HAPPY BIRTHDAY BOB MARLEY...

Bob Marley was the world's first reggae superstar. He was part of the Jamaican group The Wailers, along with reggae greats Bunny Livingston and Peter Tosh. In the late 1960s and early '70s Marley, a Rastafarian, gained early attention for writing hits recorded by others, including "Stir It Up" (recorded by Johnny Nash) and "I Shot The Sheriff" (a hit for Eric Clapton). But then he came into his own international fame with songs that spoke of politics, religion and life on the streets, including hits like "Get Up, Stand Up." Marley was a global superstar when he died of cancer at the young age of 36. A greatest hits compilation titled Legend was released in 1984; it sold millions and earned a reputation as the one reggae album owned by people who own just one reggae album. R.I.P. Brethren.

Kristen Stewart had a fling with her Snow White and the Huntsman director, Rupert Sanders.
Stewart attended the Teen Choice Awards with her Twilight co-star and real-life boyfriend Robert Pattinson.
"Kristen is absolutely devastated," a source tells People. "It was a mistake and a complete lapse in judgment." news papers plastered a photo of Stewart and Sanders on there covers that would indicate the two had a romantic relationship. Reps for neither Kristen, Rob nor Rupert have commented on or moved to clarify what went down, including the possibility of whether this is all one big misunderstanding.
However, a source close to Pattinson said that Pattinson has always found fame "very difficult and isolating" and has long thought of Kristen as "the only person who he can talk to about that, and he feels like they are both on the same level and they understand one another."

Katherine Jackson is alive and seemingly well, but also rather upset by the lies she says are circulating about her and her family. "I am here today to let everybody know that I am fine and I am here with my children, and my children would never do a thing to me like that, holding me against my will. It's very stupid for people to think that," the Jackson family matriarch said.
