Hayden Panettiere confirms pregnancy in Ice Bucket Challenge video
Hayden Panettiere confirms pregnancy in Ice Bucket Challenge video
Hayden Panettiere has confirmed that she is pregnant while taking part in the Ice Bucket Challenge.
Reports that the actress was expecting her first child with boxer fiancé Wladimir Klitschko first emerged in May.
The Nashville star revealed the pregnancy by nominating her unborn child as one of the next challengers to take up the charitable dare. She also nominated both Klitschko and country singer Kasey Musgraves.
Stars across the globe have now taken to the Ice Bucket Challenge, to raise awareness for those suffering from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS, or motor neurone disease).
The cast of Gotham, former US president George W Bush and X Factor judges Cheryl Fernandez-Versini and Mel B are some of the most recent participants.
Panettiere recently claimed that she and Klitschko had put plans to wed on hold due to the civil turmoil in Ukraine.

Jackie Chan's son detained in Beijing drug bust
http://news.yahoo.com/jackie-chans-son-detained-beijing-drug-bust-011108706.html
Jackie Chan's son detained in Beijing drug bustBEIJING (AP) — Hong Kong action superstar Jackie Chan's actor-son Jaycee Chan has been detained in Beijing on drug-related charges, the latest high-profile celebrity to be ensnared in one of China's biggest anti-drug crackdowns in two decades.
Jaycee Chan, 31, was detained last Thursday together with the 23-year-old Taiwanese movie star Kai Ko, Beijing police said late Monday on their official microblog, identifying them only by their surnames, ages and nationalities. It was unclear why the detentions were announced several days later.
Police said both actors tested positive for marijuana and admitted using the drug, and that 100 grams of it were taken from Chan's home.
Jaycee Chan's management, M'Stones International, apologized to the public on his behalf for the "social impact" caused in a statement on their website. It said they would "supervise his rehabilitation and help him return to the right path."
Several celebrities have been detained on drug charges following a declaration in June by President Xi Jinping that illegal drugs should be wiped out and that offenders would be severely punished. In Beijing alone, more than 7,800 people have been caught in the crackdown, police said.
Chinese state broadcaster CCTV aired footage of a police search of the younger Chan's home in Beijing in which he is depicted, his face pixelated, showing officers where he stashed bags of marijuana. Police said they acted on a tipoff from the public.
Chan is accused of accommodating drug users, an offense that carries a maximum sentence of three years' imprisonment — a far more serious charge than that of drug consumption. Two other people detained in the same case were accused of selling drugs while Ko is accused of drug consumption.
China named the elder Chan an anti-drug ambassador in 2009. Ko, the Taiwanese star, was part of an anti-drug campaign two years ago, CCTV reported, showing footage of the campaign in which he joins other celebrities in a chorus declaring: "I don't use drugs."
On Tuesday, Ko was shown on CCTV, his face pixelated, tearfully apologizing to his fans and family.
"I feel very regretful, very sorry to all the people who support me... I've been a very bad example, I've made a very big mistake," Ko said. In a statement online, his management company, Star Ritz Productions, said Ko had received a 14-day detention and also apologized to the public.
Ko, whose real name is Ko Chen-tung, became a sensation after his 2011 film "You Are the Apple of My Eye," a box-office hit in Taiwan. He won Best New Performer award for his role in the coming-of-age movie at the Golden Horse awards in Taiwan, considered the most prestigious in Chinese-language cinema.
He played the boyfriend of one of the protagonists in China-produced "Tiny Times 3.0," which appealed to young female audiences and knocked "Transformers 4" off the No. 1 spot as the most watched film after its release in the mainland last month.
Illegal drug use has ballooned in China in recent decades, after being virtually eradicated following the 1949 communist revolution. Narcotics began to reappear with the loosening of social controls in the late 1980s.
In more recent years, rising wealth and greater personal freedoms have been accompanied by a growing popularity of methamphetamines and the party drugs Ecstasy and ketamine. They are often bought on social media forums and consumed in nightclubs, leading to periodic police crackdowns.

