Emo quartette Tokio Hotel emerged as one of the to the highest degree successful novel German acts of the Apostles of their generation, grading three figure ane singles via 2005's debut LP, Schrei. Bill and Tom Kaulitz, 12-year-old twins, formed the grouping in their native Magdeburg in 2001, recruiting bassist Gustav Schäfer and drummer Georg Listing to round of golf game out the card. Originally dubbed Devilish, the juvenile little Joe toured sharply before signing to Universal in 2003, adopting the soubriquet Tokio Hotel in tandem with the care. Composed primarily by Bill Kaulitz in tandem with a series of high profile songwriters, Schrei was preceded by the August 2005 release of Tokio Hotel's debut single, "Durch den Monsun." Teenage girls cursorily embraced the ring with calf love excitation, and by the culmination of the month the single topped the German pop chart and its Austrian opposite number. The follow-ups "Rette Mich" and "Der Letzte Tag" too remove number one, although the onetime appeared in a re-recorded version dramatically different from its LP adaptation thanks to Kaulitz's post-pubescent outspoken changes. After the isaac Bashevis Singer clothed his contributions to filmmaker Luc Besson's animated phantasy Chester A. Arthur and the Minimoys, Tokio Hotel returned to the studio to complete ferment on their 2007 followup album, Zimmer 483.

Egyptian director Youssef Chahine reported in coma after brain hemorrhage
CAIRO, Egypt - Egypt's official news agency says renowned film director Youssef Chahine is in a coma after suffering a brain hemorrhage.
The Middle East News Agency reports Chahine, 82, has been hospitalized in critical condition. It also quotes his friend and fellow filmmaker Khaled Youssef as saying Chahine needs treatment abroad. An airport official in Cairo says Chahine will be flown to Paris later Monday.
He spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not allowed to talk to media.
Chahine studied acting in California in the 1940s and went on to become one of Egypt's most distinguished film directors. His work has been critical of U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East, as well as of Muslim fundamentalism and Egypt's authoritarian regime.

DJ SS played an of import use in the early-'90s development of drum'n'bass, releasing a number of shaping tracks beginning in 1990 on his co-owned Formation label before reverting in the mid-'90s with a plethora of productions later on a brief sabbatical. Born Leroy Small in Leicester, England, SS's involution in the drum'n'bass scene predates its developing, back in the years of hard-core. In the early '90s when hardcore began to morph into what would become known as drum'n'bass, he released a series of influential tracks on Formation, including "Breakbeat Pressure," one of the style's early classics. However, once drum'n'bass traded its hardcore roots for a more than ragga-inflected well-grounded about 1993, SS retired from production, non being interested in the ragga sound. He focussed his efforts during this period on former labels that he ran. He returned to drum'n'bass a few old age later, though, in a big way. Throughout the late '90s he released several records on different labels under a number of monikers (Keen, Tekniq), becoming unrivalled of the more than accepted producers in the U.K. drum'n'bass scene.

Jackson Loan Deal Sparks Vegas Show Rumours
Rumours about a possible MICHAEL JACKSON Las Vegas spectacular have hit fever pitch after revelations the loan on the pop superstar's Neverland Ranch home has been bought by a Sin City heavyweight.
Jackson prevented a foreclosure sale on his sprawling Santa Barbara ranch earlier this month (May08) when New York-based private equity group Colony Capital agreed to take over his debt on the property.
But Michael Politz, the editor of website TheVegasEye.com, suggests there may be more to the deal than meets the eye, after revealing Colony Capital's founder, Tom Barrack Jr., also owns the Las Vegas Hilton.
Vegas insider Politz says, "Connect the dots... An affiliate of the company that owns the Hilton agreed to hold the $23.5 million loan it acquired from Fortress Investment Group while it negotiates payment terms (with Jackson).
"And Jackson confirmed he is in discussions with Colony and its founder, Tom Barrack Jr., with regard to the ranch and other matters. I wonder what they're negotiating about. Could it be a show?
"Are we correct in saying that Michael Jackson will sing and dance in the showroom of his former father-in-law, Elvis Presley?"

Former top model found dead in Paris
Known simply as Katoucha, the former top model for Yves Saint Laurent and other renowned designers was found on Thursday near the Garigliano bridge in Paris.
According to police an autopsy showed no signs of foul play, pointing to the possibility that the 47-year-old may have fallen into the river accidentally.
She had been missing since January and was last seen returning home from a party.
She lived in a houseboat near Paris' Alexandre III bridge, and her handbag was later found on board the boat.
The Guinean-born model told The Associated Press in 1994 that she ran away to Europe at 17 aiming to be a model. Her big break came when a designer at Lanvin spotted her in a line-up.
After quitting the catwalk, she turned to speaking out actively against female circumcision, describing her own experience at age 9-years-old in a book, 'Katoucha, In My Flesh', which was published last year.
"I will never get the incomparable pain out of my head": she wrote in the book, which she dedicated to her three children.
Vanity Fair's fashion and style director, Michael Roberts, said Katoucha was: "One those girls who used her fame to spotlight the misfortunes of others."
In the months before her death, Katoucha took on her first film role, playing a beautiful and rebellious woman, said Leandre-Alain Baker, director of 'Ramata'.
Filming is complete but a release date has not yet been set.
American Idol stars Cook & Caldwell dating

Caldwell hugged him and agreed to go out with him, later saying on camera: "I just got asked out on a date".
Speaking to 'Extra' later, Cook said: "So far, I've had a really good time with her."
Referring to her stint on 'American Idol', he said: "I knew who she was, but I can't remember a song that she sang. I'm probably in the dog house now."
Jessica Alba Planning Second Wedding
The pregnant actress’s brother Josh was left flabbergasted when he found out about his sister’s shotgun union in Beverly Hills.
Even the Fantastic Four star's father, Mark Alba, was unaware of the quick ceremony, but he insists he is happy for his newlywed daughter.
He tells Latina magazine: "I think it's good news for her. I'm glad for her. She's a beautiful girl. I'm her dad and I'm happy for her no matter what happens."
However, Josh later explained to E! News that he was only surprised at the rash wedding because he knows "they are going to do a big ceremony later".
He added, "I just don't know any of the details yet."
The couple announced their engagement in December, shortly after Alba revealed she was pregnant.
