LOS ANGELES – Farrah Fawcett, the "Charlie's Angels" star whose feathered blond hair and dazzling smile made her one of the biggest sex symbols of the 1970s, died Thursday after battling cancer. She was 62.
The pop icon, who in the 1980s set aside the fantasy girl image to tackle serious roles, died shortly before 9:30 a.m. in a Santa Monica hospital, spokesman Paul Bloch said.

Advocates fear Brown's plea deal, which gave him five years' probation and community labor, is so cushy that it sends the wrong message to young men and victims.
"It sets a very poor example," Roslyn Muraskin, director of the Long Island Women's Institute, said… Continue
The "Transformers" sequel pulled in a record-breaking $16 million with its midnight showings Wednesday, hinting at a big weekend for the critically maligned sci-fi actioner.

NEW YORK — No fair: 50 Cent is cheating.
Well, it's not really cheating when you have producers such as Dr. Dre, Timbaland and Polow Da Don working on your album. Fif is stacking the deck for his current incarnation of Before I Self Destruct. Fif is on his third different production of the album, and he said the third time's the charm.

Weezy was busted in January 2008 at a border checkpoint in Arizona, where authorities found cocaine, ecstasy and a handgun on his tour bus. Wayne's lawyer told the judge he thinks the drug-sniffing dogs used in the bust may not have been reliable because they weren't adequately trained.

She allegedly conned her victims into investing money in an R. Kelly tour that never existed. The woman reportedly says she deposited the money… Continue
First Chris Brown beat Rihanna, then he beat jail.
The heavy-handed crooner copped an 11th-hour deal, pleading guilty to one felony count of assault for pummeling his former flame, in return for probation, community service and domestic-violence counseling.
