Spice Girls musical to hit stage

NEW YORK - THE Spice Girls are out to conquer the world again with a musical based on their hit songs.

The British all-girl band is collaborating on the show, which will have an original story and be built around Spice Girls hits. It has the working title Viva Forever after the group's 1998 British No. 1 single.

The show is being created by the band's former manager Simon Fuller and Judy Craymer, who produced the musical Mamma Mia! featuring the songs of Swedish band Abba, which was a worldwide hit.

The group's five members are 'Sporty Spice' Melanie Chisholm, also known as Mel C, 'Posh Spice' Victoria Beckham,'Ginger Spice' Geri Halliwell, 'Baby Spice' Emma Bunton and'Scary Spice' Melanie Brown.

The creators hope the show will have its debut on the London stage in two or three years and, if successful, could be performed in other countries.

The Spice Girls' sex appeal, catchy tunes and 'girl power' philosophy made them a pop music phenomenon after the release of their first single Wannabe in 1996. The group split up in 2000, but came together for a successful reunion tour in 2007. -- REUTERS

Sandra Bullock 2009's top star

LOS ANGELES - IN THE eyes of US movie theater owners, Sandra Bullock shined as 2009's top Hollywood star at the box office, as the actress nicknamed'America's Sweetheart' scored with audiences after a two-year absence from screens.

Quigley Publishing Company's annual list released on Thursday of top money making stars, based on a poll of hundreds of theater executives, had Bullock beat out such stars as George Clooney and Denzel Washington, on the strength of her roles in'The Proposal' and 'The Blind Side.'

Romantic comedy 'The Proposal' made US$315 million at worldwide box offices following its June release, and football drama 'The Blind Side' has made US$193 million only in the US and Canada since its Nov 20 release, with its roll-out in other countries still to come.

Bullock, who also starred in the 2009 comedy 'All About Steve' with its US$34 million take in the US and Canada, is the eighth woman to top Quigley's list of top money making stars, which the company has put out each year since 1932.

Quigley Publishing said the list does not rank stars only on how much cash their films made, but on what theater owners say about who attracts audiences on their star power alone. For instance, 'Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen' was the top movie at US and Canada box offices in 2009 with more than US$400 million, but many in Hollywood attribute that to the appeal of the franchise itself and the toys it's based on.








The last woman to top Quigley's list was Julia Roberts in 1999. She failed to make Quigley's 2009 top 10 this year, after her turn in romantic comedy 'Duplicity' bombed at the box office. -- REUTERS

Vegetables give Pamela Anderson best orgasms ever

If you want to improve your sexual life, but you don’t know how to do it, then it is better to listen to a pro. However another question appears: who can be considered a professional in this quite intimate field? It can be a man or a woman who can boast of having an extensive experience in sex. Actress Pamela Anderson, former Playboy superstar, is just the right person at this point. And the following is her extremely valuable piece of advice.

Pamela Anderson is urging her fans to energize their sex lives by turning vegetarian. To commemorate the National Orgasm Day, Pam gave credit to her healthy diet that helped her live what she considers to be a fabulous sex life.

She writes on her website, "For your best orgasm ever, go vegetarian."

In support of Anderson's claims, a spokeswoman for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals says, "[Because] meat clogs arteries going not just to your heart but other vital organs, the best sex tip is to go veggie.” Allnews reports.

Anderson explained that vegetarians have more interest in sex. In addition, the sex star said that the vegetarian diet helps her to have more intense experiences in bed.

Anderson is a vegetarian, an advocate for animal rights, and an active member of the animal protection organization People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA).

In 1999, Anderson received the first Linda McCartney Memorial Award for animal rights protectors. The award was given to Pamela for her campaign against fur, lightingnews says.

Porn stars' karaoke nights

BURBANK (California) - EVEN the most ardent fans of porn star Julie Meadows are unlikely, it seems safe to say, to have ever seen her like this.

But there she is, the star of 'Alice in Fetishland' and more than 200 other hardcore sex films, standing on a stage, dressed demurely in jeans, matching vest and white top, her blonde hair piled up under a fetching white watchman's cap, belting out an enthusiastic but entirely PG-rated version of that old garage-band rock classic 'Wild Thing'.

'Wild Thing I think I love you - BUT I WANT TO KNOW FOR SURE!' Meadows growls, as fellow porn star Nicki Hunter, in a white mini-dress, leaps on stage to harmonise. A moment later, when Meadows breaks into some impressive air-guitar moves, the crowd howls its approval.

Don't get the wrong idea. This isn't the opening scene for a porn video. It's simply Porn Star Karaoke Night at Sardo's Grill & Lounge, a friendly little hole-in-the-wall place that six nights out of the week is just another karaoke pub.

The club, in fact, offers Family Fridays when parents can bring their children. On Mondays, people play Rock Band 2 while they sing. On Wednesdays there are trivia games.

But on Tuesday nights, when just about everybody else is getting ready for bed in this quiet suburb on the edge of Los Angeles, Sardo's becomes the place to be for anyone who has ever been, or who wants to be, connected with the porn business. Between beery versions of popular songs, this is where the deals that lead to films like 'Video Voyeur' often get made. -- AP
