WORLD'S MOST EXPENSIVE CHEWING GUM

While you may think that the world’s most expensive piece of chewing gum is strictly a collector’s item and in an odd way, not really gum at all, you would only be partly correct. If you’re interested in paying top dollar for a piece of gum, you will want it for only a collector’s item and it is real, true, bona fide chewing gum. And to prove it further, it’s already been chewed! Sound like something you’re interested in?

In 2004 many people took advantage of eBay and other people’s vulnerabilities by placing chewing gum up for sale that they claimed pop star Britney Spears herself chewed on. By simply typing in ‘gum’ or ‘Britney Spears’ into eBay, you would be presented with many different wads of gum, all crumpled and chewed, and all alongside the seller’s story of how they came to be the proud owner of someone else’s used gum. Why these pieces of gum continued to sell, with nothing but the seller’s word, was beyond anyone but they typically sold for approximately $50 - $100 a piece.

One seller however, made history books and quite a profit as selling one of these pieces of gum, which ended up being the world’s most expensive piece of chewing gum. His gum, complete with teeth marks and all, sold for a whopping $14,000! However, he may not have made such a profit after all. The price was only so high because he kept increasing the bid on himself!!!

Michael Jackson, 'King of Pop,' dead at 50

LOS ANGELES – Michael Jackson, the "King of Pop" who once moonwalked above the music world, died Thursday as he prepared for a comeback bid to vanquish nightmare years of sexual scandal and financial calamity. He was 50.

Jackson died at UCLA Medical Center after being stricken at his rented home in Holmby Hills. Paramedics tried to resuscitate him at his home for nearly three-quarters of an hour, then rushed him to the hospital, where doctors continued to work on him.

"It is believed he suffered cardiac arrest in his home. However, the cause of his death is unknown until results of the autopsy are known," his brother Jermaine said. Police said they were investigating, standard procedure in high-profile cases.

Jackson's death brought a tragic end to a long, bizarre, sometimes farcical decline from his peak in the 1980s, when he was popular music's premier all-around performer, a uniter of black and white music who shattered the race barrier on MTV, dominated the charts and dazzled even more on stage.

His 1982 album "Thriller" — which included the blockbuster hits "Beat It," "Billie Jean" and "Thriller" — is the best-selling album of all time, with an estimated 50 million copies sold worldwide.

At the time of his death, Jackson was rehearsing hard for what was to be his greatest comeback: He was scheduled for an unprecedented 50 shows at a London arena, with the first set for July 13.

As word of his death spread, MTV switched its programming to play videos from Jackson's heyday. Radio stations began playing marathons of his hits. Hundreds of people gathered outside the hospital. In New York's Times Square, a low groan went up in the crowd when a screen flashed that Jackson had died, and people began relaying the news to friends by cell phone.

"No joke. King of Pop is no more. Wow," Michael Harris, 36, of New York City, read from a text message a friend had sent him. "It's like when Kennedy was assassinated. I will always remember being in Times Square when Michael Jackson died."

The public first knew him as a boy in the late 1960s, when he was the precocious, spinning lead singer of the Jackson 5, the singing group he formed with his four older brothers out of Gary, Ind. Among their No. 1 hits were "I Want You Back," "ABC" and "I'll Be There."

He was perhaps the most exciting performer of his generation, known for his backward-gliding moonwalk, his feverish, crotch-grabbing dance moves and his high-pitched singing, punctuated with squeals and titters. His single sequined glove, tight, military-style jacket and aviator sunglasses were trademarks, as was his ever-changing, surgically altered appearance.

"For Michael to be taken away from us so suddenly at such a young age, I just don't have the words," said Quincy Jones, who produced "Thriller." "He was the consummate entertainer and his contributions and legacy will be felt upon the world forever. I've lost my little brother today, and part of my soul has gone with him."

Jackson ranked alongside Elvis Presley and the Beatles as the biggest pop sensations of all time. He united two of music's biggest names when he was briefly married to Presley's daughter, Lisa Marie, and Jackson's death immediately evoked comparisons to that of Presley himself, who died at age 42 in 1977.

As years went by, Jackson became an increasingly freakish figure — a middle-aged man-child weirdly out of touch with grown-up life. His skin became lighter, his nose narrower, and he spoke in a breathy, girlish voice. He often wore a germ mask while traveling, kept a pet chimpanzee named Bubbles as one of his closest companions, and surrounded himself with children at his Neverland ranch, a storybook playland filled with toys, rides and animals. The tabloids dubbed him "Wacko Jacko."

