Amelia Earhart Mystery Solved??

Researchers think they have put together what happened to Amelia Earhart. Evidence is pointing toward a castaway situation. The key piece is a metal repair patch on the plane which shows up on a photo in Miami and they think they found the very piece of plane on Nikumaroro, a tiny uninhabited island between Hawaii and Australia.  Fish, turtle and bird bones found in fire pits may be signs of Amelia Earhart’s last efforts to survive.

Joan Rivers Storms Out Of An Interview

Joan Rivers was promoting her new book Diary of a Mad Diva,  when the 81 year old  comedian stormed out of a CNN interview Saturday because  she felt anchor Fredricka Whitfield’s line of questioning was too “negative.”  In a statement, Joan defended her actions, saying, “The CNN interviewer was a news reporter and not an entertainment reporter.

Lisa Marie Leaving Memphis

The two jets that were owned by Elvis Presley at the height of his fame, The Lisa Marie and Hound Dog, may be removed from Graceland soon.  Both planes have been a tourist attraction for over 30 years in Memphis.  The Lisa Marie, is like a customized flying limousine, with a large bed, a stereo system, conference room and gold-plated bathroom fixtures. Elvis bought it from Delta Air Lines and his first flight was in November of 1975. The other plane is a bit smaller.  It’s a Jetstar named Hound Dog II.  Earlier this year, Elvis Presley Enterprises announced plans to build a 450-room hotel, theatre and restaurant, with a projected opening date of August 2015.  OKC Partnership, who currently owns the two planes have been  notified to remove them by April of 2015.

Julianne Houff Opens Up About Seacrest Split

The Dancing With The Stars pro and Ryan Seacrest seemed like the cute, perfect couple for the three years they were together and then all of a sudden, splitsville.  What happened? Julianne is finally opening up in the August edition of Redbook.  She said it was more her than him.  “Every relationship, there was nothing wrong or bad, but there was nothing right,” Hough told Redbook. “I had one foot out because I didn’t want to get hurt. And I didn’t say what was on my mind because I didn’t want to ruffle any feathers. I needed to be perfect.” “But now I’m not holding anything back, because I’d rather get my heart broken than never know what it is to be completely, madly in love,” the 25-year-old added. “If I had been this open in my last relationship, who knows?” Julianne has been dating hockey player Brooks Laich, 31, since December 2013.