China media industry bans Kai Ko
China media industry bans Kai Ko
Taiwanese actor Kai Ko receives the highest penalty for celebrities and will be banned from China
![468EC636F3F9957287183477AF.jpg]()
According to Taiwan media reports, Taiwanese actor Kai Ko finally met his family members in the detention centre after his 14-day detention, his parents, brother and manager Angie Chai visited him yesterday.
Kai and his mother hugged and cried, while his father told him to take responsibility and face the matter bravely. The 23-year-old apologised repeatedly to those who were present and was sorry for letting his family, company, sponsors and fans down. Kai was also worried that his saga will affect movie earnings (Tiny Times 4) and the reputation of his company.
A Chinese character 'Zheng', which means upright, was written by Kai on the wall of the detention centre, a method he uses to count the number of days he has left in the detention centre.
In addition, The State Administration of Radio Film and Television of China has announced that Kai will be banned from the China media industry. Insiders revealed the ruling set by authorities to be the harshest for celebrities and may therefore end their showbiz careers.
It is said that Chinese movie Tiny Times 4, who features Kai as one of the male leads, will remove his parts in the film before releasing it in cinemas. As filming has already ended and Kai has a considerably large role in it, writer-director Guo Jingming has yet to make a response on this matter.
Co-starring as Kai's girlfriend in the movie, Amber Kuo clarified through her manager that she has not received any news and will continue to work as usual.
Besides the movie, Kai faced pull-outs from more than 10 endorsements including KFC China. Due to contractual terms, another chewing gum company will investigate the matter before deciding on Kai's endorsement.

Rumour has it that Chinese model-actress Viann Zhang and Hong Kong star Michelle Ye are not getting along despite working together on China's fashion reality TV show, "Muse Dress" (also known as "The Goddess's New Dress").
According to Tencent Entertainment, the two actresses, who are both romantically linked to actor Wallace Huo, reportedly have not communicated well on the show and tried their best to avoid each other.
However, while both stars did not directly deny the rumours, Viann recently dismissed rumours of romance with Wallace.
"I am on working mode right now and it consumes a lot of my energy," said Viann, who broke up with actor Li Chen last year. "When it comes to relationship, I will let fate decide it."
Meanwhile, Michelle admitted that it is natural for contestants of a reality show to have tense moments among each other.
"It's a competitive show and we are here to compete," she said.
Produced by Dragon TV, "Muse Dress" pairs six celebrities with six designers to compete in missions together. Other female artistes who joined the show include Alyssa Chia and K-pop idol Nana from After School.

Beyoncé and Jay-Z didn't violate sanctions with Cuba visit
Beyoncé and Jay-Z didn't violate sanctions with Cuba visit
Beyoncé and Jay-Z did not violate US sanctions when they traveled to Cuba last year, according to a government review.
The couple celebrated their fifth wedding anniversary on a trip to Havana in April 2013, but were informally investigated due to laws banning US citizens from traveling to the communist-ruled island.
Organisers responded by arguing that the cultural trip was fully licensed by the Treasury Department, and didn't breach the rules as it didn't include typical tourist activity.
A review by the Treasury Department's Office of Inspector General said (via Reuters): "We found no indication that US sanctions were violated, and we concluded that the decision not to pursue a formal investigation was reasonable."
A US trade embargo means that Americans need a government-granted licence to travel to Cuba, with valid reasons including academic, religious, journalistic or cultural visits.
During their trip, Beyoncé and Jay-Z toured the streets of Old Havana, visited historical landmarks and chatted to local residents.
Jay Z responded to the controversy in the song 'Open Letter'.
Lyrics include: "They wanna give me jail time and a fine. Fine, let me commit a real crime."

Tisdale uploaded two videos to her Instagram page, in which she takes part in the social media charity craze.
After nominating her former co-star to complete the challenge, Zac Efron suddenly appears and asks: "Who, me?"
Upon completing the task, Efron nominated Matthew McConaughey, Robert Pattinson and Eric the Actor.
Tisdale and Efron starred opposite each other in the High School Musical movie series as Sharpay Evans and Troy Bolton, respectively.
The Ice Bucket Challenge aims to raise awareness for ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or motor neurone disease), a terminal illness that weakens and stiffens muscles. The challenge involves people having a bucket of freezing water poured over them, while also nominating others to follow suit.
The charity drive has now raised more than $41.8 million (£24.6m).

While other celebrities have been dumping ice water on themselves and challenging other stars to do so, actor Takeshi Kaneshiro recently accepted the Ice Bucket Challenge without nominating anybody.
According to Focus Taiwan, the Taiwanese-Japanese actor posted a video on 20 August, where he was seen pouring ice cubes into a container filled with water before dumping it on his head.
However, the actor made no comment after the video and did not challenge any of his colleagues to do the same.
Instead, a caption on the video reads, "I hope that everyone who sees this video will do a spontaneous thing to show care for the society without needing to be challenged."
Takeshi also said that he supports the project, which was made to raise awareness and collect funds that will be used for the amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) research, but will not nominate anyone else.

