Susan Boyle was the star guest as Oprah was joined by TV judge Simon Cowell for a show called The World’s Got Talent.

The first part was pre-recorded recently at her home in Blackburn, Scotland. And because of her strong accent, viewers were given subtitles on screen to all her answers in the section in which she talked about her life and experience in auditioning and appearing on the Britain's Got Talent TV show.

Susan spoke of her new found fame during part one of a two-stage interview on the Oprah Winfrey Show in the US last night.

When asked by Oprah if she was lonely, Susan replied: 'Oh no. I am not lonely. Everyone has been so nice. I've got millions of new friends now.'

Comedy Actor Dom DeLuise dies at 75

Dom DeLuise died in his sleep on May 4, 2009 at Saint John's Health Center in Santa Monica, California. He was hospitalized at the time, suffering from kidney failure and respiratory problems following a long battle with cancer.

He was a comedian, film director, television producer, chef, and author. He was the husband of actress Carol Arthur, and the father of actor, writer, director Peter DeLuise, and actors David DeLuise and Michael DeLuise.

His first acting credit was as a regular performer in the television show The Entertainers in 1964. In the 1970s and 1980s, he often co-starred with Burt Reynolds; together they appeared in the films The Cannonball Run and Cannonball Run II, Smokey and the Bandit II, The End, The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas and All Dogs Go to Heaven. DeLuise was the host of the television show Candid Camera from 1991 to 1992.

TV producer Greg Garrison hired DeLuise to appear as a specialty act on the popular Dean Martin show. DeLuise ran through his "Dominick the Great" routine, a riotous example of a magic act gone wrong, with host Martin as a bemused volunteer from the audience. Dom's catch phrase in broken Italian dialect, No Applause Necessary, Sava to the End. The show went so well that DeLuise was soon a regular on Martin's program, participating in both songs and sketches. Garrison also featured DeLuise in his own hour-long comedy specials for ABC. (Martin was often just off-camera when these were taped, and his distinctive laugh can be heard loud and clear.)

DeLuise was probably best known as a regular in Mel Brooks's films. He appeared in The Twelve Chairs, Blazing Saddles, Silent Movie, History of the World, Part I, Spaceballs & Robin Hood: Men in Tights. Brooks' late wife, actress Anne Bancroft, directed Dom in Fatso (1980). He also had a cameo in Johnny Dangerously as the Pope, and in Jim Henson's The Muppet Movie as a wayward Hollywood talent agent who comes across Kermit the Frog singing "The Rainbow Connection" in the film's opening scene.


Dom DeLuise was also an avid cook and author of several books on cooking, in recent years he appeared as a regular contributor to a syndicated home improvement radio show, On The House with The Carey Brothers, giving listeners tips on culinary topics. He also wrote seven children's books.

We will definately MISS you!

Susan Boyle Cry Me a River CD

Britain's singing sensation Susan Boyle has become a Youtube Internet Celebrity overnight and has even appeared on a few American TV shows already.

THE Daily Record has uncovered the only CD ever made by Scotland’s singing
sensation Susan Boyle.

It emerged last night that Susan, whose Britain’s Got Talent triumph has made her an instant superstar, is being lined up for an appearance on the Oprah Winfrey show which would give her the chance of a number one album in the US.

But the Record can reveal she made her first recording back in 1999, when she sang blues ballad Cry Me A River for a charity CD.

Only 1000 copies of the disc were ever produced, but we’ve got hold of the long-forgotten recording and it’s now on our site. A showbiz insider said: “This is a real coup for the Record. The whole world would have wanted to find this.

“People will be scrambling to get their hands on this CD. They will be like gold dust soon.”

5. lawrence kutner
6. did kal penn die

Kal Penn Suicide Death

Tonight’s House episode had a huge shocking twist that isn’t finished yet for anyone that watched it. It has to do with House’s Lawrence Kutner. The audience was asked to track down the rest of the story at fox.com/kutner after the episode. The problem is, you have to wait until Hawaii has had a chance to watch it before the website has more information. Read about it below, see photos and a video. Be warned … spoiler alert!





Kal Penn

Kal Penn - House’s Lawrence Kutner

Tonight’s House took an ominous twist when the character played by Kal Penn didn’t show up for work. When Dr. Lawrence Kutner doesn’t show up for work, Dr. House sends Dr. Foreman (played by Peter Jacobson) and Dr. Hadley (also known as 13 and played by Olivia Wilde) to check out what’s going on. When they go to Kutner’s apartment, they find him laying in a pool of blood. It appears that Kutner has committed suicide by a self inflicted gunshot wound.

OH NOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

The entire episode has to do with the issue of suicide. Dr. House spends the episode trying to figure out why Kutner would kill himself. The other characters are a husband and wife, each trying to save the other by donating their organs to each other. In effect, committing suicide to save their spouses.

With the team focusing on properly diagnosing the sick couple trying to give each other organs, there is Kutner’s suicide looming in the background. House can’t figure out why Kutner would kill himself and concludes that it wasn’t suicide, but murder. While everyone else is at the funeral, House is going through Kutner’s apartment looking for clues to solve the puzzle of why he would kill himself … or to get clues about whether or not he was murdered.

Regardless of how Dr. House ends up diagnosing this, it looks pretty certain that Kal Penn is leaving House.

And there it is …. the mystery of Kutner’s death. Murder or suicide? We know that Dr. House will figure it out before its all said and done. At the end of the episode, viewers are asked to go to fox.com/kutner for the rest of the story. However, you won’t get the rest of the story until after the Hawaiian audience has a chance to see the show. Talk about a cliff hanger! There will be a lot of people on the east coast staying up late tonight!

The Fox site is a mockup site that is a tribute to Dr. Lawrence Kutner (1975 - 2009). There is a Kutner memorial video and an obituary on the site. There is also a note from Chris Taub. There is a memorial site on Facebook where fans can leave notes and, of course, get a ton more information about the Kutner character.

I’m not sure I’ve ever seen quite this much of a send off for a character on a show before. Then again, its a pretty good marketing ploy.

BTW, did you know that Kal Penn is his stage name? His real name is Kalpen Suresh Modi. He was born on April 23, 1977 in Montclair, New Jersey. His parents are both Hindu Gujarati immigrants from India. His father is an engineer and his mother is a fragrance evaluator.

You’ve probably seen Penn in other television roles. For instance, he had a recurring role on Day 6 of 24 and has played Dr. Lawrence Kutner on House for two seasons. He had a starring roles in National Lampoon’s Van Wilder, Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle, The Namesake, Epic Movie and Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay.

But its Kutner’s death, not Penn’s, that’s the subject of this episode of House.

Trace Adkins wins ACM's Single of the Year Award

Trace Adkins wins ACM's Single of the Year Award

Trace Adkins won his first Acadamy of Country Music Award since 1996. He picked up the 2009 Single of the Year award for 'You're Gonna Miss This.' No one was more surprised about the win than Trace himself.

"I have to tell you the truth. This song was recorded by a father whose oldest daughter had just gotten married. It was very personal to me, and I didn't think other people would relate to it the way I did," he said. "So it was put on a greatest hits album as a bonus track. Mike Dungan, President of Capitol Records, called one day and told me it was gonna be a single. And I said, 'Go ahead, but ain't nobody gonna play it.' I'm glad I'm an idiot!"
