Its 45 years later and Paul McCartney is still right at the top in New York City and still stopping traffic, being mobbed by crowds and protected by the NYPD.

As Britain’s most famous musician, and export, took to the roof of the famous Ed Sullivan Theater on Manhattan’s Broadway it was as though the clock had been turned back to those heady days of Beatlemania, and Paul enjoyed it just as much as he did when he was a part of the Fab Four!

There can be few of us who dont remember sitting on the settee on a Friday night watching the snippey old retiree residents of Blanche Devereaux’s home in Miami in the much loved TV comedy, The Golden Girls, and, as with Sex and the City, choosing our favourite character.

But now the era of Dorothy Zbornak, her mother Sophia Petrillo, Rose Nylund and Blanche Devereaux has finally come to an end with the death of Bea Arthur over the weekend.

In much the same way as we would have loved have seen The Beatles reform, but the idea was read more ....

Can there be any other band who, with two of its members deceased, another one off the rector scale with arrogance and only one remaining member still mentally stable, alive and kicking, remain as high profile for more than 40 years, than The Beatles?

Isn’t it easy when you don’t have to check your account balance to see how much you can withdraw from the ATM, to be able to write lyrics like, “Imagine no Possessions,” as John Lennon asked us to do in his hit single Imagine, or to tell the world you’re still “Jenny from the Block” and then immediately pop out to buy a $75,000 French antique crib ready for your baby’s arrival?

According to In Touch Weekly magazine Jennifer Lopez has done just that, so as she and Marc Anthony croon lullabies in the $1 million nursery they can admire read more ....

Son of John and Yoko Ono, Julian Lennon, was recently shooting a new film in Australia when he agreed to take part in an ancient ceremony with an Aboriginal tribe and was left speechless when he was handed a white feather by a tribe elder, read more ....
