Even Megan Fox has to feel sorry for Michael Bay after this catastrophe. The Transformers director was the featured speaker for Samsung TV at the CES convention in Las Vegas this afternoon when he was asked a question about his vision, about how he comes up with what we see on screen. Bay started to answer with confidence, only for the teleprompter to break and for Bay to say he was gonna “wing it.” Except he couldn’t do so and proceeded to flee from the stage, leaving both the audience and the moderator dumbfounded. Watch it all transpire now: Michael Bay Bails on CES 2014 Bay later took to his website and wrote: “Wow! I just embarrassed myself at CES … I got so excited to talk, that I skipped over the Exec VP’s intro line and then the teleprompter got lost. I guess live shows aren’t my thing.”
My name is Umme (third from right) and I live in Dubai. I’ve been a belieber since 2008 and meeting Justin has been my biggest dream ever. I tried everything I could to get M&G passes. There was a competition held by the Virgin Radio in Mall Of Emirates here and you had record a 30 second video explaining why you’re the #1 belieber. I made a video but later got an e-mail by them saying my video had got corrupted and in return, they gave me 2 passes to the ‘Never Say Never’ screening. After that, they had 3-4 more competitions and I entered them all but failed. Later, Virgin Radio crew announced that they were going to choose 2 lucky beliebers from the ‘Never Say Never’ screening but sadly, I didn’t win in that either. Two days before the concert I found out that there was a competition on Twitter where w e had to tweet @HPandMe saying why should I win meet and greet passes. On the 3rd of May I got an e-mail by HP saying that I had won 2 M&G passes, and when I read that, believe me, I died. Justin had two Believe tour concert dates here; one the 4th and one on the 5th of May. When my friend and I reached the stadium at 5 and contacted the HP people, they took us in a room where all the beliebers with M&G passes were waiting. Before meeting Justin, his photographer came and told us the rules that we wouldn’t be getting his autograph and that we’d have very less time with him so we wouldn’t be able to have a conversation with him. Sad, isn’t it? Finally it was time to meet Justin. I can’t explain how fast my heart was beating. I couldn’t believe that finally, after 5 years of waiting, I was finally going to meet him. I tried to control myself because I didn’t want him to freak out. We were a group of 5 and I went and stood next to him. He looked like a perfect Ken doll, flawless. When we met him, he said, “Hey guys, wassup?” And I replied, “Hey Justin, how are you?” He turned towards me and winked at me! I felt his arms coming around my waist, and my heart was pounding. Then we were asked to leave the room, but while leaving I asked him if I could get a kiss but he said that he was sick. I also got to touch his hand from the stage! I went to both of his concerts. I just want all of you all to know that never lose hope, you’ll get to meet your idol someday too. -@JB_ILooveYouu Original post: My name is Umme (third from right) and I live in Dubai….