Adam Lambert fan beats security to hide in car
Adam Lambert fan beats security to hide in car
Adam Lambert had a surprise upon arriving in Australia, when he found a fan waiting in his car.
The Trespassing star had arrived in the country for the next set of dates on the critically-acclaimed Queen + Adam Lambert tour, which recently concluded its sold out run across America and Canada.
Despite the presence of extra security due to the large number of fans waiting at the airport, one eager female found her way into Lambert's waiting car.
"He got in to find a fan sitting in the car!" a source told Digital Spy. "She was facing forward and didn't make eye contact with him or say anything at all."
When Lambert, currently recording his highly-anticipated third studio album, exited the car, security stepped in and asked the fan to leave.
Taking the incident in good spirits, Lambert is said to have found the fan's efforts "hilarious".
Earlier this week the star completed the Ice Bucket Challenge, before nominating Queen star Brian May.
The Queen + Adam Lambert tour will visit Sydney, Melbourne and Brisbane this week, before moving over to Auckland, New Zealand.

If you’re still nursing a broken heart about the Nick and Mariah break up, Nick Cannon wants to inform you that he’s the one choosing to leave the relationship and it’s for the best.
TMZ reports that Cannon is the one who decided to end the marriage mostly because he believes that Mariah’s mental state isn’t healthy for their family. Sources close to the family revealed to the site Cannon believes “the environment around Mariah is toxic and fears for his kids.”
He’s said to describe their living situation as chaotic and believes Mariah’s primary concern is making money. Apparently, he’s already witnessed signs of emotional upset in their children: Twins, Moroccan and Monroe, which the public has come to know affectionately by their nickname, “Dem Babies”.
The couple has been living separately and despite rumors of Nick’s infidelity he maintains his main focus is his children.
No one likes to see the break up of a family, but the industry has made Mariah’s diva-like ways no secret and I would hate to believe she displays that same kind of attitude at home. We hope this family gets the help and support they need.

The not-for-profit organization aims to help provide safe water and sanitation to communities in Asia, Africa and South America.
The cold water craze, which has been performed by celebrities, public figures and sports stars all over the world, aims to raise awareness for ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or motor neurone disease), a terminal illness that weakens and stiffens muscles.
In the YouTube video Damon has shared online, the star can be seen filling his bucket full of water from his loo while explaining that the challenge posed a problem for him - not just because of the current drought in California, but because around 800 million people around the world don't have access to clean water.

"Dumping a bucket of clean water on my head seemed a little crazy," the Oscar and Golden Globe winner said.
"We also want to bring adequate sanitation to the 2.4 billion people on planet Earth who don't have it, so I thought a good thing to do to kind of tie those things together, would be to take some toilet water [for the challenge]."
Damon also explained that for his wife Luciana and any viewers who think using toilet water is disgusting, that the water in Western loos is actually cleaner than the water that most people in the developing world have access to.
After pouring the bucket of water over his head and completing the challenge, the Bourne Identity and Good Will Hunting star nominated George Clooney, Bono and sports star Tom Brady. He in turn had been nominated by his friends Ben Affleck and Jimmy Kimmel.

Leo Ku ties the knot with girlfriend of 20 years
The couple registered their marriage in Las Vegas last Saturday
Hong Kong singer-actor Leo Ku announced on Weibo yesterday that he has registered his marriage with Lorraine Chan, his girlfriend and personal assistant of 20 years, in Las Vegas, United States on Jul 12.
The 41-year-old posted photos from their wedding shoot and wrote: “Ever since I released my first album in 1994, you have been looking after me. From now on, let me take good care of you.”
According to media reports, Leo and Lorraine first met at the record company in the early 90s. Although the couple did not go public until recent years, their relationship is said to be an open secret in the industry.
During Chinese New Year in February, Leo happily said “okay” when his friends jokingly told him to get married soon so that he could distribute red packets next year, hinting at his impending wedding.
Sources revealed that the singer-actor successfully proposed to Lorraine at the beginning of the year and that he had applied for two-week leave to tie the knot in Las Vegas. As only the couple’s parents flew over to witness the solemnisation ceremony, their friends and colleagues did not know about their marriage until his announcement on Weibo. The newlyweds are planning to hold their wedding banquet next year.
Also, Leo is rumoured to have set up a bakery worth HK$40 million (approximately S$8 million) for his other half. The lovebirds will reportedly make their first public appearance as husband and wife at the shop’s opening ceremony this Saturday.
