Watch We Are The World 2010 Video

Last night during the Olympic Game Opening Ceremonies we had the opportunity to see the world premier of the new "We Are The World."

A multi-national broadcast also took place at 2:00 in over 50 countries on Saturday.

The video is well done, and young pop sensation Justin Bieber had the task of starting things off by singing the first line. Other stars joined in on queue and the end result was impressive.

More than eighty-five artists lent their talent to the three-minute video including Jennifer Hudson, Nicole Scherzinger, Sugarland, Barbra Streisand, Celine Dion and Fergie. Josh Groban, LL Cool J, Nick Jonas, Lil Wayne, actor Jeff Bridges, bad guy Kanye West, Miley Cyrus and Haitian-American singer Wyclef Jean participated.

The video is introduced by Jamie Foxx who told viewers they can go to World25.com to purchase the iPhone version and to donate to the Haiti releif effort.

Jackson Kids To Sing At Grammy's?

There is a rumor starting to circulate that Michael Jackson's kids may make not only an appearance, but perform at this weekend Grammy Awards.

Things started to heat up when American Idol's Ryan Seacrest posted to his Twitter page that MJ's kids may participate.

Seacrest said on Wednesday:

"Just talked to the executive producer of the Grammys... hearing MJ's kids may sing."

Were pretty sure he would not have said anything unless there was at least a remote chance the children would appear.

There have been rumors before about the kids making an album and/or appearing on a Jackson Family bio or televised special.

More as news comes our way…

Jackson's Dr. Murray To Be Charged With Manslaughter

Word has leaked out that Michael Jackson's personal physician will be charged with manslaughter within the next two weeks.

A law enforcement employee told a reporter that Dr. Conrad Murray could be arrested as soon as next Wednesday, and that police are going to serve one more search warrant to a Los Angeles pharmacy.

The LAPD is in talks with investigators about whether they will give Murray the choice of surrendering in Los Angeles, or be arrested in Houston, where he is currently living.

Murray is suspected of facilitating Jackson's death by using the intravenous anesthetic propofol to help him sleep just hours before he died.

The King of Pop takes his final bow on the stage of life…

Most of us in this part of the world awoke to the shocking news of the untimely demise of one of the world’s most famous men – Michael Jackson. Though not a real music buff, the headlines reporting MJ’s death did not leave me unaffected.

I fondly recall how in school we use to try to emulate his complicated dance techniques – the most fascinating one being the moonwalk. His highly stylized music videos such as Black or White were the highlights of watching MTV in the 90s. The hugely popular number written by him, ‘We are the World’, is still an all time favorite.

Majority of my growing up years were spent discussing the colorful persona of MJ and the latest scoops. I remember having long serious deliberations with friends and family on his cancelled tour to India - his plastic surgery, the bleached skin - the reason behind it – an attempt to hide his African-American origins or the self-confessed condition of vitiligo, his family history, his childhood years, his marriage to Elvis Presley’s daughter and ofcourse the much talked about accusations of pedophilia slammed at him from multiple quarters.

The loss of this icon to the world of music is undeniable. His distinctive musical sound has, over these glorious five decades, positively influenced so many genres of music including hip hop, pop, R&B and soul music. He remains the greatest entertainer of all times and I am sure millions of fans worldwide echo my sentiments of disbelief and denial at the exit of this star who was raring to make a comeback that was destined not to happen.

May his soul rest in peace.

Michael Jackson Dead Of Heart Attack At Age 50 - Last Photo

Pop star Michael Jackson has died. He was 50 years old.

The singer was found unresponsive at his home in California Thursday afternoon. He was rushed to the UCLA medical center but could not be revived. A Los Angeles Fire Department source told reporters that Jackson was in full cardiac arrest when rescue units arrived on scene.

Aides told a doctor that Jackson collapsed after receiving a shot of the drug Demerol. His breathing grew weaker and weaker and suffered a heart attack. Police have opened an investigation into the arrest but stress they do not suspect criminal activity.

His mother, sister Janet Jackson, and other family members rushed to the hospital. This sad news comes the same day we learn that actress Farrah Fawcett has passed away.

Michael was best known for his signature moon walk, thriller video and album, the smash hit song Billy Jean, massive plastic surgery, and his encounters with law enforcement for suspected child molestation at his now famous Neverland Ranch.

Jackson was planning to appear in a sold-out series of concerts in London next month that would have run until March. Promoters of the concerts had recently said that the singer had passed a physical examination to remove any concerns about his health.

Michael is survived by his three younger children, Prince Michael Jackson, Paris Michael Katherine Jackson, and Prince Michael Jackson II.

Michael Jackson to Auction Off Bizarre Items

Considering Michael Jackson is in a financial pinch of sorts, he's decided to auction off some seriously bizarre items to the highest bidders. But considering Michael Jackson is a bit of a weirdo himself, I'm guessing these items are completely normal for him.

First up for bid: the gates to Michael Jackson's now defunct Neverland Ranch.

Next is a piece of art the depicts Mona Lisa, Michael Jackson (pre-crazy surgery) and company donning dark sunglasses and a white glove. No seriously.

Then there's the Rolls Royce, more strange artwork, rhinestoned socks, that infamos white spandex glove, a personal letter from Ronald Reagan, his 1984 American Music Award for Thriller, and Edward Scissorhands' hands. Yes, this is all for real, so if you thought there was a chance that Michael Jackson was just a bit misunderstood, here's all the evidence you need to figure otherwise.

Clay Aiken Admits He's Gay in People Magazine

Although anyone with an inkling of a mind already knew that Clay Aiken is as gay as the day is long, it seems that some fans are shocked by the upcoming People magazine cover that brandishes Clay Aiken with his newborn son admitting, finally, that "Yes I'm Gay!"

Some fans are heartbroken and feels like they've been "lied to" and now just don't see Clay Aiken in the same light. But in al honesty, did these girls really imagine that one day he was going to fall in love with them and marry them? I mean, the boy is gay, not a mass murderer. Take a breath, you idiots.

So Clay Aiken is likely going to lose a host of fans, even though he's so gay that he didn't have a kid the traditional way and has yet to be linked to a woman other than his mother.

I have to admit; I think Clay Aiken fans are probably a tad more delusional than Michael Jackson fans.