Justin’s time in London over tour has been so over-exaggerated by the media. 85% of his trip was great, just certain nights paps were out of line and downright disrespectful. Clearly the culture barrier was a bit of a shock to certain people but everything he did here was fully acceptable, and the majority of rumours that went around were all false. My favourite experience of the Believe Tour was the early morning of Justin’s birthday. I had one goal for tour and that was to wish him a happy birthday and I got to do just that. The day before, I had finished college at lunchtime so I met up with Shanice to check out want was happening at the hotel, as it had become routine for Justin to come back to London after every show in the UK. He should have been back that day but when we got to the hotel, the crew were leaving for their second show in Birmingham. Scrappy told us that there had been a coach crash on the motorway so Justin’s bus couldn’t get back to London so he stayed on the out skirts of Birmingham that night, but would be back tonight after the show. We asked what time and he said, “The show ends at 10:30 and its a 2 hour 30 minute drive. Do the math!” We were really excited and then we just chatted with him, Dan and Yael before they had to leave. After that we went home and told everyone to be at the hotel for midnight and to make sure to bring all our birthday presents. When we got to the hotel there were a few other fans, paps and loads of barriers up around the entrance. While we waited, we had to be sure that all our gifts were ready. It had hit 1 a.m. and a few of the guys were writing out their birthday cards and then I got a phone call from Maggie saying that she was on the bus at the traffic lights and Justin tour bus was right in front of hers. The road was really clear so it was literally just the tour bus as it came up to the drive. Everyone was silent and getting ready as the bus parked up at the entrance. The door of the bus opened and everyone started singing happy birthday. It had literally just been minutes into his birthday so it was a really cute moment. I went and stood next to the door and Dustin jumped out and was like, “Give me all your gifts and stuff.” He took all the fan’s presents and cards and put them in the hotel. He came back to get Justin off the bus and literally the second he got off, he turned towards the fans and I swear I just stood there in shock. All that was going round was “Ommmmg he’s shirtless, breathe, breathe.” Justin turned towards me. I swear he must of thought I was insane with my mouth just hanging open catching flies. He took a picture with a fan and ran inside. He was outside for no more than 30 seconds so I have no idea why the media even ran with that story. We knew as it was his birthday he would come out again, so we just waited around for another hour or so. Most people went home but the paparazzi stayed and we knew there’s no way they’re ruining this for him. We went round to the garage and we saw Dustin with the bat in his hand that Shannon and Maggie had put in Justin’s birthday bag. We were like, “Omg Justin opened the presents.” He gave it to Justin as he got into the Maybach with Bei. We were like “Yes the paps ain’t get nothing tonight.” As the cars pulled out of the garage, the paps started to get onto their motorbikes to follow Justin so went behind the last car and formed like a human chain so that their motorcycles couldn’t get past us and couldn’t follow him. The next thing you know, Justin rolled his window down, put his head out of the car and was waving the bat like, “Block the paps.” We let the cars go as far as possible without getting followed but at some point we had to let the chain go or we would get run over by other cars. At this point we were so pumped with adrenaline. We knew we had to keep this up. We had no idea what club he went to so we quickly checked nearby ones. He wasn’t there so we started thinking of other ones. Shannon was like, “Let’s check out Club 55 or After 2am known as BLC.” It was a short walk. We got to the club – jackpot, the Maybach and Rolls Royces were all parked out front. We have no idea how the paps found him so we told the lady at the front that we basically want to make sure that the paps don’t get any pictures of Justin and she said she would signal us when Justin was coming out. He wasn’t even in the club that long the women told Adele, and Jess that he was coming out. The Maybach pulled up to the entrance and the paps lined the gates of the club ready to get their shots. We spread out on each side, around the car lining it. The second we saw Dustin leave the club, we threw every blanket we had over the paps cameras. They were so shocked and some of them even dropped their cameras. Justin was shocked, and he walked back and forth to take the piss out of them knowing they couldn’t get any shots of him. The security from the club was trying to get us to stop but Dustin was like, “Let them do want they got to do, they’re helping.” He jumped into his car. The paparazzi were legit trying to fight us. As long we kept them distracted while Justin snuck away, that was fine by us. The cars drove away before the paps had even picked up their cameras. We got the job done so we went back to the hotel and we waited until he got back. The whole area was silent. Me and Mags were having a nap on each other (half the girls went to McDonalds quickly so unfortunately they missed it) and then all you heard was the loudest music ever and his car turned the corner. Justin’s car pulled up to the garage with the window down and Dustin and Mikey got out and was trying to organize people. When it was my turn to speak to Justin, he grabbed my hand and I said, “Happy Birthday Justin. Hope you had a great night so far,” and he squeezed my hand and was like, “Thank you babe. I had great night and I saw what you guys did back there, thank you.” Bei was like, “Yall are crazy!” I couldn’t even concentrate on what Bei said and Justin was just smiling. He was trying to get Lindi to take a picture but it was so cramped and Dustin tried his best to calm everyone down but Justin could only take a few pics because people weren’t listening. That is the end to a crazy morning and probably my favourite time meeting Justin. -@shay16_xo See the article here: Justin’s time in London over tour has been so over-exaggerated…
