Tori Spelling gives birth

Tori Spelling gave birth to a girl yesterday.

The former Beverley Hills 90210 actress - who already has a one-year-old son with husband Dean McDermott - welcomed daughter Stella Doreen into the world at 3.13 pm at Los Angeles’ Cedars-Sinai Medical Center.

Stella weighed 6lbs 8oz and was almost 20 inches long, revealed Tori’s representative, who added: “She's here! She's a healthy baby girl. Tori and baby are resting comfortably.”

Tori previously revealed she was desperate to add a daughter to her family.

She said: “I've always wanted a little girl since I'm such a girly girly. I immediately started crying. I couldn't believe it. I have my beautiful little boy and now I'll have my little girl! It's amazing.”

Dean, who has a nine-year-old son Jack from his previous marriage, added he wasn’t feeling as worried about the arrival.

He said: “You're a little more laid-back with your second child. You're not as anxious. You're not as frightened. They trip and fall, and you're a little more laidback about it and realise they don't break.”

One of the virtually prolific and honest names in instrumental easy listening medicine, the hundred and one Strings Orchestra has literally recorded hundreds of albums since its origin in 1957. Their earmark well-grounded is reinforced on a reverence for melody, pristine product, and a pleasant, restful atmosphere; patch occasional albums have concentrated on brass, piano, guitars, and regular balmy rock & wheel rhythms, the strand section -- true to the group's distinguish -- intimately perpetually corpse front and center, because of its lush, soothing healthy qualities. Most of their albums were built about some unifying musical theme, whether the work of a well-known creative person or songwriter, a specific subject (nationalism, holidays, et al.), TV/ moving-picture show themes, songs from a finical nation, revampings of familiar tunes from other genres, and so on. The group was founded by producer/engineer Dick L. Miller, world Health Organization was searching for a means to mimicker the sound and stylus of orchestras light-emitting diode by "name" conductors like Mantovani, without the expense involved in securing their services. He hit upon the idea of recruiting unknown European groups at a much lower monetary value, and made the 101 Strings Orchestra into something of a brand name (since the personality of the grouping rested with the arrangements, the individual musicians were more or less similar, so retentive as they could play in the predetermined panache). The orchestra's get-go base was Miller's own Somerset label and their first arranger was Robert Lowden; he was followed by Joseph Kuhn and Monte Kelly in turn, all of whom wrote occasional original numbers pool as well. In 1964, Miller sold the whole one hundred one Strings parcel to the Alshire label, which continued to turn out product with assembly seam regularity over the following few decades. During their first decade, the one hundred one Strings would now and again extend a more than experimental album as a change of yard, merely that all stopped-up after their fan base's chemical reaction to 1968's futuristic and at times unsettling Astro Sounds From Beyond the Year 2000 (which became a sought-after detail among latter-day space age pop fans). In 1995, Madacy Entertainment purchased the Alshire label and began reissuing a great deal of the hundred and one Strings back catalogue on CD, non to honorable mention new material.

Mark Wahlberg - Wahlbergs Naughty School Prank


MARK WAHLBERG landed in trouble at school for trying to sneak a peek up his favourite teacher's skirt.

The memories flooded back for Wahlberg when he was cast as a science teacher in director M. Night Shyamalan's new thriller The Happening.

He recalls, "Science was my worst subject. The only reason I even went into the classroom was because I had a cute teacher.

"Her name was Miss Bender and I got busted doing the whole mirror on the toe trick. She was flattered but grossed out."

The 37-year-old dropped out of school at 15 and fell into a life of crime. But he picked up his text books again to research his role in The Happening - and admits he's tempted to go back and finish where he left off.

Wahlberg adds, "I'm buzzed. I feel like I could pass the high school equivalency test."

Lindsay Lohan turns down $1m 'tell-all' offer

Actress Lindsay Lohan has reportedly turned down a $1m magazine offer to reveal the truth behind her rumoured lesbian relationship with Samantha Ronson.
The 22-year-old 'Mean Girls' star has been allegedly offered "around $1m" to do the cover of OK! Magazine.
A spokesperson for the actress is quoted as saying: "They sent offers and we passed."
Lohan was photographed in an embrace with Ronson at the Cannes Film Festival last week, leading to speculation that the pair were an item.
Lohan's sister Ali recently dismissed reports that her sister was in a relationship with Ronson, saying: "They're best friends. It's pathetic what people say."

Kanye West Concert Delays Cause Outrage

Attendees at the Bonnaroo Music and Arts Festival this past weekend hurled abuse and objects at the stage, as Kanye West’s performance was delayed by over one-and-a half hours with the rapper hitting the stage at 4:25am.
West was scheduled to perform at the festival, held in Tennessee, at 2:45am, however, problems with the set up of his stage and Pearl Jam playing an hour overtime caused the delays.
Festival goers threw glow sticks at the stage and were led in a chant of “Kanye sucks” by Pedal steel guitarist Robert Randolph.
The rapper, or his management, is yet to comment on the performance.
