Bigg Boss OTT: Ridhi Dogra Reacts To Ex-Husband Raqesh-Shamita’s Growing Fondness & Kashmera Shah’s Tweet
Bigg Boss OTT has been in the news since its inception, thanks to contestants. The show had grabbed headlines for Raqesh Bapat and Shamita Shetty's growing fondness. Recently, Raqesh's sister had reacted to the same. Even Shamita's mother called him 'gentleman in the house'. Now, the actor's ex-wife Ridhi Dogra has reacted to it. When Ridhi was asked about Raqesh and Shamita's bond, she was quoted by TOI as saying, "I am happy if Raqesh is happy. It's his personal space." Ridhi revealed that she spoke to Raqesh two days before he entered the Bigg Boss house. She said that she was suprised when he told that he was doing the show, as he is not the kind of person that we see on the show.

Mirage
Fleetwood Mac boasts the rarest of chart-topping, adult-oriented rock virtues — a group personality. In the three-part harmonies and the assured snap of the rhythm section, we hear five distinct personalities merge into a sound that is unmistakably Mac. On Mirage , Lindsey Buckingham once again reaches into his bag of magicianly production tricks and pulls out an elusive gem of a Fleetwood Mac record that, to borrow some lines from his own “Can’t Go Home,” has “a face as soft as a tear in a clown’s eye.” “Can’t Go Home” would sound comfortable in a music box. As with most of Buckingham’s tunes, we’re hooked before the first word. The melody is sprung from beat one as vibes and guitar play tag atop John McVie’s ticktocking bass, and just when you expect it, Mick Fleetwood’s snare drum locks the machinery into gear. Fleetwood and McVie, rock’s classiest rhythm section, know how to make the simple sublime. Fleetwood Mac, a vocal group with a beat, doesn’t scrimp on harmonies. …
Scott Thorson, Last Living Wonderland Murders Witness, Is Finally Free
In the early hours of July 1st, 1981, for the umpteenth time in his life, Scott Thorson found himself in the wrong place at the wrong time. Specifically, he was at a drug kingpin’s house when the man gave the order for one of Los Angeles’ most infamous mass killings: the Wonderland murders , where four people were beaten to death in a house in Laurel Canyon. At 62, Thorson has had a fever-dream of a life so far, bizarre in more ways than most people would care to fathom. He is perhaps best-known as Liberace ’s former lover. Matt Damon played him opposite Michael Douglas in the 2013 HBO movie Behind the Candelabra , based on Thorson’s tell-all book by the same name about his relationship with the famous pianist. He’s seen some things. Today, Thorson is the last person alive with firsthand knowledge of the notorious massacre, at least among those who are willing to admit to it. He is also a newly free man, speaking to Rolling Stone from Las Vegas in his first interview …

The Rhinestone Closet
“Disgusting is in the eyes of the disgusting ,” Michael Douglas declares as Liberace , and that’s the kind of showbiz philosophy that made Liberace an American legend. In Steven Soderbergh’s new HBO film, Behind the Candelabra , the Vegas entertainer makes his grand entrance onstage, playing his mirror-tiled piano for an audience of adoring blue-haired old ladies who have no idea he’s gay. He peacocks in all his Seventies finery – glitter in his hair, a rhinestone-studded silver suit and as much jewelry as human fingers can hold. “Stare as long as you want,” he tells the fans. “You paid for it!” Liberace would be delighted to know that people still know his name. Virtually nobody born since the Fifties has ever heard his records, yet the name Liberace stands for the gaudy essence of pop artifice. Everybody knows what it means when Dr. Dre boasts, “Diamonds shining, looking like I robbed Liberace.” Video: Matt Damon Launches Bathroom Strike for Clean Water …