I can’t believe I finally get to write a my Bieber experience that is worth telling. I have seen Justin many times before and each time was amazing and something special but November 28th 2012 was by far the best day of my entire life. My two friends Mirheta and Briana decided to go to Madison Square Garden and wait outside to see if we could get tickets for the show. We get out of school at 12:40 on Wednesdays but didn’t leave until 2:30. When we arrived I didn’t think we even had the slightest chance at getting tickets because there were SO many girls there. We all started talking, bonding and sharing all our experiences being there. I even ran into the OLLG from ‘Never Say Never’ and she helped me out and told me where to stay. As it got later and later, people started to leave. At 8:30 the concert was going to start in a half hour but the next thing I knew, Scooter walked out and walked over to girls handing them tickets. I didn’t think he had anymore and tears were streaming down my face like there was no tomorrow. My face was freezing cold since in was November and I was outside for six and a half hours. A security guard that was standing in front of me that I was talking to early walked over to Scooter, said something to him then pointed to me. The next thing I knew Scooter was standing in front of my face. I couldn’t even speak. I was shaking so much, this was so crazy. In the video (above) you can hear what he says to me. When he handed us the tickets we were running, screaming and crying at the same time. I couldn’t even breath. I had to stop and like sit on the floor for five minutes. We went into the bathroom to clean ourselves up and call our parents. I couldn’t speak into the phone to my mom because all I was able to do was cry. My dad was the happiest for me, he kept saying it over and over and he always supported me on being a fan of Justin ever since he took me to his first concert in August 2009. When we walked out to go to our seats, the security guard escorted us and next thing I knew I was standing two feet away from the stage. Then the next thing I knew, the countdown was down to 10 seconds and then BOOM – here Justin came. The whole concert I was singing, dancing and screaming. I didn’t stop once. The next day I had no voice but I didn’t care. It was seriously the best day of my life. Everyone on Justin’s team is truly amazing and they really showed me to never give up. I will never be able to thank Scooter enough for giving me these tickets and making in the most amazing day. Justin is such an amazing person and this whole video above is my life and I will NEVER regret becoming his fan back in 2009. He has led me to so many great adventures, opportunities and making amazing memories that I will never forget. Justin has changed each and every one of our lives. He taught us how to love, and how to love ourself. He made us all come together and taught us that we all have one thing in common, we’re all beliebers and we are family. No matter what. -Ashley See the original post: I can’t believe I finally get to write a my Bieber…

No one can accuse Bret Michaels of mailing anything in. The Poison rocker took his first elimination from Celebrity Apprentice : All-Stars personally and less than gracefully the other night, breaking down off camera. Bret reportedly was “stunned” by the “brutal” elimination. Bret Michaels Elimination on Celebrity Apprentice “Bret was crying and totally distraught after he was fired,” a show insider said. “It was just a mess when Bret was told the news and filming was done.” The 2009 winner “couldn’t stop crying … even the producers were trying to comfort him. No one expected him to have a meltdown like that.” “Bret went into the show believing he was going to win again,” a source close to the star said. “He could not believe he was let go so quickly.” “It was brutal to watch him freaking out the way he did.” Michaels, who was playing on behalf of the Life Rocks Foundation-National Philanthropic Trust on the NBC reality show, turns 50 this month. Do you think he deserved to get the boot Sunday?
Randy Blythe, lead singer of the heavy metal band Lamb of God, was reportedly found not guilty of the manslaughter of a fan’s death in a Czech court. The 41-year-old and the rest of his band performed at a club in Prague in 2010 where the fan in question is said to have attempted to invade the stage. After falling from it, the fan injured his head, fell into a coma and later died. Blythe was arrested in December 2012 when he returned to the city for a scheduled gig, accused of having pushing the 19-year-old man from the stage. He steadfastly maintained his innocence on all criminal charges. The singer pleaded not guilty to manslaughter and this week, a Czech court is said to have agreed that he was not responsible for the death of the man. We’re glad he can put this ordeal behind him at last.
