Ra.one abs, real or fake?

Everything that King Khan does, makes news. His recently relased Ra.One poster has brought him back into being the hot topic of debate in the B-Town. Four years after he showed his toned body in ‘Om Shanti Om’ Shahrukh Khan is once again seen in a dashing eight-pack abs avatar that seems to be more than impressive.


Surprisingly, this has led to a dispute among the gossipmongers of the industry, who are busy speculating whether his super toned body and sculpted muscles are real or are they the result of SFX?

Inside talks suggest that Shahrukh’s abs, that have been grabbing all the eyeballs, are not real. Ra.One is a sci-fi flick and Shahrukh is playing a superhero in the film. And, Shahrukh too is seen in a savior avatar, like any superhero would- holding Kareena Kapoor in his hands, in the brand new poster. However, it can be recalled that during the shooting of the film, Khan lost around 10 kgs of weight, reason being his rubberised costumes. What's rather surprising is the fact that his abs are nowhere to be seen even in a single scene featured in the trailer.

While some insiders are claiming that the abs in the poster are for real, ,there's a particular section of people, who are of the opinion that the abs in the poster could be the magic of computer generated special effects.

Well, whatever the case be, we'd only get to know the real picture once the movie hits the theatres. ‘Ra.one’, which is currently in its post-production stage, is slated to release on Diwali.

Nude Blacks played the girls' rugby team who stripped every time they ran in a try?


the Dunedin-based Nude Blacks, lost for the first time in its nine-year existence on Saturday, beaten 25-20 by a clothed women's team from Spain.

But there may be a clue as to how the visitors did so well. In the spirit of friendly competition, the ladies promised that for each try they scored they would remove an item of clothing.

Asked if they had let the visiting Conquistadoras score a few easy tries, Brad Henderson, a 23-year-old student, replied: 'Of course.'

 But a more modest crowd of about 1,500 gathered at the rather less glamorous Kettle Park ground to watch the all-male team get outclassed by the visiting Conquistadoras, who count a pole dancer, a teacher and a student among their team members.

In the spirit of friendly competition, for each try the ladies scored they removed an item of clothing.
They gave no quarter to the 'defenceless' opposition, winning 25-20.






The Conquistadores' Vanessa Pleguezuelos, 31, said: 'It could have been a distraction but we played the match like any other.'

To Believe Or Not : Psychic Predictions About Your Love Life

When I was 8, some friends of my parents had a party at their house. The main attraction was a palm reader they hired to entertain the guests. “You will marry someone from your childhood,” she told me. I squirmed at the thought of love or marriage; I still thought boys had cooties. This same palm reader also told a woman at the party that she would be separated from her husband of 20 years. A week later he died suddenly of a heart attack.


Unclear since then about whether or not I believe or how much I believe, I’ve given countless psychics, palm readers, tarot readers, and astrologers and the like the opportunity to divine my future. Admittedly, these sessions occurred at moments in my life when I was lacking hope or direction or both.

A Babylonian astrologer told me if I did get married, it would be in 2008. The year came and went. Another psychic told me I would marry a man who worked in finance three years from then. Three years passed and my finance prince has yet to materialize. A tarot card reader in the West Village saw an older, wealthy man who “would be my equal” in my future. I’m still single.

But these predictive failures haven’t rendered me a non-believer. There have been successes too. In college, I popped into an East Village storefront where, for $5, a fortune teller predicted I’d be moving to California soon. Three weeks later, an opportunity to move to Los Angeles presented itself suddenly and I was there. A pendulum reader predicted I would make a career change where I worked with children. A teaching job fell in my lap less than a year later. A psychic dream analyst insisted he saw me moving back to New York and publishing a lot of writing. I laughed at him, telling him I only wrote for fun. Eight years later, I am living in New York and writing for a living.

Audrina Patridge Topless Photos Rejected by Playboy

Leaked photos of Hills star Audrina Patridge topless created quite the buzz when they splashed online early Wednesday morning. The shapely Reality Television starlet says she took them when she was young but they were obviously part of an attempted photo shoot, they aren't the usual "Girls Gone Wild" type party photos so what is the story behind the story?



The New York Post has just a bit of that and notes that just in time for The Hills' season premiere on March 24, nude photographs of Lauren Conrad's BFF have hit the Web. Why now? Publicity comes to mind, but like any good infomercial or in this case reality TV show on MTV there's more.

Page Six reports: "The 22-year-old reality star, who was caught up in a rumored sex tape scandal last year, was so desperate to spin her privileged California childhood into fame and fortune that she had a photographer snap the racy photos when she was 19 years old to submit to Playboy, which the lad mag did not publish."
Audrina tried to make the most of her precocious teen image with a topless Catholic school girl look and also posed completely in the buff in what we imagine is her parents' swimming pool.

Miss Angola Miss Universe in Brazil

Angola Leila Lopes, a business student from the town of Benguela in her home country, was crowned Miss Universe on Monday after dazzling a panel of judges with her beauty and impressing them with her brain.

Lopes, 25, laughed and smiled as she hugged runner-up Miss Ukraine Olesia Stefanko, then felt a crown placed carefully on her head at the pageant held in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Earlier in the contest, Lopes had been asked what she might change about her physical characteristics if she could, but Lopes said she was satisfied with who she was.

"I consider myself a woman endowed with inner beauty," she told the judges and the audience. "I have acquired many wonderful principles from my family, and I plan to follow those through the rest of my life."

Lopes takes her place as the winner of the 60th annual Miss Universe pageant.

It is an annual event watched by millions of people around the world on TV who cheer for the young women competing in categories ranging from swimsuits to evening gowns. They also must answer the critical question that tells the judges a bit about them.

Lopes had worn a bright bikini, then paraded around the stage with poise in a form-fitting evening gown colored in gold and silver sequins and feathers.

In fan voting, Lopes tallied only a 3.6 score for the swimsuit but earned a 7.2 for her evening gown. Fan voting, however, did not count in the final tallies from nine judges.

The panelists, who ranged from race car driver Helio Castroneves to actress Vivica A. Fox and journalist Connie Chung, scored the women on each contest, narrowing from a group of 16 down to a final five that included women from China, the Philippines and the home country, Brazil. In all, 89 women competed for the title.
