Keeping secrets must be near impossible if you are a globally-known and loved popstar - for a start paparazzi follow you everywhere.
So when Rihanna decided to visit a sex shop in Paris this week after shooting her latest video, the world's media - not to mention her fans - went with her.
The 22-year-old spent time with the crowd outside the store in the French capital city, posing for pictures with them and chatting.

Earlier this week, Steve Jobs kicked the debate about the need for Flash into high gear, especially for Web video. As he explained, Apple products like the iPhone and iPad don’t support Flash because although 75 percent of video on the Web is in Flash ” almost all this video is also available in a more modern format, H.264, and viewable on iPhones, iPods and iPads.” The next day, Microsoft weighed in, saying that Internet Explorer 9 would only support the H.264 codec for HTML video.

Unsurprisingly, the chaps over at iFixit have already torn their brand new 3G iPad to shreds. There isn't anything insanely shocking in there (no visible "magic," though there is some fragmentary evidence of a "revolution"), but it's still a pretty interesting sight to behold. So, what's going on in there? Well, for starters, the 3G iPad has five antennas, including one that appears to take up the whole of the LCD frame, and one inside the Apple logo; it's also got the same baseband processor as both the WiFi iPad and the iPhone 3GS. There are plenty more tidbits to glean from the teardown, if you're into that sort of thing, so hit the source link if you're so inclined.

Show Luo performed in the first of three sold out shows at the Hong Kong coliseum yesterday. He pulled out every trick in his bag to wow his fangirls and they sure weren’t disappointed. The concert included a dance medley in which he channeled top female stars like A-Mei Chang, ELVA Hsiao and Jolin Tsai. He put in an extra amount of effort during “Dancing Diva”, as he flung his head and twisted his butt.
Stefanie Sun Yanzi was his special guest of the night. Show Luo complimented that she looks great in her light make-up, and also revealed his obsession over her toes. He looked at them and said, “It was love at first sight between us. Hello, long time no see!” Needless to say, Sun Yanzi was embarrassed.

Now this is what a weekend box office is supposed to look like. After last weekend’s sluggish performance from newcomers The Losers and The Back-Up Plan, it’s nice to have a new release with some heft to it. Such is the case with Nightmare on Elm Street. The R-rated remake of the popular Freddy Krueger slasher movie from the 1980s is destined for the top spot with what could be a $35+ million weekend. Starring Jackie Earle Haley, Nightmare grossed a solid $15 million on Friday night. That bodes well for horror fans. With an opening this strong, New Line Cinema must be thinking sequel options already.
Furry Vengeance had much more trouble seeking an audience Friday night. The other newcomer for the weekend starring Brendan Fraser grossed a paltry $1.7 million on Friday for a weekend take that could top out at a little over $6 million. The PG-rated family film is unlikely to make it into the top five for the frame and has done little to steer How to Train Your Dragon off its course. That film landed in second place on Friday. While far beneath the number one grosser with only $2.5 million, the 3-D flick still likely to add $11 million to its already full coffers.

It's hard to believe at first glance that this is the garish and outrageous Lady Gaga.
But on closer inspection, underneath that casual attire, the Telephone star is unmistakable.
The 24-year-old singer chose an unusually dressed-down outfit to go out for coffee on the day she was named the most important star in showbiz.
She left the rubber, lace and studs at home as U.S. magazine Time included her in the annual 100 'movers and shakers' list.
Her hair loose and unbrushed around her shoulders, she seemed a little taken aback as she was confronted by the cameras as she left the coffee shop with a friend on Thursday afternoon.

Windows 7

Windows 7 has been relatively well-received since its launch, but one of the key questions has been whether it will help Microsoft gain share against Apple, particularly in the U.S. consumer market. Microsoft says that last quarter's results show that is starting to happen.
"It was a key goal and a key accomplishment for the quarter...to gain share against Apple," Reller said. "Clearly we made some inroads with those key audiences."
Overall, IDC reported the U.S. PC market grew 24 percent last quarter, with Apple's share at 6.4 percent, down from 7 percent a year earlier. However, Gartner's preliminary figures have Apple gaining share to 8 percent of the market as compared to 7.2 percent a year ago. And Apple noted in its earnings report that overall Mac shipments grew 33 percent year-over-year in the first quarter.
In any case, Windows 7 is clearly being adopted faster than Vista, with Microsoft touting that the operating system is running on 1 in 10 Internet-connected PCs worldwide.

Rain has emerged as the star of the stars for album sales in April which was also called the month of ‘the war of the stars’.
According to HanTeo chart for the whole month of April on 1st May, Rain is up #1 with his special album ‘Back To the Basic’ released on 7th April. The album is #1 with a total of 29,107 album sales for the month, Rain has been promoting the 2 songs ‘Love Song’ and ‘Hip Song’ off the album on various music shows.
While Rain is #1 on the album sales chart, So Nyeo Shi Dae failed to achieve the usual album sales level despite the fact that they were doing very well on the chart with over 40K album sales in January, over 50K album sales in February and over 30K album sales in March. We see that this is possibly the negative effect received from the CheonAhn naval ship sinking.

Yesterday Ada Choi, Moses Chan, Kenny Wong and Queenie Chu attended the "Fly With Me" promotional event. They played rock climbing and jumping into canvas from the air. When Ada jumped into the canvas, she accidentally injured her nose. She was in so much pain that her tears immediately came rolling down, but she laughed: "Scraped my nose a little. (Then you'll have to get it fix?) Luckily I'm a natural born beauty, proves that my chin and nose are real!"
Speaking of Netizens saying that her acting in "Fly" is exaggerated, Ada explained: "I have heard people saying that, but there are also a lot of people that said they disliked my HK girl personality. I hope audience watch the series in a happy mood!" Ada also admitted that she's a HK girl herself: "I am a Hong Kong girl and was once a Miss Hong Kong representative! (What qualities do you have?) I am full of confidence, I just feel that I'm really good! (Are you not afraid of embarrassment?) Not to the point of not fair of embarrassment." Speaking of the series copying several movies and other series (committed "7 crimes"), Ada said: "Superheroes, if not male then it's a female, or if not cat then it's dog. As for this series, it talks about me as a "HK Girl" going out to bully the typical "HK Boy". I don't think my costume is a copy of Maggie Cheung's character in "Heroic Trio", we both have different elements."
“That is the sound of inevitability…“
