  1. Kim Asks For Donations Instead Of Gifts

    <strong><span style=&quot;font-family: 'Arial', 'sans-serif'; color: black;">Kim Kardashian</span></strong><span style="font-family: 'Arial', 'sans-serif'; color: black;"> has finally realized she already has plenty of everything, and what she doesn&rsquo;t have she can afford herself. According to TMZ, Kim and baby daddy <strong>Kanye West </strong>are asking friends and family not to send baby gifts, and instead donate money to the Lurie Children&rsquo;s Hospital in Chicago (Kanye is from Chicago). &nbsp;The hospital is thrilled by the gesture. &nbsp;"Ann &amp; Robert H. Lurie Children&rsquo;s Hospital of Chicago would like to extend its sincerest gratitude to Kim Kardashian and Kanye West for their thoughtfulness and support of the hospital,&rdquo; said a rep. &ldquo;Funds donated on behalf of Kardashian and West will be directed to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Fund which will help care for the most critically ill babies and their families." Meanwhile, Kim cut her Greek vacation short on Monday. The reality star was on a trip with her family, but left after Kanye sent a private plane to pick her up and take her to Paris, &nbsp;where he is currently working on his new album. Kim was apparently happy being whisked away, because she later tweeted, &ldquo;best day ever.&rdquo;</span>

  3. Taylor Visits 10 Year Old Cancer Patient

    <span style=&quot;font-size: small;">Tender-hearted country-pop superstar Taylor Swift fulfilled an ailing little girl&rsquo;s dream. The singer made a special visit to Omaha&rsquo;s Children&rsquo;s Hospital &amp; Medical Center to visit a young fan who&rsquo;s been battling cancer. 10-year-old Lauren Hacker is a patient at the facility, and her family and friends have been lobbying for her to meet Swift via a social media campaign. Swift became aware of Hacker&rsquo;s wish to meet her after seeing a YouTube video of her song &lsquo;You Belong With Me,&rsquo; with the lyrics changed to address the girl and her battle with acute myelogenous leukemia. &ldquo;Taylor Swift stopped by Lauren&rsquo;s room at the hospital around 1PM in the afternoon,&rdquo; Hacker&rsquo;s father posted on their family blog (quote via Gossip Cop). &ldquo;She spent about an hour chatting with Lauren &hellip; [who] played a song on the electronic piano keyboard that she got for her birthday.&rdquo; &ldquo;Taylor was very impressed,&rdquo; he added, saying the singer &ldquo;shared stories from her childhood as she was getting her start as an entertainer and she told us all about the special stage designs of her new show.&rdquo; &ldquo;Just before she had to leave, Taylor got out a bag of goodies for Lauren and provided autographs on notebooks, photographs and guitar picks,&rdquo; he shared. &ldquo;It was a great afternoon for everyone and I&rsquo;m sure Lauren will remember it for many years to come.&rdquo; Of course, Swift has a longstanding reputation for helping kids with health struggles. Last year she wrote a special song in memory Ronan Thompson, 3, who died of a neuroblastoma. Swift performed &lsquo;Ronan&rsquo; at the televised &lsquo;Stand Up to Cancer&lsquo; telethon.</span>

  23. Etta James Dead at 73

    Etta James, one of the great voices of the 20th century who fused R&amp;B with gospel and blues, and scored landmark hits with &quot;At Last," "Tell Mama" and "All I Could Do Was Cry," died today from complications related to leukemia. She was 73. James had been battling health problems for many years. James had an enormously turbulent personal life with numerous periods of drug addiction and poverty, but she channeled all of that heartache into her music. "There's a lot going on Etta James' voice," Bonnie Raitt told Rolling Stone in 2008. "A lot of pain, a lot of life, most of all, a lot of strength. She can be so raucous and down one song, and then break your heart with her subtlety and finesse the next. As raw as Etta is, there's a great intelligence and wisdom in her singing." Born Jamesetta Hawkins in Los Angeles in 1938, James was largely abandoned by her teenage mother at a young age, and was raised by her grandparents and foster families. She formed the the doo-wop singing group Creolettes with her friends in the early 1950s, and they even scored a minor hit with "Roll Me Henry" in 1955. James signed as a solo act to Chess Records in 1960, kicking off the first great period of her long career. Working with producers Harvey Fuqua and Ralph Bass, she landed on the charts with "My Dearest Darling" and "All I Could Do Is Cry." Leonard Chess heard tremendous potential in her voice, and in 1961 had her record the ballad "At Last" with a string section. The song became a massive hit, and remained her signature song for the rest of her career. Despite her incredible success, James started to use heroin in the mid-1960s and it began to have serious effects on her career. At various points she was committed to a Los Angeles psychiatric hospital, though she still occasionally scored hits &ndash; most notable the R&amp;B classic "Tell Mama" in 1967. In the 1970s, James hit the club circuit to support herself. The Rolling Stones took her on tour in 1978, which exposed her music to a whole new generation of rock fans. That same year she signed to Warner Brothers and cut the classic LP Deep in the Night with Jerry Wexler. Her drug habit resumed in the 1980s, but a 1988 stay at the Betty Ford Clinic set her on a much better course. She was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994. James continued to tour until illness sidelined her a couple of years ago. She made headlines in 2009 when she criticized Beyonc&eacute;'s performance of "At Last" at President Obama's inauguration, but the public didn't realize that she was suffering from dementia at that point. In 1997, James spoke with Rolling Stone about her life. "Life's been rough," she said. "But life's been good. If I had to go back and do it all over again, I would live it the exact same way."
