Bieber’s Never Say Never tops MJ’s This Is It

According to The Hollywood Reporter, Justin Bieber: Never Say Never has earned 72.2-million dollars at the domestic box office so far, passing Michael Jackson's 72.1-million haul for This Is It. Bieber still has a little way to go to climb the list of the top-grossing documentaries of all time. According to Box Office Mojo, Never Say Never is currently at the number three position, around five-million dollars behind March of the Penguins and nearly 50-million dollars short of the all-time record held by Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 9/11, which raked in over 119-million dollars.WOW!!!

50 Cent gets tattoos removed, warns on face tattoos

While gracing the cover of VIBE’s international issue, 50 Cent shared his opinions on rappers getting face tattoos. Not directly to point out Gucci Mane, who has a huge ice cream tat on his cheek, 50 warns those who decide to put ink on their face. The mogul explained, “To tattoo your face says that there’s not a possibility that you can actually walk into a legitimate establishment without makeup covering your face every day...It creates a separation.” 50 feels it’s a “crazy” idea because “the public will not have interest in you as an artist for life.” So true!

50 recently had some of this tattoos removed because he was tired of spending hours on movie sets getting the tats covered up with make-up. Has 50 changed for good?

INSPIRATION OF THE DAY :Successful People Who Were Once Told They Were Failures


 Have you ever had a dream and people told you to keep your day job? Have people rejected your idea of what you knew was your calling in life? If so, you are not alone.

Look through the chart and see how some of your favorite people were once rejected. That should give you a lot of hope for fulfilling your life long dream even when people tell you that you won't.

US eye more firepower to hit pro-Gadhafi forces


WASHINGTON – Battered by a week of air strikes, forces loyal to Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi still remain a potent threat to civilians, according to Pentagon officials, who are considering more firepower and airborne surveillance systems to find and attack the enemy troops.
As the military eyes other tools in its arsenal, the White House announced late Friday that President Barack Obama will give a speech to the nation Monday evening explaining his decision-making on Libya to a public weary of a decade of war.

12 Year Old Boy With IQ Higher Than Einstein Develops Own Theory

A 12-year-old child has astounded university professors after grappling with some of the most advanced concepts in mathematics. Jacob Barnett has an IQ of 170 - higher than Albert Einstein - and is now so far advanced in his Indiana university studies that professors are lining him up for a PHD research role.The wonder boy, who taught himself calculus, algebra, geometry and trigonometry in a week, is now tutoring fellow college classmates after hours. He is so far ahead of his age group he is now leaving university and embarking on his most ambitious project yet - his own 'expanded version of Einstein's theory of relativity'.  According to the Indiana Star, Institute astrophysics professor Scott Tremaine  -himself a world renowned expert - confirmed the authenticity of Jake's theory. In an email to the family, Tremaine wrote: 'I'm impressed by his interest in physics and the amount that he has learned so far. 'The theory that he's working on involves several of the toughest problems in astrophysics and theoretical physics. 'Anyone who solves these will be in line for a Nobel Prize.' Jake was diagnosed with Aspergers syndrome, a mild form of autism, from an early age. His parents were worried when he didn't talk until the age of two, suspecting he was educationally abnormal. It was only as he began to grow up that they realised just how special his gift was. He would fill up note pads of paper with drawings of complex geometrical shapes and calculations, before picking up felt tip pens and writing equations on windows. By the age of three he was solving 5,000-piece puzzles and he even studied a state road map, reciting every highway and license plate prefix from memory. By the age of eight he had left high school and was attending Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis advanced astrophysics classes.

OBAMA LOCKED OUT -They’re just like us: Even presidents get locked out

President Obama returned to Washington, D.C., on Wednesday night expecting to face tough questions on Libya, Japan's earthquake recovery and other major international crises. But a more personal issue stood in the way: he appeared to be locked out of the White House.
Video of the First Family disembarking Air Force One showed Obama approaching the White House and trying to open a french door--that didn't budge. Barely pausing, he walked to the next set of doors, peering in as he passed, and tried a third set of doors with success.
The incident created major buzz this week as the video began appearing on major cable networks such as CNN, CBS News, and MSNBC. On Friday, the clip still ranked as one of the top five most popular stories on USA Today's website.
News reports indicate that some White House staff had not been informed that the president intended to return to work that evening.
But Obama should take heart: he isn't the first president to find himself locked out (or in, as the case may be).
In 2005, President George W. Bush tried to make a hasty retreat from a press conference in Beijing, China, only to be thwarted at the door. With cameras rolling, Bush tugged at the first door handle, then the other, visibly surprised by their failure to budge. "I was trying to escape," he told the audience with a smile. "Obviously it didn't work."
Bush then turned around and found an exit backstage.

Rihanna Is killing somebody


Rihanna must be out for something with her music, fashion, styles and all. Just going gaga by the second, sorry Lady Gaga for using the word "gaga".

The Most Romantic Places on Earth: Where Celebs Tie the Knot


Celebrities are used to the best of everything and expect no less when it comes to their wedding day.

Considering the social and professional overlap between stars of TV, film, music and sports, it's no wonder that many of our favorite stars choose to exchange vows in the same lavish locations.

From castles to coastal paradises, stars pick the chicest spots to tie the knot. When Kevin Jonas got hitched to longtime love Danielle Deleasa in 2009, the New Jersey native picked Long Island, New York's stunning Oheka Castle. The Jo-Bro isn't the only teen idol to choose the luxe locale: Former *NSYNC member Joey Fatone also chose Oheka as the spot for his 2004 wedding to girlfriend Kelly Baldwin.

Get More From AOL Travel!
When bad-girl bombshell Megan Fox tied the knot with Brian Austin Green in 2010, the heavily-inked actress didn't pick the back of a tattoo shop for the ceremony; the 'Jonah Hex' star chose Hualalai, Hawaii's elegant Four Seasons hotel for their beachfront "I dos." A friend of the couple told PEOPLE of their nuptials, "They were beyond happy, and they seemed so comfortable."

Just months before Fox tied the knot, 'Partridge Family' star Danny Bonaduce married his third wife, former substitute teacher Amy Railsback, in the same spot.

For those couples willing to travel a bit further from Hollywood's bright lights for their dream day, look no further than Villa d'Este, located in Lake Como, Italy. The 16th century villa, named "Best Hotel on the Planet" by Forbes Traveler in 2009, was the go-to spot for John Krasinski and Emily Blunt's 2010 wedding. While it may have been the perfect location for the couple, there's one area resident who's not feeling romance in the air. Krasinski's 'Leatherheads' co-star and Lake Como resident George Clooney has said of settling down in Italy or anywhere else, for that matter, "I was married ... so I've proven how good I was at it, and ... I'm allowed one."
