michael Weatherly, who is 12-years her senior but the two split in 2003..

Pete Wentz Ashlee Simpson Married: Pete Wentz Ashlee Simpson Wedding

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz were married in a private Saturday evening ceremony, before 150 guests, at the Los Angeles-area home of the bride’s father (Joe Simpson), a rep for the couple has confirmed.
“We’re delighted to confirm that Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson were married this evening in front of family and close friends,” a spokesperson for the couple tells People Magazine.
Twenty-three year old Ashlee, who is reportedly expecting the couple’s first child, went glam as she exchanged “I Do’s” with Pete, twenty-eight. The “Bittersweet” bride wore a wedding gown by Monique Lhuillier; accessorizing the stunning frock with a diamond necklace and earrings by Neil Lane.
Here’s to hoping Pete and Ashlee share many wonderful years together. Congrats!
______________________________________________________________________________________
Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz were married Saturday evening in an intimate ceremony, their spokesperson tells PEOPLE exclusively.
"We're delighted to confirm that Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson were married this evening in front of family and close friends," said the spokesperson.
Simpson, 23, wore an ivory lace wedding gown by Monique Lhuillier and jewels by William Noble as she and Wentz, 28, exchanged vows in front of 150 guests at her parents' Los Angeles area home.
Dad Joe Simpson performed the non-denominational ceremony, while sister Jessica served as maid of honor. Wentz's English bulldog, Hemingway, was the ring-bearer. Guests included Jessica's boyfriend, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, Nicole Richie and Joel Madden, as well as actor Donald Faison with girlfriend CaCee Cobb.
Simpson told PEOPLE on Friday that she was never the type to dream about her wedding when she was growing up, but changed her tune once she got engaged. "Now that I'm doing it, I definitely have that big dream. It kind of went more fairytale than I thought. I got really into it." Added Wentz, "She has this amazing imagination and to watch it take place is an awesome thing."
With the help of wedding planner Mindy Weiss, Simpson got her dream nuptials: The Alice in Wonderland themed reception featured a wedding cake by Sam Godfrey of Perfect Endings with a top hat, tea pot, stop watch and a pot of flowers on top. The elaborate centerpieces of black beauty roses were by Mark's Garden. Guests were served Rose Veuve Clicquot champagne followed by a sit-down dinner and dancing to a deejay.
Simpson, who sources say is pregnant with the couple's first child, and Wentz, the bassist for Fall Out Boy, have been linked since the fall of 2006, when they were spotted kissing at a New York nightclub. They announced their engagement last month.
"He's a cutie," Simpson told PEOPLE last year. "He has an awesome personality and kind of brings out the best of me and I knew that even before we were dating. There was just like an awesome connection we had."
After they'd been dating almost a year, Wentz told PEOPLE, "We're past the honeymoon period. The truth is, it's crazy to be able to kiss your best friend. It's just a really awesome thing."
This is the first marriage for both.

Read more!ICC surprised by Shah Rukh Khan statement

NEW DELHI: ICC on Monday appeared surprised at film star Shah Rukh Khan's statement that its anti-corruption unit had asked him not to be with the team on the playing field, saying that the IPL tournament was being played under BCCI's rules and regulations.
The ICC said the IPL was a domestic tournament and the game's governing body did not have any role in formulating the rules.
"The reported incident has nothing to do with the ICC as IPL is a domestic tournament which is being held under the Rules and Regulations of the BCCI," an ICC spokesman said from Dubai.
"Furthermore, the ICC Board in its meeting held in Dubai on 17-18 March had decided that IPL will introduce a code of conduct, an anti-corruption code and an anti-doping code that complies with ICC regulations," he said.
Bollywood superstar and Kolkata Knight Riders owner Shah Rukh Khan last night expressed disappointment, claiming he had been barred by the ICC anti-corruption unit from going to the team dug out and dressing room in the remaining IPL matches.
"I like to hang around with the boys. I am very energetic. I am very disappointed that the ICC has stopped me," he said.
"I don't know the ICC rules. I'll tell only one thing. Nobody dare stop me from coming to Kolkata. I'll be here whenever my team plays a match at the Eden," Khan said.
Asked whether Shah Rukh needed an accreditation for the IPL matches, the ICC spokesman said, "Everybody needs an accreditation and these are in line with anti-corruption code. BCCI is following anti-corruption code. Now I don't know what modifications they have made to the code."
Knight Riders CEO Joy Bhattacharya played down the event and said Shah Rukh was actually stopped by security personnel for not carrying a visitors' pass.
"Look there is nothing like that. It was a gentleman from the security who stopped Shah Rukh Khan. He said Shah Rukh didn't have a valid visitor's pass...I don't think there is any controversy or issue," he said.
He said the ICC rules were to make sure that bookies didn't enter the dressing room.
"When these rules were framed, the concept of franchisee owners' domestic tournament didn't even come, the law was not framed to stop people like Shah Rukh Khan, Preity Zinta, Mukesh Ambani or Vijay Mallya from walking into the dressing room," he said.
"According to even ICC regulations, there is a system of visitor's pass, the manager and team management sign it. The person can be allowed in the dressing room as long as it is signed by. So there is no way to stop Shah Rukh from entering the dressing room," Bhattacharya added.source

The Playboy tycoon - who lives in a Los Angeles mansion with Holly and his two other girlfriends Kendra Wilkinson and Bridget Marquardt - has no plans to tie the knot again after going through two divorces.
He said: "I love Holly very much and I think we're going to be together the rest of my life. But marriage isn't part of my puzzle. It's not a personal thing - I just haven't had much luck with marriages."

