LONDON,
July 28: Tom Cruise might have had some embarrassing moments, but despite that
he couldn't help but tell the whole world how much he loves his fiancie Katie
Holmes.
"I
just can't restrain myself, I honestly can't. I've never felt like this before

like hearing it," Hello magazine quoted him as saying.
"Lately
I've had so many people come up to me and tell me about how they got engaged,
and it's like an outpouring of this type of conversation, and what I think is:

Highland
Park single malt named world's best spirit
EDINBURGH,
July 28: Scotland's famous 18-year-old Highland Park single malt whisky has been
declared the world's best spirit by the American Spirit Journal (ASJ), a leading
drinks magazine in the United States. Produced at a distillery in Orkney, Highland
Park topped a list of the world's 100 best distilled spirits.
American
drinks specialist Paul Pacult compiled the list after judging thousands of whiskies,
rums, gins, vodkas, tequilas and other distilled spirits for the list. "Out
of the hundreds of whiskies from Scotland, Canada, the US, Japan, India and Ireland,
Highland Park 18-year-old is the finest of them all and right now is my favourite
distilled spirit," scotsman.com quoted Pacult, as saying.
He
further stated that the whisky had all the qualities required for it to be declared
the best in terms of it having no rough edges "and everything is melded together
brilliantly."
Ken
Grier, the director of malts for the Orkney Distillery, said: "It's not only
a huge accolade for Highland Park, it's a major achievement for Scottish whisky."
Highland Park was established in 1798 and is Scotland's northern most distillery.
The brand, which has already won awards from Whisky Magazine and the Chicago Beverage
Testing Institute, launched the 18-year-old single malt in 1997. It is priced
at 58 pounds a bottle.
'Desperate
Housewives' eyes awards for Longoria
WASHINGTON,
July 23: The creator of the hugely popular TV series "Desperate Housewives"
has planned to pen in more "fantastic scenes" to boost Eva Longoria's
chances of winning awards. The actress was overlooked for the Golden Globes and
the more recently announced Emmy nominations.
"I
don't know if it's because she's the youngest or so incredibly gorgeous or because
the other women have been kicking around for longer and have a lot of (voting)
friends in the industry who are so happy they've caught a second wave," writer
Marc Cherry was quoted as saying by the Internet Movie database.
"I'd
bet Eva was the sixth nominee, just a couple of votes behind someone else. I'm
going to work a little harder this season to make sure she had some fantastic
scenes just to try to fix this horrendous error." Her publicist also added,
"Eva knows her time will come for an Emmy. She has two movies under her belt
and is well on her way to becoming a major film star."
Ash
to get British honour
MUMBAI,
July 23: As the Indian press continues to hammer at Aishwarya Rai, one more international
honour has come her way -- the British government's The Next Step World Diversity
Champion award.
The
award, to be given by the British foreign office on November 24 this year, was
instituted to honour individuals who have encouraged pride in being a member of
the ethnic minority community as well as a stronger sense of personal fulfilment.
The award, in collaboration with the Next Steps Foundation, is considered a prestigious
step ahead for Ash in the international arena.
She
is expected to address issues related to ethnicity at the conference in November,
where the other speakers are expected to be former US secretary of state Colin
Powell and actor Jackie Chan. Says
the actress: "I think it's a great honour. Today beauty has come to be defined
by many other far more profound qualities than looks and posture. I hope people
would stop holding my looks against me and labelling me giggly and frivolous.
"Look
at Angelina Jolie. I think she's so gorgeous... and so real. She's a student of
yoga and she works for the United Nations. She's a complete personality, and illustrates
what feminine beauty means in the new millennium."
Murli
Manohar, who's the producer of Ash's much talked about "Provoked" and
also a prominent spokesperson of the Indian community in London, says the award
is vital to her image as a fashion icon.

Girl
in 'Mallika' sex MMS was Mexican
After
all the speculation about whether it was actually Bollywood actress Mallika Sherawat
in the MMS sex clip which was reportedly widely circulated, comes the news that
the girl who was seen in the porn clip is actually a 19-year-old porn actress
from Mexico. The actress' name is Lolly and the short clip being circulated on
mobile phones was allegedly part of a regular porn video.
Lolly,
apparently is a Mallika lookalike and has absolutely no idea about the furor her
video has created, and is said to have acted in several blue films in Europe.
Mallika, meanwhile, is surely breathing a sigh of relief.
We
hear she's been facing a lot of bad publicity and trauma over the whole incident,
especially since certain Bollywood personalities had gone so far as to claim that
it was definitely her in the MMS clip.
Jordan
to wed in world's longest dress
London,
July 21: Stunning model Jordan is set to make a world record by wearing the world's
longest wedding dress when she ties the knot with beau Peter Andre at a castle
in the Midlands in September.
According
to sources, Jordan, who recently gave birth to her second child, wants to break
the world record with an extra-long bridal train. "No one will believe how
huge the dress is until they see it. She wanted her special day to be remembered
by everyone and she has certainly made sure of that. It will steal the show and
everyone will remember it for years to come," The Sun quoted a pal as saying.
The current world record is held by a Dutch bride who walked down the aisle in
2002 with a 776-metre train.
Computer
game is a sex trip
MUMBAI,
July 20: The
many joys of boyhood are directly linked to hoodwinking parents. And these are
good times for boys chafing at the oppressiveness of parental 'guidance'. The
latest version of a popular computer game called The Grand Theft Auto (GTA) looks
like any other action-packed 3D animation fare in which the player goes on a mission
down city lanes. The innocent user will play within the apparent boundaries of
an imaginary city, modelled after Los Angeles.
