By ani Saturday Jun 27 4:25 PM Washington, June 27 (ANI): Celine Dion has said that one of the reasons behind Michael Jackson's sudden death must be the immense pressure he was in before his comeback tour. She made an appearance in TV show Late Night With Larry King to share her views on the tragic event. "I think Michael Jackson lived under pressure all the time, since he's five years old - wanting to please his family and his fans and putting the bar so high that he needed to be suppressing his own self," Contactmusic quoted her as saying. "If you don't have something like your family, your husband or your wife, your children - I mean he probably didn't have the balance," she added.

London, June 27 (ANI): A couple, who netted 50,000 pounds after the infamous 'Amy On Crack' video was published by a newspaper in 2009, has been asked to donate the cash to charity. "If it goes to charity, that is the most just result in my opinion," Sky News quoted the judge of Snaresbrook Crown Court as saying. The money will go to Metropolitan Police that fights drugs and to children's charities. John Blagrove, 34, and Cara Burton, 22, who captured Amy Winehouse doing drugs on camera and then sold the video for the huge sum, are punished on charges of drugs peddling. The video shows Blagrove offering the singer a "little bum" - referring to a sample of ecstasy. And then warning her saying, "Be careful with that, it's proper strong. Seriously." The clip also has Winehouse rambling: "I'm useless to you now anyway, I have taken about six valium." Blagrove was sentenced to jail for two years, while Burton, received a tw

By reuters Saturday Jun 27 4:25 PM By Gina Keating LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Beatles For Sale? The Fab Four's prized catalog -- specifically 267 songs mostly written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney -- is embarking on a long and winding road of ownership uncertainty following the death of Michael Jackson on Thursday. The pop singer and Sony Corp's Sony Music arm operated a lucrative joint venture that either owns or administers the copyrights to about 750,000 compositions written by the likes of Bob Dylan, Neil Diamond, Taylor Swift and the Jonas Brothers. Industry analysts estimate that Sony/ATV Music Publishing is worth at least $1 billion, making Jackson one savvy entertainer. His initial investment cost him $47.5 million in 1985. Music publishing is considered a license to print money. Not quite as exciting as the piracy-ravaged recorded-music side, it involves collect

Harry Potter fans are being conned with a phoney link placed by cyber criminals that claims to lead them to a free sneak preview of the new film. Hackers have been trying to trap fans into watching the soon to be released Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince with the link. Viewers are told they must download and install a "streamviewer" in order to watch the premiere, which in reality downloads "malware" that secretly records personal information such as passwords, and bank card numbers. Fraudsters then gather these details to sell them over the World Wide Web or use the information for other swindles. Michael Greene, vice president of Product Strategy for PC Tools, said fans were being targeted due to the hype surrounding the new release. "It's a case of curiosity kills the cat... If you want to see the Harry Potter video before it's released you are going to click on the link. But it's likely you'll get an infection on your computer," S

Washington, June 27 (ANI): Late singer Michael Jackson's final autopsy reports are likely to take up to six weeks, according to the chief coroner investigating his death. The cops have seized vials of prescription drugs from the King Of Pop's rented house in Los Angeles as part of their ongoing investigation. The coroner officials have not found any evidence of foul play in Jackson's death. They are taking extra time to complete toxicology, neuropathology and pulmonary tests before determining the exact cause. "The cause of death has been deferred, which means that the medical examiner has ordered additional testing, such as toxicology and other studies, and those tests we anticipate will take approximately four to six weeks to complete," Contactmusic quoted Chief coroner and investigator Craig Harvey as saying. "At that time, once those test results have been completed, we anticipate being able to close the case and issue a final cause of death. "There
