Sadly, actor and dancer Patrick Swayze lost his 20 month battle with pancreatic cancer yesterday. He was 57. Swayze was one of those celebrities whose career has become timeless, knowing no generational bounds. Young adults are as likely to remember Dirty Dancing and Ghost by reputation if not from having seen them as are those of Swayze’s age, or older. Catch phrases from his films are still uttered as part of everyday language around the world - who will ever forget “nobody puts Baby in a corner” or the simple “ditto” to represent “I love you”?

Of course those are not the only roles for which Swayze will be remembered. He is fondly recalled as a road-tripping transvestite in To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar, a brutal bank robber in Point Break, and even a competitive would-be male stripper facing off against Chris Farley in an unforgettable Saturday Night Live sketch.

Fellow celebrities are using Twitter as a sounding board for their grief, as are fans, with Swayze’s films becoming top trending topics on Twitter over the weekend. Ghost co-star Demi Moore tweeted sweetly, “Patrick you are loved by so many and your light will forever shine in all of our lives.” The sentiment appears to be shared by many.Source

The FBI will give you Michael Jackson’s file for the right price.

That price, due to copying fees, is $49.10. The availability was discovered by blogger Michael Petrelis after he wrote the FBI under the Freedom of Information Act for any info they have on the recently deceased star.

With the various legal battles Jackson has faced over the years, some of them alledging criminal activity, the file weighs in at a hefty count of 591 pages.

Ah, there’s nothing like celebrities being forced to relive painful and public humiliation over. And over. And over again.

That’s what Seth Rogen had to face, albeit with a sort of nerdy charm, c/o Jimmy Kimmel, when the talk show host played and re-played a clip of Megan Fox openly snubbing a kiss on the cheek from Rogen on Jimmy’s show in 2007.

A picture tells a thousand words, so just check out the cringe-worthy video for yourself!
