Regis Philbin Brithday!

Today on 25 August is the day of anniversary of Regis Philbin
Regis Francis Xavier Philbin TV-talk show host, game-show host, singer, author, and TV personality, Regis Philbin became one of the most popular talk-show hosts in America and in Canada, especially. Growing up as an only child in The Bronx, New York, Philbin went to University of Notre Dame and got a degree in sociology. Later, he would serve the Navy and went through behind-the-scenes in radio and TV before going into broadcasting.
When moving to California, Philin got his own show on KGTV in San Diego called "That Regis Philbin Show" (1964).
It was then he got his first big break as Joey Bishop's sidekick on "The Joey Bishop Show" (1961). Bishop liked to tease Philbin. But the teasing stopped when Philbin walked off the stage on a live broadcast and stayed away for several days.
On the show, Cyndy Garvey was originally the co-host. However, when Philbin moved to New York City, they both paired up on "The Morning Show". But due to low ratings, Gravey then left once again and Philbin was then joined with Kathie Lee Gifford on the show and ratings improved and changed the name to "Live with Regis and Kathie Lee"(1989). Gifford left the show, which was called "Live with Regis" until a permanent replacement could be found.
During the search, Philbin won a Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Talk Show Host, his first only Daytime award. When Kelly Ripa was chosen the same year, the show was later changed to "Live with Regis and Kelly". The pairing became successful.
Besides being a successful TV host, Philbin was also a game show host on a short-lived game show called "The Neighbors" (1975), which part of the game is that a contestant, usually a woman, would have to find out which one of her neighbors is gossiping about her. He then hosted "Almost Anything Goes" (1975). Despite both shows were failures, Philbin then hosted "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire" (1999/I), which became one of the most popular shows on TV before it was canceled in 2002 and came back with Meredith Vieira replacing Philbin. For his work on the show, he won his second Daytime Emmy for Outstanding Game Show Host.
Philbin then signed a contract for "Millionaire's" spin-off: "Who Wants to Be a Super Millionaire" (2004). But this time instead of one million dollars, it's 10 million. However, the show was canceled within four months. However, Philbin's game show career didn't end there. As of November 2005, Philbin hosted the revival of ABC's _"This Is Your Life" (2006)_. As of May 2006, the show is in development.Also, Philbin hosted the first season of "America's Got Talent" (2006), with Piers Morgan, Brandy Norwood and David Hasselhoff as the judges.Besides being a TV personality, Philbin is also an author who has written two books: "I'm Only One Man!" and "Who Wants To Be Me?". He is also a singer, in the style of a crooner such as Frank Sinatra or Dean Martin.

Happy Birthday Regis Philbin!!

Michael’s cause of death: a dangerous amount of propofol

Two months after the singer’s tragic death, an unsealed search warrant has revealed that Michael Jackson had lethal levels of the powerful sedative propofol in his system as he took his last breath. According to the report, which became public in Houston today, the late pop star’s personal physician, Dr. Conrad Murray, told police that he gave his patient 50 mg of propofol through an IV every night for six weeks. The doctor added that he had administered a reduced dosage of 25 mg of the drug at 10:40 a.m. on the day of Michael’s death, which led to the King of Pop’s untimely demise of cardiac arrest on June 25. The document states that Michael had Valium, tamsulosin, lorazepam, temazepam, clonazepam, trazodone and tizanidine in his body as well.
The Jackson family was sad but not surprised to receive the results from the autopsy, and issued the following statement: “The Jackson family has full confidence in the legal process, and commends the ongoing efforts of the LA County Coroner, the LA District Attorney and the LA Police Department. The family looks forward to the day that justice can be served.”

Jay Leno's new NBC show means less Jay, more silly young comics

Jay Leno is still tinkering with the format behind his new 10 p.m. talk show that premieres next month. But viewers should get ready for one change: There'll probably be less Jay than on "The Tonight Show."
Leno told reporters during a press conference in Burbank today that "The Jay Leno Show" will still start with a monologue tied to the day's news, and he'll still have familiar segments like Jaywalking and weird headlines. But -- in lieu of the interviews that occupy most of "Tonight" and other late shows -- Leno will spend a lot of time highlighting taped pieces by younger comics such as D.L. Hughley, Liz Feldman and Mikey Day. It's an impresario-like function that Leno believes TV used to perform in the 1960s and '70s.
"I hope we can make some stars in this," Leno said. "I hope people become famous and get offered shows. If they replaced me with a guy we discovered, I mean, that would be great."
Early taped segments will include Feldman trying to teach seniors how to use Twitter and Hughley coming up with off-the-wall ideas to help rescue California from its financial woes.
"This is a way to use young comics in a new way," Leno said. "They essentially go out and they shoot the stand-up piece they're talking about."
Viewers may notice less Jay in another way too: The 59-year-old host says he's kept off about 10 pounds he lost this summer. He said he'd even finished off a two-mile run before heading over to the NBC lot to meet reporters.

Céline Dion Pregnant with Embryo Frozen for Eight Years

Céline Dion, now expecting her second child, is "very excited," says her doctor, Dr. Zev Rosenwaks, who performed the in vitro fertilization procedure that made the 41-year-old singer's pregnancy possible. When he called her earlier this week to say the pregnancy test was positive, "You could hear her chuckling," he says. "She was very happy. So was René. They are both very thankful."
Rosenwaks, director of the Ronald O. Perelman and Claudia Cohen Center for Reproductive Medicine at New York-Presbyerian Hospital/Weill Cornell Center Medical Center, implanted a embryo that had been kept frozen in liquid nitrogen for the past eight years. "She is very, very early in her pregnancy," says her doc.
Dion had her embryos frozen when she went through IVF while trying to conceive her first child, René-Charles, who was born in 2001. When she completed her performance run in Las Vegas in 2007, she consulted Rosenwaks about trying again. "She came back to have the embryos transferred back because she wanted to have another baby," he says.
According to the fertility specialist, freezing an embryo for eight years is not necessarily a problem. "There have been embryos that have been [frozen] for more than 10 years, and even more than 15 years, that have successfully thawed and resulted in a pregnancy," says Rosenwaks.
Meanwhile, the doctor says, "She is feeling well. So far, so good. I look forward to hearing the fetal heartbeat. René and Céline are both looking forward to pregnancy that is a healthy one." He adds, "There is no question she is ecstatic."
