His Story
Carlisle choirboy Andrew Johnston stunned judges on the first Britain’s Got Talent audition show when he performed the classical requiem Pie Jesu.
13 year-old hoodie-wearing Andrew, who is the head chorister at Carlisle Cathedral, was visibly shaking before he opened his mouth to sing. And just as Paul Potts had done the year before, he stunned the audience and judges alike with the powerful sound that came out.
After his rendition and a standing ovation, Amanda told the nervous lad she had been “mesmerised” by his performance. Piers agreed, adding he thought Andrew had “a very good chance” of winning the contest. And a near-tearful Simon advised, “Your confidence has been undermined. But I think you are better than you think you are”. Knowing the power of the Cowell opinion, he added for extra impact, “Hear it from me, you are good.”
The judges’ comments topped off a nerve-wracking day for the shy schoolboy who has had to stand up to local bullies since he first joined the choir at the age of six. He said, “Even my mates are always telling me to leave the singing. But I live on a council estate and I want to make something out of my life.”
Speaking after his successful audition at the Manchester Apollo, mum Morag told us, “This has been an expensive day for us, travelling down to the audition, but it’s so special for him - it’s something he will never forget.”
“Now we’ll go back on the train in luxury, and we’ll get him an Indian meal. It’s all he’s been talking about”.
“He does a paper round, but to say well done I’ll buy him the computer game he’s been saving up for. And he can put the money toward buying a cage for his hamster Chubby instead.”
“I’m so proud of him today. He has a brilliant voice. But no matter what he sounds like, he’s still just a young boy at heart.”
I see a movie in this story's future... don't you? But... we have to say Brilliant..wonderful..stunning...
In 1976, Riperton revealed t0 Flip Wilson, who was guest hosting for Johnny Carson on The Tonight Show, that she had undergone a mastectamy due to breast cancer. At the time of her diagnosis, Minnie found out that her cancer had already spread to the lymphatic system. Despite her grim prognosis, Minnie continued touring in 1977 and 1978, and became the national spokesperson for the American Cancer Society 1978-79 campaign.
Eventually the cancer took its toll, and by June 1979, Minnie was confined to bed. She entered Cedar Sinai Hospital in Los Angeles, California for the last time on July 10th. On Thursday July 12, 1979, Minnie Riperton died peacefully in her husband's arms. Her family inscribed her headstone with a lyric of her most famous song, "Lovin' you is easy cause you're beautiful. from Wikipedia
HOUSTON (KTRK) -- It's a case that shocked Houston. A mother, Andrea Yates, drowned her own five children in a bathtub. And now, Eyewitness News has learned her ex-husband has taken another important step in moving on with his life.
In June, it will be seven years since Rusty Yates lost all of his children. And now, he's starting a new family. He told Eyewitness News he has a new baby. He confirmed for us today that his new wife, Laura, recently had a baby. He wouldn't tell us much else about the child.
We don't know exactly when the baby was born or the child's gender. He does tell us mom and child are doing fine.
Rusty and Laura married in March of 2006 following his divorce from Andrea. The wedding took place just days before Andrea's second trial in the drowning death's of she and Rusty's five children.
An appeals court threw out Yates' first conviction due to false testimony from a key prosecution witness. The second trial ended in her being found not guilty by reason of insanity. She's since been sent to a state mental facility.
George Parnham represented Andrea Yates at trial. While he worries about any negative effect on her therapy, he says the news of this child's birth doesn't Seem to have affected her.
"She is at peace with the issue," said Parnham. "She only wants the best for Rusty, his wife and their new child. Andrea's position is that that life goes on."

Meet Max and Emme - the adorable month-old twins of Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony.
The infant twosome make their public debut in an ultraglam 12-page layout in People Magazine.
Taken at the couple's Long Island mansion, the pictures offer a rare peek inside the family's ritzy lifestyle, which includes a nursery decked out in crib couture - and a chandelier.