"It seemed to me that his internal essence was at war with the norms of the world. It's as if he was trying to defy gravity," said Michael Levine, a Hollywood publicist who represented Jackson in the early 1990s. He called Jackson a "disciple of P.T. Barnum" and said the star appeared fragile at the time but was "much more cunning and shrewd about the industry than anyone knew."

Jackson caused a furor in 2002 when he playfully dangled his infant son, Prince Michael II, over a hotel balcony in Berlin while a throng of fans watched from below.

In 2005, he was cleared of charges he molested a 13-year-old cancer survivor at Neverland in 2003. He had been accused of plying the boy with alcohol and groping him, and of engaging in strange and inappropriate behavior with other children.

The case followed years of rumors about Jackson and young boys. In a TV documentary, he acknowledged sharing his bed with children, a practice he described as sweet and not at all sexual.

Despite the acquittal, the lurid allegations that came out in court took a fearsome toll on his career and image, and he fell into serious financial trouble.

Michael Joseph Jackson was born Aug. 29, 1958, in Gary. He was 4 years old when he began singing with his brothers — Marlon, Jermaine, Jackie and Tito — in the Jackson 5. After his early success with bubblegum soul, he struck out on his own, generating innovative, explosive, unstoppable music.

The album "Thriller" alone mixed the dark, serpentine bass and drums and synthesizer approach of "Billie Jean," the grinding Eddie Van Halen solo on "Beat It," and the hiccups and falsettos on "Wanna Be Startin' Somethin'."

The peak may have come in 1983, when Motown celebrated its 25th anniversary with an all-star televised concert and Jackson moonwalked off with the show, joining his brothers for a medley of old hits and then leaving them behind with a pointing, crouching, high-kicking, splay-footed, crotch-grabbing run through "Billie Jean."

The audience stood and roared. Jackson raised his fist.

By then he had cemented his place in pop culture. He got the plum Scarecrow role in the 1978 movie musical "The Wiz," a pop-R&B version of "The Wizard of Oz," that starred Diana Ross as Dorothy.

During production of a 1984 Pepsi commercial, Jackson's scalp sustains burns when an explosion sets his hair on fire.

He had strong follow-up albums with 1987's "Bad" and 1991's "Dangerous," but his career began to collapse in 1993 after he was accused of molesting a boy who often stayed at his home. The singer denied any wrongdoing, reached a settlement with the boy's family, reported to be $20 million, and criminal charges were never filed.

Jackson's expressed anger over the allegations on the 1995 album "HIStory," which sold more than 2.4 million copies, but by then, the popularity of Jackson's music was clearly waning, even as public fascination with his increasingly erratic behavior was growing.

Jackson married Lisa Marie Presley in 1994, and they divorced in 1996. Later that year, Jackson married Deborah Rowe, a former nurse for his dermatologist. They had two children together: Michael Joseph Jackson Jr., known as Prince Michael, and Paris Michael Katherine Jackson. Rowe filed for divorce in 1999.

Cardiac arrest is an abnormal heart rhythm that stops the heart from pumping blood to the body. It can occur after a heart attack or be caused by other heart problems.

Billboard magazine editorial director Bill Werde said Jackson's star power was unmatched. "The world just lost the biggest pop star in history, no matter how you cut it," Werde said. "He's literally the king of pop."

Jackson's 13 No. 1 one hits on the Billboard charts put him behind only Presley, the Beatles and Mariah Carey, Werde said.

"He was on the eve of potentially redeeming his career a little bit," he said. "People might have started to think of him again in a different light."

Olympic Gold Medalist Falls to Her Death

Karine Ruby, the first women to ever win a gold medal in Alpine Snowboarding at the 1998 Nagano, Japan Olympics, has died in a tragic mountain climbing accident in France.

According to reports from the AFP (Associated French Press), Ruby and a group of climbers were mountaineering in the Mont Blanc range near Chamonix, France. The five climbers were tethered together when the top climber fell into a crevasse, pulling Ruby and another climber down as well.

According to local police, weather conditions were good at the time of the accident, which occurred at 11:50 AM today. The crevasse was approximately 70 feet deep.

Two of the three climbers were killed, including Ruby, age 31, while another was seriously injured and taken by helicopter to a nearby hospital.

At the time of the accident Ruby was acting as guide to the group of climbers, a role she's been exploring ever since her retirement after the 2006 Turino Olympics in Italy. She was expected to finish her Mountain Guide training within a few weeks.