Melbourne: Playboy boss Hugh Hefner has revealed that he doesn’t want to marry girlfriend Holly Madison, because of past failed marriages.

It’s not a personal thing - I just haven’t had much luck with marriages," he said.source

Read more!Britney Spears Adnan Galib Sex Tape Rumor
We missed Adnan Ghalib.
The last time we heard from the former paparazzi boyfriend of Britney Spears, he was seen with Kathy Griffin. No clue WTF that was all about.
Oh, and there was the whole thing with that knife-wielding maniac trying to kill him. No idea what went on there or if it got resolved.
Nor do we know when and how he and Britney broke up, though we’re assuming it happened at some point, as he essentially dropped off the planet.
That is, until this week.
The National Enquirer reports he’s making one last grab at Britney Spears’ assets. No, not that newly-toned and sexy caboose. Her cash, people.
How’s he doing it? With a sex tape, of course!

Rumors say Adnan Ghalib is shopping around a Britney Spears sex tape filmed during their trip January trip to Rosarito, Mexico.
“The video starts with Britney undressing,” said an insider. “She was wearing some cheap clothes she bought down there in Rosarito. The sex wasn’t particularly kinky but Britney wears a pink wig throughout.”
Yes, of course she does.
“At one point in the tape Adnan Ghalib asks Britney to remove the pink bob but she refuses, saying ‘Take what off? There’s nothing left to take off.’”
This “insider” also thinks a Britney Spears sex tape would be the top selling celebrity sex video ever, topping even the Paris Hilton-Rick Salomon romp, 1 Night in Paris.

The last time we heard from the former paparazzi boyfriend of Britney Spears, he was seen with Kathy Griffin. No clue WTF that was all about.
Oh, and there was the whole thing with that knife-wielding maniac trying to kill him. No idea what went on there or if it got resolved.
Nor do we know when and how he and Britney broke up, though we’re assuming it happened at some point, as he essentially dropped off the planet.
That is, until this week.
The National Enquirer reports he’s making one last grab at Britney Spears’ assets. No, not that newly-toned and sexy caboose. Her cash, people.
How’s he doing it? With a sex tape, of course!

Rumors say Adnan Ghalib is shopping around a Britney Spears sex tape filmed during their trip January trip to Rosarito, Mexico.
“The video starts with Britney undressing,” said an insider. “She was wearing some cheap clothes she bought down there in Rosarito. The sex wasn’t particularly kinky but Britney wears a pink wig throughout.”
Yes, of course she does.
“At one point in the tape Adnan Ghalib asks Britney to remove the pink bob but she refuses, saying ‘Take what off? There’s nothing left to take off.’”
This “insider” also thinks a Britney Spears sex tape would be the top selling celebrity sex video ever, topping even the Paris Hilton-Rick Salomon romp, 1 Night in Paris.

In the nine years since they last took to the stage together, the Spice Girls have done a lot of growing up.
So too, it must be hoped, have their fans.
Because Saturday's opening night of the group's British tour saw them perform a particularly raunchy set.

Singing, dancing and gyrating in front of 20,000 cheering fans, they caused quite a stir at the O2 arena in London.
At one point, Scary Spice Melanie Brown dragged a male dancer on to the stage and simulated a lewd act.
Their costumes, by Italian designer Roberto Cavalli, were equally memorable, displaying varying amounts of flesh. They changed eight times during the two-hour show.
Baby Spice Emma Bunton, who injured her ankle last week, wore an ankle brace but had to leave the more energetic dance moves to her bandmates.

Celebrity guests in the audience included R&B singer Rihanna, chef Gordon Ramsay and Victoria Beckham's husband David and their sons Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz.
The performance - for which tickets costing up to £75 each had sold out in only 38 seconds - was greeted with rapturous applause at the end and has been praised by reviewers.
Indeed, their unexpected success has prompted speculation that the group will release a new album.
A record label insider said: "The girls have been stunned by the incredible response their shows have produced.
Posh Spice spared no efforts promoting her dVb jeans at Harrods in London on May 15, 2008. But during the photocall, Victoria Beckham's black tight strapless dress caused her to unwittingly show the extra left armpit flesh. OMG! Perez Hilton called it "vagina pit". Apparently, she didn't learn the lesson from an earlier incident in December.

SRK's 'not ruffled' over Aamir's blogpost

Bollywood blogs seems to top the list of controversies with Aamir's Khan latest entry raising eyebrows for naming his pet dog 'Shahrukh.' But Shah Rukh Khan replied that he is not ruffled, and that he is taking it in the right spirit.
After Amitabh Bachchan's blog created a controversy with his remarks against Shatrughan Sinha, Aamir's new blogpost talks about his pet dog 'Shahrukh' at his home in Panchgani. Aamir, who is recuperating from a hamstring injury suffered on the sets of Ghajini, said he has nothing to do with the naming of the dog.
'Shahrukh is the dog of the caretakers of our house,' he wrote. 'When I bought this house it came with the caretakers.'
When his reaction was sought to Aamir's blog, King Khan said that he was not bothered about it. "I have never bothered about it because I also say a lot of things in fun and I think I also may be stressing somebody else out. I don't get stressed when friends pass comments like this. Actually, I enjoyed it," Shah Rukh said.
This is not the first time that Aamir has taken a shot at SRK . A few months back, he had said at an event, "I would like to ask Shah Rukh how it feels to be number two."