Born Feb. 22, little Maximilian and Emme Muniz(Daddy's real last name) were showered with the best of gifts, including matching his-and-hers baby fur wraps from Dolce & Gabbana, one of Mom's favorite fashion houses.
The babes will also enjoy twin sets of toys and care from two full-time nurses and a butler. Despite the staff, mom and dad say they are doing most of the work.
"I've been very career-oriented my whole life and very focused on my own world and my own life," said Lopez, 38, "and all of a sudden, the focus just shifts."
"It's like, 'Whoosh!' I want to do everything for them," she said.
"It'll be three in the morning," Anthony, 39, said, "and we'll be like, 'Next feeding in 30 minutes! Okay, cool!'"
The couple conceived without medical help.
"It was all natural," said Lopez. "We didn't do in vitro, which I know was reported. Everybody assumed that because we had twins."
The news that they were expecting a diapered duo floored both Lopez and Anthony.
"[The doctor] said, 'Oh, my God! There's one baby, see the heart beating? And there's the other one!'" said Lopez. "Marc started crying again, and I started giggling."
"One person said, 'Everything with you is a production!'" added Anthony.
After what she said was a morning-sickness-free pregnancy and an easy C-section delivery, Lopez has a plan to lose the last of her 50 pounds of baby weight.
"I was thinking, 'What could I do this year to give me a great feeling of accomplishment?'" she said. "I want my babies to be proud of me. Maybe I'll do a triathlon."
You go, J.Lo!
For the exception of admitting to 2 nurses... a butler is completely understandable!.. a New Coco Mother is born!
As for darling Emme and Max... they will love Dragon Tales!
Toodles!
from EOnline:
It's official. Halle Berry and Gabriel Aubry's bundle o' joy is called Nahla Ariela Aubry, her rep has confirmed to E! News per an earlier US Weekly item.
As celebrity baby monikers go, this one doesn't rank as one of the wackiest, but what does it mean?
North Alberta Health Libraries Association is a tad esoteric. So we're guessing the Arabic Expression "drink of water" probably hits closer to the mark.
Which is going to come in handy when Vitaminwater comes calling for their next poster girl.
Considering how much she wanted this child... Dear Halle has entered into the "twilight zone" of names. No family names... no name that could be a tribute Golden Hollywood (Greer, Harlow)... but then again...We guess with "Nala" from The Lion King and "Ariel" from The Little Mermaid that is a tribute of some sort.
Go Disney!
LONDON (AP) — A judge has awarded Heather Mills a total of $48.6 million in the financial settlement of her divorce from former Beatle Paul McCartney.
A document released by the Family Court says the judge awarded Mills a lump sum of $33 million plus assets she currently holds worth $15.6 million. Mills says she is "very happy" with the settlement.
NEW YORK (AP) — Halle Berry doesn't just play a mom in movies anymore.
The 41-year-old actress had a baby girl Sunday, and "is doing great," her publicist Meredith O'Sullivan told People.com, the Web site of People magazine. It is her first child.
The father is 32-year-old model Gabriel Aubry. The two met while shooting a Versace ad in Los Angeles two years ago.
Berry told Oprah Winfrey on her show last year that playing a mother in her latest movie, "Things We Lost in the Fire," helped convince her that motherhood was for her.
"I think it validated that I was meant to be a mother because every day I dealt with the character as a mother and thinking as a mother," Berry said. "It let me know that I must be a mother."
Berry won the best-actress Oscar for 2001's "Monster's Ball." She also won an Emmy and a Golden Globe for 1999's "Introducing Dorothy Dandridge."
Berry had said she and Aubry don't plan to marry, but feel fully committed to each other.
Oh the Joys of single parenting! Still no name announced for baby Berry-Aubrey.
Congrats Halle...but commitment without the benefit of marriage ... screams even less than 50% potential success. Although we admit.. Goldie and Kurt are the exception.
Toodles!
