BOLLYWOOD ACTRESS JIAH KHAN COMMITS SUICIDE AFTER HEARTBREAK

Young actress Jiah Khan allegedly committed suicide by hanging herself with police claiming she was heartbroken after a failed relationship with the son of an actor couple which possibly drove her to take the step at her home last night.

The body of Jiah, 25, was found hanging at her ‘Sagar Sangeet’ residence in Juhu last night where she lived with her mother and sister who were not present when she ended her life.

Preliminary investigation has revealed that she was in a relationship with Suraj, son of actor couple Aditya Pancholi and Zarina Wahab for nearly a year. Jiah was said to be under depression after coming to know of Suraj’s new love interest, who supplied jewellery to the Pancholis.

Investigators said the actress, who made her dream debut opposite Amitabh Bachchan in Ram Gopal Varma’s 2007 film ‘Nishabd’, prima facie took her life due to her strained relationship with Suraj, a student at an acting institute.

Suraj and Jiah spoke over telephone a number of times yesterday, with the last call being made at 10.53pm which lasted for two minutes. Soon after, Jiah hanged herself. Post mortem examination revealed the incident took place between 11 pm and 11.30 pm, sources said.......

ACTRESS AMANDA BYNES ARRESTED FOR POSSESSION OF MARIJUANA

U.S. actress Amanda Bynes was arrested in New York City on Thursday after she allegedly threw a bong out the window of a midtown Manhattan apartment building, a police official said.

New York police received a call on Thursday night from an employee at the 47th Street high-rise building where Bynes lives, said NYPD spokesman Detective Brian Sessa.

The employee reported that someone was smoking marijuana in the lobby.

When police arrived, they were directed to Bynes’ apartment, where the actress invited police in, Sessa said.

Officers detected a strong smell of marijuana in the apartment and observed the bong – a tube-shaped water pipe commonly used for smoking marijuana – in the apartment, according to Sessa.

Bynes grabbed the bong and threw it out the window, he said. The actress lives on the 36th floor, The New York Daily News reported.

Bynes, 27, a former child star who had her own TV comedy sketch show on Nickelodeon at age 13, was taken into custody and charged with tampering with physical evidence, reckless endangerment and criminal possession of marijuana.

She pleaded no contest earlier this month in California to driving with a suspended license, according to The Los Angeles Times, one of a number of recent run-ins with the law.

After pleading guilty to tax evasion in December, the Bronx rapper didn’t dance around the issue when discussing it with MTV’s “RapFix Live.”

BIG FINANCIAL DRAMA: MARY J.BLIGE HAS BEEN HIT WITH A $3.4MILLION TAX REPAYMENT BILL & MORE!

Remember Mary J.Blige? Popular singer & Grammy winner? Yes. She was off the news for a while but now she’s back – this time, with a not so good news. First, she allegedly owes the Garden State $900k. That’s pretty much, you know?

Now, according to TMZ , she has been slapped with a $3.4 million bill from US federal tax office. The IRS filed a federal tax lien against the Grammy winner, claiming she failed to pay all her income taxes for the years 2009 ($574,907.30), 2010 ($2,203,743.53) and 2011 ($647,604.60) which brings it to a total of $3,426,255.43. This, right here is money. I tell you. (You can do the math yourself, multiply by 155dollars to One Naira).

Anyway, the IRS needs to join the queue as the State of NJ says MJB still owes $901,769.65 in back taxes. Blige is being sued for allegedly defaulting on a $2.2 million bank loan and her charity is facing a lawsuit that claims it took out a $250k loan and never paid it back.

Goodluck to her in paying her bills. Hopefully she doesn’t get …oh wait, never mind.