Besides winning the gold in Snowboarding's Giant Slalom at the 1998 Olympics, Ruby also took silver in dual Giant Slalom in the 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake City, UT. Ruby is a World Champion six times over, with two titles in Giant Slalom, one in parallel Giant Slalom, and three in Boardercross. She enjoyed 67 wins and 127 podiums on the World Cup circuit. She also finished second in the 2004 Winter X Games Boardercross at Aspen.

"I'm a little bit overwhelmed by the news and boggled by how fast a vibrant life like that can end," says former World Cup and Olympic Alpine Snowboarding competitor Lisa Kosglow. "[Ruby] was such an amazing athlete and such a go getter. She wasn't one to sit back and rest on her laurels with her success. She was never a slouch when it came to pushing her limits."

Spider-Man 3 actress Lucy Gordon found hanged

THE boyfriend of Spider-Man 3 actress Lucy Gordon has been questioned by police today after her lifeless body was found hanging from the ceiling of her Paris flat.
While police initially ruled out foul play and described it as suicide, the 28-year-old’s death is under judicial investigation.

Detectives have been told that her boyfriend, who had not been named, was heard arguing with Miss Gordon on Tuesday night.

He claimed to have gone to bed, and then woke in the morning to find his young lover - who was due to turn 29 tomorrow - had hanged herself.

Shocked by the horrific scene, he ran into the street below where he alerted a local shopkeeper.

Miss Gordon, who had starred in number of big budget Hollywood films including Spider-Man 3, appeared to have everything to live for.

A former model, she had just played the actress and singer Jane Birkin in a biopic about the late French singer Serge Gainsbourg currently being previewed at the Cannes Film Festival.

Bizzare Death While Having Sex

It is not uncommon for people to keel over and die of a heart attack or a stroke during sex. In very much the same way that some drop dead while jogging or playing tennis, a lot of people have been reported to have bitten the big one in the middle of doing the best exercise of them all.

There have been, however, actual cases of sex and death that are decidedly more bizarre and gruesome than your usual cardiac arrest. And probably more painful too. But then again, the fact that they died in the throes of ecstasy already guarantees that they've already gone to heaven, whether their souls are actually headed there or not.


1. For Jose Agustin Noh, working at a funeral home had its benefits, namely, access to facilities that normal people wouldn't dare imagine to have sex in, like hearses, for instance. But unfortunately for him and his girlfriend, Ana Maria Camara Suarez, their tryst inside a hearse ended in tragedy when carbon monoxide snuffed out their lives while they were sleeping their sex session off. As it turned out, the couple from Campeche, Mexico left the motor running in order to have air conditioning.

2. Kirsten Taylor, a 29-year-old woman from Pennsylvania, died when her husband Toby clipped an electrical cord to her and plugged it into a power strip which he then turned on and off during a night of bizarre sex, which apparently was a usual thing for the couple. No word on whether or not Mr. Taylor was plugged into his wife as he shocked her to death.


3. A couple in Namibia were killed when an all-terrain vehicle and a truck ran them over as they were lying on the road. The driver of the truck claims the two were having sex right there in the middle of the road, "a typical example of people indulging in alcohol", he says. See, sex and alcohol really don't mix.

4. Here's a real-life case of a man screwing a woman to death-literally. Robert Ashitey, a 30-year-old man from Aflao, Ghana, is one really horny dude. He didn't realize his partner, a 75-year-old woman named Suametor Denou, had already died in the middle of their grueling sex bout, and continued pounding her hard. A woman who apparently takes care of the poor old lady had walked in on the scene and screamed at Ashitey to stop, but he continued going at it anyway. She had to whack him on the forehead with a stick to make him stop.

5. We've heard of thrill-seeking couples having sex in the most dangerous of places, but no one were as daring as Mduduzi Michael Bandezi and Sibongile Radebe, a couple who decided to go at it on a supposedly unused railway in South Africa and were promptly crushed by a freight train. The train driver repeatedly hooted but to no avail, as the two "continued with their business".

It is interesting to note that Mr. Bandezi's half-naked body was found with a condom still on. Good to know he practiced safe sex.

6. Brent Tyler and Chelsea Tumbleston, both 21, fell 50 feet to their deaths from the rooftop of a building in Columbia, South Carolina. A cabbie found their naked bodies on the street, and subsequent police investigation revealed clothing was discovered on the roof, strongly suggesting the two were engaged in some mile-high, in this case 50-foot-high, club activity.

7. A man was killed after getting sodomized by a horse at a ranch in Enumclaw, Washington in July 2005. The man, whose colon and other lower organs were ruptured as a result of the fatal sex act, was actually a client of a bestiality ring that catered to men who wanted sex with animals.
