Many of us would remember Sinbad, also known as David Adkins, as the funny comedian actor who had his way on the big screen with his funny antics that would make people laugh. But the news that broke out some days back with regards to his supposed heart attack was no laughing matter.
The 50 year old actor reportedly died of a heart attack on March 14, 2007 as reported by Wikipedia that drew the headlines of most newsrooms. Apparently, it was a vandalized report as Wikipedia can be edited. Sinbad is in top shape and has no health problems. He is best remembered for his role in Houseguest as the swindler who took the identity of a dentist to avoid the mob.
While people would feast on such headlines of celebrities in the limelight, this was certainly far from amusing. But the good news is that it was all a fluke and that all Sinbad fans can heave a sigh of relief that their favorite comedian is up and well.

Popular action star Mel Gibson has been often faced criticism for the movies that he has produced and it seems that the trend will continue to go on. After facing some violent reactions towards “Passion of the Christ” where he was severely questioned for its basis, he is at it again with his new film “Apocalypto”.
Apparently, Gibson was entertaining questions at the California State University when one professor from the Central American studies, Alicia Estrada questioned the misrepresentation of the Mayan culture from the movie. Gibson traded words with Estrada who was later on escorted out for her supposed misconduct and heckling barbs at the famed Hollywood actor-producer.
If there is one thing that differs from acting and directing, it is that of consistency with the races to which Gibson has been catering to. Known to be one of the hot male actors of his time in such flicks as “Lethal Weapon” and “The Patriot”, Gibson has been always the center of controversy with his film releases.

The actress has revamped her look as part of her new status. Look out, baby, her comes a brand new Reese Witherspoon with a much better sense of style thanks to Nina Ricci designer, Olivier Theyskens. Witherspoon says that she cleaned out her closet, creating on the floor a pile of clothes that she admits were influenced by her various roles and were not at all to her personal taste. Sounds like it was a much needed ‘Queer Eye For the Straight Girl” thing without actually being on the show
If anyone is thinking that this girl is at home, grieving her loss while Phillippe up and does the rounds of the latest Hollywood ladies, they can think again. She has her new beau in Jake Gyllenhaal, who may soon be stepping into a superhero suit soon as either Captain Marvel or as the new Spiderman – replacing Tobey Maguire.

Michael Jackson has his place in history. He is considered the King of pop music. He brought a whole new sound, style of dancing and pioneered some of the most creative music videos. He is indeed a talented artist who can be considered a legend.
Jackson is also famous for his many off stage problems, most of them involving children. He has been sued a number of times on child molestation charges which so far have all been proven false but has definitely put a damper on his career.
Now, the singer is being charged by a dead woman’s family. The children of Manuela Gomez Ruiz claim that his visit to Marian Medical Center resulted in chaos and a circus like atmosphere which was definitely detrimental to the recovery of their mother who had suffered a heart attack. According to them, their mother had been placed on life suport in a two bed trauma room. They insist that their mother was hurriedly taken off life support and improperly cared for just to give way to the pop star who suffered from flu like symptoms. Please note that all of this happened two years ago, during the time that Jackson was on trial for molestation.
As far as the hospital is concerned, it is just a ploy to make money. In a written statement they say that, “Patient care and safety is always our first priority at Marian. As such, we are confident the care provided to Mrs. Ruiz was exceptional.”
